There is a height wall at home, and the height record line drawn in pencil has not been updated for three months.
As Xia Tangyue stood on tiptoe to gesture, Wen Zheng was bending over and passing behind her. The boy's body was growing taller like a bamboo shoot that was growing rapidly. Recently, he even ate by holding the inner pot of the rice cooker. When his Adam's apple rolled up and down as he swallowed, the shadow cast on the wall could completely cover his sister.
"Brother!" Xia Tangyue yelled in annoyance.
Wen Zheng leaned against the door frame leisurely and asked lazily, "What's wrong?"
"Aren't we from the same family? We eat the same food, so why are you so tall!" Xia Tangyue stood in front of Wen Zheng with his hands on his hips, stood on tiptoes, and used his fingers to indicate the height difference between them.
Wen Zheng is a whole head taller than her!
This is so infuriating, how can this be possible!
A pair of warm hands pinched her depressed pouting mouth, Wen Zheng smiled softly and said: "I am your brother, so what if I am taller than you? Not only am I taller than you, my hands are also bigger than yours."
"Okay." Wen Zheng lightly kicked the basketball with his toes, and it bounced up obediently and was caught steadily by him with one hand.
"Brother is going to play ball. Do you want to follow him?"
Xia Tangyue glanced at him sideways and turned away proudly: "No, go by yourself."
Wen Zheng held the basketball at his waist with one hand and naturally put his other hand around Xia Tangyue's shoulders. His knuckles accidentally rubbed the loose hair on her braids: "Okay, then you stay at home and I'll bring you the new mango snow meringue from the shop at the corner of the alley when I come back."
Hearing about bringing delicious food, Xia Tangyue's eyes suddenly lit up, and turned into starry eyes, holding up three fingers: "I want three! No, five!"
"Okay." After touching the top of Xia Tangyue's head again, Wen Zheng went out.
Xia Tangyue set up her drawing board and began her daily practice. The moment the tip of the pen touched the paper, as if being pulled by some invisible force, the charcoal powder naturally spread on the sketch paper. Those lines of varying depths seemed to have their own consciousness, gradually outlining the deep contours of Wen Zheng's eyebrows and eyes.
A light smile spread across her lips.
Her brother is so handsome, the most handsome boy she has ever seen.
Ding Dong——
The doorbell rang and the adults in the house opened the door. The person who came was Xia Tangyue's male classmate who drew on the drawing board. He brought her paint. When he saw her painting, he said in surprise, "Who painted this? The lines are so well drawn."
Xia Tangyue raised his chin proudly: "This is my brother. If you want to learn, I can teach you."
"OK."
When Wen Zheng came back with the cake box, he saw the two little kids leaning against each other. His expression instantly turned cold, and he looked down at his sister: "Oh, you don't go play ball with your brother, but become a teacher to others at home."
The male student felt unhappy when he heard this and quickly found an excuse to leave.
Xia Tangyue pounced on her food like a kitten. Just as her fingertips touched the edge of the pastry bag, Wen Zheng suddenly raised his arm, using his height advantage to prevent her from reaching it, and at the same time forced her into a corner.
"What are you doing!" Xia Tangyue raised his hand to tickle him. Wen Zheng turned a deaf ear to him and looked sullen.
"Is it because of that kid just now that you didn't go to play basketball with your brother?"
Xia Tangyue: “?”
She shook her head honestly, "He said my drawing was good and asked me to teach him."
"real?"
"Of course."
Wen Zheng had a look of suspicion on his face, but when he turned around, he saw his profile on the drawing board. His mood instantly changed from gloomy to cheerful. He handed all the mango pastries in his hand to Xia Tangyue, freeing his hands to take the painting off the easel.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"What's wrong? You drew me, so of course I have the right to take it away."
"Ah, damn Wen Zheng!"
After this incident, Wen Zheng often fantasized that he could have a dimensional pocket like Doraemon. Whenever Xia Tangyue approached a boy to teach him how to draw, he would immediately grab her by the back of the collar and force her back into his pocket like a ball of wool that had caused trouble.
Xia Tangyue found that Wen Zheng was becoming more and more clingy. This time in their high school basketball league, he insisted on asking her to be his cheerleader.
"Okay, sister, brother needs your encouragement."
