green apple flavor
Wen Zhili thought to himself that if his sister got a boyfriend one day, he would be the one who suffered the most.
Her sister is incomparably important to her.
In fact, Wen Yan knew that they were not biological sisters, and Wen Zhili would remember the day when the truth was revealed for the rest of her life.
That year, Wen Yan was 5 years old.
It happened that his parents were at home resting that day, so Wen Zhili took little Wen Yan to the children's playground downstairs in the community to play.
There was an old man sitting downstairs. His surname was Huang. He happened to be their neighbor, living in the same building with his daughter and son-in-law. He had lived there for more than ten years.
Old Man Huang knew them both, called them over and gave each of them a lollipop.
Wen Yan’s is green apple flavored, and Wen Zhili’s is lemon flavored.
"Thank you, Grandpa Huang."
Wen Zhili spoke with Xiao Wenyan.
Xiao Wenyan looked at her sister's lollipop, then at her own. She knew her sister liked green apples. But her sister didn't seem to have any objections. Should she suggest a change?
Seeing her like this, the old man misunderstood and thought that Xiao Wenyan wanted both lollipops.
Seeing that there were no adults around, he smiled and said nonchalantly:
"Your parents will give you their money from now on. Don't fight with your sister for a lollipop."
Xiao Wenyan didn't understand.
"Grandpa Huang, why do you say that all my parents' money will be given to me?"
"Because your sister is not your parents' biological daughter. They bought her from the mountains. Don't you know?"
"Not a biological child," "in the mountains," "buy," little Wen Yan had already learned many phrases under her sister's guidance. Now, with a quick thought, even if she didn't fully understand the sentence, she roughly grasped its meaning.
In other words, Wen Zhili is not her biological sister, nor is she her parents' biological daughter.
She stared at her sister blankly.
Wen Zhili bit her lip, her palms swollen from pinching her hands behind her back.
At that time, she was not thinking about her parents' money.
She was afraid that Wen Yan would no longer treat her as a sister.
The next second, Xiao Wenyan frowned, his cheeks puffed up with anger. He said that Grandpa Huang was talking nonsense, and pulled Wen Zhili home.
As soon as she got home, she pulled her parents into the living room to question them and repeated what Old Man Huang had said.
Wen Zhili sat on another sofa next to him, with his eyes downcast and not speaking a word.
After hearing what Wen Yan said, Wen Jie and Lu Wanqing looked at each other silently and sighed.
I originally wanted to wait until Wen Yan grew up before telling her, but now that things have come to this, I can no longer hide it.
So they told little Wen Yan everything about the charity in the mountains, Wen Zhili's original family, and the two hundred yuan transaction.
Little Wenyan listened with a confused look, and seemed to understand in a trance that her sister had a difficult childhood.
My parents added, "That old man Huang is wrong. Mom and Dad's money will be divided equally between the two of you. Don't bully your sister because of what happened today. Got it? Mom and Dad love you, and we love your sister too."
Xiao Wenyan looked at her sister.
Wen Zhili felt his gaze and raised his head to meet hers, with a probing look in his eyes - what about you?
Yanyan, do you still love your sister?
Little Wenyan ran up to her, took out the green apple-flavored lollipop from his pocket, and stuffed it into his sister's hand.
"Don't worry, sister. Yanyan loves you very, very much too. I love you more than mom and dad combined!"
If loving you is a competition, then I want to come out on top.
"Sister, I will give you more delicious snacks in the future." This is the most common way for children to express their love.
Start with this green apple flavored lollipop.
"Thank you Yanyan." Wen Zhili's smile was like rippling water. She tore open the lollipop wrapper and put it into her mouth.
The green sweetness is tinged with a slight sourness.
It lingers for a long time and cannot be forgotten.
…
During lunch, Shen Guangxi talked to Wen Yan about Li Hao.
"Hey, he definitely likes you. Even though he's just average looking. At least he's not ugly, and he's an athlete! If he confesses his feelings to you, will you reject him?"
Wen Yan shook his head.
"I don't like him."
Shen Guangxi was puzzled. At this age, most of the students around him already had or had someone they liked.
Wen Yan didn't have that. Even though she was cute and pretty, and it was obvious that many boys had some affection for her, she still acted like she had no interest in love.
Shen Guangxi teased her casually: "Why are you not interested in boys at all? Do you like girls?"
Unexpectedly, this sentence was like prying away a small stone that was pressing on a certain area of her heart, causing Wen Yan's hand holding the chopsticks to pause.
Seeing her like this, Shen Guangxi's smile froze on his face.
"You...what are you doing? Do you really like girls?"
Wen Yan recalled the extremely absurd thought that only appeared for a moment.
She raised her eyes cautiously and looked at Shen Guangxi.
"Do you... know what it's like to like a girl?"
"I don't know. My sister is straight."
