my sister never called brother

"Ah?!" Zhou Han recovered, nodded, and said, "Okay."

He looked at the bento in his hand and started eating.

Yao Xiaorui is very happy now, because her hard work has finally paid off, and she feels it is worth it.

After taking a few mouthfuls, Zhou Han put down the bento, but didn't finish it all.

"Taste... how does it taste..." Yao Xiaorui asked timidly with a blushing face.

"This..." Zhou Han hesitated to speak.

Yao Xiaorui's bento doesn't taste very good, it's far worse than that of Miyazaki Airi, Zhou Han doesn't know how to say it.

"What's wrong?" Yao Xiaorui put her hands on her chest and became nervous, "Is it delicious?"

"Uh... this..." Zhou Han felt a little embarrassed when he was questioned, thought for a while, and planned to tell the truth, what if some problems were triggered in the future?

But the moment Zhou Han opened his mouth, he saw Yao Xiaorui's fingers with Band-Aids, and his heart softened.

Sometimes lies are not full of malice. Although they are also deceitful, the results are not the same.

"It's not bad, not bad at all." Zhou Han shook his head, trying to keep his expression as natural as possible, and said seriously, "It's delicious, really delicious!"

"Really..." Yao Xiaorui breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and said, "Then I can rest assured..."

In order to imitate the trick, Zhou Han continued to eat the bento, this time he devoured it, it seemed that the bento was really delicious.

After Zhou Han quickly finished eating, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

Yao Xiaorui noticed that Zhou Han's mouth was still stained with oil, "Ah...wait a minute."

"Huh?" Zhou Han was confused.

Yao Xiaorui turned around and took out a white handkerchief, leaning sideways, stretched out her hand, trying to wipe Zhou Han clean.

Zhou Han was stunned, but quickly recovered, and hid back for a while as if shocked by electricity.

He is not used to this kind of thing to be taken care of by others, especially this kind of ambiguous behavior between lovers, which makes him a little bit unacceptable.

Yao Xiaorui froze, took back her handkerchief, looked shy, and asked awkwardly, "What's wrong?"

"This kind of trivial matter, I should do it myself." Zhou Han's tone was not natural, he stretched out his sleeve and wiped it again.

"Okay..." Yao Xiaorui said with some disappointment, and silently folded the handkerchief.

"Why are you on the playground at this time?" Zhou Han asked softly.

"I..." Yao Xiaorui lowered her head and thought for a while, then said, "The classroom is too boring, I'll come out to relax"

"Don't lie, Sanxin still has a lunch..." Zhou Han said.

"What about you?" Yao Xiaorui looked at Zhou Han and asked with a smile, "Why are you on the playground at this time?"

"I..." Zhou Han paused, eyes dodged, and said, "Come out to exercise."

"You are the one lying." Yao Xiaorui retorted Zhou Han.

"Uh..." Zhou Han blushed, feeling a little ashamed.

"I know what difficulties you have encountered recently, so don't lie to me, I will really be sad." Yao Xiaorui said this with a very serious expression and tone.

The two fell silent.

Zhou Han looked down at the gray playground. He didn't want to reveal his thoughts, not anyone else. He still kept the stubbornness and self-esteem that he had to take care of himself.

Yao Xiaorui looked up at the blue sky, thinking how to persuade Zhou Han to ask her partner for help.

Time passed slowly like a stream, and finally Yao Xiaorui spoke first.

"Why don't you ask others for help when you are in trouble?"

"It's not a big deal..." Zhou Han frowned, paused, and said, "I can handle it myself."

"You are really confident, much better than me..." Yao Xiaorui kept smiling and sighed.

Zhou Han was a little embarrassed, what confidence could he have?Just now, I clearly wanted to break the jar and escape from reality.

"Would you like to hear the story of my childhood?" Yao Xiaorui asked Zhou Han cheerfully.

"Yes." Zhou Han lowered his head and said sullenly.

"Don't be annoying!" Yao Xiaorui blinked and said.

"How come?" Zhou Han whispered.

