Chapter 456 - Older Brother, Smile

Yin Shuiling followed Yin Muchen with her beloved Hello Kitty doll in her arms. The hair on the doll was so soft. She absolutely loved to touch it with her fair little hand.

After a long walk, the two of them came upon a large lawn in the park. Yin Muchen sat down. He leaned back and lay down on the lawn. He looked at the sky lazily with his arms behind his head.

Yin Shuiling saw her older brother lying on the lawn. She touched the grass with her little hand. Ah, it was so prickly. It was not as soft as a mowed lawn at her villa.

And she saw a lot of people walking on the lawn. Would it be dirty?

Even though she thought so, Yin Shuiling still lay down beside Yin Muchen. If her older brother could lie on it, she could too.

“Older Brother...” The girl called him tenderly as her soft and fragrant little body moved toward him. An enlarged Hello Kitty appeared in front of his eyes.

When the Hello Kitty doll was taken away, the girl’s delicate little face that looked as if it had been carved from tender jade appeared. “Older Brother, what are you looking at? At the blue sky, the white clouds and the birds?”

The sunlight was a bit dazzling, so Yin Muchen half-squinted his narrow eyes. Half of the girl’s body was lying on his chest now, and the dazzling sunlight was blocked by her small head. The distance between the two was only a few millimeters. He looked at the girl from a close distance. The girl’s skin was as good and fair as milk, and it was crystal clear.

“Mmm.” He answered by humming.

He wasn’t really looking at the blue sky, white clouds and birds, because he did not have that leisure. He did not know what he was looking at, and she wouldn’t understand even if he told her.

What can she understand?

“Older Brother, shouldn’t you be happy to see the birds in the blue sky and white clouds? Why are you not happy at all?”

Does she know what it means to be unhappy?

Yin Muchen looked at her quietly. “I am not unhappy,” he said half bored and half perfunctorily.

“Older Brother is lying. You are clearly unhappy. How about this: Older brother, I’ll dance for you. Shall I amuse you?”

Yin Muchen did not answer, but Yin Shuiling scrambled up from his body. She put down her small bag and doll, twisted her small arms and buttocks around, and danced to two little tigers.

Two tigers, two tigers

Run so fast, run so fast

One has no earsn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

One has no tail

So strange! So strange!

The girl’s voice was childish and sweet, and her slim figure was extremely soft when dancing. His eyes turned away to avoid looking at the childish thing, but she jumped wherever he looked.

Finally, she threw herself into his arms. She smiled brightly and asked him, “Older Brother, did I dance well?”

He turned his face and looked at the big tree in the distance. “Yes, it was good.”

The big tree changed into her little face. She blinked her big eyes and went close to his face. The little fingers of her left hand and right hand came to his mouth. “If Older Brother thinks it’s good, then smile.”

She pushed his mouth into a smiling crescent.

He couldn’t avoid her little face no matter what. Yin Muchen had no choice but to look at her. She had sweat a little. That little bit of her pink face was like a rose that had been steamed. Glittering sweat adorned her face. Her eyes were shining brightly, like the stars blinking at him in the sky.

Yin Muchen felt as if a feather had brushed across his heart, ticklish and soft.

This kind of feeling could not be placed. It might be because he had seen a rich socialite like her doing all she could just to make him happy, or perhaps in the darkest and most confusing stage of his life, he had met a little tail, or perhaps it was just a liking for simple and beautiful things.

She was really simple and beautiful.

Yin Muchen slowly drew up his lips and smiled. Earnestly, he said, “Yes, you dance very well. I’m very happy now.”

“Really? Great.” Yin Shuiling was proud and happy.

Then she put her little hand over her little belly. “Older Brother, I’m hungry. It’s noon now. We should eat.”

Yin Muchen raised his eyebrows and felt a little helpless. He stuffed the remaining $140 from his trouser pocket into her little hand and pointed not far away. “There’s a KFC there. Go buy it yourself.”

“Yes, Older Brother, you wait for me here.” Yin Shuiling ran away with the money.

15 minutes later, Yin Shuiling came back with a bag in her hand.

Her older brother was sleeping with his eyes closed. Yin Shuiling squatted beside him. She took out all the delicacies in the bag and placed them on the lawn.

Her little fair and tender hand went to push her older brother’s chest. “Older Brother, time to eat.”

Yin Muchen opened his eyes and glanced sideways. A teriyaki roasted drumstick rice box, egg drop and vegetable soup, two red bean pies, and ice cream.

It was quite simple.

“Older brother, this is the change. Here you are.” She put the tightly held coins in his trousers pocket.

Yin Muchen felt that it was strange. To tell the truth, when he gave her money, he had been worried that it wasn’t enough for her. She was a rich socialite. She had no concepts about money and led a delicate and luxurious life. He hadn’t expected her to order such a simple lunch.

“Don’t you still have money? Why don’t you spend it all?” he asked her.

Yin Shuiling took the ice cream in her hand and licked it with her little pink tongue. “It’s enough for me to have just ice cream and a red bean pie. Both the rice and soup are for older brother. Eat up, Older Brother,” she said sweetly.

Yin Shuiling really had no concept of money. Her parents would always swipe their cards to buy anything she liked when they went shopping. So when she saw the Hello Kitty doll just now, she wanted it.

