In winter, it gets dark especially fast, and when the carriage returns to the palace, it is already the time for the lights.

Ji Yu originally planned to go to Dabao's courtyard, but the little eunuch who came to pick him up said that the prince was in Yuewei Courtyard, and he was there all afternoon, and he didn't listen to the class.

Ji Yu pondered for a while, turned back halfway, and went directly to the Warm Pavilion.

The table was full of delicate and delicious meals, not a single chopstick had been moved, it was cold, and it had been replaced several times.

Seeing Ji Yu come in, the dark clouds on Dabao's face finally dispersed.

He looked up at Ji Yu, and then lowered his eyes again, looking depressed.

Ji Yu didn't care about him, took off the fox fur and handed it to the maid who came to serve, and went to the charcoal stove to roast the fire.

"Tired, take down the cold food, don't throw it away, just serve it again when it's hot."

Manager Teng went out in the second half of the morning, and he hasn't returned yet, and the others can't persuade Dabao, so they can only follow and hurry. When Ji Yu came back, everyone in the room seemed to have found the backbone, so naturally she said what she said.

The hot meal was quickly served, Ji Yu walked to the warm kang near the window, took away the books that Dabao was not reading at all, and let the food be put aside.

After the little eunuch finished trying the dishes one by one, Ji Yu handed Dabao a pair of chopsticks.

Dabao's lowered gaze fell on the chopsticks, hesitated and hesitated, but still reached out to take it.

Ji Yu was really hungry, so she sat down and started eating.

Dabao didn't move his chopsticks for a while, and there was no mouthful, and he glanced at Ji Yu from time to time, as if he wanted to stop talking.

Ji Yu couldn't see it, and added another meal halfway, and didn't put down the dishes and chopsticks until she was full at seven minutes.

Dabao was also about to follow, and Ji Yu knocked on the table.

"After the bowl is finished, there is no room left."

Dabao glanced at her and honestly picked up the bowl again.

This time, she was stared at by Ji Yu, and she ate faster, and it didn't take long to finish eating.

After the subordinates withdrew from the table, they retreated one after another.

Ji Yu sat opposite him and raised her chin at him, "What do you want to ask?" ”

After doing this before, Dabao finally couldn't hold back.

"You're going to see him?"

"See whom?" Ji Yu asked knowingly.

Dabao's eyes were a little dodgy at Ji Yu's gaze, and he squeezed out two words for a long time.

"Di Rong."

"So you didn't have good classes and bad food this afternoon, just because of him? Are you angry with yourself, or are you angry with me? ”

Ji Yu only remembered that Di Rong bullied him, so when he heard that he went to find Di Rong, he was not happy.

Dabao didn't answer this question, as if he had made up his mind, and looked at Ji Yu directly.

"He's your brother, you know."

This sentence is obviously not a doubt, Ji Yu tasted something wrong from it.

"How do you know? And when did you find out? ”

Dabao blinked, and his long eyelashes drooped.

Ji Yu's expression became a little more serious.

"You're going to sit across from me until dawn?"

Dabao's hand under the table clenched unconsciously.

"He went to our house that time......" he paused, his voice much quieter, "he told me......"

- "I heard that you also have an older brother who was abducted when he was a child......"

- "If that younger brother is found in the future, do you think Ji Yu will still hurt you like now......"

- "You and Ji Yu don't look like each other at all, don't you pick them up...... I look like her brother better than you......"

- "He's not dead, maybe he'll come back one day...... At that time, you impostor, how can you compete with other people's younger brothers......"

Di Rong said a lot that time, and Dabao only got one meaning from his words - he was the real Ji Mu.

It's a lie to say that he is not afraid, so when Di Rong pushed him later, he hit the corner of the table and successfully let Ji Yu drive Di Rong away.

Later, after the note incident, he thought about telling the truth to Ji Yu, but he was diverted, and after the New Year, he learned that Di Rong had left Yeyang, so he never mentioned it again.

I thought there would be no intersection again, but I didn't expect Ji Yu to know.

"I'm not very old, but I'm quite able to hide things!"

Ji Yu was angry and slapped her hand on the table, almost turning around.

But looking at Dabao, who shrank because of his actions, the worried look on his little face, and the panic hidden in the depths of his eyes, he still couldn't be ruthless after all.

"Tell me, why are you willing to tell me now."

Dabao hung his head and said, "I'm afraid you won't forgive me......"

In his heart, he didn't want Ji Yu to know, but the wood was already in the boat. remembered the warning Ji Yu gave him on the night of the twenty-eighth year of the year, and his intuition told him that this was his last chance to be honest.

Ji Yu stayed and put on her shoes, crossed her waist and turned around several times, and turned around to look at Dabao.

"What did I tell you before?"

Dabao snorted.

"If so...... I, I grow into a person who will take revenge and raise a butcher's knife to relatives and friends, you will be disappointed, will you not want me to ......"

"What else?"

"There can never be just the two of us in this world, and there can never be just the two of us in this family......"

"Anything else?"

Dabao pursed his lips and stopped talking, his dark eyes suddenly mist.

"I was wrong." He snorted.

"You're wrong!"

Ji Yu finished speaking sharply, thinking that there were still people waiting outside, she took a deep breath and tried her best to keep her voice restrained.

"Di Rong has bullied you before, and he does have a lot of shortcomings, when you have the ability, you can bully the past yourself, but you shouldn't play that kind of heart."

Luckily, he remembered what he had said.

Ji Yu's heart was a little relieved, but her face was still calm.

"You owe Di Rong an apology."

Dabao lowered his head, and after a long time, nodded.

With this action, there was a click, and a drop of water smashed on the table.

Sure enough, she has grown up, and she is no longer the child who will throw herself into her arms and cry and shout "Sister, I was wrong".

Ji Yu sighed.

He took a candied fruit from the tall plate next to him, then took his tightly clutched hand, broke it, put it in the palm of his hand, and put another one.

"I also said that if your hand is always clenched like this, then you will always have this one candy. Only by opening your hands can you harvest more candy. Now there is one more person in our family, and when he grows up and is sensible, maybe he will also be a brother who can give you candy......"

Dabao did not speak.

He didn't care if Di Rong would give him candy or not, but he knew that the candy in Ji Yu's hand would have one more person.

How could Ji Yu not see his thoughts?

"I am your sister, and always will be—and if you remember this, you should remember the following—that no one can rob you of the love I have given you, unless you ruin it yourself."

Finally, I patted him on the head.

"He won't take anything from you, don't be afraid."

Dabao's shoulders first trembled, and then trembled more and more frequently, and more water droplets fell one after another.

He didn't look up, he didn't speak, he just held the two candied fruits tightly.
