Chapter 234 My sister is also a sister
Reading Settings
"Alright, let's call it a day. Old Meng and Xue Cheng, stay near the old cowshed. The rest of you, check the surrounding area for any traces left by others."
Fang Meng didn't explain, nor did she suggest not calling her "little sister-in-law." She acted as if nothing had happened and went straight to assigning tasks.
"Yes, boss!"
Luo Feng and the others didn't find anything strange. Although they hadn't heard that their captain had a girlfriend, they all knew that their captain had a childhood sweetheart who was working as an educated youth in Qishui Brigade.
Now there's no need to ask anymore; it's definitely this girl.
Now it seems that the two of them did indeed bring about a happy event, which is naturally something to be happy about as a brother who has gone through thick and thin with Fang Meng.
However, it's not appropriate to joke about this at this time, and even Luo Feng has temporarily given up on his idea of raising tigers.
As soldiers, we must obey orders and prioritize our mission above all else.
Bai Nuo looked at the group of people who had suddenly left with some confusion, then turned to Fang Meng and asked, "What happened?"
Fang Meng pursed his lips. He didn't know how to explain it; he was a little confused.
But a young man as willful and rebellious as Bai Nuo, who doesn't want to refute the term "little sister-in-law," naturally doesn't. So he'll just keep quiet for now, think it through, and figure things out before deciding what to do next.
Fang Meng has never been one to procrastinate, especially when it comes to matters concerning the little girl.
So Fang Meng directly pulled the little girl into his arms. Today was the first time they had such an intimate hug since they grew up, but there was no awkwardness or embarrassment at all, as if the years they had been separated had never existed.
"Niu Niu, listen to your second brother, go home and get some sleep first, we can talk about everything else tomorrow, okay!"
Actually, Fang Meng was lucky tonight. Bai Nuo's mind was a bit confused right now, and she was completely out of it, acting entirely on instinct and unable to think about anything in detail.
She was unusually obedient in front of Fang Meng.
"good!"
Bai Nuo nodded, and when she was carried away, she didn't forget to take the big tiger with her. Fang Meng took her directly back to her small home in the educated youth compound.
Fang Meng watched as Bai Nuo returned to her room, closed the door, and didn't turn on the lights. After a while, when there was no more movement inside, he guessed that the little girl must have gone back to her space.
That's good too. This space is a place exclusively for the little girl, and she'll feel safer inside. The thing that's always by her side should be able to take good care of her.
However, Fang Meng didn't leave. He just sat outside the gate of Bai Nuo's backyard, leaning against the wall and quietly looking ahead.
His mind was a complete mess, and his heart was pounding wildly.
He wasn't some dimwit; after a while of quiet reflection, he figured it out.
His current situation must be what their commander meant by "becoming enlightened" in matters of the heart. Thinking of this, a faint smile naturally appeared on his previously expressionless handsome face, and his eyes showed a hint of uncontrollable joy.
But the next second, the thought of forcing the little girl to call him "Second Brother" after their reunion felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.
He slumped down, a big young man who had been sitting upright against the wall just moments before. Now, his legs were bent, his head resting limply on his arms, and even his ears seemed to droop.
"What brother and sister? I don't want to be a brother anymore!" Fang Meng pouted and murmured aggrievedly.
Having been the little girl's older brother for over a decade, he now only wants to return that role to Brother Bai; he wants to change his identity.
wrong!
Fang Meng suddenly raised his head again, his brows furrowed as he carefully recalled the events.
When he was little, his aunt was still alive. He remembered that his aunt and uncle were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. Before and after they got married, they never changed how they addressed each other. They always called each other "brother" and "sister". Even though his aunt was several years older than his aunt, his uncle called her "sister". The couple also called his aunt "sister" or "little sister".
However, Aunt Bai passed away from illness when they were very young, and it was only after so many years that Fang Meng remembered this matter.
Yes, Qingmei is still a sister!
If Uncle Bai can call his childhood sweetheart "Big Sister," why can't he call his own wife "Little Sister"?
"But this little brat doesn't seem to get it!" Fang Meng turned his head to look behind him with a melancholy expression, only to see the cold, unyielding courtyard wall, which made him even more resentful.
"Why!"
The young man, who had been holding his head up for less than a minute, slumped down again, radiating dejection.
In both his previous and current lives, he never loved anyone. Although he was exceptionally talented in his previous life, awakening his superpowers at the age of three, he grew up with many stumbles and eventually became the strongest superpower user in Base One when he was just over ten years old.
And then, the nineteen-year-old was gone!
Actually, he had long since had enough of life by then. That world was too boring for him, and nothing seemed to interest him. He had never even considered becoming a savior. He grew up in the apocalypse, and he was already grateful to be able to live as a human being.
On the day he died, he did a good deed, which led to his own death.
I don't know what I was thinking at the time. I saw a few children and a teacher, each holding a stick, rushing recklessly towards the horde of zombies, as if they were going to save someone. I had a sudden impulse and rushed over, and ended up losing myself in the process.
Before he died, he had only one thought: that some idiot would have given him a heads-up before he went out. Fortunately, he threw a golden shield over those children and teachers in the end, which also fulfilled his desire to be a good person.
