Chapter 430 The Mysterious Man in the Forest

Xiao Bing knocked on Yezi’s door, but no one opened the door. Fortunately, Xiao Bing had the key to the door with him. When he opened the door and entered, Yezi was taking a shower in the bathroom. There was the sound of running water in the bathroom.

Xiao Bing went to the wardrobe to find his pajamas. When he passed the bathroom door, he suddenly could not stand it anymore. He quietly cracked open the door and looked inside.

The bathroom was foggy, and ordinary people could not see clearly. However, this mist was nothing to Xiao Bing. Then he saw… Yezi was wrapped in a bath towel, squatting on the floor in the bathroom. There was only a door between them. She was smiling at him with a pair of sparkling and cheeky eyes. It turned out that when Xiao Bing opened the door and entered the room, she had already heard it. She deliberately squatted to see if he would peek at her. As a result, he was caught redhanded.

Not only did Xiao Bing not see anything, but he also went for wool and came home shorn. He was shocked and ran out hurriedly. Yezi then pushed open the bathroom door and watched Xiao Bing escape with his pajamas. She doubled over with laughter.

When Xiao Bing returned to Liu Xiaorui’s room, Liu Xiaorui breathed a sigh of relief. She then obediently waited until Xiao Bing had finished bathing, changed into pajamas, and came out of the bathroom. She forced herself to open her sleepy eyes and asked, “Brother, have you finished your bath?”

“Well, why don’t you go to bed?” Looking at Liu Xiaorui’s sleepy face, Xiao Bing could not help laughing. “If you are sleepy, go to sleep first. If I give you my promise, I will not break my promise.”

“Well, I believe in you. But if you’re not here, I can’t fall asleep. I can’t sleep well.”

Xiao Bing smiled and sighed in his heart. It seemed that Liu Xiaorui still needed a while to get rid of her nightmares completely.

Xiao Bing took off his shoes with a smile and got into bed. Meanwhile, he turned off the light and held Liu Xiaorui in his arms. He asked with love and concern, “Can you sleep now?”

“Well, I can sleep now…”

Xiao Bing gently patted Liu Xiaorui and sang a lullaby in a soft and gentle tone. It was hard to imagine that Xiao Bing could sing such a tender song. Xiao Bing still remembered it. During his childhood, he heard the teacher in the orphanage singing it while coaxing the children to sleep. Xiao Bing never needed any coaxing, but he remembered it.

Gradually, Liu Xiaorui fell asleep.

Gradually, Xiao Bing fell asleep.

The next morning, Xiao Bing woke up and saw Liu Xiaorui curled up in his arms, like a sleeping princess. He smiled with relief. Xiao Bing was glad to be able to give Liu Xiaorui some assurance. This was the duty of being a brother. Xiao Bing was delighted to be able to fulfill this responsibility, just like being a brother.

Usually, Xiao Bing would have risen already. But today, when he saw that Liu Xiaorui was finally able to sleep, he remained motionless like a mummy. Whether it was Yezi or this sworn sister, Xiao Bing loved both of them very much.

A man like Xiao Bing seemed to play the field when he was unrestrained. But once he became serious, no one could stop him from being nice to a person. He was nice to Yezi and Liu Xiaorui.

After lying in bed for about an hour, it was about six o’clock. Liu Xiaorui’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she began to open her eyes.

At the moment when Liu Xiaorui opened her eyes, her eyes sparkled with inexplicable joy. Xiao Bing asked with a smile, “You look so happy. Did you have delicious food in your dreams?”

“No.” Liu Xiaorui stuck out her tongue and said, “I’m not a little foodie.”

Xiao Bing smiled and said, “Why were you so happy?”

“I saw you when I opened my eyes, so I feel much more relieved. I slept well last night and did not have any nightmares.”

Xiao Bing smiled and asked, “That’s all? Then why don’t you sleep a little longer today? You don’t need to go to school anyway. Moreover, you don’t have to get up too early when you go to school. I heard that you have not been sleeping well these days. Get more sleep today. I’ll hold you.”

Liu Xiaorui stuck out her tongue and said, “Did I make your arm numb?”

Liu Xiaorui’s head was placed on Xiao Bing’s arm, and Xiao Bing’s other arm was holding Liu Xiaorui.

Xiao Bing smiled and said, “Of course not. Our little Huarui is small, so you’re not heavy. Try and get more sleep?”

Liu Xiaorui hesitated for a moment and said, “Then, I’ll sleep a little longer.”

“Okay, Good girl.”

