The girl had a smiling face the whole time, and her expression was glowing as she looked at Xia Xiu. Some of her fiery gazes made him look away, while others he didn't even dare to meet his gaze.

"By the way, Xia Xiu, you seem to be fine. Does your leg still hurt?"

Fan Yanke poked Xia Xiu's leg, luckily she didn't poke the injured one. For some reason, the girl was always particularly cheerful today.

"I was stabbed and suffered a minor injury, but it's not a big deal."

"Stabbed? Who did it?"

The girl's expression was a little nervous, with a worried look on her face. She seemed to have always been like this, so simple and innocent.

"It's okay. The criminal has been brought to justice. It's not a big problem."

The girl thought about it with her not-so-bright head.

"Is it about Sakura? I went to look for Sakura recently, and it seems that she moved to her hometown to recuperate. According to the news yesterday, the eye-digger has been caught."

The girl clapped her hands.

"So Xia Xiu, you fought with that eye-digger (?ò?ó?)"

In just a few words, he analyzed Xia Xiu's motives from a few days ago.

"Well, that's very clever. Don't do that next time."

Although the smart Fan Yanke is very capable, he is still cuter than the silly and naive Xiaoke who used to be more cute.

"So my sister Xiaoyu injured her eye because of the eye-gouging demon incident, so try not to mention this scar when you go in later."

The girl nodded, and Xia Xiu explained the whole story to her in detail, much more seriously than when he explained it to Jiang Chuchu yesterday.

Yeah...I can't see it anymore...

The girl lowered her head slightly, recalling the disdainful and complacent expression on the face of the girl in the room when she handed her the clothes.

"I can't see anymore...Xia Xiu, what do you think the world of the blind is like?"

What it looks like...

Xia Xiu had experienced it once with his eyes closed, but after all, he was only standing from the perspective of a normal person, and he would never be able to understand or empathize with the pain of someone who had lost their sight.

"It must be... painful, right? After all, normal daily life requires help from others."

"Do you need help with eating?"

"want"

"Walking?"

"I also want"

"dressing?"

"want"

"What about taking a bath..."

"certainly..."

The girl said this in a deep voice, and Xia Xiu almost couldn't brake. Looking at Fan Yanke's jealous look, Xia Xiu turned his head away.

"Don't we still have Jiang Chuchu at home? She can take care of things like taking a bath for us."

The girl tugged at Xia Xiu's clothes and asked cautiously.

"Xia Xiu, you and Sister Xiaoyu... don't have any improper thoughts, right?"

She couldn't think too much. They were not related by blood, but they had lived together since childhood. The girl was also blind, so she could rely on him wholeheartedly...

It’s so nice, that I can rely on someone wholeheartedly just by being invisible?

Xia Xiu glanced at the girl's deep eyes and said casually.

"Of course not, it's just an ordinary brother and sister relationship."

The girl finally felt relieved, and then skipped into Xia Xiu's house. She leaned forward and saw a little girl sitting on the sofa, shaking her white silk legs, watching TV with a lollipop in her mouth. She turned her head and saw the girl, and greeted her in a friendly manner.

Fan Yanke also greeted back politely and enthusiastically. She had a good impression of such a polite and lovely little girl.

Then she sat next to Jiang Chuchu, who kindly made way for her. The two girls sat together like this. Although Chuchu could only communicate with outsiders using sticky notes, this did not hinder the friendly friendship between the girls.

Xia Xiu looked at the harmonious atmosphere, smiled, put the dishes in the kitchen, and went into Xiaoyu's room to check. He found that Xiaoyu had woken up at some point and was sitting on the bed in a daze.

"Xiaoyu, are you awake? How did you sleep last night?"

The girl shook her head blankly, her lips moving slightly.

"When I woke up, my vision was blank. Although I didn't know what time it was, the sunlight outside the window shone on my body. I suddenly didn't know what to do..."

The girl's voice was soft and low, so deep that Xia Xiu had to lean in closer to listen clearly.

"Reading? I can't. Watching TV? I can only listen to it in confusion. I can't even get up to go to the bathroom. It's as if I lost the meaning of life overnight and became a disabled burden that only causes trouble for others. I stayed in the house and room that I was most familiar with, but I couldn't construct its appearance in my mind. It felt like there were directions everywhere, and there were dangers everywhere."

