Sheng Yang was confused.
Sheng Hanjing got a cup then walked to the drinking fountain with the bottle of mineral water, poured some hot water into the cup then added some mineral water, and mixed everything before handing the cup to her.
The water was warm—neither hot nor cold.
Sheng Yang looked at him and grimaced naughtily.
She didn’t want to accept it, but she couldn’t resist his gentle smile.
She could refuse to listen to anyone, even her parents, but she couldn’t resist her Second Brother’s gentle gestures.
Sometimes she thought her Second Brother might be able to convince even enemies on the battlefield to surrender with his gentle smile.
Sheng Yang accepted the warm water and took a sip. She had to admit that drinking this warm water was much more soothing than drinking cold water. Without shocking her body with cold water, her stomach felt much better.
Sheng Hanjing smiled, watching her sip water. He then suddenly remembered that their eldest brother wouldn’t come back to attend Sheng Yang’s coming-of-age party. After thinking about it for a while, he asked, “Yangyang, have Mom, Dad, and Yuxi ever mentioned Eldest Brother to you?”
“A little bit.” Sheng Yang paused and said, “They said Eldest Brother isn’t human.”
The corners of Sheng Hanjing’s mouth twitched. Good, at least his younger sister had a good memory.
“Then do you care about Eldest Brother?” In fact, he wanted to ask whether she cared that Eldest Brother wouldn’t come back to attend her coming-of-age party.
After he said that, he looked at his sister nervously.
He would certainly be on his sister’s side. Although he had known Eldest Brother longer, unlike Eldest Brother, his younger sister needed more care.
Of course, it would be best if the two could exist peacefully.
Sheng Yang was stunned then replied without thinking, “Why would I care about him?”
Sheng Hanjing was a little surprised. He got the sense that Yangyang was speaking somewhat similarly to his eldest brother.
Neither of them was affected by emotions.
He remembered that Yuxi once said that every time their younger sister looked at him with a straight face, it reminded him of the way Eldest Brother scolded him.
To be honest, there was a real similarity between the two.
One was obsessed with work while the other was immersed in her studies.
Thinking this, Sheng Hanjing couldn’t help laughing out loud. Now he really looked forward to witnessing the first meeting between his eldest brother and his younger sister.
Sheng Yang didn’t know why Second Brother suddenly laughed, so she just sipped her water, confused. After a while, she saw Second Brother standing up and stroking her hair gently. “Hungry? Let me make breakfast for you. As a kid, you should drink milk for breakfast. If you don’t, you won’t grow tall.”
Huh? Sheng Yang tilted her head and watched Sheng Hanjing running towards the kitchen looking happy. She didn’t know what she did to give him the illusion that she was a kid.
But in an instant, Sheng Yang smiled. In fact, being a kid wasn’t half-bad.

In order to quickly complete the tasks assigned by Kang Weizhen and Sheng You, the invitations for Sheng Yang’s coming-of-age party were sent out not only to the students of Class 7 but also to the teachers of Class 7.
In the office, Ms. Chen and Ms. Cui were both surrounded.
“Ms. Chen, Ms. Cui, congratulations! You can witness this grand meeting.” One teacher from Class 3 was envious. “If you see a star or something, remember to ask for an autograph for us.”
“Alas, Ms. Chen is really lucky to have such a well-behaved student with such a good family.”
