Chapter 596: Always easy to coax.

He also doesn't like people crying.

Hearing him say that, Gu Siyu immediately perked up again and happily nodded in agreement, "Okay!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Helian Jiao with a smug look on his face.

See? My brother specially asked Aunt Wu to buy strawberries for her, just for her alone!

However, if I'm in a good mood, I might give her some.

Helian Jiao, however, felt no provocation or boasting whatsoever; as long as she didn't cry, that was enough.

After happily finishing the remaining strawberries, Gu Siyu tugged at Gu Tingyun's sleeve and said coquettishly, "Brother, can you explain the problems to me? These are all difficult problems that I can't solve."

Gu Tingyun then explained it to her in a very simple and easy-to-understand way, and Gu Siyu understood it immediately.

She looked at him with starry eyes and admiration: "Brother, you're so smart!"

Her brother is the smartest person in the world!

"Me too!" Helian Jiao, sitting next to her, retorted defiantly.

She's smart too!

Gu Siyu said with a mix of smugness and sourness, "You were taught by my brother!"

My sweetheart can spend all her time with her brother, so even if she's a bit slow, her brother will teach her to be smart.

She wanted to attend the same school as her brother, but after making a fuss, it was no use. Instead, she was violently suppressed and her little bottom was beaten black and blue.

Fortunately, her brother will be going back to the capital to attend high school next year, and then she will be able to get rid of her little tagalong and be with her brother all by herself.

Just thinking about it makes me so happy!

He Lianjiao was not happy to hear this, and emphasized with her chubby little face, "I learned it myself!"

She's so smart, she'll learn it at a glance, why would she need Gu Tingyun to teach her!

Gu Siyu's attitude softened considerably when she realized that her precious child wouldn't be able to stay with her brother next year: "Okay, okay! You're very smart too."

And she had to admit that her baby was indeed a little smarter than her, but only a little!

Helian Jiao was always easy to coax. She became happy again after hearing what she wanted to hear, and her face lit up with a smile.

Seeing that the two had made up again, Grandpa Gu was very pleased. He stood up from the sofa and said, "You see, I'm going back to my room to sleep. Xiao Wu, you should go and rest too."

He had absolutely no interest in cartoons.

"Okay," Aunt Wu replied with a smile.

Helian Jiao waved to them and said in her sweet voice, "Goodnight, Grandpa Gu and Aunt Wu."

Gu Tingyun said calmly, "Grandpa, Aunt Wu, goodnight."

"Goodnight, Grandpa! Goodnight, Aunt Wu!" Gu Siyu said, sitting at the coffee table, writing her homework furiously without looking up.

The old man's tone was also very gentle: "Good night."

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs. With Tingyun there, he wasn't worried that the children would see him late.

Tingyun has always been the most calm and composed person, and that is his pride.

A little while later, Gu Siyu finished her homework, tidied it up and put it aside, then sat on the sofa to watch cartoons with her baby.

When they saw something funny, the two of them burst into laughter together.

Although Gu Tingyun wasn't interested in cartoons either, she kept watching them so that she could have something in common with her baby.

The three of them watched until 9:30. Gu Tingyun checked the time and gently reminded them, "Sweetie, Siyu, it's 9:30. It's time to go to sleep."

"Okay." Gu Siyu stood up obediently.

She listened to her brother the most, afraid that she might do something wrong and displease him.

Helian Jiao, however, was engrossed in watching and couldn't hear a word Gu Tingyun said.
