Could it be that his excitement from playing had caused this?

“Understood . I"ll pay attention to it next time to avoid such thing from happening again . ”

With that, he smiled and promised, “Mommy, rest a.s.sured; I"ll be diligent in taking care of little brother in the future!”

Youyou leaned against the bed and breathed continuously into the paper bag in his hands . His gaze, however, gradually landed on Little Yichen"s resolute face .

"… I"ll be diligent in taking care of little brother in the future!"

Such powerful and resonant words, despite the tender voice, revealed their reliability and hit him right into his heart .

His brows slightly smoothened, his eyes slightly curved, and his rosy lips, which were hidden by the paper bag, lightly arched into a smile .

This big brother of his seemed to be very reliable .

He was unlike what he had initially imagined him to be: a fool .

He was surprisingly reliable .

Youyou"s condition soon stabilized . Little Yichen immediately walked to his bedside, held his shoulders to help him lay flat down, and even smoothened the blanket for him .

She stepped forward and took a serious gander at the younger boy . Seeing that he had mostly recovered, she was no longer worried .

“Tired from playing?” She pinched his little face . “Look at you; sweaty all over . Are you so happy from playing?”

His older brother looked at him with a face full of expectations .

He took a gander at his older twin . With his cheeks flushed, he pretended to be indifferent and answered, “Yeah . It"s all right but just a little boring . ”

A little boring…

The older boy"s eyes drooped a little for a moment as his mouth pouted .

“If you"re tired, take a nap first . When you"re awake, mommy will give you a bath . ”

“All right . Is mommy accompanying me, then?” Youyou grinned .

“Mommy"s going to pack the luggage; I"ll come back in a while . Let big brother accompany you first, okay?” She coaxed him .

The smile in his eyes faded a little and then took a glimpse of Little Yichen, who was bending over the bedside, just like a puppy wagging its tail and looking at him with sparkling eyes .

“All right . ” He raised a brow and pulled up the blanket to cover half of his face, revealing only his eyes . The disappointment was apparent in his eyes .

Albeit his lips faintly curved down at the corner, he did not refuse this time .

His older twin"s eyes lit up slightly .

Even though the younger twin"s face did not reveal anything, in the older boy"s eyes, his proud little brother had certainly opened up to him a bit!

“Mommy, I"ll take good care of little brother . ”

“All right . Call me if something is up . ” She wanted to give more chances for the brothers to improve their relationship .

The six years were almost like a flood; it diluted the strong bond that the brothers should have in the first place .

Now, she wished that the two children could get closer; they should at least not be strangers to each other .

The older boy obviously liked the younger one very much, but the latter seemed a little aloof to the former .

The moment she left the room, the younger twin hid his face completely under the blanket with the intention to take a nap .

He was about to drift off to sleep, but his older brother pulled away the blanket from his face . “You can"t cover yourself fully with the blanket while you sleep; it"s not good for the body . ”

Youyou: “…”

Yichen"s handsome small face magnified in front of him . “Little brother, are you going to sleep already?”

“I"m sleepy,” he blandly answered . Turning over, he coldly faced his back to his older twin .

Thump, thump, thump… The older boy ran to the other side of the bed and lay in front of him, his face lit by a smile . “Are you thirsty? Do you want to drink water?”
