Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace

Chapter 1010 - 236

"... Gu Yan!!!"

Nie Xiaoxing glared angrily at Gu Yan.

Deeply feeling that if she stayed with him any longer, she’d really be driven crazy by him!

Is he an idiot?!

Gu Yan quickly covered his lips, staring at Nie Xiaoxing earnestly.

Nie Xiaoxing took a deep breath, her voice on the brink of breaking, "What exactly are you looking at? You idiot!"

"... Why are you swearing?"

"Fool!"

"..."

"Bastard!"

"..."

"Dimwit!"

"..."

"..." Nie Xiaoxing bit her lower lip, staring at Gu Yan who didn’t talk back as she cursed him.

Gu Yan sighed, looking at Nie Xiaoxing with a bit of indulgence, "Have you had enough? If not, keep going."

"..."

"Out of words?"

"..."

"I can teach you!"

"..."

"Actually, it doesn’t have to be just two words. You can use sentences, for example: Gu Yan, if you don’t let go of me, do you believe I’ll beat you up until you turn into poop!"

"..." Nie Xiaoxing’s face twitched, her spirited big eyes flickering with an inexplicable shine.

"Or: Gu Yan, is there a pig’s brain hanging around your neck, can’t understand human speech?"

"... You’re really sick!"

Nie Xiaoxing raised her eyebrows and glared at him, but her anger noticeably diminished.

Gu Yan puckered his lips, "I really didn’t do it on purpose, I swear."

Nie Xiaoxing lowered her eyelids and remained silent.

Gu Yan lowered his head, looking at her, "Let me check if the bump is serious. My brain isn’t working that well, better not to bump it into stupidity."

"... Can’t you speak like a normal person?"

Nie Xiaoxing raised her eyelids, glaring at him with anger.

"Heh." Gu Yan grinned cheekily. In Nie Xiaoxing’s starry eyes, it seemed like actual stars were twinkling.

Nie Xiaoxing’s face couldn’t help but warm up, and she lowered her head.

After a few seconds, she quietly said, "What if I really become stupid from the bump?"

"Really bump into stupidity? Let me see quickly."

As Gu Yan spoke, he raised his hand to brush Nie Xiaoxing’s hair aside.

"I’m not joking!"

Nie Xiaoxing said again, her head still lowered.

Gu Yan pressed his thin lips together, his fingers parting the hair on Nie Xiaoxing’s head.

Because the bump on the back of Nie Xiaoxing’s head was large, Gu Yan gently parted the hair and saw it.

Frowning tightly, Gu Yan inexplicably took a deep breath, staring at the bump on Nie Xiaoxing’s head for a while, before cupping her head, lifting it up to reveal Nie Xiaoxing’s face, and suddenly said very seriously, "I’m sorry!"

Nie Xiaoxing looked at him, her lips moved a few times, then asked, "Gu Yan, if I were to become stupid from the bump, would you take care of me?"

"... I think we should go to the hospital and get it checked?"

Gu Yan backed away from her, reaching out to grab Nie Xiaoxing’s hand.

Nie Xiaoxing avoided it, tucking her head behind her.

Gu Yan squeezed his palm, staring at her.

Nie Xiaoxing had her head lowered, so Gu Yan couldn’t see her face, nor guess her current mood.

"... I’m fine, no need to go to the hospital."

Nie Xiaoxing’s voice was very low, sounding normal.

After speaking, she intended to slip past Gu Yan.

Gu Yan suddenly took a deep breath, reaching out to grab one of Nie Xiaoxing’s hands.

Nie Xiaoxing stopped in her tracks, not looking up at him.

"Nie Xiaoxing, do you like me?" Gu Yan looked at Nie Xiaoxing, asking very seriously.

After Gu Yan asked, the entire bathroom suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Gu Yan held his breath lightly.

It felt like a little cat had sneaked into his heart, scratching his heart gently with its claws.

Gu Yan probably didn’t even realize... he was actually hoping for a positive answer from Nie Xiaoxing.

Time seemed to stand still.

When Nie Xiaoxing looked up at Gu Yan, even Gu Yan couldn’t tell if it had been a few minutes or just a few seconds, only feeling his heart racing, as if it was going to leap out of his chest.

"When I was seven, Aunt Gu brought you to Tong County to see my mom, do you remember?"

"..." His expression was somewhat indescribable.

He thought she was about to answer his question...

Gu Yan felt a bit disappointed, reached for his heart, frowned, and shook off Nie Xiaoxing’s hand, "I don’t remember anything from when I was seven!"

