They...haven't seen each other for a long time.

Obi couldn't help sighing inwardly as he looked at Uncle Yu who was constantly asking for his warmth beside Yeying.

With a kind smile on his face, the old man leaned slightly and asked carefully, as if he was cherishing every ray of time.

And that Ye Li stood quietly by the side without saying a word, his eyes were fixed on Ye Ying, and he didn't move away for a moment.

only……

Obi looked up at the starry sky, sighed, and walked to Ye Ying.

"Well, I'm sorry to interrupt your chat..." he said, with a slight helplessness on his face, "but we have to go back."

He turned his head and said to Ye Ying half-jokingly.

"If you don't go back, the master probably has to call everyone to come to the forest with torches to find us~"

[If you are not there when you are supposed to be, someone will worry about you. 】

Chi had told him.

He still clearly remembered that night when he ran to help Troy find the young master who had run away from home, but both the master and the lady came to look for him.

"……it is good."

Yeying turned her head to look at Obi, and nodded hesitantly.

I left His Highness Qian without saying goodbye, and I really should go back as soon as possible.

She turned around, but stopped after taking a step.

Ye Li stood behind her, holding her sleeve tightly with one hand.

The boy's face was full of panic at this time, he heard Obi's words.

The moment Ye Ying turned his head, he quickly lowered his head, not wanting the other party to see his expression.

With clenched fists, he called out the previous address with difficulty, his voice hoarse, with a faint plea.

"Sister Ying..., please stay a little longer..."

Ye Ying looked at Ye Li, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

She seemed to have returned to the familiar mountain forest, where she, Ye Li and the master lived together.

She looked at Ye Li, and then at Uncle Yu beside him.These two people are her family.

Her breathing became slightly stagnant.

Obi sighed, pulled down the forehead guard, raised his head and smiled at Yeying.

"Well..., if you really want to stay, just stay, and I will talk to the master for you."

He smiled and added another sentence.

"However, remember to come back before dawn tomorrow."

Ye Ying looked at Obi in surprise, her eyes flashed and became much brighter, and she smiled gratefully at Obi.

"Ok!"

Obi's heart trembled, and he quickly turned his head away.

As if he didn't care, he took a few steps in the direction he came from, turned his back to Yeying and made a goodbye gesture, and then disappeared into the dense forest.

This guy……

He clutched his chest hard.

...Laughing is getting more and more lethal...

***

"...And then you came back like this?"

While eating, Qian looked at Obi with an incredulous look.

"Are you stupid?"

Obi choked.

He didn't want to either... But Ye Ying obviously wanted to stay there, could he still tie him back...

"According to what you say, that Ye Li should be a rival in love." Qian glanced at Obi, "You are so relieved that you let Ye Ying stay there all night."

Obi paused.

I didn't think much of it before, but now that I think about it, it seems to be true.

...That brat...shouldn't be a rival in love...

He thought tangledly, the food in his mouth lost its taste in an instant.

Qian continued to eat with his head down, talking casually.

"If he really likes Ye Ying so much, he probably won't be willing to stay just one night... He will probably try to persuade Ye Ying to leave with them."

"And one night is enough to do a lot of things, such as making some medicine for hands and feet. With the relationship between Ye Ying and them, there should be no precautions..."

Qian's voice stopped suddenly, and he looked at Obi.

Obi's hand holding the food froze in mid-air, and turned his head to look at him blankly.

Qian coughed in embarrassment.

"... Cough, that..., I'm joking, you don't have to be so nervous..."

Then, I saw Obi slowly stand up from his seat as if he was sleepwalking, and turned to the direction of the forest.

"...No...I'll get her back..."

"...Cold, calm down!" Qian hurriedly pulled him back.

***

"Sister Ying..."

When he arrived at the temporary residence, Ye Li looked at Ye Ying and had countless things to say in his heart, but he was stuck in his chest and didn't know what to say.

