Miss, you really caught the wrong fish!

Qin Heng exclaimed

He was no longer able to worry about so much at the moment, and walked towards Qing Nian with big strides, holding a wet tissue in his hand.

——What happened? Didn’t you just treat the wound? Why is it bleeding again? And the wound looks a lot more serious!?

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have left Qing Nian alone there. I should blame myself for wasting half a day buying a bottle of water!

"Sister Nian Yi, are you okay? Come here quickly so I can see your wound. Why is your lip covered in blood—"

Qin Heng hurriedly came to Qing Nianyi, and just as he was about to reach out to treat Qing Nianyi's wound——

!!!!!!??

But what Qin Heng didn't expect was that Qing Nianyi, who had been standing there in a daze with his head down and silent, suddenly stretched out his hands and hugged him just as Qin Heng stretched out his hand and approached his lips to check the wound.

……

Feeling the gentle and soft touch in front of him, Da Xianyu was a little confused for a moment... Looking at Qing Nianyi who was still silent, Qin Heng's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, his face full of worry.

The hands around his waist were locked tighter and tighter, and he could even feel her body trembling slightly...

"What happened, Sister Nianyi? If you don't want to talk about it now, it's okay. Let's take care of the wound first, okay?"

Although I don't know what Qing Nianyi experienced during the time I was away that made him become so abnormal.

But at this moment, the only thing Qin Heng could think of was the instructions given by Butler Ling to him - to take good care of Qing Nianyi...

Now, looking at the blood stains and dripping blood between the other's lips, Qin Heng was deeply hurt.

He stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Qing Nianyi's shoulder, comforting her while also anxiously wanting to treat her wound.

Looking at the person in front of him who was still hugging him tightly, burying his head in front of him, unwilling to speak,

Qin Heng became increasingly anxious...

"Sister Nianyi, can you please lift your head up? Let me see the wound. We can't keep dragging it on like this!"

Now he was like a bewildered child, panicking but powerless...

……

"……mine……"

A slightly hoarse voice came, with a hint of tears. It had long lost its former lightness, gracefulness and gentleness, and murmured softly:

But the voice was too soft, or maybe because Qing Nian's lips were injured, Qin Heng could hardly hear what the other person said.

……

……

"…It's obviously mine… I only have a younger brother… Why… Why are you trying to snatch it from me…"

……

Still unable to hear the whispers of Qing Nianyi, Qin Heng finally couldn't help but interrupt him and said

"Sister Nianyi, let's talk about the rest later. Let's take care of the wound first, okay? I'm really worried about you... Sister Nianyi..."

Finally, this voice full of worry

Qing Nian vaguely felt his brother's call and love.

Qing Nianyi, who had been unresponsive, slowly raised his head.

……

"Okay, it's okay, Sister Nianyi. Don't worry, I'll take care of your injuries right away—"

Just when Qin Heng felt that Qing Nianyi in his arms was finally willing to raise his head. But before he could breathe a sigh of relief——

The moment he looked up at the other person, Qin Heng's heart turned cold again, and the words in his mouth gradually disappeared...

-

The face of the woman in front of him was still as stunningly beautiful as ever, but the gentleness and sweetness of the past had long since disappeared...

The long, beautiful hair floated on her shoulders, and a few strands fell on her pale lips, gradually staining her hair with blood-red. With a deep, dead silence, there was no life at all...

There was a dull light in Mu Zi's eyes, and a little mist was flowing in her eye sockets. It seemed that it would condense into drops and slide down in the next moment.

……

Just one glance and Qin Heng was stunned where he was.

……

The pale and powerless words rang out again, with an indescribable tenderness... Even though blood was still flowing between his lips, his face was ashen.

But at this time, Qingnian Yiyi still showed that gentle smile..., but now——

But now it seems so miserable and lonely...

"...Brother...love sister too...okay?"

119. Confession/Uneasy

Qing Nianyi's words were still gentle and full of tenderness, but there was a slight tremor in them that could not be concealed no matter what.

Qin Heng stared blankly at the "sister" in front of him, and felt the woman underneath him tightly grasping the corner of his clothes, trembling with anxiety...

Looking into Mu Zi's eyes, Qin Heng felt mixed emotions at the moment...

He didn't know what happened to Qing Nianyi to make her become what she is now, nor did he know how to answer Qing Nianyi's words...

After a while, Qin Heng finally exhaled slowly.

He stretched out his hand, placed it on Qing Nianyi's snow-white and delicate chin, and picked up the wet tissue in his hand.

He smiled slightly and said lightly

"Sister Nianyi..., let me help you treat your wound first..."

