“Sisi, I want to go up the mountain early so I can hunt more game. The animals on the mountain are more active at night, so… ”
Di Yelei also felt somewhat reluctant. Previously, when he left home for a few days, he didn’t have this feeling of attachment. But now, as he thought about leaving home, his heart burned with a fiery sensation that he couldn’t describe!
“Dad! How long will you be gone this time?”
Di Xuan, who was standing nearby, asked before Liu Sisi could reply.
A rare smile appeared on Di Yelei’s face. He patted Di Xuan on the head: “I’ll be back tomorrow afternoon! You’re a man, you have to take care of your sister and listen to your mom’s words, understand?”
“Oh, I know.”
Di Xuan glanced at Liu Sisi before lowering his head to reply.
Liu Sisi inexplicably burst into laughter!
Although the child didn’t say it out loud, his face still bore a guarded expression, thinking that others wouldn’t notice. Yet, she could understand. She recalled her past life when her parents had passed away, and so-called relatives came to visit. At first, they comforted her, but when they realized her house was empty and there was nothing to gain, their sharp tongues came out…
“Sisi, Sisi!”
Di Yelei noticed Liu Sisi daydreaming and called her repeatedly.
Liu Sisi smiled apologetically: “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything at home. Just be careful when you’re hunting on the mountain. It doesn’t matter how much game you catch, what matters is your safety. Our family relies on you to support it, and you can’t have any accidents.”
Di Yelei wasn’t a person who was good at expressing himself, and he couldn’t speak sweet words.
He just smiled broadly, then lifted his iron arm and hugged Liu Sisi tightly.
“Sisi, rest assured, I’ll definitely come back safely!”
As his words still echoed, Di Yelei released her, turned around, and strode through the yard door.
Liu Sisi’s heart raced, and her face flushed red like the afterglow of the setting sun.
This man, how could he… do something like that?
The sweet feeling of being pampered touched Liu Sisi’s heart through her blushing cheeks.
She hurriedly walked a few steps, then ran out of the courtyard.
Outside the yard, Di Yelei and Zhang Peng walked along the mountain path toward the back mountain. As he walked with big strides, Di Yelei unconsciously looked back and saw Liu Sisi peering at them from a distance.
“Go back, go back! The sun is too strong outside.”
From afar, Di Yelei called out to Liu Sisi, waved his hand repeatedly, and then disappeared behind the mountain hollow with Zhang Peng.
