Chapter 36: My Cousin is Not Lovable at All (Continued)

  His parents' living room is on the first floor. Before Tao Huan came, the entire second floor was Li Xiaobai's domain. It didn't matter that half of his territory had been unintentionally occupied, but since his cousin arrived, his entire vacation had never been complete again.

  Girls are really good at manipulating, simply by changing various expressions, they can easily influence their parents' emotions and win their favor and special treatment.

  In this regard, boys who always insist on being themselves and never choose to compromise are at a disadvantage.

  Lying on the couch, thinking that his mother had always been obedient to Tao Huan, and also commanded himself to be obedient to his cousin, Li Xiaobai was very disdainful.

  He was bullied by his female deskmate in junior high when he was 15, while Tao Huan at a young age already knew how to control the emperor and command the vassals. Nowadays kids are really not simple at all.

  That's not right, why was Lin Xin bullying him when he was also fifteen years old?

  It's settled then, fifteen is definitely the age when girls start to go bad or become rebellious. I'll tell her parents about it later and they must be on their guard, keeping a close eye on Tao Huan. If Tao Huan becomes like Lin Xin, Auntie will surely die from anger.

  Li Xiaobai did not leave his bedroom for the entire afternoon.

  Before, I was considered obedient and sensible in my parents' eyes. But since my cousin came, it seems like the object of obedience and sensibility has changed hands. People, what's most important is not to lose confidence. Without hearing my parents' praise with my own ears, naturally, Tao Huan doesn't seem excellent at all in his eyes.

  And he, parents occasionally in front of guests a sentence son is still well-behaved and sensible words Li Xiaobai can remember for a lifetime.

  An adult can't change his stripes, so in his parents' eyes, he's absolutely the obedient and sensible type.

  At a little past six o'clock, the door was knocked on. Before Li Xiaobai could react, the door creaked open and Tao Huan entered without so much as a greeting.

  "Hey, Auntie is calling you for dinner." The little girl said reluctantly as she approached the bed.

  Why must you say such a simple sentence in such a twisted way, are girls born to be abstract poets? Also, before you make that ugly face, can't you wait for my permission to come in?

  Indeed, no matter how beautiful a girl is, the more you get to know her, the less you feel anything. On the other hand, the more beautiful a girl is, the more infatuated you are with her, and as you get to know her better, her flaws become infinitely magnified.

  She nodded slightly in response and immediately turned around and went downstairs without lingering for a moment.

  Ma Li quickly got dressed and Li Xiaobai hurried downstairs.

  The dishes are not made by himself. If he makes everyone wait again, and he's not a big shot, then it's absolutely impossible to wait for him. Even if they do wait, what they'll be waiting for is leftover food?

  Hey, whose landlord is abusing his long-term worker?

  "Every time you eat, your sister has to call you down. Can't you come down a bit earlier?" Lin's mother, Wang Jing, complained as she saw her son coming down.

  "If I had come down earlier, I wouldn't be able to help but go to the kitchen to help you. But the kitchen already has you and Tao Huan, it's too crowded and would only get in the way. In that case, I can only practice my self-control in the bedroom." Li Xiaobai said, picking up his bowl and chopsticks.

  "Stop talking nonsense." Wang Jing laughed and scolded, "If you have the heart for it, from now on, when you're at home, dinner will be left to you."

  "It's fine to give it to me, but you can't bear to spend more on medical expenses." Li Xiaobai took a bite of the dish, "Moreover, mom's cooking is just delicious. If I made it myself, I'd get anorexia by accident and that would be troublesome."

  "This dish was stir-fried by Yanyan." Wang Jing praised, "I really envy your aunt, having such a clever and intelligent daughter like you."

  At this moment, Tao Yuan's small face turned red.

  Is it? It's really strange, I suddenly feel like it doesn't taste good anymore.

  "Uncle, Auntie, our teacher assigned us a composition about marine life. I want to go to the Ocean World in South City tomorrow." Tao Huan suddenly said at the end of dinner.

  "Going is okay, but isn't the city south district a bit too far from us?" Wang Jing hesitated, "Are there classmates together?"

  Tao Yuanyuan shook her head, "There's another girl. Other classmates said that searching for videos online would be fine, or watching Animal Planet. I think it's still better to experience it in person."

  Your classmate is very clever, those marine life can just be watched on TV, even if you went to the underwater world, you can't touch them. Anyway, they are all illusions, why do you have a sense of superiority that going to the underwater world is equivalent to experiencing it in person?

  "Two girls," Lin Kun hesitated, "Tomorrow is Sunday, the Ocean World will be too crowded, you've just started junior high school, I'm not very reassured..."

  His heart suddenly racing, Li Xiaobai couldn't care less that he hadn't eaten his fill, quietly putting down his bowl and chopsticks, planning to leave.

  "Little white... why don't you go with your sister tomorrow instead."

  "No way!" Seeing his parents' simultaneous displeasure, Li Xiaobai realized he had overreacted. "I'm not unwilling to go. In fact, I'd also like to go. However, I have to return to school tomorrow night for evening self-study. You're not unaware of the high school curriculum, missing one class might affect my grades during the college entrance exams, and it's not just a single point, but hundreds of rankings. It's possible that because of this one point, I'll be left behind."

  "It's not like it will delay your class, and when the time comes, you can go directly from Shiniu to your school, which is not far away, right?" Lin Kun looked at Tao Huan again, "Huanhuan, how long do you plan to stay there?"

  "It won't be long before we're back anyway," Tao Huan said softly, "Uncle, since brother doesn't want to go, I can just go with my classmates. Brother is so busy, don't bother him."

  This is absolutely not the tone of a refusal, if it were a real refusal, it would be a decisive and impatient tone, with a strong sense of disgust. And what's with that pitiful look on your face?

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, Wang Jing disagreed.

  "Xiao Bai, won't be able to delay you for much longer. How come? You don't want to accompany your little sister?"

  Nowadays, if he still says he is unwilling, will his parents also be unwilling to recognize him as their son?

  Under all sorts of helpless circumstances, Li Xiaobai could only nod his head in agreement.

  So that's why he dislikes Tao Huan.

  Since she came, sleeping in is gone, private space is gone, and even some private belongings have become public goods.

  In short, holidays are for rest and relaxation, which has become synonymous with spending time with Tao Huan.

  Accompanying the prince to read books may also be the emperor's teacher, but accompanying his cousin to rest, she regards herself as a princess and will not produce any good intentions to let you add official titles.
