Big socks! Do you even understand how you kiss a villain?

With her conscience restored, Zuo You waved her hand and said, "How many flowers do you still have left to sell? I'll take them all!"

Shen An'an's eyes widened like saucers. "You want them all? I have so many at home, but, but buying so many will cost a lot of money."

"Don't worry, I have plenty of money."

"Then I'll give you what's in the basket today, and bring the rest tomorrow, okay?"

Shen An'an was very happy. She had more than thirty flowers in total, which could sell for a lot of money!

Zuo You's eyes lit up, and a plan came to her mind.

"But I have something to do tomorrow and can't come..."

"What about the day after tomorrow?" Shen An'an asked anxiously.

Zuo You touched her nose and said without any guilt, "The day after tomorrow? I have something to do the day after tomorrow too."

"Ah..." Shen An'an was very frustrated.

"Why don't you have your brother deliver it to me? I can give you the address." Zuo You's smile was almost impossible to suppress.

"No, no!" Shen An'an shook her head repeatedly. Her brother had already worked hard enough, and she couldn't trouble him any further.

"What should I do? I really love your flowers..." Zuo You said, looking like she was about to cry.

Shen An'an was a little at a loss. "How about... you come home with me to get it?"

"it is good!"

Poor Shen An'an didn't know she had been tricked, and was both shy and enthusiastic about helping Zuo You carry her things.

Zuo You didn't stand on ceremony and gave her half of the bag of snacks she was carrying, and casually stuffed a candy into her mouth.

Shen An'an stared at her with her mouth agape.

Zuo You ate one herself and mumbled, "Eat it, what are you looking at?"

"Mmm!" Shen An'an nodded, the sweet taste spreading on her tongue. She happily squinted her eyes, savoring the flavor.

"Shen An'an, is your brother home?" Zuo You reached out and poked her little braid.

Shen An'an shook her head and told the truth: "My brother isn't home. He went to help out at the barbecue restaurant."

As the two passed a mobile phone store, Zuo You reached out and grabbed Shen An'an's hand, asking, "Do you have a mobile phone?"

Shen An'an shook her head; only her brother in her family had a cell phone.

A moment later, Shen An'an held the pink button phone, her eyes filled with confusion. Why would this older sister give her such an expensive gift? Could she be a scammer?!

Zuo You looked at her and laughed: "Afraid I'm a human trafficker? Are there human traffickers as pretty and cute as me?"

Shen An'an shook her head.

"I'm giving you this phone so it'll be easier for us to stay in touch. Go back and practice typing, and I'll contact you if I need to buy flowers in the future."

The main purpose was to find out about Shen Yan's situation.

Shen An'an visibly breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking home with Zuo You, her two little braids bobbing up and down.

Zuo You's hands were itching again, so she poked her braid and said, "Kids like you are the easiest to be tricked by human traffickers. Next time any stranger talks to you, don't talk to them. Just call your brother. Of course, you can call me too."

“I know, my brother told me all of that.”

As Shen An'an spoke, she quietly moved closer to her. She wasn't angry that Zuo You was playing with her braids; she just thought that this pretty older sister smelled really nice.

"Shen An'an, have any older girls around my age contacted you recently?"

"No."

"Is your older sister looking for your older brother?"

"nor."

Zuo You felt relieved and lazily followed behind Shen An'an, taking the last two bags from her.

This Shen An'an is quite cute; I'd like to keep her as a pet.

Anyway, the main villain is dirt poor now, and a perfectly healthy young girl has become all wrinkled and unkempt.

Zuo You glanced at Shen An'an's ill-fitting clothes and faded hair tie with some disdain.

She always wanted a soft, cuddly little sister when she was a child, but she only had a twin brother.

Because she kept asking for a younger sister, and her brother kept asking for a older sister, the two argued fiercely until their father got a vasectomy in a fit of anger, ending the conflict once and for all!

"Sister, my house is just ahead. Watch out for puddles on the ground."

Shen An'an led Zuo You into a narrow, cramped alley. Every two steps along the concrete path, which was about two meters wide, there was a puddle with colorful halos shimmering on the surface.

After walking through the alley, Zuo You arrived at an older residential building, where Shen An'an took out her key.

Shen An'an put her things down and ran to the kitchen, calling out, "Sister, please sit down, I'll get you some water!"

"Slow down."

Zuo You sat down on the sofa and looked around the living room.

The living room wasn't large, but everything was arranged meticulously, just like her great-grandfather's house, where he had served in the military.

Zuo You noticed a folding bed in the corner, with a thin blanket and a pillow neatly folded on it.

That must be Shen Yan's bed.

"Sister, do you want to watch TV?" Shen An'an brought over some water and cut up some fruit that she was reluctant to eat, looking at her expectantly.

Zuo You lay sprawled on the sofa, looking more like the owner than the hostess. "I want to watch Balala!"

Shen An'an's eyes lit up. She also liked watching Balala, but she usually only turned on the TV when her brother came home, by which time Balala had already finished airing.

Soon, Zuo You's childhood memories started playing on TV. She watched for a while, then got sleepy and fell asleep on the sofa.

When Shen Yan returned, the room was pitch black and eerily quiet.

His heart tightened. "An'an?"

A small figure approached, and Shen Yan breathed a sigh of relief. "Why aren't the lights on?"

Shen An'an held up a finger, "Shh~ Sister is sleeping."

Shen Yan followed her gaze and saw a person lying on the sofa.

"Snapped!"

The incandescent light suddenly turned on. Zuo You rubbed her eyes, sat up, and mumbled sleepily, "Shen An'an, what time is it?"

Shen An'an glanced at her brother, whose face was gloomy, swallowed hard, and said, "It's ten o'clock."

"elder brother!"

Shen An'an tried to pull Shen Yan back, but one look from him made her look at Zuo You with worry.

"What are you doing here?" Shen Yan walked to the sofa, looked down at Zuo You, his eyes full of wariness.

Zuo Youteng sat up abruptly, all sleepiness vanishing instantly.

"I... Shen An'an brought me here." The villain's eyes were too scary, so Zuo You shifted the blame.

[Oh my God, why didn't you wake me up, Brother Qiang?!]

Shen Yan's expression was cold and stern. "I don't care what your purpose is. Stay away from Shen An'an. It's getting late. Please go back."

"Wait a minute, let me explain!" Zuo You stood up. "I didn't do anything! You can ask Shen An'an if you don't believe me!"

[Oh my god, does he think I'm going to bully Shen An'an? I'm more wronged than Dou E! I was only going to bully him!]

Shen Yan's eyes flickered, and the coldness around him dissipated somewhat.

"Brother, I'm the one who wanted to sell flowers to this sister, don't be angry..." Shen An'an stuffed the money Zuo You gave her into Shen Yan's hand.

Shen Yan held the money, which was still warm from his body, and looked at Zuo You with a complicated expression.

Zuo You raised her head and said confidently, "Did you hear that? I'm a guest! Not a bad person!"

"Look at how you act as a brother! Letting a little kid like her go out to buy flowers, what if she ran into bad people? Thank goodness she found me!"

No wonder poor Shen An'an was so bewitched by the female lead that she even went so far as to shield her from harm.

Shen Yan's pupils constricted. All of her abnormal behavior seemed to be related to the so-called female lead, and now it also involved An An.

She seemed to know something he didn't.
