Bai Qingnian didn't expect that they would come at such a coincidence.
Although it is not a big deal, it is a private matter between the two children.
Bai Qingnian went to open the door, and sure enough, it was Zhong Anjia and Gong Wangheng who came.
He wanted to tell them about this first, although it was a bit embarrassing to ask them to go back first, but he did not expect the sudden arrival of guests.
It’s a pity that Gong Wangheng didn’t give him a chance to explain first.
After saying hello, uncle, Gong Wangheng walked in with the macarons he had just bought.
Then I saw my younger brother rolling around on the carpet with another little boy, with very happy looks on their faces.
This is something Xiao Yuanyuan and Xiao Gu Chen like to do very much. They are like this in the Gu family. They feel uncomfortable if they don’t hang out together when they meet.
They didn't see Gong Wangheng come in, they were rolling around happily.
Ruan Xuan was sitting on the sofa. Seeing this, she said helplessly, "Chenchen, you can't play with your brother like this. Get up from the ground quickly."
Chenchen.
Gong Wangheng heard the name clearly. It turned out that this was the "Brother Chenchen" that his younger brother often called him.
Xiao Yuanyuan and brother Chenchen stood up from the ground and saw Gong Wangheng.
This was not the first time the two children met. The last time Gong Wangheng came to deliver a book to Xiao Yuanyuan, he had met little Gu Chen.
Smart children all have good memories. Gong Wangheng remembered that Xiao Yuanyuan also gave him a little penguin, which he held in his arms.
As expected, he is the brother Chenchen that Xiao Yuanyuan has been talking about.
Zhong Anjia took a few steps closer before she saw that there were guests inside. She wanted to take Gong Wangheng away first, so she said, "So you have guests. Let's come back later."
Ruan Xuan said, "No need, no need. You guys must be busy. We are leaving too."
After all, little Gu Chen still had to go to piano lessons. She came here suddenly and was embarrassed to disturb Bai Qingnian, so she said, "Chenchen, we have to leave. Say goodbye to your uncle and brother."
Little Gu Chen was a little reluctant. He had just seen his younger brother and hadn't said a few words to him before he was about to leave.
But he has a gentle personality and always listens to his parents. When Ruan Xuan said this, he did not object and replied, "Okay."
It is a small wish to express one's unhappiness clearly.
He was having a great time with brother Chenchen, and they just said they could play together for a while, so why did he leave so suddenly
He also saw Brother Hengheng. To be honest, he was no longer so angry with Brother Hengheng.
He is not an angry little parrot and does not like to carry bad mood overnight. After a good sleep, most of the bad mood has dissipated.
If Gong Wangheng came to apologize with dessert, he would definitely accept it.
But when brother Chenchen suddenly wanted to leave, his attention quickly shifted to this matter, and he clung to little Gu Chen like an octopus: "No, no! Brother Chenchen, you can't leave!"
Ruan Xuan couldn't tell Xiao Yuanyuan that she couldn't do this, so she could only say to Xiao Gu Chen, "Okay, Chenchen, we have to leave. Uncle has guests."
Zhong Anjia thought that they could not be considered guests, and even if they were guests, they were not important guests.
He hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay. We live across the street. Let's go back first. It will be convenient to come back later."
"We are also preparing to leave. We have other things to do." Ruan Xuan said again, "Chenchen, we are leaving."
Little Yuanyuan refused: "No! No! Brother Chenchen, please stay!"
Little Gu Chen is in a dilemma. On the one hand, he has to listen to his mother, and on the other hand, there is his younger brother who is really pestering him.
Gong Wangheng knew his brother's clingy personality, but this was the first time he saw him clinging to someone like this.
He did not forget that Xiao Yuanyuan said that this was his favorite brother after his parents.
He realized he had come at the wrong time.
His eyes fell on the coffee table and he saw the opened macarons on it, which were exactly the same as the gift he wanted to give to his brother as an apology.
Then he also realized that he could be replaced at will.
In fact, this is normal because anyone can be replaced.
Although everyone is unique, the unimportant ones, no matter how unique they are, are still unimportant.
Xiao Yuanyuan doesn't need his own brother, because he still has "Brother Chenchen", who also gives him macarons. And he likes this brother more, too. They stick together, and you can tell from their facial expressions that they have a good relationship.
