green shell

Xiang Jiuqi sat on the soft sofa, her back straightened, she stared at the coffee table without squinting, her fingers curled up on her lap.

This is what Xiang Yang saw when he walked over with a cold coke.Seeing Xiang Jiuqi's cautious look, he paused, then he probably stepped on his heels, making the slippers make a "da da" sound, and when Xiang Jiuqi looked over, he passed the Coke to her, and smiled at her: "We don't have any other beverages at home, only Coke."

"It's okay." Xiang Jiuqi's eyes widened all of a sudden, took the Coke, and smiled, "Thank you."

Xiang Yang sat down beside Xiang Jiuqi, turned on the TV with the remote control, and tuned to the natural channel as the background sound.

He just confirmed the text message when he entered the door.Xiang Jiuqi sent him several text messages and called him a few times, but he never went to confirm.Seeing Xiang Jiuqi appearing at the door of the house now, it was at this time of noon, so she probably couldn't stand it and ran out.

He considered his tone and words, and said softly: "Have you eaten yet?"

Xiang Jiuqi took a sip of Coke, and when he heard him ask, she shook her head cautiously, and then asked hesitantly, "Have you...have you eaten?"

"Not yet," Xiang Yang looked towards the kitchen: "Lu Yi is working on it."

"Oh..." Xiang Jiuqi nodded slightly, and looked at the TV again, not knowing what to say.

Xiang Yang didn't know what to say.He couldn't like Xiang Jiuqi's family, but Xiang Jiuqi was very similar to Lu Yi, so his feelings for Xiang Jiuqi became complicated.

He knew that Xiang Jiuqi was very restrained, but he didn't know if he was willing to let Xiang Jiuqi let go of this restraint to him.

He remembered what Lu Xun had said to him in the kitchen just now.

"I think you need to talk to her. She called us so many times because she couldn't help it. Anyway, she is only nine years old." Lu Yi took out the vegetables in the refrigerator and turned his head. Looking at the troubled Xiangyang, she pursed her lips with a clear smile: "You hate her home."

Xiang Yang raised his eyes, bit his lower lip and drooped his brows without retorting.

Lu Yi put the vegetables into the sink and asked him softly: "Then do you hate her?"

No.

Before Xiang Yang opened his mouth, his mind answered for him.He took a breath, then exhaled heavily, and lowered his eyes.

Lu Yi smiled slightly, and turned on the faucet: "Then talk to her?"

Xiang Yang raised his eyes again, looked at Lu Yi without speaking.

"It's not her fault that she was born in that kind of family, she also wants to get out of there," Lu Yi turned off the tap and looked towards Xiangyang: "She has no shelter, unlike me, I think when she was this age my grandma still exist."

Xiang Yang's brows trembled imperceptibly.

What Lu Yi said was the reason why he was soft-hearted towards Xiang Jiuqi again and again.

She has similarities with Lu Yi's past.

Lu Yi looked at Xiang Yang and was still hesitant, knowing that this matter cannot be forced, he smiled and relaxed his tone: "Or you ask her if she likes eating meatballs? Maybe she will pester me to make meatballs for her too?"

A smile finally appeared on Xiang Yang's face.

"Got it," he said, leaned over and rubbed Lu Yi's shoulder, and kissed Lu Yi's shoulder during a pause: "I'll pour her a Coke."

The sound of the explanation on the TV brought Xiang Yang back to his thoughts, and he realized that Xiang Jiuqi had already finished his coke, and was just holding the empty cup and staring at the TV in a daze.

He shook his legs, looked at the TV, coughed lightly and said in a low voice: "Lu Yi may make meatballs today." He smiled and looked at Jiu Qi: "The meatballs he made are delicious, later You'll know it when you eat it."

There was a moment of astonishment on Xiang Jiuqi's face, and then she lowered her head deeply.

Xiang Yang saw clearly the expression she showed before she bowed her head, as if she was about to cry, and then remembered Lu Yi's expression when she was talking to him, his heart softened, he raised his hand and slowly put it on Xiang Jiuqi's shoulder and patted it :"never mind."

Xiang Jiuqi raised his head, Xiangyang saw the tears that were about to overflow from her eyes, hesitated for a moment, put his other hand on her shoulder, and asked softly, "Would you like to talk about it?"

Xiang Jiuqi sniffed, reached out and grabbed Xiang Yang's sleeve: "...they have been arguing all night."

Xiang Yang let Xiang Jiuqi pull on his sleeve, and was taken aback when she heard her start talking, but didn't speak, waiting for her to continue.

Xiang Jiuqi hurriedly wiped away the falling tears: "...they have been arguing like this for two weeks, and I have to walk out of a pile of debris every day when I go to school, and I have to be careful not to let the things they throw hit me I didn't dare to sign the notice given by the school teacher for a week, because they always have things in their hands, and I dare not go over..."

