Chapter Twenty-Eight: What to Do Next

The sunlight is like the glow of a fire, steaming the droplets that fall on the balcony. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I'm drying the washed sheets and duvet covers on the balcony.

Even though it's October, it's still hard to experience such weather, but luckily we've come back from outside.

Mo Fei said that he wanted to help his mother clean up, and he had to wash a lot of things while the weather was good, so he went upstairs first.

And I have a lot to wash.

Uh, to be precise, it's to help Liu Xiaoxi.

Standing on the balcony, the sunlight is a little dazzling, looking into the living room, the interior is a little dark, I can't see clearly.

But I could see Liu Xiao still curled up on the sofa, already changing into pajamas, holding a pale yellow pillow, and half-open eyes staring at me from afar.

"Brother, thirsty"

"Well, okay, wait a minute"

After drying the sheets, I walked into the living room and took out a bottle of juice from the refrigerator, poured it into a glass, and handed it to Liu Xiao.

This is Mo Fei's gift to Liu Xiao, and it can be regarded as a bribe.

Liu Xiao picked up the glass and tasted it a little, probably because it was a little sour, so she frowned and squinted, and put the glass down again.

"By the way, Liu Xiao, why are you so clingy to me, you weren't like this before"

"Uh——?"

Liu Xiao tilted his head and stared at me.

"So what was I like before?"

I scratched my head, I don't know how to describe it.

"You used to be, huh...... It feels more crisp and independent, doing everything by myself, learning everything quickly, never tired or troublesome."

"There's a feeling of omnipotence, and not to mention crying, even you rarely see you crying"

"yes......"

Liu Xiao lowered his head, buried his face on the pillow, and curled up even more.

Outside the house, there were many fewer cicadas than a month ago, except for a few occasional sounds.

Glancing outside, the fiery sunlight reflected off the building opposite, and it felt a little harsh.

"It's not that you don't look good right now, eh...... No, it's really not good now, how can I say it, I think you should be better off before."

"Well, I see"

What did she know?

How to say, I should have been happy with her promise, but my heart was a little empty, as if something important had quietly evaporated, which was very uncomfortable.

Liu Xiao slowly raised his head, his face was expressionless, and his eyes were a little red.

"Ha~ah~"

Liu Xiao yawned and blinked in a daze.

"It's a rare good weather, so let's go take a nap. "I suggested.

Liu Xiao looked back at the edge of the sofa, the clothes he had just changed.

"I'll wash it, anyway, by the way, you can go and rest. "What's wrong with me, suddenly I don't want Liu Xiao to work anymore.

Liu Xiao turned around and stared at me again.

"Go ahead, go get some rest"

"Hmm"

Liu Xiao replied softly, as if he was really tired.

She walked barefoot back to her room.

Unlike in the morning, although she didn't wear shoes, she walked without a sound at all in the morning, which made her even more devoid of energy.

I followed her to her room, and saw the girl lying on her side on the bed, holding her legs huddled together.

So I opened the window and closed the curtains.

The location of this room is very good, just in the gap between several buildings, and a gust of wind blows in through the window, blowing the curtains half-up and hula and hula.

The room suddenly became much fresher, Liu Xiao was lying on the bed, the wind blowing her hair on the sheets, slowly moving like a sand dune.

The occasional specks of light that leaked in through the curtains flickered briskly on the floor and on the bed, shining brightly like the reflection of a light on the water, illuminating the room.

Several streams of light passed through the room, and the bright golden ones seemed to freeze, as if they were emitting a sweet smell.

Liu Xiao rolled over, stretched comfortably, facing the direction of the window, and assumed a serene posture.

The room was so quiet that you could hear the girl's calm breathing, the occasional sound of the wind, and even the faint hum of the sun's rays.

I gently covered the girl with the blanket, and then tiptoed out of Liu Xiao's room.

Although I was wearing slippers, I was still afraid of making a little noise.

When I came to the living room, I glanced at the pillows that filled all the corners, and the clothes on the sofa, well, let's get to work.

Liu Xiao doesn't seem to be very accustomed to the climate here, oh no, it should be said that she is very weak, and when she came back at noon, she found that her clothes were almost wet with sweat.

She was not polite at all, and changed her clothes directly in the living room.

Of course, I was facing the security door all the time, and Mo Fei's teeth behind me creaked, as if I would bite off my ears if I just turned my head slightly.

Forehead...... It's scary to think about it now.

Picked up Liu Xiao's dress, it seemed that something had fallen off, uh...... Really.

The underwear is also put together, what should I do, wash it off, I will probably be killed by Mo Fei, if you don't wash it off, you can't put it here.