At this moment, Qing Nianyi curled up, holding tightly onto the corner of his brother's clothes with both hands. Qing Shi's face was filled with weakness and anxiety.

Like a child about to be abandoned, she snuggled tightly in Qin Heng's arms, tears welling up in her eyes, as if they would burst out in the next moment...

Qing Nian looked at her brother in front of her, grasped the corner of his clothes and hugged him tightly, then nodded gently.

"Um……"

After hearing Qing Nian's affirmative reply, Qin Heng finally breathed a sigh of relief...

——Other things can be put aside, but if the wound is not treated in time, if it gets infected or leaves a cut on Qing Nianyi's lips, Qin Heng will want to beat himself up!

"Well, if it hurts, Sister Nianyi, tell me. Don't bear it, I'll try to be gentler."

Qin Heng spoke to comfort her again, and fortunately this time Qing Nian was willing to respond and nodded slowly.

"Um……"

……

When the conversation was over, silence fell again between the two of them in the narrow street.

Qin Heng slowly moved down and carefully treated the blood stains and wounds on Qing Nianyi's lips from the secondary trauma.

Qing Nianyi just stood there quietly. Although she had been forced to withdraw her arms from her brother's arms, she still held his clothes tightly.

……

It seems like I am afraid that my brother will suddenly leave me.

She had already lost once, so there was no chance for her to make the same mistake again...

"...The person who was chatting with my brother just now...is he...his friend?..."

In the silence, Qing Nianyi spoke again, tapping his lips lightly.

The voice is weak and trembling, and the anxiety and emptiness in it are even more so.

Qing Nianyi slowly lowered her eyes, her long hair slowly covering her forehead, making it difficult to see her expression. Only the hand holding the corner of her brother's clothes began to tremble slightly with anxiety again...

Qin Heng, who was still wiping Qing Nianyi's wound, was stunned when he heard this.

His hands stiffened, but he quickly resumed tending to the wound.

...It turned out that the other party had seen him chatting with Xia Lin and his wife.

What's funny is that I shamelessly lied to the other party and said that I was going to buy water...

Qin Heng lowered his head in shame, and after noticing the eyes of Qing Nian looking at him, he spoke apologetically.

"I'm sorry, Sister Nianyi... the one who chatted with me at the beginning-"

Qin Heng had lied to begin with, and now he wanted to tell the other person everything. But just when he was about to say that Xia Lin was his sister's friend, he suddenly realized

"——That was a senior I knew in high school. The guy next to her is her husband. Although she looks young, she's almost going to be a mother."

Qin Heng smiled lightly and explained to Qing Nian in a brisk tone.

Although I lied again, claiming that the other person was my senior

But Qin Heng also knew deeply at this time that if he told Qing Nianyi now that he actually already had a sister...

Her condition might be even worse than it is now... This is why Butler Ling asked me to take good care of her...

Everyone has selfish desires, big or small, without exception. Since Qing Nianyi has acknowledged him as his brother, he naturally wants to get some kind of emotional support or spiritual support from him.

The funny thing is... Qin Heng himself thinks that he has a "special" and "favorite" relationship with Qing Nianyi.

……

Until the smile Qin Heng showed when he saw her with another man today...

So - everyone is selfish, and Qin Heng himself is no exception

"I'm sorry, Sister Nianyi, I didn't mean to lie to you. It's just that after chatting with the other party, I forgot the time. I was afraid that you would be unhappy, so..."

Qin Heng tried his best to explain, his face full of shame.

……

When I heard my brother explain to me that she was just a senior and was already married...

Finally, a little light flashed in Qingnian's indifferent eyes...

Not long ago, when she saw her brother with another woman

It was as if a pillar of support had been lost in my heart. The fear and dead silence of losing an important person descended upon me again, sweeping over my entire body, just like that night fifteen years ago...

At that moment, all Qing Nian could think of was to confront the woman immediately and protect her brother behind her.

That was hers, her brother, her only one now.

No matter what, she would never give up her brother.

absolute!!!!

……

It was not until he saw another man appear on the side that Qing Nianyi slowly stopped.

Watching the sweet interaction between the man and the woman, and the younger brother laughing beside them

She finally realized that she had some misunderstandings...

But even so, the fear that had already risen in her heart still existed, constantly irritating her already extremely fragile nerves...

Looking at her brother not far away, she couldn't touch him even if she stretched out her hand. The short distance now made her extremely annoyed, and a feeling of suffocation gradually surged in her heart.

...I don't want to...I don't want to just watch him from a distance...

...I don't want to wait here all the time...

……

I want to bring her brother back immediately and keep him by my side, but I won't go.

Always be alone

forever……
