The house had plenty of rooms, enough to accommodate everyone even if it was a bit of a squeeze.

By eleven o'clock, the children called to say they were going to an internet cafe to play games. Among them, only Er Bao, San Bao, and Tong Tong were girls.

Er Bao was easy-going and could play with the boys, and San Bao also knew how to play games.

Lin Feng asked, "What about Tong Tong? Is she going with you?"

Er Bao replied, "Tong Tong said she wanted to go. She just called her aunt and said it was all fine."

Lin Feng hummed in acknowledgment. "Okay, go and have fun, but come back early. If you want Dad to pick you up, just give me a call."

"Dad, Uncle Lin Jie is here too. He's coming with us."

With that, Lin Feng felt even more at ease. "Alright, then your mom and I are going to rest."

Around five in the morning, Lin Feng heard some noise outside and faintly made out Er Bao's voice. He got up to look, and sure enough, they were back.

"Did you all eat?"

"We ate breakfast and some baozi outside..."

Lin Jie, who had yet to go upstairs, said, "Bro, I'm heading out."

Lin Feng nodded. "Thanks for your help."

Lin Jie rolled his eyes at him. "Come on, we're brothers. There's no need for that."

Because Er Bao had a nice personality and was easy to talk to, Tong Tong chose to share a room with her. As for San Bao, she exuded a cool aura. Although she was also easy to talk to, she had a presence that made people hesitant to be too casual around her. In front of San Bao, Tong Tong could barely speak, feeling quite inferior.

From the moment she stepped into the villa, everything seemed like a palace to Tong Tong. There was a sense of home here, as well as an understated luxury that was incomparable to the rental apartment she lived in.

Er Bao opened the closet and found a set of pajamas. "Here, these are new and have already been washed."

Tong Tong took them. "Thank you."

"Don't be so polite," Er Bao said with a laugh. "Go take a shower."

A minute later, Tong Tong's voice came from the bathroom.

"Sister Er Bao..."

"What's wrong?"

Tong Tong asked, somewhat embarrassed, "How do I use this? I don't know how..."

Er Bao came over and saw that she didn't know how to use the smart toilet. She patiently taught her how. "Got it now?" she asked.

Tong Tong looked amazed. "Got it."

"Ask me if there's anything else you don't understand."

"Okay."

After Tong Tong was done, it was Er Bao's turn to shower, and only then did Tong Tong dare to observe the room. The decor was so beautiful; everything was just to her liking...

How wonderful it would be if all this belonged to me.

Tong Tong couldn't help but fantasize, but her expression dimmed when she thought of her own family's situation.

"You go to sleep first," Er Bao said, toweling her hair. "I'm going to make a video call."

The video call was to Da Bao. "Bro, are you busy?"

"Speak."

"Do you have time for a live stream today?"

"Not today, but I will tomorrow."

"Okay then, I'll contact you then."

As a gifted student about to enter her senior year of high school, Er Bao knew she had to give it her all.

With four treasures in the family, all going to good universities, I can't be the one to drag everyone down. Saying I don't care is just lying to myself.

Lying down, she noticed Tong Tong hadn't fallen asleep yet, looking too excited to do so.

"You're not tired?"

"Not really."

In such a dreamy room, she was too excited to feel sleepy.

Er Bao yawned. "I'm going to sleep. You should sleep early too. Good night!"

"Good night!"

Soon, Er Bao's even breathing filled the room.

Around noon, the children gradually woke up. Lin Feng waited for them to eat.

"Where's Xiao Bao? Where's Mom?"

"They went out to play. Come on and eat."

Noticing Tong Tong was missing, Lin Feng's gaze shifted to Er Bao, who explained that she hadn't gotten up yet. Lin Feng set aside some food for Tong Tong.

After the others had eaten, Tong Tong appeared, looking unsure of herself.

Lin Feng called to her kindly, "Come and eat!"

After taking a few bites, Tong Tong exclaimed, "Wow, this is so delicious!"

Er Bao proudly replied, "My dad's cooking is top-notch."

Lin Feng got up. "I'm going out. I'll call if I'm not coming back for dinner."

He had simmered some food for Lin Dahu and was now on his way to deliver it.

He drove to the hospital.

Lin Dahu was in very bad shape. The chemotherapy over the past few days had left him exceptionally pale.

"Uncle, I've simmered some soup for you." Lin Feng added a few special ingredients to it. The cancer is probably incurable; this can only alleviate the symptoms.

Lin Dahu mustered a smile. "Alright. Thank you for the trouble."

"Delicious!"

Lin Dahu perked up instantly. His wife, who was at his side, urged him to eat slowly.

"What else would you like to eat, Uncle? I'll make it for you," Lin Feng offered.

Although Lin Dahu politely said there was no need, he continued to eat with gusto.

This is really all I can do for Uncle...

Lin Dahu nodded with a smile. "Anyway... thank you for all this trouble."

After Lin Dahu finished the meal, Lin Feng went to the supermarket to buy groceries, planning what to make for the evening.

Zhang Yuxi called him. "Honey, where are you?"

"I'm at the supermarket buying groceries. I'm going to stew something for Uncle tonight."

"Oh..."

This was indeed all Lin Feng could do for Lin Dahu. He had called at noon to check on the situation and was told that Lin Dahu hadn't eaten a single bite of the food Wang Lu made; he had thrown it all up.
