After a good while, feeling that Yiyi had calmed down considerably, Xu Qingqiu gently patted her shoulder and said, "Alright, alright. Go call home now, talk to your little brother. Later, we can buy a phone for him, and then you two can video call each other, okay?"
Yiyi looked up at Xu Qingqiu with a pitiful expression and said, "I'm sorry, Sister Qiu. I... I just couldn't hold it in."
"It's fine, it's fine. Isn't this normal? My little sister is all grown up now and doesn't miss me anymore. She doesn't call me now, and my older brother... he hasn't contacted me in a long time either..."
In reality, it wasn't that her older brother didn't contact her. Since she had left home, he had constantly been blaming himself. Especially when she sent the first sum of money home, her older brother hid in his room and cried all night long. It wasn't that he didn't want to reach out; he just felt he couldn't face his little sister.
