Getting Closer (Arc 2)

A few months had passed since that incident, and Feng Yongrui had already taken a few steps to get closer to his older brother.

Whenever Yin Longshen was at home, Feng Yongrui, who was now able to walk, would toddle over to his older brother's room. Feng Yongrui would stay with Yin Longshen and play near him.

If Zhao Baozhai was here, she would definitely be furious. However, she mostly stayed far away from the mansion. She was busy shopping, gathering with other socialites, and traveling.

This was a good thing for Feng Yongrui, because this meant he didn't have to worry about her interfering with his plans.

Of course, the nanny, who was loyal to Zhao Baozhai, would try to stop Feng Yongrui from playing with Yin Longshen. However, Feng Yongrui would kick up a fuss if he couldn't meet Yin Longshen.

Feng Yongrui would also run away from the nanny and insist on visiting Yin Longshen at least once a day. The nanny couldn't use force on him, and she was afraid he would hurt himself.

After a week or so, the nanny finally gave up on stopping him. Now, she allowed him to go and play with Yin Longshen.

The nanny would sit next to the two boys when they were playing together. She would scrutinize their every movement like a tiger that was ready to pounce on Yin Longshen if he dared to do anything wrong.

The first time Feng Yongrui went to his brother's room, Yin Longshen had been stunned. He never had a younger sibling, so he was at a loss on what to do.

Yin Longshen was also afraid that if he angered his little brother, accidentally hurt him, or made him cry, Zhao Baozhai and the nanny would be furious.

After all, no matter how young he was, Yin Longshen understood his position in this family. His younger brother was 'more important'.

And he subconsciously knew... that if he hurt his younger brother in any way, he would be considered as a threat, and Zhao Baozhai wouldn't let him go.

But Yin Longshen's worries were for naught, because he soon found out that his younger brother was very cute, very well-behaved, and didn't cry at all.

His younger brother would bring his toys over to his room, usually it was some building blocks, some Lego, or some toy cars.

His younger brother would always share with him and then play together. The most surprising thing was, his little brother would pay attention to what he liked and then give it to him.

For example, there was one incident when his little brother brought several toy cars to his room. At that time, Yin Longshen had noticed a beautiful sleek black car that stood out from the rest.

He really wanted to touch it, but the nanny was glaring at him from behind. Yin Longshen subconsciously understood it: he wasn't supposed to touch, let alone have, that toy.

But his little brother realized that he had been looking at it. Feng Yongrui handed the black car to him.

Yin Longshen had hesitated and glanced at the nanny, but since the one who gave him the car was the young master, the nanny couldn't say anything.

Yin Longshen understood that his younger brother was really kind and attentive.

There was another incident when Yin Longshen made a mistake. He and his little brother were racing their cars.

They would stand behind a certain line and then push their toy cars to see who would go faster and further. Yin Longshen made a mistake, and the toy car he was pushing crashed into Feng Yongrui's car.

Yin Longshen had been terrified, his face turning pale. He was afraid the nanny would be furious, but most of all, he was afraid his little brother would cry and refuse to play with him anymore.

To his surprise, his little brother was not angry at him and didn't even cry. He simply toddled over to him (Yin Longshen) and patted his hand as if to say, "It's okay. I know it was an accident. I don't blame you."

From that incident, Yin Longshen realized that his younger brother was a sweet and patient child. The only time his brother cried and kicked up a fuss was when he (Feng Yongrui) wasn't allowed to play with him (Yin Longshen).

In any case, after spending time with his little brother, Yin Longshen was glad. His little brother was cute and wasn't difficult to play with.

Also... in the entire Yin mansion, only his little brother, Yin Yongrui, was good to him and did not show any malice.

Therefore, Yin Longshen naturally came to cherish his little brother.

On Zhao Baozhai's side, she had heard of her son's antics from the nanny.

"Madam, we really can't do anything about it," the nanny said with her head lowered.

Currently, the nanny, Mo Xia, was talking to Zhao Baozhai. Zhao Baozhai sat leisurely on the sofa as another servant painted her nails.