"With you here, I will kill them all without leaving a single one alive."
"I'll wholesale a whole box of mango ice cream for you, do you want to go?"
After much persuasion, Xia Tangyue reluctantly agreed for the sake of mango ice cream.
On the day of the game, Xia Tangyue came wearing a blue and white cheerleading skirt and holding a cheering banner that she had made overnight. On it was a crooked picture of Wen Zheng dunking drawn with a fluorescent pen, and the four big words "Brother will win" were written next to it. The exclamation mark at the end was drawn so hard that it almost pierced through the paper.
The game was very intense, and Wen Zheng completed a beautiful layup. During the halftime break, he walked straight to his exclusive cheerleading team, lowered his eyes and looked at the Q-version villain, and complained: "Why is it so ugly?"
Xia Tangyue curled his lips, picked up the bottle of mineral water at his feet and handed it to him: "It's because time is too tight and there is no time to refine it."
Seeing that Wen Zheng was covered in sweat, Xia Tangyue raised her toes with a tissue to wipe it for him and encouraged him, "Come on, brother!"
"Yo~"
Seeing this, the teammates came over and teased, "How can you be brothers? You formed a cheerleading team yourself and didn't arrange one for us."
"Go away, this is my sister." Wen Zheng pinched Xia Tangyue's cheek. A female classmate passing by looked at him curiously and said, "Hey, this is your sister. I thought you were in love too early. The last time I saw your phone screensaver, it was a picture of a girl."
The team members exchanged glances, with smiles in their eyes, and walked away noisily.
"Ahem..." Wen Zheng coughed unnaturally, "Brother is continuing the game. Watch carefully to see how he wins."
Xia Tangyue nodded and shouted towards his back: "Come on, brother, you are the best!"
When Wen Zheng was in college, he would accompany Xia Tangyue to play everywhere every time he went home. Therefore, for Xia Tangyue, the thing she looked forward to most was her brother's vacation, which meant that she could go wherever she wanted and eat whatever she wanted.
But after Wen Zheng graduated from University and entered society, he no longer had as much time to spend with her as before, and most of the time he would just give her money directly.
Xia Tangyue saved some of the money, and during the summer vacation when she graduated from high school at the age of 18, she secretly bought a plane ticket and flew to Wen Zheng's city to find where he worked.
Standing downstairs, she first asked Wen Zheng indirectly about his work arrangements for the day, then calculated the time and waited for him to come out.
Her brother told her that he was starting a business and was very busy. She knew she shouldn't disturb him, but she missed him so much that she couldn't bear it. They had been sticking together since they were young, and she couldn't bear to be separated for so long.
Several men in suits came out of the building. The leader was wearing a custom-made black suit with peak lapels. He had an upright posture and steady steps, which made him particularly eye-catching in the crowd. Xia Tangyue noticed him immediately, and walked towards him with a smile, then jumped out from the side.
"elder brother!"
Wen Zheng's surprise spread from his brows to the corners of his lips. He was stunned for a second, then immediately came to his senses and let Xia Tangyue jump into his arms.
"Why are you here?"
"I miss you. I miss you so much!" Xia Tangyue shouted so loudly that everyone around him could hear it.
After dinner, Wen Zheng had to attend a cocktail party. He was reluctant to leave his sister alone at home, but was also worried that she was too young to be taken to the cocktail party, so he was thinking about finding a suitable place to put her first.
As a result, Xia Tangyue took the initiative and pulled his clothes to insist on following him.
The participants were all industry elites, and the content of their conversation was a little difficult for Xia Tangyue to understand. She sipped the fruit wine in her glass while leaning on Wen Zheng's shoulder.
Wen Zheng gently held the back of her head and said helplessly, "Little drunk cat."
Xia Tangyue snuggled into his arms, hugged his arms, and said aggrievedly: "Brother, I miss you so much. You haven't come back to see me for so long. You are so cruel. I don't want you to be my brother anymore."
The person in his arms had blurry eyes, obviously completely consumed by alcohol. Wen Zheng held her in his arms and found a quiet place to sit, then held her on his lap.
"How about punishing your brother to accompany you for the rest of your life?"
Xia Tangyue muttered, "That's about right. I want to be with my brother forever and never be apart."
"Well, never separate."
