"I miss Brother Nan so much. I wonder if he misses me too."
"well…"
Just as Qin Jue was feeling down, he heard what Xiao Liyan said again.
Seeing Xiao Liyan's slightly disappointed expression, Xiao Shida laughed and said, "Sister, you're wronging Brother Nan."
"Brother Nan always brings you gifts after he comes back from his trips. He treats you even better than Xiao Mo."
"You!"
As she spoke, Xiao Liyan ruffled Xiao Shida's hair, "Brother Nan is very good to you too."
Yes, yes, yes.
Walking beside Xiao Liyan, Qin Jue watched Xiao Liyan and Xiao Shida playfully bickering, and for some reason felt a little displeased with the "Brother Nan" that Xiao Liyan mentioned.
There were also some people who were jealous of Xiao Liyan calling him "Brother Nan".
"You two rascals can go out and play by yourselves, but why did you bring that young master along?"
"Don't you know that their injuries haven't fully healed yet?"
Hearing these two sentences, Xiao Liyan and Xiao Shida, who were playfully fighting, looked up and saw their father. The two of them ran straight to him.
Mr. Xiao reached out and patted Xiao Liyan's head, then reached out and gave Xiao Shida a light tap on the head.
Xiao Shida winced in pain, clutching his head and looking at his father with resentment. "Dad, why did you only hit me?!"
Ignoring Xiao Shida, Xiao's father bent down and picked up Xiao Liyan, "Come on, shall Daddy carry Yuanyuan and fly back?"
"Mmm," Xiao Liyan nodded vigorously.
After Xiao Liyan nodded, her father immediately carried her and used his light-footed skills to head towards the inn.
Xiao Shida, who remained where he was, glanced at Qin Jue, sighed, and spoke in a resentful tone.
"well……"
"Brother Qin, let's walk back slowly..."
"Hmm," Qin Jue responded faintly, and walked towards the inn with Xiao Shida.
Back at the inn, Qin Jue sat on a stool, holding the clay figurine, and slowly thought back to the afternoon.
"Wow--"
"Brother Qin Jue, this clay figure looks just like you! It's so beautiful!"
Xiao Liyan looked at the clay figure in her hands from all angles, then felt a pang of regret.
"Sigh, it's a pity it's all the color of mud. It would be nice if the clothes on the mud figures had color too."
"That would definitely look even better!!!"
Lost in thought, Qin Jue picked up the clay figure, got up, walked to the bedside, and placed it beside his pillow.
"Sister, are you really not going to say goodbye to Brother Qin?"
Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Shida lifted the curtain, looked at the inn in front of him, turned his head, and asked Xiao Liyan.
"No, farewells are always heartbreaking. Besides, we told Brother Qin a few days ago that we would be leaving in the next few days."
Xiao Liyan also looked towards the inn.
"We thought Brother Qin Jue would come with us, but he refused. I don't know how he'll live alone..."
After saying that, Xiao Liyan stopped looking at the inn.
"Sister, maybe we'll have a chance to see Brother Qin Jue again in the future."
"Besides, Brother Qin Jue said that his injury last time was just an accident, and he's preparing to go back to his own home."
Xiao Liyan nodded upon hearing Xiao Shida's words.
"drive--"
After Xiao's father got into the carriage, Uncle Hong drove it away.
"I hope Brother Qin Jue likes the gift I gave him."
Mr. Xiao patted Xiao Liyan's head.
After Qin Jue woke up in the morning, he got up, sat on a stool, and drank two glasses of water. He still didn't see Xiao Liyan and Xiao Shida come to find him as usual, and a vague guess began to form in his mind.
Qin Jue put down her cup, walked out of the room, went downstairs, walked to the counter, and asked the shopkeeper who was doing the accounts, "Boss, have they left?"
"Yes, Young Master Xiao said he would tell you after you got up, but I didn't expect you to come down first."
After hearing this, Qin Jue's guess was indeed correct.
"Young master, this is the purse Young Master Xiao gave you. This is from Miss Xiao."
The shopkeeper took out a money pouch and a brocade box and handed them to Qin Jue.
"Also, Young Master Xiao has paid your room fee for this month."
Qin Jue held what he was holding, gave a faint "hmm," and then went upstairs.
Once inside the room, Qin Jue opened the brocade box and was stunned to find a painted clay figure inside, a reflection of himself.
After a while, it was carefully placed into the brocade box.
