Zuo Mei gradually regained awareness and couldnât help but to feel surprise: she was still alive!
She personally saw the car fall off the high cliff and could actually survive. So lucky!
/
This surprise made her suddenly sit up and open her eyes.
Beside the bed there were two boys and a girl. The older boy seemed to be around twelve and the other children couldnât be more than eight or nine years old.
The three of them wore old, tattered clothes. The girlâs attire was so old, that the pattern couldnât be made out.
âDid you guys⌠⌠save me?â Zuo Mei asked. The boys had long hair that was tied into a high bun. She thought this was a secluded place where traditions were still kept and passed down, therefore she wasnât that surprised.
âSister!â She saw the little girl go âWaaaâ and cry onto her body. The girl continued in a sobbing tone, âSister, donât die, donât die!â
Sister?
Nearly thirty years old, Zou Mei couldnât help feeling her mood lift up. Internally she thought: this little girl can really flatter! At this age to be actually called 'sisterââŚ
Hearing her cry that pitifully, Zou Mei couldnât help but to reach out and hug her. She gently pat the kid.
The little girlâs small body went slightly stiff. And then she hugged Mei stronger and snuggled tighter to her body.
âFang Qing, quickly let go of sister. She canât breathe.â
The bigger of the boys quickly reached out to pull the little girl called Fang Qing away.
Excitement could be heard clearly in his voice.
Fang Qing, being pulled away, let out a sob like a discontent kitten, but no longer stuck to Zou
Mei and obediently stood aside. She sniffed and looked at Zou Mei with her watery, beautiful eyes that were filled with attachment.
Zou Mei let out a big sigh and smiled gratefully at the bigger boy thinking: the biggest one is very mature!
âWhere is this? You⌠What are you guys called?â Zou Mei smiled as she asked the older boy.
Hearing this, his eyes suddenly opened wide, looking at Zou Mei in shock. The four words, âhow is this possibleâ were written on his face.
Zou Meiâs smile turned slightly stiff on her face. She couldnât help the feeling that something was weird.
âSISTER!â She didnât get a chance to ask, as the little girl let out an earthshaking, mournful cry startling her.
âSister! You canât recognize us? You donât want us? WaaâŚwaaâŚâŚâ the little girl clung to her body again and burst into tears.
âDonât cry, donât cry! Sister wouldnât abandon us, definitely wouldnât!â the little boy sniffed. He looked like he was about to cry, but bit his lips to stifle it. He glanced at Zou Mei like he was wronged and tugged at Fang Qingâs sleeve.
That appearance was extremely cute! He looked like he couldnât bear to look at Zou Mei, as if she did something heartless.
âSister,â when the bigger boy regained his composure, he pulled the little girl away and let the little boy comfort his baby sister. He looked at Zou Mei with sadness in his eyes. âSister, donât be like this. If that Yang family wants to break off the engagement, then let them! They just bully us since we got no dad or mum. Not marrying into that kind of family is good! Sister, I will take care of you, so donât be depressed. Alright?â
