"So this is where it is. I didn't see it before."
Jiang Chi smiled and put the little dumpling back on the ground.
As soon as Chaochao landed, she suddenly remembered her identity, turned to look at her brother, her cheeks puffed out in anger: "No, that's not right, I'm the little devil, I'm the one who caught my brother!"
The little dumpling put its hands on its hips and mimicked Grey Wolf's tone: "If you don't behave, I'll eat you up!"
"Ah, I'm so scared..."
Jiang Chi instantly switched into his dramatic persona, wanting to tease the little dumpling. His face was filled with panic, and his peach blossom eyes seemed to glisten with tears. He covered his mouth with his hand and said in a low, soft voice, "I'm most afraid of ghosts..."
Chaochao proudly raised her head and hummed in her childish voice, "Brother, are you scared now?"
Jiang Chi, looking weak and helpless, lowered his head and murmured, "Mmm..."
The system almost choked on its own saliva.
It suddenly came to mind a title—
The frail maid uprooted a willow tree.
That couldn't be more fitting.
At this moment, all three older brothers had been found. Chaochao, like a bandit leader returning from a robbery with a full load of loot, walked triumphantly towards the living room.
But after taking only a few steps, they slowly came to a stop.
Chaochao turned to look at Jiang Chi, her almond-shaped eyes hesitant: "Brother, are you... really afraid of ghosts?"
Jiang Chi was taken aback upon hearing this, and quickly lowered his head, feigning weakness, his voice soft: "Um... I'm scared..."
The system was awestruck, and the host computer twitched.
Is this what netizens mean by lacking acting skills?
Perhaps Jiang Chi hasn't found a suitable role for himself.
Seeing Jiang Chi's fragile and pitiful appearance, the soft-hearted Chaochao ran back and tugged at Jiang Chi's arm. After the young man squatted down, the soft and cuddly little dumpling opened her arms and hugged him.
"Brother, don't be afraid... the little devil won't eat you..."
"I...I won't eat you either..."
Listening to the little dumpling's earnest words of comfort, Jiang Chi couldn't help but want to laugh.
What an easy kid to fool!
The little dumpling beside her neck muttered softly, "And brother doesn't taste good either..."
Jiang Chi: "..."
So I'm not in your recipes, huh?
The two boys were standing not far from the bathroom door.
Xie Jingcheng raised an eyebrow, observing Jiang Chi, who was putting on an act to gain sympathy, and thought to himself that Chaochao's older brother was indeed as childish as he appeared in the live stream.
Yu Ci stood closer to the door, her pale fingertips resting on the edge, silently watching the brother and sister embrace intimately. After a long while, her clear eyes lowered.
If Chaochao finds him.
...He also said he was afraid of the dark.
The three respectable men... no, the three older brothers were all captured, and the little devil Chaochao won a great victory in this game of hide-and-seek.
The system records that in this water-letting contest, Yu Ci and Xie Jingcheng each gained one point, as for Jiang Chi...
The system considered that he was playing more seriously than a child, and the scene of him teasing Chaochao, and after some hesitation, decided to add one point.
We'll probably just look at the result, not the process.
Under the pleading gaze of the little boy, the older brothers finally gave in, and Chaochao was given two small bags of snacks before dinner.
You can even eat it openly and honestly!
The happy little dumpling swayed left and right.
Being a ghost is so comfortable! She wants to be a ghost again next time!
While Chaochao was playing with his toys by himself, his older brothers chatted for a few moments to avoid an awkward silence.
Unexpectedly, the conversation turned into a battle over the right to provide educational guidance for Chaochao's future.
The conversation started when they inadvertently mentioned the tune Chaochao hummed when she was a ghost. They then brought up the fact that Chaochao couldn't count to ten, and could only count from one to seven at most, let alone do addition and subtraction within ten.
Jiang Chi leaned back in his armchair, his eyes narrowing: "I'll tutor Chaochao myself. Although I graduated from Columbia University, I'm more than capable of teaching a kid."
Columbia University, an Ivy League school.
system:"……"
It's almost forgotten the conjunctions "although but".
Yu Ci smiled slightly, showing no intention of backing down: "Six times consecutively ranked first in the grade, and won the first prize in the provincial mathematics Olympiad."
He was confident that he would be a top-ranked player in the country.
Xie Jingcheng: "..."
I'm starting to regret it a bit; I should have put in the effort sooner.
"First prize in the provincial math Olympiad, ranked first in the grade," he said.
Jiang Chi frowned and looked at Yu Ci: "Didn't you win first place again?"
Xie Jingcheng's phoenix eyes were indifferent: "Isn't it okay to be tied for first place?"
So, when Huo Qin came out of the study after the meeting, he saw this scene.
A Columbia University graduate and two math Olympiad winners are engaged in a heated debate about their academic credentials, while a little boy with no kindergarten diploma sits happily playing with toy cars among the three high achievers.
Huo Qin: "..."
It's time to let the little one be exposed to knowledge.
At this point, the three were still arguing over the right to mentor.
Yu Ci looked at Jiang Chi and said calmly, "Brother Chaochao, you are a public figure with a busy schedule. If you need to tutor Chaochao, it will inevitably interfere with your work."
The words sounded very nice; to passersby, it seemed like she was genuinely thinking of Jiang Chi's best interests—unless, of course, she had said that last sentence.
“So,” the boy sighed, like a benevolent bodhisattva in the world, “leave it to me.”
"Heh." Xie Jingcheng disagreed, giving Yu Ci a cold glance. "Your home is too far away, it's inconvenient."
Yu Ci's smile froze instantly.
After criticizing Yu Ci, Xie Jingcheng turned to Jiang Chi and said, "Although you are from Columbia University, Jiang, you applied for exemption from school to enter the entertainment industry a couple of years ago, so you're probably not very familiar with primary and secondary school content."
In short, your studies are not solid enough, and you are out of touch with the education you received due to your age.
