Chapter 427 The Crying Liu Xiaorui
“Yezi, what are you doing?”
Yezi buried her face in Xiao Bing’s arms, and her voice was trembling slightly. She snorted, “I am trying to smell if there is another woman’s scent on your body.”
Xiao Bing held Yezi tightly. In fact, he did not want to let go. Of course, he knew that Yezi was not suspicious. She was just worried about him and was afraid that something would happen to him.
Both Yezi and Xiao Bing were both nervous. Although he clearly knew that everything had passed and he had come back safely, Xiao Bing always felt very distressed, when he saw that Yezi was a little unhappy. When he saw Yezi happy, he could not help being happy. When he saw Yezi crying, he could not help wanting to cry too.
In this world, Yezi might be the only one who could make Xiao Bing cry, laugh, and feel sorry, and feel nervous.
Xiao Bing felt pity for Su Xiaoxiao, felt sorry for Liu Kexin, and was moved by Red Rose, but he loved Yezi.
“All right. Don’t be like this. Your Brother Xiao will be heart-broken to see you like this.” Xiao Bing said softly.
“Hum, who would want you to be heart-broken? It is as if I was worried about you.” Yezi got out of Xiao Bing’s arms, and her eyes were a little wet, but she said with a smirk, “Tell me, what you got this time? Which beauty did you hook up with?”
Xiao Bing smiled guiltily and said, “No, don’t talk nonsense…”
“What a joke. Should I tell you about Red Rose? If I did, you would strangle me. Let’s talk about it when I can’t hide it.”
Yezi was just joking. She did not really mean to question Xiao Bing. She took Xiao Bing’s arm and said, “When you were away, I was not the only one who missed you. Everyone missed you.”
Xiao Bing looked at everyone and his eyes fell on Su Xiaoxiao. Their eyes met. Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes were a little moist, but her tone was very calm. “It’s good that you’re back safely.”
Xiao Bing sighed in his heart. Su Xiaoxiao was always using her calm and cold appearance to hide her emotions. Xiao Bing really hoped that Su Xiaoxiao would let go, so that she did not always have to hide some things deep within her heart. How painful it must be.
In fact, Xiao Bing also wanted to settle the problem between Su Xiaoxiao and himself. Xiao Bing even thought that if Su Xiaoxiao could have a relationship with Lil Bei, it would be good. Lil Bei would be retired sooner or later, as long as Su Xiaoxiao was willing to wait. Xiao Bing would feel somewhat uncomfortable in his heart, since a man’s possessive desire was strong. After all, it was not a good thing to push away the woman he liked. But that was indeed the most rational choice. Xiao Bing believed that Lil Bei would definitely treat Su Xiaoxiao well.
But it seemed that although Su Xiaoxiao had a good impression of Lil Bei, she just regarded him as a big brother who gave her a sense of security.
Love was not something that could be dealt with at will. It seemed that he had better continue to wait.
Xiao Bing smiled and said, “Well, why are you all standing here with me? Let’s go in and talk. I’ve just left for about a month. Oh, by the way, Xiaoxiao, are you going on holiday?”
“Yes.” Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’ve been busy with the business in the store recently.”
Xiao Bing smiled and said, “Well, it’s not easy to have a holiday, so don’t be so busy always. If you have nothing to do, you can go out and look around. You will have a good time. Oh, by the way, where is Little Huarui?”
Liu Xiaorui had lost all her relatives when she was only six years old. She was alone and lived with Xiao Bing and Yezi. Yezi was taking care of her mainly. Now Xiao Bing had recognized her as his sworn sister and regarded her as his blood sister. She also regarded Xiao Bing as her blood brother and Yezi as her blood sister-in-law.
Yezi said, “She heard that you were coming back today, and she was chatting with me last night. She probably did not sleep well at night and suffered for that during the day. I persuaded her to take a rest in her room.”
Xiao Bing felt a little sorry for this little girl. He sighed and said, “I’ll go and have a look.”
Li Chunlan said, “The food is ready. I’ll go and arrange the food.”
Su Xiaoxiao said in a hurry, “Mom, I’ll help you.”
Everyone headed for the dining room. Xiao Bing patted Yezi’s back and said with a smile, “You can go too. I’ll go take a look at Little Huarui.”
“That’s great!”
Xiao Bing walked to the door of Liu Xiaorui’s room, quietly turned the doorknob, and crept into the room.
Her room was pink, and the sheets and pillows on the bed were also a warm pink color. Liu Xiaorui was curled up under the quilt with her eyes closed. There was a sweet smile on her face.
