The shed where Shen Shuqiu lived was very simple, with only a bed, a stove and a dilapidated table.

Pei Rou was held tightly by Shen Shuqiu's little hand. Feeling the warmth in her palm, her frightened heart gradually calmed down.

"You must be hungry."

Shen Shuchou took her to the bed and asked softly.

At this moment, Pei Rou's face was still a little restrained, and she lowered her head and was a little embarrassed to speak.

Shen Shuqiu smiled knowingly, and then he took out a box from under the bed, which contained the dried meat he had collected.

Shen Shuqiu stuffed the dried meat into Pei Rou's hand and said with a smile, "Eat it! This is not rice meat, it's venison. I'll boil some water for you."

Shen Shuqiu walked to the stove and started a fire skillfully. As the flame burned, the temperature in the small shed gradually rose.

During this period, Pei Rou had been secretly looking at Shen Shuqiu with her peripheral vision, and the firelight reflected on the side of Shen Shuqiu's face.

The stern face has clear outlines, and the high bridge of the nose is more prominent in the light and shadow.

Under the firelight, the big profile looks like a natural beauty, which makes people fall in love with it.

At this time, Shen Shuqiu also noticed that the little girl had been peeking at him, and looked back at her with a gentle smile.

Pei Rou's little face suddenly turned red, her eyes were panicked and she hurriedly avoided it.

Shen Shuqiu couldn't help but find it a bit funny, so he didn't say anything and continued to focus on passing the firewood.

Within a moment, the water in the pot began to boil under the high temperature of the flame.

Shen Shuqiu picked up a simple spoon, put some of the hot water into a small basin, and slowly brought it to Pei Rou.

Pei Rou was at a loss as she sat on the edge of the bed, watching Shen Shuqiu busy and now even bringing a basin of hot water in front of her.

"Why haven't you eaten? Is it because you can't bite?"

Shen Shuqiu suddenly saw that the dried meat in Pei Rou's hand was still untouched.

"I ate it, what do you do?"

Pei Rou whispered.

Shen Shuqiu smiled when he heard this. It turned out that this was what the little girl was worried about.

"It's okay, I still have some, eat quickly."

Shen Shuqiu comforted him.

After receiving Shen Shuqiu's words, Pei Rou stuffed the dried meat into her small mouth and chewed it slowly.

After moving with the large army for so long, this was the first time Pei Rou tasted meat.

In the past, when she was hungry, she would chew some tree bark and eat some unknown weeds. When she was thirsty, she would pick up snow from anywhere and pour it into her mouth.

Although this small shed is very simple, for Pei Rou now, it is simply a paradise, a wonderland that only exists in dreams.

At the same time, Pei Rou also had deep doubts in her heart. She didn't understand why the young man in front of her, who looked not much older than her, took her in and why he was so kind to her.

While Pei Rou was deep in thought, she suddenly felt moist warmth coming from her face.

When he came back to his senses, he found that the young man in front of him was holding a handkerchief and gently wiping his face.

The movement of Shen Shuqiu's hands was very gentle, and he gently wiped the frostbite on Pei Rou's face. His heart ached for a while. He didn't know what kind of suffering this little girl had to go through on the road.

"Why...you...are so nice to me."

Suddenly, the girl's trembling voice came to my ears.

Shen Shuqiu raised his eyes and saw that Pei Rou's eyes were filled with mist, and a teardrop slid down the corner of her eyes.

Shen Shuqiu's last move completely shattered the last line of defense in the girl's heart.

Tears burst out of her eyes like a flood. Pei Rou didn't understand that there was anyone in this world other than your parents who would treat you well for no reason.

Pei Rou didn't understand, and Pei Rou couldn't figure it out either. Her pale lips trembled, and she asked the doubts in her heart tremblingly.

"There are so many whys in the world."

Shen Shuqiu wiped away her tears pitifully.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Pei Rou's emotions collapsed and she cried uncontrollably.

In order to survive the erosion of wind and frost along the way, she did not cry but firmly looked for a way out.

