Chapter One Little Girl

  Under the fluttering five-star red flag on the street, the whole city is on holiday, and there are crowds of people flowing aimlessly everywhere, filling the entire city to the brim.

  Lee Ruo Yu finished settling the account, carrying big and small bags without taking the elevator, in the almost unused staircase, she handed over things that could be put into a wristlet to An Nan Xiu. It wasn't until Lee Ruo Yu was only carrying a small bag of things preparing to leave that she discovered a vagrant in the corner of the stairs looking at her and An Nan Xiu with an incredulous and frightened gaze.

  Annan Xiu thought for a moment, took out an apple from her pocket, wiped it on Li Luyu's clothes, and placed it in front of the vagrant before leaving.

  Because today's purchase of so many dishes was for Li Luyu's sister Li Zi to make delicious food, Annanxiu originally did not want to help Li Luyu alleviate his burden, but considering that on the bus she still had to let Li Luyu give her a seat, she could only force herself.

  "Did your sister also make you do this when she took the bus?" Annan Xiu glanced around at the people who were being squeezed and swaying, unable to stand stably, with a somewhat superior feeling.

  "She won't." Few people can enjoy special treatment and remain calm when many people condemn her for lacking a sense of justice.

  Annan looked left and right, humming twice, slightly happier.

  Back home, seeing that there was still a long time before dinner, Li Luyu had already started bustling around. Annanxiu knew he was doing it for the sake of having dinner on time, and feeling annoyed in her heart, she took an ice stick and went downstairs to play by herself.

  Annanshuo didn't get along with anyone, and Li Luyu was a local himself, but after all, he was her attendant officer, so she could barely get along with him. As for others, Annanshuo had no interest in communicating with them at all.

  "Little sister, eating ice cream again? This thing isn't good for you if you eat too much of it." Lin Luo Yan finished dinner and went out for a walk with Han Yi Xia.

  Lin Luo and Han Yixia also often see Annanxiu, so they come over to greet her.

  "Your relationship is ultimately for marriage, since both of you have this intention, why not seize the time? Besides this, do you two have any other fun together?" An Nanxiu rarely had an interest in speaking, Tianyun's divine realm and here were very different, but there were also some things that were the same. An Nanxiu was no longer a little girl, she didn't understand some things, but understood others.

  Lin Luo Yan's face turned red with anger, but Han Yi Xia was secretly delighted. Thanks to An Nan Xiu for speaking out, but of course he couldn't show it. He pulled Lin Luo Yan: "Let's go, don't bother with this kid!"

  Watching the couple leave, Annan Xiu continued to lick her ice stick, watching as a bit of sweet ice water dripped onto the ground, and then ants came crawling around.

  After finishing the popsicle, An Nanxiu sat on the edge of the pavilion and was stunned for a while, then she saw a little girl skipping into the community gate.

  The girl was sixteen or seventeen years old, with a head of shoulder-length hair. The strands started to curl into charming big waves under her earlobe, making her look slightly more mature than her age.

  The girl was wearing a white long-sleeved shirt with carefully rolled up cuffs, and a red and black plaid Scottish-style pleated skirt that looked quite thick. Her slender legs were clad in knee-high black cotton socks, and on her feet were a pair of black round-toed leather loafers with two red glass beads on the back that swayed gently as she walked.

  The girl is a student with a big backpack on her back, she is holding the shoulder straps of the bag with both hands, and there is a sweet smile on her face as if she is happy about something.

  The girl is beautiful, especially when she smiles. Her big eyes turn aimlessly, her clear gaze sweeps over everything around her, yet doesn't linger on anything, without a hint of guile.

  Her chin doesn't have the delicate features of many beautiful women, but has a bit of girlish roundness, making her whole person look like she has a pure and innocent temperament.

  It seemed like an enemy on a narrow road, and the girl also saw Annan Xiu.

  Two pairs of eyes met in mid-air.

  An Nan wrinkled her brow, and the girl gave a gentle and natural smile in response.

  This smile often appears on Li Luoyu's face, but on this girl's face, it makes An Nanxiu feel a bit uncomfortable.

  "An Nan Xiu?" The girl still pulling on her backpack straps walked up to An Nan Xiu.

  An Nan Xiu only then noticed why she had to keep holding onto her backpack in this way, otherwise the shoulder straps would pull tightly on her shirt, making her already full chest look even more prominent, pushing up her shirt.

  The girl is not very tall, a little shorter than the utility pole, but much taller than An Nanxiu. She wears flat shoes and stands in front of An Nanxiu, her straight legs under the Scottish plaid skirt perfectly blocking An Nanxiu's view of the ants.

  So Annan Xiu can now openly dislike her.

  "How did you know my name?" Annan Xiu said expressionlessly, then didn't look at her again.

