All of a sudden, the chirping of cicadas outside the window seemed to have been muted, and the whole room became extremely quiet.
The sunlight passed through the window and pulled a thin cloud to block itself.
The shadows crouching on the wall slowly separated, and Xu Shiyue stood up calmly.
Compared to Xu Shiyue's calmness, Lu Shizhen was surrounded by overwhelming embarrassment.
Lu Shizhen looked at Lu Shize, who was upside down in her sight, and turned his body out of her sight as he slowly sat up.
Then she suddenly remembered that she had returned to her original appearance. She should not be Lu Shize's sister now. Without time to feel disappointed, she quickly changed the topic and said, "Mr. Lu."
When Lu Shize heard what Lu Shizhen said, he frowned: "Didn't you call me brother just now?"
"Ah?" Lu Shizhen couldn't figure out what Lu Shize meant and was stunned for a moment.
Then Lu Shize asked again: "Don't you recognize it?"
The latest and most complete novels are all on Ziyun Reading Network: ZIYUNS.COM
"How could that be!" Lu Shizhen shook his head subconsciously and explained in confusion: "I just... that I am not actually..."
Lu Shizhen certainly knew what kind of person Lu Shize was, and hurriedly wanted to clarify.
But before she could organize her explanation, Lu Shize interrupted her: "So this is why you didn't come to see me last time you came back?"
This voice was even deeper than before, yet easier to understand.
—This person seemed to be simply upset about not seeing him.
Lu Shizhen was particularly surprised by Lu Shize's attitude.
The main god tore his sister's soul into pieces, broke it into pieces and put it into his own body. He loved his sister so much that in the original text he even helped her to do evil. He was not angry with him, did not distance himself from him, and did not take revenge on him.
And, why...
Why does Lu Shize have such a calm yet slightly jealous attitude
Lu Shize half-lowered his eyes, taking in the obvious surprise on Lu Shizhen's face.
He walked up to Lu Shizhen and told her slowly, "After the accident more than ten years ago, the previous god split my sister's body into two, leaving half in her body and giving the other half to you so that you could survive."
"So you still think that you are the same as you were when you were six years old and have nothing to do with me?" Lu Shize asked, looking up at Lu Shizhen who was standing opposite him.
He still looked like the unhurried boss, but amidst that sense of oppression, he also had a bit of the gentleness of an older brother.
Of course Lu Shizhen understood what Lu Shize said, but she didn't expect Lu Shize to accept it.
She looked into Lu Shize's eyes, and a huge wave of emotions suddenly rose in her heart.
Bloodline is a magical thing.
In a narrow sense, it simply refers to the blood flowing in the body, but in a broad sense it encompasses a lot.
Just like when Lu Shizhen subconsciously called Lu Shize "Brother" and then called him "Mr. Lu" from a distance, the reluctance and sadness that surged in her heart.
Lu Shizhen knew clearly in her heart that she was Lu Shizhen, and also Lu Shize’s sister.
She knew that the now barely noticeable burn scar on her thigh was caused by the fire when she was six years old while trying to save Xiao En.
There were many things that she indeed did not remember, but they were indelibly engraved in her actions.
Just like the fire five years ago, she subconsciously pushed the dessert shop owner out.
"Zhenzhen, in this world, you also have your home and your family." Lu Shize looked at the little girl standing in front of him who looked different from his sister, and said to her more bluntly, "You are my sister."
Hearing this, Lu Shizhen's eyes instantly turned red.
The word "home" has always been of great significance to her, and the most unforgettable memory of "home" in her life was five years ago, when Cheng Meiyan brought Lu Shien and Lu Shize to Lin City to support her and Xu Shiyue.
That day, the five of them took a family photo together.
—She has always only been able to appreciate this kind of photos. Lu Xi is always the only one standing between his father and mother.
Lu Shizhen is not the kind of person who likes to complain and feel jealous, and he has always concealed these emotions very well.
She didn't want to compare the two sides, so she quickly hid the thought, suppressed her urge to cry, and asked Lu Shize, "Brother, are you and mom okay lately?"
