Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 507: Sardonic
The already round eyes widened even more.
The little girl slightly opened her mouth, revealing her small white teeth smeared with mango; most of her newly grown teeth had come in.
"You, you really are..."
Before she could finish, she caught sight of a hand sneakily reaching for the mochi. Tuanzi quickly pressed down on that hand.
"Second brother, you’re sneaking food again!"
Caught in the act, the former prince showed no shame, boldly pretending to look pitiful.
"But I’ve never tried it before; I’m curious now and want to taste it."
Tuanzi immediately softened, quickly pushing the mochi toward him, and then, after thinking for a moment, pushed all the other sweets towards him, letting him taste them.
Only when Ji Zhangzhuo was devouring the treats right in front of her, with a fox-like smile on his face, did Tuanzi remember that she usually shared with her brothers, and didn’t today because the second brother didn’t actually like sweets!
There’s only one truth: he was teasing her again!
Her fluffy hair stood on end due to the leaking Inner Strength. With her hair puffed up, Tuanzi angrily pounced, and Ji Zhangzhuo turned and ran.
The two played a chase scene in the large living room. Using Inner Strength, they moved so quickly they were just shadows.
Gu Li had already taken his seat, his gaze involuntarily fixated on his sister, his head constantly turning around. Though the participants were fine, he himself got dizzy first.
A light laugh was heard, and the irritable youth sharply turned his head, only to see Wen Li leisurely sending a message, as if the laughter was an illusion.
Suspiciously, he scrutinized the person before slowly turning back.
Elsewhere, the baby-faced youth underestimated Tuanzi’s Qinggong and, with a lapse in concentration, his braid was grabbed.
Tuanzi seized the moment to jump onto his back, threatening while holding his braid.
"Swear, promise you won’t tease Miaomiao again!"
Ji Zhangzhuo vaguely replied, "Today I won’t sneak your sweets."
The little girl warily asked, "Then what about tomorrow? And the day after?"
Ji Zhangzhuo continued to answer vaguely, "I won’t sneak sweets anymore."
Tuanzi grunted before finally releasing his braid.
After thinking, she threatened playfully, "If you sneak again, Miaomiao will secretly cut your braid!"
The baby-faced youth nodded obediently, pulled her with his hand, held her in his arms teasingly for a bit, and then placed her back on the ground.
Returning victoriously, Tuanzi lifted her chin and chest proudly.
Upon seeing Wen Li, she remembered that he was also her cousin.
"Your surname is Wen, then you’re Auntie’s son."
She only knew Auntie was called Jin Yue.
The sons of uncle and second uncle are all surnamed Jin, while second aunt’s son has the surname Gu. By elimination, this person before her must be Auntie’s child.
The gentle young man clapped his hands, and in a soft voice coaxed the child.
"You’re too clever. You guessed it right with one shot."
Tuanzi laughed proudly twice, and enthusiastically invited Wen Li to have some sweets.
Arranging everything properly, she burrowed into her second brother’s arms, wanting to share some seaweed snacks again.
"Super delicious, aren’t you going to try, second brother?"
Gu Che, maintaining his figure, said, "...No, you go ahead."
Disappointed, Tuanzi had to taste it by herself.
Seeing her face covered in meat floss as she ate, Gu Che suddenly said, "You were fooled by your second brother."
Ji Zhangzhuo, sitting indifferently, "..."
Holding the small paper box, Tuanzi was confused, "No, he swore he wouldn’t sneak Miaomiao’s sweets anymore!"
The baby-faced youth had quietly stood up, ready to slip away.
At this moment, Wen Li called out to him, his fair face showing slight distress.
"What kind of filling is this mochi? I don’t like red bean; is it red bean?"
Ji Zhangzhuo answered carelessly, but this interruption made him miss the best chance to escape.
Thanks to the second brother’s reminder, Tuanzi remembered her original demand was ’not to tease me anymore’, not ’second brother shouldn’t sneak sweets’.
Just moments ago she had swelled with pride over her cleverness, but now only felt her face burning, and angrily pounced at Ji Zhangzhuo.
Before pouncing, she even called for help, "Third brother, help me!"
No one saw where her third brother was, but just felt the temperature in the room drop abruptly.
"Whoa, third brother, do you have to be so harsh? I’m your fellow disciple too!"
Ji Zhangzhuo gathered Inner Strength in his legs, trying to break the ice, but Tuanzi was faster than he imagined.
"No, no, no... Ow, I was wrong! I really know I was wrong!"
The others calmly sat on the sofa, sipping tea and having sweets, enjoying the show.
Gu Che took a few sips of lemon tea, confirmed his sister was still dealing with the brother, and glanced at Wen Li indifferently.
"No visitations without purpose, say what you’re here for."
He didn’t believe this cousin was merely coincidentally in Director Ming’s car, nor did he believe his cousin came today without any purpose.
If the aim was to bond with his sister, though jealous, he wouldn’t stop it; this was his sister’s and cousin’s right. Conversely, if he intended to use his sister, he wouldn’t hold back.
The irritable youth only understood the surface meaning of the words.
"Of course, he’s after Miaomiao."
Gu Li said gloomily, "He’s inquired a lot about Miaomiao and even knows she’s about to join ’Great Adventure Team’."
His sister had once invited him, but the filming schedule clashed with his class, leaving him frustrated!
Director Ming’s program was originally called ’Little Adventure Team’, though there were big guests, the highlights were the cute kids.
However, the little guests, including Tuanzi, believed they had much courage and mature wisdom, not small but big, so the program’s name was changed.
Gu Li was just grumbling; Gu Che became more and more suspicious. Upon closer inspection of Wen Li’s fair face, he felt more and more that he was deep and cunning.
Wen Li, with unchanged smile, said, "Of course, I’m here for Miaomiao; she’s my sister."
His father also had siblings, and he had other cousins too. Maybe because they were close in age, and he became famous young, with considerable assets now, during interactions, the other party often aimed to please and exploit, lacking much familial affection.
Wen Li stated frankly, "After learning Miaomiao was joining the program, I volunteered to participate in planning for ’Great Adventure Team’, so now I’m considered an honorary director."
Implying he would be with the crew throughout.
Gu Che’s face turned dark.
Gu Li, curious, blurted, "Are you so free?"
The tone was a bit sharp, but those familiar with him knew the words bore no malice.
"I’ve finished writing what I need," Wen Li, smiling warmly, looked at Gu Che, "Indeed, I’m quite free."
"Writing?"
Gu Che frowned, spotting his sister finishing with Ji Zhangzhuo, and walking toward them. He promptly eased his brows and made himself look cool and unconcerned.
"You’re a writer?"
Wen Li praised him in the same manner he had praised Tuanzi earlier, "You’re clever."
Contrary to his sister’s reaction, Gu Che only found this cousin overly sarcastic!
