Chapter 123: The top student’s little Desktop Pet 17 (part 1 of 2)
Unfortunately, he couldn’t kiss him even if he wanted to do so. In the first place, the two words ‘big brother’ was the greatest hindrance. The only thing Kong Baiji was currently glad about was his insistence on not changing his surname as well as not entering the Shen’s household registration. So, his elder brother ident.i.ty had no legal effect, and all his friends and relatives were also aware that he wasn’t a biological son of the Shen family. Tong Tong was still young, and had just reached the stage of love, in which a young man will experience the first awakening of love, which was still a far cry from being able to talk about marriage independently. This elder brother ident.i.ty would, on the contrary, contain a lot of benefits that the others would not be able to easily obtain.
Kong Baiji wasn’t the quick-tempered kind of boy who had just turned 20. The loss of his mother at a very young age and the various experiences made him even more mature than his peers, in addition to having a strong and healthy personality, as well as calm and rational mind. When facing things, he can quickly understand what he really wants, and can instantly think about what would be the best method to handle it correctly.
Just like when he saw the hickey on his little brother, but had never questioned him; although he really wished to beat Gu Qiange up, but he still didn’t say any slanderous remarks about Gu Qiange in the face of his little brother, to avoid triggering the slightest bit of dissatisfaction or rebellious behaviour from his little brother.
After successfully securing Shen Tong’s itinerary for tomorrow, Kong Baiji unhurriedly lowered his head and took a sip of the milk tea the moment the youth was about to lower his head to take another sip. He then asked in a seemingly unintentional way while drinking: “That’s right, had Gu Qiange taught you the efficient learning method he mentioned before?”
Since it was a couple’s cup, it would naturally be designed to be very couple like. So, when two people drink at the same time, their faces would be very close together, their breaths would intertwine, and they could only see each other’s faces in their eyes. So, Shen Tong once again felt that sultry and ambiguous atmosphere he felt at the fitting room before, but Kong Baji’s calm expression made him think that he was being oversensitive, so, he spurned himself instead. The other person’s question successfully diverted his entire attention, so he compliantly answered: “Not yet.”
But Shen Tong didn’t dare talk about Gu Qiange’s coaxing nor the pestering kisses and hugs to his elder brother, but only briefly said: “He needed to go to the research inst.i.tute for a meeting, so, he let me play the game cabin in the laboratory for a while. It was already very late when I stopped playing……”
Kong Baiji looked at the long drooping lashes of his little brother with a deep and pampering gaze from an inconspicuous angle, but his thoughts instantly turned back and forth several times. The game cabin had yet to be officially released in the market, and there was probably only one finish product in the entire world, so, the importance was naturally self-evident. All researchers attaches great importance to their researches. Kong Baiji could still remember that time when he had just gotten acquainted with Gu Qiange in school. A female student, who had a crush on Gu Qiange, had pursued him for an entire year, but had ultimately never been able to even enter the door of his laboratory.
–But Gu Qiange actually didn’t mind using the result of his years of research as a ‘toy’ to coax Tong Tong, and had even left him alone in the laboratory to do as he please.
Kong Baiji couldn’t help but make a new a.s.sessment over Gu Qiange’s feelings towards Shen Tong. He doesn’t feel that the other likes his younger brother due to some other intention. After all, this younger brother in his eyes was perfect without flaws from character to appearance. Liking him can only show that Gu Qiange’s vision was pretty good. The main question was to what extent does the other party like him. Kong Baiji reached out and gently used his thumb to wipe off the cream on his younger brother’s lips without batting an eye, “Was the game cabin fun?”
“Very fun.” Shen Tong nodded without hesitation.
“It is truly a breakthrough invention with unlimited business opportunities.” The black-bellied great older brother, not only didn’t speak ill of Gu Qiange, but had even praised him instead: “During the time I was still in Stanford University, Gu Qiange was a year lower than me, but he had already taken out several good patents. The whole school knew his name. He not only had a superhuman IQ, but was also very persistent, that he constantly neglects sleep and forgets eating in order to research and experiment. If everything goes smoothly, he will definitely achieve even higher achievements in the future, and become a scientist who will amaze the whole world. ”
After having heard this, Shen Tong suddenly had an unexpected thought that he was actually a stumbling block to Gu Qiange’s future, thathis actions of drinking milk tea subconsciously paused all of a sudden. But Kong Baiji switched the topic at this time, and showed a rare smile, as if he was remembering some happy incident: “I remember Tong Tong say that he also wants to be a scientist when he grows up when he was young, in order to build a s.p.a.ceship to take his big brother to fly to the stars in the sky.”
How can the whimsical words of a child be taken seriously? With their ideas that constantly change day after day, they would say s.p.a.ceship today, then Transformers tomorrow, and would finally completely forget everything the day after tomorrow. But Kong Baiji remembered everything, without forgetting a single word. He then quirked his lips and continued to say: “You even drew a picture of the s.p.a.ceship for me, with two seated little people onboard, then earnestly stated that one was baby and the other was big brother.”
Shen Tong also remembered this matter, and recalled how particularly ugly that drawing of his was. The body of the ship was colored with all kinds of colors, the little person was also crookedly drawn, the inscription at the side was even more appalling, as he was still awful in writing his own name. The proper Tong character was even lacking two horizontal lines. Although his entire family were so smart, but for some unknown reasons, only his IQ had never been online since he was a young.
“It doesn’t matter, you still have your looks.” The white floccule, which hadn’t uttered a sound nor responded for such a long time, suddenly conveyed such words, “It’s also fortunate that your face value is so high, that it’s enough for you to live by just relying on your looks.”
Shen Tong was unable have a row with the system, because he recalled that, that ugly drawing was still nicely locked in the drawer by Kong Baiji, so, he immediately said: “Big brother isn’t allowed to mention this drawing anymore, are you still holding onto it? You should quickly throw it away, it’s so ugly.”
Kong Baiji calmly replied: “How could it be ugly? Aside from this drawing, I still have several other drawings.” Then made a deliberate pause, “–En, two of which could be regarded as an abstract masterpiece.”
Shen Tong couldn’t help protesting with a flushed face: “This isn’t fair, you have quite a lot of embarra.s.sing evidences of my childhood, but I don’t have any of yours!”
“Little fool, I am much older than you. You still weren’t born when I was a kid. What’s more, how can this be considered as an embarra.s.sment? These are the growth traces of my beloved younger brother.” Kong Baiji’s voice unconsciously softened: “So for me, every step is worth remembering and collecting, and no matter where you go or how much you grow up, you would still be my most important one.”
