(21) Since I chose to abandon the whole world for her at first, I shouldn't be afraid of disappointing her.

  Song Min was in her room, writing away with a burst of inspiration, when her mother suddenly pushed open the door and scared her half to death.

  "Mom, you scared me to death."

  "Pfft! What nonsense are you talking about, the year hasn't even passed yet? On New Year's Day, what are you saying about death?" Song Mama glared at Song Min and handed her the fruit platter, "Give this to your brother Wenyan."

  "Oh." Song Min put down his computer and reluctantly got out of bed.

  "You three young people chat together, don't stay alone in the room, understand?" Song's mother handed the fruit plate to Song Min, still muttering to herself.

  There are still three young people, Song Hao is just a little kid, Wen Yan is so old, only she is the only young person, okay! Although Song Min was scolding in her heart, she still responded with an "okay". In the situation where Song's mother would explode at any moment, "okay, okay, okay" and "alright, alright, alright" are the best ways to avoid a big fight.

  After all, it's the same world, and the same mom.

  Knocked on Song Hao's door, Song Min pushed the door open and went in.

  Song Hao was lying on the bed playing with his tablet, while Wen Yan sat at his desk flipping through a book.

  This quiet and warm atmosphere is surprisingly harmonious.

  Song Min put the fruit plate on the desk, "You two eat fruit."

  "Get me one." Song Hao ordered Song Min without even lifting his head.

  Song Min ignored Song Hao, took an apple and gave it to Wen Yan. You little brat, your sister still hasn't forgotten the attitude you just showed her! Let her get an apple for you, haha, dream on!

  "Give it to me?" Wen Yan's eyes, filled with a hint of amusement, looked at Song Min, his mouth corners slightly raised.

  "Hmm." Song Min looked at those bright and clear eyes, his face slightly flushed again.

  "Thank you." Wen Yan reached out and took an apple, his hand was smooth and fair-skinned, with slender fingers.

  "Song Min, I am your brother." Song Hao looked at Song Min and Wen Yan with a complex expression.

  "Self-reliance, warm clothes and sufficient food." Song Min smiled.

  "I'm not eating anymore!" Song Hao continued playing games with a stubborn attitude.

  Eliminate eliminate joy, all day just knowing how to play eliminate joy! Not even afraid of being eliminated themselves!

  "Hand me the tablet." Song Min walked over to the bedside and stretched out his hand towards Song Hao.

  "I won't!" Song Hao shifted and continued playing in a different direction.

  Song Min stretched out his hand to grab it, "Give it to me."

  "Song Min!" Song Hao tightly hugged the tablet into his arms, "This is mine!"

  "Pffft! Who did Grandpa buy this for?"

  "Even if it was yours, now it's mine! Don't you have a new one?!!"

  Looking at Song Hao's confident appearance, Song Min was furious and quickly grabbed his ear, "And who else?"

  "Ahhhhh, it hurts!" Song Hao grasped Song Min's hand, trying to alleviate the pain, and handed her the tablet with his other hand, "Yours, isn't yours enough?"

  Song Min took over the tablet and immediately let go of his hand, retreating a few steps back. She wanted to keep a safe distance from Song Hao in case he retaliated.

  "It's killing me!" Song Hao rubbed his ears with a grimace, "Song Min, you're too vicious!"

  "Haven't you heard of 'the most venomous thing is a woman's heart'?" Song Min continued smiling.

  "Brother, look at her, no wonder she doesn't have a boyfriend, so violent which man dares to chase!" Song Hao complained to Wen Yan.

  Wen Yan was eating an apple with gusto, his bright eyes curved into a smile, but he didn't say anything profound.

  Song Minbai Song Hao gave him a glance, "You should be grateful that there isn't another person helping me bully you."

  Gu Lin will call and actively ask Song Min out, which is something that Song Min could never have imagined.

  Sitting in McDonald's, Song Min gazed sideways at the colorful passersby outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

  "Song Min." Gu Lin slowly opened his mouth, "I still remember that in junior high school we were the best of friends."

  Song Min smiled, "Yes, at that time no one thought of what would happen later."

  "Actually An Ning she..."

  "Gu Lin, if it's for Lin Anning, then please don't say anything." Song Min took a deep breath and suppressed the annoyance in his heart, "Apologies and reconciliations are not for you to mention."

  "You're not unaware of her personality, she cares about you a lot."

  Song Min sneered, does it matter? Does it matter to the point where she thinks that all the people who knew her before can't be too close to her? Does it matter to the point where she thinks she will shamelessly steal the man she likes? Does it matter to the point where other girls just need to stir up trouble a few times and then break off their friendship with her?

  "Gu Lin, I had almost forgotten about what happened before, why bring it up again?"

  "You really forgot?" Gu Lin stared straight at Song Min, his long eyes filled with disbelief.

  "Even if I won't forget, these words should be said by her, what does it have to do with you? Gu Lin, I can understand that you're good to her, and back then you were afraid she'd misunderstand and kept a distance from me, but can't you not be so reckless and poke at my sore spots?"

  "I'm sorry, I..."

  "You don't have to apologize, let her speak for herself."

  "She had no idea I was coming to see you."

  Song Min's eyes suddenly felt a surge of heat, and his vision became slightly blurry. He pursed his lips and shifted his gaze to the window outside. "You know, I've always envied Lin An Ning. Even if the whole world spoke ill of her, you were always by her side. Gu Lin, people can't be too greedy. Since you chose to abandon the entire world for her back then, you can't be afraid of disappointing her."

