The sofa in the living room is in an "L" shape, with a transparent coffee table in front of it. Duan Jiaxu and Sang Yan sit side by side, with two people's distance between them.

The remaining end position is empty.

Sang Zhi just subconsciously sat down there, right next to Duan Jiaxu.

At this time, due to this unexpected situation, Sang Zhi's mind went blank. She even forgot to put her phone away and was still facing Duan Jiaxu, looking uneasy and nervous.

Catching a glimpse of her appearance, Sang Yan threw the game controller aside, frowned and asked, "Kid, what are you taking pictures of?"

Sang Zhi didn't know how to explain it and raised his head nervously.

Noticing the direction in which the phone was pointed, Duan Jiaxu raised his eyebrows and curved the corners of his mouth. Then, he leaned forward slightly, moved closer to Sang Zhi, and said with interest: "Huh? Take a picture.

me?"

Sang Zhi shrank back and immediately put the phone screen on the pillow to block it: "No, no."

"No?"

"..."

"Why do you take pictures of brother?" Duan Jiaxu drawled, with a few laughs in his words, "Is brother so good-looking?"

Hearing this, Sang Yan immediately sneered: "Can you please have some face?"

He seemed to have thought of something, and turned his head to look at Sang Zhi: "You don't want to take a photo to accuse——"

Before he could speak, Sang Zhi stood up abruptly, without looking at the two of them, and spoke very quickly: "I told my classmates that I have a very handsome brother."

Sang Yan's voice stopped.

Her cheeks were a little red, and she moved towards the bedroom as she spoke. It seemed that she really couldn't think of any other reason, so she held it in for a long time and then said: "——But I'm embarrassed to show them your photo."

Sang Yan: "..."

After saying that, Sang Zhi immediately ran back to the room, leaving a silence.

The living room instantly became quiet, so quiet that it seemed inexplicably awkward. The two men sat at each end, with completely different expressions on their faces, and a sharp contrast in emotions.

After a while, Sang Yan turned to look at Duan Jiaxu, her lip lines straightened, her face gradually lost expression, and a ball of depression welled up in her heart: "I thought she was going to take a photo to complain to my parents."

Duan Jiaxu tightened the curve of his lips and pretended to hum in a calm manner.

As if recalling Sang Zhi's words again, Sang Yan slowly exhaled, trying to suppress his temper, but his anger still ignited: "It's better to file a fucking complaint."

"..."

It's quiet for a few more seconds.

"Fuck." Sang Yan couldn't bear it anymore and stood up suddenly, "Just wait here."

The next second, Duan Jiaxu stood up after him, with the intention of stopping him. His chin was slightly lowered, and he chuckled: "Brother, don't worry about this matter with children, right?"

Sang Yan: "?"

Duan Jiaxu: "Children are not sensible, so there is no need."

Sang Yan looked at him expressionlessly.

"Children of this age," Duan Jiaxu patted him on the shoulder, his voice paused for a few seconds, as if he was trying to hold back his laughter, "it is true that she is a bit concerned about face. Can you please understand her?"

Want noodles.

Reason, solution, one, next.

"..."

Sang Yan's eyebrows skipped a beat: "I understand your mother."

Sang Zhi stayed in her room for a few minutes, squatting by the door and listening to what was going on outside. She could vaguely hear what Sang Yan and Duan Jiaxu were saying, but because they were not close, she couldn't hear clearly.

She thought about the excuse she just said.

It still seems very reasonable.

Waited for a while.

Sang Zhi dug out the "trophies" he had just found out of boredom.

The pixels are not clear. From the angle Sang Zhi took the photo, we can only see Duan Jiaxu's profile, which is three-dimensional and clear, but also looks soft. The corners of his lips are slightly curved, and he seems to be in a good mood.

Sang Zhi suddenly felt that everything just happened was worth it.

She couldn't help laughing, and touched the screen with her fingertips, then quickly took it back.

Sang Zhi glanced at it a few more times, then suddenly turned off the screen, holding the phone and kicking her feet. She managed to calm down, pretending not to care at all, got up and looked in the mirror.

When she felt there was no flaw, Sang Zhi coughed twice and hid her phone under the pillow. She quietly opened the door and glanced outside. Then she quickly ran to Sang Yan's room and sat down at the desk.

.

Sang Zhi opened the physics exercise book and deliberately started to find something to do for herself.

But all his attention was focused on the living room.

Not long after, someone walked in.

Sang Zhi didn't look up, but she could guess it was Duan Jiaxu. She scratched her head and pretended to do the questions.

Duan Jiaxu sat down next to her, supported his face with one hand, and glanced at the exercise book she was working on: "Child, show me your final exam paper."

Sang Zhi paused, took out the test paper from the physics book, and put it in front of him. She looked back at the original question, and her pen tip quickly stopped. She hesitated, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, can you please stop reading?"

You called me that."

Hearing this, Duan Jiaxu raised his eyes, as if he didn't understand what she said: "Huh?"

Sang Zhi looked at him but said nothing.

Duan Jiaxu reacted: "Child?"

Sang Zhi looked away and nodded silently.

Duan Jiaxu: "Don't you like my brother shouting like that?"

"No." Sang Zhi muttered, "It's just that I'm not a child anymore."

"Isn't he a child?" Duan Jiaxu felt funny, "Then you think you are a big child?"

"..."

Sang Zhi pursed her lips and ignored him.

Duan Jiaxu didn't think this was a big deal and didn't care too much: "Brother, this isn't something I'm used to."

Sang Zhi's stance was very firm: "Then you have to change this habit."

"Okay, then how do you shout?" His voice twisted, "Xiao Sangzhi?"

Sang Zhi moved her lips, feeling a little dissatisfied.

Can't the word "small" be removed?

No matter what, we must emphasize that she is small.

never mind.

Sang Zhi decided to endure it.

Anyway, at least it's better than the original.

She didn't argue with him and nodded reluctantly.

Hearing her mention, Duan Jiaxu recalled how he looked when he saw her for the first time, reached out and rubbed her head: "She seems to have grown taller."

Sang Zhi said seriously: "It will still grow."

"Yeah." Duan Jiaxu said in a casual tone, not sounding serious, "When the time comes, I will grow taller than my brother, so I can protect him."

"..." Sang Zhi imagined the scene and muttered, "It doesn't have to be that high."

Duan Jiaxu just laughed and continued to read her test paper: "Kid, you haven't listened to the class yet, have you?"

We just said it, and now we call it that.

Sang Zhi pretended not to hear.

Duan Jiaxu lazily said: "Did you hear what brother said?"

Sang Zhi felt aggrieved, but she still didn't dare to pretend that she didn't hear anything, so she leaned over to defend herself: "I heard it, but I just don't understand it."

"Why did you choose the wrong question on the change of state of matter?"

"Oh." Sang Zhi pointed, "I wrote too fast. I originally wanted to choose A."

Duan Jiaxu smiled half-heartedly and said, "Choose b for this question."

"..."

Their eyes met.

Sang Zhi felt a little embarrassed, and felt that she could not lose her momentum, so she simply said confidently: "Anyway, I just don't understand. I took the class, but I was too stupid to understand."

"Brother asked you to listen carefully to the lecture before." Duan Jiaxu said, "Forgot?"
