"Sister..." This time Hai Shen was really on the verge of tears, "Sister, I was wrong! Can you forgive me, give me a chance to make amends?"
"There's no such thing as forgiving or not forgiving." An'an analyzed matter-of-factly, "This matter has little to do with you, you just need to choose which side you're on."
"I choose, I choose to be on sister's side." Hai Shen said hastily, almost raising his hand to swear.
An'an gave him an approving look, "I used to think you were pretty stupid, but now it seems you have a bit of common sense."
"Thank you for the praise, sister." Hai Shen finally showed his first smile since he came in, having prepared himself mentally for various outcomes before coming, including being kicked out or being cold-shouldered.
He never expected that his aunt would be so kind to him, and his sister was just like she was when they were younger. Especially the look she gave him, bluntly expressing the sentiment 'Are you really this stupid?'
