Chapter 253: Chapter 253: I Like Big Brother the Most!
Lu Sheng glanced at Lu Ziye: "Third Brother."
Lu Ziye, seeing his sister calling him, very innocently handed the phone back to Lu Sheng: "...okay then."
Lu Sheng took the phone, opened the group chat, and located the earliest unread message.
Only then did she see that the eldest brother had tagged her in the group, asking why she didn’t want to have dinner, and if she was feeling unwell.
Then she saw that the second, fourth, and fifth brothers all said they were hurrying back home.
After that, she saw the third brother scolding the other brothers one by one, followed by saying that he had taken leave to come home early. He also said it didn’t matter if they didn’t come, as he could accompany her by himself.
...Well done.
With that squinting-eye smiling emoticon, the third brother really knew how to infuriate people.
"Eldest brother, I’m not feeling unwell," Lu Sheng said, "I just didn’t have much appetite, and since none of you were at home, I didn’t want to eat."
"I didn’t see the message before, so I didn’t know you all were worried and wanted to come back. Now there’s wind, thunder, and rain outside, I should let second and fourth brother know, and tell them not to come back."
"We’re already back." A voice suddenly came from outside the room.
Lu Sheng looked up and saw Lu Siyan wearing a casual coat and Lu Youming in a black hoodie entering the room.
The second brother still had a cold expression, and the fourth brother’s disheveled hair made the tear mole near his eyes stand out; in his hand, he carried a few take-out boxes.
"How did you two come back together?" Lu Jingyan looked at the two of them.
"Youye went to buy some desserts for Shengsheng, I drove over to pick him up."
Lu Siyan focused on Lu Sheng, his tone was one of tenderness he had never shown to others, "Is your stomach really okay? If something’s wrong, you have to tell your brother."
Lu Sheng immediately shook her head: "Really, it’s fine."
Lu Siyan then was relieved.
Originally, Lu Sheng’s room could be considered spacious, but suddenly with all five brothers entering the room, it immediately felt much more cramped. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
No one had eaten dinner yet. Lu Jingyan went out to change his shoes and clothes and arranged for the housekeeper to prepare dinner, to be delivered directly to Lu Sheng’s room.
Since Lu Ziye and Lu Youye wanted to watch TV with Lu Sheng, they might as well all eat and watch together.
Lu Siyan went to wash his hands and disinfect, and Lu Youming started to open the take-out boxes on the coffee table. As soon as Lu Sheng sat on the sofa, Lu Ziye naturally took a seat next to her.
Seeing this, Lu Youye quickly sat on Lu Sheng’s other side. However, as soon as he sat down, Lu Sheng stood up instead.
Seeing his sister stand up, Lu Youye felt an uppercase sense of grievance, feeling like he was being rejected.
"No, Shengsheng, why do you want to move away just as I sit down, don’t you want to be close to me, woo woo woo."
Seeing Lu Youye’s aggrieved almost crying face, Lu Sheng bent down and pinched his ear: "Brother, wait a moment."
Lu Sheng turned and went to the bathroom, and a few seconds later, Lu Youye saw her holding a new towel coming out, and couldn’t help but feel puzzled: "...Shengsheng?"
"Your hair got wet from the rain, you must have been in a hurry when you came back."
Lu Sheng stood in front of Lu Youye with the towel and spoke earnestly with her head lowered.
She placed the soft dry white towel over Lu Youye’s damp, tousled hair and gently rubbed and wiped it for him with a patient touch.
"...How could I not want to be close," Lu Sheng’s voice was soft, as if coaxing a child, "I like brother the most."
——Aoowoo!!!
I! Like! Brother! The! Most!
Which brother obsessed with his sister could withstand this!!! It’s so life-threatening!!!
Lu Youye immediately began to freak out, hugging his sister in front of him and started sobbing.
With puppy eyes tearful, "Woo woo woo, how can my sister be so adorable, I must have saved the world in my last life to have such a wonderful sister!"
"...You also have four great brothers, why don’t you mention them?" Lu Ziye supported his chin on the side and looked at Lu Sheng and Lu Youye with a tilted head.
"Speaking of which, it turns out that coming home wet from the rain gets one a personal towel drying by sister – ah, had I known, I would have come straight home in the rain."
Lu Ziye supported his chin and said with a smile.
"Third Brother! Can you not always be so scheming!"
Lu Youye, hearing Lu Ziye’s words, immediately began to complain indignantly, "Shengsheng is our sister, the five of us should compete for affection fairly!"
"Little fool, do you think only third brother is scheming?" Lu Ziye raised an eyebrow and motioned towards Lu Youming messing with the desserts, "Look—the desserts on the table."
"These treats are all things that Shengsheng ate more than two pieces of the last time at the restaurant; not only did fourth brother remember them all, but he also had them made into cute little bunny shapes. To touch a girl’s heart, it’s all about the details."
Hearing this, Lu Youye looked and saw so many desserts on the table, and his head felt overwhelmed.
No way, when was it that their whole family went to the restaurant and ate these desserts? Was it two months ago??
What kind of frightening memory was this to remember what the sister ate more than two bites of two months ago??
He couldn’t remember it to save his life, unless he reviewed it every day, woo woo woo.
Lu Youye didn’t even consider that it wasn’t just Lu Youming who remembered what desserts Lu Sheng liked and remembered until now, but also the seemingly indifferent third brother.
Once the housekeeper had prepared the whole dinner, Lu Sheng sat down with the five brothers by the coffee table to eat and watch TV.
Horror movies really weren’t appropriate to watch during meals.
Moreover, Lu Jingyan, fearing that Lu Youye would jump onto the coffee table in excitement, firmly requested to switch the horror movie to a variety show.
After all, the coffee table in Lu Sheng’s room cost fifty-eight thousand.
When Jiang Ting was changing furniture for Lu Sheng, she didn’t seek the best, only the most expensive.
Outside, the sky was gloomy, and the thunder and rain were deafening. Inside the house, the family gathered for dinner in a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
After dinner, everyone finished watching the chosen horror movie, "Never Provoke a Woman in a Red Wedding Dress Crossing the River."
Domestic horror films, scaring people relied entirely on BGM and lighting. During this time, Lu Youye shivered throughout, hugging Lu Sheng, relying on the sounds to decide whether to close or open his eyes.
And yet, he refused to leave and go back to his room, insisting on watching the full movie before leaving, his mouth the only thing that was tough.
When everyone went to sleep, it was almost two o’clock in the morning.
The room became completely quiet, and Lu Sheng stretched lazily. Glancing at the unyielding storm outside the window, she was about to go to bed when suddenly there was a knock on the door from a housekeeper outside her room.
"...Who is it?" It was so late, and Lu Sheng frowned slightly and asked the housekeeper outside.
"Miss, have you gone to bed?" The housekeeper said from outside the door, "A girl has suddenly arrived outside, saying she is here to see you."
