1858 Side Story (8)
“Alright, you’re full.” The young boy looked at the rice in the girl’s bowl. It was already empty. Even though she didn’t eat much of the food on the table, it was obviously enough for her to fill her stomach. “But… I still want to eat…” The girl looked at the food on the table that the boy took away and said pitifully. The boy looked back coldly. “No.” Then, he walked out without looking back. The girl sat there alone. The table was already empty. Inexplicably, tears the size of beans surged out and two streams of tears rolled down.
The young boy walked in and saw the little girl crying. Even though she wasn’t making any sound, tears kept falling. The young boy walked over with a sullen face and reached out to wipe the tears on the little girl’s face. “As I said, it’s useless even if you cry.”
The little girl cried even more fiercely. She pushed the young boy’s hand away fiercely with her little hand and stood on the ground with her little body. She raised her little face that was full of tears and shouted, “I hate brother! Brother is a bad person! Annoying! Annoying!” After shouting this, her little body ran out. The young boy was stunned on the spot and looked at the little girl’s back as she ran away in a daze. In the end, he sneered.
“Annoying? Then so be it…”
For the entire afternoon, the little girl held her face and glared at the young boy sitting not far away from her fiercely with her big eyes from time to time. The young boy continued reading that book that was very difficult to understand expressionlessly. Occasionally, he raised his black eyes and glanced at the little girl. The little girl turned her little face away angrily. The young boy lowered his black eyes. She was indeed a kid.
The entire afternoon passed in a very awkward atmosphere. The little girl remained sullen, while the young boy was calm and didn’t care at all. Time passed slowly and it was dusk again. The little girl glared at the young boy a few times indignantly. She didn’t want to talk to him! However… She was hungry.
The young boy noticed his sister’s gaze and looked out of the window. He gently closed the book with his hand and walked over silently. He reached out and held the little girl in his arms. The little girl was still pouting. The young boy was expressionless as he held her chubby body firmly with his hand and walked towards the kitchen.
Dinner was only vegetables and no meat, which made the little girl dissatisfied again. However, the little boy sat there expressionlessly. No matter how unwilling the little girl was, she knew that she couldn’t change it. She could only swallow everything she didn’t like to eat indignantly. Before she could eat a few mouthfuls, the food was taken away again.
The moon rose at night. The little girl lay on the bed angrily with a gloomy face. The young boy, on the other hand, sat by the bed very calmly and squeezed her calf gently with his hand. The chubby and almost boneless feeling made the young boy frown slightly. Were his father and mother spoiling her too much?
“Father and Mother aren’t back yet…” The little girl whispered pitifully with tears in her eyes. The young boy’s handsome face was cold. “Father and Mother won’t be back for a while. I know what you’re thinking in your mind. Why do you have to stay with your annoying brother for so long?”
The little girl couldn’t help but blush. She pouted and didn’t say anything. The young boy said in a low voice, “Are you feeling uncomfortable today?”
The little girl shook her head. The young man heaved a sigh of relief in his mind and took his hand away to cover her with the blanket. “Go to sleep.”
His tone was a bit fierce. The little girl turned her little face around, looking a bit angry. Time passed quietly until the sweet sound of sleep came. The young boy finally got up and left. He walked out of the closed door gently and entered his room. He looked at the book on the table and frowned fiercely. Even his father and mother couldn’t find a way. It was useless even if he read these things… Sighing, the young boy sat down and continued studying. The night was silent, with only the sound of the pages flipping occasionally.
“Hm… What’s this… It smells so good…” The little girl on the bed stuck her head out and sniffed hard. Her little body also crawled out of the bed, but her black eyes were closed tightly. The little girl’s little body searched for this fragrance and slowly climbed off the bed. She sniffed. “Hm… It smells so good…” It was the fragrance of food she was familiar with. It must be delicious!
She got off the bed with her eyes closed and gently pushed the door open. Her bare feet were tempted by the fragrance of the food as she walked forward. The little girl smelled it and followed the smell to a corner unknowingly. A figure stood in the shadows. Seeing her walk over, he couldn’t help but smile.
“I can lure you out with food even when you’re asleep. Little Bun… You’re truly too cute.” A soft whisper came with a smile as his body walked out of the shadows. His soft golden hair glittered with a faint golden light under the moonlight and he looked at the chubby little girl in front of him with his golden eyes. Seeing that she was forcing her eyes to look for food, he couldn’t help but bend his finger and flick her smooth forehead gently. “It’s time to wake up, Little Bun.”
“Ugh!” The little girl opened her black eyes after being flicked gently. There was only confusion in them. It was obvious that she hadn’t woken up at all. She found that someone was standing in front of her. The little girl reached out and rubbed her eyes. The golden-haired young man squatted down with a smile and shook the fragrant food in his hand. The little girl’s eyes immediately brightened!
The depths of the young man’s golden eyes were full of smiles. After the little girl woke up, she couldn’t help but smile when she saw him with her black eyes. “Brother Golden Hair, you’re here.”
“That’s right, Little Bun. I’m here to give you delicious food.” The golden-haired young man squeezed the little girl’s face with his fingers and handed over the things in his hand. The little girl smiled foolishly and took the food, eating it in big mouthfuls. Seeing how she was wolfing down the food, the golden-haired young man frowned. “Eat slowly. Are your parents starving you?”
The little girl shook her head and mumbled, “Father and Mother… They’re both out… Brother, Brother doesn’t let me eat…”
The golden-haired young man frowned even more tightly after hearing that. “That kid doesn’t let you eat?”
The little girl thought for a moment and corrected him seriously. “Brother let me eat, but I don’t eat much.”
The little girl nodded and soon finished the food in her hand. “This is delicious! Brother Golden Hair, do you have any more?”
The golden-haired young man’s golden eyes were full of smiles. “Of course, but I don’t have them with me. These things are the specialties of our clan. Do you like them?”
