While asleep, Tu Keke dreamed of Yan Li.
She and her sister only started calling their father "Mom" after their father and Yanli got married.
That was before Yanli married Tu Yi.
23-year-old Yanli went home with Tu Yi to meet his parents and met the two little girls for the first time.
Ten-year-old Tu Keke hid behind her 14-year-old sister Tu Luoxue, timidly watching the beautiful older sister her father had brought home.
Grandpa and Grandma were very happy and talked to the girl for a long time.
That night, Yanli suggested sleeping with the two girls, hoping to deepen their relationship.
Although Tu Luoxue was somewhat reluctant, she had no choice but to sleep with her sister since her sister had agreed.
Tu Xing and Shen Yulan also hoped that the two sisters could accept Yan Li.
While sleeping, Yanli took the initiative to pull the two little girls into her arms.
Tu Luoxue was a little shy, while Tu Keke took the initiative to get close to Yan Li.
Yanli told the two sisters her story about herself and her brother, and with gentle pats on their backs, the two sisters slept peacefully.
This is probably related to the fact that they were unable to live with their mothers when they were young.
Tu Keke woke up at eight o'clock in the evening.
She sat up and saw her sister writing a test paper at her desk.
Hearing the noise, Tu Luoxue turned around and found that Tu Keke had woken up.
Are you hungry?
"A little."
"Let's go eat. Uncle made sweet and sour pork ribs for dinner. They're delicious."
Tu Keke got up, straightened her slightly disheveled clothes, and walked out of the room. Everyone was watching TV in the small living room, chatting and laughing.
When Yanluo saw Tu Keke, she got up and took Tu Keke's hand.
"Come on, let your uncle heat up the food for you. Are you hungry?"
Tu Keke nodded, her eyes still a little red.
Yan Luo led Tu Keke downstairs, moved a chair for the girl, and spoke like a gentlemanly butler.
"Miss Coco, please sit down. This old servant will go and prepare your meal right away."
Tu Keke chuckled, her previously gloomy mood improving somewhat.
Yanlu quickly heated up the dishes and served Tu Keke a bowl of rice.
Tu Keke began to wolf down her food.
I probably didn't eat much at noon, and the food in the cafeteria was pretty average.
It's supposed to be filling, but the food isn't very tasty.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Tu Keke raised her head and looked at Yan Luo sitting opposite her.
"Uncle, you are just as gentle as Mom."
"Sister Qing is also."
Yan Luo was a little stunned, but still smiled slightly and said, "I'm glad you like it."
After finishing her meal and taking a shower, Tu Keke lay on the bed in her nightgown.
Although she is usually a lively and cheerful girl, she also finds it difficult to adjust her mood when she is sad.
Tu Luoxue put down her pen, and her uncle told her why Tu Keke was sad.
As the older sister, she felt obligated to comfort her dear younger sister.
Tu Luoxue climbed onto the bed, hugged her younger sister, and gently stroked Tu Keke's head.
Are you still sad?
Tu Keke gently shook her head.
"It won't be too sad."
Tu Luoxue comforted Tu Keke in a gentle tone.
"It's okay, your older sister is here."
Tu Keke closed her eyes and gently nuzzled her sister.
The next morning, Tu Keke went to the backyard, sat cross-legged, and began cultivating using the "Book of the Four Seasons".
At six o'clock, Tu Keke picked up the fine steel longsword and swung it repeatedly.
As her internal energy became more abundant, Tu Keke swung her sword more and more frequently.
Sword after sword was swung, and drop after drop of sweat fell.
The girl transformed her sadness into motivation for cultivation.
Bai Ningbing went to the backyard.
Seeing the girl working so hard, he couldn't help but think of his own past.
There was a step at the sliding door in the backyard, and Bai Ningbing sat on the step, quietly watching Tu Keke cultivate.
At 6:30, Tu Keke's alarm clock rang, which meant she could stop.
But Tu Keke continued to wield her sword. The energy in her dantian had long been exhausted. At this moment, every sword strike from Tu Keke was wielded with sheer willpower.
Bai Ningbing flashed behind Tu Keke and grabbed Tu Keke's hand, which was about to swing her sword.
Tu Keke came to her senses, and a wave of muscle soreness instantly filled her body.
Bai Ningbing took the longsword and stuck it into the lawn.
"Cultivating the Tao cannot be rushed. One must not have distracting thoughts and must concentrate one's will in order to achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Tu Keke collapsed into Bai Ningbing's arms.
His light blue eyes showed both weariness and curiosity.
"Sister Ningbing, how do you know all this?"
Bai Ningbing smiled mysteriously.
āIām a little weaker than your uncle, but a little stronger than your sister Miaomiao.ā
Tu Keke stared wide-eyed at the aunt her uncle had brought back, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Bai Ningbing didn't mind that Tu Keke was covered in sweat. She put her arms around Tu Keke and transferred some of her internal energy to her.
That might make Tu Ke feel a little better.
Tu Keke felt her strength returning and gratefully tilted her head back to say to Bai Ningbing.
"Thank you, Aunt Fox."
Bai Ningbing smiled faintly, exuding charm.
"You're welcome, we're family."
...
Morning reading session.
Tu Keke was idly flipping through her textbook, reviewing all the lessons she had missed yesterday.
After reading it, you'll have a basic grasp of it.
Tu Keke isn't stupid; she just doesn't like to study, but that doesn't mean she can't learn.
The morning reading session was halfway through.
Wang Fang led a female student in. The student wore glasses and looked very refined. Beneath the glasses were a pair of bright, almond-shaped eyes.
The glasses did not obscure her temperament; on the contrary, they accentuated her quiet and elegant demeanor.
Her long, glossy black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and a gentle smile graced her fair and delicate face.
Wang Fang followed her usual routine, glancing around before speaking.
"Everyone quiet down. Let me introduce you. This is our new classmate, Xu Rongyue, who transferred from Shanghai."
"Let's give them a round of applause."
Sparse applause rang out from the class.
"Xu, please sit in the last row, next to the blond student."
Xu Rongyue nodded, bowed slightly to Wang Fang, and then walked down from the podium to her seat.
Xu Rongyue took the initiative to greet Tu Keke.
"Hello, classmate, my name is Xu Rongyue, Rong as in karst cave, and Yue as in bright moon."
Tu Ke saw that the other person greeted him and responded politely.
"Hello, I'm Tu Keke, your name is very nice."
"The night is still and deep, the light is hazy and indistinct, and the moon shines coldly and gently."
"It's a good name."
Xu Rongyue smiled modestly and said, "Thank you."
As soon as the school bell rang, Tu Keke got into the zone and began to study diligently.
Xu Rongyue didn't interact with any of her classmates all morning, except for exchanging a few words with Tu Keke.
The students were eager to get to know their new classmates.
Unfortunately, Tu Keke was sitting next to the new classmate. With that aura, forget it, she might as well not cause trouble.
Xu Rongyue noticed that her classmates seemed a little afraid of her deskmate.
As soon as the lunch break bell rang, the young foreign language teacher ran away.
It's impossible for class to go overtime.
Tu Keke was tidying up her textbooks and notes when Xu Rongyue came over.
"Coco, I'm not familiar with the school. Could you come eat with me?"
Tu Keke nodded subconsciously.
Xu Rongyue happily took Tu Keke's arm, and the two girls chatted casually as they walked toward the cafeteria.
