Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

"The hair color and eye color are too similar." With Theresa as an example, Leah quickly came to her senses and answered casually. Maybe it was because of the similarity that she felt familiar, but those worries didn't seem that simple.

Kiana was still just a girl after all. After knocking down another person, she had used up most of her strength. There were still four or five biker gangs besieging her. She could only keep smashing things around her and keep retreating, waiting for her strength to recover. She raised her hand again but was caught off guard by a wakizashi. Fresh red blood immediately gushed out of her fair arm. "Hiss..."

This one blow almost made the girl lose all her strength, and she could only run backwards in pain.

Leia's eyes suddenly shrank, and she became emotional subconsciously. She said anxiously: "Yune, that girl is injured!"

Shen Yunie pinched the wrist of the last enemy and knocked him down. After hearing this, he turned to look at the girl. He frowned and walked quickly from behind.

Kiana threw a few stools, but because she didn't have the strength to do so, the other party just threw them aside at will. Her resistance made the bikers even more angry.

The people in the barbecue restaurant were already crowded together. Except for the two children, no one dared to step forward to confront the crazy bikers. At the front of the crowd was a girl wearing the school uniform of Qianyu Academy. When she saw her companions injured, she opened her eyes wide and subconsciously stepped forward but stopped after a few steps. No one knew what she was thinking in her heart, and she watched the bikers approach Kiana.

The biker approached the girl, looking ferocious and ready to use a weapon, but before he could do anything, he was kicked hard to the ground.

Shen Yunie looked at them coldly, and started to attack them immediately without caring whether they reacted or not. In the blink of an eye, they were all knocked down. He then came to the girl and squatted down to check her wound.

"You..." Before Kiana could come to her senses, the people in front of her were suddenly knocked to the ground. Then a handsome face appeared in front of her, and she subconsciously shrank back, "Thank you for helping me."

"Kiana!" After watching for a long time, the girl named Mei finally came forward. The shocking wounds of her companions in her sight made her eyes red, and she showed regret on her face, "How are you?"

"It's okay, I'm very strong, don't worry, Mei." Kiana, who was frowning in pain a second ago, smiled the next second. She wanted to raise her hand, but she was in so much pain that she dared not move and could only look at her helplessly, "I can protect you, now you believe me, right?"

Shen Yunie took a quick glance and realized that the girl who was asking the question was the bullied girl on the rooftop of Qianyu Academy. Presumably, it was Kiana who saved her last time.

"There are no broken bones, but you need to go to the hospital for stitches." He said calmly, and a sleeve was torn off like paper and wrapped around the girl's arm to temporarily stop the bleeding.

Taking this opportunity, Leia began to look at the girl carefully. Her pretty face and delicate features did give her an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but unlike the trust she had in Theresa, she felt more of a sense of worry when facing Kiana.

The girl's arm was scratched and her heart began to tense up.

I don't know who called the Metropolitan Police Department, and the sound of police cars was heard outside the restaurant. The customers inside saw that all the bikers were knocked down and they scattered. Some even ran out of the door because of fear.

"I'll have a police car take you to the hospital later." Shen Yunie stood up and saw several police cars stop and officers rushing over. He went to meet them and said, "The bikers have been subdued. Not only did they spread rumors, they also deliberately hurt people."

As he spoke, he handed the ID in his pocket to one of the police officers. The other officer looked at the young man and then at him with a surprised look. The man saluted and said, "Thank you for your help this time. Don't worry, we won't let these guys go easily."

Kiana, who was still sitting on the ground, froze when she saw the police entering the restaurant. Mei was the same. The two girls looked at each other, and after understanding each other's eyes, Mei helped Kiana up and sneaked out of the restaurant with the crowd.

Leah, who had been observing the two girls, saw them leave and quickly said, "Yune, they're leaving!"

Shen Yunie was a little confused. He looked back and saw that the two girls were indeed gone. Did they not want to go to the hospital? He followed them out of the restaurant. Mei supported Kiana and walked slowly. He followed them and said, "What are you two going to do? If you don't sew up your wounds, there will be problems."

