"Big Brother Luo Xuyan," I said, "don't be scared, I had acupuncture this afternoon too, it didn't hurt at all. As the younger brother, I'm not afraid, so you, as the older brother, definitely shouldn't be. Otherwise, other people will laugh at you."
After hearing that, Luo Xuyan, with a sobbing voice, replied, "Okay, I'm not scared, I won't cry, I'm the big brother."
Then he really sat there without moving, waiting for Luo Qiao with his body tensed up, a nervous look on his face.
Luo Qiao reassured him, "Big Brother, don't be so tense, it really doesn't hurt at all."
While speaking, she picked up a needle and poked herself a few times in the hand: "Look, even a girl like me isn't scared, so you, as the big brother, have nothing to fear, right?"
Luo Xuyan watched Luo Qiao's hand for a long time, and perhaps seeing that it really was like play for her and that there was no bleeding, finally said, "Mhm, I'm not scared anymore."
