Li Jingmi seemed to shake his head, after exhaling roughly, when he saw Li Xia Ke who kept pouring all her emotions into the bag hanging in front of her. It was clear she was in a bad mood right now. Li Jingmi immediately approached Li Xiao Ke.
"Did Grandpa scold you again?"
Li Xiao Ke nodded faintly, while her hands continued to punch furiously.
"Because you ran away this afternoon?"
Li Xiao Ke nodded again. The girl immediately stopped her fist after feeling her anger had been channeled, she immediately sat on the floor with sweat all over her body. Li Jingmi followed beside her.
"Where did you go this afternoon?"
"Not going anywhere, just playing with the kids on the side of the road." Li Xiao Ke replied with a blank look floating in the air. While her hands on the floor, supporting her tiny body that was already feeling tired. "Jingmi ko,"
"Hmm..?"
"Why is Grandpa so restrained on me, but not with you?"
"Says who? Can't you see? Wherever I go, the guards also follow me. We are treated the same, because Grandpa loves us very much."
Li Xiao Ke sighed harshly, "But you are free wherever you want to go, while I am not."
"I don't go anywhere either, I just go out to work." Li Jingmi's gaze was also in the air, actually he didn't even know what he wanted, he had only lived according to his grandfather's direction.
"Why won't Grandpa let me work too? All day long I just wasted time doing nothing. Don't you know, since I was little I loved making vlogs, why now Grandpa forbid me too?"
"Since you are a princess, you don't have to work hard to make money, because Grandpa has provided for all your needs."
"Then give me the gadget, I really need it right now."
Li Jingmi was silent.
Li Xiao Ke sighed again harshly. It was always like that, whenever she asked for a gadget, Grandpa would not grant it, and so did Li Jingmi. It's very strange indeed, with such abundant wealth, isn't it very easy for the Li family to buy facilities such as cellphones, laptops, and other sophisticated communication tools. But all of that seemed unclean to Li Xiao Ke, she felt her life was back in the stone age now.
Li Jingmi continued to look at his sister, Li Xiao Ke was not as cheerful as he used to be, a smile also rarely appeared on her lips now, he seemed bored with his life for these five months. After Li Xiao Ke lost his memory, Grandpa always got rid of anything related to Timmy, the old man forbade everyone to give gadgets, or gossip about Timmy at his house. Including repatriating Nana to Indonesia. Grandpa didn't want the girl to make Li Xiao Ke remember Timmy again.
"I feel like you guys are hiding something from me. I feel like I've lost something important, but I don't know what it is." Li Xiao Ke continued, her gaze still blank.
"Xiao Ke, why do you think that? We all love you very much, we won't hide anything from you."
"Then return my passport, I want to go back to Indonesia, I'm not happy living here."
"Xiao Ke, how can we let a little girl like you live alone in Indonesia."
"Koko, I'm not alone, Mother is there."
"But you don't want to live with Mother."
"Can't you guys stop worrying about me so much. I'm an adult, I'm not a kid anymore, and I can buy my own house, of course I'll live in my own house."
"It's better to piss you off than to let you live alone."
"Tch..." Li Xiao Ke was very annoyed and repeatedly sighed harshly. "Okay, take me out now. I want some hotpot."
It was now Li Jingmi who took a shaky breath. It was obvious that Li Xiao Ke wanted to cry right now. Whenever she was sad and wanted to cry, Li Xiao Ke always took Li Jingmi to eat hotpot with the spiciest level, so everyone thought she was crying because it was spicy, not because she was sad.
"Just go alone, I don't want to see you cry again."
"Do you think Grandpa will let me go if Ididn't invite you." Li Xiao Ke was getting more and more annoyed.
Li Jingmi sighed again, he couldn't bear to see Li Xiao Ke continue to feel sad. In the end, he took Li Xiao Ke to a hotpot restaurant as well, even though he had already guessed the ending. Li Xiao Ke ate her food while still in tears.
"Xiao Ke, that's enough. Do you want to torture your stomach, by eating spicy food and also drinking so much beer?" Li Jingmi said as he snatched the beer bottle from Li Xiao Ke's hand. But Li Xiao Ke took the beer bottle from Li Jingmi's hand again.
"Jingmi ko, you really have no appetite. We should enjoy the food in front of us to the fullest. Hotpot and beer are the perfect combination, don't stop me from enjoying it."
Li Xiao Ke took another sip of the beer bottle in her hand. I don't know how many bottles she has used. The girl is getting drunk and out of control, her head is now starting to bow with her hand holding her left chest. Li Xiao Ke started to sob pitifully. "I really miss him." she mumbled softly as she continued to press her left chest. The tears haven't stopped flowing either.
Li Jingmi sighed. "Restart." he said in his heart. Whenever Li Xiao Ke was drunk, she was always like this. Li Xiao Ke kept saying, I really miss him. But every time you ask, who do you miss? Li Xiao Ke just shook her head as she continued to cry.
Li Jingmi immediately hugged Li Xiao Ke and stroked his sister's head. From the bottom of his heart, he couldn't bear to see his sister so sad and depressed like this. When Li Xiao Ke was like this, he wanted to call Timmy and ask him to come over immediately. But on the other hand he also had to obey the orders of his king-like grandfather.
"Alright, let's go home." Li Jingmi immediately carried Li Xiao Ke on his back leaving the restaurant not far from their house.
Li Xiao Ke immediately slumped off Li Jingmi's back as soon as she saw the river they were crossing. Li Xiao Ke stood in front of the railing of the bridge, gazing at the not-so-heavy ripples of water, which flashed in the light of the bright city lights. The ripples seemed to remind her of something, but she didn't know what it was. Her longing for someone also increasingly shackles her mind, which in fact she does not know who she is missing.