"I don't know where my closet is, and I don't know if I can still put on makeup and dress up like this. Do I look haggard and dirty in your eyes now?"

Xia Xiu shook his head, but then realized that Xiaoyu couldn't see him and denied it again.

"You are not haggard. You have to believe that I can make you plump and white. And the injury to your eyes won't last long. It can be cured."

"But what if it can't be cured..."

Xiaoyu's low voice echoed throughout the room, and Xia Xiu noticed that she lowered her head.

"It's not incurable. The doctor said it will definitely get better."

"But there are no absolute things in this world..."

She used to believe in eternity and absolutes...but now she doesn't.

"If you can't be cured, I'll still be there for you, idiot."

Xia Xiu leaned forward and touched the girl's nose with his fingers. The intimate gesture made Xiaoyu feel much happier.

"You won't find me troublesome?"

"You've asked this question many times."

Xia Xiu smiled, then touched the girl's head. The latter's slightly puffed cheeks were very cute.

It had been a long time since Xiaoyu had had a good chat or acted like a spoiled child with him like this. There was no fierce argument, no sad emotions, just calm conversation, expressing the true words in the hearts of both of them.

"Actually, I still believe in eternity."

Xiaoyu groped her way and lay on Xia Xiu's thighs, her hand pinching the hem of his clothes in a daze.

“Even if some things will eventually change, disappear as time goes by, become hateful, and forget the good old days, some things will never change. They are there, and they will always be with you no matter what you do.”

Xia Xiu of course knew who Xiaoyu was referring to, and he shrugged, but the corners of his mouth also raised a little.

"You stay by my side until you get tired of me. Until then, I will keep walking with you."

But he didn't say this out loud, he just buried it in his heart, and it became an agreement that he had to abide by.

Chapter 234 Daily Life

When Xia Xiu walked out of the room, he saw Fan Yanke already asleep on the sofa. Her tired expression and slightly furrowed brows showed that she didn't seem to have slept very well.

Not knowing what this girl has been busy with recently, Xia Xiu shrugged, then went into the kitchen, heated up the oil in a pan, and took a blanket from his room to cover the girl. Jiang Chuchu was still watching TV with great interest, even though it was showing some boring TV programs.

Everything is so normal, life seems to have returned to its original state after experiencing a major setback. The gears and accessories are all running well, and it seems that we can relax and look forward to the future life.

Xia Xiu was cutting meat. He was somewhat bothered by the man who had suddenly appeared that day and killed Brother Zixuan.

Murder is much more difficult than a simple crime. For ordinary people, even if you are given a knife and the person you hate the most is lying in front of you without any resistance, you may not be able to muster up the courage to take action.

Because after you do it, you will lose your identity as a human being, and humans are xenophobic. Even if you escape the police with something bad in your heart, the values ​​​​established since childhood will constantly torment your conscience and your future.

In this world, most murderers have no future. They have no future and become feared beings. They suffer mental torture all day long, and they never know when their minds will completely collapse.

Therefore, Xia Xiu never went down this path until his death. The most he did was to take advantage of the rules, and he did not feel any psychological guilt.

After chopping the stubborn ribs in half with a kitchen knife, Xia Xiu hummed a cheerful little tune. It was several weeks of vacation, several weeks of unnecessary early wake-ups, and unnecessary going to some boring classroom to attend classes that he had already taken. This little thing was enough to make him happy for several days.

It would be better if there were no conflicts among the family members.

Soon, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen. Jiang Chuchu came to the kitchen, sniffing her nose. Her eyes lit up when she saw the delicious food. She moved a small stool, picked up a piece of meat with her hands and put it into her mouth. The hot feeling made her stick out her tongue and breathe out involuntarily.

Xia Xiu smiled.

"Remember to wash your hands."

She put all the food on the dining table, took off her apron, and prepared to wake up the girl who was sleeping on the sofa.

Just as his fingers were about to pinch the chubby cheeks, before he touched the girl's deep eyes opened, and her long eyelashes flickered, which made Xia Xiu feel a little embarrassed.

