Tang Xiaoxiao then retracted her gaze and looked at Gu Luo. When their eyes met, they saw each other's reflections in each other's eyes. She nodded slowly:
"good."
Gu Luo smiled slightly and asked, "How is it? Have you had a good time these past two days?"
“It’s happier than at home.”
"That's good. The sisters all like you very much. You are welcome to come and stay with us anytime."
"good."
After a brief chat, Gu Luo got up and went to the kitchen to help.
Tang Xiaoxiao looked at her sisters chattering and eating snacks in the living room, and her emotions gradually calmed down.
Noticing the gaze coming from the balcony, Gu Ximan immediately came over with a bag of cucumber-flavored potato chips, squatted beside Tang Xiaoxiao, and said softly:
"Here, eat some chips."
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoman." Tang Xiaoxiao took the potato chips and thanked her politely.
"So good." Gu Ximan helped her adjust her skirt and said in a gentler voice, "Xiaoxiao, I was in very poor health when I was little. I had to be hospitalized all the time."
As he spoke, he pointed to his heart and said, "And here, I almost passed through the gates of hell several times."
"Really, I was really scared at the time. I was afraid that once I opened my eyes, I would never see my stinky brother and dad again."
Tang Xiaoxiao listened quietly and asked, "How is Sister Xiaoman's health now?"
"It's much better than when I was a child, but I still need to go to the hospital for regular checkups." Gu Ximan paused and scratched her head awkwardly.
"Well... I'm a bit clumsy and not very good at comforting people... I want to express something, but I don't know how to say it..."
At this point in the conversation, the two fell silent.
After a while, Tang Xiaoxiao opened the bag of potato chips, picked up a chip with her fingers and brought it to Gu Ximan's mouth, saying softly, "Sister Xiaoman is very gentle."
Gu Ximan opened her mouth to catch the potato chips, squinting her eyes with a smile, chewing while chuckling, "This is the first time someone has praised me for being gentle. They all said I was too naive."
"Xiaoxiao, just because of what you said, Sister Man will protect you from now on. Don't sleep with Sister Ling at night. Sleep with Sister Man and be Sister Man's little pillow, okay?"
Tang Xiaoxiao blinked her long, curled eyelashes:
"Yeah, okay."
An hour later, after dinner, Gu Ximan volunteered to help Tang Xiaoxiao take a bath, and then carried the sweet-smelling little sister to her bedroom.
Luo Shuling couldn't help but sigh:
"Ah... Xiao Man is so cute."
Lu Xuexue covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yes, Manman is cute and kind."
They all knew that this was Gu Ximan's regret and attempt to make amends because she had not noticed Tang Xiaoxiao's unusual behavior in the first place.
How cute.
"Little idiots are usually cute." Luo Shuhe gave the same evaluation. After that, he did not leave the room, but went to Luo Shuning's bedroom.
Knocked on the door three times gently.
"Come in."
When Luo Shuning saw that the person coming was Luo Shuhe, she smiled, picked up the scarf that was already half knitted from under the quilt, and continued knitting.
Luo Shuhe raised an eyebrow: "Sister is really curmudgeonly."
"You gave me the first suit, so why don't you let me give you the first scarf?" Luo Shuning smiled and pointed to the ball of yarn beside her: "Don't worry, you, Shuling, Xiaoman, Xuexue, and Xiaoxiao all have a share."
"I'll give it to you when it gets cold."
Luo Shuhe was silent for a moment, then sat down on the edge of the bed, carefully examining her sister, who looked very similar to her but had a completely different personality.
After a long time, he slowly said, "Sister, let me tell you a joke that I think is funny."
