Chapter 1159

Zhu Zhibin chuckled. "Eldest Sister, you probably don't realize that not many people know about your relationship with Second Sister. I went to the country and participated in the International Math Competition. A few teachers and students at my school know about me and my Second Sister. They keep their mouths shut because it’s a rule, but I still didn’t let Brother Niu and Brother Peng leave. Better safe than sorry. If anything happened to me, Mom and Dad would be heartbroken."

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Zhu Yanli felt her face lose all dignity after being lectured by Zhu Zhibin, but she quickly apologized.

Zhu Yanyi gave Zhu Zhibin a thumbs-up. "Doumiao is truly a ten-year-old boy now. He has grown up."

"Second Sister, please don't keep mentioning that I'm ten. It feels like I'm trying to act like the boss." Zhu Zhibin protested, but his protest was useless. After all, he was only ten years old.

Zhu Yanyi chuckled. "I'm praising you." She then sighed. "By the way, Dad's Azure Sovereign Vegetable Supermarket in the capital is about to open. You and Eldest Sister can go see it tomorrow. I can't go, so I'll just stay home and make food while waiting for you to return."

"Poor Second Sister. You're famous now, but you have no freedom." Zhu Zhibin remarked, though his tone sounded a bit like he was enjoying her misfortune.

Zhu Yanyi turned around and tapped Zhu Zhibin on the head. "Just keep teasing me. One day when you become famous, you'll be in the same situation."

"(⊙o⊙)…" Zhu Zhibin paused, then said to Yan Aohan, "Brother Yan, my Second Sister is so willful. How do you endure her usually?"

Yan Aohan was stunned, and so was Zhu Yanyi. Yan Aohan smiled lightly. "Your Second Sister is only a bit willful and shows off her strength in front of you. Actually, she's quite nice normally."

"So, I'm the one getting special treatment?" Zhu Zhibin cried out. "That's too much!"

Zhu Yanyi chuckled. "You can consider this as love for you."

"Can I refuse such love?"

"No."

…

Amidst the siblings' bickering, Yan Aohan saw the three siblings off at the small villa. He did not stay but left directly.

Zhu Yanyi and the others entered the small villa. Zhu Shunyao and Xie Xinlian had not returned yet, so the three siblings decided to cook dinner together while waiting for their parents.

That night, the Zhu family reunited, and everyone was particularly happy.

"We've been in the capital for nearly a month, but today is the first time our family has truly reunited," Zhu Shunyao remarked with emotion.

"Dad, I'll come back on my days off," Zhu Yanli said with a smile. "The bus is convenient anyway."

"Me too," Zhu Zhibin said seriously. "We are all convenient. The only one who isn't convenient is Second Sister."

Zhu Yanyi sighed. "Even if I come back, I can't go out. I can probably only come back on special occasions. Other times, it's probably best if I don't come here."

Zhu Shunyao patted Zhu Yanyi's shoulder. "Dad knows your difficulties, but Dad is very proud of you. Seeing the honor you brought to our Huaxia on TV makes Dad even prouder. Dad feels like she can hold her head higher." As she spoke, Zhu Shunyao lifted her head toward the sky, showing how proud she was.

Xie Xinlian smiled and added from the side, "After seeing your news broadcast, your Dad wakes up smiling every day. But because of this, several people from the Zhu family in Zhu City have come here."
