The 104th chapter: Could it be that you want me to acknowledge you as a sworn sister?
"Let's go upstairs, Gao Xi."
At the sight of Li Xiaobai, Tao Huan's face turned red, and then she pulled up her still muttering classmate with some annoyance.
"Ah, brother just came back, why seeing you brother want to go upstairs."
The little face sized up the two of them, and finally, a girl named Gao Xi got up from her seat, smiled politely at Li Xiaobai, and said something softly before heading upstairs.
It's really soft, this way of speaking.
Like Xia Xiner and Guo Jing, their voices are also very clear and sweet, but this kind of sweet and greasy voice makes Li Xiaobai feel a bit uncomfortable. He always feels that it's fake.
"Hey, cousin," said Li Xiaobai, who was also hesitant to call her by name in front of her classmates, "is there still food left? I've been delayed for a bit and haven't had lunch yet."
"There is leftover food in the kitchen."
After saying a word, Tao Huan didn't even look at her brother and went upstairs with her classmate.
Deliberately emphasizing on the leftover rice, Little Niu was still angry. Li Xiaobai felt a bit distressed during dinner.
But it's also not all bad, being too angry means you care too much.
At least it shows that my cousin is also very reserved in this aspect.
Eating the leftover food hastily, Li Xiaobai put his hands in his pockets and thought of casually giving his parents a call.
Looking at Tao Huan's unwilling expression, I might as well ask myself instead.
This search yielded nothing, and Li Xiaobai's phone was nowhere to be found. Then, he rummaged through every pocket, but still couldn't find it.
It's gone...
In an instant, Li Xiaobai was actually somewhat happy.
There are only a few numbers in the phone, so there's nothing to worry about. This phone has been with me for a while now, and I think it's time to say goodbye.
The only thing that's a bit annoying is that the other person left without saying goodbye, although it's very likely that I simply forgot.
But even if I buy a new phone, it's probably not much use anyway.
Moreover, it may also lead to all sorts of trouble, such as Lin Nan shouting at himself to go into the office is more convenient.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiaobai decided not to buy a new mobile phone.
As for the mobile phone's part-time alarm clock function, it can be replaced by a full-time professional alarm clock.
Speaking of which, it seems like my phone's calling function is part-time.
"Brother, can you come up for a bit? Tao Huan is looking for you about something."
Downstairs, after dinner, Li Xiaobai was watching TV in the living room when a girl named Gao Xi came running down again.
Although her mouth was asking for permission, her small hand was about to grab Li Xiaobai's hem.
Even if it's a younger sister, I'd still blush without a gradual adaptation process, okay?
And Tao Yuanna, is she really so annoying that even calling herself has to go through her classmates?
Forget it, I'll just go and take a look.
It's been a long time since I entered Tao Huan's room.
Following Gao Xi into Tao Huan's room, she gave a slight glance and still had that unique cute feeling of a girl.
At this time, Tao Huan was sitting in front of the computer desk and heard a sound. She turned her head slightly, "Hey, where's your phone? I called you, why didn't anyone answer?"
"My phone is nowhere to be found."
Li Xiaobai said casually. I thought you were asking something, but it turned out to be this.
"Brother, you're so carefree," Gao Xi's sweet voice came out again, "Growing up like this, I've never even known the feeling of losing something."
What kind of praise is this, Li Xiaobai felt a bit depressed, but also didn't bother to respond.
"It's all right, if it's really nothing, I'll go back to my room."
Li Xiaobai said after waiting for a while as Tao Huan remained silent.
"Hey," Gao Xi suddenly jumped out, "we want to go shopping, brother will accompany us."
"I won't go then," Li Xiaobai replied very succinctly, "high school coursework is quite intense, and I still need to go back to my room to review later."
Now, Tao Yuan definitely doesn't want to follow herself. Moreover, with classmates together, there's nothing to worry about.
It's hard to get some free time of my own, so I might as well make the most of it.
But then, after Li Xiaobai finished speaking, Gao Xi's eyes kept looking at Li Xiaobai's hands, with rows of question marks in her eyes, looking very cute, but only seemingly so.
Judging someone like this, and we've just met for the first time.
The first time you meet someone, it's not "how are you", but rather "how do you do".
Hurry up and show me your shy side.
However, Gao Xi seemed a bit unembarrassed, and Li Xiaobai became somewhat unnatural, "Wh...what's wrong?"
"Brother, when studying, shouldn't there be textbooks or supplementary books? It seems like I haven't seen you bring back any textbooks."
After finishing speaking, she turned her head to glance at Tao Huan, with a look that seemed to ask if he had seen it.
