The two kept a distance of ten meters between them.

And the moment Xie Lian stood up, he saw the wariness in Xia Wan's eyes towards him.

Xie Hate didn't understand: "Are you afraid of me?"

"How is that possible?" Xia Wan denied it without even thinking, but she honestly took another step back, as if she would turn around and run away immediately if anyone approached her.

It's outrageous. Anyone would be scared.

Xie Hate was unpredictable. If he still liked boys, she could just lie down and let him rot.

Since Xia Wan denied it, Xie Yan walked towards her and said, "I have something I want your help with."

Xia Wan tried hard to control her feet and not to step back. Fortunately, Xie Chen maintained a relatively safe social distance between her and her.

Xia Wan asked: "What's the matter?"

Xie said in disgust: "Tomorrow is my sister's daughter's birthday. I hope you can accompany me to the mall to pick out a gift for her."

Xia Wan did not respond directly, but asked: "Why did you call me for this?"

Xie Yan said helplessly: "How can Wei Chiyan and his friends know how to choose gifts for little girls? Don't you have a sister at home? I think you would understand a little bit, or we can call your sister for help when the time comes."

Xia Wan pursed her lips, thinking that this answer was reasonable, and for a moment she could not think of a reason to refuse.

Xie Yan stretched out his hand to her again. There were two cuts on the back of his hand caused by gravel and traces of blood.

Xia Wan immediately realized that this was the injury Xie Yan had suffered while trying to catch her.

So she nodded and said, "I understand. Send me the time and location."

After saying that, Xia Wan wanted to leave.

However, when passing by Xie Lun, he was stopped again.

His voice fell into her ears, sounding a little aggrieved: "You're just leaving like this without taking any responsibility at all?"

Xia Wan refused Xie's request to accompany her to the hospital to bandage the wound.

She had a blank expression on her face: "It's such a small cut, it should have healed by the time we got to the hospital, right?"

The bleeding from the wound has stopped naturally, and if you look closely, it seems that it is just a minor skin break.

So in the end, Xia Wan took Xie Yan to a nearby pharmacy to buy Band-Aids and iodine.

Standing in front of the counter, Xie was dissatisfied with the ordinary Band-Aids that the staff took out, pointed at another box of cartoon Band-Aids, and said in a commanding tone: "Xia Mu, I want that one."

Because they could see that the wound was not that deep but the boy who was raising his hand in an exaggerated manner was not the one who would pay, the staff could only look at Xia Wan in embarrassment.

Xia Wan just felt a headache and said, "Take the one he wants. Sorry for bothering you."

I finally bought the band-aid I wanted. Thank you. I am now satisfied.

The two sat on the bench at the door, and Xia Wan helped Xie Han clean the wound.

The moment the Band-Aid was taken out, both of them fell silent.

Looking at the picture of Princess Barbie on the Band-Aid, Xia Wan's lips twitched wildly.

There were cute little animals on the box, but when I opened it, I found a pink Barbie princess inside.

Seeing Xia Wan trying hard to hold back her laughter, Xie Yan still held his hand in the air and said, "Laugh if you want to. Don't hold it back."

"Hahahahahaha...no...it's not funny, not funny at all hahahahahaha"

It's even funnier when I think about how Xie An had to get this box of Band-Aids.

Xia Wan said this and carefully put the girlish Band-Aid on Xie's hand.

Eyes met.

Xia Wan stopped laughing and said seriously: "Thank you, I'm sorry, it's all my fault for what happened today, so I will be responsible for you."

Xie raised his eyebrows and asked, "How do you want to be responsible?"

Xia Wan said seriously: "I will be responsible for cleaning all your wounds."

Xie Yan was stunned.

Xia Wan had unknowingly opened a new Band-Aid and took the opportunity to put it on Xie's disgusting face.

She said very seriously: "You didn't notice it, did you? You also have a scratch on your face. Although it's not serious, you still have to take it seriously. Remember to change the Band-Aid every day."

The wound on Xie's face was more shallow, and it looked like it was scratched by something, without even breaking the skin.

Xie Yan naturally understood why Xia Wan did this, and he did not tear off the Band-Aid, but smiled and said: "Okay, I will."

Xie's gentle attitude made Xia Wan's smile stiff.

She was so absorbed in the laughter and disgust that she forgot what had just happened.

Thanks, dangerous.

Fortunately, the Xia family's driver had arrived at this time, preventing Xia Wan and Xie Yan from being alone together anymore.

As soon as Xia Wan got home, she received another WeChat message from Xie Yan.

