Chapter Thirty-Three: Who We Used To Be
After He Lanxuan said hello to Kailina on the side, she looked at Lu Fandao with a smile on her face; "It's not very good, it can't be that I didn't sleep yesterday. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Lu Fan laughed perfunctorily twice, and was about to speak, but he felt a chill coming from behind He Lanxuan, different from the daily cold, this is a chill from the bone marrow, even if he is in the sun, he can't feel a little warmth, Lu Fan looked at the beautiful girl behind He Lanxuan with her eyes closed and silent, she was expressionless like an ice sculpture, exuding an unapproachable indifferent atmosphere.
"Her name is Xiaoyue, she is the personal bodyguard sent to me by the family, and you should meet for the first time on the earth that just arrived yesterday."
He Lanxuan found that Lu Fan was looking at Xiao Yue, so she opened her mouth to introduce.
Lu Fan nodded, stretched out his hand, and smiled at Xiao Yue; "Hello, my name is Lu Fan."
Lu Fan's hand stopped in mid-air, but Xiao Yue didn't react, she didn't mean to reach out to shake it at all, and she didn't even say a word, Lu Fan withdrew his hand a little embarrassed, and Helan Xuan on the side laughed; "My little Yue is a cold beauty! It's not that simple to take advantage of. ”
Lu Fan smiled bitterly; "I don't have it, I just want to get to know it, Sister Xuan, you are kidding me again."
"Hehe, okay, everyone knows each other, it's not too early, let's go to the military headquarters."
"Xiaoyue is going too? The military department is very safe, so you don't need to bring bodyguards. ”
Karina saw Xiao Yue following Helanxuan step by step, and said a little strangely; "Goblin, when did you become so timid."
He Lanxuan was helpless when she heard this, Xiao Yue received an order to monitor herself, this cold fox was a dead brain, it was impossible to keep her at home, and she couldn't let Kailena and Lu Fan know her true identity, so she had to pretend to be annoyed and said; "There's no way, grandpa doesn't worry about me going out alone, I must be Xiaoyue to protect me, the old man, it's always very verbose."
"Haha, it's not like you've been pretending to be cute and quiet in front of Grandpa Helan, this time you're suffering."
Kailina remembered that He Lanxuan, who was naughty and mischievous when she was a child, pretended to be quiet and cute in front of other adults, but every time she got into trouble, she carried the black pot by herself, and now she saw He Lanxuan depressed, and she was really happy in her heart.
He Lanxuan also seemed to recall the happiness of her childhood, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said softly; "Yes, I used to be carefree, I could do whatever I wanted, I wasn't so tired when I grew up, I really miss it, the days when we used to get into trouble together, we were happy together, and we were punished together.
”
"Hey, hey, where are you punished, every time you get into trouble, it's the black cauldron I carry for you in the end, and the most hateful thing is that you secretly run to show off that you have escaped punishment, it's really hateful, it makes me angry when I think about it."
Kailina looked at Helanxuan dissatisfied, and when she saw that she was smiling like a fox stealing a chicken, she suddenly sighed; "Xiaoxuan, this is the real you, it's been a long time since I've seen this strange and familiar smile!"
He Lanxuan smiled for a long time, looked at Kailina silently for a long time, and brought the polite and distant smile on her face again, and said lightly; "When you grow up, you have to learn to change, we are no longer the 7-year-old child who doesn't understand anything, you have your responsibility, I have my burden, Karina, it's like you gave up five years ago...
"Shut up!"
Kailina's face changed, her chest rose and fell, obviously she was reminded of the painful memories of the past by He Lanxuan's words, looking at He Lanxuan's faint and indifferent smile, she was disappointed, maybe just like He Lanxuan said, people will change, she is no longer the willful lady she was when she was a child, and she is no longer the Helan goblin who hid behind her when she got into trouble.
"Why!"
"Because that's the price of growth."
