1780. Chapter 1780 Extra Story: Beasts without Borders [28]
Xiao Jin did not rush out to see his brother as usual, but stayed silently in his room, practicing meditation and pretending not to know about his return.
In the evening, footsteps could be heard outside, stepping lightly on the fallen leaves on the ground, making a soft sound.
There was only one person in the world who had that kind of footsteps, and she could tell it without looking.
That was the sound that stepped on my heart.
Xiao Lan has been sick for a long time, so his steps are a little lighter than ordinary people, but he has a steady personality, so every step he takes is steady, and he does not have the frivolous feeling of a patient.
Xiao Jin raised her head quietly, waiting for the footsteps to fall in front of her door. There was silence for a while, and then there was a gentle knock on the door.
Xiao Jin's heart suddenly rose and hung in her throat, but she smiled in an instant, opened the door with a flick of her fingers, raised a bright smile, and looked at the person at the door in surprise: "Brother!
"
It was as if I didn't know he would come before.
Xiao Lan stood at the door, against the light, his face blurred, but he looked at her with a pair of slightly shining eyes for a long time.
"Come in!" Xiao Jin stood up, stepped forward like a child, dragged his hand, and pulled him in, "Why didn't you tell me when you came back? I can pick you up!"
"I heard that you have made great progress in your cultivation. I don't want to disturb you."
Xiao Lan's face looked paler than before, without any blood at all, and he was in a daze. Xiao Jin asked him to sit down, poured him a cup of hot tea, and blew on him slowly.
Let it cool a bit and then pass it to him.
When he raised his hand to pick it up, he accidentally knocked the tea cup over on the table.
"Be careful!" Xiao Jin said, and the tea he poured immediately turned into ice without splashing on him.
Xiao Lan glanced at her, his eyes becoming more and more sad, "Jin'er..."
"Huh?" Xiao Jin raised his head and looked at him with a smile, "What does brother want to say? By the way, did you bring me a gift when you came back this time? Take it out and let me see it! It's the lotus seeds from Huanxue Lake.
Cake?"
She likes to eat the lotus seed cake from Huanxue Lake, which is ice cold. Every time she goes to the Western Region, Xiao Lan will have someone prepare it, and when he comes back, he will bring it to her.
But this time, when she asked, Xiao Lan instinctively shook his head. However, seeing disappointment in Xiao Jin's bright eyes, he couldn't help but nod and said, "Take it."
"Great!" Xiao Jin was full of expectations, "Hurry up and take it out!"
Xiao Lan's fingers rubbed the ring for a long time. In that action, it seemed that he was hesitating about something, but he couldn't say it out loud.
Xiao Jin also watched his movements silently, without saying a word. On the surface, he looked innocent and cute, but in his heart, there was a bright mirror.
Who is she? She is Xiao Jin. There is no room for lies or concealment under her eyes. She knows what Xiao Lan will bring. Her reminder. Is his current hesitation due to his feelings for her?
If so, then don’t take it out, brother, don’t take it out…
The prayer in his heart slowly sounded, but he didn't hear it.
Xiao Lan flicked the ring gently, and a paper bag appeared in his pale palm.
At that moment, Xiao Jin's heart suddenly sank, but there was still a bright smile on his face, "Brother, you are so good!"