【XY】: See you at XX shopping mall at 3pm tomorrow.

Xia Wan hesitated for a moment and replied to him.

【Good evening】: What kind of girl are you and what do you like?

Thank you for replying immediately.

【XY】: About ten years old? I don’t know.

Xia Wan: "..."

Forget it, thank you. It’s good enough that I can remember my age.

the other side.

Xie family.

The moment Xie Yan stepped into the house, the woman sitting on the sofa called out to him: "Hey Xie Yan! Do you think I'm invisible?"

Xie Ying was very dissatisfied with her brother's long-term indifference to her.

Xie stopped walking, still looking uninterested: "Isn't tomorrow your daughter's birthday? How come you still have time to go home?"

"It's because you didn't reply to my message that I had to come home to catch you." Xie Ying was also very dissatisfied when she said this, but she remembered that her main business today was not to quarrel with Xie Ying, so she could only say: "My parents are busy with work recently, and my girlfriend is out of town and can't come back, so you must not let me go tomorrow!"

"Got it." Xie replied, "I'll be there on time."

After saying this, Xie Hate prepared to go upstairs.

Of course, he was stopped again.

Xie Ying said angrily: "I don't care what you do at home, but if you put on this face tomorrow and scare my precious daughter, I won't let you go. Come on, raise the corners of your lips, bend your eyes, and try to smile!"

Xie hates smiling without a smile.

Xie Ying took a step back in fear, and then became angry: "Do I owe you money? Why do you look like that? Can you cooperate a little?"

Xie Ren ignored Xie Ying and directly broke away from her hand.

"Wait a moment!"

Just now, Xie Ying was only concerned with telling her brother to smile, but the moment she saw the Band-Aid on his hand, she realized what was on his face.

So Xie Ying quickly walked up the stairs and stared at the Band-Aids on Xie Hou's face and hands, shifting her gaze back and forth.

Then she laughed out loud: "Thank you, what are you doing? Yuanyuan doesn't like such childish things, why do you suddenly have a girlish heart? Talk to your sister."

Before Xie Yan could answer, Xie Ying started to speculate again: "Such a childish thing, and sticking it directly on the face, it looks like a bad taste between a couple, right? Hey... don't tell me who you like? Talk to me."

Although Xie Ying said this, she also understood her brother's personality. He would definitely scold her and say it was boring, then ignore her and walk away.

However, what Xie Ying didn't expect was that Xie Yan nodded and said, "I've found someone who's interested."

Xie Ying: “?!!”

Woohoo! My little brother has grown up! He is actually willing to talk to his dear sister!

Xie Ying tried to suppress her inner excitement, but her gossipy spirit couldn't help but ignite: "That's great, you have to know that being interested in someone is the beginning of liking them! How about this, you bring the person to me to see! I'll check for you!"

When Xie Ying said this, she never expected Xie Ren to agree, just as she had never thought that he would admit it.

However, tonight a miracle happened for the second time.

Xie smiled at her and said, "Okay, I'll take her there tomorrow night."

Until Xie Yan went upstairs and heard the sound of a door closing.

Xie Ying finally came to her senses from her daze.

Then, she was so excited that she covered her mouth with her hands and squatted on the ground, almost crying with joy.

Ahhh! My brother actually smiled at her just now! And he will bring her the person he likes tomorrow!

She wanted to call her parents immediately to tell them the good news. Does this mean that she is the first person in the family to be recognized by her younger brother?

Wuwuwu! Ten years ago, my family discovered that my younger brother, who had just entered elementary school, had some minor personality issues (yes, they were just minor issues, but other than that, he was super cute!!!), so they made a bet that whoever could be the first relative in the family to be recognized by Xie Qian from the bottom of his heart would become the person with the highest status in the family.

At this moment, Xie Ying seemed to see her hope of winning the ten-year agreement.

Being clung to and coquettishly supported by her cute little brother, and being adored by both her parents, she is about to become the most prestigious and happiest person in this family! Yay!!!

bedroom.

Xie took off his shirt in disgust.

The boy stood in front of the mirror with a ridiculous Barbie Princess Band-Aid on his face. He raised his hand in the air, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't tear it off.

His shoulders and back were bare, and there were bruises all over his back.

After all, it was impossible for him to be unharmed after falling to the ground like that.

But Xie didn't care and had no intention of applying any ointment. He just waited for the bruise to heal on its own.

Then he walked towards the bathroom, but stopped when he looked down and saw the Band-Aid on his hand, seeming a little embarrassed.

finally.

