Lying in their cradles, they all had the same wrinkled little faces.
Qiao Yu slept peacefully, while Qiao Jingjing cried loudly.
The two photos have different colors, indicating they were not taken at the same time.
Qiao Jingjing is three years older than Qiao Yu.
On the second page, Qiao Yu is still a baby in a cradle.
Beside the crib, Qiao Jingjing, who is two or three years old, is wearing a white princess dress.
She bent down and kissed her younger brother's forehead.
... ... ....
On the third page, Qiao Yu, who had just been weaned, was sitting in the bathtub.
Qiao Jingjing squatted down to the side and reached out to pinch her younger brother's penis, causing Qiao Yu to burst into tears.
On page four, Qiao Yu, who is in kindergarten, and Qiao Jingjing, who is in elementary school, are posing side by side, both carrying small cloth bags.
The older sister delivered a chop to her younger brother's head.
As a child, Qiao Jingjing had a chubby, round face, while Qiao Yu was rather thin and small.
On page five, Qiao Jingjing has her arm around Qiao Yu's shoulder, and the two siblings' heads are close together.
The photo shows Qiao Jingjing, who has grown into a tall and beautiful young woman.
Her face has lost its roundness, her features are slender, her features are delicate, and her eyes are bright.
Qiao Yu still looked like a child, about twelve or thirteen years old.
He was a head shorter than Qiao Jingjing.
The photo on page six was probably taken around the same time as the previous one.
The two hadn't changed much; Qiao Jingjing, dressed in a ballet tutu, looked like a beautiful and elegant little swan.
An ugly duckling was sitting next to him.
The girl playfully tugged at her brother's face, and the brother gave his sister a disgusted look, the scene frozen in time.
Page 6, Page 7, Page 8...
Su Jinbei quietly flipped through the pages.
It's as if I'm seeing Qiao Jingjing and Qiao Yu's childhood.
They laughed and joked, and were constantly fighting; it was mostly the older sister who bullied the younger brother.
Of course, there are also occasional moments when the younger brother turns the tide and wins.
Until Qiao Yu went to high school, the two of them rarely had any photos taken together alone.
It's either a family photo or people standing neatly in a proper manner.
Time makes people grow, but it also creates invisible barriers.
Every pair of siblings will gradually drift apart as they grow up, no longer as close as they were in childhood.
Looking at the photo, Su Jinbei suddenly felt a faint sense of melancholy.
I can't figure out why.
It probably stems from the sensitivity and fragility of a female literary youth.
On second thought, no, maybe that's how it is with ordinary siblings.
But based on my own experience of spending time with them day and night.
It seems that time has not created a barrier between them; the "distance" in the photos is probably just for their parents to see.
noon.
After dinner, Qiao Yu suggested going to see a movie.
Su Jinbei readily agreed.
"Miss, shall we ride a shared bike or take a taxi?" Qiao Yu asked.
"I'll take a taxi. It's too hot to ride a bike."
Su Jinbei remained calm, unlike Qiao Jingjing who reacted dramatically.
Qiao Yu thought to himself, "Sure enough, this nickname is deadly to my older sister."
His royalties dropped slightly today, but it's okay, though he still needs some reassurance from Miss Wang.
Manuscript fees cannot keep rising; fluctuations are normal.
This is the system's explanation.
The system explained:
Ultimately, it's because the host's level is too low. Please cultivate diligently to help me level up.
Qiao Yu asked, "What level am I at when I reach the maximum cultivation level?"
"Can you reach in and retrieve bullets, or kick nuclear warheads?"
System answer:
[Please face reality, host. Your purpose in cultivating is simply to provide energy for this system. Don't overthink it.]
The system then elaborates on the law of conservation of energy and biological genetics.
Qiao Yu had no choice but to abandon his dream of becoming a chivalrous hero who could leap across rooftops and scale walls.
Qiao Yu and Su Jinbei had just left the house.
After finishing her call with her agent, Mo Xiangwan, Qiao Jingjing walked out of the room and looked around:
"Mom, where are my brother and Jinbei?"
"She went out, I think she went to see a movie." Qiao's mother was mopping the floor when she remembered something: "Jingjing, I looked at a few more young men for you, they're quite handsome."
Qiao Jingjing was inexplicably in a bad mood and said impatiently:
"Blind dates, blind dates, can't you do anything else besides setting me up on blind dates?"
……100 million.
127 Is Qiao Jingjing's drama going to flop? The hype has backfired.
Qiao Jingjing turned around and went back to her room, slamming the door shut.
Qiao's mother was bewildered. "This child."
Qiao Jingjing's room is on the south side.
From the window, you can see the gate of the residential complex.
She stood by the window, looking out, and happened to see Su Jinbei and Qiao Yu walking side by side toward the gate of the residential area.
The two seemed to be chatting and laughing.
Su Jinbei was very impolite and threw her bag to Qiao Yu.
Qiao Jingjing stared blankly at this scene, lost in thought.
She felt a little regretful.
She regretted bringing Qiao Yu and Su Jinbei together; there was no reason, she just regretted it.
At first, she thought that Su Jinbei definitely wouldn't like Qiao Yu, and that Qiao Yu had "repeatedly offended" her.
So he came up with the wicked idea of making empty promises to his younger brother.
Make him take his attention away from himself.
But seeing her younger brother and Su Jinbei getting closer and closer, she couldn't stand it anymore.
Qiao Jingjing attributed all of this to "forgetting her mother after marrying a wife".
She was that mother, and she didn't care whether Qiao's mother had any objections.
She stared blankly at the two figures walking away into the distance.
That night.
The old man was sitting in the living room watching the news when Aunt Qiao brought over a plate of grapes.
"Where are the two of them?"
The old man's eyes were glued to the television.
"I'll go back this afternoon."
Qiao's mother picked a grape and handed it to him.
The old man snorted coldly: "Two ingrates, they should have stayed home a few more days."
Qiao's mother complained, "Do you want to come back to see my face or get a beating? If you miss them, just say so. Stop being so dramatic."
"If it weren't for your bad temper, would Ayu and Jingjing be hiding outside and not coming home?"
The old man snorted, "What does this have to do with me? It's clearly you who arranged the blind dates, that's why our daughter isn't coming back."
There's a saying that goes, "If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too."
Look at this couple, passing the buck to each other.
Now we know who Qiao Yu and Qiao Jingjing learned it from.
When the topic of blind dates came up, Qiao's mother nudged her husband and frowned, saying:
"Old Joe, let me tell you, A-Yu is doing an internship now. Why don't we let him come back and stay?" (referring to a specific person, "367")
The old man glanced at her and asked curiously:
"Come back to live here? I'm worried about Jingjing living alone."
Qiao's mother thought to herself, "I wouldn't feel comfortable letting the two of them stay here."
"Didn't you ever think about how inconvenient it would be for the two of them to live together?" Qiao's mother said.
