Chapter 425 Dependence on each other
The handsome man with enchanting golden eyes was still eye-catching even in the bright noon sun. It made Xia Lan feel strange and familiar. Some bad memories flooded into her mind and she gritted her teeth.

"Sister, his eyes are so beautiful, just like mine."

At this time, Xia Lan's younger sister Xiao Kui, who was standing behind her, had a dazed look in her eyes and whispered softly into her ears.

Turning around suddenly, Xia Lan and he saw that Xiao Kui's eyes were no different from the man's, with the same golden pupils emitting a faint halo, as if there was something mysterious, taboo and dangerous that was different from the common sense of the world.

Xia Lan's pupils shrank, and she felt a great fear. She suddenly rushed forward and pushed the young girl away, and yelled like a raging wrath, "Get out! Stay away from my sister!"

Yuan Zhinu staggered back. He had a strange expression on his face. He was actually pushed by a twelve-year-old girl. He smiled helplessly but was not annoyed.

He Xia Lan took out the key and opened the door at random. He turned around and ordered in an unquestionable tone, "Xiao Kui, come here!"

Xiao Kui was stunned, then came back to her senses from the strange state. She glanced at Yuan Zhinv who was smiling gently, said "oh" weakly to her sister, and trotted towards her sister.

He Xia Lan glared at Yuan Zhinu, urged Xiao Kui to go in quickly, then she hurried in and slammed the door shut.

Looks brave, but actually very cowardly.

Yuan Zhinu knocked on the door, and Xia Lan's suspicious voice came from inside, "If you do this again, I'm going to call the police!"

"I have no ill will towards you sisters," Yuan Zhinv said gently, "Why don't you patiently listen to my reasons?"

"You will take my Xiaokui away. No one is allowed to take Xiaokui away from me! She is my sister!" He Xia Lan was very emotional and didn't listen to any excuses.

Yuan Zhinu's expression was moved when she heard this, and the corners of her mouth rose as she thought of something. Then the malice in her heart emerged, and she interrogated Xia Lan in a low and bewitching tone.

"Even if your sister is an alien? You are afraid of me, but you are actually afraid of my eyes, just like your sister."

There was silence on the other side of the door for a long time, so long that Yuan Zhinu thought Xia Lan had stood him up, but Xia Lan's voice still came over.

"What does it have to do with you?"

Yuan Zhinu burst out laughing.

On the other side, Xia Lan and she moved chairs and stools and piled them at the door. She was afraid that Yuan Zhinv would break into the house, so she stood on a small stool and looked through the peephole to see Yuan Zhinv disappear from her sight. She breathed a sigh of relief and cold sweat soaked the back of her collar.

Xiao Kui and Xia Lan jumped off the bench and came to the small and shabby living room. Xiao Kui took off her leather shoes, hugged her knees and leaned on the sofa in a daze. When she heard her sister's footsteps, she turned around and asked.

"Has that big brother left?"

"Xiao Kui," Xia Lan, who was sitting next to her sister, raised his arm and touched her head, "that person is not a good person."

"Why? He is very handsome and his smile is very gentle." Xiao Kui was puzzled.

He Xia Lan was tired. At her young age, she might not know the saying that one's values ​​are determined by one's appearance, but He Xia Lan thought it was wrong for her sister to judge a person based on his appearance.

It should be like her, who can tell at a glance that the other person is not a good person. He must be an evil hentai lolita control, with a dirty heart and a desire to satisfy the urge to be an Odosan.

"Goo~"

And Xia Lan's stomach growled.

"Sister, Xiaokui will go cook." Xiaokui said with a faint smile.

"Ah."

There was no way I could say much to Xia Lan. She was a cooking black hole and cooking was a waste of food. There was no need to argue at this time.

He Xia Lan looked at her sister's back as she sat on a stool in an apron, her eyes filled with pity. She got up and went back to her and her sister's room, and took out a broken rabbit doll from the cupboard. It was covered with trampled shoe prints, just like they were sisters.

The rabbit doll was washed very clean, except for the many cracks that had been torn, revealing its fur. He and Xia Lan called out, "Xiao Kui, I'm going to take a nap first. Call me when the meal is ready."

"Okay~ Ona-chan~"

After hearing the reply, He Xia Lan locked the door and found a needle and wool from the bedside table. One of her arms was injured and it hurt slightly when she lifted it, but the other hand was fine. He Xia Lan threaded the needle and fumbled to sew the rabbit doll.

"Hi~"

He Xia Lan frowned and sucked her fingertips. She felt a little frustrated. She was very stupid when it came to cooking and handicrafts. She was the elder sister, but she had to rely on her younger sister for many aspects of life.

About an hour later, He Xia Lan looked at the bunny doll that looked like Frankenstein with shame. The button eyes of the bunny doll were staring at her in silent protest.

He Xia Lan sighed, rubbed her stiff little face, and carefully put the Frankenstein version of the rabbit doll into her cabinet. Her sister was very well-behaved and usually would not touch her cabinet casually.

At this time, Xiao Kui knocked on the door and called Xia Lan to have dinner.

"Coming." He Xia Lan replied.

The Xia family's three meals a day are simple meals, fried bean sprouts and coleslaw, and rice with miso soup. These foods are cheap and can supplement vitamins, making them a very affordable choice.

There is no way, the compensation is limited, and they are still young with no other options except going to school, so they have to save as much as possible before they can earn money.

In fact, there were relatives willing to adopt the two sisters, but they had to separate them because their family already had children and could not afford to support the sisters.

He Xia Lan didn't want to be separated from Xiao Kui, and Xiao Kui didn't want to be separated from her sister, so they went on like this.

"Sister, are you going to the afternoon class?" Xiao Kui took a bite of bean sprouts. Her cooking skills were pretty good. At least she added salt to avoid losing the original taste.

He Xia Lan looked at the wounds on his body and said calmly.

"Of course."

"…Um."

Xiao Kui knew that her sister hated the older brother, so she didn't mention it during the meal. Since she and Xia Lan were injured, the job of washing dishes was given to Xiao Kui.

After finishing their chores, the two sisters went for a nap together, lying on their sides with their fingertips touching, breathing freely, the sun shining on their faces, bright and colorful.

I went to the elementary school for class in the afternoon. Xia Lan and I observed vigilantly through the peephole. Only when we found no one was blocking the door did we move the stools and chairs away one by one.

Sakura no Oka Elementary School, the elementary school where the Xia sisters studied, the two were assigned to different classes.

As He Xia Lan walked in, the originally lively classroom suddenly fell silent. The group of children stared at He Xia Lan, who was bandaged, with curiosity or more complicated eyes.

He Xia Lan pursed her lips and sat back in her seat as if nothing had happened. When she saw that the table was clean, she knew that no one was playing a prank this time.

Xia Lan's deskmate was a very popular person, unlike her. The deskmate turned around and asked Xia Lan in a low voice how she got the injury.

"I fell accidentally." He Xia Lan said with a stern face.

"Tsk, say it if you want." My desk mate was not very happy.

The bell rang and the teacher came, a middle-aged woman. She glanced at Xia Lan, remembered the gossip in the office, and began to lecture calmly.

During the break, Xia Lan and I went to see Xiao Kui. The elementary school students in the class started whispering, and words like "jinx" and "little monster" came out of their mouths, and they looked very childish.