Her face slightly red, Li Xiaobai didn't want to lose face in front of her younger sister's generation, especially her sister's classmates, so she said, "It's not necessary to specially bring textbooks, because there are many materials in my room that can be studied."
The sentence was finished, but Tao Huan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, looking very displeased.
It's terrible, she knew what her own room was like, and yet she lied about it in front of her sister. She was already feeling a bit embarrassed, but now that she's been caught red-handed, it's really awkward.
Fortunately, Tao Yuan did not expose him in public, and Li Xiaobai let out a sigh of relief.
"Brother, wait a moment..."
Gao Xi didn't mind and ran towards Tao Huan with a "da da da" sound.
Tao Huan told her to go directly to the small bookshelf in her bedroom.
Soon, all the tools for class were brought over by Gao Xi.
Spread out the book, first lying on the couch, Gao Xi turned back and beckoned to Li Xiaobai.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Tao Huan didn't object, Li Xiaobai came to the bedside and asked.
"Brother, you also lie down." As she said that, Gao Xi got up and pulled Li Xiaobai once.
This is considered a shared pillow and blanket, and it's still his cousin's bed, Li Xiaobai hesitated.
"Hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to see it."
He glanced at Tao Huan again, confirming that she didn't mind, before Li Xiaobai lay down on the couch.
But why mind her attitude, little girl is very natural in her own room.
"Brother, I don't know how to do this question, can you teach me?"
She pushed over a supplementary book, and the girl's eyes rose with a strong desire for knowledge.
With a swish, Li Xiaobai's face changed color slightly.
Apart from being mediocre in math, Li Xiaobai also showed his disinterest in physics knowledge during his junior high school days. This little girl actually pushed a extracurricular book with the words "Olympic Physics Competition" on it to him and asked him to explain it.
Holding it in hand with a pretentious air, although there are also some simple ideas on the surface, and there will definitely be detailed answers later, but Xiao Niangpi just stared at herself, feeling too embarrassed to take a sneak peek at the answers behind, and then reverse-engineer the steps.
No choice, I'm really not interested in physics, although it seems quite useful.
To say, I'm not completely without physical cells either, at least in physics experiments he's still quite skilled.
I remember in junior high school, when we were learning about circuits, the teacher had us practice connecting all the wires. At that time, I was also the leader of our group. The girls in our group were quite strong in theory, but when it came to making the light bulb shine, they were a bit at a loss. In the end, Li Xiaobai saved the day with his incredible strength and finally connected all the wires, making the light turn on.
However, when the physics teacher commented on it, he didn't praise him at all. The whole class even burst into laughter, which really made Li Xiaobai feel embarrassed. Isn't it just connecting the series to parallel? In the end, the result was that all the lights were on, what's the difference?
"Brother, did you understand? Can you explain it to me?"
Seeing Li Xiaobai stunned, Gao Xi lightly pushed him and said.
Of course, everyone understands, but it's limited to Chinese characters and numbers, as well as those symbols.
But even after understanding the thought process of the question, I still have no idea how to solve it.
"Actually, you don't have to think about these questions all the time," Li Xiaobai said, avoiding the other person's gaze. "During the middle school entrance exam, what is being tested is still those most basic knowledge, these questions are a bit too advanced, even the last question won't be this difficult."
"Alright then, let's switch to something a bit easier."
Gao Xi got up again to look for Tao Huan's other textbooks.
When he brought a math auxiliary book, Li Xiaobai was a bit stunned again. Although the math in junior high school is not difficult, after all, it's already in high school, and those knowledge still need to be recalled. Looking at Gao Xi's meaning, there is no possibility of giving up easily.
"What do you want anyway?" Li Xiaobai shook his head in frustration.
"I've also been inspired to study by my brother," the gentle and soft voice of the signboard said, "If we can't go out, then we can only study at home, right?"
This little girl is so venomous.
Li Xiaobai had figured it out - if he didn't accompany them when they went out, the ways in which she would cause trouble for others would be endless.
"Gao Xi, do you have an older brother?" Li Xiaobai asked casually.
"No way," Gao Xi said with a smile, "Are you thinking of recognizing me as your adopted sister?"
Stop it, having a cousin is enough, if there's another sworn sister I'll collapse.
Luckily you don't have an older brother, otherwise he might really complain to your parents about why the second fruit of their love isn't a little brother but a little sister.
"Brother, are you going to come out or not?" Without waiting for Li Xiaobai's response, Gao Xi's small face showed a hint of impatience that quickly disappeared. "This problem has been troubling me for a long time."
Surrender, unconditional surrender.
Brother in front of sister, must have a strong momentum and profound unmeasurable dignity, if continue like this, then everything will be gone.
If I'm not admired by my sister, it's possible that she deeply despises me.
