However, this scene did not escape the eyes of Gu Zheng, who had been paying attention to his movements. The moment she saw the white paper flash by, the last big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
It really is a love letter…she thought.
Lin Anyu also secretly kept an eye on things, but his reaction was slower than Guzheng's. He only saw Han Zhou hiding something in his arms with a sneaky look on his face.
It really is a pornographic book… he thought.
……
After moving all the things to the new house and cleaning it inside and out, the moving process is basically completed.
Han Zhou could handle the rest of the things by himself, so there was no need to trouble Gu Zheng and Lin Anyu. He had originally planned to cook a meal to thank them, but of course there were no ingredients in the refrigerator in the new house, and it was a bit late to go shopping for groceries, so he simply invited them out to eat and planned to show off his cooking skills at Lin Youya's house in the afternoon.
He attached great importance to his new skill of "Mastering Cooking" and decided to cook more often in the next few days to study the probability of making delicious food when he was focused.
Although the skill introduction states that the probability of producing fine food is 30%, it also mentions later that this will fluctuate depending on the properties of the ingredients. He does not know the criteria for judging the properties of the ingredients, so he can only use practice to determine the range of fluctuations.
Several people found a restaurant outside to eat. During the meal, Han Zhou gave Gu Zheng Ye Cheng's souvenir, which was a bracelet for praying for peace. Then he went to Lin Youya's house and met the mighty general whom he had not seen for a long time.
This brown curly-haired teddy bear seemed a little fatter than the last time we met. It still looked lazy, lying on the floor motionless.
The host, Lin Youya, also lay motionless on the table, his chubby arms hugging his head, with a look of despair on his face.
"General Mighty, why can't you talk like the animals in the cartoons? I saw a cat helping its owner with housework a few days ago. Why can't you help me with my homework?"
The mighty general didn't even raise his head, his black button-like eyes revealed dullness and stupidity. Obviously, even if he really learned to speak one day, he would not be able to do homework.
Lin Youya had a sad face. He got up and struggled to look at the exercise book in front of him for a long time. Then he picked up the pen with a melancholy look on his face, as if he was a seriously injured soldier who had to pick up his sword to fight again.
After opening the door and entering the house, Lin Anyu tiptoed behind his sister and was amused. He said with a smile: "You are quite self-conscious today. You started doing your homework so early."
"Big-headed Garlic! I told you not to come behind me and talk..."
The sudden sound startled Lin Youya. She frowned and looked behind her, preparing to teach this stupid cousin a lesson, but the next second she saw Han Zhou and Guzheng behind him.
She was overjoyed and stood up excitedly, with a happy smile on her face: "Brother Han Zhou, Sister Guzheng!"
"Hello, Yaya."
Gu Zheng curved her eyes and stepped forward, gently rubbing the girl's head, "I haven't seen you for a month, you have grown taller."
"Really?" Lin Youya's face was full of surprise.
"Really?" Gu Zheng smiled, "You will definitely become a tall beauty in the future."
Lin Youya was very happy to hear this. She tilted her head and asked, "Sister Guzheng, are you very happy today?"
"Is there?" Gu Zheng was stunned.
“Yes, yes!” Lin Youya nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and said with certainty, “I feel like you look particularly happy today!”
"Maybe it's because I met you, Yaya." Gu Zheng said in a cheerful tone.
As she spoke, she cast her gaze towards the mighty general lying on the ground. Her eyes suddenly curved into crescents. She squatted down and rubbed his head angrily: "Long time no see, mighty general. Have you gained weight?"
"She seems really happy..."
Lin Anyu looked suspicious and whispered to Han Zhou.
"I am very happy." Han Zhou smiled, "Isn't this good?"
"I didn't say it was bad, but there must be a reason... Never mind."
Lin Anyu shrugged, and suddenly felt someone tugging at the corner of his clothes. He looked down and saw Lin Youya looking up at him eagerly. He wondered, "Why are you staring at me?"
"Where are the things you bought for me?" Lin Youya stretched out her hand.
Lin Anyu was stunned: "What is that?"
"You promised me yesterday!"
"I promised to bring Brother Han Zhou and Sister Gu Zheng back to play with you. Haven't I brought them back to you now?"
"That's not what I'm talking about!"
Seeing Lin Anyu's bewildered expression, Lin Youya said angrily, "Where's my Yiyena doll?"
"Yi Ye Na..." Lin Anyu pondered for a while, then suddenly realized, "I remember now, are you talking about the squirrel that can only use its tail as a parachute?"
"What else?" Lin Youya looked at him suspiciously, "Did you forget to buy it?"
"Well, well..." Lin Anyu showed a guilty expression.
Lin Youya knew what was going on as soon as she saw it, and she turned her head away and sulked.
Lin Anyu said nothing until he saw his stupid cousin's face turned into a chubby one. Then he laughed and pinched her little face. Then he jumped back before she could counterattack and took out a squirrel doll from behind like a magic trick.
"Hahaha, isn't this what you're talking about?"
Lin Youya remained in a sulky posture, rolled her eyes and glanced at him stealthily, then ignored him.
“You don’t want it?” Lin Anyu shook the doll and sighed, “That’s such a pity. I heard that this is a special limited edition doll. If your sister Guzheng hadn’t been so lucky and won it in the lottery, you wouldn’t be able to buy it even if you wanted to.”