Gong Wangheng analyzed the situation rationally and felt that he should be the one to leave.
But he didn't leave immediately.
Because to him, his younger brother is a special person.
He knew very early on that his brother was not a human, but a bird.
Although he had never seen what he looked like as a little bird, he had seen from afar his brother flying around the room with his wings spread.
Ordinary people would at least be surprised when seeing this scene, and those with weaker tolerance would probably be frightened.
But Gong Wangheng was just interested.
Such an unrealistic thing actually happened in reality.
However, his interest did not last long. He was willing to interact with his younger brother, and he accepted his younger brother from the bottom of his heart.
He felt that Xiao Yuanyuan had the power to improve people's mood, like a little sun, which could often boost his mood.
He had unintentionally attacked his brother's "faith" yesterday, and he sincerely wanted to apologize.
But from the time he came in until now, his younger brother didn't seem to look at him much, and just stayed around his brother Chenchen.
The smart child realized that his younger brother might really not want to forgive him - this is normal, after all, not all mistakes can be forgiven, not to mention that he is someone who can be replaced at will.
Should I be sad
When ordinary people realize this step, will they feel uncomfortable
Gong Wangheng was unsure. He seldom had such emotions. At this moment, he just felt a little blocked in his heart - he thought his younger brother was different from others, but to his younger brother, he seemed to be just an ordinary brother.
Smart children are also prone to unconsciously getting stuck in a rut. He doesn't realize that he is thinking too thoroughly and deeply, and his stupid little brother has no chance of having such thoughts.
He walked a few steps towards Xiao Yuanyuan and said to Ruan Xuan, "Auntie, I just want to talk to my brother. You don't have to leave. I'll leave after I'm done."
This situation confused Bai Qingnian for a few seconds. The two children were just arguing over a doll, but he was at a loss for a few seconds: "Sister-in-law, please sit down. It's okay. Just let the children talk by themselves."
"… Yeah, okay." Ruan Xuan sat down. Now she looked at Zhong Anjia's face carefully and asked in surprise, "Mr. Zhong, is that you?"
Zhong Anjia also looked at her for a while and recognized her: "Ms. Ruan, it turned out to be you."
"Yes, you still remember me."
"Of course I remember. You used to be my regular customer. It's been a long time."
"What else can I say? The studio closed down just like that. Look, the necklace I'm wearing now is the one you designed several years ago."
Zhong Anjia is a jewelry designer and previously had her own studio.
Later, because it was difficult to coordinate time to take care of Gong Wangheng's cognitive therapy, I just closed it.
Knowing them made Bai Qingnian feel less stressed.
While the adults were chatting, Bai Qingnian would check on the children from time to time... Although there was an additional Gu Chen, the adults still hoped that they could reconcile smoothly.
Little Yuanyuan kept pestering Brother Chenchen, hanging on him, and successfully made little Gu Chen sit on the ground.
Gong Wangheng walked over, ignored Gu Chen, and only asked Xiao Yuanyuan: "Are you still angry with me?"
Xiao Yuanyuan wouldn't be angry if she couldn't remember. If Brother Chenchen hadn't come and Brother Hengheng had come to apologize, they would definitely have reconciled.
But Brother Chenchen came, and the model brother who treated the little penguins well was right next to him - so when he saw Brother Hengheng again, he thought of the two dirty little penguins. Yesterday, Brother Hengheng looked down on his little penguins, saying that they were just a combination of cloth and stuffing.
Xiao Yuanyuan didn't say anything. He stayed close to Xiao Gu Chen and just blinked at Gong Wangheng, waiting for Gong Wangheng to apologize to his little penguin first.
No matter how smart Gong Wangheng is, he has never developed the ability to understand the meaning of something just by looking at its eyes.
In his opinion, Xiao Yuanyuan's silence seemed to mean that she didn't want to pay attention to him.
He asked, "You don't want to pay attention to me anymore?"
That's not the case.
If brother Hengheng apologizes to the little penguin, he will make peace with his brother.
He likes brother Chenchen and brother Hengheng. It would be best if the brothers could be good friends and play with him.
Unfortunately, the little baby couldn't speak clearly, and it was even harder for him to express himself. In the end, he wanted his brothers to be friends, so he started with, "... This is from Yuanyuan, Brother Chenchen."