Xiang Yang frowned, and noticed the redness and swelling on Xiang Jiuqi's left forehead. Hearing Xiang Jiuqi's crying words, he felt very uncomfortable, so he reached out and hugged Xiang Jiuqi lightly, and patted her on the back. Said: "It's okay, it's okay, you're safe here, it's okay."

He thought of Sun Qian's smile with her stomach outstretched.

She said that Xiang Yuan would love their children, so why did Xiang Jiuqi go through this?

"I don't want to go to school, and I don't want to go home," Xiang Jiuqi whimpered, "I don't know if I can come to your place..."

"Yes," Xiang Yang gently held Xiang Jiuqi's face, wiped away her tears, looked at her light-colored eyes full of tears, and smiled at her comfortingly: "You just said to sign? Why do you need to sign?"

Xiang Jiuqi raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face with her sleeve, and took out a crumpled notice from her schoolbag: "June [-] event."

Xiang Yang took the notice and looked slowly: "A school event?"

"...Well," Xiang Jiuqi bowed her head: "I still need a small dress and my parents to accompany me, neither of which I have."

Xiang Yang shifted his gaze from the notification to Xiang Jiuqi, paused for a while, then shook the notification in his hand, and smiled at Jiu Qi: "It says that it is accompanied by family members?"

Xiang Jiuqi raised her head all of a sudden.

Xiang Yang pursed her lips and shrugged: "I don't have a small dress, but I can ask the big sister from last time, she might know where to have it."

Not impulsive.

Xiang Yang clearly knew that what he said and did was not impulsive, but that he really wanted to do it.

What Lu Yi said was right, it was not her fault that Xiang Jiuqi was born in that family, he couldn't just sneer at Xiang Jiuqi just because of Sun Qian and Xiang Yuan, that would be unfair to Xiang Jiuqi.

Some people have done harm to Lu Yi because of Lu Yi's family, and he cannot be the same as those people.

Nobody deserves to be insulted.

Besides, Xiang Jiuqi is actually a very sensible little girl.

Xiang Jiuqi then showed an expression between crying and laughing: "...Thank you."

Xiang Yang accepted the thanks with a smile, thought for a while, and said, "Also, you can call Lu Yi and me 'brother' in the future, of course, you can also call him sister-in-law."

Xiang Jiuqi laughed through her tears, and after a while she calmed down, and her mood was obviously higher: "Did I disturb something just now?"

"At the door?" Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows: "What do you think?"

"Are you guys going to kiss me?" Xiang Jiuqi moved closer.

Xiang Yang pursed her lips, noncommittal.

"That's great," Xiang Jiuqi sat back and said, "You guys like each other."

"Well," Xiang Yang nodded and admitted, looking at Xiang Jiuqi so naturally, he was a little puzzled: "I'm with Lu Yi, don't you think there's something wrong?"

It is absolutely impossible for Sun Qian to think that homosexuality is normal, and Xiang Yang feels a little strange that Xiang Jiuqi is so natural.

"What's wrong?" Xiang Jiuqi felt that it was wrong for Xiang Yang to ask this question: "You are always smiling when you look at each other, he will wait for you and you will wait for him, you have a home, and you still kiss each other, This is great, my parents are not as happy as you are."

Xiang Yang stared at Xiang Jiuqi in a daze for a while, and then continued to say tentatively: "Some people may think it's strange that I and Lu Yi are together, because we are both boys."

"Why do some people think it's strange that others are happy?" Xiang Jiuqi raised an eyebrow: "It's not strange at all."

Xiang Yang paused, and finally looked at Xiang Jiuqi with a smile: "Yes, it's not surprising."

"Someone said you are strange?" The little girl suddenly realized, her eyes widened: "Who?"

Xiang Yang was amused by her. "No one," he stretched out his hand and pressed Jiu Qi's forehead: "Why are you so fierce?"

The tails of Xiang Jiuqi's eyes were drooped by him, but she was happy because of his sudden smile that touched the bottom of her eyes.

When Lu Yi came out of the kitchen, he saw Xiang Yang and Xiang Jiuqi playing games together. He raised his eyebrows in surprise, and saw that Xiang Yang was concentrating on helping Xiang Jiuqi, smiled slightly, and turned around. Moved several plates of dishes to the coffee table in the hall.

Wherever you eat, you can eat.

There is a good atmosphere there, and he doesn't want to destroy it.

When Xiang Yang was whispering to Xiang Jiuqi that he was going this way, he saw Lu Yi walking over with a plate out of the corner of his eye, "Why did you take so much all at once?"

