Chapter 581 - 457: Second Update

Friday afternoon.

"Why the long face?"

When Ning Youguang picked up Ning Youyu from school, he only showed a brief moment of happiness at seeing his sister, and quickly reverted to a troubled look.

"A classmate broke my iPad." Ning Youyu’s mouth quivered, almost bursting into tears.

Ning Youguang’s expression didn’t change much, "Your iPad is broken, huh? Can I see it?"

Ning Youyu gloomily took out an iPad with a shattered screen from his backpack.

"It’s pretty smashed up." Ning Youguang looked at the iPad and asked, "Was it a boy or a girl who broke it? Why did they break your iPad?"

"A girl." Ning Youyu said unhappily, "She’s the one seated in front of me. I was listening to the lesson after class, and she wanted me to play with her. I said I wanted to listen, and she got mad and broke my iPad."

"The little girl has quite the temper." Ning Youguang handed the broken iPad back to his brother, "Pack it up, let’s go home first."

Forty minutes later, at home.

Ning Youguang placed a plate of washed fruit and a warm cup of milk in front of Ning Youyu, "What’s the name of the classmate who broke your iPad?"

Ning Youyu gave her a name.

Ning Youguang said, "Eat some food here, I’ll go help you get justice."

Ning Youyu was stunned, "Help me get justice?"

"Your iPad was smashed, wasn’t it?" Ning Youguang took out her phone.

Next, Ning Youyu watched in shock as his sister cursed and shouted on the phone with the mother of the girl who broke his iPad for half an hour —

"Maybe to us parents, an iPad doesn’t seem like a big deal, but to my brother, it’s his possession, his property. Your daughter can’t just break it like that. You need to take responsibility."

"Also, my brother has the right to organize his own time after class. He has the right to refuse your daughter’s invitation. Please inform your daughter that if she insists on bossing my brother around again, we won’t be responsible for what happens."

"A boy? A boy is also a child. He doesn’t have a concept of gender yet, so please don’t misguide and misinterpret children with your own understanding."

"If you can’t teach her, I’ll have my brother teach your child!"

...

His sister is usually gentle and good-tempered, never raising her voice at home.

Ning Youyu had never seen her angry, so today was a first.

Ever since Ning Youguang called the other parent, he was left wide-eyed and speechless, forgetting to eat or drink his milk.

As Ning Youguang hung up the phone, Ning Youyu walked cautiously to her side to console her, "Sis, don’t be mad. I’ll ask Mom to buy me a new iPad. It doesn’t cost much."

"I’m not mad." Ning Youguang’s face instantly softened.

She sat down in front of Ning Youyu, setting her phone aside, "Why haven’t you eaten anything?"

"I was watching you make the call." Ning Youyu said, "You’re really not mad? Then why were you speaking so fiercely?"

Ning Youguang picked up a fork and stabbed a strawberry from Ning Youyu’s fruit plate, "Not mad, I was just pretending to be angry while communicating with your classmate’s mom."

"Pretending to be angry?" Ning Youyu was puzzled, "Why pretend to be angry when talking to her?"

"Because your classmate’s mom doesn’t see her daughter’s behavior as a problem." Ning Youguang gave Ning Youyu a sly smile, "And wouldn’t listen to reason, so if she wouldn’t hear logic, I needed her to see I was angry and not someone to be trifled with."

"Oh." Ning Youyu seemed to understand, "Just like when mom speaks to dad, dad doesn’t listen, but when mom gets mad, he listens?"

"Exactly." Ning Youguang giggled, "That’s precisely what it is."

"Okay." Ning Youyu, though young, was beginning to ponder the complex nuances of human nature, "Then I get it, if someone doesn’t listen to reason, I shouldn’t bother trying."

Ning Youguang laughed heartily, "Yes, when someone doesn’t listen, talking is pointless."

Ning Youyu asked with a serious little face, "Is losing your temper like my sister useful?"

"It might be useful." Ning Youguang said, "Or it might not."

Ning Youyu fell back into contemplation, "Are there other ways? How can I make unreasonable people behave?"

"Sure." Ning Youguang said, "You should know their weaknesses and exploit them."

"Know their weaknesses and exploit them?" Ning Youyu’s innocent face was full of confusion.

"Don’t understand, huh?" Ning Youguang chuckled, "It’s okay if you don’t. Just keep it in mind for now. You’ll understand as you get older."

"Oh." Ning Youyu immediately stopped pondering and picked up his milk to offer it to Ning Youguang, "Thank you, sis, for helping me get justice. I’m not sad anymore."

He looked up, smiling at Ning Youguang with bright eyes, radiating happiness.

"You’re welcome." Ning Youguang picked up the milk he offered and drank half the cup in a gulp, "Did little Fish know I was thirsty after speaking so long?"

"Yes." The young Ning Youyu was already observant, "I heard you cough just now."

Ning Youguang laughed and took another sip of milk, "I’ll get you another cup later."

"No need." Ning Youyu shook his head, "I drank at school."

He picked up a fork to eat a blueberry, "Did they agree to take responsibility?"

"Of course. When has your sister ever failed?" Ning Youguang smiled proudly, "They’ll give you a new iPad by Monday, and your classmate will apologize in person."

"Yay!" Ning Youyu jumped off his chair and shook his thumbs ecstatically at Ning Youguang, "Sis, you’re awesome!"

"You’re welcome, you’re welcome. It’s natural for a sister to protect her brother." Ning Youguang waved her hand, "I’m just fulfilling my sisterly duty."

...

Approaching dinner time.

Ning Youguang asked Ning Youyu, who was diligently doing his homework at the table, "Brother Wangyue will be home late tonight, so it’s just us for dinner. Would you like to eat out or have me cook?"

"You cook." Ning Youyu raised his little head.

"Then I have to warn you, it might not taste very good." Ning Youguang chose to be upfront about her cooking skills.