She didn't cry when she couldn't eat enough and endured the pain of hunger.

Even in the face of death just now, she did not cry, but chose to accept it calmly.

Until Shen Shuqiu's figure stood in front of her, those simple words contained a great sense of security.

Her heart wavered slightly, but there was still a hint of wariness.

Until Shen Shuqiu's gentle move just now, the warm towel caressed her frozen face.

This warm towel not only caressed her frozen face, but also brought warmth to her cold heart.

Shen Shuqiu didn't speak, his eyes were loving and he kept wiping away her tears.

I don’t know how much has passed

After a while, the little girl seemed a little tired from crying.

"Stop crying, I will be here from now on and I will protect you."

Shen Shuqiu said softly.

Pei Rou's small face was full of tears, her small nose was sobbing and she nodded.

"Then I will be your brother from now on. My name is Shen Shuqiu, and you will be my sister from now on."

Shen Shuqiu gently stroked Pei Rou's little head.

When Pei Rou heard this, her body trembled obviously and she looked at Shen Shuchou blankly.

"Why don't you want to be my sister?"

Seeing her appearance, Shen Shuqiu smiled.

Pei Rou quickly shook her head and said, "No."

Pei Rou never thought that one day she would have a brother in troubled times. Although the two were not related by blood, at this moment it seemed that blood was thicker than water.

"Then call brother and come and listen."

Shen Shuqiu pinched Pei Rou's little face and teased her.

"Brother...brother..."

Pei Rou's voice was squeaky with a hint of shyness.

"So good."

Shen Shuqiu smiled tenderly.

Then he continued to use a towel to lightly apply it on Pei Rou's face.

Except for her face, there were frostbite everywhere on her hands and legs. This was unimaginable torture for a little girl who was only seven years old.

"Does it still hurt?"

Shen Shuqiu said with loving eyes.

Pei Rou's eyes never left Shen Shuqiu. She shook her head slightly and said in a soft voice, "It won't hurt as long as my brother is here."

"It won't hurt anymore. My brother will protect you."

Shen Shuqiu assured her.

Pei Rou didn't speak, but nodded vigorously.

Not a moment later, Shen Shuqiu temporarily wiped the frostbite on Pei Rou's body.

Finally, Shen Shuqiu tidied the bed again to ensure that Pei Rou could stay warm while sleeping on it.

"Would you like to take a nap?"

After finishing all this, Shen Shuqiu looked at her and said.

Pei Rou also seemed a little sleepy, but her eyes were hesitant. There was only one bed in the small shed. What would her brother do if she fell asleep?

"It's okay, don't worry about me, I have a place to sleep."

Shen Shuqiu seemed to see what Pei Rou was worried about and comforted him slightly.

"Brother can sleep with me."

Pei Rou's little face seemed to be blown by the gentle spring breeze, and a blush gradually appeared.

The faint reddish color was like the clouds on the horizon in the morning light, giving her frostbitten face a delicate charm.

Shen Shuqiu laughed dumbly and just comforted: "Be good, sleep first."

Hearing this, Pei Rou said nothing more and carefully and slowly retracted her delicate body into the bed.

She also deliberately crawled inside and stayed close to the edge of the shed, leaving a space on the side for Shen Shuqiu.

Pei Rou's eyes secretly fell on Shen Shuqiu's back, her eyes filled with indescribable emotions.

Everything that happened today seemed like a dream. It turns out that in such troubled times, there will really be people who are nice to you for no reason.

Pei Rou even wondered several times whether what she was experiencing was a dream or reality.

But his gentle eyes and the true emotions revealed told Pei Rou that this was not a dream.

She just watched silently, with a kind of admiration in her eyes.

At this moment, Pei Rou seemed to have forgotten time and everything around her, completely immersed in this world where there was only him and her.

Her eyes sparkled, then she lowered her eyelids slightly, and a smile appeared on her lips.

At this moment, Pei Rou only felt that she was lucky in Shen Shuqiu's words...and it was really good to have the feeling of an elder brother...
