P.S.: OK, I updated 4 words today. In addition to the normal 3-word update, I updated 5 words more than usual, which is an extra update that I should have done. But it's a late compensation. Now, I'm going to sleep. I'll talk to you when I wake up.
Book 1: Chapter 121 The Clever Remule
Before long, Han Fei slowly walked out from the heavy and solemn main door of the cathedral.
The midday sun was so intense it was almost blinding, and he instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes.
In the halo of light filtering through her fingers, Remuel's vibrant voice rang out like leaping musical notes:
"This way, this way!"
Following the sound, the sunlight outlined Remi Le's radiant smile, a smile that seemed even more dazzling than the blazing sun overhead.
Han Fei strode forward, walking towards the two sisters in the dazzling white light.
As soon as they approached, Remy's voice, brimming with undisguised curiosity, rang out: "What is the old man saying to you so mysteriously?"
"Just some small things," Han Fei said casually.
At this moment, Remy's gentle voice softly interjected, "Okay, let's go home first."
She paused slightly, her gaze sweeping over the two people in front of her, and added, "Don't forget, tonight is a pretty important day."
"Too."
Remi Le placed her hands behind her head, the bright smile on her face fading slightly, revealing a hint of worry about the future. "How about we have a party tonight? Everyone will be going their separate ways tomorrow, so at least let's say goodbye happily."
"I agree."
Remi'an nodded, but her gaze involuntarily drifted toward Han Fei.
Their gazes briefly met in mid-air.
Remien clearly caught the question in Han Fei's eyes—"And what about you?"
Remien knew that Han Fei was waiting for her reply, to respond to the invitation from that day.
To say yes or no?
Remian's heart leaned more towards the former. Her friends were all setting off, sailing towards the vast and unknown lands beyond Laterano, to begin new chapters in their lives.
Amidst this wave, the longing in her heart also surged—to follow Han Fei to appreciate unseen scenery and experience different journeys, which in itself was captivating.
However, when Remuel's stunning red hair came into view, the tiny flame that had just ignited in Remuel's heart was instantly extinguished, leaving only cold embers, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over it.
—What will happen to her if I leave?
This silent question weighed heavily on my heart.
Remi'an subconsciously pursed her lips and almost hastily turned her head away, not daring to look Han Fei in the eye again.
She is afraid.
I was afraid that under the watchful eyes that held such expectation, I wouldn't be able to control myself and would blurt out the word "yes".
"What's wrong, sis?"
Remuel had turned around at some point. She was still walking backwards with light steps, her hands still casually behind her head, but her bright eyes keenly caught her sister's slightly strange expression.
"You seem a bit strange today?"
"No, it's nothing." Remien shook her head subconsciously, then realized that the gesture was somewhat of a cover-up.
She quickly composed herself, adopting the authority of an older sister, and changed the subject with a hint of worry in her voice: "Xiao Le, watch where you're going, be careful not to fall."
"Oh, don't worry, sis, I'm not a little... Waaah—!"
Before she could even utter the word "child," Remuel's heel suddenly tripped over a low, slightly protruding curb at the edge of the sidewalk! With a gasp, she lost her balance and stumbled backward!
In that split second—
A black-gloved hand shot out with lightning speed and precisely grabbed Remuel's wrist! A powerful force followed, and she was violently pulled forward!
"ah!"
In a dizzying moment, Remuel felt herself crash heavily into a strong and powerful embrace, and a familiar, faint scent instantly enveloped her.
The sudden close contact made her body stiffen instantly. Before her brain could react, she heard her sister's low gasp, still tinged with shock.
"Xiao Le!"
Remy quickly stepped forward, looking at her sister who was lying in Han Fei's arms in a disheveled state. She looked at her sister with a mixture of amusement and helplessness, and scolded her, "I told you to watch where you're going."
"hey-hey……"
Remy Le chuckled sheepishly as she propped herself up from Han Fei's embrace, her cheeks slightly flushed. She tried her best to maintain a nonchalant demeanor. "An accident! Purely an accident!"
"People safe is good."
Han Fei released his grip at the opportune moment, took a half step back, and said in a gentle but cautionary voice, "You'd better pay more attention when you walk next time."
Looking at this all-too-familiar scene of playful fighting—his younger sister's boisterous energy and Han Fei's steady and reliable actions.
The softest string in Remi's heart was quietly plucked.
If only things could stay like this forever...
A warm yet unreal thought flashed through her mind. But she knew it was just wishful thinking. Han Fei's steps would eventually lead him to distant places.
"Sister?"
Remuel frowned slightly, leaned closer, and carefully examined Remuel's face. Her voice, usually lighthearted, held a rare seriousness and concern. "You're acting really strange today. Is something on your mind?"
"Indeed."
This time, Remian didn't try to hide anything and said frankly, "After all, we're about to part ways."
"uh-huh?"
Remy Leigh knew her older sister all too well, and besides, they shared a common feeling.
She could clearly sense that her older sister's emotions at that moment were conflicted and troubled, rather than the sorrow of parting.
What could be something that would cause my sister such distress and embarrassment, yet she's too ashamed to talk about it?
In that instant, Remuel's little mind raced, and the ever-witty girl immediately found a direction.
—The thing that makes my sister so conflicted and embarrassed to talk about must be related to me, and most likely related to Han Fei!
Continuing to dig deeper in this direction, a bold conjecture, as a thunderclap, suddenly exploded in Remuel's mind:
Wait, could it be that she wants to leave with Han Fei, but is afraid I'll be lonely, so she doesn't dare to agree?
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. In a short moment, Remuel guessed Remuel's thoughts by sensing the emotions through empathy.