Kiana turned her head and looked at the boy, and the next moment the two girls suddenly ran forward and quickly entered an alley. Seeing the figure disappear, Shen Yunie was stunned for a few seconds before he came to his senses and chased after him. The injured girl naturally couldn't run faster than him, a superman, and he saw the figures of the two as soon as he entered the alley.

"Why are you running?" he asked doubtfully, "You are students of Qianyu College, right? If you run away now, the Metropolitan Police Department will come to your school to look for you in a few days."

"Yune, you can't do this." Leah wanted to speak up for the two girls, but she couldn't find a chance to stand on their side. She could only add in a low voice, "Kiana is injured."

Shen Yunie's words seemed to intimidate the two girls, and they stood still and dared not run away. The two girls' faces were full of entanglement and hesitation. After a long time, Meiyi took a few steps forward and explained: "Thank you for your kindness, but Kiana can't go to the hospital, otherwise, otherwise..."

"What else?" Shen Yunie's tone became much colder. He had been chasing criminals recently. If the two girls ran away like this, he might just think they were accomplices or that something happened to them.

"Kiana doesn't have a Changkong City ID. If she goes to the hospital, she'll be discovered as an illegal immigrant!"

11. Leah's Feeling

"No ID?" Shen Yunie finally understood the two girls' unspeakable secret. Kiana did not look like a person from the Far East or Shenzhou. Her facial features and appearance were like a European girl.

He didn't expect this to be the reason. Then how did she come to the Far East and enter Changkong City?

Having said this, Mei bowed deeply to the good-looking boy and said apologetically: "Thank you for saving Kiana. We really can't go to the hospital. Please let us go."

Shen Yunie did not say anything else. The two girls did not look like vicious people, and knowing that they were students of Qianyu College, he could go to them if he had any problems. So he simply let the two girls leave.

Leah suddenly said, "I remember there is a medical kit for treating wounds at home."

"Let's go to my house. I have a medical kit. If you don't take care of the wound, you don't know what will happen." Kiana and Mei were ready to leave, but the boy's words stopped them. The two girls hesitated for a while, then nodded and agreed.

Shen Yunie took a taxi and drove the two girls towards the single apartment. The injury on Kiana's hand did not get worse, but the bleeding was stopped well. Tens of minutes later, the three of them got off the car together. Only then did he ask the question that had been puzzling him for a long time; "Without an ID, how did you come to the Far East and enroll in Qianyu College?"

"I came here by boat." Kiana said a little embarrassedly. Shen Yunie already knew what kind of boat she was talking about, but he was not interested in paying attention to it. The girl continued to explain, "Then a few days after arriving in Changkong City, I met Mei. She helped me find a place to live and to stay at Qianyu Academy."

Shen Yunie's gaze shifted to Meiyi, "Isn't Qianyu College closed? How did you get out?"

"Hehe, this is also thanks to Mei."

I didn't expect that she was a young lady, otherwise how could she have such great ability. Taking the two girls back to the house, Shen Yunie went to the bedroom and took out the medical box, took out the disinfectant alcohol and gauze, and then turned back to take out the needle and medicine. Kiana seemed a little scared of these, sitting on the sofa and shrinking back to hide in Meiyi's arms.

"Leave it to me, thank you." Mei took the needle and thread and patted the girl's head as if comforting a child, "It's okay, Kiana."

Shen Yunie didn't quite believe that Meiyi could sew up the wound. When she was about to refuse, Liya suddenly appeared and said, "I'll watch them. Yunie, go and take care of things."

After hesitating for a few seconds, he turned around and left. There were many things to deal with next. As soon as he walked back to the bedroom, his cell phone vibrated. It was a message from Okano Yu. The action on the other side was to quickly arrest the bikers and start questioning them. From the other party, he learned that this plan was commissioned by someone with a large sum of money, but they didn't know who the client was.

It is very dangerous to have rumors spread everywhere, and this is a real thing. If someone really investigates the collapse, it will come to light.

"Ouch!" The girl cried out in pain, probably because she was being disinfected with alcohol.

Kiana gasped in pain, which was much more painful than a cut from a knife. But the pain didn't last long and suddenly disappeared. Her body felt as warm as if wrapped in the sun. Before she could enjoy it, Mei continued to treat the wound.

