Xiao Qiong and Li Huan finally escaped.

But they didn't expect to meet Xiao Lan downstairs.

Xiao Lan looked at the panicked two people in front of her with a pair of big eyes, and suddenly felt so sad.

"You, why are you here?"

The moment Xiao Qiong saw Xiao Lan, a bad premonition suddenly surged in her heart.

"Brother......

Xiao Lan just glanced at him with a disappointed face, shook her head slightly, and turned around and left without looking back.

"Wait, Xiaolan!"

Xiao Qiong suddenly felt that if Xiao Lan was let go like this today, then the estrangement between the two brothers and sisters in this life would not disappear.

Xiao Qiong hurriedly caught up with Xiao Lan's back and gradually disappeared in front of Li Huan's eyes.

At this time, Li Huan looked at the hospital building with a pale face, and suddenly met a woman's gaze.

This, this is ......

Li Huan was stunned for a moment, isn't this Tao Tao's mother?

At this time, Tao Tao's mother was standing in front of the hospital window, looking through the glass at everything downstairs.

From a long distance, he couldn't see his expression clearly, but Li Huan had an illusion, an illusion that the woman had seen through everything about herself.

Li Huan hurriedly turned around and walked out of the gate of the hospital.

Although she failed this time, she still let Xiao Qiong keep her and her mother's secrets.

It's just that......

Li Huan thought of Xiao Lan's immature face.

According to Xiao Qiong's character, he will definitely give up his most important thing for the sake of his only sister.

Li Huan returned home preoccupied, ready to think about his next plan.

From that day on, Xiao Lan, who witnessed the secret of the two people, became Li Huan's biggest obstacle.

Xiao Lan closed the door when she got home, and took the first step to stop Xiao Qiong from the door.

"Xiaolan, you open the door."

Xiao Qiong looked at the tightly closed door and suddenly sighed.

He put his hand on the door panel and repeated it several times, but he didn't dare to knock.

He was afraid of scaring his sister.

Xiao Lan has been very timid since she was a child, and she always pretends to be strong carefully, just to not worry her brother.

But in fact, the one who knows his sister best is his brother Xiao Qiong.

When I was a child, my parents quarreled, and there was a loud banging noise in their house, and Xiao Qiong always ran to her sister's room as soon as possible.

At that time, the little Xiao Lan always trembled and stood on tiptoe to open the door between the brother and sister.

"Brother!"

When Xiao Lan saw her brother's tall figure, she immediately threw down the rag doll in her hand and threw herself into her brother's arms at once.

At that time, the brother and sister who depended on each other for their lives never thought that such a thing would happen today.

"I'm sorry, Xiaolan......"

Xiao Qiong knew that Xiao Lan must have seen everything.

He had never kept a secret in front of Xiao Lan before, but now he ......

Xiao Qiong didn't want to defend anything, because whatever he said now was useless.

"You go!"

Xiao Lan's back was against the door, covering her face, and slowly sliding down the door panel and sitting on the ground.

"I don't have a place to go except our home."

Xiao Qiong's hands were propping up on the door, and there seemed to be drops of crystal liquid dripping on the ground.

He didn't know if it was sweat or tears.

"You can go to my sister!"

Really......

Xiao Qiong smiled helplessly.

"I hate her."

When Xiao Lan heard this sentence coming out of her brother's mouth, she felt inexplicably fake.

"If you hate her, why do you go to her?"

Xiao Lan's voice came muffled through his palm.

"I ......"

Xiao Qiong's words were exhausted for a moment.

He turned around and sat on the ground like Xiao Lan, with his back against the door.

At this time, there was only one door between the brother and sister.

Across the door, their home.

"I'm sorry, but ......"

There are some things that Xiao Qiong doesn't want to tell her sister, because sometimes, the more she knows, the more dangerous it will be.

"Don't apologize to me."

Xiao Lan's voice went straight to Xiao Qiong's ears through the door panel, but he couldn't hear his sister's emotions.

"You're just hiding it from me."

After Xiao Qiong heard this, she hugged her head in pain.

"I don't know when you won't tell me anything."

Xiao Lan didn't intend to let Xiao Qiong go like this, she pressed step by step, wanting to hear the truth from her brother's mouth.

"Xiaolan, I want to protect you."

Xiao Qiong still insisted on her own thoughts.

He wouldn't tell Xiao Lan these things, she was too young to be involved in this chaos.

"You see, you still don't trust me."

Xiao Lan curled the corners of her mouth and smiled, and said this sentence that broke Xiao Qiong's heart.

"How can you say that?"

Xiao Qiong stood up from the ground suddenly, but accidentally pulled the previous wound.

"Hiss......"

He couldn't help but let out the sound of inhaling.

"You!"

After Xiao Lan heard her brother's inhalation, she quickly got up from the ground and opened the door in a panic.

She saw Xiao Qiong looking at her with a gentle face.

