Brother Is an Idiot

Lu Jingzhi slept soundly all the way home, but he suddenly woke up when they reached home.

Lu Ning was carrying him and did not notice; however, Lu Qing, who was standing behind him, was startled.

Lu Jingzhi suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Lu Qing.

Shen Yunci stood by the door, holding it open for him.

He was rooted to the ground for a long time.

“Stop looking at your brother. Get moving, I’m closing up.”

Lu Qing turned to look at his dear mother, who wished he could just get lost. “I’m staying home today.”

Shen Yunci: “…”

Before she could say anything, Lu Qing walked towards his room.

Lu Zhi walked over, closed the door, and whispered in Shen Yunci’s ear, “This is a good thing. Maybe our eldest son changed his opinion of Little Ning and wants to get to know her better.”

Shen Yunci glanced at him. “You naïve fool. Little Ning told your son off to the point he couldn’t even get a word in; if he wants to get to know her better, it won’t be today. He might be up to something, keep an eye on him; don’t let him bully our precious daughter.”

Lu Zhi nodded. “Don’t worry. He’s the only one in the family now who treats Little Ning poorly, even our Little Darling is on Sister’s side; if he wants to bully Little Ning, he definitely won’t escape our notice.”

Shen Yunci nodded.

“Let’s prepare dinner. Little Ning must be hungry.”

Lu Zhi nodded. He had just taken two steps into the kitchen when he stopped and turned to look at Shen Yunci. “Why don’t we get our eldest son to move out, lest he gives Little Ning a hard time? And I’ll even have one bowl fewer to wash.”

Shen Yunci looked at him and went silent for a few seconds.

Then, she nodded seriously. “That’s feasible.”

When Lu Ning carried Lu Jingzhi back to his room, she realized that he had woken up.

“Still want to sleep?”

Lu Ning asked gently when she saw his big eyes spinning around.

Lu Jingzhi shook his head and sat up. His voice was still hoarse from just waking up. “Sister, can I see that teacher now?”

Lu Ning thought for a moment. “I’ll introduce him to you after dinner, but you guys should communicate with each other through text. It’s best not to let him know who you are, do you understand?”

Lu Jingzhi nodded and smiled sweetly. “I got it, it’s to hide my identity.”

Lu Ning could not help but smile and pat his head when she saw him acting so mature.

This was the first time she realized that having such a docile child by her side could be so therapeutic.

When she was at the Lù’s house, the children from her uncles’ house were either breaking her things or pranking her on purpose. Although they became more well-behaved after she got back at them once, they would still deliberately wreak havoc. They would give her a headache every time; she had never felt this little bit cleansed and happy as she did now.

Lu Ning was startled when the word ‘happiness’ came to her mind.

Previously, people’s impressions of her tended to revolve around that concept. However, she alone knew the sort of family environment she was in made her feel that this concept was far out of reach for her.

Lu Ning’s hand gently stroked Lu Jingzhi’s hair, and her gaze became more and more gentle.

After dinner, Lu Ning watched television with her parents for a while before returning to her room to wash up.

Lu Jingzhi was also preparing to return to his room to see how good the teacher his sister had introduced was.

Just as they reached the door, Lu Qing stopped them.

Lu Qing squatted down and looked Lu Jingzhi in the eye.

“Little Darling, tell your brother—what did she say to Sister An’an at the cafeteria today?”

Lu Jingzhi looked at Brother in front of him, and suddenly felt he was a stranger. This brother was no longer the brother he used to be.

He seemed to be wearing glasses that were fogged over while he watched the people around him, but was unwilling to take them off.

“Brother is an idiot.”
