"Wait!"

Chen An couldn't help but interrupt.

How did you get to this painting style abruptly, hey!

He can accept that he has an extra sister, but his mother or something, isn't it a little too advanced?

"Why is it my mother, not my sister?"

The little boy asked.

His words made the girl's expression cold again.

She retorted, "What's the difference? ”

Chen An pointed at her, and then at himself.

Bitter persuasion.

"You see, the age difference between us is not that big, is it?"

But the girl just looked at him coldly, "As long as you are obedient, I will definitely be good to you, just let you call me mother." ”

When she said this, she seemed to think of something, and her thin shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was trying to suppress her emotions.

Chen An is not a little kid who doesn't understand anything, of course he sees the girl's strangeness.

He stopped his voice in time and did not continue arguing on the subject.

The corner of the wall was quiet again.

The girl bent her legs and bowed her head silently.

Her little head was buried between her legs, leaving only the back of Chen An's head to look at.

He hesitated, but tentatively reached out and gently placed it on the girl's hand.

His movements are light and gentle.

But the girl was like a stress, and quickly opened it for him.

"What are you doing?"

She asked, looking up.

Chen An was not angry, but said with a smile: "You just said, we are relatives, between relatives, what's wrong with holding hands?" ”

The girl seemed to be still angry, her short black hair was lightly raised, and she turned her head to refuse to look at him.

If it really comes as a child who can't understand the atmosphere, it will definitely shrink back at this moment.

But Chen An, of course, is not a real child.

He was keenly aware of the weakness exposed in the heart of this girl who looked strong and indifferent on the outside.

So the little boy stretched out his hand again and groped cautiously towards her.

His hands were not large enough to wrap the girl's hands in their entirety.

So Chen An chose another way.

His hand was on the girl's hand, and this time the other party only trembled slightly, but did not break free.

Immediately afterwards, Chen An guided her, and the two slowly interlocked their fingers.

The warmth of the palms of each other gave them a little comfort in this cold wind.

Chen An took the initiative to speak.

"Thank you for being willing to save me, I don't know your name yet."

The girl finally turned around.

Her eyes lowered slightly, and she looked at their hands with ten fingers clasped, and her expression was a little unnatural.

Obviously, he is the more powerful and older one......

She replied with some reluctance: "Mu Sanniang." ”

"Mu Sanniang?"

The boy subconsciously repeated.

He asked, "Isn't there an official name?" ”

Mu Sanniang raised her eyes, then shook her hand and broke free.

She looked at him and said coldly: "Mu Sanniang is Mu Sanniang, it's my name." ”

Chen An was stunned, he didn't expect the girl's reaction to be so intense.

It's like a cat that has been stepped on by its tail.

"No, I don't mean anything else."

The boy apologized earnestly.

Sincerity was written on his little face, and there was a little frost on his eyebrows.

Although he is still young, he can still see that his facial features are extraordinary, revealing the taste of handsome and clean.

Mu Sanniang had a cold face, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

At the age of eleven or twelve, in this world of cannibalism, he has learned to put on another mask.

Chen An's voice did not stop.

He put his hand in front of the girl again, his voice soft.

"When we first met, my name was Chen An."

Mu Sanniang opened his hand as usual, with a cold expression, but her tone unconsciously softened a little.

She said, "If you eat my bread, you will have my surname, and you will be called Mu'an in the future." ”

When Chen An heard this, he smiled a little helplessly, "Where does this come from?" ”

Mu Sanniang glanced at him and replied seriously.

"This is Mu Sanniang's truth."

……

……

It was late at night.

Under the cover of night, the tall city walls looked like terrifying beasts crawling one after another, and only large black shadows could be seen.

The night was supposed to be quiet, but the wind and snow in the past two days have become more and more cold, and the continuous piercing whistling sound swept the audience.

It's like a mountain wind blowing through a deep stream, and the mountain ghosts are whimpering and howling.

In the corner that no one cared about, two petite figures, hugged each other tightly.

They shivered occasionally, and then quickly subsided.

The chill was overwhelming, but the skin still exuded a faint heat.

This heat is like an invisible little sun, attracting the two to each other.

The little boy in it slowly opened his eyes.

Chen An didn't feel much sleepy.

In such an environment, it is difficult for him to sleep.

It's too cold.

If this continues, even if the nobles in the city come out every day to give porridge and disaster relief, they will not live long.

That bowl of gruel can hang their lives, but it can't give them the slightest warmth on a night like this.

If you want to survive, you can only find an opportunity to enter the city.

However, under normal circumstances, the city will never allow the victims to enter the city.

Because once this opening is opened, the follow-up troubles will be countless.

Looking at the large shadows lurking in the darkness, Chen An frowned.

Perhaps because of their smaller size, the walls were now taller and more formidable in his eyes.

To be honest, he can't think of any good way to do it at the moment.

The girl in her arms suddenly writhed uneasily.

Her eyes trembled, but she didn't wake up.

just shouted unconsciously in his mouth, "Dad, mother......"

Her voice trembled, and her tone was helpless and hesitant.

The girl in her sleep, stripped of her daytime mask.

The indifference and strength that pretended to be naturally crumbled with it.

What fell in Chen An's eyes at this moment was only extremely distressing weakness.

Chen An sighed lightly and tried to bring his face closer.

He changed his position so that it would be easier for him to put his face on the side of the girl's face.

He could see that the base of the girl's ear was already blue from the cold.

Chen An's movements were as gentle as possible, not wanting to wake her up.

But he still underestimated Mu Sanniang's vigilance.

It's just that the moment her cheeks touched, Mu Sanniang had already opened her eyes.

In those pale blue pupils, there was no emotion in the coldness.

It was only after seeing that it was Chen An that the killing intent in her eyes slowly subsided.

Mu Sanniang did not push Chen An away.

Or, after she says that we are relatives in the future, there will be no more suspicions about him.

Simple, pure.

This is Mu Sanniang's truth.

She can choose to believe unconditionally because of a look.

Skin-to-skin brings a little warmth.

Mu Sanniang couldn't help but take the initiative to post it.

"Sorry to wake you up......"

In my ears, the boy's slightly apologetic voice was heard.

Mu Sanniang shook her head and did not speak.

So the world fell silent again, and there was only the whimpering of the wind and snow.

A little, she suddenly spoke.

"My father and mother are dead."

Chen An snorted, not knowing the meaning of her sudden words.

But he always knew how to be a listener.

The girl continued to whisper.

"They died on the way to escape the famine."

There was a pause.

"I killed it."
