Xiaobao returned home on time, and under normal circumstances, Lu Yuxuan would be back almost soon.
But he waited and waited, the food and anime models he bought were all placed on the table, and he had cleaned up the poop and eggs that the little mantou had pooped in the yard, but Lu Yuxuan didn't come back.
After finally hearing the sound of the yard gate, Xiaobao immediately ran out of the house excitedly, only to find that it was Lu Jiaming who had returned.
"What's the matter?" Lu Jiaming strode over and pinched his tender little face. "You looked so happy when you rushed out, but when you saw it was me, your mouth was pouting like a bottle of oil. Don't you like Fourth Brother anymore?"
"No, no," Xiaobao quickly explained, "I've always liked Fourth Brother!"
"Who do you like the most?" Lu Jiaming teased him deliberately, "Or who ranks first in your heart?"
"Hmm..." This question immediately made Xiaobao feel troubled. He bit his lower lip and said, "I like every brother very much. There is no first or second."
"Is that so..." Lu Jiaming hummed as he sat on the sofa, "I think Mingyang's position in your heart is almost higher than ours. You two are so close to each other, you're almost like conjoined twins."
Xiaobao had a confused look on his face, but now he suddenly smelled a scent of vinegar.
It feels so sour.
Xiaobao understood immediately, and he rushed over and snuggled into his arms with a grin, arching his head and saying in a soft voice: "Brother Yangyang is my best friend. He is as important to me as my brothers."
"Besides, you guys are all too busy. When you're not at home, I can only ask Brother Yangyang to accompany me."
Lu Jiaming hugged the little guy in his arms and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I was just teasing you."
"Then who were you rushing out to greet just now?"
"I thought it was Fifth Brother who came back," Xiaobao said.
Lu Jiaming said, "Oh, it's Yuxuan. I thought you were going to meet Mingyang..."
He suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence, then realized: "Yuxuan hasn't come back yet?"
"Yeah," Xiaobao nodded, and then looked at the time, "Didn't Fifth Brother finish class at three o'clock? It's been more than two hours now, and I sent him a message but he didn't reply."
"I'll give him a call."
As Lu Jiaming spoke, he took out his cell phone, dialed the number, and heard the phone beeping for a long time, but no one answered.
"Strange, he usually doesn't ignore the phone..."
"Fourth brother, what should we do?" Xiaobao couldn't help but worry, "Why don't we go out and look for him?"
"Don't worry," Lu Jiaming soothed, "I'll tell my brother to ask the teacher first to see if Yuxuan has left."
When it comes to his brother's affairs, Lu Zixiao always acts quickly. Xiaobao and Lu Jiaming waited for a few minutes before Lu Zixiao called back.
"...Okay, big brother, I understand."
Xiao Bao stared at Lu Jiaming eagerly, and only after they finished talking did he anxiously ask, "Fourth brother, what's going on?"
"Brother said Yuxuan has extra classes today and will be back later."
Lu Jiaming frowned and sat back on the sofa, a look of dissatisfaction on his face. "I'm really impressed with this teacher. If he wants to add a class, he should let the child tell his family. He just put away the phone and left it alone. But he was talking enthusiastically, and we were so anxious at home. Damn it!"
"Forget it, Fourth Brother, don't be angry. Maybe the teacher was too engrossed in the lecture and forgot about it." Xiao Bao coaxed him softly, "Anyway, it's good that Fifth Brother is okay."
It was already past eight in the evening when Lu Yuxuan came back. Lu Zixiao poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "Yuxuan, you're back just in time. Change your clothes, wash your hands, and get ready for dinner."
"I know." Lu Yuxuan said in a muffled voice and walked into the living room dejectedly.
"Fifth brother!"
Xiaobao ran to him happily, and helped him take his schoolbag, looking at him with bright eyes: "Fifth brother, thank you for your hard work."
"Today, my brother Yangyang and I went out and bought you a lot of delicious food, as well as your favorite anime models. We put them all in the house."
"Ah..." Lu Yuxuan replied blankly, "Thank you, Xiaobao, I... I'll take a look later."
"Why do we have to wait a while to see it?" Xiao Bao asked in confusion, "Fifth brother, don't you want to go into the house to change clothes? You can see it right away."
"Oh...okay," Lu Yuxuan said blankly again, "Then I'll watch it now..."
The more Xiaobao looked at him, the more certain he was that he was worried about something. He was just about to follow him in, but before he could take two steps, Lu Yuxuan quickly closed and locked the door.
The fifth brother who used to dare to walk his bird in broad daylight now has to lock the door even when changing clothes???
Xiaobao was surprised and puzzled. He could only stand at the door and wait for him to come out...
When Lu Yuxuan came out of the house again, he grinned at Xiaobao, "I saw those things, Xiaobao, they are indeed what I like. You are worthy of being my brother, you are so good to me!"
"Then, Fifth Brother, are you happier?" Xiaobao asked.
"I, I've always been very happy," Lu Yuxuan scratched his head and laughed. "Well... it's mainly because my teacher is too strict. I've been very tired these past few days, so I always have a sullen face. It's okay, it's okay..."
Xiaobao knew he was pretending as soon as he heard it, his smile and voice were forced.
He curled his lips and was thinking about what to say next when he heard Lu Ziyi's voice calling them over for dinner.
I don’t know if Lu Yuxuan ran away because he felt guilty or was too hungry. Xiaobao had to hold back what he wanted to say and followed him to the dining table and sat down.
