Ye Sang waved the transparent umbrella in her arms and tilted her head to the side, âWhat about brodda then?â
It was raining outside.
The little boy glanced at her, displaying no expressions on his delicate face,
âIâll wait here.â
Meaning: come back and return it to me.
He didnât plan to use the umbrella anyway; having one or not was the same to him.
The Shen family wasnât a soft-hearted one.
Same as that man.
The little thing pondered for a while but still couldnât rest at ease. She pulled his sleeve and urged earnestly, âBrodda, donât go running around.â
âSangsang will be back very soon.â
The little boy fixed his dark eyes on her, eventually agreeing in a soft voice.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yanâan didnât want to talk to this silly little girl at first.
But he realized that if he ignored her, the girl would nag him forever.
Finally, Ye Sang left whilst looking back at every step.
The way that she looked felt like they were parting from death or something.

Yanâan watched the little girl running into the curtains of rain clumsily in silence for a while.
He blinked and for the first time in his life, he understood what people meant when they felt jealous.
He wondered, whoâs the brother this little girl had to give up on everything to go look for?
But as he thought about it, one thing was for certain; someone who could be with the little girl definitely wouldnât be as dark as him.
The boy sneered and hid all the bitterness in his eyes.
He thought he was going crazy.
He was jealous of a stranger because of a little girl.
Shen Yanâan looked down at the lollipop in his hands. He unwrapped it and put it in his mouth, and the sweetness of strawberries immediately burst on his tongue.
The boy picked up his bag from the floor and walked into the curtains of rain.
So...
This is what it tasted like. Candies that all children liked.

The little thing went around in circles in the sports field downstairs with her thoughts wandering as she stressed about returning the umbrella back to Yanâan.
She was naturally born without a sense of direction.
She had the puppy to show her the way around before, but dogs werenât allowed in the school and she couldnât find her way out from the huge sports field after going around for a long time.
The little thing panicked as she circled around it.
She clenched the umbrella helplessly. She was standing in the rain with a transparent umbrella over her head and she was short, her confused look made her look like...
Ahem. A mushroom.
Ye Sang looked around her and tried to find someone to help her find the way.
âTsk, what kind of bloody weather is this?â
âWe didnât get to have a sports class and now we are drench, how unfortunate.â
â...â A boy and a girlâs voice came from a short distance from Ye Sang.
The little thingâs cat eyes lit up and just as she was going to run towards him, she heard their voices again in the rain.
âWhen the teacher told me to pack up the sports equipment, he told Huo Chenyu to go with me.â
âAnd guess what happened?â The boy lowered his voice and laughed mysteriously, making the other one curious.
âWhat happened?â She quickly asked.
The boy sneered, âI locked him inside the equipment room. Itâs so late, how about we let him spend the night there?â
As he spoke, he waved the key in hand, sounding extremely pleased with himself.
Ye Sang clenched the umbrella tightly. When she heard âI locked him inside the equipment roomâ, the strand of hair on top of her head immediately shot up in fury.
