"Brother… Is this really alright?" Meilin peeked at Liam who was busily cooking a feast for the both of them using their one-top stove.
"Of course, it is. Both of us are still growing and we need a lot of nutrients."
It was only a small studio apartment so she could clearly see her brother humming and sweating while he cooked a variety of dishes with a smile on his face.
The smell was so delicious that she was not even able to focus on her homework. Since when did her brother learn to cook like this?
With almost a visible drool on her face, the little girl stood up and walked over to Liam. "Brother, what about school? You haven't gone to school for the last two days?"
"School ah? Ha Ha Ha."
Liam wanted to laugh out loud and say how useless the educational institutions were about to become, but instead, he just ruffled his sister's head with a smile.
"Your brother is dumb. So I will count on Mei Mei to study well and help me in the future."
"Ahh… Ah… Don't say that brother." The little girl pouted, puffing her cheeks.
The two siblings then joked around and chatted for a while before digging into the feast. It had been a while since Liam was able to enjoy meals like this.
He lived like a mongrel in his last life. He was weak to provide for his sister and in the end, he was also not able to save her when terrible things happened.
He would never let all those things repeat this time around. A cold glint appeared and then disappeared, his lips curling into a smile again.
