That’s how it is…”
On the side, Li Yajun had already told Xu Xin what had happened.
Xu Xin frowned tightly.
"Is it really Yingying...?"
…
An hour ago.
Just an hour before the sun broke through the eastern horizon and Crystal City rose from the ground to the surface, a girl emerged from the jungle and came to the foot of his tree house.
She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and tight trousers, and she didn't even carry a backpack.
At that time, she was already sweating profusely in the scorching heat. After all, even in the middle of the night when the sun had not yet risen, the temperature was already over 40 degrees Celsius.
Because she was a single girl with nothing on her, and she looked somewhat familiar, in short, a little friendly, so Li Wenxi pulled her up to the tree house.
As a result, the first words the girl said when she came in stunned Li Wenxi and Li Yajun beside her.
"Sister-in-law, I came to see you while my brother is away!"
The girl's body was completely soaked in sweat, sticking to her body, and the hair on her forehead kept dripping down with sweat, but she looked in good condition. She was not flushed by the heat or in low spirits, and she had a smile on her face.
But what she said was really confusing.
"Sister-in-law? Me?" Li Wenxi pointed at herself in confusion.
The girl shivered slightly and rubbed her arms. "The temperature in your room is so low... It's you. You are my sister-in-law, because Xu Xin is my brother!"
"Of course you're cold coming in all sweaty... huh? Huh?" Li Wenxi was about to get her a long-sleeved shirt when she heard her say that. Her eyes widened. "What? You're Xu Xin's sister?"
Li Yajun, who was standing by, opened her mouth slightly, speechless with surprise: "Xu Xin... has a sister?"
"Well...yes." Li Wenxi was stunned for two seconds, then nodded slowly.
She knew that Xu Xin had a younger sister. After all, they slept together every night, and some things she found out naturally during their casual chat.
And at this moment, she finally understood why she felt so close to this girl.
This girl has the shadow of Xu Xin.
Now that you mention it, it does look like Xu Xin!
However, she didn't believe it outright. Instead, she looked at the girl in front of her with some suspicion. She handed her a towel and said, "Are you really Xu Xin's sister? What's your name?"
"Xu Ying, you should know this, right?" Xu Ying took the towel and wiped the sweat off her body, then let out a long sigh.
Li Yajun looked at Li Wenxi, and Li Wenxi nodded slightly.
The name she heard from Xu Xin was indeed Xu Ying.
"Um...what university does your brother attend?"
"It's xx University!"
"Which high school did you attend?"
"XX City XX High School!"
"Hmm... Then there's more..."
Despite being asked many questions, Xu Ying did not get annoyed and responded actively to Li Wenxi's questions.
"Are you really Yingying?" Li Wenxi finally confirmed it, her face filled with shock, a mixture of joy and worry. "Is it really you? You...you're a survivor from the outer zone? How did you find your way here?"
She was really surprised.
Xu Xin had also said when they were chatting before that fortunately his sister was not yet 18 years old and would not come with them. If that girl had come, with her personality, she probably would not live long.
As a result, she actually met Xu Ying here? !
This shouldn't be the case...
"Ah, I..." This time Xu Ying did not answer the question immediately, but her eyes wandered a little, as if she was considering how to say it, "It's like this, actually I..."
She suddenly stopped talking.
She glanced at Li Yajun, who was standing nearby, looking bewildered by the situation. Then she turned to Li Wenxi and said, "Sister-in-law, let's talk alone. I came here for this very reason."
"...Am I disturbing you?" Li Yajun spoke at this time, her brows slightly frowned. "You just arrived, and you want to be alone with one of us? How can we trust you?"
Li Wenxi also nodded slightly: "Yingying, perhaps you should first tell us where you are from and how you found yourself here."
Indeed, even though she was basically certain in her heart that the girl in front of her was Xu Xin's biological sister, Xu Ying.
But Li Wenxi could not guarantee that Xu Ying and Xu Xin were of the same mind.
This Xu Ying was really strange. She didn't even have a backpack, and she was just wearing a short-sleeved shirt and long pants. How did she get here?
Moreover, Xu Ying didn't say anything and just wanted to be alone with her. This kind of thing was not allowed even if she was Xu Xin's sister.
"Ah... I just want to talk to you alone." Xu Ying touched her head with some trouble. With a turn of her eyes, she grabbed Li Wenxi's hand and ran to the other side of the room.
Li Yajun wanted to follow, but Xu Ying stopped her, saying, "Just watch from over there. Give me a word!"
As she spoke, she whispered something softly in Li Wenxi's ear.
Li Wenxi frowned slightly at her soft whisper, then his eyes slowly widened.
Li Yajun wanted to go over immediately upon seeing this, but Li Wenxi raised his hand to stop her.
The expression on her face was one of growing surprise.
"What did you say?! You..." Li Wenxi was about to scream when Xu Ying immediately covered her mouth with her hand, her expression a little panicked. "Don't say it! You can't let anyone know!"
