C7 Human angel
I don't know how much time had passed, but when I woke up, I saw an enchanting face. It was a beautiful and adorable girl. Her age should be around the same as mine.
I thought I'd gone to heaven because I didn't believe hell would have such a nice face. In my mind at least, hell is full of evil spirits, and only heaven has such a moving angel.
"Where is this? Am I in heaven?" I asked blearily, looking at the beautiful young girl in front of me.
"You're awake!" The image was so beautiful that I could not describe it in words.
In a daze, I whispered, "You... Are you an angel? " He tried to get up from the bed.
"What are you talking about? This is my house, my name is Xing Yue, you can call me Xiao Yue. " The girl called Xingyue said so.
"Xingyue?" I looked suspiciously around the room and saw that it was a very simple room. There was almost no furniture except for a wooden bed and a wooden table, and the floor was made of concrete. There was no decoration, let alone a carpet. In short, the whole environment seemed extremely crude to me. Perhaps, using the word "crude" to describe it was a little too extravagant.
I snapped out of my daze and asked the girl called Star-moon, "This …" Is this really not heaven? Am I not dead? "
Xingyue couldn't help but giggle and say, "If heaven really looks like this, I'm sure not many people would be willing to go. "Of course you're still alive, I'm still a living person. If you don't believe me, you can pinch yourself and see if it hurts or not."
When I heard this, I squeezed my hand and realised that I was in pain, so I completely believed her. I looked at Xingyue and asked, "Did you save me?"
"Of course not, I don't have that." "It was my big brother who saved you."
"Your brother?" I was surprised.
Xingyue nodded her head and then asked me seriously, "Why do you want to die? I see that you are not that much older than me.
Being asked this question, I was immediately speechless. There was too much helplessness, too much sadness, and too much heartache. For a moment, I didn't know how to reply. However, if time can reverse, I will still choose to die, because I can't think of any way out. The world is silent, only I don't know where to go, I have no one to rely on, I don't have a single skill to help me, and I simply can't survive.
"I... "I …" I stuttered, feeling like a helpless child, and my heart was sick.
"Forget it. You should rest for a while. I won't force you to tell me. After all, everyone has their own secrets that cannot be told." Xing Yue said, "But I hope that you won't court death, and that you won't waste my brother's good intentions. He almost lost his life."
When I heard these words, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart. I silently looked at the cheerful and adorable girl before me before solemnly nodding my head in agreement.
For some reason, I had a very good impression of this girl I had just met. Firstly, it was because she was beautiful, and secondly, she had a temperament that I had never felt from a woman before. This temperament caused me to feel at peace with myself.
To put it bluntly, I loved her more for the spirit that emanated from her, than for her body, which was equally attractive.
"By the way, what's your name?" Xing Yue smiled as she asked me, "I don't even know what to call you."
When she asked this question, I felt embarrassed because I didn't even know who I was, and I didn't want to say the name my enemy had given me, so I stammered, "I... Call... Zhen... "Zhen …" Just as I was trying to come up with a name for myself, Star-Moon suddenly interrupted my thoughts.
She giggled and said, "So your name is Zhen Zhen Zhen, not bad!"
When I heard this, I was stunned for a moment before nodding my head. I smiled awkwardly and said, "Thank you for your praise. It's actually quite ordinary …" He decided that he would use this name temporarily in the future. The key was that I also liked this name.
"Big brother Zhen, I'm going to school soon. When my big brother comes back, he'll cook dinner for you." After saying that, Xingyue stood up and turned to leave.
I called out to her, "Miss Xingyue, please wait!"
"You can just call me Xiao Yue." "What else do you want?"
"Yes …" Xiao Yue... "I …" I suddenly didn't know what to say. At that time, I just wanted to keep her with me and let her accompany me for a while. After thinking like lightning, I asked, "I want to ask, are you still in high school?"
"That's right!" "I'm in my third year of high school this year, and I'm about to enroll in a university."
I made an "oh" and wasn't surprised, because from the start I thought she was about my age, and it turned out to be true.
"Is your brother also a student?" I asked next.
"No …" When she answered this question, she slightly lowered her head with a sad expression. After a while, she slowly said, "My brother doesn't study anymore. In order to earn money for me to study, he left school and went to work."
"What about your parents?" I asked in surprise.
