While Zhong Jiayi was still pondering why her brother had become the brother of a silly little idiot, Xiao Anman had already started drinking milk with both hands.
Not to be outdone, Zhong Jiayi stood still, hesitant to step forward.
As the older brother, Zhong Jiarui naturally paid attention to his little rascal who now seems unable to even walk.
After all, it was his first time bringing a friend home, so we should give him some face.
Thinking this, Zhong Jiarui waved to Zhong Jiayi with one hand.
"Come here, there's fruit."
It has to be said that there are reasons why these two brothers don't get along as well as other families. Just look at the tone of Zhong Jiarui, the older brother.
Dry and cold, do you think they're someone you can order around and manage?
However, it seems that Zhong Jiayi doesn't care much about this, since this has always been their way of getting along.
The little boy with curly hair, his face scrunched up, was the last to hug the AD calcium milk.
Yes, that's right. The servants prepared two bottles of AD calcium milk for them as drinks.
She had bought this to take back to her grandsons, because the two brothers were not picky eaters and, influenced by the Zhong family's traditions, rarely touched snacks.
I drink even fewer beverages.
As expected, when Zhong Jiayi brought her friends back today, the maid casually added two bottles of milk.
Sweet and sour is definitely Xiao Anman's taste.
It tasted so good that Xiao Anman squinted his eyes.
"Thank you, brother~"
Beautiful and with a sweet voice, that's An An herself. She was very satisfied to receive the delicious drink and thanked them.
"He's clearly my brother!" Zhong Jiayi said, taking a few sips of milk from his bottle while secretly glancing at his brother out of the corner of his eye.
Two brothers and a baby dragon had an unforgettable dinner.
"You...want to eat more?"
Zhong Jiayi had already put down his chopsticks. At first, he could understand it as An'an eating one bite after another because the food at home was so delicious.
But after looking at it for a short while, it seems that's not the case at all.
Even Zhong Jiarui, who has a big appetite, looked at Xiao Anman with some unease.
"Hmm, can't I eat it?"
Because she wasn't at the Gu family's house and Gu Tingxiao wasn't around, Xiao Anman ate a meal that felt somewhat like she was on her own.
"Sure, but aren't you full yet?"
I initially thought that the phrase "so hungry he could eat a whole cow" was just a joke, but I never imagined that for Xiao Anman, it was simply a simple and unadorned reflection of reality.
Xiao An, being quite cunning, honestly shook his head.
Why would she feel full? For her, at most she would just take a short break after eating until she was tired; the idea of being full is simply a myth.
For once, the two Zhong brothers exchanged a glance.
They both saw disbelief and confusion in each other's eyes.
Zhong Jiarui was much older than them, and without knowing Xiao Anman's true identity, there was absolutely no reason for him to let her eat as she pleased.
I thought that since Daddy wasn't here today, no one would bother her.
Forced to abandon her meal plans, Xiao Anman sat on the blanket next to the coffee table, cupping her face in her hands, and played games with Zhong Jiayi.
However, the straightforward Zhong Jiayi didn't even consider whether Xiao Anman would be interested in the games he played.
Anyway, Xiao Anman wouldn't refuse him.
Moreover, his own brother inexplicably took half of it, without him even saying anything.
"...No, that's not how it works. You should put this piece here, understand?"
After winning and winning all the time, Zhong Jiayi finally got a little bored and started giving Xiao Anman pointers.
While sitting on the sofa replying to messages on her phone, Zhong Jiayi would occasionally glance at her two little ones.
However, you have to admit that Zhong Jiarui gave most of his attention to Xiao Anman.
Although winning or losing isn't important, Xiao Anman couldn't take it anymore after losing so many times.
Waaaaah, I've never won even once.
"elder brother."
Zhong Jiayi looked down and saw a glutinous rice ball hanging at his feet. He didn't know when Xiao Anman had gotten close. Perhaps he had been too focused on replying to messages and had let his guard down, which was why this had happened.
"What's wrong?"
There are just too many men in the Zhong family. Apart from their own family, Zhong Jiarui's cousins and other male relatives could form a football team.
In a family where men are more numerous than women, a cute little girl like Xiao Anman is a rare and precious treasure.
Therefore, it's inevitable that Zhong Jiarui will unconsciously become more gentle when facing Xiao Anman.
To outsiders, his gentleness might not be obvious, but for Zhong Jiarui, it's already quite remarkable.
Well, after all, it's a tough guy route.
"Let's play games together, brother."
"Let the long-legged brother take her place," Xiao An thought, biting her finger.
She doesn't seem to be able to beat Liang Jingjing, but the long-legged brother looks very strong, so he should be able to.
? ? ?
Zhong Jiayi, who was tidying up the Gomoku game, found it hard to pretend she didn't hear him. Could she just put it back?
To accommodate the little idiot, he specifically chose the simplest game of Gomoku.
Who knows how he won? Ultimately, Xiao Anman was just playing randomly because he wasn't interested in the game.
She wasn't playing seriously and was distracted, which is bad enough, but now she wants to call for help, and it's her brother she's calling for.
but……
Zhong Jiayi inwardly scoffed at Xiao Anman, thinking she was being far too optimistic. Who was her brother? Why would he agree to such a ridiculous request...?
Before the吐槽 (tu cao, meaning to roast or criticize) was over, Zhong Jiayi performed a pufferfish transformation once again.
He saw his brother put down his phone and seemed to be getting up to come across to him.
No way, really?
Zhong Jiayi could hardly believe that her silly deskmate had such great charm.
Regardless of where it comes from, Xiao Anman has this kind of charm.
The maid came over at just the right moment with lots of snacks, saving the day.
However, this time interval was short, so by the time Xiao Anman inserted the small spoon into the ice cream in the glass bowl, the Zhong Jiayi brothers were already sitting cross-legged facing each other.
"You go first."
Gomoku is at most a simple educational game for preschoolers. Even if Zhong Jiarui played with his eyes closed, Zhong Jiayi still couldn't beat him.
Therefore, his posture was somewhat casual, as was his tone.
But this very attitude somehow provoked Zhong Jiayi. His face turned serious, and he held a light blue chess piece in his hand, staring at the chessboard, intending to secure a good start for himself.
The game between the two brothers, which seemed to be playing out of nowhere, had a slightly more playful and exciting feel to it.
Little Anman, oblivious to her own cuteness, took a bite of chocolate-flavored ice cream and looked at the two of them expectantly with her big eyes.
Who will win between Sparkling and Long-Legged Brother?