But just now, when her older brother had given her money to buy KFC, she saw that her older brother’s pockets were empty and he had neither card or money. She thought that maybe her Hello Kitty doll had been too expensive and that she could not spend all her older brother’s money.

She hadn’t eaten this ice cream cone that had only cost a few dollars. Besides Haagen-Dazs, she had also tasted a sundae.

Actually, she didn’t really care. If she had money, she would spend it. If she had no money, she would spend it more carefully. This ice cream cone was quite delicious as well.

Of course, she wouldn’t tell her older brother that.

But it doesn’t mean that Yin Muchen hadn’t understood her thinking if she didn’t tell him. The 18-year-old boy’s thoughts were delicate and sensitive. He sat up and looked at the girl eating the ice cream cone. She was eating it delicately. She licked a little cream with her pink tongue as her long and full eyelashes drooped down beautifully and contentedly. She was born a little princess.

Being with him would only cause her grievances.

He pushed the rice over. “I’m not hungry; you eat it.”

“No, I ordered this rice for Older Brother. There are drumsticks in it. Mother said that boys should eat more meat and girls should eat fruits and vegetables. I don’t like meat, but older brother should eat it,” Yin Shuiling said.

Yin Muchen was quiet for a few seconds, then picked up the rice.

Instead of eating, he scooped up a small mouthful of gravy rice with a small spoon and brought it to her mouth. “Won’t you be hungry if you don’t eat? You eat first, and I’ll eat later.”

“Ok.” Yin Shuiling nodded obediently and ate from the small spoon he was feeding her with. “Older Brother, there’s ketchup in the bag. I want to eat it.”

Yin Muchen held the rice in one hand and rummaged through the bag with the other. There were really several packages of ketchup in the bag. He asked, “You didn’t buy French fries but they gave you ketchup?”

“Yes, I asked for it from that big brother. He gave me several packets.”

Yin Muchen was expressionless. He opened the ketchup and squeezed it onto the rice. He fed her spoonful by spoonful.

Yin Shuiling stopped eating after several mouthfuls. She had a small appetite. “Older Brother, you eat it.” She continued to eat the cone with her head down.

Yin Muchen did not speak. He looked down and ate most of the rice quietly and gracefully.

They had been sun tanning on the lawn until the afternoon, then Yin Muchen got up and left. Yin Shuiling quickly chased after him.

They came to a private inn and Yin Muchen got a room.

The middle-aged boss behind the counter looked at Yin Shuiling with bright eyes. He touched his chin and laughed. “Boy, bringing such a little girl to stay in the same room? Take it easy. Don’t cause me any trouble.”

Yin Shuiling saw that this uncle was not a good man. She hid behind Yin Muchen, her fair hands gripping onto his trousers as she asked, “Older Brother, when are we going home?”

Yin Muchen rolled his ink-black eyes at the owner and took the room card. He held Yin Shuiling’s little hand and walked forward.

When he reached the corner, Yin Muchen released her and squatted down. “I’m going to sleep here tonight. You’re almost done playing. Go home.”

“No.” Yin Shuiling went up and held Yin Muchen’s neck with two small hands. “Older Brother, why are you sleeping here? Let’s go home together.”

Yin Muchen took her little hand off himself and looked serious. “This is not where you should stay, nor am I your older brother. Don’t follow me; go home.”

After that, Yin Muchen got up and left.

“Older Brother, Older Brother, don’t leave me behind. I want to be with you!” Yin Shuiling followed him closely. She would not go home without her older brother. She would follow him.

This girl was really clingy. Yin Muchen couldn’t shake her off. He opened the door and looked back, only to see the little girl behind him looking ahead with a stunned look.

In front of him, there was a man with a big stomach and a very young girl in his arms. The environment was dirty. The two people hadn’t entered the room. They were pressed against the wall.

Yin Shuiling did not know what the two people were doing. She was about to look carefully when her eyes were covered by a hand and she was brought into the room.

Yin Shuiling looked around the room. It looked old and shabby and smelled bad. “Older Brother, are we really going to sleep here tonight?”

“It’s not we, it’s me. What’s your parents’ phone number? I’ll call them.”

Yin Shuiling shook her head. “I don’t know. Older Brother, if you want to sleep here, I’ll sleep with you.”

Yin Muchen had no choice. “You can do whatever you want.” He went into the bathroom.

He came out a few minutes late. He had taken a bath. His hair was wet and he had not changed his clothes. He was still wearing the white shirt and jeans from this morning, but after washing away the dust of the day, he looked very tall and handsome covered in cold droplets.

He took out a blanket and a thin quilt from the cabinet, spread it out under the bed, lay down, covered himself with the blankets, and went to sleep.

Only when Yin Shuiling saw that her brother was really sleeping, did she realized that she was going to sleep here tonight. The light in the room was dim, and the windows seemed to be broken. It was frightening, but the most uncomfortable thing was that she was sticky. She had sweat at noon.

She had to take a bath before going to bed. The fragrance of the bath would make her fall asleep.

She jumped out of bed and walked lightly to the bathroom.

As soon as Yin Muchen closed his eyes, he heard a scream coming from the bathroom.
