Chapter 6: Delivery Arrives!
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The next day, at 6:30 in the morning, Chen Yuโs eyes rolled open. He picked up his phone, took a glance at the time, and sat up, rubbing his stiff cheeks. ๐ง๐๐ฒ๐we๐noัต๐l.๐o๐ฎ
โTwo and a half more hours to go....
โI canโt wait anymore!โ
It had been a restless night for Chen Yu.
He had been consumed by excitement and nervousness the entire night. Chen Yu tossed and turned around his bed for about eight hours, but sleep never found him despite doing so.
Not wanting to stay on his bed, Chen Yu changed into a new set of clothes and went out of his room to wash up. He walked to the living room and sat down in front of the couch next to Chen Erke, who was deep asleep. He stared out of the window at the scenery blankly.
It was Sunday today, thus Chen Yuโs younger sisters didnโt need to wake up for school, and Mrs. Chen didnโt need to make breakfast in the early morning either.
Other than Chen Erkeโs even breathing, the living room was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
In the stillness, Chen Yu was at a loss about what to do for a short moment.
Creak....
About ten minutes later, the door to the master bedroom opened up. Mrs. Chen walked out of the room, yawning. She looked slightly shocked when she saw Chen Yu. โWhy are you up so early?โ
โBecause I woke up.โ
โDid you game overnight?โ Mrs. Chen questioned doubtfully, taking a look at Chen Yuโs haggard face.
Chen Yu: โ...โ
โIโll go and make breakfast. Go wake Eldest and Second Eldest up and have them wash up.โ
โOkay.โ
Nodding, Chen Yu turned to Chen Erke next to him, giving her a few pushes. โWake up, pig.โ
โHuh?โ Chen Erke looked up in a daze and stared at Chen Yu with bleary eyes. She then pulled the blanket over her head, hiding herself under it.
โHey! Get up!โ Chen Yu shook her harder.
There was no response from Chen Erke.
โThen you have no rights to blame me.โ
Lifting up a corner of the blanket, Chen Yu took off one of his socks and threw it in. He then covered the blanket tightly.
Three.
Two.
One.
โAhhhhhhh!โ
All of a sudden, the blanket was kicked off from the inside. Chen Erke struggled off the couch, catching her breath. Within no time, she was fully awake.
โTime for breakfast.โ
Calmly, Chen Yu took his sock and put it on. โGo wash up,โ he said, ruffling Chen Erkeโs hair.
โChen Yu! Youโre disgusting!โ
โSo-so.โ
Chen Erke pinched her nose, shouting for Mrs. Chen unhappily. โMommy! My brother is bullying me!โ
โQuiet! Your younger sister is still sleeping! Go and wash up!โ Mrs. Chen chided, coming out of the kitchen with a spatula.
Chen Erke pouted, feeling wronged.
โGo and wash up.โ
Chen Yu stood up and pulled Chen Erke into the washroom. He turned on the tap, splashing water onto her face. โWash your face!โ
Seeing that Chen Erke was doing as told, Chen Yu walked out of the washroom and stopped right outside Chen Yikeโs room. He was about to push the door open when he remembered the painful consequences of doing that, so he chose to knock on her door instead.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
โEldest, wake up! Itโs breakfast time!โ Chen Yu yelled.
No responses came from the room.
โWake up! ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ๐๐๐๐v๐๐.c๐m
โWake up for breakfast~
โLittle sister! Breakfast time!
โHurry u-โ
โShut up!โ Chen Yikeโs furious shout suddenly came from inside the room.
Jumping in fright, Chen Yu quickly retreated a meter backward.
Thirty seconds later, a half-awake Chen Yike came out of the room. Thud. She kicked Chen Yu in his calf before making her way to the washroom, leaving a pale Chen Yu crouching down slowly, holding his calf in extreme pain.
Twenty minutes later, the entire Chen family sat around the dining table orderly to have breakfast.
Chen Sanke had just woken up. She ate her porridge sleepily, forgetting to swallow it down, before falling asleep while having her food.
Mr. Chen had not washed up. There was still dry stuff on the corner of his eyes.
Mrs. Chen looked exhausted.
Chen Yu looked sleepy as if he had too much fun with R18 stuff the night before.
As for Chen Yike and Chen Erke, they were the most energetic pair in the Chen family. At lightning speed, they emptied their plates.