Xiao Bing quietly walked over and squatted beside Liu Xiaorui’s bed. Looking at Liu Xiaorui’s lovely smile, Xiao Bing’s face also revealed a smile. It seemed that this lovely little girl had gradually emerged from the shadows of the past. At that time, Liu Xiaorui personally witnessed how her mother died. That kind of blow was probably impossible to forget in her lifetime. But the wound in her heart could be healed slowly. It needed the help and care from her family members, so that she would not think about those things for a while.
Xiao Bing gently kissed Liu Xiaorui on the face and then quietly stood up. When he was about to go out, he suddenly saw some books and pens on the table. Xiao Bing heard that the child had performed very well in kindergarten, when he was talking with Yezi on the phone. After Liu Xiaorui gradually emerged from her grief, Yezi had already begun to take her to kindergarten. After all, she would soon go to primary school. Before that, Xiao Bing had let her attend kindergarten first, in order to adapt to the big environment in advance.
There were some workbooks for practicing calligraphy on Liu Xiaorui’s desk. Her handwriting was very neat and beautiful, and there was a big piece of white paper beside the books. The paper was covered with sketches. On the left and right sides were a man and a woman. The man was tall, and his face was very sharp. The woman’s figure was exquisite and beautiful, with a beautiful smile. A little girl was standing between the two of them.
Xiao Bing stared at the drawing for a while, and his heart was moved. He could not help smiling warmly. Although the painting was a little simple and it was not perfect, it was obviously drawn with her heart. The people on the paper should be him, Yezi, and Little Huarui. This little girl…
Xiao Bing was about to leave quietly when he suddenly heard a child’s voice filled with surprise coming from the bed, “Brother, you’re back?”
“Yes.” Xiao Bing turned around and walked to Liu Xiaorui’s bedside. He looked at Liu Xiaorui and said with a smile, “I was going to let you sleep a little longer. Did I wake you up?”
“No.” Liu Xiaorui said cheekily and was about to get off the bed. Xiao Bing rushed over and said seriously, “Lie down. You did not sleep last night, did you? Why did you not to sleep well at night? Do you know how old you are? You are so young. It’s time for you to grow up. You…”
Liu Xiaorui jumped out of bed crying, and threw herself into Xiao Bing’s arms, before Xiao Bing finished talking. She was too young, and she could only reach Xiao Bing’s waist. She just held Xiao Bing’s thigh and stuck her face on Xiao Bing’s lower abdomen. She cried and burst into tears, crying bitterly as if she had been greatly wronged.
Xiao Bing was slightly stunned. Then he bent down and took Liu Xiaorui into his arms. Liu Xiaorui laid her head on Xiao Bing’s shoulder and kept crying.
Xiao Bing asked, “Little Huarui, tell me, did someone bully you? I’ll beat him up for you!”
Since Liu Xiaorui’s parents were gone, Xiao Bing had adopted her. Since then, Liu Xiaorui had always regarded Xiao Bing and Yezi as her only relatives in the world. Xiao Bing also had no living relatives in the world, and he also treated and cared for Liu Xiaorui like his sister. Naturally, he would not allow Liu Xiaorui to be bullied.
Liu Xiaorui shook her head and sobbed, “I thought you don’t want me…”
Xiao Bing finally knew why Liu Xiaorui was crying. He could not help, but smile bitterly and said, “Little Huarui, who told you that I don’t want you anymore? I went out to work.”
“I… Boohoo… My mother is gone… I can’t live without you, brother… If you were gone, who will want Little Huarui?”
Liu Xiaorui cried loudly. Xiao Bing’s eyes stung a little. She had already regarded him as the only support and the last relative in the world. Xiao Bing felt that there was one more obstacle, but it was also a happy one. His eyes were red, because his parents abandoned him and left him at the door of the orphanage, leaving him to survive on his own. But there was still his family in the world. He still had Little Huarui with him. Little Huarui was still here. Xiao Bing wanted to bring her up and take care of her for the rest of his life as a brother, until she got married.
Liu Xiaorui kept crying. Xiao Bing kissed Liu Xiaorui on the face and said with a smile, “All right, you will look ugly if you cry again. Don’t think too much when you have nothing to do. Why don’t I want you? What’s more, why won’t I come back? This is my home.”
“I… I’m always dreaming. I dreamt of my parents. In my dream, I could not find them anymore. Then I was looking for you, but I woke up from the dream because I was so scared that I could not find you. I was so afraid that you did not want me anymore. Little Huarui… Little Huarui will be very obedient, okay…”
Xiao Bing gently kissed Liu Xiaorui’s cheeks and wiped away her tears. His eyes stung and there were tears in his eyes. He sniffed, took a deep breath, and said with a smile, “Little Huarui, I promise that I will accompany you. I will never abandon you. You are my good sister. You are also my only relative in this world. Do you understand?”
Xiao Bing’s voice trembled and his heart was firm. For this little girl, for Yezi, he must live well. Only if he lived well could he be with them and hold up the world for them!
