"Miss, Master is on a business trip today and can't come back." The butler looked at Lin Sirou who was tidying up her clothes. There was a trace of worry in her eyes, as if she was hiding something, but Lin Sirou did not discover anything. She only felt that today was just a simple day.

Even though it was already autumn, there was still a trace of heat in the air. Lin Sirou didn't know why his father didn't tell him about his business trip today, but Lin Sirou trusted him a lot. Although Lin Sirou felt that he should be hiding something from Lin Sirou, Lin Sirou thought that he would tell Lin Sirou the truth.

As Lin Sirou walked on the street, there were only a few scattered people. The trees beside the road were covered with the dust of the past, which seemed like spots that could not be removed, stuck onto the trees forever.

Lin Sirou walked into a bookstore and went through the rows and rows of bookshelves. The books on top of the bookshelves were like chess pieces waiting to be played. Occasionally one or two students with headphones would rush in, heading for the magazine area, and they would be ready in advance, already thinking out what they wanted to buy a few weeks ago. He had been like this before.

In the past, Lin Sirou would squat in his dorm every weekend and cuddle up by his bed, reading new comics and novels, and discuss those moving plots together or discuss some characters with rich personalities. In the course of reading, we opened our hearts, we quietly comforted each other, we were like two birds in a nest, after the storm, we cherished each other even more. But now we are like roadside trees, separated by a thick wall, our bodies covered in dust, we can't see each other's shadows and sincerity, in the whistling of time, we are lost in the survival and money of their own hearts, the most pure and profound guarding.

In the past, Lin Sirou would often bring Zuo Shaojie to this bookstore. When Lin Sirou walked to the comics section, the comics he liked before were still there. The scenes that made them so moved that their eyes turned red appeared clearly in his mind, but the person who sighed with emotion beside them had already disappeared. Lin Sirou really wanted to draw a conclusion between himself and Zuo Shaojie, give their friendship a period, and give the images in Lin Sirou's mind a perfect ending. However, Lin Sirou did not know where the problem with them had appeared from, nor did he know when they started to suspect the other party. Lin Sirou felt that sooner or later, the two of them would become like this. Just like the last time when she sat in front of Lin Sirou, her smile was so foreign that it was hard for Lin Sirou to accept that the person in front of him was the person he had been hiding in his heart all this time.

At night, Zuo Jin walked in coldly and he barely managed to smile at Li Qingqing. Li Qingqing felt that Zuo Jin was especially tired these few days. He was different from before, his smile was not pure. Li Qingqing started to worry a little in his heart. He felt that if this carried on, we would end like Li Qingqing and Ji Chenxi. Li Qingqing's heart was in turmoil, as if something had sprouted inside. All day long, Li Qingqing was fearfully observing Zuo Jin's actions, hoping to find some information from his trails. However, Li Qingqing was completely disappointed, he really didn't know how to dig out and analyze another person's mental state. The butler kept shaking his head, saying that he didn't know and Xiao Yue was completely ignorant. Li Qingqing was really worried for him.

"Bro, just tell us what happened." Li Qingqing finally couldn't hold it in anymore as he stared at the serious face of Zuo Jin.

"Nothing, you …" He lowered his head slightly.

Li Qingqing knew that he must have been hiding something from her, and he didn't want to let her know, but Li Qingqing definitely wouldn't give up just like that. Li Qingqing didn't want the two siblings to be separated by a membrane and crack, lies and concealment was really a terrifying thing, so Li Qingqing interrupted Zuo Jin's words, "Quickly tell me everything, don't let me guess forever, you know that lies and concealment don't exist in our family." Li Qingqing's last sentence was extremely absolute.

Zuo Jin was truly shaken by Li Qingqing. He raised his head in shock, opened his eyes wide, and furrowed his brows slightly. On the surface, Zuo Jin did not bat an eyelid, as his sister was always so supportive and protective of him. Zuo Jin also sighed and said, "There's a problem with my company. There's a problem with my funds and my business at the same time. I can't take it anymore. I'm afraid I'll lose."

After Li Qingqing quietly listened to Zuo Jin's words, Li Qingqing knew that he was like an injured little deer that needed comfort and care, "Then why didn't you tell Li Qingqing, at least I can help you share your burden, I can think of a way, I can …"

"You only need to live a good life." After saying that, Zuo Jin stood up and walked into the room, leaving the room. Li Qingqing didn't know what kind of person Li Qingqing was in Zuo Jin's world, but at the very least, Li Qingqing hoped that he and Li Qingqing could share the hardships and challenges of life and life.

