The young girl subconsciously took a step back, but did not flee as she usually does. By the faint bright light, she saw his face, and more clearly his eyes. He is very good looking ... girl's heart can't help but think, and that pair of eyes full of the vicissitudes of worry with age, but not the slightest color of disgust, but with a kind of heartwarming demonic charm, so that people just look at it will be deeply addicted to it, and can't extricate themselves.
She stared at him for a long time, then looked at him, then looked at the fruit in her hand, gulped secretly, then gently held the fruit up and said timidly: "Big brother, do you want to eat?"
Lin Yi was dumbfounded as he squatted down, smiling and shaking his head. Then reached out his hand, slowly approaching her face, flicking at the two terrible wounds on her face, a faint colorless glow lit up above his fingertips. The young girl was completely frozen, eyes wide open, mouth wide open, as immobile as being fixed, completely forgot to dodge.
A few seconds later, Lin Yi withdrew his hands, his eyebrows gently crazed. He asked softly, "Little sister, what's your name?"
The young girl continued to stay for another half a long time before she said weakly: "I ... I don't have a name."
"No name? Then where is your home? And why are you in this place?"
"I don't have a home ... I was here when I woke up and I don't know anything." The young girl shook her head. His voice was gentle and calmed her thudding heart slowly.
"You don't remember anything from before, do you?"
The young girl was stunned, then looked at him and nodded gently, her eyes filled|with helplessness. She has no home, no past, not even her own name, almost everyone here hates her, every time they see her is to beat her with sticks, stones, chasing her, she can only desperately run away, and then hide in a corner of no one secretly crying. Such a her just instinctively want to live, no partner, no goal, nothing.
"So that's how it is" Lin Yi smiled again, he also inexplicably appeared here, the same without the past. Perhaps this is a wonderful fate. A deep compassion arose in his heart, softly said: "Do you want to have a brother, a brother who will not let you starve, let alone let others bully you."
The young girl looked at him in surprise, with a bewildered look on her face, not knowing how to answer.
"I'll be your brother, okay? I won't let you go hungry, let alone let anyone bully you."
The young girl's eyes widened as she held the fruit, which was bigger than her palm, at a loss for words. Her insides and the corners of her eyes were sour, as if something was about to well up. She said timidly, "Is it okay if I ... They all hate me and beat me because I ..."
Lin Yi stood up and gently took her small hand: "Come with me, from now on, You are my little sister now. No one can bully you again."
The young girl looked at him in a daze, and the hand that was gently holding her left hand came with unfamiliar warmth. Unknowingly, her eyes misted with water.
The young girl's world blank everything, when everyone hated her, the world abandoned her, he took her hand, and launched a vow to protect her for life. From then on, his shadow was burned into her heart, indelible forever, and her attachment to him was like taking the world's most poisonous opium, which she could never quit.
It was also from this moment that two originally impossible to intersect life trajectories merged together.
Lin Yi did not explain to Chu Jingtian and the old man why he brought her back, and the two did not ask more questions, let alone object. That night, the plank bed that he had slept on for ten years became the young girl's first bed. Lin Yi stood outside the room, silently looking at the vast night sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
In the silence, he stretched out his left arm, and then used the nail of his right hand to gently scratch on his arm, and immediately, a short wound appeared on his arm, and began to gush out blood beads. He again used his right finger on the wound, the wound immediately disappeared, not even a trace left.
He lowered his hands and frowned in confusion. From memory, he did have such an ability, but why did he not remove the scar on her face just now.
Was that really a bruise?
"Brother."
A sweet voice sounded behind him, Lin Yi turned around and looked at the young girl who showed half of her face and said, "It's very late, why aren't you sleeping?"
The young girl hesitated for a moment, then said with an expectant face, "I want to sleep with brother, can I?"
"Oh? Good." Lin Yi agreed with a smile, he didn't want her to show a disappointed look, moreover, he didn't want her to feel inferior because of his hair color and scars. At least to let her know that he would never hate her and reject her.
"Really?" The young girl softly exclaimed excitedly, then her body had been picked up by Lin Yi and laid on that humble wooden plank bed.
"Alright, little girl, hurry up and sleep." Lin Yi hugged her to his chest, his soft voice as if he was gently coaxing a cute baby.
"Mmm!" She happily responded, leaning her body tightly against his warm chest, then found the most comfortable position and lazily closed her eyes, a trail of tears constantly being washed out of her smiling face. She was so happy that she wanted to cry.
"What shall I call you?" Gently stroking her long white hair, Lin Yi muttered to himself. The young girl tilted her head to look at him in confusion. Her skin was surprisingly white, still releasing the skin light of winning snow in the dark night. Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and lightly recited: "Your skin and hair are as beautiful as white snow you will be called Ning Xue, okay? Do you like this name?"
" Ning ... Xue ...," she repeated softly, and then nodded heavily:. "I like this name so much, because it was given by my brother."
This night. She slept as peacefully as never before, no misery, no cold, no fear, because she has a brother who will always protect her.
Lin Yi's body did not move and waited until she fell into a shallow sleep. He finally sighed lightly, his eyes looked overhead in ecstasy until he fell asleep without realizing it.
Who am I ...
The next morning, when Lin Yi's opened his eyes, Ning Xue was still shrinking in his arms like a lazy kitten, sleeping sweetly and peacefully. The corners of Lin Yi's mouth could not help but reveal a light smile, could not bear to disturb her, lying motionlessly on his back listening to the commotion outside. The daytime is really more noisy than the night, and this seems to be the time of breakfast, there is a slight coaxing outside, yesterday and Chu surprised the conversation learned that the sealed area in the years of reproduction has hundreds of people, divided into several small pieces of residence, usually little to come and go. And they are located in this small piece of adults and children together have more than thirty people, usually get together to eat.
The noise made Ning Xue wake up quietly, she opened her hazy eyes, then looked up in some panic for Lin Yi's figure, but developed he was looking at himself with an amused look on his face. She also laughed gently, then shrank into his arms again and closed her eyes comfortably.
