Lin Zhuo slowly exhaled, turning to greet the approaching police officer, raising a finger to her lips in a gesture for silence.
"Come here, Little Treasure!" Tang Yuan's father used to call her that when he was alive. After his passing, Tang Zhi worried that her sister would miss their father, so she continued to call her Little Treasure.
Tang Yuan stiffened her neck and took a step forward, but then hesitated and pulled back.
Didn’t Little Treasure love being held by her sister the most? Tears streamed down Tang Zhi's smiling face as she clenched her fists, her nails digging painfully into her palms. Yet, the pain only served to keep her awake; it could not replace the ache in her heart.
"Yan Kongyue!" Wei He knelt on the ground, crawling to Yan Kongyue's feet. She wasn’t asking for anything; it was as if all her strength had been drained away.
"Xiao He, tell me," Yan Kongyue said, crouching down to help Wei He sit on the ground and channeling some spiritual energy into her.
"Help them!" After spending a few days with the Lin family and observing their attitude towards Yan Kongyue, she could see that this girl, younger than herself, was talented. Moreover, she had Gui Jiang Jun standing beside her.
"Yes, I will. Don’t worry!"
"Sister," Tang Yuan's voice was hoarse and trembling, tinged with a hint of grievance.
Hearing this made Tang Zhi clutch her chest, nearly bursting into tears again.
"Be good, come here! I heard your teacher say you ranked first in the entire grade again! I brought you a gift!" Tang Zhi pulled out a sunflower hair tie from her pocket.
Finally, Tang Yuan took that step forward.
"Come on, let me do your hair!" Tang Zhi also got up, her tear-streaked face breaking into a smile as she waved at her sister.
Tang Yuan took two steps forward but then stopped, turning her head and hunching her shoulders as if afraid.
"General Song, fall back!"
"Yes!" The sound of hooves and clinking armor faded into the distance.
Tang Zhi stumbled toward her only family member. She stopped in front of Tang Yuan, waiting for her sister to take that final step.
The distant police officers silently watched this scene unfold. Everyone has feelings; they too have siblings and felt a deep ache in their hearts at this sight.
Finally, Tang Yuan clearly saw her sister. With her head lowered, she slowly leaned into that familiar embrace.
Tang Yuan's spirit was solidified by resentment, yet Tang Zhi's hand trembled as she hesitated to touch that battered body.
"Good girl, Little Treasure is the most obedient!"
When Tang Yuan was alive, she was understanding and well-behaved—a darling in their parents' eyes and a model student in teachers' eyes.
When their father was alive, she loved to act cute and be spoiled. But now that he was gone, she had grown up overnight—becoming the only pillar of support for her sister.
"All the bad people are dead!" Tang Yuan managed to utter a few words with great difficulty.
Yes, Little Treasure, she avenged herself! Everyone thought she was seeking revenge for herself.
"Sister, don't be afraid!"
Tang Yuan's voice was low, but the night was quiet, and her words made everyone's hearts ache.
"Sister, don't be afraid!" Tang Zhi suddenly understood; her sister was worried that she might be scared and was trying to protect her.
When she was being tormented, Tang Yuan was terrified and cried continuously. Su Zihan, fearing that her cries would attract security, threatened her that if she dared to cry, she would have her sister brought in as well. To avoid involving her sister, Tang Yuan gritted her teeth and endured the humiliation, holding onto one belief: her sister must not be harmed.
But she still heard the devils say as they left: "I heard her sister is also beautiful; I wonder what it would be like."
She wanted to crawl back home to protect her sister, but the pain was too much; her whole body hurt. In the end, she could only crawl to the door of the storage room, with her unbruised eye fixed intently on the door at the end of the corridor.
The police who passed by all remembered that gaze, especially Lin Zhuo, who had closed her eyes for her.
Suddenly, a chill swept through the air, causing a shiver among the group of police officers. Only Yan Kongyue knew what had happened.
