Qiqi was very excited on the way home.
They kept asking Ji Chengfeng and Madam Ji what kind of people their second and third brothers were, what they liked, and what their personalities were like.
Although the older brothers she had met all liked her, she was still a little worried that her second and third brothers might not like her.
After all, when she was in the orphanage, she heard many of her friends who had been "returned" from the family say that some children in large families would be very hostile to outsiders, feeling that they were there to take away the love that belonged to their parents.
Qiqi thinks this statement is correct: if her parents love her more, then they will give less love to her brothers.
What if her second and third brothers dislike her because of this?
Seeing her anxious expression, Ji Chengfeng couldn't help but comfort her: "Qibao, don't worry. Although your second brother is a bit boring and doesn't have much interest in anything other than research, he's a very nice person and will definitely like you a lot. Your third brother hasn't been in good health since he was little and has a somewhat introverted personality, but he's always wanted a little sister. When your mother gave birth to your fifth and sixth brothers, your third brother was so excited."
Hearing her say that, Qiqi felt much more at ease.
"Daddy, if my second and third brothers don't like me, you have to protect me!" Qiqi shook her head and acted cute.
"Okay, Dad will always protect our Qi Bao." Ji Chengfeng patted her head.
The fluffy hair made Ji Chengfeng feel much better, even though he was so angry with Ji Chengye that he almost vomited blood.
The little girl seems to have a lot of insecurity; she always wants everyone to like her.
It seems he needs to warn those two brats beforehand.
Ji Chengfeng gave his wife a look, and Mrs. Ji understood and picked up Qiqi, sitting her on her lap and coaxing her to look at the night view outside the window.
Qiqi was immediately drawn to the beautiful neon lights, and kept exclaiming "Wow!"
Ji Chengfeng then took the opportunity to tag his two sons in the family group chat.
[Head of the family: @EternalSecondborn @Don'tCallMeThirdChild, we'll be home soon. I'm warning you, don't give me that deadpan look later, or you'll scare the little girl and I'll teach you a lesson.]
Ji Jingchi, the third son of the Ji family, was obedient and quickly replied with a single word in the group chat: "Okay."
Ji Jinnian, the second son of the Ji family, remained silent. Ji Chengfeng frowned, wondering if the boy had gone back to the lab after returning home.
When they're doing experiments, they're so engrossed in their work that they forget to eat or sleep, and they don't even care about their own family members. Even their closest family members often have to be careful about seeing them.
My little girl was really looking forward to their return.
What if that kid stays holed up in the lab and doesn't come out when we get back? My little girl will be so disappointed!
No, I absolutely cannot let my little girl down.
Ji Chengfeng immediately called his second son. He only intended to make a voice call, but accidentally clicked the wrong button and made a video call instead.
Before he could switch, the other end answered the call.
A young man in a white lab coat appeared on the screen, his face expressionless and his tone flat as he asked, "What is it?"
A clear, ethereal young voice came from the phone, and Qiqi, lost in the dazzling night view, heard it immediately.
He immediately turned around and looked over curiously.
Ji Chengfeng didn't notice and, afraid of disturbing Qiqi, lowered his voice and said, "I just sent you a message in the group chat, did you see it?"
"What news?" Ji Jinnian asked in a cold and impatient tone. He swiped the screen to shrink the video and switched to the group chat to see the message his father had sent. "She's just a little girl. As long as she doesn't bother me, I naturally won't give her a hard time."
"You brat, how can you talk to your sister like that, you..."
Before Ji Chengfeng could finish speaking, a little head popped up from the side, its face full of confusion: "Daddy, what's a little girl?"
Ji Jinnian switched back to the video and saw a fair and well-behaved face on the screen.
Snow-white skin, large, dark eyes that darted around like a little deer, sparkling with a clean, pure light.
Her small nose was slightly wrinkled, and her petal-like lips were curved into a smile, making her look like someone who was easy to bully.
Ji Jinnian suddenly felt like teasing her, and explained with a cold face: "Little girl, it means cutting a little girl like you into pieces, like sashimi!"
He glanced coldly at Qiqi's pretty little face, then smiled and said, "Emmm... your face looks very easy to cut."
"Ah..." Qiqi was frightened by his appearance, and covered her face with her hands, shrinking back into Madam Ji's arms. "Waaah... Mom, help me, I don't want to turn into a little girl!"
"Xiao Nian, don't scare your little sister!" Madam Ji quickly hugged Qi Qi to comfort her, while scolding her son at the same time.
Ji Jinnian curled her lip: "Tsk~~, what a coward."
"Ji Lao Er!" Seeing that he showed no remorse, Ji Chengfeng roared in anger.
Ji Jinnian's voice suddenly turned even colder: "I told you, don't call me 'Second Brother'!"
Then, *snap*, he hung up the phone.
Ji Chengfeng: ...
That brat! He's absolutely lawless!
She even dared to hang up on him; she really deserves to be taught a lesson.
Seeing that the little girl was so scared that she cried, her eyes were red, and she was holding her face and looked terrified, I felt so sorry for her. I wished I could fly home right now and drag that kid out of the lab and beat him up.
He's asking for trouble by spouting nonsense to scare his little girl; he deserves a beating!
Ji Chengfeng quickly joined in comforting his daughter: "Qibao, don't be afraid, your second brother is just kidding you. 'Little girl' doesn't mean I'm going to cut you into pieces, it's just a term of address. It's like 'little girl,' it means the same thing."
"Really?" Qiqi blinked her big, dark eyes.
Her eyes were still glistening with tears, and she looked so pitiful that it was especially heartbreaking.
Madam Ji nodded: "Really, your second brother was just teasing you, trying to scare you on purpose."
Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief, a look of relief appearing on her little face. She patted her chest with her little hand: "That's good, that's good."
She paused, then her face, which had just calmed down, suddenly started to tear up again. "Mommy, does my second brother not like me? Otherwise, why would he say such scary things to frighten me?"
"How could that be?" Madam Ji chuckled and patted her head. "Don't worry, your second brother is just a little eccentric, but he's actually a very good person. He just likes you, that's why he jokes with you."
The joke went too far; we forgot that Qi Bao is still a three-year-old girl.
Although the second son may seem cold, he is actually very gentle at heart, especially towards his family, where he reveals a side he never shows to outsiders.
He started teasing Qiqi as soon as they met, clearly showing his interest in Qibao.
That being said, Qi Bao is so cute, it's hard for anyone not to like her.
Qiqi nodded, and as she spoke, the car drove into the villa gate.
