Chapter 264 Question
Looking at Xiao Yangzhi's busy back, Xu Mingyuan was also thoughtful.

In fact, Xu Mingyuan himself didn't know what was going on, and was led off the route by Xiao Yangzhi.

I still remember that woman's every smile and frown, which was full of charm. But the current Xiao Yangzhi naturally doesn't have her charm.

But even the occasional smile from Xiao Yangzhi would still cause Xu Mingyuan to lose focus for a moment, even though it didn't have the same flavor as he remembered.

It can be said that Xiao Yangzhi’s smile now comes from the heart, is very natural, and is even more beautiful.

The contrast was just too great and Xu Mingyuan couldn't accept it for a while.

If Xiao Yangzhi was still deceiving him, Xu Mingyuan could still accept it. After all, he would not have any psychological burden.

But Xiao Yangzhi didn't seem to be lying to him.

Even if Xu Mingyuan was a bit stupid, he shouldn't be unable to understand a little girl, right?

"Little Yangzhi." Xu Mingyuan shouted.

"Hmm? Brother, you called me?"

Yang Zhi was standing on a stool and hanging wind chimes on the wooden partition.

As soon as Yang Zhi heard Xu Mingyuan calling her, she squatted down with the help of the back of the chair and then stepped on the floor. Without even wearing slippers, she trotted over.

"Come on, smile for me."

Xu Mingyuan wanted to test Xiao Yangzhi to see if she had made any progress.

"what?"

Yang Zhi was stunned. He didn't expect that this was the reason. He scratched his hair in confusion.

"What? Laugh." Xu Mingyuan said.

"Oh……"

Yang Zhigan swallowed, as if he remembered the day when he first returned home with his brother. Just like now, he inexplicably forced himself to smile.

After thinking for a long time, Yang Zhi pursed his lips, barely raised the corners of his mouth, looked a little silly, and said: "Hey..."

"Ugh."

Xu Mingyuan lay limply on the sofa and sighed as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

Little Yangzhi no longer forced out a smile that was uglier than crying like she did before.

But her deliberate smile still seemed forced, without even a hint of flattery, it was just a forced smile.

"Brother, do I need to practice?" Yang Zhi asked carefully.

"no!"

Xu Mingyuan sat up straight and said with a frown.

"Oh……"

Yang Zhi shrank his head and stood aside, feeling at a loss again.

"Haha, I'm just kidding. Come on, I'll help you hang up."

Xu Mingyuan pinched her shoulders and kicked his slippers to her.

The little girl had a cold body and the floor was still very cold.

"Ah."

When Yang Zhi saw him giving her the slippers, she nodded vigorously.

At this moment, Xiao Yangzhi, with her starry eyes curved and a smile on the corners of her lips, was very beautiful, very natural, pure and a little happy, without any other meaning.

Now it was Xu Mingyuan's turn to be stunned.

After a moment, Xu Mingyuan shook his head as if amused but also helpless. In the end, he could only smile and rub her head and stopped thinking about it.

I helped Xiao Yangzhi tie the wind chime to the hollow part of the wooden partition. The octagonal wind chime is not as easy to ring as the aluminum tube wind chime. It will only make a crisp "ding-ling" sound when the windows are opened in both the north and south directions for ventilation.

Xiao Yangzhi has a mild obsessive-compulsive disorder. She tiptoed to move the thread that tied the wind chime. After adjusting it several times, she finally hung it in the middle and nodded with satisfaction.

"Brother, if you remember me, just poke it..."

Yang Zhi took a peek from the side of his eyes, then quickly looked at the wind chime, stood on tiptoe and poked it with his hand.

"Ha, then just hang it directly on my bedside." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"It will be very noisy, just like an alarm clock. It will get annoying after two days."

"You are such a cunning kid."

Xu Mingyuan pressed Xiao Yangzhi's head and rubbed it.

"Hmm? So this is called being too thoughtful..." Yang Zhi shrank his head, frowned and thought, and explained with a bit of grievance: "I didn't think so much, I just felt that it was not good to do so... Brother, am I wrong?"

