Chapter 492: Chapter 492: Unmatched by Anyone (3)_1

"That Changchong... Isn’t Xiaobai sleeping downstairs at night?" Ruan Jie asked, being at an age full of energy, he was extremely interested in this new member of the family, but also a bit scared, so he didn’t dare to treat Xiaobai as he did with the meaty Rouge like before, and could only sneakily seek out Ruan Jiaojiao for information.

"Mhm, should be sleeping under the stairs, Xiaobai gets hot easily." Ruan Jiaojiao said, intending to walk away from him, but Ruan Jie caught her arm, leaving Ruan Jiaojiao looking at him in puzzlement.

"Come here, someone asked your brother to bring you something." Ruan Jie said, pulling her into the room he shared with Ruan Hao.

Ruan Hao was sitting on the edge of the bed reading a book, but as soon as he saw Ruan Jiaojiao come in, he immediately put it down. His bed and Ruan Jie’s were facing each other, one on each side.

Ruan Jiaojiao saw Ruan Jie rummaging through his school bag, so she first went to Ruan Hao’s side, snuggled into his arms on her own accord, and curiously looked at the book he had placed on the table.

Upon looking, she was surprised to find that he was actually reading a book entirely in English!

"Big brother, you’re so amazing." She turned around, her gaze full of admiration for Ruan Hao.

However, she quickly remembered something.

After finishing high school, Ruan Hao had been admitted to Qing University, but went abroad to study in the second year. Was he starting to read these all-English books now because he planned to study overseas in advance?

She remembered that their uncle, when he was around, had indeed mentioned this a few times; these books were probably left behind by him.

Ruan Hao merely smiled upon hearing her, playfully pinched her little nose, and before he could speak, Ruan Jie handed over a hard paper box from across the room.

"This is from your Zhen brother; he bought it for you to play with." Ruan Jie said, placing the paper box in her hands.

Looking at the packaging, Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t tell what it was. It was only after opening it that she realized it was actually a game console.

It was the most basic game console of the era—Water Ring Toss.

Water Ring Toss was a popular game at the time, with a plastic screen filled with water inside, and by pressing the buttons on the left and right, water would shoot out, allowing you to loop rings onto pegs—the faster you looped them, the more impressive you were.

"Do you like it?" Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao turning it over and over, not yet giving an opinion, Ruan Jie asked.

"Yeah, I like it. Brother, thank my Zhen brother for me." Ruan Jiaojiao said, burying her little head and immediately started playing, but after two minutes, she hadn’t looped a single ring!

She felt a bit dejected, her little mouth pouting and her little eyebrows tightly furrowed.

"Here, watch your brother play for you." Ruan Jie took the toy and quickly looped all the rings in, earning Ruan Jiaojiao’s admiring starry-eyed gaze and he laughed triumphantly, "Hahaha, you’ll get the hang of it after playing a few times, don’t rush."

"Okay." Ruan Jiaojiao nodded, just about to take it back and continue playing, when she saw a figure quickly pass by the door.

Only then did Ruan Jiaojiao remember that she still had a little buddy to appease, and she hastily packed up the toy and chased after.

She thought Xiu Xi would go back to his room, and was ready to go straight there, but when passing by her own room, she found him sitting stiffly on her bed with his back straight, his hair still dripping wet.

She hurriedly took a spare towel from her closet, climbed onto the bed, and stood over him to wipe his hair.

"Xiu brother, are you upset?" She asked while wiping.

"..." Xiu Xi, unmoving as a mountain.

"Why?’ Ruan Jiaojiao asked.