Lu Shize nodded slightly and said, "I'm fine, and my mother is fine too, you don't have to worry. And my mother told me that she had noticed it a long time ago. But you..."
At this point, Lu Shize paused, and looked at Lu Shizhen's legs on the bed with calm and steady eyes: "I will arrange a full body check for you, especially a leg check. My mother... and Xu Shiyue will not let anything happen to you."
Although he didn't want to mention it, Lu Shize still quickly said Xu Shiyue's name at the end.
He would not reject anyone who treated Lu Shizhen well with all his heart, but the scene he saw when he opened the door just now did make him unhappy.
And it was after he said this that Lu Shizhen's eyes filled with even more tears.
Every time she received Lu Shize or Cheng Meiyan's caring and thoughtful concern, she would feel warm but also a little guilty.
And this time, Lu Shize's concern for her was completely directed at her, not at the shell of the past.
She no longer needs to feel guilty about the care her family has given her, and no longer needs to be so cautious and tread carefully around this family bond.
The sunlight fell on Lu Shizhen's fair face, clearly reflecting the traces of tears falling.
When Lu Shize saw Lu Shizhen crying, his usually calm face suddenly showed panic and helplessness: "Zhenzhen, why are you crying?"
"Is it because I mentioned your leg? I won't mention it anymore, okay..."
The more Lu Shize cared about her, the more tears flowed from Lu Shizhen's eyes.
This feeling of being at home is like gulping down a glass of strong liquor. It feels fine at first, but the aftereffects are very strong.
The surge was wrapped in warmth, violently yet tenderly rushing in Lu Shizhen's eyes. Only then did she understand what it felt like to cry with joy, and she couldn't stop.
Finally, Xu Shiyue took Lu Shizhen's shoulders, wiped away her tears, and whispered in her ear: "Okay, Teacher Sixteen, don't cry anymore. Mr. Lu is already at a loss."
Lu Shizhen uttered a puzzled "hmm", then sobbed and looked up at Lu Shize, whose sight was blurred by tears.
There was a look of astonishment on this man's face, and his standing posture seemed a little stiff. He had completely lost his usual solemn and murderous aura, and instead, he seemed to be in a timid and unharmonious manner and had the upper hand.
He suddenly looked up at Xu Shiyue and saw that Xu Shiyue was also looking at him gently, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
Lu Shize said that they are the same kind of people, so revenge is the same.
It was hard to say how many times Lu Shize had been defeated by Xu Shiyue again.
But the facts cannot be denied, especially in front of his Zhenzhen.
Lu Shize pursed his lips. He was not good at coaxing people. Seeing Lu Shizhen calm down in Xu Shiyue's arms, he had no choice but to hand her over to Xu Shiyue and said, "Zhenzhen is in your hands. I'll go arrange for the physical examination."
"Don't worry." Xu Shiyue nodded, and the smile on her face became even more intense in Lu Shize's sight.
Like a winner.
Lu Shize's face was even gloomier than when he came.
He just glanced at Xu Shiyue, then ignored her "friendly" smile to him and was about to leave as if he didn't see it.
He only took two steps towards the door and stopped in front of it.
He turned around as if he had thought of something, and hinted to Lu Shizhen: "Zhenzhen, you just woke up, you must take care of yourself."
Lu Shizhen paused for a moment.
Then, after realizing what Lu Shize was referring to, her tearful face suddenly turned red.
She swore that she would lock the door before doing anything in the future!
must!.
Lu Shizhen spent the entire afternoon in the hospital. Lu Shize arranged a series of detailed physical examinations for her and even performed a genetic test on her.
To be honest, Lu Shizhen didn't know whether he would bring some of his original diseases with him when he came to this world from that world.
The waiting time was a bit anxious, but fortunately the examination report showed that the results were good. She is in good health now, except that she is a little anemic.
The round moon was facing the moving car, hanging brightly in the upper right corner of the windshield.
The stars are like diamonds scattered on black cloth, twinkling in the night sky of the city that is about to fall asleep, facing the comfortable breeze of the summer night.
