My sister is Luna

The white-haired mixed-race boy skillfully hunts with a shotgun and always returns with a full catch. His younger brother always stands at the door, blinking his big eyes as he watches him return. The two depend on each other for survival, and although their lives are hard, they are happy.

"Pinky promise, brothers, never to be apart!" Having made this vow, they believed nothing could break it.

Until... war broke out.

The war spread to their hometown. After the battle ended, he returned only to find that his younger brother had disappeared and his last remaining relative was gone.

I did not keep my promise.

But instead of being devastated and despondent, he rallied, shouldered his hunting rifle, and the white-haired boy began his search. He firmly believed that his brother was still alive, waiting for him somewhere, waiting for his return. Whether it was comforting or self-deception, he always believed it.

In the blink of an eye, today, what you keep in mind will surely come to pass. The familiar person who has grown up appears before him, and his longing has finally been answered.

"Xuan, Xuan Ce!"

Bai Li Shouyue's lips trembled as he saw the familiar figure gradually approaching the Great Wall.

After so long, the family he had been searching for finally appeared, and he was overwhelmed with excitement.

At this moment, he, who was usually mild-mannered and calm, was so out of control that he had long forgotten about his work and ran down the Great Wall.

"The Great Wall is right in front of us, we'll be there soon. Xuan Ce, can you hold on?" Hua Mulan said as she walked towards the towering Great Wall.

"Of course, I still have plenty of energy!" Baili Xuance replied loudly, full of vigor. But in his heart, he was filled with unease.

I'll see my brother soon, won't I? Will he recognize me? What does he look like now? Will he hate me...?

Baili Xuance's mind was filled with these thoughts; he felt both anticipation and unease.

"Shouyue, where are you going? You seem to be in such a hurry." A passing soldier asked Shouyue.

But he did not respond at all; he simply walked quickly down the Great Wall.

The saying goes, "The closer one gets to home, the more timid one becomes," and the same applies to the feelings one has when seeing relatives.

"Very good, then let's charge towards the Great Wall in one go," Mulan smiled with satisfaction, and quickened her pace.

"Mm." Baili Xuance replied, and followed closely behind Hua Mulan.

As they drew closer to the Great Wall, Baili Xuance became somewhat distracted. After all, he was about to see his brother, and his feelings were quite complicated.

"Oh, you can't wait that long?" Mulan suddenly saw a white figure running out from the Great Wall, a smile playing on her lips, and she stopped.

"Sister Mulan, where do we stop..."

Before Xuan Ce could finish speaking, feeling puzzled, he suddenly saw a white-haired youth appear beneath the Great Wall. The youth had a gentle face and crimson eyes that looked at him tenderly, just like the one who had comforted him in his childhood memories. Although it wasn't the same figure from his childhood, he could still see the shadow of the person he longed for.

The two stood there, stunned. Mulan smiled knowingly and quietly left, leaving them some space. The brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time and must have a lot to say. It was better for her, an outsider, not to interfere.

For a moment, it seemed as if the world had fallen silent, leaving only the two of them.

Although they had both grown up and looked different from before, the wonderful resonance of their blood ties made them realize that they were brothers, family members whose blood was thicker than water.

Their eyes met, and a multitude of emotions flashed within them. The two, finally meeting, hesitated to step forward, fearing it was all just a beautiful dream. The two, one in red and one in white, remained silent for a long time.

"Brother, brother!" Finally, Baili Xuance broke the silence first, choking back tears as he spoke.

"Yes, Xuan Ce, your brother has finally found you."

Bai Li Shouyue had tears in his eyes, but he still tried his best to maintain a gentle smile as he walked step by step toward Bai Li Xuance.

Baili Xuance also began to step forward, and finally the two embraced tightly.

"Brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother...!"

The tangible and warm embrace brought Baili Xuance to tears of joy. He called out again and again, tirelessly, tears streaming down his face. He had become the same crybaby he used to be, protected by his brother.

"Mmm, mmm, mmm..."

With tears in his eyes and a smile on his face, Baili Shouyue responded patiently again and again. Holding Baili Xuance tightly in his arms, he would never let go of Xuance so easily again, never repeat the mistakes of the past, never relive the past sorrow.

"Finally, finally I see you again, brother. Do you know how much I missed you? Every night I thought about why you didn't keep your promise and hated you for abandoning me. But when I finally saw you, I couldn't hate you anymore. It turns out that all I had in my heart was the hope of seeing you again..." Baili Xuance cried in Baili Shouyue's arms.

"Alright, alright, don't cry, don't cry. Xuan Ce, you've suffered. I won't break my promise again."

Upon hearing Baili Xuance's words, Baili Shouyue felt a pang of pain in his heart. He lovingly stroked Baili Xuance's hair, just as he had comforted Baili Xuance when he was prone to tears.

"Alright, no need to cry anymore, Xuan Ce. We'll never be separated again. You must be tired after traveling all the way to the Great Wall with Mulan. It's already noon, so I'll cook for you. You used to always pester me to cook for you." Baili Shouyue said softly.

"Yes, it's been so long since I've had my brother's cooking!" Baili Xuance smiled through his tears and nodded emphatically.

Baili Shouyue brought Baili Xuance back to the Great Wall.

"Ugh, you guys were so mushy just now. It gave me goosebumps. It's just a brother reunion, did it have to be like this?"

Watching everything unfold from the Great Wall, Shen Mengxi feigned disdain, a hint of envy and jealousy flashing in her eyes.

"That's because you don't understand..." Baili Xuance said, then suddenly realized that the person in front of him looked somewhat familiar.

"Ah, it's you! You're actually here?!" Baili Xuance exclaimed in surprise, recalling the person who had left a deep impression on him.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to still remember this cat..." Shen Mengxi said with a smug smile.

"Little cat selling bombs! Too bad you're terrible at throwing them; you hit me on the head last time." Baili Xuance clapped his hands and said loudly.

"What kitten?! My name is Shen Mengxi, where am I small?!" Shen Mengxi suddenly bristled, baring her teeth angrily as she spoke:

"Also, in terms of official rank, I am higher than you, so you should call me superior!"

"Yes, yes, sir. Xuan Ce, how do we get there? I'll cook you something delicious. It's been so long since I've seen you. I have so much to tell you."

Baili Shouyue gave a perfunctory reply. Then, ignoring Shen Mengxi, he pulled Baili Xuance away.

"Ugh, damn it! So what if you have an older brother? So what if you have a younger brother? I want one too... Humph, I'm not envious at all! Absolutely not!" Shen Mengxi said angrily, kicking the city wall as she watched the Baili brothers walk away.

"Besides, I still have my own little brothers (in my opinion). If Cain were here, that would be great," Shen Mengxi said somewhat forlornly.

Cain was the only one who was truly close to him. He was proud of this hero who saved the Great Wall and was one of the few friends he truly respected.

……

Half a year passed in this way. Baili Xuance joined the Great Wall Guard. The two brothers had a very good relationship and would even patrol the Great Wall together, fighting against the occasional harassment of the bandit gang. Shen Mengxi would pick fights with them from time to time. This pair of bickering lovers were hard to beat, winning one moment and losing the next. Rather than picking fights and provoking each other, in other people's eyes it was more like playing around.

Until, a familiar person and a stranger set foot on the Great Wall.