"Haha, you did a good job. You are naturally likable. It's not that you did anything wrong."

Xu Mingyuan put his elbow on Xiao Yangzhi's thin shoulders and shook her with a smile.

"Brother, I hope you don't hate me." Yang Zhi said in a low voice.

"How could that be? I definitely don't hate it." Xu Mingyuan smiled.

"Ah."

Yang Zhi stretched out his finger and poked the wind chime. When he heard the clear and pleasant sound, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Under Xiao Yangzhi's careful care, the house seemed to have a different style, but it was hard to tell what had changed.

Only by chance, you will find a kitten doll half the size of a finger on the windowsill. There is also a little yellow duck on the shelf above the sink.

Yang Zhi also has a girlish heart, but she hides it very well, keeping everything in her heart and not wanting outsiders to see it easily.

Yang Zhi, who had lived with Xu Mingyuan for two years and had no life experience at first, still didn't have much experience at this time, but she knew how to care for others.

When Yang Zhi saw what was missing from Xu Mingyuan's little home, she thought about what she had at home and helped to fill the gaps.

Tao Shuxin became a little lazy because of Xu Mingyuan. She used the kitchen at home only a few times. She cooked twice on a whim and never touched it again.

To be honest, Tao Shuxin's cooking skills are much better than Xiao Yangzhi's.

At least she knows how to add light soy sauce, sweet and sour sauce and MSG, and stir-fry a dish, which is better than Xiao Yangzhi who only knows how to add oil and salt.

Although Xiao Yangzhi's cooking skills are not good enough, she likes to cook at home. Even if the taste is average, she will think it is delicious.

Xu Mingyuan had no choice but to accompany Xiao Yangzhi to eat noodles.

In fact, if you eat too much meat and fish, it feels good to eat some noodles with clear soup occasionally.

"You're not going to do your homework?"

Seeing that there was a pile of papers in Xiao Yangzhi's schoolbag and she just took out an English textbook to memorize some words, Xu Mingyuan asked casually.

"You can write anytime..." Yang Zhi said as she leaned towards Xu Mingyuan and fell softly on his legs.

The sofa bought by the small family is more comfortable than the one at home, but Yang Zhi feels uncomfortable. This is not her home. Everything around her is strange. Only her brother's arms feel familiar.

In that case, just get into his arms.

Xu Mingyuan suddenly realized that it was as if he had gone back to half a year ago.

The corner sofa is like a cushion where you can rest your legs.

Little Yangzhi held the textbook and lay on his legs, just like a kitten, rubbing against it from time to time, and then half of his body would come in.

But people always change. Xiao Yangzhi, who is already seventeen years old and about to enter adulthood, looks more and more handsome.

Although he was very light, he had gained some weight, and Xu Mingyuan could no longer fail to notice it.

The only pity is that Xiao Yangzhi's breasts are still not big. Xu Mingyuan doubts that the fluctuations in her memory are purely created by the bra.

Just like she was now, affected by gravity, she became flat as soon as she lay down. Even the sponge bra was squeezed into a dent by the sweatshirt.

Xiao Yangzhi seemed to have noticed this as well, and pulled up her sweatshirt inadvertently.

Xu Mingyuan found it funny, but he accepted his fate.

Xiao Yangzhi is a girl with a pure appearance. She seldom gives people a sense of desire. There is nothing wrong with being small. At least she is very cute.

After a while, I realized that Xiao Yangzhi had not turned the pages of the book for a long time.

Xu Mingyuan lowered his head and saw that Xiao Yangzhi's eyes were gradually becoming unfocused and his arms were bending down.

She got up very early today and didn't sleep at noon or in the afternoon, so she must be feeling sleepy. Xu Mingyuan took the book from her hand and covered her eyes.

"Brother, I'm not that sleepy."

Yang Zhi didn't dodge, but just spoke in a low voice.

"Have some sleep. I'll get you a blanket."

"Um... No, if I fall asleep now, I'll wake up in the middle of the night. Actually, I'm fine. I'll be even more sleepy at school than I am now."