He hadn't seen each other for too long, his eyes fell on that familiar face, and he described it carefully.

Her expression was much softer than when she left, and she would show a slight smile from time to time, as if he had returned to the first time when he played around with his sister all day long.

He didn't say anything else in a daze, as if he could just look at each other quietly like this.

"How are you doing recently?" Instead, Yeying asked first.She raised her hand and stroked Ye Li's hair, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.

Ye Li has grown a lot taller than when she left, and his immature face is a little more calm and composed.

But in her eyes, it was still the younger brother who needed her care.

She knew that she had neglected the other party all these years, and her energy was focused on how to complete the task and survive, but for Ye Li, she lost a lot of irreplaceable things.

Her indifferent departure gave him a big blow.

"...Huh? Oh, I, I'm fine." Ye Li stammered.

"I joined the Killer Organization, and now I'm the head of a branch in a town, and I've also formed my own intelligence network..."

His voice suddenly faltered. This intelligence network was set up specifically for Ye Ying. If she knew about it, she would probably be angry...

He quickly changed the subject: "What about Sister Ying?"

"Well, I'm fine." Yeying replied, recalling the experience during this period, with a slight smile on his face.

It was her luck to meet Obi and the others, and she was glad that she joined them back then.

Ye Li looked at the other party's smile, although he didn't want to admit it, but the fact that Sister Ying was willing to meet him now explained a lot of problems.

She let go of the knot in her heart, the breath that used to be as cold as death is now surrounded by a touch of warmth.

He is not reconciled, why is it not him who made Sister Ying into the person she is now.

His voice became a little difficult, and he reluctantly asked the question in his heart.

"You, like that man named Obi just now?"

Yeying paused, a blush immediately appeared on his face, and there was a trace of nervousness and shyness in his eyes.

"En." She nodded slightly, hummed softly, then lowered her head and said nothing.

Ye Li felt his heart was broken, but he had never seen his sister Ying show such an expression.

"...What's so good about that guy...?...You, you..." He said hesitantly. As for you, he didn't know what to say, but he was full of resignation, as if the most important thing was taken away. same thing.

Ye Ying was stunned for a moment, she looked at Ye Li's expression, the young man was very serious, with a slight loss on his expression, from which she could see the deep attachment to herself.

She couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in her eyes.

"Ye Li," she said softly suddenly, "I, after leaving you, became a little discouraged and didn't know what to do."

Ye Li's expression changed slightly, but he remained silent.

He understands what Ye Ying said, as for being discouraged... this kind of statement is too gentle.

During those days, Sister Ying was like a dead person. After settling them down, she lost the last reason to survive desperately.

With no goal or anything she wanted, she wandered aimlessly in the world, constantly following tasks and killing, waiting for the arrival of a certain day of death.

Ye Ying's voice was very soft, she looked at her hands with calm eyes.

"I killed too many people, my hands were covered with blood, I stayed too deep in the dark world, and I was already stained black."

"And every time I see those laughing people in the sun, I think, I should never get to that side."

Her voice paused.

Looking at Kongchu with dark eyes became a little distant, as if recalling something.

Those deep purple eyes gradually brightened.

A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth again.

"Then, I met Obi."

"Even though he is also a member of the Dark Realm, he can live so freely and casually, as if he has no constraints at all."

"He knows life well, enjoys the things around him, can chat with anyone, and makes people feel very relaxed."

"As long as you look at him, you will feel that it turns out that living is such an interesting thing."

"Staying by his side made me feel that I can live freely."

She raised her head and looked at Ye Li.

"If the master adopted me and gave me everything in the past—"

"Then Obi made me think that maybe I can also look forward to the future... maybe~"

She smiled slightly, her dark purple eyes were as bright and soft as a starry sky.

Brightly made Ye Li unable to say a word of rebuttal.

He was depressed, very depressed.

Obviously, I am the one who cares about and loves Sister Ying the most, why did it become like this.

