After breakfast, Gu Chen ignored the three old men and the pile of things they had destroyed at home, and went straight to the Su family's house.
Su Xiaowu and Su Xixi had already been sent to school early in the morning. Only Su Lei was sitting in the living room, holding a tablet and looking at the 3D model of the Marshal Tianpeng they had made, while waiting for him.
Seeing him arrive, Su Lei glanced up at him slightly and said, "Little Ruanruan is still sleeping. Sit down and wait."
After Gu Chen sat down, Su Lei pushed the tablet in front of him. "This is the overall structure and functional diagram of the Marshal Tianpeng after its design and production are completed. Take a look first. Xiao Ruanruan said she is too young and it would be too flashy for her to demonstrate. So you will be the one to demonstrate during the competition."
Gu Chen glanced at Su Lei indifferently.
Su Lei immediately understood his meaning and explained, "I can only handle network-related issues; I'm not good at operating machinery. Tang Guang, you know him, he'd be incredibly nervous in such a large setting, so he definitely wouldn't be able to handle it either."
The implication was that only he remained.
Gu Chen pushed his tablet back, "No need to watch it. I'm very familiar with Marshal Tianpeng, after all, it's Xiao Ruanruan's creation."
Su Lei put his tablet away and silently rolled his eyes. So what if he's just a little softie's lapdog? What's there to be proud of?
——
A soft, cozy room.
The little dumpling held her tiny fists above her head, her fair and radiant face flushed with a faint pink from sleeping so comfortably. The winter sun outside the window shone through the snow-covered landscape, casting its light into the room and landing on her face.
The light made her little face appear even whiter and more radiant, like a tempting red apple.
Little Ruanruan subconsciously shielded her eyes from the sunlight with her hand.
Unable to block her view, she simply closed her eyes, rolled over, lay face down on the bed, and stuck her little bottom up to sleep.
She hadn't slept for long when her long, brush-like eyelashes trembled slightly, and Xiao Ruanruan reluctantly opened her eyes.
A pair of fair and delicate little hands pushed away the blanket. This damn biological clock, it finally came back to normal, I wanted to sleep in, but I still woke up so early.
Little Ruanruan slipped out of bed, put on Peppa Pig slippers, washed up, and then went to the balcony to take a look outside.
Looking at the snow-covered world, her beautiful, big, dark eyes curved into sweet little crescents. When she came back from this competition, she could play in the snow with her older brothers and sisters.
In her past life, she was always busy making a living, and later she worked tirelessly to build a time machine to travel through time. She never had time to have any fun.
In addition, at that time, her laboratory was in Chongqing, so she spent most of her time in Chongqing, where it was rare to see snow.
So, seeing such a thick layer of snow, she was still a little excited.
Today, after wearing warm thermal underwear, Xiao Ruan Ruan also wore a white wool sweater embroidered with small flowers, a red wool coat, red leather boots, and a red beret.
Her already fair and radiant skin was made even more beautiful by this red outfit, making the little girl look fashionable and adorable.
As she walked downstairs, she saw that not only were her brothers Su Lei and Gu Chen waiting for her in the living room, but also her eldest brother, second brother, third brother, and fourth brother were all waiting for her in the living room.
Although the atmosphere between the five older brothers and Gu Chen was a little awkward, at least it wasn't as tense as before, which was a significant improvement.
Little Ruanruan shuffled her feet toward her brothers, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, are you waiting for me to see me and Su Lei off on the plane?"
Su Yiqing scooped up the little cuddly boy and held him in her arms, gently stroking his nose with her long, slender fingers with distinct knuckles. "I plan to go to the United States with you. I have a business collaboration to discuss there."
Su Ziyuan said in a calm voice, "I have a friendly match over there."
Su Yifan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. "Yeah, I'm also going to attend a technology forum."
"I'm going over there to discuss a film contract." Su Yan had already picked up his suitcase.
Little Softie: ……
What a coincidence!
She's going on another trip with a bunch of her brothers.
She blinked her large, clear, obsidian-like eyes. "Brother, you all went to the US with me. What will Sister Sisi and Brother do at home?"
Although Sister Sisi and her little brother were often left at home before, it was out of necessity. But this trip is very relaxed, and if we don't bring them along, it will be a bit...
Su Yiqing pinched her little nose and smiled gently, "Don't worry, big brother has already asked Uncle Li to bring Qianqian back."
"What about the older brothers?" Little Ruanruan asked, her gaze sweeping over the four older brothers.
The four older brothers avoided Xiao Ruanruan's gaze, keeping their eyes down and refusing to look into her eyes. It was obvious that they planned to leave the youngest brother alone at home.
Little Ruanruan frowned, her delicate eyebrows furrowing in a fierce yet endearing manner as she fought for her older brother's rights, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, you can't do this!"
Favoritism is wrong. Back then, because Grandma was biased, Dad, Mom, and you suffered so much. And you still act like this now?
Preferring sons to daughters is unacceptable, but favoring daughters over sons is equally unacceptable!
Su Yiqing looked at the little dumpling in her arms, its face puffed up like a little pufferfish, and her heart softened.
A hint of guilt flickered in his gentle eyes as he reached out and ruffled the little girl's hair. "Little girl, don't be angry anymore. Big brother knows he was wrong. Big brother will call Uncle Li right now and ask him to bring your little brother back, okay?"
Little Ruanruan crossed her little arms angrily to her chest, put on airs, and nodded aloofly, "Mmm!"
Although there was a hint of guilt in the older brother's eyes, Xiao Ruanruan knew very well that he didn't think there was anything wrong with his differential treatment.
Because in the older brother's mind, he might still feel that what he's doing for the younger brother is the best thing he can do.
After all, the older brothers had a deep-rooted belief that girls could be pampered as they grew up, but boys had to be treated strictly.
However, their harsh methods were not quite right.
Little Ruanruan sighed silently; being a younger sister was really difficult for her!
