Yan Wanqing and Yan Hongzhao sat quietly by the seaside, waiting, surrounded only by the sound of the waves and silence.
"If you're tired, go to sleep first," Yan Wanqing said sympathetically, noticing the dark circles under Hongzhao's eyes.
She must have been keeping everything bottled up inside; it must have been painful.
Yan Hongzhao leaned on her shoulder, feeling reassured, and without rejecting the offer, closed her eyes.
"Sis, call me if you need anything," she said before slipping straight into a dream.
Little pig.
Yan Wanqing smiled gently. She lowered her shoulder to make it more comfortable for her younger sister to sleep, then took her into her arms, just as when they were children.
Big sisters are like mothers.
With their mother gone, she needed to take care of her younger brothers and sisters.
Gazing at the distant Mingyue, wrapped in mists and dreams, Yan Wanqing squinted her eyes.
