Of course, as a dragon cub, Xiao An actually eats very well and is in great health, with no problems at all.
Therefore, Helian Min did not find any discomfort in her body caused by eating when he took her pulse.
After finishing their meal and returning to Yujinwan, Xiao Anman, full and satisfied, fell asleep in the car.
When Gu Tingxiao carried her out of the car, Xiao An, sensing the movement, opened her eyes groggily.
Then, in the next instant, she turned her head and looked around, as if she were looking for someone.
“Your brother Helian wants to go back to his own home.”
That's pretty much all the treatment an older brother can receive, right?
Gu Tingxiao saw the disappointment on Xiao Anman's face when she couldn't find Helian Min, and he truly felt Xiao Anman's affection for Helian Min.
She wasn't someone who easily showed her emotions, so it was rare for Xiao Anman to care so much about her.
"Daddy, won't my brother come to stay with us?"
"That depends on whether he's willing or not."
The affairs of the Helian family are unlike those of ordinary aristocratic families.
This is a family of doctors; there are countless rules and traditions passed down from our ancestors.
"Would my brother object?"
Xiao Anman leaned on Gu Tingxiao's shoulder, gazing at Helian Min's house next door, wondering when her brother Helian would move in.
“An’an can ask Brother Helian herself tomorrow.”
Gu Tingxiao's fingers gently combed through her soft hair, his eyes filled with indulgent affection.
"Awoo~"
Xiao An bit her little hand, indicating that she would definitely go back and ask tomorrow.
After all that trouble, we finally got home. Xiao Anman fell asleep almost as soon as she touched her pillow.
This tiny little girl, with her small arms and legs, was sleeping there obediently, and Gu Tingxiao didn't even think about her identity.
And what if Xiao Anman undergoes drastic changes in the future, different from what she is now?
He kissed the sleeping little angel, then turned off the light and left the room.
The matter at the police station is not truly over yet; the person who was arrested is not the one who actually kidnapped Xiao Anman.
He needs to resolve this safety hazard as soon as possible.
...
"Young lady? Young lady? Where are you going?"
After a good night's sleep, Xiao Anman, full of energy, got dressed in the morning and the first thing she did was run downstairs.
Gu Tingxiao went out in the morning, leaving only An'an, the young mistress, in the vast Gu residence.
So when Xiao An ran downstairs, there was basically no obstruction.
After all, everyone in the Gu family can see how much Mr. Gu values Xiao Anman.
Daddy's not home...
After pacing around the living room, An'an, wearing a light green dress, paused for a moment to think before running out the door again.
The destination was the Helian family's house next door.
Perhaps because children are the most flexible, the servants, seeing that they couldn't stop Xiao Anman, twisted her little body and passed through the fence.
Such a small gap is impossible for an adult to squeeze through unless they have superhuman flexibility.
"elder brother?"
Unlike the well-organized house managed by the Gu family, Helian Min's house, although the same size, did not house as many people as the Gu family's.
In early summer, the trees are green and the flowers are white, creating a pleasant scene.
The pale-skinned boy, dressed in thin clothes, sat on the windowsill of his second-floor bedroom. He had been sitting there for an unknown amount of time, and glistening dewdrops had formed on the ends of his hair.
Little Anman stood outside, waving her little hand to greet him: "Brother Helian, I'm here!"
However, Helian Min could not hear.
His world had been silent for so long that it had become a habit.
After calling her several times, Xiao An realized that her brother was ignoring her.
The gate to Helian Min's house was open. Xiao Anman glanced at it, wondering if his brother would not let him in.
Hmm, let's go in and try it out first.
Xiao An wrinkled her little nose and gave herself a pep talk.
We should go inside first and then talk.
Because the two houses had similar structures, Xiao Anman found Helian Min's location without much effort.
"Brother, brother~"
Pushing open the bedroom door, which was partially ajar, Xiao An met Helian Min without any trouble.
The light gray curtains covered half of the white-haired boy's body, hiding him in the gray shadows, while the rising sun outside made the side of him facing the light shine brightly.
Suddenly, a little bundle of milk appeared in Helian Min's line of sight.
It was her, and it could only be her, the cub that had been frequently appearing in his world recently.
Unlike Helian Min, Xiao Anman immediately noticed the blue flower tucked inside the notebook that was open in front of Helian Min.
It's a blue iris, I think it's the one she gave to her brother.
So it really was taken back by my brother.
The bad mood she felt from being scolded by her brother had vanished. Xiao An, wearing her white sneakers, scurried up to Helian Min.
"Brother, let's go get some steamed buns together!"
Because Xiao An really likes them, the Gu family always has these small pearl buns for breakfast.
She heard her father say yesterday that her brother is home alone now.
There was no one to take care of her brother, and she could tell that he didn't like to eat.
She thought of it when she woke up in the morning.
It would be best to bring her brother over today so he can eat with her and her dad. That way, she'll have a reason to keep him at home.
She's such a clever little devil!
Her pink and delicate appearance resembled the first hibiscus bud on a branch in the early morning. Like a tender little flower bud, she was a girl who, even if she did nothing, would attract the attention of the light.
Helian Min woke up from a nightmare last night and couldn't fall back asleep. There were still bloody marks on his knuckles from self-harm.
Some people cannot accept the fact that they are a monster, so they are always repeating futile and useless self-struggles.
But some people are different. They know what kind of quagmire they are trapped in, and they let decay engulf them without any intention of self-redemption. Yet, ironically, the latter suffer a hundred times more than the former.
They watched with clear-headedness as their world rotted away inch by inch, and the pain they endured was far beyond what the former could compare to.
Helian Min was the latter.
But when Xiao Anman's fair and delicate face came closer, and her soft little hand touched the back of his hand...
The roaring waves that threatened to engulf him, all those menacing things that wanted to devour his world and consume him, all vanished from his mind.
Her arrival dispelled all the gloom.
It caused the ice and snow on his body to melt away, and he transformed back into a refined and noble young man.
Helian Min pulled out a piece of candy from somewhere and handed it to Xiao Anman.
It's... really amazing. Anyway, Xiao An couldn't figure out where he came from.
