Shu Li silently retracted her hands and feet into the quilt, and rubbed her eyes that had not yet been fully opened.
What's going on?
With a "pop" sound, the bedroom door was knocked open by a sedan chair.
Shu Li gasped when she saw the dazzling bright red.
The joy over there had not completely stopped, and a whimpering female voice came from the sedan chair.
"You are a noble daughter of the heavenly family. There are so many young talents for you to choose from. Why do you choose to fight with me..."
Shu Li said in her heart: I don't.
The other party paused for a moment, then spoke again: "Now he is surrounded by tigers and wolves. Although you don't say it, I know that you also want to kill him!"
The other party's voice suddenly became shrill, and the red and sharp nails pierced the sedan curtain, flying towards Shu Li's eyes!
Frightened, Shu Li stood up suddenly...
Then he fell off the bed!
Now I am really awake.
She pinched her sore neck and looked towards the living room.
She didn't close the door at all when she came in to rest. Was it because of this that she had such a terrible dream?
Shu Li picked up her phone, added Hua Rong's friends based on her remaining memory, and then went out to wash up.
She planned to meet her uncle.
Although, after Shu Luo disappeared, this was something she had to do every week.
Huarong didn't send a reply until before going out, so Shuli put the matter behind her.
After his eldest aunt passed away due to illness a few years ago, his uncle raised his son Shu Luo alone. As a result, there was no news of his son a few years ago.
In the past few years, Shu Li has watched her uncle change from a healthy person to a completely mentally unstable person, as if he has lost his soul.
Although Shuli's parents settled in other cities because of work, they fully supported Shuli when she wanted to go to college here.
The official statement is that the uncle is asked to take care of Shu Li, but everyone knows that it is to prevent the uncle from losing all social contact.
It was already nine o'clock in the morning when Shu Li arrived downstairs. Because it was not the usual scheduled time, she was not sure whether her uncle was still resting.
Shu Li opened the door with the key assigned to her. There was no sound in the tidy room.
"Uncle, I'm here!"
Shu Li put down the fruit in her hand and climbed to the second floor quietly.
"Uncle?" She knocked on the door of the master bedroom with her fingers, not too hard, but the door suddenly opened.
Although it was very rude, Shu Li really looked in subconsciously.
The master bedroom still maintained its original layout. The uncle trapped himself in the family relationship of the past and could not get out at all.
Shu Li thought for a while and walked in anyway.
After bypassing the partition wall that blocked the view, there was no uncle on the bed inside.
However, there is a complete set of exquisite and luxurious phoenix crowns and harems!
The more Shu Li looked at it, the more familiar it became, and she always felt like she had seen it somewhere before.
The whole set of clothes is as red as fire, extremely bright.
The phoenix wrapped around its neck outlined with gold and silver threads is lifelike, and even the matching secondary patterns are vivid.
Shu Li was fascinated by it, and stretched out her hands towards the suit of clothes uncontrollably.
"That was embroidered by your aunt's mother!"
A weak middle-aged male voice interrupted her movements, and because she spoke in a hurry, she coughed several times.
"Uncle!" Shu Li woke up, and although she was surprised, she was afraid of worrying her elders, so she didn't say anything about what was out of her control.
"I just said it looked familiar. I remember seeing it from the wedding photos of you and my aunt."
"Yes." The uncle looked at the suit with nostalgia in his eyes: "When you were a child, you always wanted to cut off the fish on it. Your aunt couldn't bear to refuse you, and she couldn't bear to part with the clothes. She got red-eyed every time and asked for it. You go back and coax her to say no."
This is the first time Shu Li has heard of this matter.
"I forgot..." Shu Li was a little sad: "I don't even remember a lot of meaningful things."
"It doesn't matter, there will always be someone who remembers something." The uncle patted her shoulder: "Let's go downstairs to talk, otherwise I won't be able to stop the little girl from trying to cut the fish again."
"Uncle!" Hearing the other party's smile, Shu Li was willing to be a tease.
She walked behind and closed the door. At that moment, she felt as if her heart had skipped a beat.
But that momentary feeling was fleeting, and I couldn’t tell why.
Shu Li didn't have anything to do until she sat down in the living room, so she pressed the button first.
"Why did you come here today? Aren't you here for an internship?" The uncle unceremoniously took out the tea set from under the coffee table and pushed it in front of Shu Li.
But it's obvious that Shuli has long been used to it.
She smoothly pulled out the small bench next to the sofa and started to prepare tea while replying to her uncle's words.
"I was still too arrogant. I didn't learn anything, so I just ran errands and worked as a laborer."
"I told you not to worry. You are young and inexperienced. This is for sure."
"Yes, I understand." Shu Li responded, and then spoke quickly: "Actually, I received an email from my brother."
The uncle's hand stopped for a moment: "What did you say?"
After the left and right words were spoken, Shu Li said it happily.
"My email is my work email, so I can't take it with me, but I confirmed it was from my brother."
She always paid attention to her uncle's reaction while trying to close her own loopholes: "My brother said that he was entangled in trouble and would come back when it was resolved."
"You also know, how dare I trouble my brother with something that can make him disappear for so long..."
The uncle still stared at Shu Li silently, unable to hide the excitement in his eyes, and he was shaking when he spoke: "Are you really sure it's him?"
"Yeah! I promise, it's absolutely true!"
The uncle's hands were trembling. He looked particularly excited, but he was cursing Shu Luo in a series of words.
"Little bastard, he didn't contact me and then came to find you again! Can I eat him?"
Shu Li silently made tea, thinking that the current situation was indeed quite similar.
The uncle talked to himself for a long time, Shuli only answered twice when he really had to open his mouth.
"Ahem, uncle, drink tea, drink tea!"
The older man became more energetic as he talked, and Shu Li actually felt happy too.
At least, there is real hope.
The uncle took the tea, but seemed to have remembered something: "No, don't drink it yet! That brat has hidden a lot of good things. Before he comes back, hurry up and get two more!"
Shu Li smiled helplessly: "Uncle, how old I am, I no longer covet my brother's things..."
Five minutes later, Shu Li was at the door of the storage room on the third floor, her eyes shining!
Frankly speaking, Shu Luo is not the only one of her cousins, there are many more.
But what makes Shu Li older than my brother since childhood is not only because Shu Luo has taken great care of Shu Li since she was a child, but also because most of their preferences are the same.
So, hehehe, if you are not greedy or something, it does not exist at all...
