Just to be able to qualify for elementary school, Qiao Luo expectantly yearned for 4 years. Now, he could finally attend elementary year 1, but only to realise that Fu Zhi Zhou was already in elementary year 6.
Qiao Luo held up his hand and counted for a very long time before asking Fu Zhi Zhou, feeling very discontented, “Zhou Zhou gege, how come you’ve attended a grade less?”
Fu Zhi Zhou ignored him. He went out to play with his friends the moment he finished his homework.
Qiao Luo could only ask Grandpa Fu. He then found out that Fu Zhi Zhou had skipped a grade when he was in elementary year 3.
Qiao Luo was exceptionally outstanding among his peers in the arts aspect, but he felt that it was very unjustified that his academic grades were only this ordinary. Furthermore, when it reached the end of his elementary year 1, he could not keep up with the teacher’s pace at all. Father and Mother Qiao could only let him repeat another year of elementary year 1.
And thus, when Qiao Luo was in elementary year 1, Fu Zhi Zhou was already in junior high year 1. When Qiao Luo was in junior high 1, Fu Zhi Zhou was just admitted into college.
Qiao Luo felt very indignant. The truth of reality was just so cold and heartless.
Fu Zhi Zhou had good grades since young, but Qiao Luo just couldn’t make it. When it was time for the final exam in junior high, Qiao Luo was not confident that he could enter his desired senior high school.
When the results were released, he found out that he passed with the bare minimum and got in. He was so happy, he was basically boucing about. He gave Fu Zhi Zhou a call, wanting to hear a praise, “I managed to enter your senior high school! Daddy and mommy said that they are going to eat out and will be bringing Grandpa Fu along, are you coming?”
Fu Zhi Zhou replied coldly, “What’s so exciting about it? Not going.”
Qiao Luo felt aggrieved and stayed silent for a while. He pitifully dragged out an “oh” sound and said, “Okay then… I’ll hang up now.”
Fu Zhi Zhou held onto the phone tightly and coughed a little, feeling uneasy as he squeezed out a line, “Ke1, then, congrats to you. Hanging up now.”
Saying so, he ended the call himself.
This careless and perfunctory congratulation could not save Qiao Luo’s mood. He ate his meal unhappily. Grandpa Fu was the first to realise what had happened, so he started coaxing Qiao Luo without even batting an eyelid, “Zhi Zhou said that he was busy with his final internship and can’t make it back. He had me order Luo Luo a cake to celebrate. I forgot to mention it, but Luo Luo, this cake is given to you by your Zhou Zhou gege.”
Qiao Luo was almost 16 years old and wasn’t as gullible as he was back when he was 3 years old. He knew that this cake had not a single strand of connection to Fu Zhi Zhou, but still, he dug out a big scoop of the cake, “Thank you Grandpa Fu.”
Mother Qiao said gladly, “Zhi Zhou is already in college. I thought that since you two kids don’t meet often, you guys would become distant from one another.”
Grandpa Fu said, “Our Luo Luo liked to stick to Zhi Zhou from a young age and I think that’s pretty good. They will have each other as company when they grow old.”
He looked at Qiao Luo and said, “Right, Luo Luo?”
Qiao Luo thought disgruntledly, he still refuses to meet me.
After coming home from the meal, he saw two cars parked outside of Grandpa Fu’s house. They were very familiar and it looked just like the model that Fu Zhi Zhou uses.
Passing over the windshield, he saw a small dinosaur with a very big tail hanging from it.
Qiao Luo couldn’t be more familiar with this dinosaur. This was something he had personally chose.
It was when Fu Zhi Zhou was in the second year of college. He just got his driving license and bought a car. Qiao Luo immediately ran to pick out a hanging pendant2 to give Fu Zhi Zhou, “This dinosaur tail is very long. Grandpa Fu always says that I’m like your little tail. This little tail can’t follow you wherever so when you look at this dinosaur, you must remember me!”
Fu Zhi Zhou at that time had rejected him with a terrible expression, “Very ugly.”