  "My brother and I have talked about you, so just stay at my place with peace of mind. My brother is a very good person, he will take care of you like family." The girl didn't mind An Nan Xiu's coldness, still smiling sweetly.

  "So you're Liz?" An Nanxiu had already confirmed that this girl was Li Luyou's precious little sister, and she wasn't anything special, not even as pretty as An Zhishui. Her figure was about the same, both being vase-like women with two lumps of meat on their chest hindering their movements.

  An Nan Xiu's impression of her was even worse, this woman emphasized "my home" as soon as they met, telling An Nan Xiu that she was the mistress, and also emphasized "like taking care of family members", only "like" but not truly "family members", she was Li Luoyu's family.

  Ann didn't care whether the girl intentionally revealed her thoughts or unconsciously expressed them, nor did she think it was just her own paranoia; anyway, she had already made up her mind - she didn't like this girl.

  "Li Banzhuang." The girl said with a smile, stretching out one finger and shaking it in front of An Nanxiu: "The name Li Zi is only for brothers to call."

  It seems that she also knows that giving herself the name Li Zi is quite arrogant and shameless, but it's only allowed for Li Luyu to call her that. An Nanxiu doesn't care what she's called, but after taking a look at this girl named Li Banshan, An Nanxiu knew that she wasn't as harmless and gentle as she looked, but rather a girl with many wicked thoughts hidden in her heart.

  Knowing the other person's real name, even if she was Li Luyu's sister, Annan Xiu didn't have much interest in talking to her and furrowed his brow, saying: "Move aside a bit, don't block my view of the ants."

  "Are you having more fun with ants?" Li Banzhen looked at the 14-year-old girl, who was twisting and turning in a way that made it impossible to communicate normally. Seeing An Nanxiu ignoring her, Li Banzhen didn't mind either, and said to herself: "Then I'll go upstairs, you continue watching the ants, I'll call you when it's time for dinner."

  Does it mean she has to eat before going upstairs? An Nan Xiu thought so, humph, whoever wants to go upstairs will do so, who needs your permission?

  Annan pretended not to hear and looked at the ants intently.

  Li Banzhuang still used that very relaxed and happy pace, jogging upstairs.

  Li Luyu was cooking in the kitchen when he felt someone enter the kitchen.

  A pair of soft hands gently rested on his waist, with only two index fingers lightly touching that ticklish spot, then both hands closed in.

  The girl's slender and plump hands encircled his waist, her ten fingers tightly clasped together, pressing against his firm abdomen.

  Her palms were soft and warm, his lower abdomen was firm and elastic.

  Her hands were still exerting force, pulling him back a little, and then Li Luyu felt a warm body tightly attached to his back, as if it would never be separated again. The familiar fragrance was on her body, and the strands of her hair slowly spread out and surrounded him, making his heart suddenly sink warmly.

  It's a warm, cozy and happy feeling that can only be obtained in a complete and real family.

  "Pear."

  Li Luoyu didn't turn around, he just softly called out the name that only he used to call her, his voice filled with a tenderness and affection like the honey in his spoon.

  The flames crackled and popped as they burned, the water in the pot hissed and sputtered, oil was poured in, and the metal spoon clanged against the side of the pot with a clear ringing sound.

  "Brother..."

  The girl's voice was sweet and low, with a warm and sticky feeling. She called out the names that the two of them had decided on because they were connected by blood ties. Her hands tightened again, her cheek pressed against his back, smelling the soothing scent of masculinity on his body, rubbing comfortably.

  This is what it feels like to be home, always thinking about being together with him, that's the two people's home, warm and full of happiness in every corner of the house.

  It's been a whole month since they've been apart, and Li Banzhuang finally felt at ease, even though her brother was taking care of another girl, but in the position of his sister, it was still her, only her, she was his sister.

  "Brother, we've been apart for so long for the first time since we were kids, have you missed me?" Li Banzhuang hugged him tightly and refused to let go.

  "Of course, I've thought about it. In the past, every week you'd come and cook delicious food for me, then wait for me to return and clean up the house. Now even socks have to be washed by myself, and with An Nan Xiu added, cleaning the house is a lot more troublesome... Ah, brother is waiting for you to be freed soon, to continue coming back and being my little maid." Li Luoyu smiled, knowing that his sister liked to stick close to him. Little sister had been like this since she was young, her brother was her sky, and Li Luoyu was also very proud, able to make her proud of having a brother to be proud of.

  "It looks like I'll have to wait until next semester, my teacher and I applied for a transfer next semester, the excuse of course is that I have an older brother who can tutor me. The teacher was initially unwilling, but after learning that my brother was an outstanding graduate from two years ago in our school, and also ranked fifth in the Zhonghai City college entrance examination, he had nothing to say." Li Banzhuang said with a pleased expression.