"These guys are just waiting for something to happen." Shen Yunie felt a bit of a headache. Who on earth would do such a thing that would do no good at all?

He sent the summary of the recent news to Theresa and Himeko, who quickly replied that they had begun investigating the matter. He just had to follow the original plan before sending out the next order. The boy leaned against the chair, rubbing his temples with a headache to refresh himself. A figure quietly appeared in the room. It was Leah who had returned.

"It's done." Leah said as she carried the little boy from the chair to the bed and rested his head on her thighs. "Is everything done?"

Resting his head on his comfortable legs, with a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose, Shen Yunie suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Leah, saying: "There is still one thing that has not been resolved. Sister Leah, are you familiar with Kiana?"

He had long noticed that Leah's mood towards the white-haired girl was not right, more worried and nervous? These two points alone were enough to make him jealous.

"It's not that I'm familiar with her. I feel the same familiarity as Theresa." There was no need to lie to the little boy Leah. She felt familiarity and worry for Kiana, and nothing else. "Maybe it's because we both have white hair and blue eyes? There are people like this in Europe too!"

Shen Yunie looked at her chin without saying anything, as if he was questioning her, but in fact, he had no doubts. Instead, Leah felt that the little boy didn't believe her, and asked dissatisfiedly: "Otherwise, is she my daughter?"

"Impossible!" This time Shen Yunie said without hesitation, stretched out his hand to hug Leah's waist and pushed her down, then hugged her tightly. Whether it was a daughter or something else, Sister Leah was his own Sister Leah, not someone else's.

"Fool."

The two of them rested for a while, and Leah returned to the space. Shen Yunie then got up and walked out of the room to check on the two girls. His sight fell on the living room, where Kiana was sleeping on the sofa with two coats covering her. He took a look and returned to the bedroom to take out a blanket to cover the girl. He observed closely and saw a beautiful and impeccable face and the girl was very quiet when she was asleep.

Shen Yunie didn't take Leia's casual mention of her daughter seriously. Kiana's slightly impatient personality was totally incompatible with Leia.

He stood up. Another girl, Mei, was in the kitchen at this time. She was wearing a white shirt and a black pleated skirt, cooking something. Seeing the master appear, she turned around and said, "Sorry. I saw some vegetables in the refrigerator and wanted to cook them for Kiana. Is that okay?"

"It's okay." Shen Yunie shook his head. He didn't care about this. He looked at the girl in front of him carefully. She was also much prettier than ordinary people and exuded a ladylike temperament of a lady from a noble family. There was also a different aura. Because it was not polite to look at her for too long, he retracted his gaze and said calmly, "It's not a good thing to keep apologizing. There may be something wrong with your thinking."

As if this sentence hit the mark, Meiyi's body stiffened and she slowly turned around. She didn't say anything to continue cooking. Not long after, several dishes were ready. Shen Yunie had stored the porridge for Liya in the refrigerator, and now it was made into a tonic. The girl held a bowl in front of him.

"I'll pay for the food later." Mei also made a small bowl for herself. The girl was very hungry but had no appetite because her companion was injured. After drinking a small sip of soup, her pale face gradually regained some color.

12. Show me your back

It was still noon, Shen Yunie and Meiyi had a simple meal, and then he saw the girl get up and fumble in her pocket, and soon her expression became a little stiff. She pulled out a card and said, "I'll go get the money for you, the money for the food and medicine."

"You don't have to give it to me. These are not valuable things." Shen Yunie said quickly. She didn't expect that she cared so much about it.

Meiyi did not listen. The girl was determined to pay back the money and turned around and left the room quickly. After the door was closed, Shen Yunie shrugged helplessly, got up and went to get a glass of water to drink. Liya appeared and leaned over with curiosity to look at the sleeping Kiana. Her pretty face looked very cute after sleeping. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

Looking back at the little boy, I found that he was not calm even when drinking water, and his eyes were staring at this side.

"Are you so jealous?"

Shen Yunie put down the cup of water without drinking a sip and turned his head to the other side to show that he didn't care.

Leia felt like laughing. She turned her gaze back to Kiana and covered her with the blanket. "I don't know where this child came from. Maybe he has traveled a lot and suffered a lot just like us."