Qiao Luo said unashamedly, “Luo Luo is cute, but you can’t bring me away—— Aiya, comparing this with Luo Luo, it will obviously be very ugly, but it has a tail, A TAIL!”
Fu Zhi Zhou had on a face that was looking at someone retarded, “In others’ car, they hang a doll for good weather or a safety amulet, and I’m going to hang this incomparably ugly dinosaur? This is a new car! Qiao Luo, just what are you thinking?”
Qiao Luo took back the dinosaur and carefully scanned it for a while. He softly and aggrievedly asked, “Is it really very ugly?”
Fu Zhi Zhou finished mocking it but for better or for worse, he still accepted the dinosaur, saying, “Forget it, forget it. Just give it to me.”
Just based on his scornful appearance, Qiao Luo thought that this dinosaur would have been stuffed into some random corner, unable to see the daylight ever again. He hadn’t expected that Fu Zhi Zhou would really hang it up.
Qiao Luo became really excited, and having the exact same bearing he had when he waited for Fu Zhi Zhou to leave school at 3 years old, he ran straight into the house and pounced right into Fu Zhi Zhou’s bosom, “You’re back!”
Qiao Luo was about 170cm, unlike that small bean when he was still a glutinous dumpling. This collision made Fu Zhi Zhou stumble back and he glared at Qiao Luo once he regained his footing, “Can you be a little more quiet3?”
Qiao Luo rubbed his head onto Fu Zhi Zhou’s bosom just like a small puppy acting cute, “That’s because I miss you.”
Fu Zhi Zhou was greatly angered, just what did this young animal want? Oh, just because he got into senior high he thought that he could do whatever he wanted? What was he calling ‘you’ for? When he was young, every word that came out was ‘Zhou Zhou gege’. So now that he grew up, he stopped calling that, was it!
Qiao Luo made Fu Zhi Zhou, who was in the midst of preparing his internship materials, recall how pitiful he (QL) sounded on the phone so he made a special trip, rushing all the way down!
Fu Zhi Zhou had a cold expression on as he put Qiao Luo down and ignored him. When he turned his head to look at Grandpa Fu, Mother and Father Qiao, his expression became more polite and warmer, “Uncle, Aunty, Luo Luo did well in his exam, congratulations.”
Before Father Qiao could say anything, Qiao Luo’s little head drilled out and only lacked the words “praise me” written directly on his face.
Fu Zhi Zhou remained silent for a while and then pulled Qiao Luo’s collar, saying, “Follow me upstairs, I have something for you.”
Qiao Luo immediately followed stickily. He was so close that all that was left was for him, was to hang onto Fu Zhi Zhou’s back and let him carry him up. He turned his head back and said to his parents, “I’m staying! I’m staying here!”
And so, Mother and Father Qiao returned back to their world of two.
Without the adults around, Qiao Luo’s coquettish act became even more unreserved. He rubbed Fu Zhi Zhou’s hand, unwilling to let go, mumbling his resentment, “Why do you always not come home?”
It was still that ‘you’!!
Fu Zhi Zhou was even angrier. He swept a glance at Qiao Luo, giving him a final fatal blow, “I’m not coming back during summer vacation too.”
Qiao Luo was at a loss, “Ah? What would I do then?”
Fu Zhi Zhou looked at him silently.
Qiao Luo said unhappily, “My mom said that she would bring me overseas during the summer holiday and I wanted to bring you along too.”
Fu Zhi Zhou took out a big box and placed it next to Qiao Luo’s feet. He rejected his invitation, “Not going.”
After that, he opened the box. Inside was neatly placed books that were all new and thick, “Everything in this box are the materials I used for my studies last time. You can review them when you attend school. This book here is a gift I picked out for you, to congratulate you for entering senior high.”
Qiao Luo felt like he had nothing to live for—— That was a book titled《 A 3 Years Stimulation For The 5 Years College Entrance Examination》.
T/N: THIS TSUNDERE IS KILLIN ME!! OUT OF FRUSTRATION!! But let’s hope he turns more dere than tsun~ also same, Luo Luo, I would have very much hated to read that book too when I was 16 years old.
