At night, Xiao Ruanruan wore a penguin pajama set, looking like a little penguin with her white belly sticking out, and hugged the strange-looking rabbit that her sister had given her.
They knocked on Su Lei's brother's door.
Su Lei opened the door and saw the adorable little Ruan Ruan standing there. Almost subconsciously and habitually, he reached out and ruffled her little head.
Little Softie: ……
Su Lei was completely unaware that there was anything wrong with his actions, and naturally asked Xiao Ruanruan, "Xiao Ruanruan, what do you need me for?"
Xiao Ruanruan originally wanted to reiterate her decision from noon, but seeing Su Lei's expression, she gave up and gave up.
I'd rather just be a lazy bum lying flat!
She carried the four-legged rabbit into Su Lei's room, sat down on the beanbag chair, and even curled her short legs up on it. Her big, bright, dark eyes, like crystal grapes, looked at Su Lei and asked, "Brother Su Lei, why did you agree to help Chen Danqing?"
Little Ruanruan asked very seriously because she was a little worried.
My main concern is that if Su Lei's brother also has some obsession and wants to travel back in time, then...
Su Lei seemed to sense Xiao Ruanruan's worry and reached out to rub her head. "Xiao Ruanruan, what are you thinking about? The reason I agreed to Chen Danqing's request is simple: she gave me enough money."
Although we have our older brothers now, live in a big house, and have no worries about food or drink, we still want as much money as possible.
Besides, if I could earn money too, my brothers wouldn't have to work so hard!
Little Soft and Bright Eyes stared at Su Lei without saying a word.
Su Lei laughed, "Little Ruanruan, don't worry, I don't have any obsession with time travel. Although I sometimes miss my mother, she passed away from an illness."
Even if I traveled back in time, it wouldn't make a difference!
Little Ruanruan thought about it and agreed. She stretched out her little hands and pinched Su Lei's face, pulling the corners of Su Lei's mouth into an upward curve. She blinked her clear and watery eyes and said to Su Lei seriously, "Brother Su Lei, you look very handsome when you smile. You should smile more often in the future."
Actually, children should be carefree and happy like their older brother and sister.
But Su Lei inherited his older brother's traits, becoming mature beyond his years and always wearing a stern face, which was not cute at all.
When Xiao Ruanruan returned to her room, she was surprised to find that Brother Gu Chen was actually in her room. She rubbed her eyes in disbelief and asked, "Brother Gu Chen, what are you doing here?"
Although Gu Chen is currently staying in their guest room, his four older brothers are keeping a close watch on him and won't let him near her room at all.
Gu Chenqing's handsome features were full of gentle smiles. "Your brothers have all gone out to take care of things. I'll read you a bedtime story."
Looking at Gu Chen's expression, Xiao Ruanruan narrowed her eyes and smiled like a cute little fox, "Gu Chen, the things my brothers have to deal with are all things you caused, right?"
Seeing a hint of danger in Xiao Ruanruan's eyes, which were smiling like a little fox, Gu Chen quickly explained, "The things the brothers are going to deal with are all good things."
The smile on Xiao Ruanruan's face was genuine.
With her little arms and legs, she hopped onto the bed, lay down obediently, closed her eyes, and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Brother Gu Chen, please read me a story!"
Gu Chen picked up Xiao Ruanruan's storybook from her bedside table with a doting expression. Ever since Xiao Ruanruan's interest in Peppa Pig waned, the storybooks on her bedside table had changed from Peppa Pig to fairy tales.
Gu Chen held Andersen's fairy tales in his hands and read them softly.
"...and the prince and princess lived happily ever after."
By the time the story was finished, the little darling on the bed had already fallen asleep peacefully.
After falling asleep, her fair and snow-white face was flushed with a blush like cherry blossom petals. Her long, thick eyelashes, like tiny brushes, cast shadows on her eyelids. Her delicate little nose and jelly-like lips made her indescribably adorable.
Gu Chen bent his long, slender fingers with distinct knuckles and gently stroked Xiao Ruanruan's small, soft nose.
Although sometimes he wishes that Little Softie would grow up quickly.
But more often than not, he wanted her to grow up slowly. Little Ruanruan had suffered too much in her previous life, and he hoped that she could enjoy the process of growing up in this life.
Gu Chen stayed in Xiao Ruanruan's room with her until he calculated that Su Yiqing and his four brothers would be returning soon. Only then did he quietly leave Xiao Ruanruan's room and return to his own.
Time flies, and three days later, Xiao Ruanruan received a call from Chen Danqing.
Su Yifan wholeheartedly agreed to Xiao Ruanruan and Su Lei's plan to help Chen Danqing build a time machine. In his view, Xiao Ruanruan's agreement was undoubtedly one step closer to her inheriting his mantle and engaging in scientific research.
However, Su Yan was very unhappy.
Although Xiao Ruanruan agreed to join her grandfather's film crew, she ultimately chose the role of a little fairy, which only had a few scenes. If filming went smoothly, Xiao Ruanruan would only need to stay for half a day.
Moreover, his filming will not begin until after the Lantern Festival, because after finishing the Spring Festival Gala, he will have to go on to perform at the Lantern Festival Gala.
Therefore, his film will not be able to start shooting until after the Lantern Festival.
Not only him, but even Shi Yu was extremely busy during the Spring Festival, attending one gala after another.
Although Xiao Yiyi had told Su Yan not to assign so much work to Shi Yu, Shi Yu insisted on attending the events after seeing the announcements, and Su Yan couldn't stop him.
Moreover, idols in the entertainment industry are replaced too quickly these days. Although Shi Yu quickly gained popularity last year with his performance in the slow-paced variety show "Slow Life in the Countryside" and his acting skills in a BL drama.
However, if he reduces his exposure opportunities, given the current pace of change in the entertainment industry, his output will not be enough to support his popularity, and he will soon be forgotten in the entertainment circle.
Therefore, neither he nor Su Yan dared to reduce his workload too much.
Su Yifan looked at the sullen Su Yan, pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, and looked at Su Yan with a hint of smugness in his eyes.
Su Yan immediately became unhappy, "Third Brother Su, what's there to be so proud of? Little Ruanruan doesn't want to join me in the entertainment industry, and she didn't agree to go to your lab with you either!"
Su Yifan patted Su Yan's shoulder with a smile like a fox, "It's okay if Xiao Ruanruan doesn't want to go to the lab with me. I've already talked to Chen Danqing. I'll go to their lab and give them technical guidance."
Su Yan looked at Su Yifan with disdain, "Can't you have any shame? You're lowering yourself to become a technical expert for three kids who are just playing around. Aren't you ashamed?"
Su Yifan looked at Chen Danqing, who had come to pick up Xiao Ruanruan and Su Lei, as she got out of the car. Was she just playing around?
He didn't think Chen Danqing and Xiao Ruanruan were just joking around.