"...You were already twelve at the time!"

Nie Xiaoxing looked at him, her voice a bit shaky.

Gu Yan glanced at her again, paused, "Why are you asking this?"

"You really don’t remember?" Nie Xiaoxing stared at him intently.

Gu Yan looked confused.

Nie Xiaoxing clenched her fist, and her face suddenly fell.

She turned around, walked to the bathroom door, opened it, and walked out without looking back.

Gu Yan twitched at the corner of his eye, chased after her, "What am I supposed to remember? You should at least make it clear."

...

Nie Xiaoxing walked into the mahjong room and immediately sat down next to Tang Yige.

Gu Yan followed her in, his baby face wrinkled with agitation, glaring at Nie Xiaoxing.

In front of so many people, Gu Yan, being overly concerned about face, naturally wouldn’t insist on questioning Nie Xiaoxing further.

Gu Yan exhaled and walked to Jin Jumo’s side, absent-mindedly asking, "Little Mo Mo, how’s it going? Winning or losing?"

"Well..."

Jin Jumo stood up, making room for Gu Yan.

"It’s okay, you keep playing!"

Gu Yan said.

"... Maybe I shouldn’t play anymore!"

Jin Jumo smiled sheepishly, licked her lower lip, "Um, brother..."

"Good little sister!"

Jin Jumo, "..."

Rong Mochen’s dark eyes half-narrowed, he casually glanced at Gu Yan and said, "Twenty."

Xiao Nanqing: "Fifteen!"

"... Thirty-five!" Rong Sinan coughed discreetly, covering his mouth.

"... What does it mean?" Gu Yan was dumbfounded.

Jin Jumo lowered her head, walked silently past Gu Yan, and walked towards Tang Yige’s group.

"You can either transfer the money or write a check." Xiao Nanqing teased Gu Yan with a smile, his phoenix eyes gleaming.

Gu Yan, "..."

"It’s not much, Little Jin just helped you lose one or two million at most, Mr. Gu is not tight on money, it’s not a big deal." Xiao Nanqing laughed so hard his shoulders shook.

"What?"

Gu Yan looked at Jin Jumo, "In less than twenty minutes, you lost a million?"

Jin Jumo looked at Gu Yan innocently, "Brother, you said you weren’t short on cash!"

"... Brother’s not short on cash, brother, brother’s just surprised! How did you manage to lose a million in twenty minutes? Quickly teach your brother!" Gu Yan looked at Jin Jumo, resigned.

Aside from Nie Xiaoxing and Gu Yan.

Everyone in the room was holding back laughter.

"... Brother, actually... I don’t know how to play mahjong!"

Jin Jumo bit her lower lip hard, looking at Gu Yan, afraid that he couldn’t hear her, she spoke slowly.

"... You, say it again?!!!"

Gu Yan rolled up his sleeves!

"Brother, don’t be angry, what I lost wasn’t for nothing, after all, I learned a bit."

"... What did you learn?" Gu Yan gritted his teeth.

Jin Jumo put on a serious face, as if she truly gained knowledge, "I can now recognize almost all the mahjong tiles."

"... Hahaha."

Mu Yan hugged Jin Jumo and laughed, "Sister Jin, you’re so smart. Recognizing all the mahjong tiles in just twenty minutes."

"Pfft..."

Tang Yige raised her beautiful eyes and laughed.

"..." Gu Yan glared fiercely at Jin Jumo, on the verge of being... laughed to anger by her!

"Hmph! You all just wait! Tonight, we’ll battle till dawn! I’m going to win back what Little Mo Mo and I lost!"

Gu Yan rolled up his sleeves, full of fighting spirit, and sat down.

Rong Mochen glanced at Jin Jumo with a smile, his dark eyes also showing a bit of resignation.

This little girl is becoming more... outgoing!

But... it’s quite good!

Who knows if Gu Yan was truly provoked.

In the next hour or so, Gu Yan actually managed to win back one or two million... Well, actually, it was because Rong Mochen and the other two intentionally went easy on him.

Basically.

The fun of playing cards among brothers is to have a good time, who wins or loses doesn’t really matter.

Around four in the morning, Gu Yan and Xiao Nanqing were getting ready to call it a night and head home.

At this moment, a sudden scream came from outside.

Tang Yige, who was resting in the inner room on the big bed with Jin Jumo and the others, immediately opened her eyes upon hearing the sound, sat up on the bed, and rushed out of the room without even putting on her shoes.

Meanwhile, Rong Sinan and the other three had already rushed out of the mahjong room upon hearing the noise.
