Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 624: Jin Lingxiao

The chubby face displayed an incredibly complex emotion.

Tuanzi sighed like an old soul, seriously patted Jin Shilin’s arm, "Cousin, you’ve been through a lot." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

With a brother like this, it must feel exhausting.

Just like how it’s exhausting for Qize to have a brother like Gu Yunmu.

The subject of the complaints quickly retreated inside.

This time, he didn’t stop his brother and sister from coming in.

Jin Shilin hadn’t even changed his shoes before he ’smacked’ the lights on.

The man painfully covered his face again.

Tuanzi tiptoed curiously.

"Cousin, can’t you stand the light?"

"Ha, he only turns the bedroom lights on when playing computer games; otherwise, the darker, the better," Jin Shilin answered for his brother.

"Why? Isn’t it bad for your eyes in such dark conditions?"

Noticing the unfamiliar cousin wasn’t wearing glasses, she exclaimed in surprise, "How come your eyes aren’t damaged?"

"Long since nearsighted, but too lazy to wear them," Jin Shilin again answered for his brother, "He just feels darkness symbolizes tranquility. Plus, without lights at home, neighbors won’t come knocking asking for help."

The main point isn’t rejecting others’ help but trying to reduce social interaction this way.

Tuanzi couldn’t help but critique, "But cousin doesn’t have many neighbors, does he? Just to avoid interacting with these few neighbors, he always keeps the curtains drawn?"

This approach is a bit extreme.

The man slightly lowered his hand, glanced at Tuanzi, then at Jin Shilin, and when he spoke, his voice was a tad hoarse, "What brings you here again?"

Jin Shilin fought the urge to roll his eyes, "I only come two or three times a month."

The man turned his head, muttering softly, "I used to see you only two or three times a year."

Jin Shilin: "... Keep this up, and I’ll take you to the doctor."

The man quickly calculated in his mind.

Seeing a doctor means going downstairs, possibly encountering neighbors or other residents from the same community. Afterward, taking his brother’s car ensures no interaction with others. But at the hospital, there are lots of people—the doctors, nurses, patients, and their families. If there’s some friction, the number only increases.

The most crucial part is his brother will definitely let him face the doctor alone, communicating directly. No matter how indifferent, a doctor needs to ask many questions to learn basic information about a patient’s health.

What’s more frustrating is if the doctor prescribes an imaging test, he definitely needs to wait in a long queue for that.

The imaging test is fine, but waiting in line means encountering lots and lots of people.

Jin Lingxiao began to feel dizzy.

And at this moment, Jin Shilin said casually, "Oh, I won’t drive you there; you can hail a cab or take the bus or subway yourself."

Jin Lingxiao was despairing, already starting to have difficulty breathing.

Tuanzi curiously inspected this cousin.

Facially, there was some resemblance to Jin Shilin. But since their personalities and experiences differed, despite the physical similarities, their aura was entirely different.

Perhaps due to staying indoors for so long, Jin Lingxiao’s handsome face seemed a bit bloated, and his physique wasn’t as fit as Jin Shilin’s.

Tuanzi stared at his stomach.

"There’s no belly."

Jin Lingxiao instinctively tightened his abs and puffed up his chest.

Having done so, Tuanzi grew more curious and dashed closer to take a better look.

Jin Lingxiao hastily covered his stomach.

"Don’t cover it; I heard if you often sit in a chair without exercising, your belly becomes unsightly."

Tuanzi struggled to remember and found that her brother and senior brothers had decent figures, at least no belly.

"Occasionally jog, there’s a treadmill at home."

Jin Lingxiao looked in another direction but indeed was communicating with Tuanzi.

Once Tuanzi entered his line of vision, he immediately turned his head.

Jin Shilin had already taken the chance to draw open the curtains and open the windows for ventilation.

Not only that, but he also adeptly went to the bathroom to get a mop ready to clean the floor.

"What about the robot vacuum bought last time?"

For tasks that could be delegated to machines, Jin Shilin preferred not to do them himself.

"Uh," Jin Lingxiao avoided eye contact, "Too noisy, I put it away."

Tuanzi doubted she misheard.

"Put it away? Cousin, your description sounds adorable!"

Seeing her approach, Jin Lingxiao once again looked in another direction.

With such obvious movements, it was hard for Tuanzi not to notice.

"Why don’t you look at me?"

Tuanzi jumped up, lightly landed without making a sound.

"Does Miaomiao look ugly?"

Jin Lingxiao continued avoiding.

As a curious cat, Tuanzi impolitely chased after him until she caught him, hanging directly on Jin Lingxiao’s back.

"Ahhh!"

The man, whose features were considered handsome, slightly opened his hands, fingers trembling with panic.

But perhaps to conserve energy, he didn’t yell loudly.

Jin Shilin pretended not to hear.

After cleaning, he prepared to go to the study.

"No way!"

Not minding the Tuanzi on his back, Jin Lingxiao rushed to the study door, blocking his brother.

Tuanzi took this chance to push open the study’s door.

The curtains in the study were also drawn; the light was dim, yet Tuanzi could still see the figures in this room.

The small ones were inside a glass-front cabinet, while the larger ones were directly displayed outside.

Besides the figures, there were numerous game cartridges, badges, stickers, and posters.

"Wow, it’s spectacular."

Tuanzi found this somewhat familiar.

Gu Yunmu’s team created a popular game and made merchandise for some popular characters—a lot of people bought them.

Gu Yunmu also personally likes watching anime and has acquired some of these items; he once gifted Tuanzi a life-size pillow of a hot character.

The pillow was longer than Tuanzi.

Jin Shilin peeked and quickly concluded, "There are more than ten now. If you keep buying like this, can you save enough to buy a house?"

A certain homebody wriggled painfully.

This homebody had long set his sights on a second-hand villa near a cemetery—the location was excellent, and the discounted price was an absolute steal compared to the property prices throughout Jiang City. He worked hard, but his savings were dwindling instead of increasing.

Just then, Tuanzi, hanging on his back, asked quietly, "Cousin, can I touch that standee? That sister looks so pretty!"

A certain homebody wriggled painfully again.

These figures, they were either his ’wife’ or his ’children.’

Can anyone touch someone’s ’wife’?

Seeing his pained look, Tuanzi knew it was unlikely, so she didn’t push further. She jumped down, turned on the light, and enthusiastically appreciated the collection.

When she admired a certain corner, she touched her face in confusion.

"Isn’t the kid on this tape Miaomiao? But it’s a cartoon version of Miaomiao."

She occasionally browsed online and knew some fans had drawn cartoon versions of her, the most iconic ones showing her in kungfu attire with different weapons. Some fans even printed these on tape.

How did this just-met cousin have her merchandise?
