"Sister?"
Just as the two siblings were embracing warmly at their doorstep, silently promising in their hearts to always be each other's safe harbor, a curious little head poked out and inquired,
"So it's big brother who's back! Are you still gonna hit Melanie today?"
???
Along with this loaded question, Leon felt the person in his arms suddenly freeze, and unusually clear teeth-grinding sounds echoed in his ears.
"Hit! Definitely hit!"
Releasing her grip around Leon's waist, the frail girl stomped her foot hard and gritted her teeth angrily,
"It doesn't matter if you come back, even if Mom and Dad came back today, she won't escape this beating!"
?!?!!?
What?! Is it that serious?
Seeing Anna, who rarely mentioned their parents, so mad she was speaking nonsense, Leon quickly hugged his angrily frowning sister tighter, trying to persuade her earnestly,
"Stop, stop, don't rush to hit her, education comes first, education comes first!"
