C76 (1/2)
Next morning
Liu Yunqi slowly opened her eyes, what entered her eyes was a pair of big, watery eyes that curiously looked at him.
Liu Yunqi didn't react for a while as he rubbed his dizzy head and closed his eyes, ”Yue'er, how long have I slept for?”
”I heard you've been asleep all night.” A clear and sweet voice said somewhat shyly.
This voice made Liu Yunqi feel that it was a bit familiar, but also a bit unfamiliar.
”Yue Er?” Liu Yunqi could not help but open his eyes to look at the person by the bed, his eyes had a trace of doubt.
An eight to nine year old little girl was standing beside his bed, looking at Liu Yunqi timidly.
Liu Yunqi sat up in shock, and frowned slightly.
The girl had shoulder-length green hair, a pair of long and pointed ears that stood on either side of her head, and a pair of large, watery blue eyes. Other than the differences, this girl looked at least seventy to eighty percent similar to Yue Er.
Liu Yunqi's eyes wandered over the girl, and the girl became even more uneasy.
His fiery gaze made her lower her head shyly.
Noticing the girl's sharp ears, Liu Yunqi could not help but become more curious, extending his hands out and gently pinching it.
”Ya ~!”
The girl was shocked by Liu Yunqi, she immediately covered her ears with her hands and asked timidly: ”What are you doing?”
”If you are not Yue Er, then who are you?” What is this place? Why am I here? What about the people who came with me? ” Seeing the girl's reaction, Liu Yunqi confirmed his thoughts. The girl in front of him was not Yue Er.
”I... My name is Xue'er, elder sister Yue'er. This is the Fairy Forest, our home. As for your friend, she was probably called away by your mother. ” The girl said timidly.
”Sister? Since when did Yue Er have a sister? En ~ I don't think so. Although you all look a bit like each other, the characteristics on your bodies are different. Hmm, it should be with the same name, Elf Forest? This word sounds a little familiar. From what I see, you don't look like a human … What race are you? ” Liu Yunqi said.
”I... I am Elves. ” Xue'er said.
”Oh? Elves? ”Yes, it's very similar to what the book says.” Liu Yunqi got off the bed curiously, walked around her twice, and nodded.
”Then... ”That …” Being stared at by Liu Yunqi, Xue'er felt a little embarrassed and shyly stayed silent for a long time.
”Hmm? What's wrong? ”If you have something to say, say it. I won't do anything to you.” Seeing her so shy, Liu Yunqi curled his lips and said.
”That... Big Sister Yue'er said that you can't get out of bed due to your injuries. ” Xue'er hesitated for a long time before she finally spoke.
”It's fine, I recovered early. Speaking of which, who is your elder sister Yue Er? Why did you save me? I remember that I don't seem to know the people from your Elves, right? ” Hearing that familiar name once again, Liu Yunqi couldn't help but ask.
”Sister Yue Er is sister Yue Er ah ~ Didn't she come back with you guys?” Have you forgotten? ” Xue Er said with some doubt.
”What nonsense is this? We clearly only have three people, when did we get another Elves? and it even has the same name as Yue'er?! ” Liu Yunqi was at a loss.
”That's right! I heard it was three people … Sister Yue'er, you and a big sister. Isn't that a total of three people?” Xue'er curiously asked as she blinked her big eyes.
”What?” You said that Yue Er is your big sister?! ” After being stunned for a while, Liu Yunqi finally reacted, his face was filled with disbelief.
”Yes, what's wrong? What are you surprised about? ” Xue'er tilted her head in confusion.
”No, no, no, wait, wait. Yue'er is a human and you are a Elves, how can you be sisters? Oh ~ I know! Did Yue Er send you to tease me? Isn't that right? ”
”I didn't tease you ~ Big Sister Yue'er, she's not a human ~ She has the same Elves as me ~” Xue'er's face was filled with confusion.
”Yeah, yeah, I know, I know.” Liu Yunqi had a look of ”I understand” on his face, which was very cooperative. He patted Xue'er on the shoulder, and then, even mysteriously whispered into her ear, ”Don't worry, I won't tell Yue'er.”
Liu Yunqi suddenly leaned so close to Xue'er, that Xue'er was a little stunned and could not react in time.
”It's really easy for you to be shy …”
Curling his lips, Liu Yunqi started to look at the furnishings in the room.
It was a simple house made of countless tree branches. There was only a frame, no door, and not even a window. There was only an open windowsill.
In the room, there was only a table formed from countless tree branches and two chairs, there was the single bed that he was lying on, on top of it was a huge leaf, that was what Liu Yunqi had covered himself with as a quilt.
Seeing everything in the room, Liu Yunqi frowned, and muttered in his heart: ”Is Elves really that poor? Why can't you even afford to buy a bed and a blanket? ”
However, he did not say those words out loud. After all, they were on someone else's territory, so he could not be too rude, right?
