I transmigrated into the villain's white moonlight, but the protagonist is my brother.

It gets dark early now, and the two children will be going home soon after dinner.

Given what happened recently, it's safer to go home as soon as possible.

Zhou Panpan reluctantly pulled Xie Yan to say goodbye, while Feng Shaoyang waved and left.

After seeing the two young guests off, Yang Huiyun turned around to clear the table and wash the dishes.

Shen Yan sat on the sofa, reading a comic book she had been looking at for several days.

He never went to school and couldn't read; he could only look at brightly colored pictures.

Xie Yan sat next to him, staring blankly at his leg in a cast.

She has indeed been busy these past few days, raising money for Shen Yan's leg surgery.

After all, she has a script and knows things that others don't. In the past few days, a major grain-producing province in the south has been hit by torrential rains and floods.

In what should have been a bountiful harvest season, it wasn't exactly a complete crop failure, but the losses were certainly severe.

From a market economy perspective, what will happen next is a rise in food prices.

Xie Yan shamelessly asked Wang Lingyu for a thousand yuan.

This amount of money is an astronomical figure for a child; even Zhou Panpan only has five yuan of pocket money every day.

But Wang Yuling lent it to Xie Yan without saying a word and asked no questions.

After all, Wang Lingyu is not short of money. Even if she doesn't have to pay it back, Xie Yan indirectly helped her family so much that no amount of money is too much.

After receiving the money, Xie Yan secretly took an empty bank card that Yang Huiyun no longer used and deposited the money into it. Before the stock price rose, she used it all to buy grain and seed stocks.

She's been going to Zhou Panpan's house a lot lately because Zhou's family has a computer so she can check the stock market situation.

Since I don't have a computer at home and can't get into internet cafes, this is the only option.

Today she transferred the borrowed principal of 1,000 yuan back to Wang Yuling, and the remaining 8,000 yuan in the account is pure profit from the past few days.

Judging from the situation, the price might rise for a few more days, so Xie Yan wasn't in a hurry to sell.

However, she did this without Yang Huiyun's knowledge, otherwise it would be too shocking for a third-grade elementary school student to make tens of thousands of yuan in the stock market in just a few days.

Fortunately, the villain's leg was saved, and Xie Yan felt much more relaxed.

Shen Yan's long eyelashes drooped as he carefully read the comic book, turning to the next page after finishing one.

Out of the corner of his eye, Shen Yan noticed Xie Yan's smiling face. He spoke softly, but his gaze remained fixed on the comic book.

Are you happy?

"Mmm," Xie Yan nodded with a smile, looking at Shen Yan's exquisitely beautiful profile with an air of ease, "The weather is lovely today."

"Yeah."

His voice was devoid of emotion, but after speaking for the past few days, Shen Yan's voice sounded much clearer than before, finally possessing a touch of childlike innocence and cuteness.

Shen Yan looked at the abstract characters in the comic book, then turned to look at the window after a few seconds.

It was already dark, and the big trees outside the window were bare, with nothing there.

If you listen carefully, you can even hear the sound of the wind howling past.

He didn't know what was so good about the weather, but he couldn't go downstairs or go anywhere.

The cast on my leg is actually less convenient than when it wasn't in one.

Shen Yan pursed her thin lips, her face turning somewhat somber.

Although Shen Yan usually has a world-weary and expressionless face, Xie Yan noticed that the little villain seemed to be in low spirits at this moment.

Seeing that his little face had become a little rounder from being pampered these past few days, Xie Yan couldn't resist reaching out and pinching it.

Shen Yan was stunned when someone pinched her cheek for the first time in her life.

When someone gently pinched the flesh of Shen Yan's left cheek, her eyes widened in surprise, revealing a childlike shock.

It's so soft to the touch, so cute! It looks a bit like that adorable little boy from the other day.

Xie Yan leaned closer and whispered a teasing message in Shen Yan's ear.

"If you call me 'sister,' I'll tell you some good news."

Warm breath sprayed on Shen Yan's ear, making his ears turn red.

Shen Yan remained in the position of having her face pinched, her brows furrowing slightly, looking both comical and adorable.

"...What news?"

"I'll only speak if you call me 'sister'."

"..." Shen Yan pursed her lips, remaining silent once again.

Xie Yan glanced at his legs while guiding him, her tone mysterious, "It's related to your legs, don't you want to know?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yan couldn't help but glance at her leg, which was in a cast.

He really wanted to take this thing apart.

So he looked at Xie Yan and called out in a dry, labored voice.

"elder sister."

Hahaha!

Her wicked scheme succeeded, and the joy of teasing the child made Xie Yan smile from ear to ear.

She let go of his hand, then rubbed Shen Yan's face a couple more times, the soft, bouncy texture making her love it.

After spending several days together, Xie Yan found Shen Yan increasingly adorable. Apart from being a bit quiet and aloof, he was actually just an adorable kid who loved to daydream.

She was far more well-behaved than her mischievous younger brother.

Shen Yan continued to watch her quietly.

Xie Yan cleared her throat, stopped teasing him, and leaned closer to whisper, "Your leg can have surgery now, so it won't hurt anymore."

After a while, Shen Yan simply said "oh" without much reaction and turned back to look at the comic.

Xie Yan was somewhat dissatisfied with this reaction.

Although I know that the villain's character won't allow him to show obvious happiness, I hope he can at least show some.

The protagonist's face in the comic book was suddenly covered by a hand. The hand was small and fair, and the owner of the hand was none other than Xie Yan.

She forcefully blocked the comic book from being read, tilted her head to look at Shen Yan, and asked in a naive, confused, and innocent tone, "Such good news, aren't you happy?"

"Once your leg is healed, it won't hurt when you walk, and you can go out and play."

"Oh, right, you can also go to school, like me."

"You can still pick me up from school, haha!"

"...So, are you happy?"

After another long while, Shen Yan seemed to feel a weight on his shoulders, sighed softly, and said, "Happy."

What kind of reaction is this?

Before Xie Yan could ask any questions, Shen Yan continued speaking.

"The surgery is very expensive."

The eight-year-old child said this expressionlessly, as if he had never had any hope in this matter.

He was more inclined to believe that Xie Yan was just teasing him.

Xie Yan raised an eyebrow, tilted her chin, and said, "It's okay, I have money."

Shen Yan looked over again and saw her smiling like a cunning cat.

If she says so, then it is.

night.

Xie Yan lay on her small bed.

A mattress was laid out on the floor next to them; it turned out to be Shen Yan's makeshift bed.

They've been sleeping like this for the past few days.

On the day she arrived, Yang Huiyun thought that, just like before, she and Xie Yan would sleep in one room, and Shen Yan would sleep in another room.

But this time Shen Yan refused.

He said he might be staying for several days and couldn't take Xie Yan's bed.

The sofa was a bit high and narrow, and Yang Huiyun was afraid he would fall off in the middle of the night.

In the end, Shen Yan actually made a makeshift bed next to Xie Yan's bed and slept there for several days.
