Chapter 141: Childish
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yue Lingyi did not like to interact with others. To him, interacting with others was a very painful thing. Because he could not be sure if what he did would cause trouble for others, he would consider it, again and again, to prevent causing trouble for his eldest brother before he did everything. However, even if he tried very hard, he still could not interact with others normally. He felt that his eldest brother tolerated him, and only his fourth brother could truly understand him.
But now, just now, he realized that there was another person who could communicate with him without any obstacles and would not be surprised by any of his actions because that person did not think.
Yue Lingyi used both hands to write for the two of them 100 times. In fact, it did not take long.
Yue Xin’s criteria for determining the time was whether they finished copying the book and sat at the dining table before her stomach growled. Today was the liveliest day at the dining table in Yue Xin’s memory. There were actually four people!
“Yue Xin, eat the vegetables.” Yue Xin was eating with her head lowered. When she looked up, a vegetable was thrown into her bowl.
Yue Xin pretended not to see anything. Her chopsticks nimbly pulled the vegetables to the edge of the bowl; she continued to eat other dishes, but she didn’t eat this vegetable! As long as she ate the meat quickly, the vegetables won’t be able to catch up to her!
Seeing that Yue Xin was playing dumb, Yue Lingchen didn’t say anything. Instead, he kept putting vegetables into her bowl.
When Yue Xin saw that there were more and more vegetables in her bowl, she immediately covered her bowl with her hand and ran away with it. On the way to escape, she realized that Yue Lingchen did not chase after her. She stopped in her tracks, hugged the bowl, and looked at Yue Lingchen. Everything was obvious.
Yue Lingchen picked up the food too quickly, so much so that Yue Xin fled the table. Her bowl was still filled with vegetables, and there was no place to put meat.
Yue Xin’s bowl into his bowl and said indifferently, “Just finish the vegetables in the bowl.”
Yue Xin widened her eyes. Eat the food in her bowl? Did he want to take a look at the “vegetable mountain” in her bowl?
At this moment, Yue Lingyi was silently eating. He began to wonder if the big brother in front of him was really his big brother. In his impression, his big brother would never do such a childish thing. Yue Xin must have led his big brother astray. Thinking of this, he glanced at Yue Xin from the corner of his eyes.
Unexpectedly, Yue Xin happened to be looking at him, and their gazes met. Yue Lingyi suddenly felt a chill run down his back. Then, he heard Yue Xin ask his brother, “Big Brother, is it fine as long as they are eaten?”
At this moment, Yue Lingchen still didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem. He nodded and said, “Yes.”
After he agreed, Yue Xin immediately ran to Yue Lingyi’s side and started to spout nonsense. “Fifth Brother, if you’re willing to help me eat these vegetables, Fourth Brother will think that you’re a gentle person. That way, he won’t be afraid of you.”
Hearing this, Yue Lingyi did not answer or hesitate. He did not even ask Yue Lingchen and Yue Lingyu. He reached out with his chopsticks and picked up the “vegetable mountain” from Yue Xin’s bowl.
However, he did not put it in his bowl. Instead, he placed it in the soup. He said, “This green vegetable is stained with both your saliva. I can’t eat it without washing it.” Therefore, he used the soup to wash it.
Yue Xin didn’t mind and only urged him to eat quickly.
The two of them were consensual and did not care about how their conversation would affect the other two people at the table.
Yue Lingyu was originally eating well, but after hearing Yue Xin’s words, he was a little at a loss. He was indeed a little afraid of Little Five, but she shouldn’t have said this directly…
And Yue Lingchen only had one thought. That he was too careless…
After Yue Lingyi finished eating the vegetables, Yue Xin returned to her seat as if nothing had happened. The dining table fell silent again, leaving only the occasional sound of cutlery colliding and the faint sound of chewing.
At this moment, Yue Lingyu suddenly asked Yue Lingyi in a low voice, “Little
Five, why are you helping your sister eat vegetables?”
Yue Lingyi swallowed the food in his mouth and said, “She’s too noisy.” After saying that, he added, “A twelve-year-old person is as childish as a two-year-old.”
Yue Lingyu smiled. “I think it’s good that you’re like this.”
Yue Lingyi did not say anything, but he was very happy in his heart. Fourth Brother smiled at him.
On this day, Yue Xin still ate vegetables because her brother had said that if she didn’t eat, he wouldn’t let her lie down. In short, she couldn’t beat him.
The days after that passed just like that. Yue Lingyu did not go to school for the time being, nor did he accept any invitations to any projects. In his words, every project was a big deal, and he had to consider it carefully. However, in reality, he just wanted to play with his sister for a while longer. He felt that his current home made him feel safe and relaxed.. If he returned to school and made medicinal wine with the professors, he would hear all kinds of gossip again…
