Lu Ming and Lu Ze were stunned. Why was their sister so happy?
And who was Yang Yang?
Lu Ze, in particular, was dying of curiosity. His sister didn't even want his cicada anymore. Who exactly was this Yang Yang?
"I'll go take a look," Lu Ze said, then ran after Lu Wanqing.
Lu Ming was also curious. Although he didn't say anything, he naturally followed them towards Lu Wanqing's room.
At Lu Wanqing's room, as soon as she reached the door, Lu Wanqing stopped. She carefully pushed the door open, as if afraid of disturbing the person inside.
Lu Ze became even more curious. Who could it be? Sleeping in his sister's room?
Lu Wanqing was about to open the door when she suddenly remembered something and quickly turned to Lu Ze, saying, "Second Brother, don't disturb Third Brother."
Third Brother?
As soon as Lu Wanqing spoke, Lu Ming and Lu Ze were dumbfounded. The two brothers were confused. Didn't they only have two boys in their family? Where did Qingqing get a third brother?
Did their parents secretly have another child behind their backs?
Lu Ze turned his suspicious gaze towards the direction of their parents outside.
Inside the room, after Lu Wanqing entered, she moved almost on tiptoe, clearly afraid of waking the person inside.
Lu Ming and Lu Ze also followed them in. The two brothers looked curiously at the person sleeping on their sister's bed.
Upon seeing him, they were somewhat shocked. A boy? This was a boy?
Why was a boy sleeping in their sister's bed?
Boys were not allowed to share a room with girls!
At this moment, Lu Ming felt inexplicably vigilant.
"Qingqing, you should wake him up for dinner," Lu Ze, however, did not forget the main purpose and reminded her.
Lu Ze found his sister's cautiousness strange. Wasn't it time for dinner? They were supposed to wake this child up to leave, so why were they being so careful?
Lu Wanqing: "..."
Fine.
Lu Wanqing also realized it. It was just that she had been taking care of children in the interstellar era for so long, and coupled with the fact that the person in the bed now was her third brother, a young version of her third brother, she couldn't help but feel a surge of affection, hence her excessive caution.
However, thinking this, Lu Wanqing had no intention of changing her behavior. She still carefully approached the head of her third brother's bed, then extended her small hand and gently nudged the boy on the bed.
"Third Brother," Lu Wanqing called out softly.
"Third Brother, dinner is ready. Wake up and eat," Lu Wanqing called again, her voice very gentle.
Little Lu Yang, who hadn't been sleeping deeply, vaguely woke up at the sound of the little girl's voice by his bedside.
Lu Ze felt a pang of jealousy. He looked at his sister, then at the boy on the bed, and couldn't help but ask, "Qingqing, who is he? Why is he sleeping in your bed?"
Actually, what Lu Ze wanted to ask most was, why was his sister so gentle towards this boy?
She was their sister, but he had never heard her speak to him so gently before.
Little Lu Yang also realized that there were other people in the room. It was his first time at the Lu family's house, and seeing two unfamiliar boys suddenly, he felt a little scared.
Lu Wanqing quickly extended her little hand, holding Little Lu Yang's hand for comfort. "Third Brother, don't be afraid. They are my eldest brother and second brother, and they will also be your eldest brother and second brother in the future."
"Eldest Brother and Second Brother are very nice people. They will treat you very, very well in the future!" Lu Wanqing said quickly.
Lu Ming and Lu Ze, who had inexplicably received a "good person" card: "..."
After introducing her eldest and second brothers to Little Lu Yang, Lu Wanqing turned around and did not intend to introduce Little Lu Yang to her eldest and second brothers.
Lu Ze was anxious and quickly asked, "Qingqing, who is he? You haven't introduced him to us yet?"
"What are you doing in your sister's room? Come out quickly, it's time for dinner." At the door of the room, Father Lu Yizhi appeared at some point, looking at them with a smile and saying.
"Yes, yes, we're coming right away!" Lu Wanqing replied happily.
"Third Brother, do you want to get dressed? I can help you," Lu Wanqing said, standing by the bed. Seeing that Little Lu Yang hadn't gotten up yet, she spoke instinctively.
However, as soon as she said it, Lu Wanqing realized that she was only three years old. Saying these words... seemed a little inappropriate?
Lu Ming and Lu Ze were also shocked. They looked at their sister with disbelieving eyes. Was their sister being too attentive to this boy?
If someone offers help without reason, they must have ulterior motives?
But what if the one offering help was their sister?
Most importantly, the one being offered help was a boy!
In an instant, both brothers became vigilant.
It wasn't just Lu Ming and Lu Ze; even Lu Yizhi at the door was shocked. Although he also hoped that the children would accept Yang Yang, wasn't Qingqing's attitude towards Yang Yang too enthusiastic now?
Why did he... have a feeling that Qingqing had ill intentions towards Yang Yang?
An illusion!
It must be an illusion!
In a short moment, everyone had thought a lot.
However, the biggest reaction came from the person on the bed. Hearing Little Lu Wanqing's words, Lu Yang's cheeks instantly turned red. He quickly shook his head and refused, "No... No need, I can do it myself. I... I can get dressed by myself!"
He said he could get dressed, but Little Lu Yang soon noticed that everyone was in the room, and he felt a little embarrassed.
Lu Yizhi saw that the child's face was almost red, and he was somewhat surprised. This child could also feel shy?
"Alright, all of you, go out first. Wash your hands, and then line up for dinner," Lu Yizhi said to his three children.
Lu Ming and Lu Ze curiously looked at Lu Yang, then left.
Lu Wanqing didn't move; she remained in the room.
Lu Yizhi raised his hand and rubbed his daughter's head, smiling. "Qingqing wants to stay and watch Yang Yang change clothes?"
At this, even Lu Wanqing's old face, oh no, her little face now, blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed. She quickly went out.
Lu Yizhi was even more taken aback. Qingqing knew how to be shy too?
With most people gone, Little Lu Yang finally felt less tense. He looked at Uncle Lu and quickly said, "Uncle Lu, I can dress myself."
As Little Lu Yang spoke, he quickly got up and quickly dressed himself.
He wanted to prove to himself that he wasn't a child anymore, that he could take care of himself and didn't need anyone to help him get dressed.
Lu Yizhi smiled and nodded, "Mm."
After Little Lu Yang was dressed, Lu Yizhi looked at him and said, "Yang Yang, from now on, don't call me Uncle Lu. Whether in front of outsiders or our own family, call me Dad. Call Aunt Jiang Yu 'Mom.' Ming is Eldest Brother, Xiao Ze is Second Brother, and Qingqing is the youngest sister. We are a family, a real family."
Little Lu Yang understood what Uncle Lu meant. The child who had been pretending to be strong finally couldn't hold back and tears fell.
Lu Yizhi paused, then squatted down and wiped the child's tears with his rough fingers.
"Uncle Lu, will my dad and mom never come back?" Little Lu Yang cried, his voice choked with sobs.