Li Qingqing hoped that he wouldn't have to shoulder all of this by himself. Li Qingqing had once carried all of his sadness and joy by himself through countless of helpless and unforgettable nights, and in the end, even Li Qingqing had almost collapsed. Li Qingqing could understand Zuo Jin, but Li Qingqing had always understood him very well.

"Miss, the young master doesn't have any other intentions. He only wishes for you to live a carefree life, that's fine …"

"Yes, Qing Qing knows, housekeeper." Li Qingqing stopped the butler from continuing. Li Qingqing knew that in reality, Zuo Jin had always silently taken responsibility for everything, and in his heart, Li Qingqing should always be enjoying life, not figuring out ways to resolve all kinds of bad things. But Li Qingqing was not such a delicate person. Li Qingqing was a strong person, Li Qingqing hoped that he could deal with all kinds of issues, not let his brother deal with them.

Li Qingqing stood up and walked into the room. His heart was as calm as the surface of a lake. Li Qingqing pushed the door open, and looked at Zuo Jin who was sitting on the windowsill. Looking at him who had a worried expression, Li Qingqing did not know why, but he felt that the current him was the real deal. He, who had a usual smile plastered all over his face, wore a fake mask, like a person who was hiding in a dark corner. What Li Qingqing saw was not him, but his back and Li Qingqing's fantasies. had always been able to enjoy a sufficient amount of sunlight and water every single day. He didn't know that all of this was due to the silent sacrifice that someone had made behind his back.

"Idiot, I will never lie to you. "Qing Qing will not be sad. Even if you don't have anything, Qing Qing will still be happy wherever you have a brother."

"Really …" Zuo Jin's voice trembled slightly. Li Qingqing knew that his heart was definitely filled with joy and gratitude.

However, Li Qingqing was not comforting him, everything that she said was from the bottom of her heart. She had always thought that her identity would not cause any problems for their relationship. Furthermore, Li Qingqing and Zuo Jin were carefree every single day, so Li Qingqing had a smile on his face the entire time. Every single day that he existed, Li Qingqing would feel that his life had gained hope and motivation. Every day, he would wait for to return home from work, wait for him to grab Li Qingqing's hand and walk around the courtyard, wait for him to lean on Li Qingqing's side and read those ancient books together with him, then flip through those photos.

"Did you know, big brother, the days you gave Qing Qing were like water droplets under the sun, transparent and shiny. Li Qingqing had never thought about what would happen if he couldn't live a wealthy life, because Li Qingqing had never been infatuated with this kind of life. What Li Qingqing likes is the feeling of being with you, and the sincerity you have towards Li Qingqing. So, even if you go bankrupt, Li Qingqing will still accompany you to the end. " Li Qingqing felt Zuo Jin's shoulder tremble slightly.

Li Qingqing did not truly enter his brother's world and had always been in a passive state to accept everything. He had never seriously considered these questions, to the point where when those questions appeared in Li Qingqing's life, Li Qingqing would not feel anything at all, and he would not be able to think of anything at all.

"Big brother, don't look down on me, I'm very strong." Li Qingqing quietly walked over and hugged Zuo Jin from behind. His spine immediately gave Li Qingqing a very comfortable and safe feeling. Li Qingqing leaned her face into his back like a spoiled child and gently rubbed it.

"Really? If one day you can't live like this, you will... "Are you sad …" Zuo Jin paused slightly. He was horrified by the consequences of what he had done.

Zuo Jin was afraid that Li Qingqing would leave him and abandon him after knowing that he was out of money. Li Qingqing did not get angry, because Li Qingqing knew that from start to finish, Zuo Jin was only thinking about Li Qingqing. Even if the company encountered such a big problem, he was more concerned about whether Li Qingqing would leave or not. Li Qingqing was very moved, Li Qingqing was truly satisfied. Big Brother's love for him was like the vast ocean that caused Li Qingqing to sink into the depths, allowing Li Qingqing to freely float within it. Li Qingqing had always been like a seedling in his cradle.

This pair of siblings had always appreciated each other so much.
