Chapter 310 - Sorry, Brother Didnt Protect You (2/2)
Jian Yiling opened the box and saw all sorts of small objects in the box.
Jian Yiling took the objects out, one by one, and looked at them.
Jian Yunmo sat next to her and watched her silently.
The items in the time capsule stirred up his memories. The memories inflicted a stab of pain in Jian Yunmo’s heart.
Back then, their sister had been so lively. So sweet and so innocent.
But now, she had become a thoughtful and clever child. However, she was also silent and distant.
“Yiling, I’m sorry.”
Jian Yiling turned her head to look at him.
Jian Yunmo didn’t wait for Jian Yiling to reply to him. He continued to speak: “I wasn’t there for you. I let you face all the accusations and abuse by yourself. As your older brother, I didn’t protect you when you were hurt. I didn’t s.h.i.+eld you from the wind and the rain when you were most helpless. I failed to be a good brother.”
“I don’t blame you,” Jian Yiling replied.
“I should have been there for you. I should have cared for you more.”
“You’re ill.”
Psychological illnesses were also real illnesses. They were difficult to control.
Ahhh… So she knew. Jian Yunmo paused for a while before he gazed into Jian Yiling’s eyes. Sour yet warm emotions welled up in his heart.
“Are you scared?” Jian Yunmo asked. There was a hint of nervousness in Jian Yunmo’s voice.
“I’m not scared.”
She wasn’t scared of him? He thought that he would scare her and ruin the image of himself that she had in her mind.
Then, Jian Yiling added: “You’re doing well right now. You won’t hurt me.”
Jian Yunmo smiled warmly.
The words ‘I’m not scared’ was a ray of sunlight that shone into his heart.
He slowly leaned back against the tree trunk behind him. The temperature in his eyes gradually warmed up.
“Yiling, I will take my medication. I’ll get better as soon as possible.”
Jian Yunmo vowed to Jian Yiling.
