"Don't worry, your parents will be back soon."

The ghost boy nodded, sat down uprightly on the couch, and looked into the kitchen from time to time, where his sister was inside.

I reassured, "I haven't met your parents yet, but it's a good start to see my sister, right?" Is there anything you'd like to say to your sister? ”

The ghost child was happy at first, and then hung his head lonely: "Forget it, sister, she doesn't like me, and I'm afraid that I will scare her." ”

The more I get along, the more I feel that the ghost child is well-behaved and sensible, except when he scares me at home, it's just that he is quite different in age from his sister, how can his sister not like such a younger brother? No wonder he didn't want to get close to her even though he was happy to see his sister.

Confused, the girl came over with an electric kettle full of water, put it on the base to boil water, and put tea leaves in the teapot.

"Uh, what's your name?"

"Zhao Xing."

"Where's your parents, when are you coming back?"

Zhao Xing made a move, then lowered his head, and looked faintly sad: "None of them are at home, and they have been traveling for more than half a year." ”

"Been traveling for more than half a year?" I was surprised, "And leave you alone at home?" ”

Zhao Xing nodded.

"This ......" I see that this house is deserted, there is a special feeling of loneliness, Zhao Xing looks like he is only eighteen or nineteen years old, he was left at home, no matter how he thinks about it, it is not appropriate, in the words of the ghost child, parents should love their children very much.

"My parents can't help it," Zhao Xing picked up the boiling water and began to make tea, "Since my brother disappeared, they have been in pain, so it's good to go out for a walk." ”

She handed me the teacup and showed a shy and slightly happy smile: "But they care about me and call me every few days, but they are abroad, and I can't contact them." ”

"That's right." I always felt that her smile was a little disobedient, and I couldn't tell what was wrong, and after taking a sip of tea, I remembered her previous words, "You just said that your brother is missing?" ”

I subconsciously glanced at the ghost child sitting next to me, unless Zhao Xing has another brother, otherwise his brother is dead, doesn't this family know?

"Yes, she disappeared more than half a year ago, and she couldn't find it, and my mother cried all day long, so I persuaded my father to take her abroad to travel and relax."

This seems to be right, but I always feel that something is wrong in my heart, and I can't think of the reason after thinking about it carefully, seeing that it is not early, and the parents of the ghost child are not there, and I can't contact them for the time being, so I want to leave a contact number with Zhao Xing, and notify her immediately if there is news of Guo Xia and his wife.

Who knew that she just said this, Zhao Xing said carefully: "Auntie, it's rare for you to come, where are you going to stay now, why don't you stay here for one night?" ”

"This, isn't it too troublesome, I, I'll stay in a hotel." I said before that I was from somewhere else, so I had to go through this panic.

"It's not troublesome, it's troublesome for you to stay in a hotel, how can there be a clean home outside." She looked shy, but quite hospitable, "Besides, my parents will probably call back tomorrow." ”

“…… Okay. Under the expectant eyes of the ghost child, I had to say yes.

Then he sighed again that Zhao Xing had no sense of distress, so he casually invited strangers into the house and stayed overnight!
