âBrodda!!!â A crisp, childish voice sounded outside the door. Huo Chenyu was writing some code and his fingers paused, immediately pushing his laptop screen down subconsciously.
Huo Chenyu sighed slightly and opened the door calmly. In the next second, a little âcannonballâ shot into his arms.
Ye Sang carelessly rubbed her little head which was hurting from the crash but stared at him brightly.
The young boy was puzzled.
âWhat are you doing?â Huo Chenyu pinched her soft cheeks and smiled, asking in a clear voice, âIs there a flower on my face?â
The little thing poked her fingers as she shook her head, trying to egg him on in a low voice, âBrodda brodda, do you want to go out?â
Huo Chenyu was confused. He raised an eyebrow and looked at her thoughtfully, âWhy would I want to go out?â
He was just trying to hack into the Zhao familyâs firewall but the little thing butted in halfway through writing the code.
Ye Sang tilted her head to the side and replied stickily, âBecause Sangsang thinks Brodda wants to go out.â
â... And how did you know that?â
The little thing blinked and tried to talk some reason into him, âOf course... the TV says that men all want the opposite of what they say, so Iâm guessing that Brodda wants to go out.â
The way that she looked like she was thinking âI donât need you to think so, but what I think soâ made Huo Chenyu was speechless.
He didnât even know where she got this weird logic from.
âWho do you want to see?â The young boy looked down and asked in a low voice.
Ye Sang stared for a second and tried to remember the name. She pouted, âShen Yanâan!â
âShen?
Huo Chenyuâs eyes darkened and grabbed the back of her collar gloomily, âYou arenât allowed to go.â
Ye Sang tried to move forward with her short legs, unwilling to give up, but her brother dragged her back easily.
â...â H-How rude!
Huo Chenyu pinched her soft face and looked at her pouting face,
âDid you know that he is Shen Chuchenâs nephew?â
âShen Chuchen?
Ye Sang looked up in excitement, âI know I know! Heâs that cheap uncle!â
Cheap uncle...
Huo Chenyu laughed uncontrollably.
âYou know and you have the guts to go there?â
The Shen family was a tigerâs nest to the little thing.
In a dangerous family like that, they could easily find themselves a tragic ending if they werenât careful.
The little thing moved her fingertips as she snuggled against him and explained, âBecause... Brodda Yanâan gave me the umbrella.â
âBrodda isnât bad, but... they all bully him...â Ye Sang rested in her brotherâs arms and stated in confusion.
The young boy looked down carelessly and smiled a little. He patted her back in a comforting way and his voice sounded unexpectedly bold,
âBecause heâs useless.â
He could only tolerate those who bullied him.
It was cruel to be born into big families like that.
After all, not all parents liked their children.
The little thing replied with âohâ in a stuffy voice, âThen Sangsang is useless too.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She couldnât win against that fatty.
Huo Chenyuâs movements froze but his eyes softened and smiled as he shook his head, âNo, you are different from him.â
The little thing looked at him in confusion, âBut why?â
âBecause...â Huo Chenyu pondered blankly for a second but he bent down to rubbed her face lightly with a smile, âBecause Sangsang is our treasure.â
A unique treasure.
Ye Sang blinked her cat eyes. She tilted her face upwards and mumbled in hesitation, â.....B-But, heâs also somebody elseâs treasure.â
