Capítulo 904: Chapter 904: She’s the Only One Closest to Me “You can be my honorary younger brother, and I’ll be your honorary older sister. If anyone bullies you, I’ll avenge you.” “Why do you insist I become your brother?” Leng Yan looked at her. Xia Nuo laughed, “If you’re not my brother, what else could you be?” Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾※𝙣𝙚𝙩 Leng Yan moved his lips but ultimately said nothing. Xia Nuo suddenly sighed, “Actually, I was supposed to have a younger brother or sister.” Meeting his eyes, she shrugged, “But it was gone before birth. Because of that, my grandmother developed high blood pressure and became increasingly unwell. Not long after, she was gone too.” Hearing her speak with sadness, Leng Yan gently asked, “Why was it gone?” “I don’t know either. Mom just said the fetus was disturbed.” It was all old news, and as children, they couldn’t feel too sad about it. After a few words, they didn’t bring up the matter again. Time passed quickly; Xia Nuo was in ninth grade, and Leng Yan had entered sixth grade. Their relationship got better and better, though outsiders couldn’t see it. Xia Nuo felt their bond was strong. At least he listened to everything she said and never contradicted her. Except for making him her brother, he agreed to all her other requests. After bringing it up a few times and seeing he truly had no interest in being her brother, Xia Nuo stopped mentioning it. This year, Leng Yan’s mother returned a few times, each time staying a night before leaving again. Xia Nuo thought to herself, she only came back to see if her son was alive or dead, right? Still, Xia Nuo’s parents were also often absent. Mr. Xia was busy working hard to earn a good inheritance for his daughter, so he could only work tirelessly. Mrs. Xia, naturally, stayed wherever her husband was. Because neither set of parents were often at home, the two children grew closer and regarded each other as family. This feeling wasn’t strong for Xia Nuo yet, but for Leng Yan, the closest person in the world to him was just her. They say youth is unaware of sorrow, and in the blink of an eye, it was summer again. Xia Nuo wondered why time flew by so quickly, as if in a blink. Now she was already over fourteen years old and soon graduating from middle school. Leng Yan was also soon graduating from elementary school, having turned nine. Because Xia Nuo was five years older than him, even though he had grown taller and aged a year, he remained just a child in her eyes. Early in the morning, Xia Nuo opened the door to call Leng Yan to go to school together, and the door across opened. “Xiao Yan, you have to agree even if you don’t want to. You’re young, and I always have to consider what’s best for you.” “If you really cared, you wouldn’t act .” Leng Yan said with a cold smile. Yin Cui frowned slightly and stepped out, saying faintly, “Let’s not discuss this now; I’ll talk to you when I come back later.” She reached the staircase and saw Xia Nuo watching them. Changing her usual indifferent attitude, Yin Cui smiled at her, “Little sister, my Leng Yan has received quite a bit of your care lately. I see Xiao Yan is close to you; could you help auntie persuade him…” “Aren’t you leaving? Why aren’t you gone yet? Do you want me to walk you downstairs?” Leng Yan interrupted coldly. Yin Cui glanced at him and noticed the threat in his words. There was someone waiting downstairs; if he followed her, how could she possibly allow that? “Xiao Yan, Mom is leaving. Take good care of yourself. If you need money, let me know.” Then Yin Cui left.