"It's time to eat, go wash your hands."

The finger involuntarily stretched back and touched her nose. The girl then smiled sweetly, nodded, and went to the bathroom to wash her hands full of energy.

Soon, four people of different sizes sat at the table, but the atmosphere between them was a little awkward. Jiang Chuchu lowered her head and looked like a cute and obedient foodie who only cared about eating, but Fan Yanke stared at Xia Xiu closely, pointing her eyes wherever his finger pointed, causing Xia Xiu's continuous feeding of Xiaoyu to become a little distorted.

The big eyes seemed to be questioning Xia Xiu: Is this what you call an ordinary brother-sister relationship?

"No...no way. After all, Xiaoyu is blind and needs someone to take care of her."

Xia Xiu coughed twice, and Xiaoyu became very obedient for some reason and covered her head to eat. Even though she knew there were some uninvited guests at home, she did not react annoyed or furious like before, but enjoyed Xia Xiu feeding her peacefully.

Occasionally, Jiang Chuchu would stretch out her chopsticks, dip them in her saliva, pick up a spoonful of food and put it into Xiaoyu's mouth. The girl also ate with relish and happily.

Looking at the warm and gentle atmosphere of the whole family in front of her, Fan Yan couldn't help but lower her head, with a hint of envy in her eyes.

Yes, compared to me, they are more like a family, and she is like a clown who doesn't fit in here...

Xia Xiu tapped the girl on the head and added a large piece of braised pork to her bowl.

"Eat well and don't be in a daze."

Looking at the braised pork in the bowl, the girl was stunned for a moment, then she smiled sweetly, nodded and started eating.

In a moment, under Xia Xiu's care, the atmosphere became comfortable, so he finished lunch easily, and then everyone who had eaten and drunk their fill began to doze off in a daze.

After having a good meal and a good drink, Jiang Chuchu had already occupied Xia Xiu's bed. She sat on the bed, blinking her big eyes, expecting Xia Xiu to lie down and sleep with her.

Xia Xiu smiled and shook his head, causing the girl to hit Xiu Gou, who was lying on the ground taking a rest, with resentment.

After the girl settled Xiaoyu in her room, she walked out of the room under the latter's confused gaze and carefully closed the door for the girl.

He remembered that the sound insulation at home should be pretty good, right?

Fan Yanke didn't seem particularly sleepy at this moment because she had taken a short nap before dinner. Instead, she leaned unceremoniously on the sofa with a pillow in her arms. Her fair little feet shrank slightly on the sofa, obviously reacting to Xia Xiu sitting next to her.

The face was so sad that it made the cute and pretty face look wrinkled.

"Is it okay not to study?"

"No way."

Xia Xiu said with a smile, then came to the girl with his textbook. In order not to study, the girl deliberately didn't even bring a schoolbag.

"Why don't you just stop studying? Wouldn't it be nice to use this nice weather and day to do other things?"

The girl hugged his arm coquettishly, and the soft touch made Xia Xiu's stern expression relax a little.

Seeing that this trick seemed to work, the girl immediately turned over with shining eyes and sat on Xia Xiu's thighs, looking at him with shining eyes. One second, two seconds, five seconds later, the girl's face turned red first, but even so, she did not take the initiative to walk away from Xia Xiu's body.

"Is it okay?"

"Just play for a while, just play for a while, and then study right after that"

"Please believe me, a gentleman's word is as good as his bond."

After several sentences of coquettish behavior, Xia Xiu finally couldn't stand it anymore, and his iron-faced and selfless defense finally collapsed.

"Just play for a while. By the way, have you asked the teacher for leave?"

The girl shook her head silly.

Xia Xiu held his forehead and sighed. He knew he wouldn't be able to graduate if he kept skipping classes. He picked up the phone and asked for leave from his homeroom teacher as usual, pretending to be the girl's father.

I don't know why this silly girl is so resistant to studying. I heard that she had good grades in junior high school. Logically, she should not be resistant to studying.

People who are good at studying have one thing in common, which is a little confidence and pride hidden deep in their hearts. When they get started in related familiar fields again, they will be much more proficient.
