In Zhou Jingyan's life, Yu Xinghe took much more care of him than his biological parents.
Once, Zhou Jingyan, who was only six years old, was accidentally locked in the house by his parents who were on a business trip. He cried and knocked on the door for a long time but no one noticed him.
By the end of the knocking, I had used up all my strength and could only scratch the door panel unwillingly.
He called Yu Xinghe's name over and over again, weakly.
He was extremely scared, afraid that he would never see the girl with a bright smile who would stand in front of him and protect him again.
He was young and didn't know how to cook. He was hungry all day and cried for a long time, so he almost fainted.
But he believed that the little girl would definitely come to find him.
Yu Xinghe, who just entered the first grade of primary school, had an overwhelming desire to share, but his younger brother Yu Xinghai was at the age of playing in the mud and learning to speak.
Every time she chattered to herself for a long time, the response she got was usually a silly smile or a drooling request for a hug.
Therefore, Yu Xinghai was labeled as a "fool" by Yu Xinghe since he was a child, which affected him for many years.
Zhou Jingyan was only one year younger than her, and was even more well-behaved and cute than most girls. He also liked to stick behind her and listen to her talk.
So Yu Xinghe, the little bully in the neighborhood, would go to find Zhou Jingyan almost every day after school.
Tell him what happened at school.
Every time she heard him praise herself, it greatly satisfied the little girl's pride.
So, Yu Xinghe was the first person to discover that he was locked at home.
Unfortunately, Yu Xinghe's parents have not returned yet, and she, a little girl, cannot save him.
But she was smart. Knowing that he hadn't eaten for a day, she asked him to climb to the window of her room and wait for her.
Zhou Jingyan always listens to Yu Xinghe.
He immediately got up from the ground and staggered towards his room.
The small body climbed up to the bay window, clung to the guardrail and looked eagerly at her house.
It was a while before I saw her again.
"Step back a bit, or I'll poke you."
Yu Xinghe found his father's fishing rod at home, wrapped the top line around a plastic bag, and handed it through the window.
There were several meat buns in the bag.
The little girl shouted across the guardrail.
"Brother Jingyan, don't be afraid. I've heated the meat buns in the microwave. You can eat them first."
Seeing him tear open the plastic bag, take out the meat bun and eat it greedily, I couldn't help but smile.
"Are you thirsty?"
Zhou Jingyan, frightened, nodded with his eyes red and swollen like walnuts.
Anyone who sees that poor little thing would feel sorry for it.
He cried at the top of his lungs for the entire afternoon, and his throat was so dry that it was almost smoking.
Tears welled up in my eyes.
Yu Xinghe felt very distressed.
"Then I'll get you a few more bottles of water. Just be good and don't cry."
Then, as if she had thought of something, she explained the potential safety hazards to him, "Don't touch the thermos at home, got it?"
The little girl's voice was very cute, but she pretended to be an adult and asked him, "Are you scared of being home alone?"
The little boy paused, looked at her concerned eyes, and nodded again.
Yu Xinghe's little face was squeezed between the guardrails, winking at him.
"I'm right here with you. You won't be afraid if I'm talking to you."
"My parents have gone to my uncle's house and will be back soon. Then they will be able to rescue you."
"So don't be afraid."
Yu Xinghe was only seven years old at that time, but he had already shown his potential.
The determined look, calmness and intelligence beyond his peers healed the little boy who was locked up at home and crying bitterly.
I'm with you, don't be afraid.
These words, like a silent promise, were deeply rooted in his heart.
"I, I'm not afraid."
He repeated it softly, and his frightened heart was comforted.
Later, Yu Xinghe's parents returned home and learned that Zhou Jingyan was locked in the house and could not get out. They called his parents and asked a locksmith to pry open the lock.
The moment the door opened, the dim light in the corridor was warm.
There were many neighbors standing at the door who came to show their concern for him.
But he threw himself into Yu Xinghe's arms and hugged her tightly.
So he has been particularly dependent on her since he was a child.
…
"Jing Yan?"
Yu Xinghe, who was sitting opposite, tapped the table with his fingers, "Jing Yan, are you listening to me?"
I lectured him for a long time before I calmed down.
However, the person sitting opposite him lowered his head without saying a word.
Yu Xinghe coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed.
I began to wonder if I had said something too harsh just now.
Is he unhappy?
Oh, I have to change this bad habit of mine!
I am used to educating him, and every time I see him I can't help but talk to him a few more times.
Could it be that he finds himself annoying?
Boys of this age seem to have strong self-esteem.
Yu Xinghe was troubled by the question of "how to coax a little boy".
Immersed in memories, Zhou Jingyan pursed his lips, raised his eyes and looked at her carefully.
But my heart was filled with sweetness.
It feels so good to have her always talking about me and caring about me.
Seeing her suddenly frown and distressed look, I could guess what she was thinking.
He immediately sat up straight and poked the back of her hand on the table with his fingers.
"Sister, I brought a coat, but it was a bit hot on the way here, so I took it off."
He pulled his school uniform out of his bag and showed it to her, then added softly, "I'm not cold."
The boy's voice was very soft, especially when he softened his tone.
Like a little lamb, her sparkling peach blossom eyes are more beautiful than many girls' eyes.
It's impossible to get angry.
It turns out that she was imagining too much!
Yu Xinghe raised his eyebrows, murmured "hmm" softly, covered his mouth and turned his head away, even his shoulders began to tremble slightly.
If you look closely, you will find that her ears and neck are red.
She was holding back her laughter.
Zhou Jingyan supported his chin and looked at her, smiled knowingly, and did not expose her.
Where she couldn't see, his eyes were focused and gentle.
She never realized that as the years passed, the little boy who liked to hide behind her had grown up unknowingly.
The clerk pressed the small bell on the table and looked at the two of them with some envy.
Although I really don't want to disturb their atmosphere, if I don't call them, the milk tea will get cold.
"Hello, the milk tea you ordered is ready."
The word "sister" he just called out would make anyone who heard it accidentally feel their bones go soft.
Zhou Jingyan quickly stood up, took the hot milk tea, smiled and said thank you.
"Sister, here you go, what you like."
