Chapter 9 Part 1
Translator: Rya
For the first time, Chu Xiaoyi was in doubt of his popularity. He was often surrounded by crowds at the airport, but he was almost out of popularity in his own neighborhood. If his fan base only consisted of young women, excluding male security guards, it seemed a bit unreasonable. He was on the Spring Festival Gala two days ago?
Both brother and sister entered the community through the entrance. As usual, Chu Xiaoxiao replied politely and nicely: "Thank you."
Chu Xiaoyi was still a little unwilling, and asked the security guard politely: "Did you watched the Spring Festival Gala?"
The security guard who only greeted the resident and now that his suspicions were dispelled, his attitude became much better, and he cheerfully responded, "Yes, it's replayed these days!"
Chu Xiaoyi: "Then, do you know who I am?"
The security guard laughed, "I know. "
Chu Xiaoyi breathed a long sigh of relief. It turned out that the security guard didn’t not recognize himself, but seriously performed his job duties.
Security guard: "Are you Xiao Xiao's brother? This is the first time I've seen you?"
Chu Xiaoyi: "..." You haven't known about me less than a day!
Seeing that the other party looked subtle, the security guard hesitated and said, "Isn't he your big brother?" He remembered that Chu Xiaoxiao's father didn't look like this, so he speculated based on his age and face. Did he accidentally guess wrong?
Chu Xiaoyi was afraid of further misunderstandings, and said hurriedly: "I am her brother, Xiao Xiao 's elder brother..."
Chu Xiaoyi: I am not as famous in the community as my sister, and I have become "Xiao Xiao's elder brother."
When Chu Xiaoxiao entered the community, she already familiar with it. She had already walked forward for a while. But when she turned back, she saw that her brother was still talking to the security guard, and urged: "It's time to go."
She didn't understand why her brother wanted to mention the Spring Festival Gala. Was it something to be proud of that he was remembered for his performance on TV?
The siblings carried the fruit home, and they took a short break before ushering in a new round of dinner. After the meal, Chu Xiaoxiao waited for her father, Chu Jiadong, to finish his work. After a while, she took out the basketball at home and suggested: "Daddy, let's go play ball."
Chu Xiaoxiao recently discovered that Chu Jiadong was unusually silent. Since the return of the cheap brother, his father had been a man with his tail between his legs. He either smiled cautiously every day or cooked in the kitchen all day long, completely devoid of his former energy. Dad and Elder Brother didn't communicate directly, they always passed the news through the mouth of others.
If the two stayed alone, Chu Xiaoyi would tend to lower his head and scroll his mobile phone, while Chu Jiadong would be anxiously rubbing his hands beside him. In short, there was hardly any communication moment.
Chu Xiaoxiao used to play ball with her father. She noticed Chu Jiadong's recent weakness and decided to take care of her old father. After all, she had been forced to stay with the cheap brother for the past two days and hadn't interacted with her father for a long time. She was a fair little girl who had to take care of everyone in the family.
As soon as Chu Jiadong was about to say yes, Chu Xiaoyi came out of the house. He saw the basketball in the Little Thing's hand, felt that it was bigger than her little head, and teased: "Yo, can you still play basketball, huh?"
Chu Jiadong saw the elder son's interest, and smiled embarrassedly at Chu Xiaoxiao: "Or do you want to go play ball with your brother?"
Chu Xiaoxiao was a little annoyed. She always felt that the timing of the cheap brother was too good. If Chu Xiaoyi wanted to play, then Dad would never participate again. Chu Jiadong was like an old beast caring about other people's territory. He rarely appeared in Chu Xiaoyi's activity area unless there were other people nearby, such as Chu Xiaoxiao, Xiao Bi, etc.
When Chu Xiaoyi heard this, he immediately guessed what the father and daughter had just talked about and fell silent for a while. He communicated most with Chu Xiaoxiao and Xiao Bi at home and kept a certain distance from his father Chu Jiadong.
Chu Xiaoxiao looked down disappointedly: “Daddy, aren't you going?"
Chu Jiadong: "I won't..."
Chu Xiaoyi: "Let's go together."
"Huh?" Chu Jiadong was quite surprised when he heard the words. He saw his son had turned back to the house and whispered,"...Okay?"
When Chu Xiaoyi finished speaking, he went back to the house to pick up his shoes. He did not want to look small-minded, sullenly said, "What is not okay, I don’t mind it."
Since Chu Xiaoyi said so, Chu Jiadong had no reason to refuse. Chu Xiaoxiao succeeded in pulling up her father and elder brother. They headed to the basketball court in the community that evening.
The sky in the capital was now a light blue-purple color, mixed with some golden glow, the last remnants of the sunset. All three of them walked quietly on the road, Chu Xiaoyi was between her father and brother, feeling like the Berlin Wall in a foreign language example, completely separating the two sides.
Chu Xiaoyi tapped the basketball all the way, searching for the touch that he once had, making the ball bounce rhythmically. There was no one in the open-air court in winter. Chu Xiaoyi dribbled the ball freely, passed the ball to Chu Xiaoxiao, and smiled: "Can you play?"
Chu Xiaoyi passed the ball lightly, and Chu Xiaoxiao caught it easily. she looked at Chu Jiadong a little hesitantly, not knowing how the three should play the ball. Chu Jiadong comforted: "You guys play first, Daddy will watch for a while, and then come over to play."
Chu Jiadong stood next to the basketball hoop and took on the stance of a spectator. Chu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to run towards Chu Xiaoyi holding the ball. It was the first time that she played with the cheap brother, surely they had no tacit cooperation.
Chu Xiaoyi who had not played basketball for a long time, recovered his high school skills once he touched the ball, and showed off his fancy dribbling skills. He used to play basketball in high school and led the team to first place, and his great skills made him famous at school since that day. During the three years in school, he had been courted by countless girls.
