Chapter 703 The Secret of the Two

"Tenma, take her back to the hospital."

Xiao Xiao looked into Tianma's eyes and said seriously.

"Hospital."

The girl muttered to herself, her tone dejected and her expression somewhat listless.

She really didn't want to go back to the hospital.

But mom is there.

……

"I'll wait for you at the hospital."

Xiao Xiao blinked and said, "I'll apologize to mom and dad together with you."

"Really?"

The girl raised her head and smiled with surprise, "Thank you, big brother!"

The tender voice of a child seems even clearer and more pleasant because of its cheerful mood.

……

"Okay, let's go."

Xiao Xiao took a few steps back and watched the Pegasus leap lightly. It seemed as if light was pouring out from the long snow-white hair on its head, emitting a faint glow.

The white figure quickly disappeared from his sight.

……

"Then I should set off as well."

Xiao Xiao whispered to himself, "Gu Diao."

"Jie Jie~"

……

A huge black shadow flashed by in the deep night.

At lightning speed.

Soon, the destination appeared in Xiao Xiao's sight.

……

When Xiao Xiao jumped off the Gu Diao's back, the girl and Pegasus had not arrived yet.

……

Tianma carried the girl to the back of the inpatient building.

"I wonder if big brother has arrived yet?"

As she spoke, the girl turned her head and looked around.

"I've already arrived."

The sudden voice in the darkness startled the girl, but the next second she saw a familiar figure coming out of the corner and her heart instantly fell back to where it was. A cute smile appeared on her face, "Big Brother!"

"You're so fast, how did you get here?"

The girl later thought, why didn’t the older brother come with her on the Pegasus?
So, how will big brother come back?

Unexpectedly, the older brother was faster than both her and Tenma.

……

"secret."

Xiao Xiao smiled somewhat mysteriously.

The girl's cheeks puffed up instantly.

She hates secrets!
……

"Little bell."

Xiao Xiao's expression suddenly became somewhat serious, and his clear lines revealed a hint of coldness.

The girl subconsciously sat up straight and opened her eyes wide.

"Don't tell mom and dad about Tenma when you see them later."

……

"Ah, why?"

The girl looked confused.

……

"If Xiaolingling wants to go home tomorrow instead of staying in the hospital-"

"Don't mention anything about Tianma in front of Mom and Dad from now on."

"do you know?"

……

The girl pursed her lips, her dark eyes full of stubbornness.

……

"Did I tell Xiao Lingdang before-"

"Little Bell can see Pegasus."

"But Mom and Dad can't see Pegasus."

"So mom and dad won't believe what Little Bell said."

"I would feel like Little Bell is lying."

……

"Is it okay for Little Bell to become a bad lying kid in the eyes of mom and dad?"

……

"But isn't that lying?"

The girl asked hesitantly.

……

Xiao Xiao rubbed the girl's head.

There is no other way.

seeing is believing.

For those who cannot see, the power of language is pale and powerless. …

"Others" are always difficult to understand.

He didn't want the girl's growing environment to have any negative changes because of Tianma.

……

"Tianma, let's just keep this a secret between big brother and little bell, okay?"

Xiao Xiao had a smile on his face, but his eyes were serious.

……

The girl was stunned. "Secret?"

"Well, secret."

Xiao Xiao nodded cautiously, "Tianma was originally Big Brother's secret."

"I didn't expect that Xiao Lingdang would find out."

……

"Of course, this is the fate between Xiao Lingling and Tianma."

Xiao Xiao's lips curled slightly, "But since Xiao Lingdang knows about it, I can only ask Xiao Lingdang to help me keep it a secret."

"May I?"

……

The girl was suddenly asked so seriously by her elder brother. She was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks suddenly turned red and her eyes sparkled. "Yes!"

The feeling of helping others keep a secret is very strange. It makes girls inexplicably excited and feel a great sense of responsibility.

She had a feeling of being important.

This feeling... is great!
……

"Really?"

Xiao Xiao had a serious face.

"real!"

Xiao Lingling also had a serious expression on her face and nodded heavily.

……

"very good."

Xiao Xiao laughed, and the tension on his face seemed like an illusion. "Little Bell is very reliable."

Little Bell shyly turned away her gaze, but soon met Xiao Xiao's gaze again, her face serious, "I will keep Tianma's secret."

"Well, I believe in the little bell."

Xiao Xiao bent down and patted the girl's tender shoulders.

It's not a pat on the head, like treating a child, but a more equal way of affirmation.

Little Bell laughed even more happily.

……

In the elevator, looking at the jumping numbers, Xiao Lingling became more and more uneasy and helpless.

There were always other things distracting her before, but until now, in the quiet and small space, even the air seemed a little suffocating.

When the girl thought about her parents whom she would meet soon, she really had the urge to turn around and run away.

……

The girl has always been a good daughter to her parents.

The previous "being unreasonable" and "throwing a tantrum" in order to raise Tianma was really the first time she did that.

Unexpectedly, after that willful behavior, she stayed out all night again.

She is really afraid of her parents scolding her.

……

Mom and Dad hardly ever scolded her.

At most, I could just educate her seriously.

Just that made her feel uncomfortable.

Once, after a class meeting at school, she saw a parent from the next class scolding his or her child on the way.

The sharp soprano voice and hurtful words made her feel sad and embarrassed even though she was not the child being scolded and just heard them from the side. She simply could not imagine herself being treated like this.

……

Is she going to be scolded too?
Will she be beaten?

The girl suddenly remembered the boys in her class grimacing and looking terrified when they talked about how they were beaten, and she felt terrible.

She really went too far this time.

Maybe... I will really be beaten?

……

"Ding~"

The elevator has arrived.

……

The sudden sound was like a thunderclap exploding in the girl's ears. "Ah~" the girl was so frightened that her whole body shook violently and she screamed with a hint of crying in her voice.

"Little bell?"

Hearing that something was wrong with the voice, Xiao Xiao looked down at the little girl with concern.

……

The gentle and caring voice made the girl suddenly look up at the older brother beside her, tears already welling up in her eyes.

"Big brother!"

The girl stretched out her little hand and grabbed the corner of Xiao Xiao's clothes tightly, with a look of panic.

……

"What's wrong, little bell?"

"Were you scared by the sound of the elevator?"

Xiao Xiao bent down and picked up the girl. He gently patted her back and soothed her emotions while slowly walking out of the elevator.