Xu Shiyue drove through the almost empty villa area. He looked up at the supplements piled up on the back seat in the rearview mirror, then glanced at Lu Shizhen who was frowning, and reminded her, "Teacher Sixteen, don't show such an expression. If Mr. Lu knew that you were unhappy with all the things he prepared for you, he would be sad."
Maybe this is the tacit understanding. Lu Shizhen immediately heard the sarcasm in Xu Shiyue's words.
She turned to look at Xu Shiyue, who seemed to enjoy watching the fun, and immediately asked, "I'm not the only one in my family who suffers from anemia. Your condition is much worse than mine, Miss Xu."
Xu Shiyue smiled when she heard this and said directly: "I don't mind eating with Teacher Sixteen."
Upon hearing this, Lu Shizhen immediately seemed to have thought of something and turned sideways.
His dark eyes were fixed on the delicate white face under the moonlight, and his strong smile contained a hidden ambiguity: "Then I can eat you directly."
Upon hearing this, Xu Shiyue turned around and gave Lu Shizhen the same smile, her slightly curved eyes showing a seductive charm, as if silently expressing her agreement.
Just at this time, Xu Shiyue's car drove into the yard.
Before Lu Shizhen could say anything, Yuanzi rushed over, circled outside the co-pilot window, and kept wagging its tail at Lu Shizhen.
Who can resist the enthusiasm of a dog
Lu Shizhen pushed the door open and got out of the car. She squatted down, took Yuanzi in her arms, and started petting the dog like crazy: "Yuanzi, do you miss your mom?"
"Woof!" Yuanzi called crisply and wagged his tail even harder.
It sniffed the scent of Lu Shizhen and responded to her questions very eagerly, almost pushing her to the ground.
Lu Shizhen tried hard to keep her balance, and also shook Yuanzi's ears more enthusiastically: "Oh my Yuanzi, your mother's love for you is not in vain."
As they interacted like this, Lu Shizhen subconsciously wanted to find Xu Shiyue's location.
But when she turned around, she noticed Aunt Sun wiping her tears silently with a handkerchief at the door.
—The butler, who is usually meticulous and serious, actually had tears in his eyes.
"Aunt Sun, why are you crying?" Lu Shizhen walked forward and tried to comfort Aunt Sun, but heard Aunt Sun say, "It's okay, Miss. I just feel a little afraid of the wind recently. I can't stand it when it blows."
Lu Shizhen immediately understood what Aunt Sun meant and said, "Then you should take good care of yourself."
Aunt Sun choked up and nodded, saying, "Now that the young lady is back, everything will be fine."
After that, Aunt Sun did not forget her duties as a housekeeper. She pushed open the door of the villa and said to Lu Shizhen with tears in her eyes, "Welcome home, Miss."
This is Lu Shizhen's second time here.
Although this time is shorter than the last time, which is five years, everything in the villa is the same as before, but nothing is the same as before.
I don’t know when Aunt Sun got the news, but in order to welcome Lu Shizhen back, the entire villa was kept clean.
It was already night, but the flowers in every vase in the room were still so beautiful and charming, with water droplets hanging on them.
They are all welcoming themselves in the best possible way.
This was also the first time in all these years that Lu Shizhen was treated so seriously and attentively.
Although she didn't want to do this, Lu Shizhen couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.
She couldn't believe it, and was even afraid that she was dreaming. It was not until she followed Xu Shiyue back to the room that she dared to say to her: "Shiyue, pinch me."
"Why should I pinch you?" Xu Shiyue smiled faintly, and the sound of the door being locked was intertwined with her calm voice.
The moonlight cast the shadow of the person in the room in front of the window, approaching inch by inch.
Suddenly, Lu Shizhen's waist was clamped from behind, and without any preparation, she was embraced by a thin and gentle arm.
"I have a better way to prove that you are not dreaming." Xu Shiyue's lips seemed to accidentally touch Lu Shizhen's earlobe, and her voice was gentler than her action. "Excuse me, Teacher Sixteen, would you like to enjoy your midnight snack now?"
