'Sigh, what a love-starved child!'
Zhao Nuanyue nodded repeatedly, stood up, and patted her brother's head. "You're my brother, and she's my sister. I care for her, but I care for you even more."
Zhao Nuanyang's face turned a little red. He glanced at the Little Red Carp out of the corner of his eye, feeling a bit embarrassed. In a low voice, he said, "Sis, don't pat my head anymore. I'm a grown-up now."
"Big brother is a grown-up, big brother is shy," the Little Red Carp said with a grin, her voice sweet and childlike.
Being teased by a little baby made Zhao Nuanyang even more embarrassed.
"You guys should get some rest too." Zhao Nuanyang fled in disarray. Especially under the gaze of the Little Red Carp's big, dark eyes, he felt like he couldn't even compare to a child.
Zhao Nuanyue smiled and said, "Okay, you go to bed first. I'll be going to sleep soon too."
Before leaving, Zhao Nuanyang reached out and gently pinched the Little Red Carp's cheek, a gesture of affection.
