After their conversation that day, Xiaobao clearly felt that his brothers were starting to get busy.
Lu Zixiao truly lived up to the excellent quality of "a gentleman's word is as good as gold". He went to work as soon as he said he would, and he did not miss his tutoring classes.
It's just that he is too busy going out early and coming back late every day. Although they are still financially well off and not starving, he now goes home as if he is going back to a hotel. He sleeps as soon as he comes back and leaves as soon as he wakes up.
Fortunately, Xiaobao now has a mobile phone. When Lu Zixiao is not busy, he will send him messages or video call him, which can be regarded as a small compensation for the regret of not being able to accompany him every day.
Lu Jiayang has not been idle since that day. He ran to several places for three consecutive days and used his saved pocket money to rent a dance studio and recording studio for two months.
He would practice every day during the day, and even record a video and send it to Xiaobao, asking the little guy to supervise him to check in every day, and he would buy various delicious foods on the way back.
In fact, Xiaobao knew that many of them were not on his way, but he did not expose them. Every day he would look forward to and welcome Lu Jiayang home with a smile.
Since Lu Zixiao left early in the morning and came back late at night, he had no idea that Lu Jiayang was practicing. The two brothers had perfectly staggered their times.
According to Lu Ziyi, this is a good thing. Sometimes there is no need to worry about such well-intentioned concealment. Maybe the result will be unexpectedly good.
During this period, Xiaobao followed Lu Ziyi to the library to read books and learn to read, but he could not understand any of the books his second brother read, and he would feel sleepy after reading them for more than a second.
He would also go to the gym with Lu Jiaming to watch him and his friends play basketball, but every time he would be surrounded and loved like a little national treasure. He would go empty-handed and come back with a bunch of snacks.
In addition, he also went to the video game arcade with Lu Yuxuan. Because he liked to catch dolls, Fifth Brother and his friends caught dolls for the whole afternoon. When they went home, they pushed all the dolls back in their strollers because they couldn't fit them all.
This happy and fulfilling life continued until early August. The sun seemed to become brighter, and even the cicadas around the yard became louder, often making people feel restless due to the heat.
Their air conditioner is installed in the living room. Although the whole house can feel the coolness when this central air conditioner is turned on, in this hot and dry weather, that little coolness seems to disappear in an instant.
"It's too hot. I started sweating as soon as I entered the house."
Lu Yuxuan rushed out of the bedroom decisively, sat on the sofa side by side with Xiaobao, and said weakly: "I want to know Houyi's contact information now, and discuss with him whether we can shoot down the remaining sun."
Xiao Bao laughed and coaxed him: "Okay, Brother Wu, you'll feel cooler if you blow on it for a while. And I checked the weather forecast, it might rain today."
"This damn weather is so confusing," Lu Yuxuan murmured, "Sometimes it rains suddenly on a sunny day, and sometimes it's cloudy for several days without raining."
"Indeed," Xiaobao closed the storybook and looked out the window, "but it should rain today. It's starting to be windy now... I wonder if my brothers brought umbrellas."
Lu Yuxuan took out his phone and tapped the screen a few times. "Send them a message in the group to remind them."
"My eldest brother is at work, my second brother is in the library, my third brother is practicing dancing, and I don't know where my fourth brother went...Xiaobao, we are like left-behind children."
Xiao Bao was amused by his plaintive tone and said softly, "But Fifth Brother, don't you think it's most comfortable to eat watermelon at home with the air conditioner on on such a hot day? Although the brothers have things to do, they are all very hard-working."
"That's right," Lu Yuxuan chuckled, "We are both enjoying a good life."
The rain came very quickly, and the sun seemed to have hidden away in an instant. The sky was clear one second, and suddenly it was covered with dark clouds the next. Then strong winds blew, announcing that a rainstorm was coming.
Xiaobao and Lu Yuxuan looked at each other, stood up at the same time tacitly, rushed to the yard to bring all the washed and dried clothes into the house, and moved the small stool and some items under the eaves.
After completing these tasks, they were about to return to the house when the gate of the yard was pushed open. The exquisite hairstyle that Lu Jiaming had before going out was gone, and now it was blown into a classic slicked back hair by the strong wind.
Lu Yuxuan stood at the door of the living room and watched him walk towards her against the wind. He laughed heartily and said, "Fourth brother, thank goodness your face can stand the test. Your hair now looks like a bunch of weeds that have been pulled out by the roots."
"Go, go, go back inside!"
Lu Jiaming pushed him slightly impatiently, then gently pulled Xiaobao in and closed the door against the wind.
"Fourth brother, where have you been?" Xiaobao asked as he brought him a comb. "Why do you look unhappy?"
"Oh, don't mention it." Lu Jiaming combed his hair casually and ruffled it with his hands. "I went to help my friend deal with his relationship problems today."
"And then?" Xiaobao asked, "Didn't it handle it well?"
"No," Lu Jiaming sighed, "I was halfway through when I realized my friend was actually an idiot."
"What do you mean?" Xiaobao and Lu Yuxuan spoke at the same time.
Lu Jiaming explained: "Although I know that this kind of premature love in high school may not end in a result, I feel that as a man, since I have confessed my feelings, I must be responsible if I want to date a girl. I can't just play around."
"But my friend was pretty nice at first, but then he let himself go and started having fun. He didn't do a single thing he promised his girlfriend, and when she broke up with him, he got upset. Isn't that stupid?"
