Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Chapter 195 Xiaolan's Heart Knot

Ten minutes later...

"Actually, I like Conan very much, but Conan seems to have someone he likes." Ayumi's words and tone were exactly the same as Mitsuhiko's before.

I feel like you two have discussed this.

Shiina Yuichi ran to the side and hid himself, looking like he was enjoying the show.

Ran Mao Li looked at Ayumi and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

Why is it my turn now?

"Who is the person Conan likes that you are talking about?" asked Ran Mouri with a blink.

"It's you." Ayumi said shockingly.

"Me?" Mao Lilan pointed at her nose in surprise.

"Yes!" Ayumi nodded and said seriously, "I think Conan is particularly concerned about Xiaolan, and every time he sees Xiaolan with other boys, Conan will be unhappy."

Shiina Yuichi, who was eavesdropping, raised his eyebrows and sighed in his heart, Ayumi was so perceptive that she grasped the truth directly.

A true detective! !

Ran Mouri felt strange, even though she often heard from Suzuki Sonoko and others that Shinichi liked her.

But this time, the person who said this was a seven-year-old girl.

This feeling is so amazing.

After Ayumi left, Mao Li Ran lay on the table tiredly.

Shiina Yuichi imitated someone else and said, "I have a seven-year-old love rival. Will Xiaolan be jealous?"

Mao Lilan rolled her eyes at Shiina Yuichi in annoyance, "Brother Yuichi, stop making fun of me."

"Shinichi, he..."

Do you like me? I don’t think I’ve ever heard him mention this once… How does he see himself?

But, I really like him very much!

Shinichi has been a naughty boy since he was a child. He always thinks he is an expert in reasoning, but whenever he encounters a critical moment, he can always show amazing courage.

Just like the protagonist in a novel.

Looking at Ran Mouri who suddenly seemed a little depressed, Yuichi Shiina quickly stood up and went to the ordering counter again to order two iced drinks.

When he returned to his seat, he gently pushed one of the cups next to Mao Lilan.

"The weather is hot, so you should drink more and be careful of heatstroke." Shiina Yuichi said with a smile.

"Thank you, Yuichi-kun." Mao Lilan took the drink with a smile and showed a hint of gratitude.

"You're still so polite to me."

Shiina Yuichi reached out his hand and gently stroked Mao Lilan's hair, saying gently: "Again, no matter what decision you make, I will always support you."

"That kid still doesn't appreciate it. I can use force to make him appreciate it." Shiina Yuichi raised his arms.

He struck a pose showing off his biceps.

Seeing Shiina Yuichi's funny actions, Mao Li Ran burst out laughing, and the depression in her heart disappeared a lot.

"Brother Yuichi, you are still so gentle." Mao Lilan held the cup of cold drink that was still emitting cold air in both hands, gently rubbed the wall of the cup, feeling the coolness on it.

"But, Yuichi-nii..." Mao Lilan's eyes remained on the drink in her hand, and there was a barely perceptible sadness in her tone, "After all, she and I are different."

"Who?" Shiina Yuichi couldn't help but ask back when he heard this.

Mao Lilan did not avoid his gaze. Instead, she bravely raised her head and looked into Shiina Yuichi's eyes with sincerity.

"I really, really want to have a brother like you."

"However, the sister in your mind should be Anxia, right..." When she said this, Mao Lilan's voice became a little lower.

"For so long, Brother Youyi has always taken care of me like a real brother. In my heart, you are as important as a family member."

"But, after all, I am not Anxia, and your gentleness..." She hesitated to speak.

Shiina Yuichi sighed helplessly, and his originally relaxed expression became serious, "So, you think I just treat you as a substitute for Anxia, right?"

Mao Lilan did not answer, but the loneliness in her eyes said it all.

"...I don't deny that you and Anxia are really alike."

A bitter feeling rose in Mao Lilan's heart. She had never thought of replacing Anxia's position in Shiina Yuichi's heart. Those were the memories and emotions they shared, which could not be taken away by anyone.

Mao Lilan knew very well that no one in this world could shake Anxia's position in Shiina Yuichi's heart.

Therefore, she thought that Shiina Yuichi's kindness to her was just an act of compensation.

At this moment she couldn't help but think of another person, Huibara Ai.

Maybe she is different.

Because Ran Mouri saw the necklace that Shiina Yuichi had worn before on Haibara Ai's neck.

only myself……

"But, Xiaolan, you and she are two different people."

Shiina Yuichi's next words made a look of surprise appear on Mao Li Ran's face.

She originally thought that she was just a shadow of Anxia in his eyes, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"There is indeed no one in this world who can replace Anxia." Shiina Yuichi paused for a moment and then said, "But, Xiaolan, you are also unique and no one can replace you."

"I took the initiative to choose you as my sister, so Xiaolan, don't look so sad. You are also a very important family member to me."

Yuichi Shiina looked at Ran Mouri gently, his eyes revealing sincere care and love.

When Mao Lilan listened to what Shiina Yuichi said, her eyes felt a little sore and her eye sockets turned slightly red.

She felt that Shiina Yuichi valued and cherished her.

But the next second, Shiina Yuichi's words made her hold back her tears.

"It's just that your taste in choosing men is not that good. I don't quite understand what's so good about Kudo Shinichi?"

When saying this, Mao Lilan seemed to see her old father.

However, after being enlightened by Shiina Yuichi, her mood improved a lot and the knot in her heart that had been there for a long time was untied.

Shiina Yuichi is her brother, and other than that, she knows nothing.

Quietly, Mao Lilan also made up her mind.

"In fact, Shinichi has many advantages..."

"for example?"