"Oh." Wen Yan felt bored and continued to eat.
The more Shen Guangxi thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He asked her in a low voice, "Do you really like girls? Do you have a girl you like? Don't worry, I'm not homophobic."
"No, I'm just curious. I don't have a crush on any girl."
"Um... the feeling of liking a girl should be the same as the feeling of liking a boy, right? I want to be with him every day and share good things with him."
This was the second time Wen Yan heard this sentence, and her heart was beating as fast as a drum.
"Also, her mood brightens when she sees him, and her eyes always want to follow him. She easily experiences mood swings because of him, and she also has some childish possessiveness towards him."
It matches, it seems everything matches.
Seeing Wen Yan lowering his head and his face getting redder and redder, Shen Guangxi narrowed his eyes sharply.
"Hey, Wen Yan, are you... not sure if you have feelings for a girl?"
Wen Yan pursed her lips and nodded, but no matter how Shen Guangxi asked who that person was, she refused to speak again.
Shen Guangxi slumped down in his seat in frustration. "Hey, let me give you a tip. Go check it out, and in exchange, tell me when you're done. Okay?"
Wen Yan nodded.
"They're all girls anyway. Go kiss that girl on the face and see if your heartbeat speeds up. If you feel your heartbeat speed up and you like it, it means you have physical desire for her, and you like her."
Physical desire.
Wen Yan thought of the embarrassing peck in the car that morning, and her heart trembled slightly.
Do you like girls?
But no matter what, Wen Zhili is still her sister. It's impossible for her to like her own sister, right?
...Never mind, let’s give it a try first.
With this thought in mind, Wen Yan could not find an opportunity to repeat his old trick.
A gentle sister, a caring sister, a sister who obeys me in everything.
How could I feel at ease kissing her with such dirty thoughts and desecrating such a good sister?
The May Day holiday is almost here, but Wen Yan has not taken any action yet.
One day, Wen Zhili asked Wen Yan on the way home: "Qin Zhen said he would take you to the aquarium with me on May Day. Do you want to go?"
Qin Zhen was Wen Zhili's classmate in high school and the only person she could truly call a "close friend" over the years. He currently studies mechanical engineering at the University of Science and Technology.
"Okay, but why the oceanarium?"
Wen Zhili winked at her, his tone a little playful, "She was originally going to go with her boyfriend, but they broke up a few days ago. She didn't want to see her planned trip go to waste, so she insisted on taking us along."
aquarium.
The online dating paradise for couples...
Wen Yan secretly felt anticipation.
After parking the car in the underground garage, Wen Zhili suddenly remembered that he was running out of paper towels at home.
"Yanyan, I'm going to the neighborhood convenience store to buy some toilet paper. Why don't you go home and take a shower first?"
"Okay." Wen Yan answered obediently.
Wen Zhili smiled and pinched her face, "Okay, go up."
When Wen Zhili walked out of the convenience store with the paper she had bought, a boy suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Haodong, what's wrong?"
This is the child of their neighbor, the Sun family, who is the same age as Wen Yan. The two families usually have some interactions during festivals.
Sun Haodong blushed, lowered his head, and timidly handed over a pink envelope: "This... Sister Zhili, can you give it to Wen Yan for me?"
Wen Zhili looked at the shy boy in front of him and smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"Haodong, you're writing to Yanyan again. Didn't I tell you before that Yanyan just wants to focus on her studies now?"
The boy lowered his head and muttered softly, "Sister Zhili, I don't mean anything else, it's just...Wen Yan is...very cute. So I still want to be friends with her..."
Wen Zhili's eyes darkened when she heard this. In the end, she accepted the envelope and simply patted Sun Haodong's shoulder as they passed by.
"Study hard, Haodong."
…
After going upstairs, Wen Zhili opened the door and saw his sister standing at the door with a sweet smile on her face.
"Sister, you're back."
Wen Zhili rubbed her head, and Wen Yan squinted her eyes comfortably, a bit like a little animal waiting for its owner to come home and get a reward.
"What are you doing here? Go take a shower."
"Waiting for you to come home, don't you like it?"
"like."
Wen Yan moved sideways to let Wen Zhili in, then obediently took the tissue from her hand.
"Can you put the tissues in the cabinet for me? I'll go back to my room."
"Why are you in such a hurry to go back to your room?"
Wen Zhili gently touched the tip of her nose with his index finger.
"Don't meddle in adults' affairs."
Wen Yan puffed her cheeks in dissatisfaction and muttered, "He's obviously not much older than me..." After that, she obediently went to put the tissues away.
Wen Zhili walked into her room and opened the bottom drawer of her bedside table. There were already three pink envelopes inside. She took out the previous one from her bag and put it in there too.
It would be a lie to say that I don't feel guilty at all.
She took a deep breath and finally closed the drawer.
It would be better for her Yanyan to study hard.
