Chapter 18
Liu Hua curled her fingers and flicked the little girl\'s forehead: "Where did you grow up, still just this tiny."
The little girl didn\'t care about all that: "Sui Yan is already four and a half!"
Liu Hua was too lazy to argue with her: "Xiao Zhi Xiao Ze, go do your homework, it\'s time to eat soon."
Sui Zhi put down the child he was holding: "Okay."
Sui Yan looked left and right, then threw her arms around Sui Zhi\'s leg: "Brother, I want to do homework too!"
Liu Hua pulled her off: "Don\'t make trouble, you\'ll disrupt your brother if you go over there while he does homework."
The little girl looked aggrieved: "Mum, I won\'t bother brother, I promise I\'ll be very well-behaved!"
Qiao Ze ruffled the little girl\'s hair: "Auntie, Sui Yan is very well-behaved."
Liu Hua felt utterly helpless with them: "Fine fine fine, go on then...Sui Yan, remember to be good and read your books properly, understand?"
Sui Yan cheered: "Okay!"
Sui Zhi teased her: "Does Sui Yan recognize words? What book do you want to read?"
Qiao Ze looked at Sui Zhi disdainfully: "Sui Yan recognizes a lot of words, she reads auntie\'s books every time."
Most of Liu Hua\'s books were about medicine and pharmacy, which was also why Qiao Ze ended up becoming a doctor later.
Sui Yan craned her neck arrogantly: "Brother, I\'m very awesome!"
Sui Zhi bent down and pinched her cheek: "Can you understand what you read then?"
Sui Yan was a bit confused: "Sometimes I understand, sometimes I don\'t!"
Qiao Ze didn\'t take her words to heart: "Sui Yan is already very impressive."
Sui Zhi picked her up: "Yes, our Sui Yan is the most remarkable."
Sui Yan shook her head: "Brother, I\'m not that amazing!"
The three of them walked towards the study. As soon as they entered, they saw Sui Yu sitting in front of the computer, typing unhurriedly on the keyboard.
Hearing the sound, Sui Yu glanced up at them. The moment he saw Sui Yan, his eyes softened. He beckoned: "Sui Yan, come here."
The little girl struggled to get down from Sui Zhi\'s arms. She patted Sui Zhi and Qiao Ze\'s shoulders solemnly: "Brothers, remember to do your homework properly!"
After speaking, she trotted happily over to Sui Yu.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Sui Yu picked Sui Yan up and sat her on his lap: "Brother is looking up study materials."
Qiao Ze casually placed the book Sui Yan read most often in front of her: "Sui Yan, you can continue reading this book."
After speaking, he went with Sui Zhi to do their middle school homework. Though they didn\'t really want to, they still needed to set a good example for the little girl.
Sui Yan looked at the two sitting at the desks starting their homework, then glanced at Sui Yu\'s complex computer screen. She silently picked up her book and started reading.
Sui Yu couldn\'t help smiling as he stroked the little girl\'s head. Sui Yan was really well-behaved, sitting properly reading her book.
Sui Zhi and Qiao Ze occasionally looked up at her. She remained quiet and composed the whole time.
Sui Yu had a gentle expression on his face, no longer cold and aloof. He looked at the piles of data on his screen, his long fingers nimbly typing on the keyboard.
Liu Man walked into the study and saw this harmonious scene. She lightly knocked on the doorframe and softly said: "Time to eat dinner."
Sui Yu turned off his computer and stood up, still holding Sui Yan. He bounced the child in his arms: "Let\'s go little one, time for dinner."
Sui Yan looked at him blankly, still a little confused: ". . . Brother?"
Sui Zhi and Qiao Ze also sped up their writing to follow Sui Yu out.
Sui Yan lay slumped on Sui Yu\'s shoulder, looking back at the two boys: "Hurry up, brothers!"
Walking downstairs, Liu Hua glanced at the few children and frowned: "Sui Yan, don\'t let your brother carry you everywhere."
Sui Yu quickly said: "It\'s me who wanted to carry Sui Yan, mum."
Liu Hua rolled her eyes: "You all just spoil your sister, she\'ll definitely get spoiled rotten sooner or later."
Hearing this, Sui Zhi came down the stairs and righteously declared: "Mum, a little sister is precisely meant to be pampered. Otherwise when she grows up a lousy punk from another family might swindle her away."
Qiao Ze echoed wholeheartedly: "True."
Liu Hua reflected carefully and decided not to interfere with these matters anymore. How could she let her precious baby girl get casually tricked away by some lousy punk?
The focus of their conversation looked at them blankly: "Mum, what are you guys talking about?"
Liu Hua said impatiently: "We\'re saying Sui Yan is a silly little girl."
The little girl huffed angrily: "Am not!"
Sui Yu played along: "You\'re right, Sui Yan\'s not a silly little girl...she\'s a stupid silly girl."
Sui Yan: "..." Well that still didn\'t sound very nice.
With a few excited yaps, Ti Zi came bounding over to Sui Yu\'s feet.
Sui Yan was taken by surprise. She tugged urgently at Sui Yu\'s arm and peered down: "Ti Zi! Where were you? I didn\'t see you all day!"
Sui Yu set her down so she could talk to Ti Zi.
Ti Zi felt utterly helpless. It only took one nap in the garden and the kid completely forgot about it!
Sui Yan felt no guilt at all. Clumsily, she picked up the wolf cub and cooed: "Ti Zi, don\'t run off again in future. You might get caught by bad people."
Liu Hua snorted in laughter: "And who was it that secretly ran out previously?"
The little girl froze briefly before continuing her conversation with the wolf cub: "Ti Zi, as long as you don\'t make the same mistake again, it\'ll be okay!"
Liu Hua rolled her eyes again, about to head to the dining room when she suddenly asked curiously: "Do you guys feel something strange about this puppy? It seems a little weird."
Sui Yan hugged Ti Zi tightly: "Not weird, not weird! Mum Ti Zi is just like this!"
The three brothers were shocked. They quickly said: "Mum, Ti Zi probably lived in the wild before. That\'s why it seems different from other little dogs."
Liu Hua didn\'t dwell on it: "Forget it, let\'s hurry up and eat!"
Ti Zi silently snuggled closer to the little girl.
Gah, it was almost discovered by Sui Yan\'s mum!
Liu Man behind still felt confused as she headed towards the dining room.
She also felt there was something odd about this little pup...how strange indeed.
In the middle of eating dinner, the front door was suddenly knocked on.
Liu Man jogged over and opened the door. She saw Ye Anning standing outside with a nonchalant look.
"Big sister Liu Man, has Sui Yan finished dinner?" The girl asked very politely.
Liu Man smiled lightly: "Sui Yan has only just started eating. Does Anning want to come in and wait for her?"
