He began to tell me about his childhood, how he fought with the Wolf King, how he was bitten by wolves, how he was beaten by people, and how he used the only stone in his hand as a weapon. He spoke lightly of it, but I believed every word. I had been skeptical of what he said before, but now I believed him. He had suffered so much.
My heart twisted in pain, and tears fell heavily. I threw myself into his arms, taking the initiative to hug him for the first time, crying loudly. "Lu Zhenhuan, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." "It was my fault for leaving you behind; I was wrong, I'm sorry..." "Can you forgive me?"
I cried until my heart felt torn apart, and eventually, exhausted from crying, I fell asleep. I had a dream about my childhood. I dreamed of my brother and Lu Zhenhuan. At that time, Lu Zhenhuan was still a little boy, small and soft like White Rabbit Creamy Candy. We were kidnapped by human traffickers and caught while trying to escape, tied up in a truck.
I was very scared and kept crying. My brother comforted me, sang songs to me, and even gave me candy. Later, someone came; my brother shielded me with his small body to protect me from the blows. He said, "Don't cry, sister; brother will protect you." Eventually, we were rescued.
I forgot about my brother.
I forgot the brother who sheltered me from the storm and gave me candy.
I cried out, "Brother!"
Lu Zhenhuan held me in his arms, his tone gentle, "I'm here."
I looked at him, my eyes blurred with tears, "Are you really my brother?"
He paused for a moment and shook his head, "No."
"If you're not my brother, then where is he?"
"He died."
Lu Zhenhuan's identity was revealed, and I felt shocked and disappointed.
I thought he was my brother, but he was actually an imposter.
Thinking of my brother made me feel downcast,
and Lu Zhenhuan rarely bothered me, giving me a bit of personal space, though not much.
He cooked in the kitchen and soon brought out plates of delicious dishes.
I looked at the food, my mind drifting to my brother.
My brother is dead; what about Lu Zhenhuan?
Does he know about my brother?
Or is my brother's death somehow related to him?
I didn't dare to ask and could only investigate on my own.
As I searched for answers, I tried to probe him, but he was tight-lipped and revealed nothing.
I quietly conducted my investigation but found no leads.
Then Mom called, a video call.
Lu Zhenhuan and I sat together, and she looked at us with satisfaction.
"Your brother is home; you need to be sensible and not cling to him all the time."
I said, "......"
I nodded obediently, "Got it."
Mom went off to get busy, and I hung up the phone.
Lu Zhenhuan was beside me, looking at me with a half-smile.
"A sensible little sister."
I pouted, "I'm not your sister."
"I know, and I don't consider you my sister either."
His tone was meaningful, and thinking about what had happened these past few days made me blush.
Lu Zhenhuan stopped teasing me and told me to eat properly.
After I finished eating, I went to sleep. While Lu Zhenhuan was away, I secretly looked at that diary.
The first few pages contained old newspaper clippings and missing person notices.
Just as I was about to flip further, a familiar voice came from behind me,
"Want to see your brother's secrets?"
I jumped in surprise and turned around to see Lu Zhenhuan.
He stood behind me, looking a bit pale, his expression calm, making it hard to tell if he was happy or angry.
I pressed my lips together, "I..."
He looked down at me, "Don't be nervous; I'm just asking."
"That person who abducted us has come to City Y."
I was taken aback for a moment, "Who?"
"Boss Black."
I realized he was talking about the leader of that criminal gang.