Lin Youya swallowed quietly.
"It's better not to have it. I just spent a lot of money on the lottery. I heard that this thing can be bought back at a high price. If I sell it, I can not only get back my money, but also make a small profit..."
Lin Anyu took out his cell phone and pretended to call someone. Seeing this, Lin Youya couldn't bear it anymore. She quickly snatched the doll and held it in her arms, tilting her head and continuing to sulk.
Lin Anyu knew she would react like this, and said with great joy: "I thought you really didn't want it anymore."
Lin Youya snorted coldly, and after two seconds she reluctantly said "thank you".
Lin Anyu thought to himself that I still can't control you, and suddenly said mysteriously: "Not only this limited edition doll, I also prepared an extra gift for you, guess what it is?"
Lin Youya's eyes lit up: "Is it Bai Yueya?"
This is an animated character from the same anime as Iyana, a beautiful and smart rabbit.
"What is that?" Lin Anyu shook his head. "No, no, guess again."
"Wanrihua?"
"No and no."
"food?"
"wrong."
"Toy?"
"It's getting close. Guess again."
"No more guessing, I can't guess it!"
"Okay, then you better watch out, I'm about to reveal the secret... Ding ding ding ding! Do you like it?"
Under Lin Youya's expectant eyes, Lin Anyu took out a brand new exercise book from behind as if unveiling a surprise.
The air was quiet for two seconds.
Lin Youya was trembling all over. He took the exercise book expressionlessly and rolled it into a stick viciously.
"Don't run if you have the guts!"
Lin Anyu was not going to listen. He ran away the moment he handed the exercise book to her.
Lin Youya roared angrily and chased after him with his short legs.
Han Zhou was watching from a state of amusement and tears, thinking that Lin Anyu was a combination of a human being and a mean person. If things continued like this, there was no telling when Yaya would be able to call him brother.

Chapter 209: Just a Cartoon
The huge room was quite noisy.
The tall and strong Lin Anyu was chased by Lin Youya, who had just entered junior high school. He jumped up and down. From time to time, he turned back and made faces, looking like he deserved a beating.
He was caught up before he could be proud for two minutes. He was hit on the buttocks several times and screamed in pain. He had to beg for mercy with a sad face and promised to buy back the dolls of Bai Yueya and Wan Rihua the next day. Only then did he appease his stupid cousin's anger.
Lin Youya was like a little rooster who had won a battle, full of pride and vigor. He taught his stupid cousin a lesson while poking his forehead with a rolled-up exercise book. However, he didn't feel proud for long when his face was pinched. He flew into a rage and started a new round of pursuit.
Han Zhou and Gu Zheng watched this scene with great interest. They could of course see that Lin Anyu was letting himself be caught up on purpose. If this guy really ran at full speed, the young Lin Youya would not be able to catch up with him even if he grew two more legs.
"You said that Lin Anyu dotes on Yaya so much, why does he have to do things to make that child angry?"
Guzheng hugged the mighty general and rubbed the dog's head angrily, as if she would not stop until the dog's head was bald.
After many unsuccessful attempts to escape, the mighty general had come to understand how terrifying this woman was. He gave up struggling completely and huddled lazily in her arms, his eyes half open and half closed, with a look of despair on his face.
Han Zhou smiled bitterly and replied, "Maybe this is his way of expressing his affection."
"Like those little boys at school who like to play tricks on the little girls they like?"
"...More or less. In fact, most of these teasing behaviors are to attract the attention of the girls they like. It's just that children don't know how to behave, and they express their love as hate."
Han Zhou was also a little boy and had experienced two childhoods. He would occasionally take time to observe the children around him and naturally understood the psychology of boys at that time.
Of course, he also knew that little boys at that time did not understand girls' psychology at all. Teasing girls was actually a very annoying thing. It was true that it could attract attention in many cases, but it would only have the opposite effect in improving favorability.
Occasionally, well-meaning jokes can improve relationships to a certain extent, but things like putting frogs and bugs in desks, giving ugly and derogatory nicknames, and burning other people's hair with a lighter are undoubtedly simply asking for trouble.
"How childish! I hated guys like this the most when I was a kid."
Guzheng curled her lips, obviously thinking of some unpleasant experiences.
Han Zhou laughed: "It's true that you are worthy of being hated, but you must have been a little bully when you were a child. Is there anyone who dares to tease you?"
"What do you mean by little bully? That's such a harsh word." Gu Zheng rolled her eyes at him unhappily, "I was just a bit naughty when I was little, but I didn't bully others everywhere."
"So there are brave warriors who are willing to play a trick on you?"
"Not really, but I often see people teasing other girls, and when that happens I'll take my brothers with me to fight for justice."
"Oh, there's a little brother here." Han Zhou stood in awe and said in amazement, "It turns out he's not the little bully, but the king of children."
"You could say that."
Guzheng smiled with eyes crooked and nostalgic, "Back then we often climbed trees, stole watermelons, caught insects, and sometimes went to the river to skip stones. I'm really good at skipping stones. I could make a stone bounce on the water dozens of times."
She looked at Han Zhou with pride.
"I know."
Han Zhou smiled. His "Powerful Throwing" skill was derived from the Guzheng. He knew that the other party had superb throwing skills. "If I'm not mistaken, you must be very accurate in throwing stones. Maybe you can accurately knock down the bird on the tree."