It somehow became an introduction.
Only then did Gong Wangheng look into little Gu Chen's eyes.
Her pale blue eyes, as usual, showed no emotion.
He only looked at little Gu Chen, this was Brother Chenchen.
Is there anything special about him? He looks very ordinary and doesn't seem very smart.
Gong Wangheng asked directly: "You like him more, right?"
But this question made little Gu Chen feel hostile.
Even though Gong Wangheng had no such intention at all, his oppressive eyes and cold tone naturally showed hostility.
Little Gu Chen looked at Gong Wangheng unwillingly, not avoiding his gaze.
I was wondering who this person was. He didn't look like a good kid. He was cold and fierce.
He has a gentle personality, but he will definitely protect his younger brother - after all, he has learned children's Taekwondo for two years, so he can also be very fierce.
Gong Wangheng noticed the other person's eyes.
Such a cautious and vigilant look made him uncomfortable. He had no feelings towards Gu Chen until just now, but now he really didn't like the look in his eyes.
The two children looked at each other and the atmosphere was not good.
But Xiao Yuanyuan didn't notice this. Of course he liked Brother Chenchen more. They were of the same kind, and this kind of closeness was something he and Brother Hengheng could not cultivate for the time being.
Answer honestly: "... Yes, I like Brother Chenchen the most."
Gong Wangheng frowned.
There was a feeling of frustration that was hard to describe.
This feeling is not very unfamiliar, because there are many people in the world who are better than him, and he can occasionally experience it in some aspects.
But now he lost to the other person in front of him - even though he knew before that this was Xiao Yuanyuan's favorite brother, he still felt very strange. He didn't like this feeling.
"Okay then." Gong Wangheng placed the macaron in his hand next to Xiao Yuanyuan. "This is my apology gift to the little penguin. I hope the little penguin won't be sad. I'm leaving now."
He accepted everything calmly and walked back to Zhong Anjia: "Dad, I've finished talking to my brother, let's go back."
Zhong Anjia looked at him, then at Xiao Yuanyuan. The atmosphere between the two children did not sound like they had reconciled.
But Gong Wangheng seemed to have made a decision, and there were outsiders present, so Zhong Anjia couldn't say anything and could only take him back.
On the way, I asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you make up with your brother?"
"My brother doesn't want to pay attention to me, and he probably doesn't want to reconcile with me, so forget it. I can't force him to reconcile with me."
"How could that be? My brother wouldn't do that for the sake of the two little penguins."
Gong Wangheng wanted to say that the essence was not about the two little penguins, but the key was that he was a replaceable existence, and his younger brother had other older brothers, so it didn’t matter if he didn’t reconcile with him.
But when the words came to my lips, they became a sentence: "Childhood friendships are difficult to maintain for a lifetime. They always end at some point. We just broke up earlier."
Zhong Anjia: “…”
Do you have to be so mature
He smiled helplessly and said, "No, it's just a small matter, don't think too much about it."
"From the small, we can see the big. The book says that we should see the essence through the phenomenon. Objective facts will not be changed by human will."
Zhong Anjia held his hand and walked home: "So you really don't want to be friends with your brother?"
"My brother doesn't want to talk to me anymore." Gong Wangheng said, "Actually, I feel a little sad, but I know I'm not normal, and it would be better for my brother to make friends with normal kids."
The author has something to say: Xiao Yuanyuan: I just suffered because I can’t speak
—
Don't worry, it will be fine.
In the last chapter, a friend asked how they could be a pair with such different values. Can I say that I like this kind of CP? Hahaha, I think they have completely different personalities and have known each other since childhood. There is warmth and friction. They slowly get to know each other and get along well. From friends to lovers, they trust each other and no one can get in the way. It's really super loving.
Gong Wangheng lacks emotions, but Little Baby can warm him up. No matter how naughty Little Baby is, Gong Wangheng will indulge him. This friendship alone makes me feel very loving.
Besides, when we grow up, friendship and love deteriorate, and the baby that we have spoiled can only be spoiled by ourselves and continue to spoil. Sniff, doesn’t it smell good? Besides, they are still little geniuses and little fools. Am I the only one who thinks this smells good? Woo woo woo woo
