As Lu Jiayan watched An Wan hug Lu Zhili, he also longed for her embrace.
As if sensing Lu Jiayan's thoughts, she turned around and suddenly gave Lu Zhili a hug after he stopped crying.
"Fourth brother, I'm your sister too, so you're my brothers now. I'll protect you. Thank you for giving me this family and for being so good to me."
Thank you, Brother Jiayan, for doing so much for me in my past life.
This time, it's my turn to protect you and take care of you.
I will never be cowardly again.
An Wan's eyes were blurry with tears as she desperately held them back, not wanting Lu Jiayan to notice anything unusual about her.
After all, she is still only a five-year-old girl.
She genuinely liked Lu Jiayan and Lu Zhili, and only they truly accepted her into this family.
Instead of rejecting themselves like Lu Jingxing and Lu Yanshu.
Even though they did nothing wrong.
If it were her, she might have done the same thing.
Therefore, she didn't dislike them.
"Little sister? Then I'll call you little sister from now on, okay?" Leaving An Wan's embrace, Lu Jiayan looked at her thin and bony figure, and felt even more distressed.
Given the family's current situation, are her parents able to raise her to adulthood?
“Okay! Brother Jiayan.” She didn’t want to call him “Fourth Brother” either; he was her Brother Jiayan.
She could sense that his body at that moment contained the soul of Yu Jiayan's true form.
It feels very familiar.
Warm and safe.
"I want to call you 'little sister' too, Wanwan, I want to too. Little sister—little sister—"
Lu Zhili was jumping around on the ground. He had been crying like a baby just now, but now he was laughing like a fool.
Perhaps in his world, 0 is 0 and 1 is 1.
Everything is reduced to its simplest form.
As night deepened, the chirping of insects could be heard intermittently outside.
Just then, Yunping entered the small room, intending to take Anwan and Lu Zhili back to their room to sleep.
Lu Yanshu followed him in. He and Lu Jiayan shared a room so that it would be easier to take care of the sick Lu Jiayan.
"See you tomorrow, Jia Yan." Seeing the sleepiness in his eyes, An Wan felt embarrassed to stay any longer.
She has already received a lot of information about this country and the Lu family tonight, enough for her to digest for a while.
If I ask any more questions, I'm afraid he'll become suspicious.
Nothing is more important than his rest.
See you tomorrow--
Upon entering the master bedroom, An Wan surveyed the room in the dim light. The 1.5-meter-wide bed was the one she had slept in for the past few days.
But how are we going to sleep with four people tonight?
Yunping also felt she couldn't sleep, so she asked Lu Zhili to sleep in Lu Jingxing's room.
He didn't make a scene, but obediently went to find Lu Jingxing. However, before leaving, he made an appointment with An Wan to meet him first thing in the morning.
An Wan used the new toothbrush Yun Ping had prepared to brush her teeth clean, took off the dirty clothes she had worn for several days, and changed into a light green old dress.
Yunping combed her hair. There wasn't enough time or hot water for her to take a bath today because the three Lu brothers had gone home and occupied the bathroom all night.
The only thing I can do is arrange to give her a bath and wash her hair tomorrow.
An Wan lay at the innermost part of the bed, pressed against the wall, staring blankly at the slightly yellowed mosquito net.
She found it hard to sleep, especially after Lu Sen got into bed with her, his scent repulsive to her.
Fearing they might do something indescribable, she quickly pretended to be asleep, making soft, moderate breathing sounds.
After tucking An Wan in, Yunping kept turning to look at her face until she finally fell asleep, then turned over to look at Lu Sen, who had just gotten into bed.
His handsome face was now marked by the passage of time; he had a few more wrinkles than last year, and his skin had darkened a bit.
In the last two years, he was promoted from team leader to supervisor at the ore mine, which means he has to go out more often to check on the situation at the ore mine and prevent landslides.
"Go to sleep! Why are you looking at me?" He felt a little embarrassed by her staring at him.
