While the little girl was focused on the older boy, the other five older boys and Sister Qianqian simultaneously reached for the last tiger-skin cake on the plate.
Sisi single-handedly blocked her five brothers' five big hands with her two paws, her little eyes sweeping over their faces, "Don't you all not eat sweets?"
Her five older brothers didn't want to compete with her for food, so they were about to let her have it.
Su Xiaowu's wicked little hand reached for the last cake without any hesitation. "Since you're all being so polite, then I won't be polite either."
With that, he gulped down the last small cake in one go, rubbing his stomach and saying, "I'm still so hungry, Lao Liu, when are we going to eat?"
The little girl looked at him with eyes as bright as stars, "Big brother, have you been very hungry lately?"
"Of course!" Su Xiaowu said with a bit of pride, "Your little brother has recently added two more boxing classes to his routine. With that much exercise every day, how could I not be hungry?"
"But you eat so much, yet you've lost weight!"
"Have you lost weight?" Su Xiaowu touched her cheek.
The others also looked at Su Xiaowu.
Su Xiaowu's face, which was originally a bit chubby, now has prominent cheekbones.
It makes the facial lines appear more defined and the features more three-dimensional, making them look more open and attractive, but it always feels a little awkward to look at.
"Hey! Losing weight just means I've been exercising too much and not eating enough," Su Xiaowu said nonchalantly. "I'll just eat more in the future."
As someone who had studied medicine, Su Yiqing's first thought was whether Su Xiaowu had diabetes, so she immediately called Yu Wuwei and arranged a medical check-up for Su Xiaowu.
Su Xiaowu's face instantly fell. "Tyrant, did I just eat two more bowls of rice from you? We're brothers, after all. Did you really have to send me to the hospital for just two bowls of rice?"
"The physical exam is already scheduled. If you don't want to go by yourself tomorrow, I'll have someone drag you there. You decide what to do!" Su Xiaowu's wailing instantly echoed throughout the entire villa.
Little Ruanruan toddled over to Su Xiaowu, took his hand, and said in her childish voice, "Big brother, don't be afraid, Ruanruan will go to the hospital with you tomorrow!"
Su Xiaowu immediately puffed out her chest, "Who said I'm scared? Is your little brother the kind of coward who's afraid of even a physical exam?"
The young man was simply upset that someone had openly used their position to settle a personal score, retaliating against him for eating two extra bowls of rice from him!
"Ruanruan knows, big brother is going to be a boxing champion in the future, he's very brave!" the little dumpling said in her soft, sweet voice.
With the little dumpling's support, no one wanted to spoil the fun and embarrass Su Xiaowu.
After dinner.
Amidst the mournful gazes of her three older brothers, the little girl specifically requested Su Ziyuan to tell her a bedtime story.
Su Ziyuan happily gave the little dumpling a kiss, then raised an eyebrow at his other three brothers with a smug look. "See? Even though I'm back the least, I'm still my little sister's favorite brother!"
"Ha!" Su Yan snorted coldly, "My sister only feels sorry for you because you don't come back often. We're all generous and won't argue with you!"
"Tch, you're all just jealous of me!" Su Ziyuan said proudly as he carried the little dumpling upstairs.
Su Yiqing watched Su Ziyuan carry the little dumpling upstairs, a gentle smile flashing in her deep eyes: It's so nice to have a little sister. Even the once aloof and world-weary Su Ziyuan has come alive.
Before Xiao Tuanzi came back, even when his parents were still alive, Su Ziyuan would only come back once a year for the Lunar New Year to eat New Year's Eve dinner, as if it were a task to complete.
Thinking back to previous years, even when Su Xiaowu set off firecrackers loudly during the Spring Festival, the house was still cold and quiet.
This year……
Things should be different now!
Su Ziyuan carried the little dumpling back to the room.
The little dumpling sat cross-legged on the pink floral bed. Su Ziyuan had just picked up a storybook when the little dumpling grabbed his hand.
The little dumpling pouted her pink lips, like cherry blossom petals, and shook Su Ziyuan's big hand, adorably pleading, "Second brother, third brother has already moved back, can you come back and live here too?"
Su Ziyuan gently stroked the little dumpling's soft hair, and this time, without any hesitation, nodded and agreed, "Okay!"
The little dumpling's big eyes, which seemed to hold a sky full of stars, shone brightly and beautifully. With her short, lotus-root-like hands, she climbed up from the bed, spun around happily, and wiggled her little bottom.
Looking up at Su Ziyuan with a bright smile and rosy cheeks, revealing eight white and soft baby teeth, she said, "Second brother, you're back too! Our family can finally live together again. It's so great! Ruanruan is so happy!"
As she spoke, she slid off the bed using both her hands and feet, and ran out of the room to tell her older brothers and sisters the good news.
Su Yiqing said, "If he wants to come back to live here, just find him any room and tidy it up."
Su Yifan: "Heh, he came back as soon as I got back. It's obvious he's back to steal my sister from me."
Su Yan: "Oh dear, I'll have to face his stinky face every day from now on. What a headache!"
Su Xiaowu: "So what if he comes back? It won't do me any good anyway!"
...
Little Softie: "..."
If she hadn't been good-looking and seen their barely suppressed upturned smiles, she would have actually believed their lies.
It turns out that this guy's "saying one thing but meaning another" attitude isn't unique, but rather a common trait!
When the little girl returned to her room, Su Ziyuan tucked her in, turned off the main light, turned on the night light, and then gently read her a story.
The little girl was indeed tired today. Before Su Ziyuan could finish telling her a single story, she had already drifted off into a sweet dream.
Su Ziyuan carefully turned off the night light and tiptoed out of her room.
In the darkness, a completely black cat silently slipped through the window into the little dumpling's room.
Following closely behind was Little Peach, dressed in a black studded leather jacket, black motorcycle pants, and cool black Doc Martens.
"Woof woof—"
As soon as Little Peach came in, two soft barks reached her ears.
Little Peach frowned and glared fiercely at Little White. "Stupid dog, shut up!"
Little White, looking dejected, tucked its tail between its legs and wiggled its little bottom as it returned to its doghouse.
The black cat looked down at it with disdain, "Stupid dogs are always stupid!"
After entering the room, Little Peach leaned against the wall in a cool and stylish manner, her obsidian-like eyes looking at the little dumpling sleeping soundly on the bed without any emotion.