The two brothers have been through this scene countless times.

At that time, the two of them were on the windowsill of the house together, watching the people coming and going downstairs, waiting for their father.

But later, Xiao Qiong gave up waiting, and chose to experience the growth that she had to experience in this life at an early age.

But Xiao Lan still guards the innocence that belongs to the brother and sister at this age.

From that day on, the little Xiao Lan stepped on a chair and climbed the high windowsill by herself every day, waiting for her brother to come back from school.

Every time Xiao Qiong came back from school, she would raise her head to look at her sister who was sitting at the window waving to her.

That was the first time he experienced the warmth of home.

And so, the two poor children kept each other company forever.

"Xiaolan."

Xiao Qiong looked at her sister's crying red eyes, and walked over in distress and hugged her tightly in her arms.

I'm sorry, but I just can't say it.

He didn't dare to say anything more, but Xiao Lan didn't dare to listen anymore.

Because the two brothers and sisters will never need this word of apology.

"Listen to me, okay?"

Xiao Qiong let go of her sister's thin body and pulled her to sit on the sofa.

"You only have this one chance."

Xiao Lan wrinkled her nose and looked at him viciously.

Xiao Qiong smiled, stretched out her hand and gently wiped the tears on her sister's face.

"It's really wrong for me to do this."

Xiao Qiong raised his head and leaned on the sofa, looking at the dim light hanging on the roof of the shed, he touched his chest, the heart that was already cold was still beating slightly.

Xiao Qiong told Xiao Lan everything that happened on the barren mountain before.

When Xiao Lan heard this, she stretched out her hand and held her brother's cold palm tightly.

"Do you blame yourself for not stopping that girl at the time?"

Xiao Lan looked at her tired brother and asked softly.

"Yes."

Xiao Qiong suddenly pulled the corners of her mouth and laughed mockingly.

Xiao Lan knew that he was laughing at himself.

"It's okay brother, it's not your fault."

At that time, Xiao Lan actually didn't know whether she should blame her brother for this matter.

She knew that she and her brother could grow up in such an environment and seemed to be safe, but in fact, she and her brother's insides had gradually rotted.

"No, I did it wrong."

Xiao Qiong shook her head lightly after hearing her sister's comfort.

"You know, from that moment on, I felt like I had changed, I couldn't even look at myself."

Xiao Qiong touched her chest again.

"Do you know Xiaolan, the moment Tao Tao rushed out, I hated myself so badly at that time."

Xiao Lan was silent for a moment.

She felt that it was really hard to be kind

"But Xiaolan, that girl changed me."

Xiao Qiong turned her head and stared at Xiao Lan's eyes tightly.

"She's the most special girl I've ever met, she's so kind, kind, it's heartbreaking......"

When Xiao Qiong said this, the scene in her mind once again showed Tao Tao blocking the knife for Jiang Jinchen.

"I seem to be ......"

When Xiao Qiong said this, she suddenly fell silent.

Xiao Lan didn't care about what Xiao Qiong didn't confide in just now, she was just very confused now.

"But you ......"

Xiao Qiong heard Xiao Lan's words and stopped, laughed, and then asked the question her sister wanted to ask instead of her.

"You're asking, why do I do that to that girl when I like her so much?"

"Hmm."

Xiao Lan looked at her brother's eyes and nodded seriously.

"Because...... I don't want to lose her. ”

"You ......"

After Xiao Lan heard this, she was suddenly stunned.

What does this mean, brother?

"Why, why can Jiang Jinchen become the one who was healed by her, but I myself can only be completely forgotten by her."

Xiao Lan looked at her brother who was already expressionless at this time in shock.

No, it's not like that.

Xiao Lan shook her head desperately, and grabbed Xiao Qiong's arm tightly with both hands.

"No, you can't think like that!"

However, Xiao Qiong said to herself as if she hadn't heard.

"So, I'm going to make her forget about the bastard who saved her life and doesn't know how to be grateful!"

Xiao Lan looked at Xiao Qiong, who was getting stranger and stranger, and cried all of a sudden.

This is not the brother she was familiar with before.

Although the former brother is a seemingly indifferent person, he doesn't like to talk or meddle in things, but he exudes a gentle feeling in his bones.

And this time.

"Do you know that you're going to hurt that girl by doing this, and what did she do wrong?"

Xiao Lan hugged her brother's cold body tightly, trying to wake him up, but to no avail.

I saw Xiao Qiong shake her head and said.

"I'm not just doing it for myself, it's ......"

Xiao Qiong said and touched her sister's head here.

"And to fulfill my father's plan."

Xiao Lan was suddenly stunned when she heard it.

Father's plan?

It turned out that my brother was hiding so many things about himself.

Xiao Lan looked at the brother in front of her, who was strange to her, smiled softly at her, and spit out the words that had tormented her for a lifetime.

"You'll keep it a secret for me."
