Hearing Lin Xiaoxiao's words, Chu Wuyan was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and gave a wry smile.
"Your attitude is really good."
People are driven by profit, but few can stay true to their principles.
Chu Wuyi mercilessly exposed him, "Third Brother, you're just afraid of being looked down upon by Dad."
Chu Wuyan's expression changed, and he glared at him.
His gaze held no intimidation whatsoever; Chu Wuyi was not afraid of him at all.
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "As expected, men spend their whole lives seeking their father's approval."
Although Chu Wuyan is the third son in the Chu family, he is Chu Weinian's eldest son. As the eldest son, he certainly bears more pressure than others.
She looked at Chu Wuyan and said, "I can tell you admire Minister Chu a lot."
"fine."
Chu Wuyan's ears turned a shade redder, but he maintained a normal expression on his face.
The three chatted, and Chu Wuyi, with his cheerful personality, occasionally told a joke, making Lin Xiaoxiao laugh heartily and forget about time.
It wasn't until Luo Qingming returned that they realized it was almost noon.
"Sister?" Luo Qingming left before dawn and didn't return until noon, carrying meat and vegetables she had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Passing through the central hall, you'll see three people sitting at a stone table in the courtyard.
He knew Chu Wuyan, but this was the first time he had met Chu Wuyi, so he took a few more glances at him.
"You must be Sister Lin's younger brother. My name is Chu Wuyi." Chu Wuyi ran over as if they were old friends, his eyes shining as he looked at Luo Qingming's face.
My goodness, she looks just like a girl.
It's so beautiful.
Chu Wuyi was a little shorter than Luo Qingming. Luo Qingming lowered her eyes slightly and glanced at him indifferently, "Hello."
Wow~ Her voice is so nice too.
Chu Wuyi's eyes lit up even more. "Hello, hello, can I call you Brother A-Ming?"
"Whatever you want." Luo Qingming wasn't used to his enthusiasm. She put the ingredients in the kitchen, came out, and went straight to Lin Xiaoxiao to sit down. She took a piece of sponge cake and gave it to Lin Xiaoxiao. "Sister, eat."
Lin Xiaoxiao took it. "It's still warm. Where did you buy it?"
The sponge cake was very soft, and Lin Xiaoxiao loved to eat it.
Luo Qingming said, "Supply and Marketing Cooperative."
Actually, he bought it on the black market. He happened to run into an old lady who had just steamed egg custard at home and was selling it.
Knowing that Lin Xiaoxiao liked to eat soft and fluffy things, I bought some.
Lin Xiaoxiao asked Luo Qingming to give some to Chu Wuyan and Chu Wuyi, and the two of them ate a piece.
"Brother A-Ming, do you have time tomorrow? How about I take you to see the Great Wall and Tiananmen Square?" Chu Wuyi moved slowly to Luo Qingming's side.
Luo Qingming looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, and when Lin Xiaoxiao reached out her hand, he lowered his head.
Lin Xiao ruffled his hair and said, "I was worried you'd be bored, so I found you a playmate."
"Go if you want to, don't go if you don't want to."
Luo Qingming shook her head. "I'm not bored."
But he didn't refuse, saying, "Go ahead, I've never been to the Great Wall before."
Chu Wuyi was overjoyed and jumped up, "Okay, it's decided then. I'll make the arrangements tomorrow."
Hehe, going out with such a good-looking person makes me feel so happy, like my heart is blooming.
Lin Xiaoxiao invited the two to stay for lunch. When Luo Qingming went to the kitchen to cook, Chu Wuyi eagerly followed, saying he wanted to help out.
“That Xiao Yi…” Chu Wuyan sighed, “He’s always liked good-looking people since he was little.”
Lin Xiaoxiao: "I can tell, he's a sucker for good looks."
Chu Wuyan relentlessly exposed all the foolish things Chu Wuyi had done as a child.
"When I was three years old, I saw a pretty woman on the street, hugged her and called her 'sister,' and insisted that she take me home."
"When he was five, he secretly climbed over the wall to sleep with the handsome boy next door. His family searched almost the entire compound, thinking he had been kidnapped by human traffickers. When he was brought back by the neighbor the next day, the neighbor's face was as black as the bottom of a pot."
"Ten years old..."
"......"
Hearing the rest, Lin Xiaoxiao gained a deeper understanding of Chu Wuyi's obsession with good looks.
People who are obsessed with appearances are practically walking beauty tests.
Thinking of how Chu Wuyi's eyes lit up when he saw Luo Qingming, she touched her own face and wondered if she was just average-looking.
Chu Wuyan seemed to know what she was thinking and said with a smile, "Don't doubt your own appearance. Xiao Yi was staring at your face in the ward yesterday, but you just didn't notice."
Lin Xiaoxiao lowered her hand. At that time, the Chu family members were all watching her and did not notice anything.
In the kitchen.
Luo Qingming's face was tense, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and it felt as if thousands of flies were buzzing around his ears at the same time, giving him a headache.
Chu Wuyi hovered around him like a little bee.
"Brother Ming, the eggs you cracked are so perfectly intact."
"...Your knife skills are amazing."
"......"
After finally getting the meal ready, Luo Qingming couldn't wait to send him off after the meal.
The moment Chu Wuyan and Chu Wuyi stepped out of the door, it slammed shut with a bang.
Chu Wuyan mocked Chu Wuyi, "Look how annoyed you are."
Chu Wuyi chuckled, not taking it to heart at all.
"Stop laughing." Chu Wuyan slapped him on the head.
"Why?" Chu Wuyi persisted, glaring angrily at his older brother.
Chu Wuyan scoffed, "Because you laugh like a fool, you're obviously not smart."
Chu Wuyi: "..."
They actually called him stupid! I'm so angry! I'm so angry!
"I'm going to tell Grandpa about you."
