Regarding the words of the girl with long dark hair in the night.
"You're right."
The young girl agreed.
Then, the young girl suddenly seemed to remember something and turned her gaze towards the girl with long dark hair.
"Come to think of it, Xiaoli Sister has never told me about it."
"What?"
"About how Xiaoli Sister and the adult brother met."
"Ah..."
Upon being asked so suddenly, the girl with long dark hair showed a rare expression of surprise. But she quickly regained her composure.
She smiled slightly at the young girl.
"Why? Do you want to know? At a time like this?"
Then, the young girl looked up at the night sky, but her two eyes didn't focus. Instead, they seemed to be trying to recall something.
"I remember Xiaoli Sister mentioned before that they met about three years ago. After all, I first met Xiaoli Sister around that time."
"Hmm... So it has been three years already?"
The girl with long dark hair sighed.
"What's wrong? Xiaoli Sister, are you reminiscing about your past life? Is that what you're saying? Maybe the adult brother ruined Xiaoli Sister's life by doing whatever he wanted, but I don't want Xiaoli Sister to leave me now that he's already gone from my life."
The young girl said this and tightly held the hand of the girl with long dark hair.
To this, the girl with long dark hair just smiled slightly and placed her hand on the young girl's head, gently stroking it.
"No, that's not going to happen. How could I leave Mari? Besides, Xiaoli probably said that because she didn't know. How could I possibly long for that kind of life?"
A trace of disgust and hatred flashed through her eyes.
But it quickly disappeared, replaced by a completely different smile.
"If we're talking about longing, it would only be for the time when I met your brother. After all, my life changed from that moment. I had already lost all hope in the world, but your brother's actions forcefully changed me. Yes... that's right. It's all your brother's responsibility, so he has to take responsibility."
Halfway through, the girl with long dark hair seemed to suddenly remember something and said something a bit capricious.
"Adult Brother should know that."
The young girl immediately vouched for him, but the girl with long dark hair just rubbed her head with a look of frustration and helplessness.
"Ah... Even though I think so too, the critical issue is not that."
"?"
The young girl expressed a puzzled expression.
"Mari should also know, right? Although it's not appropriate to say it in front of the sister involved, that guy is just a dim-witted idiot! He's simply a blockhead!"
The girl with long dark hair spoke with an air of resentment, as if throwing a tantrum.
"That's indeed undeniable..."
Although she wanted to defend the adult brother, Mari knew very well that he was indeed as the girl with long dark hair said, in short, a blockhead.
"And he's someone who dotes on his little sister very much. Although I'm not very clear about it, I can imagine."
As she said that, the girl with long dark hair looked towards the young girl, and the young girl spoke slowly with a slightly sad and nostalgic tone.
"Because since we were young, my parents abandoned both me and the adult brother. So the adult brother has always been concerned about me. No matter what I want or what wishes I have, the adult brother would always make them come true for me."
"Marie, you've had poor health since you were young, haven't you?"
The words of the young girl were filled with sadness.
"Well...I only know that it was when I was very young, I don't remember the specific details, and then a few days later, my older brother also had a problem, and in the end, both my brother and I were abandoned by our parents."
