Chapter 996 I am the only outsider in this family

Xu Yi was just trying to figure it out when Song Yanming tapped her on the forehead and asked her unhappily, "Who told you that Futian is more capable than me?"

Xu Yi felt pain: "Isn't it?"

Song Yanming: ...

It was a barbecue, but since everyone’s cooking skills were not very good, most of the ingredients were burnt.

Song Yanming had never done outdoor barbecue before. He had only seen it online, and there were some differences between it and the actual practice.

Futian said almost nothing and just kept grilling. On the big grill, only Futian's grilled food looked edible.

Xu Yi was greedy and took a skewer of meat to try it first.

Song Yanming grabbed it and took a bite: "I'm just hungry..."

After a few minutes, Song Yanming handed the skewer to her.

Futian glanced at Song Yanming and took a bite himself.

Beer, juice, barbecue, and everyone lying on the grass looking at the stars.

Futian and Zhou Zhiyin together, Song Yanming and Xu Yi.

The doors of Gu Beicheng and Qin Moyu's tents were closed, so it was impossible to see what was going on inside.

There were other tourists coming from other places to camp and pick mushrooms nearby, and there was some distance between their tents.

The conditions were difficult, but everyone was very interested.

Xu Yi lay in the tent, feeling drowsy. He had eaten too much and his stomach felt a little uncomfortable.

She felt that there was no such word as "feeling full" in her dictionary. In her dictionary, there were only "full" or "hungry".

If you're not careful you'll overeat.

Song Yanming: "Come here, I'll rub it for you."

Xu Yi: "No, I am hugging the earth. Mother Earth is healing me."

Song Yanming lay beside her: "Xu Yi, this doesn't count."

She was lying on her stomach, just able to see him: "What doesn't count?"

"It doesn't count this time. There are too many people this time, so it doesn't count."

Xu Yi lay down: "Brother, you have become so stingy."

When Song Yanming was a child, he would speak coldly to his younger sister Song Yuqian because of her.

But he gets very unhappy when others do this.

Outside, he didn't care much about her, but he couldn't tolerate others not taking her seriously.

His world seems very big, yet very small.

It was probably because it was our first night in the southwest living in a tent. The outdoor environment was uncomfortable, and coupled with our inner excitement, no one slept well.

Xu Yi didn't sleep well either, and was chatting with Song Yanming the whole time.

"I just got here and I don't think you like me."

Song Yanming: "Someone suddenly came to my house, who I like, but I don't know him."

Xu Yi: "So after watching you for a long time, have you started to like me? What's your first impression of me?"

“It’s so dark…”

When Jiang Qing first brought her back, she was still a little black girl with two ponytails.

Xu Yi smiled slyly: "It was because of the sun at that time!"

"And a runny nose."

Xu Yi: "When did you start to like me?"

"do not know."

Even he himself couldn't explain clearly what he felt about Xu Yi.

I didn't like it at first, but I didn't hate it either.

That dark, small, thin sister has clear and bright eyes.

Even though he didn't know her and wasn't familiar with her, she could still call him brother affectionately.

He could see that he was trying very hard to please everyone around him.

He was disdainful. He didn't want to be flattered by her, and even more so didn't want to have anything to do with her. However, because of Jiang Qing, he had to accept the challenge.

Jiang Qing asked him to protect his sister, and from then on, in addition to Song Yuqian, he had to pay attention to another sister.

The other sister is different from Song Yuqian. Song Yuqian is carefree and will not try to please anyone. She cries when she cries and laughs when she laughs. When she is alone, she will be happy and entertain herself.

The other sister is always very attentive to outsiders, but when she is not treated equally by others, she becomes angry and starts to cry.

She always looks conflicted, and has been like this since she was a child. I don't know what she is conflicted about.

She would cry when she was alone, as if someone had bullied her.

He asked: "Did anyone bully you?"

She shook her head: "No."

"Who at home treated you badly?"

"No."

"Then why are you crying?"

Xu Yi always loves to cry. When she cries, it's like a flood and she can't stop crying. But she bites her lips stubbornly to force herself not to cry.

He was not a talkative person and didn't want to teach her anything, so he could only ask her to stop crying.

And she always asked him: "Don't you like me?"

"Do they dislike me?"

"Does Yuqian dislike me?"

He was a little annoyed by her question.

"Why do you care whether others like you or not?"

Xu Yi felt wronged: "I want to be liked by others."

Song Yanming: "Yu Qian never cares whether others like her or not. If someone says they don't like her, she will deliberately make them angry and disgust them."

Jiang Qing always said, Xu Yi is a good boy, Xu Yi is a good boy.

Song Yanming couldn't tell what was so good about her. He felt that Xu Yi was a rebellious person and that her so-called good behavior was just an act, and she acted so well that ordinary people couldn't tell.

Whether they were having a meal or attending some other occasion together, he could always catch Xu Yi's micro-expressions: she was nervous, she was embarrassed but pretending to be strong, she wanted to show off her new dress but not make it obvious.

She politely followed Jiang Qing in calling certain elders "uncle" and "aunt".

He didn't even raise his head, just watched her pretend.

Later, she became bolder and occasionally bullied Song Yuqian. However, Song Yuqian was no match for her and always suffered losses.

He was not interested in the girl's little thoughts, but he couldn't bear to see his sister being wronged.

He began to warn her, both overtly and covertly.

"Don't think that you can bully Yu Qian just because mom is protecting you. She is my sister..."

"Yes, I am the only outsider in this family."

"Of course you are."

Xu Yi cried, and he frowned: "You just keep crying, it's endless, how long can you use this trick?"

-

Song Yanming watched Xu Yi close her eyes and asked her, "You said you hate me. When did you start to hate me?"

Xu Yi hummed: "I forgot too."

Song Yanming couldn't remember when he started to like Xu Yi. He thought it was after he became an adult, but in fact it might have been earlier.

He might have liked her before he realized that he had that kind of thought about Xu Yi.

And Xu Yi couldn't remember what incident made him start to dislike Song Yanming.

As they chatted, Xu Yi took a break and Song Yanming also fell asleep.

The early morning arrived quickly.

At 3:30 in the morning, everyone yawned and went up the mountain dressed neatly.

It rained here a few days ago, so these days are a good time to look for mushrooms.

When they got up, some other tourists and local residents had already gone up the mountain wearing headlamps.

Gu Beicheng asked Song Yanming: "Do we have headlights? Have you prepared them?"

Song Yanming remained silent.

Gu Beicheng: "What are you doing? You haven't prepared anything for this."

Song Yanming threw one to him: "Put it on, idiot!"

"you……"

The group supported each other as they climbed the mountain. It was not a staircase like in a scenic spot, but a difficult mountain road where one would slip on the moss.