But so what if he was depressed, he took a deep breath helplessly, trying to dispel this bad mood.

"But you really scared me before..."

"Huh? What?" Ye Li was at a loss.

"You said 'fiancée' or something," he saw Sister Ying shook her head and said in a very disapproving tone, "I think about things at a young age."

Small... young age?

Ye Li opened his mouth wide and stared at Ye Ying dumbfounded.

"...Sister..." He almost spat out each word with difficulty: "I'm already 16 years old..."

Only one year younger than you...

"Do you still treat me like a child?"

sixteen……?Ye Ying was in a daze.

After a while, she murmured, "So I'm seventeen..."

When Ye Li heard this, his heart suddenly felt sour.

Sister Ying has already forgotten her own age, obviously only five years have passed.

He cleared up his mood and threw all the depression just now out of the sky.

Compared with Sister Ying, those are just floating clouds, no matter who she likes, it is enough to make her forget that gloomy time.

He stood up suddenly, walked in front of Yeying, bent down and hugged him gently.

"Sister Ying, father, he finally healed up about half a year after you left."

"Although his body has become very weak, there is no problem with his basic life. He went to Donghua Kingdom and studied medicine there."

"Next time I come to you, you can go and see him with me... He is very worried about you and says he misses you very much."

Yeying's eyes became brighter after hearing about the master's situation, she nodded and responded.

She has been worried about the matter of the master, but she dare not ask, she is afraid to ask the answer that makes her feel unacceptable, fortunately, the result is good.

As for leaving for a while... It should be fine to ask His Highness Qian to take a little leave, right?

Ye Li let go of his hand, then he lowered his head and stared at Ye Ying very seriously.

"Also,... I heard that you were seriously injured."

Um?Ye Ying blinked her eyes, oh, it seems that there is such a thing...

She subconsciously stroked her waist.

"Well...it's nothing, it's already healed, it's all scarred..."

The arrow wound that time was very deep. Although it healed quickly with the help of the pharmacists, it also left a scar.

She never cared about getting hurt before, but this time she cared a little bit, feeling a little unnatural when touching the wound.

Ye Li looked at her expression, moved his hand, but didn't extend it.

He is no longer the kid who can bandage Yeying's wound without any worries.

Since Sister Ying said it's ready, then let it be...

He pouted, stood up suddenly, turned and walked towards the door of the room.

"It's getting late, sister Ying, you should go to bed early too," he said, opened the door, turned around and added coolly, "You seem to have to go back before dawn?"

Ye Ying stared blankly at Ye Li who was leaving as soon as he said he was leaving, and he couldn't recover.

Ye Li reluctantly went out, closed the door for Ye Ying, and immediately saw the old man standing outside the door waiting.

"Uncle Yu, help me collect some medicine that can eliminate scars," he said sullenly, "For Sister Ying."

Yu Bo smiled gratifiedly and nodded.

"The young master can come out so quickly, it seems that he has really grown up."

The corner of Ye Li's mouth twitched, staring at Uncle Yu for a long time, speechless.

***

The next morning.

Obi stood at the entrance of the forest, looking at the direction of the depths of the forest, his face was calm, and he was burning with anxiety.

Until it was daylight, he finally saw a figure appear in his field of vision.

It is night shadow.

He breathed a sigh of relief slowly, and the anxiety and anxiety that he had waited for all night dissipated suddenly, and his mood immediately improved a lot.

He watched the other person's figure gradually become clear, and walked slowly in front of him.

"came back."

The corners of Obi's mouth raised slightly unconsciously, seeing the girl's relaxed and natural expression, the expression in his eyes became a little gentler.

Nerves that had been tensed all night finally completely relaxed.

Yeying looked at Obi who came to pick her up, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

The delicate face was sprinkled with a layer of hazy light in the morning sun.

She walked in front of Obi, stopped, and raised her head to meet Obi's gentle gaze.

The smile on the corner of her mouth was a little sweeter again.

"Well, I'm back."