He raised his left hand awkwardly and just took a quick shower with the shower in his right hand.

Although he protected it carefully, he tore it off deliberately before leaving the house the next day.

Taobao's shopping cart is filled with a range of peach-flavored foods.

When Song Zhili realized what he had done, he lowered his eyes and deleted all these things.

There is no need to go this far, he told himself.

He dropped his phone aside, only to pick it up again a few minutes later.

In the next few days, Song Zhili continued to open a lot of express boxes.

Jiang Yushi tossed and turned and suffered from insomnia.

He walked out of the room.

Wei Chiyan, who was soundly sleeping, was pulled out of bed and forced to play games with Jiang Yushi, cursing.

Three hours later, Jiang Yushi felt sleepy.

Wei Chiyan perked up and began to force Jiang Yushi to continue fighting with him.

Torture each other and hurt each other.

After losing a game, Jiang Yushi couldn't help but asked, "Wei Chi, I want to ask you something."

Jiang Yushi's serious tone made Wei Chiyan put down the game in his hand and said: "You said, tell me everything you know, and say it all!"

Jiang Yushi hesitated and said, "If I didn't tell you something, but I did it for your own good, would you be angry?"

"Of course not. Didn't you say it was for my own good?"

After Wei Chiyan finished speaking, he was stunned again and said, "No, this question sounds so familiar. Song Zhili asked me the same question tonight. What secrets are you all hiding from me? Ah, I know... Could it be that you and Song Zhili stole the pair of socks I lost last week? I was saying that the pair of socks you wore yesterday looked especially like mine!"

Jiang Yushi could no longer bear it and punched Wei Chiyan on the head: "Wake up, who would steal something like that from you!!!"

The next afternoon.

Xia Wan arrived at the shopping mall where they had agreed to meet on time.

The gift selection process went smoothly as well. They visited some toy stores and bought a big box of Barbie dolls that could be exchanged for dozens of clothes, as well as a cute lamb doll.

Then I went to the clothing store upstairs and picked out a beautiful princess dress.

Of course, the size was chosen based on Xie's height and weight which he could barely measure based on his memory of a photo.

After successfully completing the task, Xia Wan naturally handed the bags to Xie Ni and said, "Then I will take my leave now that my mission is accomplished?"

Xie Sin was holding the princess dress and doll in her left hand and the lamb doll in her right hand. She said, "I can't let you help me in vain. As a thank you, why don't you come with me?"

Xia Wan naturally refused immediately. Xie hated her sister's daughter's birthday, so why would she go to such a family dinner?

But before Xia Wan could refuse, her cell phone suddenly rang.

It was an unfamiliar number, but when the call was connected, a cute little girl's voice rang out.

"Sister...Brother Xia! I'm living well here with my new mother! Do you still remember me?"

It is a round sound.

Xia Wan's eyes lit up instantly, and she said directly: "Yuanyuan!"

Because she was too happy at the moment, Xia Wan didn't notice that Xie's disgusted gaze was rarely cast on her.

Yuanyuan happily told Xia Wan on the other end of the phone that her new mother was very kind to her, and asked Xia Wan if she was free today and if she could come and have dinner with her.

Xia Wan naturally agreed immediately, then looked at Xie Yan and said again what she had not had time to refuse just now: "Actually, I really, really, really want to go with you, but it's really a coincidence that I have something to do here."

Xie Ni showed a disappointed look on his face: "Really? You really, really, really want to go with me? That's really unfortunate."

"Yes." Xia Wan said with regret, "There's really nothing I can do about it. In that case, I'll leave first!"

After saying that, Xia Wan quickly went upstairs again.

Yes, she was going to buy some gifts for Yuanyuan to meet her.

But time was too tight, so Xia Wan suddenly had an idea and bought the same Barbie dolls, plush toys, and princess dresses that she and Xie Ren had just picked out. Then she turned around and went into a bookstore and bought some fairy tale books for Yuanyuan.

Xia Wan couldn't help but admire her own wisdom——

You are such a smart guy!

Little girls, you must like similar things, that’s for sure!

Then Xia Wan took these things and set off according to the address received in the text message.

Xia Wan is extremely fond of this sensible and well-behaved little girl. If she were thirty years old now, she would probably adopt Yuanyuan as her own daughter.

I didn’t expect to see Yuanyuan again so soon! That’s great!

The well-behaved girl, wearing a cute skirt, sat at the table and called out carefully: "Hello, uncle."

