"Sister, how about this, whether it’s feasible or not, I’ll give you a definite answer on the fifteenth. I feel really bad dragging everyone along."
The little girl is an honest person. Even when she knows there’s no one else but her, she doesn’t take advantage to raise her value but instead gives a definite date from the other party’s perspective.
"Alright then, I’ll wait for your call." Zhang Ziweng knows well that although Nuonuo appears gentle and easygoing, she’s actually a very opinionated little girl. Hearing her firm response, he didn’t try to persuade her further.
Nuonuo sighed with relief, hung up the phone, and carefully slipped into the inner room, afraid of waking the sleeping Little Treasure who’s snoring softly.
She tiptoed to tidy up the dishes into the kitchen, washed them, opened the fridge to check, saw a few fresh mangoes she just bought, and swiftly made two servings of mango milkshake. She put one in the fridge, took one out herself.
Little Treasure turned over, probably feeling a bit cold from the low air conditioning, curling up a bit.
Nuonuo put down the milkshake, climbed to the storage cabinet to get a thin blanket to cover him, and sat not far away, leaning against the sofa with the laptop on her knees, sipping the milkshake in one hand and browsing the web.
The online QQ kept flashing an avatar; Nuonuo clicked it to see that it’s the high school classmate interested in Little Treasure.
Xinxin Thriving: Si Han, are you there?
Tian Xin: Yeah, just online.
Xinxin Thriving: Do you want to go swimming tomorrow?
Si Han rembered that last ti, when a big group of them including Little Treasure went out to play, Little Treasure ntioned he loved swimming, and unexpectedly, this classmate nad Xinxin rembered.
Tian Xin: I have to go to class tomorrow, probably no ti.
Little Treasure clearly expressed no interest in girls older than him, so she naturally wouldn’t force him to join her classmates.
Xinxin Thriving: Alright then... I’ll see if other classmates have ti, or if you guys go swimming anyti, you can invite !
Xinxin’s intentions were quite obvious; she’s not interested in swimming but in Little Treasure. Nuonuo knew, she can’t even swim.
Tian Xin: Sure, if we go, we’ll invite you. But, we mostly swim at ho.
Nuonuo wasn’t trying to show off having a private pool but wanted to cut off Xinxin’s hopeless hopes.
Xinxin didn’t respond further and soon her avatar dimd.
Nuonuo didn’t mind much; she’s no fool and naturally wouldn’t make her baby brother uncomfortable just to please a classmate.
Nuonuo set QQ to invisible and then searched a bunch of reports about Director Sun and Fang Kai.
Initially, she thought since Fang Kai was so popular and skilled, he must be at least twenty-six or twenty-seven, but the encyclopedia showed he’s only twenty-one, even younger than Da Bao by a year.
Nuonuo was curious and looked at his biography, finding out he ca from a poor background, dropped out after middle school due to his family’s poverty and followed his uncle to the city to work at a construction site. By chance, Director Sun noticed him, and after playing the lead role in "Fiery," he quickly shot to fa. After becoming very popular, he took a step back and was secretly sent by Director Sun to learn acting abroad for two years. When he returned at eighteen, he already had the deanor of a seasoned actor, performing with great skill, and quickly rose to fa, developing across music, film, and television, becoming one of the most popular stars in the mainland.
After reading his encyclopedia entry, Nuonuo felt like she was watching a youthful inspirational drama, full of positive energy.
She couldn’t help but be curious, how could the female lead perform normally when acting against such an skilled, handso, and charismatic guy?
Perhaps, many girls would be infatuated with such a handso guy?
Of course, she’s an exception.
Because, there are just too many handso guys around her.
She has the mature, domineering CEO type in her dad and uncle, the sunny and successful type in Brother Da Bao, and the charming rogue type in Little Treasure brother.
Having grown up surrounded by handso guys, her immunity to them is impressively high.
After reading the gossip about Fang Kai and Director Sun, Nuonuo clicked on a famous website to check the news and was startled by a big red headline.
[Beijing’s First Major Family Yang’s Inheritance Drama Officially Unfolds]
"Little Treasure, Little Treasure..." in panic, Nuonuo nudged the sleeping Little Treasure with her foot.
"Hmm?" Little Treasure made a nasal sound but continued lying unmoved.
"Little Treasure, get up and see if this is true?"
Unable to hold back, Nuonuo bent over, grabbed his shoulder, and pulled hard on his clothes.
Little Treasure finally unwillingly opened his eyes, slowly sat up, wiped his sleepy eyes with the back of his hand, and Nuonuo already had the laptop in front of him, "Little Treasure, look!"
Little Treasure slightly frowned; after a while, his scattered gaze concentrated on the screen.
"Oh..." Little Treasure glanced lightly at the headline on the screen, noncommittally uttered one word, pushed away the laptop, scratched his head with one hand, and stood up with another hand.
Nuonuo was extrely anxious; what does this "oh..." even an?
She’s anxious and followed behind Little Treasure, holding the laptop.
"Brother, can you say sothing, is it true or false?"
Little Treasure spent more than half a year working in Beijing with his uncle, and although after the sumr vacation, he didn’t imdiately return ho, he stayed to help his uncle. So, Nuonuo felt, Little Treasure surely knows about this matter.
Little Treasure didn’t speak, walked all the way while scratching his head, and suddenly stopped in front of the bathroom, causing Nuonuo to bump into his hard back, unable to stop her steps.
"Ugh!" Nuonuo rubbed her nose, which was hurt from the bump.
"Let brush my teeth and wash my face before I tell you!"
Grumpy after waking up, Little Treasure finally gave a hint, took a stride into the bathroom, and closed the door with a "bang".
Nuonuo had no choice but to bring the laptop back to the living room, then rembered to check the details of the report.
Opening the detailed report, it said the Old Master Yang had already turned over a hundred, long ceased managing the Yang Family. Originally, the Yang Family should’ve been managed by the Old Master’s son’s generation, but it ended up being controlled by the grandson Yang Sheng. Thus, a few brothers and sisters from the son’s generation united early in the morning on the board eting to propose that Yang Sheng should hand over the power. Due to this issue, Old Master Yang beca enraged and fell ill, currently still fighting for his life in the ergency room, condition unknown...
Originally, Nuonuo was quite calm reading the earlier part of the report because she knew little about these power and money disputes and thus couldn’t empathize. But when she read the part about Old Master Yang getting sick, she couldn’t stay calm anymore!