He Lanxuan looked at Kailina with complicated eyes.
"I'm disappointed."
After Karina recovered her emotions, she said calmly; "But I think you're right, Colonel."
When He Lanxuan heard the word colonel, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes, she didn't say anything more, and silently turned around and walked out of the ancient mansion, leaving a gloomy face of Kailina and a surprised Lu Fan.
Seeing Helanxuan leaving, Kailina took out a pack of women's cigarettes from her pocket, lit it, and looked stunned in the direction of the smoke, until a cigarette burned her slender fingers.
"Sister, you."
Lu Fan looked at Karina with a bitter face, and felt a little sorry in his heart, does this girl who has always been cheerful and generous also feel sad? Maybe the colonel hurt not only He Lanxuan alone, but also herself!
"I'm surprised. Me too, I never thought I would quarrel with Xiaoxuan since I was a child, and I disappointed her just now, it's really too much, I would say that. ”
Karina's shoulders trembled slightly, and tears ran down her pale cheeks.
"I always thought that we would never change, I always thought that we could say everything, but the reality is really cruel, I lost him five years ago, and today I lost Xiaoxuan, is this the price of growth?"
Lu Fan sighed and stood silently beside Karina, he knew that any comfort at this time would only make Karina more sad, and he really didn't know how to comfort Karina without experiencing this kind of feeling, maybe all she needed now was quiet, a time to be able to feel alone.
"Whew, I'm in a much better mood."
After standing for a while, Kailina seemed to have recovered her spirits, turned her head to look at the bored Lu Fan, and said angrily; "It's like a wood, and I won't come to comfort my sister, which really makes my sister sad."
Lu Fan smiled, and saw that Karina had returned to her previous appearance, and his heart was also a lot more relieved. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Karina suddenly turned his body, looked at Lu Fan seriously with a pair of sapphire eyes, and said:
"Little brother, even in the future, even if you leave the Stirling family, my sister will definitely not change, Karina. Vail. Sterling will always be Lu Fan's sister and will never change! ”
Lu Fan was surprised, looking at Karina with a serious and solemn expression, his heart throbbed inexplicably.
"Little brother, do you believe in fate? Maybe you think that coming to the Stirling family is just a coincidence, just because of a profit need, you haven't really been happy these days, you haven't really regarded us as your relatives, right? ”
Without waiting for Lu Fan to refute, Karina continued; "Don't deny it, I'm not blaming you, because if I were in your shoes, I think I would do the same. But my sister hopes that you can let down your vigilance and try to get along with us for a while, I think you will like it here, and I hope that one day you will truly treat me as your sister! ”
Lu Fan was upset when he heard it, Kailina's words made him very ashamed, he didn't care about others, but for a period of time, Kailina really treated him like a younger brother, but he never treated her as a relative, just blindly used her care to protect himself, he suddenly felt that he was so selfish, and selfishness made it difficult for him to face Kailina.
"Okay, let's not talk about this today, it's almost time, let's go to the military headquarters to report first."
Seeing Lu Fan's embarrassed face, Kailina sighed secretly in her heart, but changed the topic.
Lu Fan lowered his head and was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his head to look at Karina, and said solemnly; "Maybe you don't believe it, but I only believe in two people in this world, one is a Taoist priest, and the other is you, give me a little time, and when I find the answer in my heart, I will truly treat you as relatives."
"I believe, little brother, I am waiting for the day when you will really call me sister."
With a smile in her eyes, Karina looked up at the blue sky and suddenly shouted;
"Xiaoxuan, maybe we have grown up, maybe like you said because of the family, because of the responsibility we have to change ourselves, but I firmly believe that the friendship between us has never changed, Helan goblin, I will get you back from the past!"
Outside the ancient mansion, He Lanxuan, who had been wandering, suddenly stopped, and a sweet smile that made countless men crazy appeared on her face, and she laughed softly:
"I'll wait, Cortana!"
