The summer breeze was a bit hot, and the incessant chirping of cicadas made it feel even more stifling.
In a courtyard of the Imperial Academy, little Helian Mousi, with her delicate rosy cheeks, was resting on her desk.
With eyes as round as grapes, she looked at the handsome, ethereal scholar standing on the podium, a book in his hand, and found him utterly boring.
"Hawoo~"
Helian Si patted his little mouth with his chubby little hands and yawned.
In an instant, a layer of misty water covered his eyes, and he rubbed them with his chubby little hands.
No, no, Sisi is so sleepy, so sleepy, so sleepy. Even the Master's handsome face is no longer effective.
"Gurgle~"
The little girl, with her short, delicate hands, quietly touched her flat little belly, her little mouth pouting slightly.
Sisi is hungry...
Before the little girl could even close her pouting lips, a pastry appeared before her eyes—the kind that's fragrant, soft, and sweet like a sweet hibiscus cake.
Mou Sisi's eyes lit up, she silently swallowed, and couldn't wait to take a big bite and swallow the fragrant, soft and sweet hibiscus cake.
But Sisi is such a sensible and well-behaved child. She clenched her little fists and managed to suppress her craving for food.
The little girl, with her rosy cheeks, turned her head to look at her third brother, who was offering her the hibiscus cake. She met his bright, dark eyes.
Helian Mou Sisi was a little embarrassed, her little face blushing shyly, and her soft, sweet voice murmured.
"Um, Third Brother, is the hibiscus cake for Sisi?"
Helian You didn't speak, but nodded seriously, and then handed a few more of the hibiscus cake to Helian Si.
"Thank you, Third Brother!"
Under Helian You's expectant gaze, the little girl carefully took the hibiscus cake from his hand.
He opened his little mouth and took a small bite. The fragrant, soft, and sweet taste made Helian Mousi's eyes crinkle into crescent moons with a smile.
Suddenly, Sisi thought of something, and cut the hibiscus cake in the little one's hand in half, keeping the half that she had already taken a small bite of.
The other half was handed to Helian You, who was looking at her intently. The little girl smiled sweetly.
"Give some to my third brother!"
On Helian You's fair face, his dark, bright eyes flickered slightly as they landed on the half-piece of hibiscus cake the little girl had handed him.
She took it, put it to her mouth, and ate it very, very slowly. This was a portion given to her by her little princess, and she wanted to eat it slowly.
Helian You thought to himself.
The reason the two dolls were sitting together was because of Helian You's insistence.
Originally, a little girl was supposed to sit next to Helian Mou Sisi, but Helian You refused, taking advantage of the fact that they arrived first.
Holding Helian Sisi's little hand, Helian You moved his little body and sat down next to Helian Sisi. No matter what Helian You said, he was unwilling to let go of Helian Sisi's hand.
This caused the little girl, who had originally wanted to sit with Helian Si, to have tears welling up in her eyes and look pitifully at Helian You.
The six-year-old girl, Helian You, was puzzled: Why was she crying in front of him? He wasn't her brother.
With this understanding, no matter how pitiful the little girl looked with tears in her eyes, Helian You didn't react at all and silently looked away.
He even mentally noted it down: Girls are troublesome. (Except for the little princess.)
