[Pretender] Branch Road

In order to avoid the embarrassment of her elder brother the next morning, Diane made breakfast before he woke up, and then went out with two pieces of bread in her mouth.Although it is too early for school at this point, it is not even dawn.Diane was sitting on a bench by the street eating breakfast by the light, looking a little miserable.She was thinking about apologizing to Ming Lou after school or something?After all, she has a bit of an impulsive tone.Emma, ​​what's wrong with her, why does she lose control of her emotions because of this kind of thing?She rested her chin on her hands and thought about life.

Ruby is also miserable. I agreed to pick you up to school the next day!He foolishly waited downstairs for more than an hour before Diane met Minglou who went out to take out the trash in the morning, only to realize that she had already gone out.At this time, Diane had already arrived at school and chatted with Anna about gossip.Anna tried her best to bring the topic to the boy Ruby from yesterday, but Diane just stared at her and asked where she could get a part-time job.Anna rolled her eyes and finally gave up.So the two made an appointment after school, and Anna would take her to the shop where she worked for an interview.Anna is saving money, because Diane said that as long as she buys a round-trip air ticket, she can take her back to play.Diane actually prefers being a pastry chef to being a waiter in a cafe, but it's a pity that this cafe doesn't hire pastry chefs.

Afterwards, Diane can be said to leave early and return late, because she has no one to cook dinner since she worked in the cafe at night, and she can't let Ming Lou wait until she gets home at nine o'clock in the evening before eating.So now she wakes up early every morning to finish Ming Lou's whole day's meal before going to school, and finishes yesterday's homework in the classroom by the way.Poor Ruby waits downstairs in Diane every day, but every day is not available.After school, Diane was in a hurry to go to work and run fast. He waited until the school gates were closed.

Then one day, Diane's working hours were delayed a bit, and she rushed home in a hurry.Although He Minglou was still in the Cold War period, the previous agreement still had to be abided by.As a result, as soon as she arrived at the door of the house, she saw a shadow of a person squatting on the stairs. Diane immediately thought that it was Mrs. Bernard or a thief?She walked over cautiously, and when she got closer, she realized that it was neither a thief nor Mrs. Bernard.

"Ruby? Why are you here at this hour?" Diane asked in surprise, her first reaction was to check the time, it was almost 09:30.

"You liar!" Ruby stood up when he saw Diane, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting.Ruby's face was flushed red, and his eyes felt like they were about to burst into flames. "You promised to wait for me the next day! I've been waiting for you for a week! I come downstairs to your house in the morning, and I can't find you at the school gate after school!" Ruby is about 1.8 meters five, Diane only 1.6 meters.He stood up abruptly and enveloped Diane in an instant.

It can be said that Diane's heart was broken at that time, and she really forgot about it.I didn't expect that Ruby would wait so long, and then he was going to beat himself up?Diane was even ready to scream at the top of her lungs.Then the furious Ruby suddenly sniffed and... grinned and cried...?It's been too long to see everything...

"If you don't like me, you can tell me, don't hide from me. I have been waiting for you for a long time, thinking every day 'I must see you today!' But I can't see you every day..."

Diane understood the first few sentences, but she didn't understand a word of what Ruby said while sobbing.All in all, he was complaining... Diane was so shocked, let alone what a boy was crying... He hugged Diane while crying.Seeing him crying like this, Diane couldn't push him away... he could only pat him on the back like comforting a child, "Don't cry, don't cry, it's my fault, it's my fault."

Emma is so tired...

In the end, it was almost ten o'clock when Diane got home, and just now, she solemnly refused to drop the rupee.As a result, the child cried even more, saying that it was love at first sight, and he didn't give him a chance.Diane couldn't laugh or cry, and couldn't let him continue to cry like this, and then he could only tell him that he didn't feel it now, and could only be friends. Ruby cried and said that he could only take it slowly.Diane had a headache, thinking why this person is so childish!Mingming is about the same size as Minglou, how mature Minglou is!

But speaking of Minglou, when Di'an returned home, he found that the light in the living room hadn't been turned off, and when he looked again, Minglou was sitting in the living room, not knowing what book he was reading.

"It's late." Ming Lou looked up at Di An and said.

"Well...today ended late." Diane was a little embarrassed, and looked at the restaurant again, and Minglou hadn't eaten the dinner he made in the morning. "Brother, haven't you eaten yet?"

"have you eaten?"

Diane shook her head, "Not yet."

"Then let's eat together." After speaking, Ming Lou closed the book and stood up and said, "It's a bit cold, I'll go warm it up. I can't eat so much by myself."

Di'an watched Minglou go to heat up the meal.If she wanted to apologize, she didn't know why the acorn root stuck in her throat like a fishbone, so she just stood in the living room in a daze, until the smell of food wafted from the kitchen before she came back to get the dishes and chopsticks.

"Brother...I said something so offensive before...Aren't you angry?"

"What did you call me?"

"Brother...?" Diane looked blank.

"That's right, since it's the eldest brother, there's no reason to be angry with your younger siblings." Ming Lou sandwiched a piece of chicken wing for Di An, "I don't care if you are Wan Qiu or Di An, in my eyes, the first Wan Qiu Diane is the one who came after Qiu. You can only say some things in my face. According to what you said, since you replaced Wan Qiu, then you are my younger sister, Minglou. We can’t treat you as a family member. It’s changed. As for your identity as Diane, let’s keep it a secret between us. I will restrain you from having a boyfriend because I stand in the position of a big brother, not to interfere with you, just worried that you will be hurt. That’s all. That's all."

Diane's eyes were a little red after hearing this, and at that moment she finally knew why she lost control of her emotions.Minglou is much more mature than boys of this age group, and Diane is used to treating him as an adult rather than a big brother, so the emotion she feels is that Diane's affection for grown men is a desire for monopoly , possibly the likes of the legend.But Minglou only regards her as a relative.

"I don't have a boyfriend, I don't like Ruby, I just treat him as an ordinary friend." When Diane said this with a dry throat, tears slipped out of his eyes.Damn it, why does she have such emotions towards her eldest brother? She has no ability to compete with Wang Manchun!There is no possibility of winning at all!Diane wiped away her tears and stuffed a big mouthful of rice into her mouth, that's all, it's good to be a family member, so let's do it first!

The author has something to say:

Minglou, you will regret what you said sooner or later...
