Chapter 11: Brother and Sister Meet Again

  The soft sunlight shines on the transparent glass door and window, looking at the refracted light that has a layer of golden light on the withered grassland and leaves, such a gentle and quiet brightness, without a ripple, without whispering. But it gives people a very comfortable feeling.

  The two people were still lounging in the coffee shop, sitting comfortably and lazily, watching people come and go on the street, chatting about irrelevant things. It was very leisurely.

  Ling, leaning against the window, gazed at a loving couple laughing and playing outside. The man was handsome, and the woman was elegant. They were a perfect match. Seemingly thinking of something, she turned her head to look at Yan Xinmeng, who was staring blankly ahead, sipping his coffee absent-mindedly, and asked with a chuckle: "By the way, Xinmeng, is your brother handsome? Is he as elegant as you?"

  "Cough, cough..." Xīn Mèng, who was drinking coffee, almost choked to death when she heard her sister's words. How did this girl suddenly ask such a question? Is she also gossiping now? Although Xīn Mèng was very puzzled, she rolled her eyes and teased: "Lín Xī, you're really not making a sound until you make a shocking one! However, I can tell you that if my older brother doesn't do stupid things, he's still worthy of his handsome face. Hmm, please use your knees to think about it, since I'm so handsome, how bad could my older brother be? It seems like the girls who are infatuated with him could fill up the Pacific Ocean! Hehe, just ask me!"

  As soon as she heard it, Lin Xi thought it was funny, huh? There must be some inside story! Covering her mouth with a light smile, she continued to ask: "Something stupid? Has your brother done something weird? He can't be as silly as you, right? Of course not, how could he be when you both have the same genes?"

  Xin Meng picked up her coffee and took a sip, glancing at the person in front of her who was secretly smiling. She slowly opened her mouth and said: "Where, where, compared to my brother's foolishness, I'm not even worth mentioning. My brother has already reached the pinnacle of foolishness that cannot be surpassed. For example, when he was a kid, he became obsessed with a movie and actually made seven identical holes in his chest to imitate the male lead. He thought it was cool, but as a result, due to inflammation and other complications, he ended up staying in the hospital for half a year before recovering."

  Suddenly, Lin Xi felt a chill run down her spine and she had a shivering feeling. Lin Xi was stunned, twitching the corners of her mouth. Well, it seems that there are still such silly and lovely people in this world! It really fits that saying, "not one family doesn't have its own foolishness!" Suddenly, Lin Xi felt that she could imagine what Xin Meng's silly face looked like...

  "It sounds really stupid, I'm sure you're absolutely a family. " Lin Xi covered her forehead with one hand and said helplessly. Foolish and lovely, foolish to the extreme, isn't this the characteristic of their family?

  "After being with him for a while, you'll find that he's even more stupid." Xīn Mèng said bluntly.

  "I think I agree," Lin Xi said with a hint of a smile.

  The two of them chatted happily, seemingly not taking the murmuring Liu Mengying beside them seriously. Seeing this, Mengying was very angry: "What's going on?! Are these two kids doing it on purpose? Always treating her like air, even when discussing some irrelevant topics, they don't want to talk to her at all? Just as she was about to say something to vent her dissatisfaction, the broadcast suddenly came on.

  "Yan Xinmeng from Class 1-0, your brother has been involved in a traffic accident. Please come to the infirmary immediately... please come to the infirmary immediately..."

  Upon hearing the news, Xīn Mèng suddenly felt a jolt, as if an electric current had flashed through her body. Her hands slapped heavily on the table, and she looked stunned. The other book friends were watching, but it wasn't hard to see that there was a burning anger hovering above her head.

  "What's going on? What is he doing now?" Xīn Mèng's tone couldn't help but reveal her concern and frustration.

  Lin urged Xinmeng, who had a worried look on her face, saying: "Xinmeng, hurry up and go. We'll settle the bill and then head to the infirmary to find you."

  "Alright, thanks! I'll be off then!" With that, Xinmeng immediately flew towards the infirmary!

  "Alright. Be careful on the road and don't rush. We'll hurry over right away too!" Lin Xi reminded.

  At the turn, Xinmeng turned back, smiled at her friends and said: "Alright, I'll wait for you." After finishing speaking, she took out the sprint of 100 meters and immediately flew forward! At this moment, the speed was absolutely not sloppy!

  As the dramatic scene just fell, Mengying finally woke up from her own fantasy and saw Linxi rushing to settle the bill. She said in confusion: "Huh? Linxi, I want to ask you what are you doing now? Settling the bill and preparing to leave? Thick! Am I okay? And where did Xinmeng go? Hey! I'm talking to you!"

  Only to see, Lin Xi finished the bill and without saying a word, directly dragged Meng Yin out running. At this time, Meng Yin was completely unclear about the situation and couldn't keep up with their pace at all. She was so angry that she said: "Hey, Lin Xi, can you hear me when I'm talking to you? Hey, are you guys full and have nothing better to do? Why are you running so fast, it's not like you're in a hurry to give birth."

  Ling Xi's mind was preoccupied with Xin Meng and his sister, and she didn't even notice Meng Yin yelling at her side. Seeing Ling Xi ignoring her, Meng Yin got annoyed, shook off her hand, raised her voice and said: "Hey, hey, Chu surname, I'm talking to you!! Where did Xin Meng go? What's going on?"

  "Oh no, Mengying, I'm begging you to stop dawdling! Xinmeng's older brother was in a car accident! Hurry up and let's go to the infirmary, maybe we can help with something. Let's go! Stop dragging your feet!" With that, Linxi grabbed Mengying's hand again and rushed towards the infirmary.

  It's in sight, almost there...

  "Big idiot, is your brain just for decoration?"

  "What? What did you say?"

  Listening to the noisy sound coming from the infirmary, Mengying couldn't help but wonder, "Huh? Why is it so noisy?" Please, this isn't a vegetable market, right? However, this voice... sounds kind of familiar! Speaking of which, where have I heard it before?

  The quarrelsome voices still lingered in the infirmary.

  "Good grief! How did I end up with an idiotic older brother like you?! Can't you just be slightly normal for once?! It's been a while since I've come back, can't you just let me catch my breath?!" Xīn Mèng was furious, almost yelling.

  "Haha, if I didn't see that face of yours which is 30% similar to mine, I'd really suspect you're the silly little girl who always followed me around when we were kids. Although it's been five years since we last met, your temper has increased to a surprising extent! And by the way, I'm three minutes older than you, so stop yelling at me, show some respect!"

  "Go, stop lecturing me, who would be stupid enough to use their feet to stop a bus?" she scolded mercilessly. But when she looked up, she saw a familiar slender figure quietly peeling an apple beside the hospital bed, exuding an aura that made one feel like they couldn't get too close.