A strong, almost tangible sense of reluctance and bittersweetness instantly gripped Remuel's heart. Of course, she didn't want to be separated from her sister. All her friends were leaving, and if her sister left too, she would be too lonely alone in Laterano.
However, at the same time this reluctance arose, the incredibly clear and almost soul-piercing "entanglement" coming from the other end of the empathy was like a searchlight piercing through the thick fog, revealing a fact to Remüller with absolute certainty.
—My sister actually wanted to go! She longed to embark on the journey, but she suppressed this desire because she was worried about me.
Sensing her sister's emotions, Remula instinctively wanted to tell her not to worry about her, and that she could live well even if she stayed in Laterano alone.
But before she could say those words, an even bolder and more rebellious idea surfaced in Remuel's mind.
"You can all leave, so why can't I? Why should I stay in Laterano? I could have left with you all!"
Once the idea was conceived, it grew wildly, like a tender sprout breaking through the soil.
Suddenly, Remi felt a sense of clarity and relief wash over her. All the gloom, reluctance, and self-pity were replaced by an almost wild surge of excitement and clarity, causing the corners of her mouth to involuntarily turn up.
Volume 1: Chapter 122 Adventure
The minor incident quickly subsided, but the idea in Remuel's mind had already taken root and sprouted.
After everyone returned to the apartment, Remuel seized an opportunity, and the dog sneaked up to Han Fei's side, whispering:
"Han Fei, did you say something to my older sister behind my back?"
"Ok?"
Han Fei was somewhat surprised, thinking to himself, "You know this?"
Just as if she had read Han Fei's mind, Remule gave a thumbs up and said, "Don't you know who I am? I'm Remule! I'm the one who understands my older sister better than anyone else in the world. How could I possibly hide her conflicted and twisted look from her?"
The next second, she nudged Han Fei with her elbow mischievously and said, "So, are you really trying to steal my older sister away?"
"What do you mean by 'kidnapping'? That sounds awful." Han Fei rolled his eyes. "That's called 'invitation,' you know what an invitation is?"
"I see."
Remy said this, then poked Han Fei's arm and said, "So you really wanted to secretly run away with my older sister behind my back, and even kept it from me? That's too much!"
"You weren't there at the time, so how could I tell you?" Han Fei spread his hands, looking completely innocent.
“You could mention it to me privately, right?” Remy insisted.
"Uh, it seems like we didn't have a chance to whisper sweet nothings today." Han Fei scratched his head. "So, you sneaked up to me like a dog just for this?"
"not quite."
As she spoke, Remy secretly glanced towards the kitchen.
At that moment, Remian and the girls were busy in the kitchen, while Texas sat expressionlessly on the living room sofa.
The latter noticed Remuel's little movements, but she didn't say anything, only giving her an inquiring look—what are you doing?
"Shh——"
Remi Lele put her index finger to her lips, winked at Texas, then tugged at Han Fei's sleeve and pulled him to a corner. "Want me to help you?"
"Ok?"
Han Fei made a questioning nasal sound and asked, "What are you going to do?"
“I’ll help you run away with my older sister.” Remule said seriously. “My older sister is really torn. She wants to go with you, but she’s afraid I’ll be lonely if I stay in Laterano alone. So I might as well give her a push.”
Han Fei suddenly had a bad feeling: "So?"
"so--"
With her hands on her hips and her eyes crinkling into crescents, Remuel said matter-of-factly, "Why don't I just go too?"
"Tomorrow, when she comes to see you off, I'll pack my things. She'll be incredibly surprised. Then I'll get on your helicopter, and she'll definitely follow. Then you can make your helicopter leave quickly. We'll do it first and ask for permission later!"
Whether Remy was surprised or not after hearing this, Han Fei was stunned.
"what?"
So surprised by the audacity of the idea that Han Fei unconsciously raised his voice a few decibels.
"Shh!"
Remy immediately gestured for silence, glancing nervously towards the kitchen, and said, "Don't be so loud. My older sister definitely won't agree. If she finds out, we're all doomed!"
Han Fei was somewhat amused and exasperated, and said, "You knew that, yet you still did it?"
To be honest, if he could seduce both sisters at once, he would definitely be willing, but the premise is that they have to be willing.
The twisted melon is not sweet!
Besides, this should have been a happy occasion, and Han Fei didn't want to make things worse and upset everyone.
After all, Remule's plan was far too rebellious and risky.
"It's okay, really, you can trust me."
Remy patted her barely noticeable chest and said confidently, "My older sister actually really wanted to go with you. I just gave her a push. I didn't force her to do anything."
"No, what I mean is, if she knew you came along too, she'd definitely be angry, after all, you're a student," Han Fei said, scratching his head.
"It's out of the way."
Remi Le puffed out her chest and said nonchalantly, "I've already learned all that knowledge. It was easy. All I'm missing now is my graduation certificate. Once I get the certificate, I won't be a student anymore."
As she spoke, Remuel's expression was rather cute—"I'm super awesome!"
Han Fei, however, had no time to pay attention to Remule's cuteness. He sighed and said, "I think you should tell your sister first."
It would be great if he could abduct Remy and Remy, but he really didn't want the two sisters to have any unpleasantness because of this.
This is no small matter; the old approach of acting first and informing later simply won't work.
“If I tell her, she definitely won’t agree.” Remule frowned. “She’ll definitely make me stay in Laterano.”
Finally, she said seriously, "At that time, in order to consider my feelings, she probably won't go with you. You should think it through."
Upon hearing this, Han Fei hesitated for a moment, but quickly regained his resolve and said, "Even so, I think it's better than you acting first and informing me later."
