The hoard of people dispersed, leaving only Cheng Yang and Xiao Ying on the beach.
Xiao Ying slowly walked to the seaside and sat down. She hugged her legs and remained silent.
Cheng Yang followed her and asked, "Little girl, do you have any wishes?"
Xiao Ying took a deep breath and suppressed the surging emotions in her heart."I want you to live a long life."
Cheng Yang was stunned. He hadn't expected such a wish.
He smiled and said, "Why must one live so long? Life is beautiful because it's short."
The Cheng Yang from the past would never expect such words to come out of his own mouth.
Xiao Ying glared at Cheng Yang and said fiercely, "You're already so much older than me. What will I do if you don't live to be a hundred years old?"
Cheng Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. So that was the reason. But was he that old?
Xiao Ying continued, "Cheng Yang, you must live a long life. If you're not around, with my personality, I'll be bullied by others."
Cheng Yang did not know why Xiao Ying was so insistent on this. He stroked her head and said, "Don't worry. Even if I die, I'll arrange everything for you. I won't allow my little girl to be mistreated in the slightest."
These words instantly pierced Xiao Ying's heart. She glared at Cheng Yang angrily. She wanted to express her anger, but she couldn't control herself and tears flowed out of her eyes. 𝘧𝘳e𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣noѵℯ𝘭 - 🅽🅽novel
Cheng Yang said in a panic, "Don't cry. I'll stop talking."
Xiao Ying ignored him and sat back in the car angrily. She recalled Cheng Yang's fate in her previous life and recalled his calm gaze when he admitted that he was a murderer. Her heart ached just thinking about it.
What had he gone through to become like that?
Cheng Yang followed her and looked at Xiao Ying, who was still crying in the car, saying, "I'll live a long life. I definitely will."
Xiao Ying sniffled and said, "You promised me that you wouldn't do anything illegal."
Cheng Yang paused. Seeing that she was getting more anxious, he could only say, "I promise you that I won't do anything illegal."
Xiao Ying continued, "No matter what happens, you won't kill anyone. Promise me."
Cheng Yang found it funny. What was this girl thinking about every day? He said helplessly, "I promise you, I won't kill anyone."
Xiao Ying's emotions finally calmed down a little.
Cheng Yang patted her head and said, "Who do you think I am? When did I give you the impression of a criminal?"
Xiao Ying did not know how to explain. She could only say, "I'm just warning you. Many people will do bad things once they become rich."
"Watch fewer dramas in the future. It's not like it's the first day I've been rich, " Cheng Yang said.
"You're a man now, so of course you would be different from when you were a boy, " Xiao Ying said righteously.
Cheng Yang looked deeply at Xiao Ying. Why was she so sure of this?
He knew that Xiao Ying had many secrets.
Xiao Ying naturally sensed his probing gaze, but she had no choice. If she didn't say it directly, she wouldn't feel at ease with just giving him vague reminders.
When the two of them returned home, Xiao Ying thought that the birthday surprise prepared by Cheng Yang had been over. Unexpectedly, when she entered the house, she saw the cake on the table.
The white cake emitted a warm glow under the yellow candlelight. Cheng Yang pulled out Xiao Ying's seat for her like a gentleman.
Xiao Ying looked at Cheng Yang's every move with a smile. On the cake were the words: Happy birthday to the cutest little sister.
Xiao Ying snorted and said, "Brother, you definitely didn't write those words."
Cheng Yang was a little embarrassed as well, and he made a mental note to deal with the assistant who acted on his own accord.
The poor assistant did not know that the sudden increase in workload in the future was because of his small act of mischief.
After finishing the cake, Xiao Ying returned to her room.
Suddenly, there was a strange movement by the window.
It was the sound of pebbles striking the window.
