After everyone returned to the luxurious villa, Mu Liuyun and her second sister Lin Fangyi walked lightly to the kitchen and took on the responsibility of preparing dinner.

Meanwhile, the eldest sister, Lin Hongmei, led Zhang Rui to the study and began busily dealing with the mountain of documents.

Lin Jianglu, with a background in early childhood education, seems to have a natural affinity for children. Sure enough, she quickly started playing hide-and-seek with the lively and adorable Lulu, their laughter echoing from the room.

The remaining three useless sisters—the third sister Lin Yurou, the fourth sister Lin Xuelan, and the fifth sister Lin Shilan—sat quietly around the spacious dining table.

They also have an important task.

Waiting for dinner.

Simply waiting wouldn't do, so Lin Yurou broke the silence first, lowering her voice to ask, "My two younger sisters, what do you think of our new little brother?"

Lin Xuelan smiled slightly and replied softly, "I think he's a good person."

After speaking, the two of them turned their gazes to Lin Shilan, who was standing to the side, waiting for her to give her opinion.

Now that Mu Liuyun was no longer present, Lin Shilan was no longer reserved. She raised her voice slightly and said excitedly, "I think he's so cute!"

As she spoke, a glint of light flickered in her eyes, as if a small flame of desire was burning brightly within them.

Many people don't know that Lin Shilan, who seems gentle and charming, has another mysterious identity besides being a master of traditional Chinese painting.

Shi Tu Zi, a popular comic blogger on a well-known social media platform, is best known for drawing long-form comics. Her unique style has attracted a large following, and she has even drawn "A Cat," a comic that is still talked about by many Chinese comic fans.

As a cartoonist, the moment she met Mu Liuyun, she had already conceived a wonderful story for the next installment, the theme of which was the story of the strong older sister and the weak young boy.

This is much more appealing than cute boys and lolis, after all, the potential of male-female characters is limitless!

"Ha, this is really boring."

A soft sigh escaped Lin Yurou's lips, her tone filled with disappointment.

"Isn't there anyone who dares to stand up and loudly say, 'I don't acknowledge him as my brother'?!"

These words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

At this moment, Lin Xuelan still had a faint smile on her delicate face, but that smile was as elusive as looking at flowers through a fog, making it difficult to fathom her true thoughts.

She glanced slightly at the woman beside her and asked softly, "Oh? Third Sister, don't you like Xiaoyun?"

Lin Yurou, who was called the third sister, quickly waved her hand and explained, "No, not at all. This little brother is so cute~ It's just that I think the current scene is too warm and peaceful, without even a little bit of excitement. Who would like this kind of plot?"

As she spoke, she gently shook her head, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied with the current situation.

"After Xiaoyun was kidnapped by Lao Deng, why didn't our parents find an adopted son to take her place?"

"Because Dad and Mom are normal people."

Seeing this, Lin Shilan, who had been silent all along, immediately seized the rare opportunity and began to scold her sister: "Sister, you should read less of those boring novels and pay more attention to the little things in real life."

She, who was usually best at housework and a bully at home, finally found an excuse to teach her older sister a lesson, and naturally wouldn't let it go easily.

"You'd be better off spending more time reading my comics."

Hearing Lin Shilan's words, Lin Yurou curled her lip in disdain and retorted, "Tch, who wants to read your cat-loving, childless girl comics? I have no interest at all!"

And so, two of the three "useless" duo started arguing back and forth, neither willing to give in. Lin Xuelan, the remaining member, watched them with interest, saying nothing more.

For a moment, the room was filled with laughter and chatter.

While they were locked in a fierce battle, Mu Liuyun and Lin Fangyi had already swiftly prepared a sumptuous dinner.

The kitchen countertop is filled with various fresh ingredients and chopped side dishes that have been prepared in advance. With just a little cooking and seasoning, these delicious dishes can be quickly served on the table.

Before long, the family gathered together, and Mu Liuyun and Lin Fangyi set the sumptuous dinner on the table.

As for Zhang Rui, he had already quietly slipped out of his house with a bowl of white rice and entered the security room at the gate.

As the last dish, which looked and smelled delicious, was served, Mu Liuyun carefully carried it to the table, then gently wiped the beads of sweat that had seeped from her forehead. Only then did she feel relieved and prepare to sit down and rest.

But just then, Lin Yurou, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly stood up. With a smile on her face, she clapped first and said loudly, "Welcome home, little brother!"

Immediately afterwards, the other older sisters also responded, picking up their cups one by one and shouting in unison, "Welcome, little brother!"

"...welcome."

Although one person's voice was a little soft and a beat late, it didn't matter.

For a moment, the entire restaurant was filled with a cheerful and warm atmosphere.

Hearing her sisters' enthusiastic welcome, Mu Liuyun couldn't help but feel flattered.

He subconsciously reached out and scratched his head, his originally fair face instantly turning bright red, as cute and charming as a ripe apple.

At this moment, Mu Liuyun had no idea how to respond to her sisters' kindness. She could only stand there blankly, grinning foolishly. Her appearance was truly hilarious.