"Hee hee." Yao Xiaorui smiled, raised her head, as if thinking about it, and said quietly, "When I was young, I liked listening to stories before going to bed, especially fairy tales, because the gods in them are all supernatural, but also endowed with Human nature, makes me feel very kind..."

Zhou Han looked at the girl beside him, but he didn't make any sound. He chose to be a quiet listener.

"The stories from the Bible are what I listen to the most, because my grandma is a devout Christian, and she tells me stories every night." Yao Xiaorui paused, and continued, "I remember the most deeply in Genesis, After God created the world, he created human beings in his own image. At that time, I couldn’t understand why God created human beings when he was already so powerful. Do you know why?”

"Uh...this...." Zhou Han was a little panicked when asked suddenly, and replied casually, "Probably...for fun, just like we watch ants."

"Really, but I don't think so." Yao Xiaorui smiled happily and expressed her point of view. "I think it's God who feels lonely?"

"Lonely!?" Zhou Han was stunned, a little confused.

"That's right, the world is so big, if he's the only one, can he not feel lonely?" Yao Xiaorui blinked and said seriously.

Zhou Han didn't answer, he felt that what Yao Xiaorui said made some sense.

"The omniscient and omnipotent God will feel lonely, and he needs to rely on creating human beings to alleviate it. This is the performance of relying on others." Yao Xiaorui looked at Zhou Han and said what he really wanted to say, "Even gods rely on others, what do you have? Why not rely on it?"

"This..." Zhou Han was at a loss for words and didn't know how to answer. He wanted to laugh when he said the reason, but he couldn't let go of his self-esteem.

Zhou Han has been relying on himself since he was a child. He has long believed that it is better to ask for others than to ask for himself. He doesn't want others to see his weak side.

I would rather go home in the rain than borrow an umbrella.

I would rather pretend to sleep in class than attend class.

I would rather put on a cold face than take the initiative to talk to people.

He did it all to make himself look stronger——

In order to protect his poor self-esteem.

Seeing Zhou Han's hesitant expression, Yao Xiaorui was puzzled and asked softly, "Is there any other reason?"

"Uh..." Zhou Han came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, hesitating whether to tell the truth.

Yao Xiaorui's beautiful eyes showed a bit of sincere concern, Zhou Han was taken aback for a moment, to be honest, there were only a handful of people who showed such eyes to him, but they were all very close to him.

For a moment, the flood control dam in Zhou Han's heart became a little loose.

"That...I..." Zhou Han scratched his nose and said, "I don't want to ask others, it's too...too disrespectful."

"So that's the case!" Yao Xiaorui breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a sunny smile, "Isn't this something worth worrying about?"

"Ah!? Isn't something as important as dignity worthy of attention?" Zhou Han was stunned, unable to understand why something he only cared about would be dismissed as worthless.

"I think what you care about is not your dignity, but your face. These two are not the same thing." Yao Xiaorui said with a smile.

"No...I'm..." Zhou Han's eyes widened, his face flustered, as if what he had been hiding all along had been torn apart.

"Dignity is respect and majesty, and you have to strive for it by yourself, but face is selfish, just like the emperor's new clothes in fairy tales, which are naked, but insist on a smug look." Yao Xiaorui concealed Zui smiled and said, "It's really funny, isn't it?"

"Uh..." Zhou Han blushed, the feeling of being exposed was not good, but Yao Xiaorui was right, he had always been selfish.

Zhou Han knows himself very well, he is not a saint, he is just a high school student full of troubles.

"Before I met you, I was just like you. I also cared about face. All entrustments were made in letters. I didn't dare to go face-to-face. Although there was also a factor of shyness, it was not the main thing... "Yao Xiaorui paused, and said in a melodious voice, "The main reason is that I think it's very embarrassing to ask others for help when it comes to love. Don't look at me as transparent, I also have my own bottom line."

Zhou Han looked at the small fist raised by Yao Xiaorui. Although it was not lethal, it also had some courage in it.

