It was still the same face, gentle as jade. On Shen Siyu"s mouth hung a pure and honest smile.

"Big Brother Siyu!" Shen Yanxiao looked at Shen Siyu, who she had not seen for a long time, and smiled from the bottom of her heart.

"You’ve grown taller. You’ve grown up a lot, I see.” Shen Siyu smiled and reached out his hand to pat the small head of Shen Yanxiao. After they had separated back then in Holy Roland School, they had not seen each other for over half a year.

The little girl in front of his eyes, although not yet fully an adult, had already revealed the charms that belonged to young ladies; only, under this young lady’s beauty, boldness and wisdom that did not belong to her age were also hidden.

"Don’t do that anymore, I’ll turn back to being a little kid." Shen Yanxiao smilingly said. Even though she knew that they had no blood relations.h.i.+p, she still felt that this big brother was very kind. This kind of feeling seemed to be inborn and had nothing to do with blood.

"Even if you become a little kid, you will still be the most loveable one."

The brother and sister stood at the doorway and chatted. Lan Fengli stood behind Shen Yanxiao, staring at the intimacy between Shen Yanxiao and Shen Siyu. There was a trace of loneliness in his eyes.

Shen Siyu noticed Lan Fengli. He gently swept his eyes over him and then asked with a smile, "Is this your younger brother?"

Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows and stepped back. She held the lonely Lan Fengli under her arm and proudly said, "The one and only best younger brother under the sky and across the land."

Lan Fengli’s body shook slightly. His small face that was hanging down blushed red, and his heart leaped with Shen Yanxiao’s words.

Shen Siyu chuckled and said nothing more.

"You guys are out there talking so much, have you forgotten your old man here?" Shen Feng’s harsh voice sounded from inside the study.

Shen Yanxiao and Shen Siyu looked at each other and stuck out their tongues before they entered the study together.

Shen Feng looked at Shen Yanxiao, who he hadn"t seen for half a month. His pair of old eyes quickly examined her from top to bottom.

"Skinny! Did you even have a good rest there at Twilight City?" Shen Feng looked at Shen Yanxiao with some distress. As the clan head of the Vermillion Bird Clan, he was naturally proud of her achievements. But as a grandfather, Shen Feng was very distressed due to Shen Yanxiao’s c.u.mbersome duties.

She was only fourteen years old. If she were already like a little old woman worrying about the whole country and the people all day long now, what would happen to her in the future, ah?

The other children at her age were still around their parents, but Shen Yanxiao had long given up the children"s play time and entered the various struggles in the Radiance Continent.

Every time he thought about it, Shen Feng felt very sorry for her.

"Grandpa, I’m very fine. What skinny, this is called slim. Women love to be beautiful." Shen Yanxiao did not want Shen Feng to worry about her, so she made all manner of quips and jokes to fool her grandfather.

Shen Feng’s face was taut as he said, “Love to be beautiful? So, you’re actually a girl who loves to be beautiful? Don’t try to fool your grandfather. Wait for your fifth uncle to give you some delicious supplements.” His son and daughter-in-law were already gone. This grandfather could not allow his little granddaughter to be too exhausted.

"I’ll listen to Grandpa"s arrangements." No matter how powerful she was in the outside, in front of Shen Feng, Shen Yanxiao also wanted to experience the warmth of a family.

"Big Brother Siyu came half a month ago. I presume you heard Grandpa criticize me a lot." Shen Yanxiao playfully said.

Shen Siyu chuckled and said, "Criticize? No. But I heard a lot of praises."

Shen Feng’s expression also eased down. He looked at Shen Yanxiao and said, “Your Big Brother Siyu came this time to bring news of your Third Uncle’s whereabouts.”
