No one dislikes straightforward complints, especially when they co from a younger sister.
Gu Che couldn’t hold back; his smile was particularly bright.
Tuanzi happily snuggled up to him and couldn’t help but ask how he managed to make the clay figurine look so good.
The last ti she went to the shop to sculpt, she made ugly figures of her big brother and second brother, and didn’t even dare to fire them.
"Second Brother, are you one of those geniuses who gets it imdiately?"
Her little pudgy face was full of admiration.
Gu Che, who actually failed many tis: "...Maybe, I just, I just sculpted smoothly."
"Wow, Second Brother, you’re so amazing."
Tuanzi was equally proud, "Miaomiao has a super amazing second brother!"
Gu Che shifted his guilty gaze and accidentally t Gu Cheng’s eyes.
Oh no, Big Brother won’t expose , right?
Tuanzi hadn’t been back long and hadn’t experienced Gu Che’s school days, so she didn’t know he was terrible at crafts. Back when their parents were busy with work, it was Big Brother who did his handicraft howork for him.
Gu Che felt nervous, but fortunately, Gu Cheng only glanced over before quickly looking away. He breathed a sigh of relief.
Tuanzi joyfully snuggled up to him for a while before running off to open other gifts.
Gu Yunmu had prepared a flashy gift, and Gu Qize, with experience, didn’t go overboard preparing a ton of gifts this ti but carefully selected what he thought was the most suitable gift for Tuanzi.
Other cousins and senior brothers also gave gifts they considered suitable.
Among them, Wen Li and Gu Li’s gifts were quite similar. Both created a novel based on Tuanzi and gave her all the rights to it.
Tuanzi opened the novel from Gu Li and read it with relish.
Gu Zhuo also joined in to check out his brother’s new work.
After reading for a while, he couldn’t help but laugh, "Little Li has a childlike heart."
"He wrote Miaomiao to be so cute."
Tuanzi deliberately swayed left and right, gently bumping into Gu Zhuo.
"That’s because Miaomiao is already cute," Gu Zhuo said with a smile as he steadied her. "Little Li just restored your cuteness."
Tuanzi’s eyes smiled into crescents.
Keeping this good mood, she opened the novel written by Wen Li.
The first page had a solemn declaration that he had learned from many fairy tales to write this work and promised warmth.
Tuanzi: "...I feel the more he emphasizes, the more there’s a problem."
Gu Zhuo nodded in agreent.
Tuanzi looked around and pulled in the crying Gu Yunmu, enthusiastically inviting him to read together.
"You’ve invited so warmly."
Gu Yunmu hesitated a bit.
But after reading the first story, he couldn’t help but rub his arms. After the second story, he tried to hide behind Tuanzi. After finishing the third, he gave up and ran to find Gu Qize.
"Bro, it’s safer to stay by your side."
Gu Qize: "?" He would never understand his brother’s thought process.
When Tuanzi was almost done reading, Wen Li ca over, biting a lollipop.
He humbly said, "This ti, I wrote it barely passably, but it should catch your eye."
As he finished speaking, he t Tuanzi’s big red eyes.
"Eh? I wrote a heartwarming fairy tale, Miaomiao, why are you about to cry?"
Tuanzi’s face fell.
"But everyone’s gone; is this still called a fairy tale?"
Obviously, Wen Li’s understanding of a fairy tale differed from theirs.
He stroked his chin, "Though they all died, leaving their souls behind to accompany the protagonist forever. Isn’t that nice?"
Tuanzi shook her head vigorously.
"Not good at all! This kind of companionship is too cruel, eating alone, walking alone, and watching TV alone. Why did you write them all dead?"
Tuanzi huffed, "They only went to the the park for an adventure; how could sothing go wrong?"
"Because that the park had an incident, and the deceased keep lingering..."
Seeing his sister about to blow her top, Wen Li quickly tried to justify his creation.
"Mainly, I’m collecting material recently, investigating a the park. I haven’t started my book yet, so I used the material in yours."
"The park?"
Tuanzi blinked curiously, "A true story? What happened at the the park?"
Wen Li casually ntioned an incident that had occurred.
"The the park had a trial run before its official opening. A staff mber had an accident during a test on a project. The park compensated the family and suppressed the matter, but the opening schedule remained unchanged."
Gu Yunmu, who joined them, widened his eyes, "No park-wide inspection?"
"If there had been a full inspection, subsequent incidents wouldn’t have happened," Wen Li’s smile was a bit cold. "Dozens of tourists had accidents on that project, eight died. The park was then shut down, and its manager was punished. But the real creator of the the park is still developing their company."
Tuanzi was still confused, but Gu Yunmu caught on.
"You plan to write a novel, gain fa, and then during a dia interview reveal the source location to direct public attention to that behind-the-scenes boss?"
Gu Yunmu: "What’s your aim? To make their company’s stock value drop?"
Wen Li smiled gleefully, "Just want them to be uncomfortable; if they’re uncomfortable, then I’m comfortable."
Gu Yunmu shivered.
But Wen Li’s way of doing things was quite in line with his taste, so he said loyally, "When your book cos out, I’ll buy a thousand copies!"
After systematic analysis, Tuanzi also understood, raising her little paw, "Miaomiao wants to buy too! Miaomiao can even advertise for you!"
She wasn’t short on variety show invitations; as long as she expressed interest in participating in one, Jin Tong and her brothers would surely be contacted by many people.
Sumr had passed, and shortly after, it would be winter break. Winter variety shows would still be competitive, and she would officially celebrate her sixth birthday in winter.
Gu Yunmu not only wanted to buy the book himself but also turned around and told Gu Qize. He urged Gu Qize, "Bro, you should buy it too; we can give it as a benefit to our employees."
Gu Qize didn’t mind buying the book, but he was doubtful about giving horror novels as benefits to employees.
"Not everyone likes this style of novel. More specifically, not everyone likes reading."
Suspiciously, he sized up his overly excited brother, "Could it be you’re hoping others get scared too, just like you?"
This ti, he finally connected with his brother’s thinking.
Gu Yunmu, caught with his real intention, whistled his way out.
Gu Qize had a bad premonition. His brother now held a position in the group and could influence year-end benefits. Chances were he might actually do such a thing.
No way, he’d have to supervise! He didn’t want employees to co back after New Year reading horror novels and start work in a state of ntal fatigue.
"You stop right there!"