Liu Xiaorui slept until eight o’clock. This time, she was really awake. Xiao Bing took her to the restaurant for breakfast, and the others had already finished eating. Yezi was kicking a shuttlecock with Maggie in the yard, while Su Xiaoxiao had already gone to the noodle house to help.

Seeing Xiao Bing and Liu Xiaorui coming out of the living room after their meal, Maggie put down the shuttlecock and said, “Let’s stop playing. Aren’t you going shopping today? I’ll go to the noodle house to help Xiaoxiao.”

Yezi laughed and said, “Don’t be impolite. Xiaoxiao is much older than you. You should call her Sister Xiaoxiao.”

Maggie snorted and said proudly, “I’m her Master. Although Sister Xiaoxiao is older than me, her seniority is lower than mine. All right. I’ll call her Sister Xiaoxiao.”

Gao Fei came out of nowhere and said in a flat tone, “I’ll go with you.”

“Okay, Brother Fei, let’s go together. Goodbye, Brother Bing. Humph, Brother Bing, you’re partial. You are not bringing me out to play.”

Xiao Bing said with a wry smile, “Then, why don’t you come with us?”

“I won’t go with you. Well, I’m just kidding with you. We’re leaving.”

She was so young, but Maggie had always been mischievous and elusive. If she grew up, many men would throw themselves at her feet, because of her quirky personality and angelic profile.

Seeing Maggie and Gao Fei leaving, Yezi smiled and said, “Maggie, if this little girl grows up, it will be amazing.”Update by L istnovel.com

Xiao Bing put his arm around Yezi’s waist and said with a smile, “Will she be more amazing than you?”

Yezi rolled her eyes at Xiao Bing in a charming way and said with a smile, “Stop jabbering. Little Huarui is still watching beside us.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Liu Xiaorui hurriedly said, “On TV, a husband has to hold his wife’s hand or put his arm around her waist while walking. That’s being a couple.”

Yezi giggled and said, “I was talking about Maggie just now. Our Little Huarui also knows a lot. Why is it that children now know so much?”

Liu Xiaorui said, “I saw it on TV. I’m not young. I know everything.”

Hearing Liu Xiaorui’s innocent words, Xiao Bing and Yezi both laughed.

Xiao Bing asked, “When are we going out?”

“Now.”

“Okay.” Xiao Bing agreed. He held Little Huarui on the left side and Yezi on the right side. They walked to the car. Xiao Bing let both of them sit at the back, then he sat in the driver’s seat and drove slowly toward the city.

Not far from the Xiao’s mansion, there seemed to be a figure moving about in the forest. His eyes were cold as he looked in the direction in which Xiao Bing’s car had gone. There was a cold light, followed by evil laughter, and even the sound of licking lips.

Xiao Bing was not aware of all this. He drove the car slowly, and Yezi was telling a story to Liu Xiaorui in the back seat. Although Liu Xiaorui was a rare mature and sensible girl, she was still a child. She was delighted to go out and play. She kept laughing because of Yezi’s joke. Xiao Bing smiled faintly. It seemed that the relationship between the little sister and her sister-in-law was good.

Xiao Bing drove the car, humming a song leisurely. Finally, he drove into the downtown area.

Liu Xiaorui asked, “Brother, how long will it take us to get to the amusement park?”

“Soon, by the way, I heard that Maggie and your sister-in-law brought you there recently. Do you still want to go?”

“Of course.” Liu Xiaorui said immediately, “You were not with me when we went to play!”

Xiao Bing laughed and said, “I love it when you say that. I love it. Okay, I’ll play with you for a day. Let’s have a good break.”

“Well, you also need to accompany my sister-in-law. She has been worried about you these days.”

Yezi glared at him and said, “Little Huarui, don’t talk nonsense. I don’t need to worry about this bad guy.”

“My brother is not a bad guy. What’s more, I can see that you were worried that my brother. Although I’m young and don’t know a lot of things, when I went out to play for a long time and returned home late, I could see my mother’s worried look, which was the same as yours in the past few days. When I saw that my mother was worried about me, I did not dare to go out for so long, and I did not dare to go too far with other kids.”

Liu Xiaorui’s voice lowered again as she spoke. Xiao Bing turned his head and happened to look into Yezi’s eyes. Both of them had some worry and heartache in their eyes. It seemed that it would not be only a matter of a day or two for Liu Xiaorui to get rid of the past completely. It still needed time for her to do that.

Xiao Bing’s heart was full of affection again because of Liu Xiaorui’s words. While driving, Xiao Bing said as if he was talking to himself, “Yezi, don’t worry. As long as you are with me, I will never let you worry about me. I will always live well because I want to be with you in the future.”

“Humph! I was never worried about you!”