"I don't know, but it definitely won't be more difficult than what we have suffered." Shen Yunie said lightly. Even he couldn't expect why she suddenly said such obviously jealous words.

Leah couldn't help but smile, and an idea to tease the little boy suddenly came to her mind. She lowered her head for a long time without speaking, as if she was thinking. Shen Yunie thought he had talked about the topic to death, so he reached out to take the water cup and drank it, and then he heard it.

"Kiana looks so pitiful, and you don't have a girlfriend, Yu Nie, why don't you take her back with you. That way I can take care of your two children."

"Cough, cough, cough——" Shen Yunie was instantly choked by the water. He put down the cup and looked at Leah in shock, "No! Besides, Meiyi will never agree!"

He would never bring back someone who would compete with him for Leia, and it would be best if he never had one.

Leah had a bright smile on her face. Seeing the little boy's shocked and confused expression, she consoled him, "Okay, okay, I was just kidding. I love you the most, no one else."

Shen Yunie breathed a sigh of relief. The door of the room suddenly opened, and Leah instantly returned to the space. The emotions on the boy's face returned to normal at the same time. Meiyi, who had been out for a while, returned to the room. The girl handed over a small stack of money in her hand, and her pretty eyebrows were furrowed as if something bad had happened. "Here is your money. I want to ask you for something. By the way, what is your name?"

"Shen Yunie." Shen Yunie took the money. The thickness of it was obviously more than the amount he should return to him. He was a little confused about what the girl wanted to ask of him.

Mei silently memorized the name in her heart, and then began to explain: "I have to go take care of some things. Can Kiana stay at your house for a while? Let her know when she wakes up."

"Do you need my help?" Shen Yunie asked casually.

"No need, thank you." Mei shook her head. After staying for a short while, she stood up again and left again after looking at Kiana who was sleeping peacefully.

The room fell silent again. Shen Yunie returned to the bedroom to rest while Liya continued to look at the white-haired girl curiously. Then, she left the living room at the dissatisfied urging of the little boy. It was afternoon when the two people who were watching TV in the bedroom heard the girl's voice coming from outside.

"Mei, Mei?"

Shen Yunie walked out of the room. Kiana had already woken up in the living room. She rubbed her eyes sleepily and looked around, but did not see her companions.

"She said she went out to take care of something and hasn't come back yet." Shen Yunie walked forward, poured a glass of water for the girl and sat down opposite her.

The girl, who was a little confused at first, suddenly opened her eyes wide and asked quickly, "Did Mei tell you what you were going to do? Would it be something dangerous?"

"It shouldn't be, otherwise she wouldn't have such a calm expression." Shen Yunie's eyes were attracted by the girl's fair arms. Only then did he realize that the needles, thread and gauze in the medical box had not been used. Kiana seemed to have only been disinfected once, and he didn't notice it because she was covered with clothes before.

In one afternoon, the wound on her arm was almost healed. The bleeding had stopped and the original wound began to heal into a shallow scar. It would probably take until tomorrow for the wound to fully recover. This healing speed was comparable to that of a Honkai user. Shen Yunie looked at her with a strange look in her eyes.

"How did your injury recover so quickly?" Shen Yunie began to sense but did not detect any trace of Honkai energy from the girl, which made him even more confused. Similarly, Liya was not able to check that she might not be a Honkai user.

"My injury." Kiana came back to her senses from her nervousness, looked down at her arm and realized that it didn't hurt as much as before. The feeling today was also a little different. After falling asleep, she always had a warm feeling, which made her sleep very comfortably.

She smiled and waved her fair arms in front of the boy. "I'm almost well now. In fact, my body is very strong and I recover very quickly. I don't need to go to the hospital at all."

"Honkai Energy User?" Shen Yunie asked Cecilia.

"It seems not. There is no Houkai energy in the body."

The two were full of curiosity about the girl. They could not feel that the girl was the same as themselves. Shen Yunie knew a way to confirm it. He said seriously: "Qiana, show me your back."

"Hey! Why?" Hearing this, Kiana's eyes suddenly changed when she looked at him. She shrank back in fear and pulled the blanket over herself, and asked with a vigilant face, "You, what are you going to do? Don't think that you can take advantage of me just because you helped me once!"

