“Her? Help me?” Yu Chulin thought.

He found it rather laughable. In the past, Yu Chulin only knew Li Jianyue through what Li Jianqian mentioned about her. And in the words of his good friend, Li Jianqian, his sister only had three unique traits. Namely, she was stupid, dumb, and foolish.

Back then, Yu Chulin naively thought that Li Jianqian was only joking when he said that. However, based on his interactions with Li Jianyue these past few days…

“Hmm. She is indeed quite adorably dumb,” he thought. “But it’s not as bad as Li Jianqian put it.”

Actually, since he was a child, Yu Chulin never liked to play with girls, but after hearing Li Jianyue’s suggestion, he pursed his lips and eventually nodded his head in agreement. “Keep quiet, and just sit there and watch.”

“Oh, Brother Chu, you really know how to fix it, then?” Li Jianyue still felt rather doubtful. “I heard that it’s very complicated to put this tank together. Even my dad took several minutes to assemble it when he brought it home.”

“How long is ‘several minutes’?” he asked.

“How long?” Li Jianyue couldn’t put an exact number to it, and when she heard the question, her tiny face flushed red. “It’s just several minutes,” she said.

Yu Chulin laughed out loud, then sat down cross-legged once again.

Li Jianyue blinked her eyes as she watched how focused Yu Chulin appeared to be. “Brother Chu, your eyelashes are really long,” she commented.

Yu Chulin didn’t react. He continued staring at the object in his hands with a slight frown on his tiny face.

“Brother Chu, I caught you, so it’s your turn to be the ghost now.”

“Yeah, give me a moment,” Yu Chulin replied. He seemed slightly frustrated.

“Brother Chu, how did you know to hide here? Did my brother teach you?”

Li Jianyue felt that it was already very smart to be able to think of such a hiding place, but what was smarter, she thought, was the fact that she herself could actually remember that there was such a hiding place. This made her feel smarter than them.

Yu Chulin mindlessly acknowledged her with a wave of his hand as he stared fixedly at the tank in his hands, not shifting his gaze away from it.

“I knew it. Brother Chu, isn’t my brother amazing? The adults say that my brother’s ability to learn is as great as what his academic results show, and they all say that my brother is very, very smart. He could skip grades again next year.”

Li Jianyue propped her face on her hands and watched Yu Chulin as he busied himself with the task at hand. She pouted her tiny lips and said, “If only I was as amazing as my brothers. I also want the adults to praise me. Oh… Brother Chu, do you feel happy when the adults praise you?”

Yu Chulin frowned and looked up to take a glance at her. When Li Jianyue realized that he was finally looking at her, she grinned and said, “Brother Chu, were you also stupid in the past and only became smarter afterward?”

“No.”

“I don’t believe you,” Li Jianyue pouted. “Nanny Rong says that every child needs to learn. I’m very smart, but because my brothers are boys, they’re past the stupid ladder.”

“Did you mean ‘stage’?”

When Li Jianyue heard this, she immediately understood and nodded her head. She grinned and said, “Yes! Stage. The portion of the ladder.”

Yu Chulin: “…”

“Brother Chu, you haven’t answered me yet. Do you feel very happy when the adults praise you?”

“I’m used to it, so I don’t feel anything.” Yu Chulin’s reply was clear and simple.

Li Jianyue pouted her tiny lips. “My brother said the same thing, too. Only Brother Mosen tells me the truth.”

“What did Mosen say to you?”

“He said that he’s happy. He’s as happy as I feel when I’m praised by others.” Li Jianyue’s smile reached her eyes.

When Yu Chulin heard this, he smiled without looking up and said, “He lied to you.”