Wait for Liu Xiao to deal with it himself? Forget it, it's more reliable for me to wash off the new ones I bought today, looking at the weather, it should be almost dry by night.

Anyway, I used a washing machine, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

Well, it suddenly seems like you can't use the washing machine.

It's also amazing to say, when Mo Fei first started using these before, he flipped through the book with me to check the cleaning methods and precautions, and he didn't feel a little embarrassed at that time.

It was a surprise that the knowledge accumulated at that time was now useful.

Yes...... But you can't say this in front of Mo Fei, you will definitely be killed.

But before I do that, I have something to do.

Back in my room, I picked up my phone and dialed my aunt's number.

Honk...... Honk...... Honk......

My heart beat faster and faster with the sound of the beep, as if my chest was pounding together.

"Auntie, well, I'm Liu Xiaoqing"

"I want to discuss with you, can I let Liu Xiao go to school here, I happen to be here, I can take care of her"

To my surprise, I thought that my aunt would say that she would let Liu Xiao play here for a few days and then go back, but now there was a voice on the phone that she didn't care much.

"It's okay, it's up to you, since you're not too troublesome, I'm happy too"

Would you like to too?

"Well, then after the National Day, my aunt can look at it and go through the formalities"

"I'll do it here, you can just look at it over there, if you need money, I'll call your card, and I won't go"

Hey, this is your own daughter, what are you trying to make trouble with in such a tone that you are talking like a lost dog?

"That, aunt, it's better for you to care about Liu Xiao a little, she's very weak......"

I'm not done yet.

"Okay, okay, please, is there anything else"

Hearing this, I also suddenly felt that the fire was big, "It's gone, that's it"

"Well, goodbye"

Tick - Tick – Tick –

What the hell is this?

Was she ever like this?

I touched my head, but I couldn't touch my head.

I won't say much about complaining, and I don't want to dig into it until I find out what the hell is going on.

Let's do something reliable, although I am Liu Xiao's relative, but not a guardian, if you want to go through the transfer procedures, it is not something I did, so ......

Then I have to ask my nominal guardian, and when I hold a parent-teacher conference, the person who attended on behalf of Mo Fei's family and my family - Mo Fei's mother.

Although I don't want to trouble her, I feel very bad in my heart now, if I don't find someone to help, it seems that Liu Xiao's matter will not be settled.

In a flash, the light outside the window turned a dull gold.

Liu Xiao's room has now been completely dim because of the orientation problem, and only the living room still has some golden afterglow like 'old age'.

From the window came some faint stir-frying sounds, sand - sand -

Because I was thinking about all kinds of things in my heart, I was a little flustered, and I forgot to be light.

There is a popping sound on the cutting board as you cut the shredded potatoes.

"Brother?"

Liu Xiao's voice was hazy, drawing my attention.

At the slightly dim door of the dining room, Liu Xiao held a white pillow with one hand and gently rubbed his eyes with the other.

"Sorry to wake you up?"

"Nope"

As he spoke, Liu Xiao walked over and gently pressed the switch on the wall, and I realized that I didn't turn on the light.

I also stopped moving in my hand, and stood here like this, motionless, oh no, I must be looking very strange now, I can't let Liu Xiao find out how flustered I am.

But I don't know what to do.

The inside of my head was empty.

Liu Xiao walked over on tiptoe, as if the tiles on the ground were a little cold.

She stood beside me with a pillow in both hands, and then leaned in gently, letting her shoulders rest against my arms.

I could feel that she had just woken up, and there was still a warm residual warmth on her shoulders, just like the sun.

"Something good seems to be there"

Ay?

Liu Xiao suddenly said something that made me not know how to react, "Huh?" I subconsciously asked.

The girl shook her head, her long smooth hair wavy, she closed her eyes slightly, turned her head over, and leaned on my shoulder, "I can feel it"

Is it......

Is...... Really...... It was my sister, and a sour feeling crept up from my heart and into my eyes.

If I weren't a boy, I'd be crying by now.

To my surprise, I found myself smiling, and although it was only a slight curve on my face and the corners of my mouth, it felt like it had not been warm like this in a long time......

"Good thing...... Why, Liu Xiao is now a member of Liu Xiaoqing's family, let's live here next, everything will go well"

Liu Xiao moved his head slightly, rubbing my arm like a kitten.

"Hmm...... Good ......"

Liu Xiao said softly.

Suddenly, I felt calm, the turmoil in my heart had disappeared without a trace, and the sound of a coherent sound in my hand was restored.