  Song Min fell silent, staring blankly at the Coke in front of her. What they had gained was destined to be lost, and they were all powerless.

  Song Min had been thinking about it all the way and sent a WeChat message to Yuan Siyu to report on today's situation before entering the community.

  Yuan Siyu saw the message and received a call immediately.

  "Gu Lin is enough! For Lin Anning, she would risk everything!!" Yuan Siyu's voice was very loud, and it was clear that she was furious.

  "You say he's been guarding Lin Anning for so many years without fame or fortune, what's the point? That kind of heartless girl might just be thinking of keeping him on hold while looking for someone better, after all, it's a backup plan!"

  "Oh my, I'm so frustrated! You said you met him for what reason, and now you're getting all worked up? What do you want me to say is good about you? I've been telling you to be more considerate, but you never listen. Now that you've been called out to see how deep someone else's feelings are, aren't you feeling frustrated?" Yuan Siyu's mouth was like a machine gun, talking non-stop, while Song Min didn't interrupt her, quietly listening to her rant, and surprisingly, his mood slowly improved.

  "Gu Lin is such an idiot! Song Ming... are you listening to me?"

  "Listening." Song Min switched hands with his phone and put it back to his ear, "Originally my mood was pretty bad, but after hearing your voice, I inexplicably felt better."

  Song Min finished speaking and the other end of the phone went silent.

  "Damn it, are you flirting with me?" Yuan Siyu finally blurted out a sentence after a while, "My god! Song Min, you're actually flirting with me! Hahaha..."

  Song Min seemed to be able to imagine the scene of Yuan Siyu covering her face and giggling, a chill suddenly ran down her back, she shook her head and hung up the phone, that picture was too beautiful and she really didn't dare to imagine it.

  Song Min quietly put her phone back in her pocket and turned into the supermarket. The words Gu Lin had said, those things that happened in high school, all replayed in her mind one by one, making her heart too flustered, she needed to eat an ice cream to calm down.

  When he got home, Song Hao had already removed the plaster and was lounging on the sofa watching TV after returning from the hospital.

  Song Min walked past him with an expressionless face.

  "Sister, what's wrong?" Song Hao turned his head to look at her.

  "It's nothing." Song Min shook his head and stuffed the remaining half of the popsicle into his mouth, "Eating too much popsicle will freeze your teeth."

  "I think you've frozen your IQ." Song Hao pinched half a popsicle and ate it with relish.

  Song Min suddenly regretted going forward to the front of the building without finding a small dog to lick an ice cream, she walked back to her room and threw herself onto the bed, burying herself in the quilt.

  Gu Lin's fondness for Lin An Ning, how could she not feel it? Is it just because she has a good relationship with Gu Lin that she is afraid of her taking him away?

  Song Min sighed and poked his head into the quilt again. Alas, don't try to guess a girl's thoughts, you'll never get it right anyway.

  As she thought about it more and more, her eyelids grew heavier. Just as Song Min was about to fall asleep, Song Hao suddenly opened the door without any warning, "Sis, what's for lunch?"

  Song Min, who was half asleep and half awake, was startled by the sudden voice and immediately woke up with a start. She sat up and said, "Wait for me to make it."

  Then took off her down jacket and casually put on a piece of clothing to cook for Song Hao.

  What happened today was too easy to distract people, and Song Min successfully cut his hand.

  Because of the New Year, Song Dad sharpened the knives at home exceptionally sharp, so the cut wounds were not shallow at all.

  Song Min hastily held up her hand, which was bleeding profusely, and stood by the sink, gasping for air as she asked Song Hao to get her a band-aid. That big wound really hurts!

  "You put your hand in your mouth, or it will keep bleeding." Song Hao held the band-aid, unsure of what to do.

  "No, I find it disgusting." Song Min's attitude was very firm and her stance was unwavering. She really found the taste of blood to be nauseating, fishy, and with a hint of rustiness.

  "Then you can't stop the bleeding." Song Hao looked at the wound on Song Min's left index finger, which was bleeding profusely, and he was so anxious that his nose was sweating, "Song Min, is this finger yours?!"

  After roaring, pinched Song Min's fingers and was about to put them in his own mouth.

  Song Min suddenly pulled her hand back and stuffed it into her own mouth, making you lick it more disgusting than she did herself.

  A pungent and sweet smell suddenly filled his mouth, Song Min felt nauseous and leaned against the sink to retch.

  Song Hao leaned against the kitchen counter and let out a deep sigh, rubbing his forehead. "It's clearly an idol drama plot, but you've managed to turn it into a family ethics drama. Your aura has instantly become low."

  Song Min was too busy vomiting to pay attention to him, after vomiting enough, she looked at her finger and saw that it was still bleeding, so she put it back in her mouth and sucked on it for a while. When the bleeding stopped, she stretched out her finger in front of Song Hao and asked him to put a band-aid on it, while she continued to retch over the sink.

  "But let you cook for me, you cut your hand off, you can't bear to see me some more." Song Hao pushed Song Min out of the kitchen, "I'd better do it myself, be well-fed and warmly clothed."

  Song Min felt sorry for Song Hao's leg which hadn't recovered yet, so he suggested, "Why don't we order takeout?"

  Song Hao looked at her with a glance, "Are you paying?"

  Song Min smiled twice, "Then I didn't say it, you do it."

  Song Hao rolled his eyes and stopped looking at Song Min.