"I'm not..." Shen Yunie opened his mouth and didn't know how to explain for a moment. It was indeed strange to say this and he was a man. But he still had to be sure of his thoughts. If he left the Honkai Energy alone, it would be a very serious matter.

He explained helplessly: "I'm not trying to take advantage of you. Just take a look because I helped you. I need to confirm something."

"..." Kiana looked at him with more alertness. It was unusual for a guy to suddenly look at someone's back. But he saved her life, and if she didn't agree to his request, it would seem that she was ungrateful. The girl pulled the blanket over and hid her whole body in it, struggling with the chaotic thoughts in her mind.

After a long while, she poked out half of her face and said, "Then take a look."

"it is good!"

The girl sat down with her back to him, holding the corner of her shirt with both hands and moving it slowly upwards. Shen Yunie didn't know why the atmosphere was so strange. He obviously didn't have any thoughts in his mind. He just wanted to confirm whether she was born with a stigma or was about to awaken.

The shirt was pulled up to reveal a slender waist, and the skin was white and delicate like white jade. After a few minutes, Kiana was about to pull it down to the shoulders, and Shen Yunie immediately focused his attention and looked.

"Hey, are you watching this?" Kiana asked nervously. She could vaguely feel as if there were two pairs of eyes looking at her back.

"Um...can you take off your bra?"

13. What makes Kiana unique

Although there were many misunderstandings, Shen Yunie still managed to see the girl's back. There was no trace of holy marks between her shoulder blades. She didn't look like she was about to awaken and grow. If he looked a little further, he could see the girl covering her chest with her hands, and her delicate face was flushed.

"Don't look!" Feeling the gaze, Kiana quickly pulled down her shirt and covered her body with a blanket. She turned around and stared at Shen Yunie warily, "We are now even, you are not allowed to order me to do anything again."

After confirming that the girl had no signs of stigmata, Shen Yunie said helplessly: "I don't want to order you around, and I don't want to take advantage of you."

Seeing that he couldn't explain himself clearly, he simply took off his clothes, turned around under the girl's horrified gaze, and pointed at his back and said, "I just want to confirm whether you have the same mark on your back as me."

A blue circle with pairs of wings stacked inside like blooming flowers.

"Hey, is this a tattoo?" Kiana looked at the mark in surprise. The boy's fair and delicate skin made her want to touch it. She suppressed the thought in her mind and asked in confusion, "How could I have such a mark? Can it be generated automatically?"

Shen Yunie did not answer. After clearing up the misunderstanding, he put on his clothes. How could a girl without stigmata have such a strong recovery ability? There are so many strange people in the world. He wanted to report Kiana's strange situation to Ji Zi for questioning.

"Shen Yunie, Shen Yunie?" Kiana called the boy's name, and was immediately puzzled when she didn't get a response. She simply stopped caring about it and turned on the TV with the remote control to watch.

Shen Yunie and Lia discussed it and finally decided not to tell Ji Zi about it. She was just a high school girl. If she told Ji Zi, a researcher would probably come to check her body, disrupting her peaceful life and possibly dragging her into the world of collapse. That would be a road of no return.

Subconsciously, he walked to the kitchen. The stored dishes were all used up, leaving only the tonic that Mei made at noon. He heated it up and brought it back to the living room, placing it in front of the girl. "This is the tonic Mei made for you."

Hearing these two words, Kiana immediately turned her eyes to him. It seemed that she had been hungry for a long time because she had been sleeping. The girl took the spoon and ate in small bites. Shen Yunie sat down opposite, his eyes fell on the girl's cheek, thinking about her specialness, until the phone vibrated and then he withdrew his eyes.

Okano Yu sent a video, the screen was zoomed in a lot, it seemed to be a surveillance camera on a street corner. A blurry figure staggered into the corner, most of the body was hidden in a brown coat. Shen Yunie didn't know why he sent him this video, and he played it back several times before he realized the problem, the combination of the coat and shirt looked a little familiar.

He raised his head and looked at Kiana, then at the coat on the sofa, which was also brown and white.
