Yue Xin took a bite doubtfully. It looked ordinary, but the taste was not bad. It must have been instructed by her brother. As long as it was delicious!
However, after eating for a while, Yue Xin felt that something was wrong. When she and Fourth Brother ate, they seemed to be used to trying not to make a sound. There was no sound of cutlery colliding and no smacking of lips. Only a light chewing sound that was occasionally emitted. Most of the time, the dining area was quiet.
She couldn’t help but recall the scene when she usually ate with her brother. Her brother always found some unbelievable topics to chat with her. Today, it was suddenly gone. It was relaxed, but at the same time, it seemed to be missing something. Forget it, she should hurry back and lie down after eating.
Just as Yue Xin finished the last mouthful of soup and was about to run back to her room, Yue Lingyu, who had been silent, spoke, “Thank you for just now…”
Yue Xin was about to raise her butt when she heard this. She felt that Fourth Brother might have misunderstood something. She thought for a moment and said, “You don’t have to thank me. Big Brother asked me to go over.”
So he should not thank her and talk to her. It was good to keep it that way. Goodbye!
With that, Yue Xin stood up and left. When she turned around, she did not notice Yue Lingyu’s reactions to her words. The light in his eyes dimmed, and the warmth that had just surfaced disappeared.
Hence, just as Yue Xin was about to speed up and return to her room, a familiar cry came from behind.
Yue Xin stopped in her tracks. After eating and sleeping, her curiosity surged. She suddenly wanted to know why Fourth Brother kept crying.
She turned around and went straight to the point. “Fourth Brother, why are you crying?” Could it be because of the abnormal blood coagulation function? But she had never heard of abnormal blood coagulation function making people cry all the time.
Yue Xin recalled a sentence she had learned from Li Xiaoyu two days ago. “You’re so cute. You should be able to cry for a long time after punching you, right?”
Although her fourth brother was not cute and had not been beaten, he could still cry for a long time.
When Yue Lingyu heard Yue Xin’s question, he stopped crying. He wanted to say something, but he choked and could not say anything. Facing such an awkward situation, he cried even harder.
Yue Xin looked at Yue Lingyu in silence. She had only been eating and sleeping in her heart. Recently, an older brother had inexplicably entered. It was rare for her to have a new emotion. In order to figure out what this emotion was, she decided not to return to her room. She stood there and felt the emotions in her heart while observing how long her fourth brother could cry. Anyway, he had cried under her balcony for at least fifteen minutes this morning.
Yue Xin took out her phone and started to count down.
As the numbers on the screen jumped, she suddenly remembered what Big Sister had said about the use of tears. She had said that tears were a weapon, so she had to cry beautifully. Especially for people with independent consciousness, when they cried in front of others, they often had a clear signal. This was also a social need. So, was crying in front of her a social need?
Yue Xin held her phone for five minutes. She realized that Fourth Brother had no intention of stopping at all. The more he cried, the louder he became. If he continued crying, he would be dehydrated, right? If he was dehydrated, would he not be able to cry?
In order not to affect her observation, Yue Xin went to pour a glass of warm water for Yue Lingyu. She walked to his side and handed it over. “Fourth
Brother, drink some water.” If he drank water, she would not be afraid of him running out of tears and he could cry without restraint! She wanted to see how tears could be used as a weapon.
Yue Lingyu looked at the water in front of him and stopped crying, but he was still a little choked up. After taking the glass of water and having two sips, his tears stopped.
Yue Xin waited for a while. Seeing that Yue Lingyu had indeed stopped crying, she stopped the timer. She took a look and saw that it was only seven minutes. It was much shorter than when he cried in the morning.
Yue Lingyu looked at Yue Xin as he held the glass of water. He didn’t know why Yue Xin was still by his side if she didn’t care about him.
“Is this also what Big Brother requested?” Yue Lingyu suddenly asked. His voice had become hoarse from crying for too long. There were still tears at the corners of his eyes, and his eyes were red.
The eyes of ordinary people would become swollen after crying for too long. Not only was Yue Lingyu not like this, but he also looked very… beautiful. This was Yue Xin’s most honest feeling. Especially when he looked at her with his big wet eyes and asked this question, he looked even more pitiful. So this was what Big Sister meant in regard to crying beautifully.
Yue Xin took out her phone and took a photo of Yue Lingyu, recording the moment Big Sister’s famous words entered reality.
When Yue Lingyu heard the sound of the photo being taken, the anticipation in his heart disappeared again. He thought she must be reporting to Big Brother. Just like Second Brother and Third Brother. He knew very well that with his personality, other than Big Brother, if anyone in the family cared about him, it would definitely be due to Big Brother’s reminder or if they had other motives. Anyway, no one would like him, including Mom and Dad… Thinking of this, he wanted to cry again..
