The car fell into silence for a while, and it was only after a long time that Lu Yuxuan spoke to break the silence.
"Um... Third brother, are all the eldest brother and the others home? What delicious food did they make?"
"Big brother and Ze brother are at home, and second brother and the others are out," Lu Jiayang chuckled. "As for the food... I don't know about the other things, but I know there will definitely be cabbage meatball soup and sweet and sour pork."
Xia Nan was slightly stunned and said in disbelief: "This...isn't this my favorite food?"
"Yes," Shen Qingyue said with a smile, "Knowing that you would come over for dinner, Zixiao and Lin Ze went out to buy some more vegetables, and also chopped up some of the braised chili peppers that Yuxuan likes to eat."
"Ah?!" Lu Yuxuan's eyes widened. "Why did you chop off my favorite dishes? I won't accept it!"
"If you don't agree, just hold it in." Lu Jiayang rolled his eyes. "I have an exam this afternoon. No spicy food is allowed at noon. This will prevent you from snorting in the exam room and disturbing others' answers."
Lu Yuxuan feigned anger and snorted heavily. Then he raised his arm and hooked it around Xia Nan's neck. He said angrily, "I seriously doubt that you are their biological brother now! I specially ordered the dishes last night, and you canceled them just like that. It's totally unfair!"
Although his tone sounded unfriendly, the moment Xia Nan looked up and looked at him, she saw the tenderness and smile hidden in his eyes.
Xia Nan felt warm in her heart, and then raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "You usually eat a lot of dishes, you are the biggest eater in the family, this time it's my turn to enjoy it, just accept your fate."
"Okay," Lu Yuxuan also laughed, "If you don't show off two bowls of rice today, you will be sorry for my selfless dedication."
Xia Nan stared straight into his star-like eyes, and some emotions that had been suppressed in her heart were actually showing signs of stirring at this moment.
He swallowed, quickly broke free from Lu Yuxuan's arms, and replied, "...I understand."
The car continued to move forward. When it reached the main road not far from home, Shen Qingyue suddenly slowed down and then slowly stopped by the side of the road.
"Wait for me," Shen Qingyue said, "I'll be back soon."
After saying that, he pushed open the car door and walked out, walking forward hurriedly.
"Where are you going, Brother Qingyue?" Xiaobao asked curiously, "Is there something you need to do?"
Lu Jiayang looked at his back without saying a word, with a smile on his face, and said softly: "No, but I know what he is going to do"
The three people in the back row were confused. They looked at each other and then stared at Shen Qingyue until he walked into a store.
"Roast duck?" Xiaobao blinked his eyes and suddenly realized, "I remember! When we passed by here on our way here, you said that this roast duck smelled delicious, brother."
"Yeah," Lu Jiayang stared at the store with a smile, "so he went to buy it."
Sure enough, when Shen Qingyue came back, he was carrying two exquisite large bags in his hands.
"I bought two, enough for our lunch."
As Shen Qingyue spoke, he turned around and saw the smile on Lu Jiayang's face. He couldn't help but touch his face lightly with his fingers and said softly, "Eat more, it's really delicious."
"Okay," Lu Jiayang responded happily.
"Brother Qingyue, you're so doting on me," Xiaobao said softly, "I'm a little envious of my third brother."
"Little guy, you don't need to envy others, you know?" Shen Qingyue said with a smile, "Because all of us will always love you, without exception."
Xiaobao thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.
So the little guy said with a smile: "If you put it that way, I'm a little envious of myself. I have so many brothers who love me, and I also have my brothers' husbands and wives who love me!"
Lu Yuxuan laughed out loud and patted his head: "Of course, our family is getting bigger and bigger, so there will be more and more people to pamper you."
Xia Nan silently watched them laughing and joking, secretly thinking: I wonder if I will ever have the chance to truly become a member of this family...
In order to prevent Xia's father from causing trouble again, Lu Yuxuan strongly requested that Xia Nan stay at home during the two days of the college entrance examination so that they could act together.
Xia Nan had originally thought that he could just come over for lunch at noon, as he had an exam in the afternoon and the lunch break was very important. But it didn't matter in the evening, as he wasn't afraid of his father pestering him.
But in the end, he couldn't withstand the pincer attack from Lu Yuxuan and Xiaobao. Faced with his brothers' rational analysis and patient persuasion, he couldn't finally say "I'm sorry to trouble you."
But what's strange is that since Lu Jiayang and Shen Qingyue helped stop Xia's father that day, this man has not appeared for many days.
Although Xia Nan was worried, he still breathed a sigh of relief.
However, about half a month after the college entrance examination, he met this person again.
Quite unexpected.
With only one day left before the college entrance examination results were due, Xia Nan returned home as usual, opened the door and shouted, "Mom, I'm back!"
"Nannan," Xia's mother's voice came from the living room, "Come here for a moment."
"Okay, right away." Xia Nan quickly changed into slippers, "What's the matter, Mom?"
His voice stopped abruptly, and the next second he met Xia's father's oppressive gaze.
"...Why are you here?" Xia Nan reacted and felt a surge of anger rushing to his head. "You are not welcome in our house! Get out!"
"Nannan! Calm down first," Xia's mother urged quickly, "Your father...he has something serious to discuss with you this time."
"No matter what it is, I can't discuss it with him!" Xia Nan glared at Father Xia fiercely, "Get out!"