Yang Zhi got up, rubbed his eyes, and seeing that the clock pointed to seven o'clock in the evening, he picked up his schoolbag and prepared to do his homework.

"Come on, I'll take you to write."

Xu Mingyuan took the schoolbag from her.

I usually don’t have time to accompany Xiao Yangzhi, and her high school courses are also tight, so I have even less time.

It was a rare opportunity for them to be alone together, so Xu Mingyuan always took her feelings into consideration.

Xu Mingyuan knew very well that Xiao Yangzhi's needs were few and she just wanted a moment of peace of mind.

"Brother, don't you watch the news?"

Feeling as if he had delayed him, Yang Zhi asked carefully.

"The Internet is developing so fast now. If you want to read today's news, you can just search it and it will come out."

"Ah."

Now Yang Zhi felt relieved and followed Xu Mingyuan to the small study.

The study room was originally set up for study and work, but when Tao Shuxin was there, she would drag Xu Mingyuan to play games, so he usually used a laptop when working.

When Xiao Yangzhi came, she sorted out the papers and notebooks and created a new study atmosphere in the room.

"Don't you sit in the computer chair?"

Seeing that she pulled out the wooden chair opposite instead of sitting next to him, Xu Mingyuan asked.

"If I feel comfortable sitting down, I won't want to write."

Yang Zhi sorted out the papers by herself and sat down opposite Xu Mingyuan.

"Then don't write it. It's okay."

"Well... let's write something."

Yang Zhi didn't have the nerve to do what Xu Mingyuan did and just say she wouldn't hand in her homework. She wanted to continue to be an unknown person.

In fact, Xu Mingyuan's presence nearby had already distracted Yang Zhi's attention. Yang Zhi's learning efficiency was highest only when he was not around.

After all, Xu Mingyuan could no longer teach her anything. Yang Zhi occasionally couldn't help but tilt her head, bypassing the monitor, and secretly glance at him to see what he was doing.

Xu Mingyuan thought that Xiao Yangzhi wanted him to accompany her to study, so after browsing the web for a while, he walked over, pulled out a wooden chair, and sat down next to her.

Now, Yang Zhi had no more energy to write the test paper.

"Hiss, how are you doing with your studies lately? I forgot to ask Mr. Gao."

Seeing that she wrote very slowly, Xu Mingyuan frowned and said.

Now he has handed over Xiao Yangzhi's study tasks to his father. As an older brother, it is not appropriate for him to always perform the duties of a parent as this may easily cause unnecessary gossip.

"I only ranked third in the class in the monthly exam, which is a bit poor..."

Yang Zhi bit her lips lightly. Xu Mingyuan was beside her, so she couldn't help but move closer to him, thinking that she could practice her calligraphy there.

"Not bad. If I keep it up, I'll be able to get into a good university."

Third place in the class is already very good, and seeing that her grades have not dropped, Xu Mingyuan felt relieved.

"Ah."

Hearing this, Yang Zhi shook his head, trying to get rid of the water in his brain and not wanting to think about all that messy stuff anymore.

It was very pleasant to spend time with Xiao Yangzhi. She had a temperament that could calm people down.

Sometimes Xu Mingyuan would feel that it was pretty good to live his life like this. No matter what kind of storms he experienced outside, when he returned home, Xiao Yangzhi would keep everything calm.

However, Xu Mingyuan's idea was naive, and Xiao Yangzhi quickly gave him a difficult question.

Xiao Yangzhi, as graceful as a lotus emerging from the water, walked out of the bathroom and changed into the pajamas bought by Tao Shuxin.

Although Tao Shuxin had never worn this pajamas, she had always fumigated it with sachets, and it was full of the scent of lavender.

Xiao Yangzhi didn't use a hair dryer, but just used a towel to wipe her slightly wet hair strand by strand until her hair was completely wiped through.

"Brother...can you hug me..."

Yang Zhi's voice became softer and softer, and her cheeks turned red before she finished speaking.

The lights in the living room had already been dimmed, and Yang Zhi's courage grew.

This then led to a difficult problem, which Xu Mingyuan was asked to solve.
