"Eight!"
He smiled. "From today on, I'm your full brother, born to the same mother and father. Your name will be Li Yi."
A Luo stared at his smile, momentarily entranced and forgetting to answer. He tapped her nose. "Have you remembered?"
A Luo nodded repeatedly. After a moment, she raised her childish voice and asked, "Which Yi?"
"The Yi in 'I will never betray the longing between us.'"
"What's your name, then?"
He smiled gently and patted her head. "Li Shan. Shan, as in 'goodness grows with time.'"