"But this won't work..." Yao Xiaorui's momentum weakened, and he said in a tangled voice, "Some things cannot be solved without letting go of my false dignity, just like me, but luckily I found it." someone you can rely on..."

Yao Xiaorui looked at Zhou Han, his eyes kept flickering, and said word by word, "He is you."

"Ah!?" Zhou Han was taken aback, he was very surprised, his relationship didn't do anything big, the one Yao Xiaorui said should not be his own.

Zhou Han's eyes dodged, not daring to look at Yao Xiaorui's piercing eyes, the impenetrable city wall in his heart was already full of cracks.

What made Zhou Han most nervous was the strange and rigid atmosphere, which made it difficult for him to adapt.

Zhou Han already knew that Yao Xiaorui liked him, and he was not stupid to the bone.

Yao Xiaorui took the initiative to approach him, and gave him lunch under the pressure of being treated coldly. No matter how I thought about it, it couldn't be ordinary gratitude.

Zhou Han swallowed his saliva, he didn't know what to do, because Yao Xiaorui's eyes became more and more wrong, and it was easy to feel the complicated emotions.

Yao Xiaorui blushed, her eyes rolled, she covered her chest with her hands, she leaned slightly towards Zhou Han, and said sincerely——

"Zhou Han, I like you."

Chapter 110 Bestow Courage

At that moment, Zhou Han couldn't hear the wind, but could only hear the beating of his own heart.

Yao Xiaorui slowly approached Zhou Han.

In this silent state, the atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous.

Zhou Han swallowed his saliva with a "gudong" sound, he felt that Yao Xiaorui was about to pounce on him.

Facing Yao Xiaorui's confession, Zhou Han didn't know how to answer her.

Because all of this developed too quickly for Zhou Han.

If he refused decisively, Zhou Han was afraid that Yao Xiaorui would be sad.

If you don't refuse decisively, this messy relationship will cause harm to both of you sooner or later.

Yao Xiaorui likes Zhou Han, so does Zhou Han like Yao Xiaorui?

I'm afraid even Zhou Han himself doesn't know.

Because Zhou Han was also confessed by a girl for the first time, he was very flustered.

Just when Yao Xiaorui was about to boldly say the following words, Zhou Han frowned, cut the mess with a sharp knife, cut a line between likes and dislikes, and suddenly said——

"Sorry, I have a girl I like."

Yao Xiaorui trembled all over, she thought she had heard wrong, she kept her body stiff and motionless.

Time freezes, and the wind seems to have stopped.

Yao Xiaorui couldn't believe that this lonely boy in front of her would have someone she liked, all this made her feel a little unbelievable.

She guessed every girl around Zhou Han, including herself, but she couldn't figure out who it was.

Because everyone has a certain distance from Zhou Han.

"Can you tell me who she is?" Yao Xiaorui asked a little disappointed.

"That..." Zhou Han hesitated.

He looked at Yao Xiaorui and felt that it was necessary to speak out, otherwise it would be too unfair to a girl.

Zhou Han looked into Yao Xiaorui's eyes and said a girl's name.

But the school bell rang untimely.

Only Yao Xiaorui knew the name Zhou Han said.

"It's her..." Yao Xiaorui asked with an unnatural expression, "You like her, so does she like you?"

"I don't know..." Zhou Han replied.

Yao Xiaorui was stunned, then ignited the flame of hope again, and said with a forced smile, "What? It turned out to be unrequited love, I still have a chance, right?"

"Eh!?" Zhou Han didn't react.

"Do you hate me?" Yao Xiaorui asked.

Zhou Han shook his head.

"Then do you like me?" Yao Xiaorui asked.

"This..." Zhou Han dodged his eyes and said, "I don't know either."

Yao Xiaorui was a little disappointed, but still smiled and said, "It's okay, I will make you like me."

Zhou Han raised his head to look at this sunflower-like girl full of sunshine.

Yao Xiaorui stood up, walked a few steps in front of Zhou Han, and turned around suddenly.

Under the blue sky, when the girl turned around, the corners of her skirt slowly lifted, revealing the snow-white skin on her legs.