"Not much," Lu Yi put the plate in his hand on the table, looked at Xiang Jiuqi and looked at himself, smiled at her, then looked at the screen and reminded: "We're about to hit you."

So Xiang Jiuqi looked at the screen again, a little flustered, but at least it landed safely.

Seeing how relieved she was after landing, Xiang Yang couldn't help laughing, and while helping Lu Yi put down the last plate from his hand, he watched Jiu Qi operate.

Lu Yi's eyes turned between Xiang Yang and Xiang Jiuqi a few times, he also laughed, and asked Xiang Yang softly: "A few more bowls of rice, do you want to take them together?"

"I'll get it, you take a break," Xiang Yang looked away from the screen, with a smile on his face: "You are better at this game than me."

Lu Yi looked at the smile in his eyes, didn't say anything, and sat directly beside Xiang Jiuqi, watching her playing or not talking.

Xiang Jiuqi thought that Lu Yi was going to say something, and she was very nervous at first, but Lu Yi didn't say anything until Xiang Yang brought the rice back, which surprised her a little.

Lu Yi took the rice from Xiang Yang's hand, put a bowl in front of Xiang Jiuqi, and waited until she finished fighting the little boss before saying: "Save a file here, and play later after eating."

Xiang Jiuqi did as he said, put down the handle before looking at the rice in front of him, and then said sincerely: "Wow."

Lu Yi moved to the side while watching her reaction, raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows at Xiang Yang.

Xiangyang was amused, and after sitting between Lu Yi and Xiang Jiuqi, he secretly kicked Lu Yi, and handed the chopsticks in his hand to Xiang Jiuqi: "Eat."

Xiang Jiuqi is actually a little afraid of suspicious roads. Although suspicious roads somehow make her feel very kind, she is still secretly afraid of suspicious roads in her heart, and always feels that he is quite fierce.

... In general, Lu Sui believed in her heart that she was definitely not someone who could cook such delicate delicacies.

"Try this." Xiang Yang took a ball for her: "This is very delicious."

Lu Yi didn't speak, but looked at Xiang Jiuqi with an expectant smile.

Xiang Jiuqi ate the ball in one gulp, then raised her head in shock.

very delicious!

Her eyes wandered between Lu Yi and the plate of meatballs a few times, and finally she nodded and silently accepted that her "sister-in-law" is a big boss who cooks delicious food.

Lu Yi couldn't hold back his complacency, and when Xiang Jiuqi stretched his chopsticks towards the plate of meatballs, he kept poking Xiang Yang with his elbow, and whispered to him, "Let me just say it?"

Xiang Yang rolled his eyes with a smile, but honestly picked up the chopsticks and reached for the balls.

Sure enough, Lu Yi looked at another plate of grilled eggplant with sauce and thought.

The tastes of these two are really similar.

They don't like vegetables.

Lu Yi sighed, and swapped one of the two plates of meatballs with grilled eggplant: "You two, come to me for meatballs after you finish the dishes."

Then he received a pitiful look from two pairs of pale eyes.

Can't stand it, who can stand it?

Lu Yi looked at Xiang Yang and blinked sadly at him, sighed deeply, then avoided his eyes, and pointed to the plate of grilled eggplants irresistibly: "Eat vegetables."

Xiang Yang pursed his lips, looked at Xiang Jiuqi, and winked at her.

Xiang Jiuqi was taken aback, looked at Lu Yi uncertainly, and cleared his throat: "Brother Lu Yi?"

Xiang Yang nodded, and also looked at Lu Yi: "Brother Lu Yi?"

Lu Yi frowned and sighed: "Okay, okay, each of you will eat two eggplants first."

"Brother Lu Yi—"

have to.

Who can stand it?

"One," Lu Yi looked at the two people who were also pouted, "This is the least."

Xiang Yang and Xiang Jiuqi looked at each other, shrugged and accepted, and at the same time picked up the chopsticks and reached for the eggplant.

Xiang Jiuqi never thought that she could have a safe meal by someone's side, never thought that she would not be restrained in front of anyone, and never thought that she could laugh and play with her family.

family.

Xiang Jiuqi paused for a moment, then looked up at the smiling Xiangyang and Lu Yi, her nose suddenly sore, but she was very happy in her heart.

Family, she repeated the word in her heart, and slowly laughed: "Brother!"

Xiang Yang looked back at her: "What's wrong?"

Xiang Jiuqi shook her head with silly joy: "It's okay."

I just want to call out, like calling "Dad" and "Mom".

Because she wanted a response, just like she couldn't get it from her parents.

The sunshine sneaking in from behind the curtains, the fragrant food, and the hearty laughter.

Happy home.

Sister Jiuqi also has a home!
