C13 (1/2)

I grabbed my elder sister's arm and said in a sobbing tone, ”Elder sister, listen to me …”

However, there was a trace of impatience in her sister's eyes. She reached out her hand to take away my hand as she seemed to be suppressing the displeasure in her heart. Her lips curled up stiffly as she said, ”Enough. Xiaoxiao, it's getting late. I want to go back to my room to sleep.”

After saying that, she brushed past me and swiftly went upstairs. I stood still in a daze as I looked at her, completely at a loss as to what to do.

I didn't turn around to see what Song Mo Ran was doing. I only wanted to explain to my sister that everything she saw just now was not real and I didn't want her to misunderstand. Although my relationship with Song Mo Ran was no longer pure, I wanted to at least convince my sister that it was a misunderstanding.

I pulled my head back and looked at my shoes. I was a bit worried and even a bit sad. Is it my fault or is it Song Jue's fault?

”Little girl, stop trying your best to do these useless things. Your sister won't dare to do anything to you.” Song Mo Ran came forward and put his arm around my waist, and even used a bit of strength to pull me into his embrace. But facing his sudden strength, I lost my balance and almost fell down.

”Thank you brother-in-law.” I didn't look at Song Mo Ran's expression. After saying that, I turned around and prepared to head upstairs to my room.

As soon as I lifted my foot, I felt myself being pulled into a warm embrace by a force that made my arm ache.

The person hugging me is Song Mo Ran. Who else could it be? I placed my hands in front of his chest and tried to push him away, but his arms seemed to be very strong. In the face of such strength, I seemed very small.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of a heavy door closing. I realised that maybe my sister saw this and closed the door, maybe I was thinking too much, but I was also afraid that my sister would see this scene. I raised my foot and stomped down heavily.

”Lin Xiaoxiao, you …” Before I finished listening to what Song Mo Ran was saying, I ran back into my room, locked the door from the inside and pushed a chair against the door. I was afraid that Song Mo Ran might have a key.

I sat in front of my desk and took out my homework. I was completely lost in thought as I stared at the math problem in a daze. My mind was filled with my elder sister's eyes. They were filled with jealousy and hatred.

Sister must have noticed that something was wrong between Song Mo Ran and me, but her expression made me feel heartache and even guilty. She's my blood sister, taking care of me until now, but I can't believe that I would still have such a life with her husband.

The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became. I frantically scratched at my hair and shook my head. I pushed away the math homework in front of me and looked out the window in a daze, thinking about what I should do, how I should explain all of this to my elder sister and how I should face my elder sister.

After staying in the room for so long, the darkness had already invaded the entire city. Suddenly, I heard a door close. Is it my sister? Or Song Mo Ran?