โChen Yu,โ Mrs. Chen yawned and turned to him. โSend Second Eldest to her tuition class later. Iโm going to pay the electricity bills later in the afternoon.โ
Chen Yu was slightly taken aback. โBut I have something going on in the afternoon too!โ he answered immediately.
He had to wait for the arrival of his first review product!
โIโm going to pay the electricity bills! Which is more important?โ Mrs. Chen replied, unhappy with Chen Yuโs answer.
โCanโt you do that in the afternoon?โ
โI have work.โ
โWork?โ
โYes. Part-time job, to earn money for the household.โ
Hearing this, Mr. Chen, who had been eating silently, suddenly placed down his utensils and stood up. โIโm full,โ he said moodily.
โYou still have porridge left in your bowl,โ Mrs. Chen said with a frown.
โYou can have it, Iโm leaving for work.โ
After a simple wash up, Mr. Chen put on his jacket and left the house with his blue toolbox.
Chen Yike and Chen Erke exchanged glances silently in the living room.
There was nothing Mrs. Chen and Chen Yu could say either.
Chen Sanke was still deep in sleep.
The Chen family fell into silence once again, just like it was during dawn.
A few minutes later. โSend Second Eldest to class later.โ After finishing Mr. Chenโs leftover food, Mrs. Chen said in monotone.
โ...Okay.โ
After breakfast, Mrs. Chen cleared the table and left the house with her purse.
Chen Yu pulled out his mobile phone, taking a glance at the time. โEldest, Iโll bring Second Eldest to her class now, take care of Third Eldest,โ he instructed Chen Yike, who was studying in the living room.
โAlright.โ Chen Yike nodded. She put her book down, opening her mouth slightly, hesitating to speak her mind.
โWhat is it?โ Chen Yu asked.
โBrother...โ Chen Yike bit her lips. โMy class has an autumn trip two weeks later to Erlong Mountain. Itโs compulsory, and it will cost 320 RMB in total. I donโt know how to tell Mom about it.โ
At Chen Yikeโs side, Chen Erke perked up her ears.
โNevermind, Iโll pay for it.โ After a moment of silence, Chen Yu spoke, plastering a smile on his face.
โBrother... You have the money?โ
โOf course. Donโt I receive the most red packets every year? Take care of Third Eldest. Iโm sending Second Eldest now.โ
With that, Chen Yu took Chen Erkeโs hand and left the house together after putting on their shoes.
Twenty minutes later, he was standing outside the mental abacus learning center while holding on to Chen Erke. Seeing that the other kids were holding their drinks, realization dawned on Chen Yu. He gave himself a smack on the head.
โOh no! Second Eldest, I forgot your water bottle!โ
Chen Erke took a glance at the drinks in her classmatesโ hands secretly. โIโm not thirsty,โ she said, clutching the corner of her shirt with her left hand.
โIโll buy you something.โ
โBrother, Iโm not thirsty.โ
Ignoring Chen Erkeโs words, Chen Yu held on to Chen Erke and went into the mini-market that was next to her abacus learning center. He shoved a bottle of iced black tea into her hands.
โBrother! Iโm really not thirsty!โ Chen Erke put the iced lemon tea back onto the shelves, blinking at Chen Yu with her shiny bright eyes. โBig Sis still needs money for her school trip. Thereโs not enough to go around.โ
โTsk...โ Chen Yu took the bottle of lemon tea once again and ruffled her hair. โThatโs not something for you to worry about.โ
After paying, they left the mini-market. Chen Yu stood at the door and watched Chen Erke enter the class with the bottle of black tea in her hands. The smile plastered on his face faded, and he sighed before walking in the direction of the mall.
It was past 9 A.M already. The Transdimensional Marketing Companyโs delivery shouldโve long since arrived in his room. However, since he was out, he might as well buy some things he needed.
For instance, a mask to hide his face.
By the time Chen Yu arrived back home, it was already half past nine.
After greeting Chen Yike, he dashed into his room like a cat on hot bricks. As soon as he entered his room, he was welcomed by the sight of a huge box sitting on the floor.
โItโs here!โ
Chen Yu rubbed his hands excitedly and went to lock his door. He then tore off the exquisite wrapper of the box and opened the box.