The 17-year-old male high school student who suddenly got promoted said: "..."

Xie Ying laughed exaggeratedly: "You have to accept this. This is your niece Yuanyuan. You two should get along well with each other in the future."

Xie said with a blank expression, "Oh."

Feeling her sister kicking her under the table, Xie reluctantly smiled at Yuanyuan and said, "Hello."

He didn't like children, just like he didn't like cats and dogs, they were all troublesome things, so he deliberately ignored his sister's words and showed a smile that he thought was ugly.

What Xie Yan didn't expect was that Yuanyuan carefully handed him the peeled orange and said timidly: "Uncle, eat it."

Thank you: "..."

Dislike: “I don’t like oranges.”

He can still ruthlessly reject the cute little girl.

Yuanyuan looked at Xie Ying and asked, "Mom, does my uncle not like eating oranges?"

Xie Ying quickly comforted her daughter, "Yuanyuan, be good. Your uncle has a problem with his brain. It's not that he doesn't like oranges, he just doesn't like you."

"……ha?"

Even Xie Yan was convinced by her own sister's words and said, "Although what you said is true, you shouldn't say such things to your own daughter, right?"

This is something that even Xie Nie understands.

"I haven't finished yet." Xie Ying rolled her eyes at her brother, then immediately changed her expression, looked at Yuanyuan with a smile, and said: "Not only does my uncle dislike you, he also dislikes mom, grandpa and grandma. He doesn't like anyone, so no one likes him. He's very pitiful. Can we be more tolerant of my uncle? Yuanyuan, please like my uncle a little more, okay?"

Yuanyuan nodded vigorously and said, "My uncle is so pitiful. I want to like him!"

Thank you: "..."

That’s enough. I can’t listen to any more.

Xie Ying suddenly asked, "By the way, didn't you say you were going to bring an important guest today?"

Considering Yuanyuan's presence, Xie Ying did not directly say "the person you like", but used "important guest" instead.

Before Xie Han could answer, the doorbell rang.

Xie put down the cup in his hand and said calmly: "She's here."

Thinking about meeting her future sister-in-law, Xie Ying stood up excitedly to open the door and almost dropped one of her slippers.

At this moment, Xia Wan, standing at the door holding a gift, was a little nervous. She was wondering how to greet Yuanyuan's new mother when she saw her.

Forget it, as long as she is not a gray-haired grandma, just call everyone sister.

The door opens.

Xie Ying and Xia Wan looked at each other in bewilderment.

Xia Wan bowed: "Sister..."

"Bang--"

The door was ruthlessly closed by Xie Ying from the inside.

Xia Wan: "???"

Did you go to the wrong door?

Xia Wan immediately took out her cell phone to check the address and house number.

Indoors.

Xie looked over and asked, "Why is the door closed?"

Xie Ying pointed in the direction of the door, her fingers trembling: "Male...male?"

The person my younger brother likes is actually a man???

Xie Ren neither admitted nor denied it, but to Xie Ying, this was the answer.

Xie Ying was still in shock for a while, and murmured: "If my parents knew about this, they would cry for at least three months, right?"

Xie Hate directly retorted: "When you told them, they only cried for a month."

Xie Ying stretched out her hand and scratched her hair anxiously, saying, "That's different. When I came out, my parents agreed because they thought you were the only one who could help me. What should I do now? Will they be unable to accept it?"

Xie stood up and walked away in disgust, saying nonchalantly: "So what."

"Thank you!"

Xie Ying suddenly called out his name loudly, her hand still pointing in the direction of the door, but this time Xie Ying had already walked over.

Xie Ying said: "You really are... you really make me..."

Xie Ni leaned against the door with his arms clasped around his chest, looking at his sister absentmindedly.

Xie Ying's eyes turned red as she spoke.

Xie Ying: “You really make me so happy!”

She and her brother now have one more thing in common! And there will be one more topic to talk about in the future! If mom and dad disagree, she will stand firmly on her brother's side to protect him!

She has imagined it!

A wealthy brother and sister resist family oppression and join hands in pursuit of true love!

After all, she is my own sister, so the answer is expected.

So Xie ignored her and turned around to open the door.

This time it was Xie Yan and Xia Wan's turn to look at each other in bewilderment.

Xie Ren started his impromptu performance and said in a very surprised tone: "Xia Mu? It turns out you didn't lie to me, you really, really, really want to be with me!"

"Bang--"

This time, the door was ruthlessly closed by Xia Wan from the outside.

The author has something to say:
