pick a peach essence

Xiao Qiong and Li Huan finally escaped.

But they didn't expect to meet Xiao Lan downstairs.

Xiao Lan opened her big eyes and looked at the two panicked people in front of her, feeling very sad suddenly.

"You, why are you here?"

The moment Xiao Qiong saw Xiao Lan, a bad premonition suddenly surged in her heart.

"elder brother……"

Xiao Lan just gave him a disappointed look, shook his head lightly, turned around and left without looking back.

"Wait, Xiaolan!"

Xiao Qiong suddenly felt that if Xiao Lan was allowed to leave today, then the estrangement between the two brothers and sisters would not disappear for the rest of their lives.

Xiao Qiong quickly caught up with Xiao Lan's back, and gradually disappeared before Li Huan's eyes.

At this time, Li Huan looked at the hospital building with a pale face, and suddenly met the eyes of a woman.

This, this is...

Li Huan was stunned for a moment, isn't this Tao Tao's mother?
At this time, Tao Tao's mother was standing in front of the hospital window, watching everything downstairs through the glass.

From a distance, I couldn't see the expression clearly, but Li Huan had an illusion, an illusion that the woman saw through everything about him.

Li Huan quickly turned his head and walked out of the hospital gate.

Although she failed this time, she still let Xiao Qiong keep the secret of herself and her mother well.

only……

Li Huan thought of Xiao Lan's immature face.

According to Xiao Qiong's character, he will definitely give up his most important thing for his only sister.

Li Huan returned home with a lot of worries, ready to think about the next plan.

From that day on, Xiao Lan, who witnessed the secret of the two, became Li Huan's biggest obstacle.

When Xiao Lan got home, she closed the door and blocked Xiao Qiong from the door.

"Xiao Lan, you open the door."

Looking at the tightly closed door, Xiao Qiong suddenly sighed.

He put his hand on the door panel several times, but he didn't dare to knock.

He was afraid of frightening his sister.

Xiao Lan has been timid since she was a child, and she always carefully pretended to be strong, just to keep her brother from worrying.

But in fact, it is brother Xiao Qiong who knows his sister best.

When I was young, my parents quarreled, and there was a loud bang bang in their room. At this time, Xiao Qiong always ran to her sister's room immediately.

At that time, the little Xiao Lan always stood on tiptoe trembling and opened the door that separated the siblings.

"elder brother!"

When Xiao Lan saw her brother's tall figure, she would immediately drop the doll in her hand and throw herself into her brother's arms.

At that time, the brothers and sisters who depended on each other never thought that something like today would happen.

"I'm sorry, Xiaolan..."

Xiao Qiong knew that Xiao Lan must have seen everything.

He never had any secrets in front of Xiao Lan before, but now...

Xiao Qiong didn't want to make excuses, because what he said now was useless.

"you go!"

Xiao Lan leaned against the door with her back, covered her face and slowly slid down the door and sat on the ground.

"I have nowhere to go but our home."

Xiao Qiong supported the door with both hands, as if drops of crystal clear liquid were dripping on the ground.

He didn't know if it was sweat or tears.

"You can go find your sister!"

really……

Xiao Qiong smiled helplessly.

"I hate her so much."

When Xiao Lan heard this sentence from her brother's mouth, she felt that it was inexplicably false.

"Since you hate her, why do you go to her?"

Xiao Lan's voice came muffled through his palm.

"I……"

Xiao Qiong ran out of words for a moment.

He turned around and imitated Xiao Lan and sat on the ground with his back against the door panel.

At this time, there was only a door between the two brothers and sisters.

There is a door to their house.

"I'm sorry, but..."

There are some things that Xiao Qiong doesn't want to tell her sister, because sometimes, the more you know, the more dangerous you will be.

"Don't apologize to me."

Xiao Lan's voice reached Xiao Qiong's ears directly through the door, but he couldn't hear his sister's emotions.

"You only keep things from me."

After hearing these words, Xiao Qiong hugged her head in pain.

"I don't know since when, you won't tell me anything."

Xiao Lan didn't intend to let Xiao Qiong go just like that, she pressed on every step, wanting to hear the truth from her brother.

"Xiao Lan, I want to protect you."

Xiao Qiong still insisted on his own ideas.

He wouldn't tell Xiao Lan these things, she was too young to be involved in this chaos.

"Look, you still don't trust me."

Xiao Lan curled up her mouth and smiled, and said the words that broke Xiao Qiong's heart.

"How can you say that?"

Xiao Qiong stood up from the ground all of a sudden, but accidentally pulled the previous wound.

"hiss……"

He couldn't hold back the sound of inhaling.

"you!"

After Xiao Lan heard her brother's inhalation, she quickly got up from the ground and opened the door in a panic.

She saw Xiao Qiong looking at her tenderly.

The two brothers have experienced such scenes countless times.

At that time, the two of them were on the windowsill of the house together, watching the people coming and going downstairs, waiting for their father.

But later, Xiao Qiong gave up waiting, and chose to experience the growth that he had to experience in this life early at a young age.

But Xiao Lan still guards the innocence that belongs to the age of the siblings.

From that day on, the little Xiao Lan stepped on a chair and climbed up the high windowsill by herself every day, waiting for her brother to come back from school.

Every time Xiao Qiong came back from school, she would look up at her sister who was sitting at the window and waving to her.

That was the first time he experienced the warmth of home.

So, the two poor children will accompany each other forever.

"Xiao Lan."

Xiao Qiong looked at her younger sister's eyes that were red from crying, and walked over to hold her tightly in her arms with distress.

The words of sorry are ringing in my ears, but I just can't say them.

He didn't dare to speak any more, while Xiao Lan didn't dare to listen any more.

Because the two brothers and sisters will never need this apology.

"Listen to me, okay?"

Xiao Qiong let go of her younger sister's thin body, and pulled her to sit on the sofa.

"You only have one chance."

Xiao Lan wrinkled her nose and looked at him fiercely.

Xiao Qiong smiled, stretched out her hand and gently wiped away the tears on her younger sister's face.

"This matter is indeed what I did wrong."

Xiao Qiong raised his head and leaned against the sofa, looking at the dim light hanging from the ceiling, he touched his chest, the heart that had been cold for a long time was still beating slightly.

Xiao Qiong told Xiao Lan everything that happened on the barren mountain before.

After hearing this, Xiao Lan stretched out her hand and held her brother's cold palm tightly.

"Are you blaming yourself for not stopping that girl?"

Xiao Lan looked at his tired brother and asked softly.

"Yes."

Xiao Qiong suddenly raised the corners of his mouth and laughed mockingly.

Xiao Lan knew that he was laughing at himself.

"It's okay brother, it's not your fault."

At that time, Xiao Lan actually didn't know whether she should blame her brother for this matter.

She knew that she and her brother could seem to grow up peacefully in such an environment, but in fact, the inside of her and her brother had gradually rotted.

"No, I did something wrong."

After Xiao Qiong heard her sister's comfort, she shook her head slightly.

"You know, from that moment on, I feel like I've changed, I can't even look at myself."

Xiao Qiong touched his chest again.

"Do you know Xiaolan, the moment Tao Tao rushed out, I hated my terrible self at that time."

Xiao Lan fell silent for a while.

She finds it really hard to be kind
"But Xiaolan, that girl changed me."

Xiao Qiong turned her head and stared closely at Xiao Lan's eyes.

"She is the most special girl I have ever seen. She is so kind, kind, and makes people feel distressed..."

When Xiao Qiong said this, the scene of Tao Tao blocking that knife for Jiang Jinchen once again appeared in his mind.

"I seem……"

When Xiao Qiong said this, he suddenly silenced.

Xiao Lan didn't care about what Xiao Qiong didn't reveal just now, she was just very confused now.

"But you..."

When Xiao Qiong heard Xiao Lan's hesitation to speak, she laughed, and then asked her sister the question she wanted to ask.

"You want to ask, since I like that girl so much, why do I do that to her?"

"Ah."

Xiao Lan looked into her brother's eyes and nodded seriously.

"Because... I don't want to lose her."

"you……"

After Xiao Lan heard these words, she suddenly froze.

brother what does this mean?
"Why, why Jiang Jinchen can be the one cured by her, but I myself can only be completely forgotten by her."

Xiao Lan looked at his brother who was expressionless at this moment in shock.

No, it's not like that.

Xiao Lan shook her head desperately, and tightly grasped Xiao Qiong's arm with both hands.

"No, you can't think like that!"

However, Xiao Qiong spoke to himself as if he didn't hear it.

"So, I want her to forget that bastard who was not grateful for saving her life!"

Xiao Lan looked at Xiao Qiong who was getting more and more strange, and burst into tears.

This is not the brother she was familiar with before.

Although the former elder brother was a seemingly indifferent person who didn't like to talk or meddle in other people's business, what he exuded from his bones was tenderness.

And this time.

"Do you know that you will harm that girl by doing this? What did she do wrong?"

Xiao Lan hugged her brother's cold body tightly, trying to wake him up, but it was still to no avail.

Xiao Qiong shook her head and said.

"I'm not just doing this for myself, but..."

Xiao Qiong said that he touched his sister's head here.

"And to fulfill my father's plan."

Xiao Lan was stunned when she heard it.

Father's plan?
It turned out that my brother concealed so many things from himself.

Xiao Lan looked at the brother who was unfamiliar to her and smiled gently at her, and uttered the words that made her suffer for the rest of her life.

"You will keep a secret for me."
