"That’s good."
Captain Kang nodded, his eyes full of relief.
...
The moonlight outside the window was as cool as water. Ming Han lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He couldn’t help but softly call to his brother Min Rui, "Brother, can you come down and sleep?"
Min Rui asked, "What for?"
"I want to talk to you." Ming Han sat up and was ready to climb up the top bunk. At this moment, Min Rui lifted his cotton blanket, "Alright, lie down, I’ll come down and sleep with you."
Upon hearing this, Ming Han grinned, silently lay back down.
"Speak."
Min Rui gently came down to the lower bunk and lay down beside Ming Han, "I don’t want to hear nonsense."
"Brother, you’re really something. I haven’t even opened my mouth, and you assume I’m going to speak nonsense."
Ming Han turned towards his brother Min Rui, lay on his side, blinked his eyes, and softly said, "Grandma and Grandpa are going abroad to see Mom tomorrow. Will Dad go over later?"
"Get to the point."
Min Rui’s tone wasn’t great.
"Don’t you want to go see Mom?" Ming Han asked his brother Min Rui, but hadn’t heard a response for a while. He couldn’t help but speak on his own, "I want to go, I miss Mom very much, it’s been more than half a year since we’ve seen her. I wish I could fly to Mom right now."
Min Rui: "Don’t you want to go to school?"
"I can take leave!" Ming Han’s voice had a bit of nasal sound. He said, "Someone in our class started rumors saying Mom ran away with someone. I was really angry when I heard it. I said Mom went abroad to study, but some classmates didn’t believe me. I really wanted to beat them up at that time."
"Are you stupid?"
Min Rui’s eyes were full of disdain, but in the dim room light, Ming Han couldn’t see him. He said, "Many people in our compound know Mom went abroad to study. Besides, Mom calls us every fortnight, and we receive letters every month, with photos inside. Don’t you know all this?"
"I know."
