After hanging up the phone, Xiaobao and Lu Yuxuan sat on the sofa in a daze, and it took them a long time to come back to their senses.
"Will Li Mingyang's idea work?" Lu Yuxuan sighed. "I've always felt that his brain wasn't original. When I talked to him, it felt like he had a 37-year-old brain in a 7-year-old body."
"Now look what's happening! He's even brave enough to confront his parents directly. Damn! What a warrior!"
"Brother Yangyang isn't someone who acts impulsively. Since he said that, I feel like he must have a plan."
Xiaobao frowned, his little brain working rapidly, "Didn't Brother Yangyang just say that he still needed to collect evidence? Then at least he won't alert the enemy before the exam. He's such a cautious person, he should be more careful."
"Besides, I think even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs. Even if we fail in the end, uncle and auntie won't really hurt Brother Yangyang..."
At this point the little guy paused for a moment and said, "By the way, Fifth Brother, I just made a recording. When the brothers come back tonight, we will tell them about this. If something really happens, the older brothers will definitely have a better solution than us."
Lu Yuxuan was stunned when he heard this, and nodded in response: "Okay, okay"
"Xiaobao, I've noticed that after spending more time with Li Mingyang, your way of speaking is becoming more and more like his."
"Huh?" Xiaobao looked at him, "Really? I don't feel anything."
"Really, you've become more stable." Lu Yuxuan said sincerely, "But this makes it difficult for me to deal with it."
"Why?" Xiaobao was puzzled.
"Because you make me look stupid," Lu Yuxuan said.
Xiaobao couldn't help laughing out loud.
Seeing that he finally smiled and looked a little relaxed, Lu Yuxuan felt a little relieved and sat quietly with him on the sofa.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yuxuan realized that the little guy next to him had been motionless, with his eyes closed as if he was asleep.
"Xiaobao" Lu Yuxuan touched his arm, "Xiaobao?"
"Hmm," Xiaobao slowly opened his eyes, his voice a little muffled, "What's wrong, Fifth Brother?"
"Are you sleepy?" Lu Yuxuan asked, "If you are, go inside and take a nap."
"No, I'm not sleepy." Xiao Bao shook his head, but covered his chest with one hand. "I just... feel a little nervous. That bad feeling is coming back."
"Ah? What should I do? Are you feeling unwell? Should I go to the hospital?"
Lu Yuxuan was even more panicked than him. He stood up and sat down again, hugged him and then let go, as if he was going to take out his cell phone to call 120 the next second.
"Fifth brother, don't worry, it's not a physical problem." Xiaobao grabbed his clothes and pulled him back. "I just feel uneasy. I have a hunch... It's related to Grandpa Li."
Lu Yuxuan suddenly opened his eyes wide, his face filled with horror: "Could it be that Grandpa Li already knows about Li Mingyang's parents? It was exposed so quickly? Oh my god! That kid must have turned from a warrior into a martyr!"
"No, no, Fifth Brother, don't talk nonsense." Xiao Bao quickly stopped him, then stood up and walked out, "I'm going to Grandpa Li's house to see him."
"I'll go with you!" Lu Yuxuan followed closely behind.
The two of them almost trotted to Grandpa Li's door. Xiaobao knocked on the door and shouted, "Grandpa Li, Grandma Li, are you home?"
After knocking several times, the door was finally opened from the inside.
Grandma Li looked at them both in confusion. "What's going on? You two look so anxious and worried. What happened?"
Xiaobao stared at Grandma Li's expression, which was indeed very confused, without any anxiety or worry. It was obvious that she didn't know about Li Mingyang's parents.
But he still asked, "Grandma Li, where is Grandpa Li? Is he home too?"
"He, he's out and hasn't come back yet," Grandma Li said slowly, "What do you want from him?"
"Then where did Grandpa Li go?" Lu Yuxuan asked.
"He went to that department store, which used to be called a flea market," said Grandma Li. "He loved to take a walk there when he had nothing to do."
"Do you have something urgent to discuss with him?"
Xiaobao paused, he hadn't figured out what to say yet.
Lu Yuxuan answered first, "It's not urgent, Grandma Li. Grandpa Li kept saying he wanted to play chess with us a few days ago. I just learned a little bit. I happened to have nothing to do today, so I thought I would come over and play with him for a while. I didn't expect he wasn't home yet."
Xiaobao's eyes lit up and he silently gave him a thumbs up.
Who says my fifth brother is stupid? His brain is very useful at critical moments!
"So it's chess," Grandma Li said with a smile, "You guys don't have to spoil him too much. He's just old and has nothing to do. Just focus on your own things. I'll get him some birds someday so he can walk them around."
"It's okay, Grandma Li. We haven't started school yet, so we have time." Lu Yuxuan grinned and said, "Why don't you call Grandpa Li and ask him what time he'll be back. We'll wait for him."
"Okay, okay, let me ask." Grandma Li smiled and touched his head. "This old man knows that someone is playing chess with him. I guess he's so happy that he doesn't even need his crutches anymore and can just walk."
Lu Yuxuan laughed out loud, turned his head and winked at Xiaobao inconspicuously.
The loud volume that the elderly mobile phone is most proud of came in handy at this moment. Although Grandma Li did not turn on the hands-free mode, they could still hear Grandpa Li's voice clearly on the other side.
Just as Grandma Li said, when Grandpa Li heard that Lu Yuxuan wanted to play chess with him, he immediately laughed out loud and even said proudly that he could beat Lu Yuxuan ten times.