When Star-Moon heard my question, she didn't answer immediately. She first slowly turned around, then slowly replied, "They are no longer here …"
At that time, I really regretted asking such a stupid question, but since I did, I could only apologize and say, "I'm sorry …" I didn't mean to, so don't take offense. "
"It's fine, even if you don't ask, this can't change the fact." Although Xingyue spoke very freely, I could still hear the sadness in her voice.
I would have liked to comfort her, but I myself was an unfortunate person, what right did I have to comfort others? In the end, I chose to remain silent and watched her slowly leave until she disappeared from my sight.
Without a doubt, Xingyue and her brother were good people.
They didn't even know who I was before they rescued me and even allowed me to rest at home. How many people in the world could do that?
If I hadn't experienced it myself, I wouldn't have believed there was such a good person.
After all, this was a society where no one dared to support an old man even if he fell on the ground.
After Xingyue opened her eyes, I got out of my bed and found out that I was wearing an ill-fitting pyjamas. I guessed that it belonged to Xingyue gege. Judging by the size of her clothes, her brother should be a burly man. It was really hard to imagine that such a valiant elder brother would have such a petite and cute little sister.
I walked around the house, and it only took me half a minute, because the house was so small!
There were only two rooms and a living room the size of a palm. All that was left was a kitchen and bathroom that was smaller than a palm.
This house was not only small, but also extremely simple and crude. I had never lived in such a simple place before, and I thought that this must be the rumored slum!
There are lots of slums in Dragon Harbor. I've never been there, and I'm not interested in learning about them. I would never have dreamed that I would ever be able to experience such a life!
I was a little hungry, but I couldn't find anything to eat. I only found two cold steamed buns in the kitchen, which I wasn't interested in and couldn't swallow, so I didn't.
Finally, I went back to my bed and sat down. I quietly thought about things, and the charming face of Xingyue appeared in my mind once again. She really is an angelic girl. Her kindness and purity are something that none of the women I've ever seen before. She didn't even ask about my identity, yet she trusted me so much without a care. It sounds a little silly, but I prefer to say that it is pure. Perhaps in her heart, there is no bad person, no conspiracy, no scheming.
But reality was always cruel. The world was full of struggles, full of scheming, even full of killing. I was one of the victims, because I grew up in a conspiracy.
This terrible plot has turned me into a cripple.
Just as someone had said, there were many ways to kill people, and it was not necessary to take their lives. For example, turning a chivalrous hero into a lecherous, unambitious cripple was equivalent to killing them.
If I was still the young master of the Ye family from before, I would definitely give these siblings a huge amount of money to help them out of their predicament.
Xingyue's older brother was called Xingyun, he was indeed a tall and sturdy man.
When I saw him, the first thing I thought of was those muscular men of Mount Liang. He did have a certain heroic air about him, and I was impressed.
When he returned home, he first asked about my health, and after finding out that I was fine, he said, "You must be hungry. I'll cook right away, and we'll be able to eat later."
I said gratefully, "Sorry for the trouble."
"It's fine. Wait a moment, we'll talk while we eat." After he finished speaking, he went back to work.
Not long after, Nebula brought hot dishes to the table and motioned for me to sit down.
After I sat down, I didn't move my chopsticks. Instead, I asked curiously, "Your sister isn't coming home to eat?"
"Oh, she's taking the exam today, so she's eating outside. There's no need to wait for her. Hurry up and get up the chopsticks!" With that, he picked up the bowl and started to eat.
I also let out an "oh". Looking at the Nebula that was eating so boldly, I knew that it was definitely hungry.
After he ate for a while, I said to him, "I haven't thanked you for saving me."
"Thank me for what?" Nebula gulped down a mouthful of food, then curiously looked at me and asked, "Oh yeah, why are you seeking death, brother? I think you are only in your twenties, why are you so frustrated? "
"I'm actually only eighteen years old." I corrected slowly.
"Oh, I didn't expect you to be so young!" Nebula nodded and answered. It is necessary to describe his appearance here. As I said earlier, he is a tall and sturdy man whose age should be around 23-24 years old. After confirming the news later, it was similar to what I predicted. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He had a big nose and a big mouth. He looked rough. Other than that, he looked silly. To be exact, he looked silly. But overall, he could still be considered to be a tall and mighty figure, a rare image of a good person.
It's not surprising that he looks so different from his sister, because apart from the twins, my siblings look so different that I don't have to worry about that. To be honest, I'm a little envious of him having such a cute little sister like Xingyue.
"Then where is your home?" Nebula stared at me.