"So... you're saying the Young Master fancies his older brother and often plays with him... My baby likes him so much that he kicks up a fuss if he can't meet his older brother at least once a day?" Zhao Baozhai asked.

The nanny nodded slowly. "That's right, Madam. This... I also have no idea why the Young Master likes him so much..."

Zhao Baozhai sighed. "Fine, let him do what he wants. As long as that kid doesn't try to snatch my son's position... As long as he knows his place, I guess having him as a playmate is still fine."

The nanny hesitated and spoke again. "Madam... These days, the Young Master wants to bring Yin Longshen into the nursery..."

"What?!" Zhao Baozhai cried angrily. The servant in charge of her nails flinched, but luckily, her nails were okay.

Zhao Baozhai shook her head angrily. "This can't do, what if Yin Longshen has evil intentions and tries to harm my son?!"

The nanny pursed her lips. She also didn't agree in letting Yin Longshen into the nursery room, but the Young Master was insistent... What could she do?

The nanny could only look at Zhao Baozhai helplessly. Anyway, she would make sure nothing happened to the Young Master.

Meanwhile, since the nanny was busy reporting to Zhao Baozhai, Feng Yongrui had brought Yin Longshen into the nursery. The servant in charge of taking care of him was helpless and couldn't stop him.

"Gege, play with me~" Feng Yongrui said sweetly.

Yin Longshen shook his head, but a smile had already formed on the corner of his lips. He sat down on the carpet and took out some building blocks.

"Didi, want to play with these?" he asked.

Feng Yongrui shook his head to say no. He was busy looking at the System's notification.

"Ding~ You have completed the Daily Mission 'bring the protagonist into the nursery. You have been awarded with 5 points."

Feng Yongrui nodded his head in satisfaction and turned to his Gege. This time, he was able to complete this Daily Mission thanks to his Gege~

After the two boys played for a while, Feng Yongrui grew tired and sleepy. Right now, he was almost one and a half years old, so he was able to talk and walk quite well.

He also saw that his relationship with the protagonist was getting better and better, so Feng Yongrui decided to start testing the waters. He wanted to know what exactly would make Yin Longshen blacken.

Feng Yongrui had already planned several "tester programs", as he called it. He would do a series of actions and check to see which action made the protagonist blacken.

The first one would be hurting the protagonist physically. Feng Yongrui wanted to know if the protagonist would blacken if he was hit by his dear younger brother.

If Yin Longshen blackened because of this, then Feng Yongrui would seriously consider pushing him down the stairs.

The second thing he would try to do was betraying his older brother. Feng Yongrui planned to break a vase and then accuse his older brother of being the culprit. By that time, his older brother was sure to get angry and feel betrayed, right?

The last method was getting hurt by himself. Feng Yongrui had planned to get hurt, either by falling down accidentally or something like that. When that happened, would Yin Longshen get angry at him?

Feng Yongrui had already planned these three actions inside his head. He would do all three actions and then compare the results.

Which action made the protagonist blacken? And, which action will make the protagonist's blackening value rise the most?

Based on the results, Feng Yongrui would determine his next course of action. He would think of the best and most efficient way to make the protagonist blacken.

A few days later, Feng Yongrui was playing building blocks, accompanied by Yin Longshen.

"Gege, build a tower! A tower!" Feng Yongrui cried excitedly.

Yin Longshen gave his younger brother an indulgent smile and arranged the blocks to create a large tower.

"Didi, here you go," Yin Longshen said happily.

Feng Yongrui looked at the tower in front of him. It looked good, but it seemed a bit too fragile.

Hmm... Time to go with Plan A!

***

Feng Yongrui: I want to play with my Gege.

Nanny: Young Master... what if he is scheming something?

Feng Yongrui: =_= Nanny, you don't know anything! A person with a blackening value of -19% can't possibly scheme anything, right?

How do you get closer to someone? By giving them good food? Chatting with them? Or by giving them gifts?
