Xiaonan didn't really care about what Qiuyan said, because she wasn't the type of person who liked to run around and buy things. What interested Xiaonan was why Qiuyan suddenly said this to her, so after thinking about it, Xiaonan asked tentatively, "Brother, does your sister always like you to buy things for her?"

"Yes!" Qiu Yan replied lightly, then looked up at the sky and continued, "My younger sister is a foodie. Every time we go out, she always pesters me to buy her food. If I don't buy it, she will complain about me in front of our father, saying that I don't study hard, have a premature love affair at school, fight with classmates and so on. In short, she is trying to find ways to let my parents teach me a lesson. So under normal circumstances, I dare not mess with her." Qiu Yan's tone sounded a little helpless when she said this, but there was some relief in the helplessness.

After listening to Qiu Yan's words, Xiao Nan thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Brother, I didn't expect you to be so fond of your sister."

"Spoil?" Qiu Yan sneered when he heard Xiao Nan say that, and then said, "If I wasn't afraid that my parents would beat me, I would have wanted to screw her ears like screws!"

Hearing Qiu Yan's words, Xiao Nan covered her mouth and chuckled, then said, "Although I don't know what a screw is, but from what you said, your sister must have bullied you a lot."

"Just bully her, she's my only sister," Qiu Yan said indifferently.

"Brother, am I not your sister now? Or do you think you don't even consider me as your sister in your heart?" Xiaonan said this with a serious expression, because this matter was the most important to her.

After listening to Xiaonan's words, Qiuyan suddenly thought of Xiaonan as her sister now, so she glanced at the serious Xiaonan, then said with a smile, "Of course I treat you as my sister, otherwise why would I bring you out to experience?" After that, Qiuyan wanted to reach out and touch Xiaonan's head, just like he used to touch his own sister's head, but before he stretched out his hand, Qiuyan hesitated, because although Qiuyan could treat her like her own sister, Xiaonan was not her own sister after all, and Qiuyan thought it was better not to have such physical contact. Thinking of this, Qiuyan retracted his hand that had not yet been stretched out, then smiled and continued, "Don't worry! I will treat you like my own sister, so you don't have to think too much."

Xiaonan saw Qiuyan raising her hand and then putting it down. Her brother often touched her head, so she knew what Qiuyan wanted to do. She also knew why Qiuyan put his hand down. After all, they were not siblings. However, Xiaonan didn't care too much about it at this time. Or, if she wasn't a biological sister, she wasn't a biological sister. No matter how much she cared, she couldn't change this fact. So Xiaonan just smiled and nodded to Qiuyan and said, "Yes! Brother, I will be a good sister to you."

Seeing Xiaonan's well-behaved appearance, Qiuyan smiled, and then didn't say anything more. The two began to hurry on their way again. After walking a few steps, Xiaonan looked at Qiuyan who looked leisurely, and thought about what Qiuyan had done just now when he wanted to touch her head but then gave up. Although she forced herself not to care about this, she didn't know why she couldn't let go of what had just happened. So after hesitating for a while, Xiaonan couldn't help but ask Qiuyan, "Brother, did you always like to touch your sister's head before?"

"I guess so!" Qiu Yan answered directly, and then continued, "But my sister doesn't like me touching her like that. Every time I touch her head, she will catch me and beat me up."

"Why?" Xiaonan felt very strange when she heard Qiuyan's words, because her biological brother also often touched her head, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, she thought it was a sign that her brother liked her.

"Because my sister cares a lot about her hairstyle. She said that every time I touched her head, it would mess up her hairstyle, so she hit me." Qiu Yan said lightly.

"Oh!" Xiaonan nodded after hearing Qiuyan's words, then smiled and said to Qiuyan, "Hair is very important for girls, no wonder your sister beat you." At this point, Qiuyan rolled his eyes at Xiaonan, as if to say that you know more! But at this time, Xiaonan saw Qiuyan's eyes and didn't care. After thinking for a while, he said to Qiuyan, "By the way, brother, who is older, me or your sister?"

Hearing Xiaonan ask this question, Qiuyan was silent for a while. When Qiuyan first came to this world, his sister was thirteen years old. Now it has been almost three years, and she is about sixteen years old. So thinking of this, Qiuyan said to Xiaonan, "My sister should be sixteen years old this year, older than you."

