Alice's tone was cold, but powerful: 'If you hate that man, take back your tears for me and one day crush him hard, instead of crying for my life here!'
Evie didn't know if she understood, she just stared blankly at her.
Alice roughly wiped away her tears and said, "If I see you cry again in the future, you'll eat one less meal
The little girl had tender skin and her face turned red from her rough rubbing. She pursed her lips in grievance, wrapped her arms around Alice's neck, buried her face in her hair, and kept calling out to her sister as if seeking comfort.
Alice let her hold her for a while before frowning and asking, "Did you hear what I said?
Evie wiped her face. Maybe she had just been startled and stuttered, "I... I won't cry
It's better like that, "Alice sneered coldly," Don't let me see you cry, little useless
In the blink of an eye, New Year's Eve is approaching.
Recently, the ancient town has been very lively, and even the green alley is very noisy. Alice's house behind the house is a small river, opposite to an ancient mansion with black tiles and white walls, hanging red lanterns. In recent days, there have been black-roofed boats swaying on the river, shouting incessantly.
Children love to be lively and spend almost the whole day lying on the windowsill watching those boats. There are boats selling snacks, and when they see a very cute little girl by the windowsill, she looks straight at them with big, watery eyes that make people love them.
Some vendors took a few packets of snacks from the boat. Luckily, the boat was not far from the window, and the vendors handed the snacks to Evie.
Evie happily accepted, but then distressed, "But Uncle, I don't have any money
Little girl, this is a gift from Uncle, no need to pay, "the vendor chuckled.
Evie smiled with crescent-shaped eyes and said, "Thank you, Uncle
The vendor gave her several packets of sticky rice snacks, which were soft and white on the outside and covered in a layer of red bean sauce on the inside. Evie loves sticky snacks the most.
She walked into the room and Alice had just woken up. She sat in front of the mirror with sleepy eyes and saw Evie. She casually asked, "Where did you come from?
Evie was afraid Alice wouldn't let her eat, so she pursed her lips and whispered, "An uncle gave it to me
Look at you like that, "Alice sneered cautiously at her," I'm not going to compete with you
She lazily yawned and said, "Come here and comb my hair
These days, Alice unexpectedly discovered that Evie's hair combing technique is pretty good. Her hair is very long and occasionally tangles when she wakes up from sleep. She doesn't have the patience to comb her hair in strands, usually resorting to violent combing, causing one hair to fall out after another.
But Evie is the complete opposite to her. She combs her hair very carefully, and the child's strength is not strong. Just as the strength is good, Alice makes the best use of everything and asks her to do it for her every day.
Evie put down her snacks, washed her hands, and slowly smoothed them with a comb. She didn't say anything and remained quiet.
Alice's previously closed eyes suddenly opened, and she asked, "Does my neck still hurt?
Evie thought for a moment and shook her head. Alice would bite her neck every one or two days. Except for the first few times when it hurt, she didn't feel anything afterward, but it still felt a bit itchy.
Then there was a small bite mark on her neck that couldn't be erased. Alice didn't let her apply the medicine, saying it would smell bad.
The back of the neck only feels slightly painful when in the shower, but not at other times.
Evie went from initial fear to now reluctantly accepting. After all, a child who is always bitten on the neck inexplicably cannot accept it to some extent. If it weren't for Alice not liking her crying, Evie wouldn't have developed the slight numbness she has now.
After combing her hair, Alice crouched down and looked at the marks on her back neck, feeling inexplicably happy.
She just likes to leave marks on her own bloodline, but the ugly trace is Alice's unknown selfishness.
It's strange to say that when she finds a suitable blood source, she usually draws blood once a month, but the child in front of her has a magical charm that makes her unable to wait that long.
As long as you don't drink for a few days, your whole body will be filled with intense desires, as if you have been afflicted with uncontrollable desires.
Alice didn't think much about it, thinking it was a sequela of not drinking blood for too long, and she had lived for hundreds of years. The older she got, the more she needed blood.
Normal
What would your sister's face look like if she saw it
Alice muttered to herself, as if anticipating something, triggering an inexplicable smile and saying, "It's probably going to be fun."
Sister, what did you say? "Evie's scalp felt numb from her touch.
It's nothing, "Alice stood up." Go play by yourself, don't bother me
Oh. "Evie obediently went to the yard to see the flowers. Alice's yard had planted many flowers, stacked in clusters, which looked particularly beautiful.
Alice likes to sleep on the lounge chair in the yard. Most of the time, Alice doesn't care about Evie. As long as she doesn't go out or make a fuss in the room, she can do whatever she wants.
Evie picked a white plum in her hand, held the white flowers on the branch in her palm, and quietly walked over to Alice, intending to play a prank.
Anyway, she's asleep. Evie naively thought.
Alice lay with her eyes closed under a clump of flowers, wearing a black turtleneck sweater that accentuated her fair skin. The sparse winter sunshine fell on her face, fading the sharpness of her expression.
Evie sometimes thinks that this fierce woman is very beautiful, even though some sisters on TV are not as good-looking as her.
She stared at Alice, hesitating for a moment. Alice had already opened her eyes, her narrow eyes like a winter icicle, cool and translucent. "What are you doing?
Evie felt guilty and quickly hid the flowers on her back.
Her clumsy little gesture couldn't hide it from Alice's eyes. 'What's hidden in your hand?'
Evie fell silent.
Alice took her hand from behind and opened it, revealing some white flowers and wrinkles inside.
She sneered and pinched her face, 'What do you want? Hmm?'
She has great strength, neither light nor heavy. Evie's face turned red from being pinched by her, and she screamed, "Ah, it hurts so much
Subconsciously, her eyes wanted to shed rational tears, but Alice's tone turned cold, and she said, "Try crying."
Evie didn't want to cry at first. She had been a bit devastated by Alice these days, and tears were forcibly forbidden by her. Her hidden stubbornness emerged, staring at her silently.
Alice thought she was funny, squeezed her a few more times, released her, threw those white flowers at her neck maliciously, and slid down her neck. Her face was tight, "You are too idle, aren't you? Go and run around the yard for me five times."
The yard is not big, and running five laps won't be very tiring. This is Alice's newly invented way of teasing her, making her run laps at all times.
Alice simply felt that Evie's physical fitness was too weak. She couldn't bear to see her spoiled little girl.
