Novel Bin Chapter 11: Dearest Little Sister
Chapter 11: Dearest Little Sister
Ryan was so busy taking all kinds of food that he didn't realize there was something wrong. The killing aura immediately filled Irina's residence's dining room. Realizing this gaze, Ryan immediately looked at his own hands. Oh no! It turned out he took the wrong fruit that belonged to Irina!
"Cough, Cough ... Sorry I ate too fast so I didn't realize what I was doing. Ahhh, why do I feel full? I'll get some fresh air first!" Ryan scampered away, afraid of Irina's scolding that was ready to hit him.
Besides, the killing aura that was coming out of Irina was already very thick so if he didn't run he might actually be killed by his wife!
Actually, Ryan was looking for reasons to get out of the house. He did not talk about his problems in front of Irina. Yesterday, Irina's wedding invitation really appealed to him so he went along with his wife's arrangement. And now he felt confused. When all this was over, would he go away or stay with Irina for the rest of his life? This confused him.
When she saw Ryan's disappearing figure, Irina immediately frowned. The reason she was so patient with Ryan's lewd act was last night's incident that melted her heart a little.
Irina realized that her life had been saved by Ryan. At least there was goodness in Ryan, she thought. Irina knew that their relationship was only made possible by their money-based agreement. Even if that sounded wrong, what was so wrong with having a good relationship between them? At least Irina wanted a quiet life.
......
After getting out of the house, Ryan immediately went around the residential area. This housing belonged to the elite so the side of the road and the existing plants were very clean and beautiful. He started wishing Irina's money later and thought that he would buy one of the houses in this estate.
The house owned by Irina was close to a garden. There was a beautiful artificial lake in the park. With toys for children and other facilities, this park was very comfortable to visit.
When he was about to approach the park, Ryan had a guest who was hiding in the dark.
"Ohhh, Elizabeth? Wow, it turns out that the darkness of last night made me misjudge your figure. It turns out that you have a beautiful body too!" Of course this was said by Ryan as a joke.
Elizabeth replied without expression, "Miss Christa has agreed to see you. I will take you to her place."
'Uh oh all women like to chase me. Is my handsome face legendary in this country?'
This luckily went unspoken because if it came to be said, nobody knew what Elizabeth's reaction would be. For Christa's problem, Ryan felt that today was his lucky day because he really needed her help. He was just worried if Christa still remembered him.
......
Elizabeth and Ryan walked about 2 minutes to a remote place. There was a car park on the side of the road. Seeing two figures approaching, the person in the car immediately got down.
The girl had the image of a professor with her wavy hair, serious face and striking round glasses.
Ryan was a little shocked when he saw the woman but immediately calmed down again. He had not seen this person's figure in a long time.
"Are you Christa?" Ryan had known this person for a long time but he had forgotten Christa's face and he was worried that Christa did not know him. Elizabeth just stood quietly at the side watching the two of them.
"Yes, and you are?" Christa narrowed her eyes while glaring at Ryan, trying to remember who it was.𝒩ew st𝒐ries at n𝒐velbin(.)co𝒎
Christa's arrival today was also questionable. She is a member of the Alkonost Ordo whose identity was very protected. Christa rarely even left the headquarters because of her job as the organization's doctor. Even so, sometimes there were urgent situations that she needed to deal with as soon as possible. Today Christa looked a little curious and confused. Who was the person who asked to meet her and how could this person understand that she was a member of the ordo?
Ryan did not answer Christa's question, instead he took out a necklace and gave it to Christa.
"If you look inside this necklace, you will understand."
This necklace looked unremarkable, but on the inside of the necklace there was an 'R&C' engraving. It might look casual but Christa looked at it with a serious expression.
Christa looked carefully at the necklace, and in the end she took out the necklace she was wearing. The same shape with the same carving. He was definitely that person!
"You are...Ryan?" Christa said hesitantly.
"Why? You forgot your brother's face even though you haven't seen him in 10 years?" When Ryan said this, Christa was already running to hug him. Ryan was seen smiling to himself when he felt the softness of his younger sister's chest.
When Christa hugged him tightly, Ryan immediately inhaled her scent. For a moment, Ryan stopped thinking and enjoyed this moment.
"Brother Ryan! It is really you! Where have you been lately? Why didn't you give me any news? You know Christa has worked so hard to find you out! I've been looking everywhere you are still not there and it turns out you are in Crimea and you still don't give me any news about you!" Christa said all these things with teary eyes. Every word she said broke Ryan's heart.
Ryan then thought that time really flew. He had been traveling for 10 years and separated from his younger sister. It turned out that during those years, his younger sister had been thinking about him.
"Calm yourself first. Besides, Grandpa didn't tell you, huh? I've always got him updated on how and where I am. If not from grandfather, how could I know that you have become a member of the Alkonost Ordo." Thanks to his grandfather, Ryan found out that Christa worked in one of the secret organizations in this country.
Ryan knew where he came from. He would occasionally inform his family about his situation and get local information in return. When he finally returned to Crimea for the first time, he didn't immediately return to his hometown because he didn't know how to deal with the 'family' he had left behind.
Ryan was an orphan who knew nothing about his parents. He spent his childhood raised by several grandparents who lived at the foot of the mountain. Sometimes he recalled how the third grandfather carried a bamboo basket on his back and picked medicinal plants in the mountains every day. Every time his grandfather returned home, he didn't forget to bring dinner like a rabbit and also the fruits he picked during the trip. He also remembered the fourth grandfather teaching him a series of cryptic numbers every day. Uniquely, until now he still didn't know the use of these numbers.
Ryan left the mountain at the age of 15. With his young age, he hoped to see the vast world outside, armed with the knowledge given to him by his grandparents.
"Really? How could he forget something important, when I come home I'll pull their beards one by one!" Christa said all these things with an annoyed tone and a sullen face.
"Haha The second Grandpa has never felt your anger at all. When we were little, the third grandpa always complained to the second grandpa that he regrets raising you. He originally wanted to raise me because of my calm and good nature. Your brother from childhood was already great, right?" Ryan said jokingly.
Ryan and Christa began to get trapped in their fond memories of their past. Indeed, they were adopted children who had been raised by several grandparents at the foot of the mountain, but their childhood memories made them closer than the real siblings.
Ryan was raised by two grandparents while Christa had the other two grandparents.
Perhaps this arrangement had already been made by those elders when they saw the talents of these two brats. The two grandfathers who raised Ryan were experts in martial arts, while the grandparents who raised Christa were experts in medicine.
"He must be crazy if he really chose you! He's a lazy grandpa and doesn't want to do housework at all, moreover, he can't be like you either. Do you want to eat insects and die of hunger? Since I was little, I was doing all of the housework and cooking every day and even then I was still told to buy cigarettes and more" Christa kept grumbling without stopping.
"Okay okay, I already understand that you are the best child!" Ryan was forced to give in. He did not think that his younger sister would sometimes act like a child.
Elizabeth watching them from the side like a fool with her mouth hanging open. Miss Christa was known as the ice queen in the Alkonost Ordo because of her cold demeanor. Now, she looked like a teenage girl who spoiled her boyfriend and talked non-stop.
"Hahaha, finally brother realized! By the way, why did you call me? Is there anything I can help or do you want me to accompany you back to the mountain?" Christa must have realized that her brother could not possibly want to meet just to exchange greetings, there must be something he needed from her.
"I probably won't be home for a while."