After listening to Qiuyan, Xiaonan nodded and murmured, "If she is sixteen, I should call her sister." After that, Xiaonan suddenly became curious about this sister who was two years older than her, so she showed a naive and lovely smile on her face and asked Qiuyan, "Where is my sister now? Can we see her when we go out this time?"

Hearing Xiaonan's words, Qiuyan's steps suddenly paused, and the expression on her face changed, but then Qiuyan returned to normal, because she didn't want Xiaonan to know that he was from another world. So thinking of this, Qiuyan said to Xiaonan, "I can't see her. My sister is at home now, and my home is very far away from here." Qiuyan simply explained the situation to Xiaonan.

"Oh!" Xiaonan showed a trace of disappointment on his face when he heard Qiuyan say this. Seeing the disappointment on Xiaonan's face, Qiuyan smiled and comforted him, "But don't worry, although my home is very far away from here, I will go home one day, and then maybe you can see my sister." Qiuyan's words were simply to comfort Xiaonan, because in fact, let alone Xiaonan, even he himself was not sure whether he could see his own sister again.

After hearing what Qiuyan said, Xiaonan's disappointed face showed a smile again. She nodded and said to Qiuyan, "Then we have a deal. When you go home, you must ask me to go back with you, so that I can see my sister, your other sister." Xiaonan did not say that that was Qiuyan's biological sister at this time, but used the term "another sister" to describe it, because Xiaonan did not want to use the relationship between her and Qiuyan to solidify whether they were related or not.

"Yeah!" Qiu Yan nodded heavily after hearing Xiao Nan's words, then smiled and said nothing more. After the chat just now, Xiao Nan's mood also improved a lot, which Qiu Yan was quite relieved about.

The two walked along the winding path for an unknown amount of time before a three-way intersection appeared in front of them. At the three-way intersection, Qiu Yan stopped and looked carefully at the two forks in front of him. One fork led to the southeast, and the other led to the northeast. Both forks were curved and forward with no end in sight. Seeing this, Qiu Yan asked Xiao Nan next to him, "Where should we go next?"

Xiaonan was in a daze at this moment, not knowing what she was thinking. It was only when she heard Qiuyan's words that she came back to her senses. Then she thought about what Qiuyan had just said, and replied directly, "It's all right. I'll listen to my brother."

After hearing Xiaonan's answer, Qiuyan was speechless for a moment. He thought that Xiaonan looked stupid, but actually she was not very smart. He clearly wanted her to point out a way to get to the town, but she actually said this to him. Was it because he didn't express himself clearly? After thinking about it, Qiuyan said to Xiaonan again, "No, brother means which way we should take to get to the town?"

Hearing what Qiu Yan meant, Xiao Nan seemed a little embarrassed. He looked at the two forks in the road before him, then pointed to the one leading to the northeast and said, "Take this one. This road leads to Xichui Town."

After listening to Xiaonan's words, Qiuyan said "oh", and then he started to move forward along the road Xiaonan pointed. While walking, Qiuyan asked Xiaonan, "By the way, Xiaonan, is the Xichui Town you just mentioned the town where Qingtianshi's father is the director?"

When Xiaonan heard Qiuyan mention Qingtianshi, she looked a little worried, but she still nodded and said to Qiuyan, "Yes, Qingtianshi's father is the director of the Xichui Town Yamen."

"Oh! What kind of official position is the director of the town government? Is it the same as the mayor?" Qiu Yan asked curiously.

"Almost," Xiaonan nodded.

Hearing Xiaonan's answer, Qiuyan nodded in understanding, and then said, "No wonder Qingtianshi dares to be so arrogant, it seems that he really has some backers." After Qiuyan finished speaking, he glanced at Xiaonan next to him, and saw that Xiaonan's face changed obviously after hearing the three words Qingtianshi, as if he had heard something terrible, so Qiuyan smiled and said to Xiaonan, "Xiaonan, to put it bluntly, Qingtianshi is just a second-generation official who bullies others by taking advantage of his power. He himself has no ability, so you don't need to be afraid of him. Besides, I am here, let alone the son of a director, even if he is the son of the city lord, I will not let him bully you again!"
