After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 638

Chapter 638: Some Intelligence, but Not Much
With determination, Zhouzhou and Huo Ji’an exchanged a glance and ran out hand in hand.

They were going to tan themselves!

And they were going to become skilled hackers!

Qin Feng, feeling a headache coming on, hurriedly reached out to grab Zhouzhou, but she ran so fast that he ended up grasping at thin air.

Afraid she would actually get tanned, he immediately chased after her, calling out, “Zhouzhou, come back! Being a hacker isn’t about tanning like this.”

What? That’s not the way to do it? Clearly, they weren’t dark enough yet!

Zhouzhou pulled Huo Ji’an along even faster.

“Little Skinny Pole, while the weather’s still warm, let’s soak up some more sun. Once autumn comes, we’ll have to wait until next year to be hackers.”

Exactly!

Hearing this, Huo Ji’an became anxious, immediately spreading out his hands and rolling up his sleeves to expose his arms fully.

They had to get thoroughly tanned, like pieces of charcoal.

Zhouzhou did the same.

Regretting that she had learned too late, wishing she had refused when her father tried to apply sunscreen on her earlier!

Now that she was one step behind, all she could do was darken her skin as much as possible.

When Qin Feng found them, the two kids were stretched out, almost as if they could hang themselves up with a rope and dry out like salted fish.

It was both amusing and exasperating.

Where did they come up with all these strange ideas?

Their thought processes were truly miraculous.

Approaching them, Qin Feng was about to advise them, but Zhouzhou enthusiastically invited him, “Seventh Brother, come join us! Let’s be hackers together.”

Qin Feng: “…”

Could he refuse?

Met with their earnest gazes, knowing he couldn’t dissuade them, Qin Feng could only give up and stand by, accompanying them.

It wasn’t until the bell for class rang that they finally relented.

But as soon as class ended, they rushed out again, not wanting to miss a single ray of sunshine.

Qin Feng watched them and sighed heavily.

Qin Bei, curious, asked, “What’s Zhouzhou doing?”

“Trying to get tanned to become a hacker.”

What?

Getting tanned makes you a hacker?

Qin Bei’s eyes lit up. Why hadn’t anyone told him this secret before!

Without a second thought, he ran over and stood beside Zhouzhou, mimicking their actions of soaking up the sunlight, while teasing her, “Zhouzhou, you’re not being fair! You want to be a hacker and didn’t even tell me.”

He loved playing games, and being a hacker was his dream.

So cool.

He’d be the king of the online world!

Qin Feng: “…”

One foolish move after another.

Zhouzhou’s ignorant facade wasn’t completely gone yet.

He sighed, too lazy to advise them further, and found a cool spot to sit, resting his chin on his hand as he watched them.

Zhouzhou and the others were enthusiastically tanning themselves.

And Zhouzhou couldn’t help but envision what she would look like as a hacker in the future.

Just thinking about it made her happy.

After a few days of tanning, the group had formed a strong “hacker friendship” and made plans to visit Zhouzhou’s company together on the weekend.

During breakfast on Saturday, Grandma Qin glanced at Qin Bei and casually remarked, “Have you been working in the coal mine? Why are you so dark?”

Dark?

Did that mean he was close to becoming a hacker!

Qin Bei was overjoyed.

Zhouzhou quickly leaned over and asked, “Grandma, what about me? Did I get tanned?”

Grandma Qin looked and instantly smiled, “No, you’re still the fairest, Zhouzhou.”

But upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s face fell.

She had been tanning for days, so why wasn’t it working?

Qin Bei glanced at her triumphantly.

Heh, being a hacker must require talent.

As talented as he was!

Zhouzhou looked enviously at Qin Bei, who was now surrounded by a circle of tan, and clenched her fists.

No, she had to tan even more than her brother!

Zhouzhou left for school early every day and returned late, so Grandma Qin had never seen her tanning. Naturally, she didn’t know what her cute and innocent granddaughter was thinking.

Otherwise, Qin Bei would have been in big trouble.

It was all his fault for leading Zhouzhou astray.

After breakfast, Qin Bei took Zhouzhou outside.

They had already informed Qin Lie about their plans for today.

Qin Lie didn’t say much and acted as their chauffeur, driving the two kids to the company.

As they arrived at the entrance, another car pulled up.

Huo Ji’an jumped out and waved enthusiastically at Zhouzhou, “Chubby Girl!”

“Little Skinny Pole!” Zhouzhou ran over, looking delighted.

Qin Lie frowned slightly as he watched the two holding hands, then glanced disapprovingly at Huo Ji’an. Suddenly, his eyebrows lifted.

Where did this Little Charcoal come from? How did he get so dark in just a few days?

But Zhouzhou was green with envy.

Both Sixth Brother and Little Skinny Pole had gotten tanned, why hadn’t she?

Did that mean she didn’t have the talent to be a hacker?

No, Eldest Senior Brother said, “As you sow, so shall you reap.”

She would tan more than them in the future and definitely get darker!

Thinking this, Zhouzhou spurred herself on.

Unaware of the children’s ambitious aspirations, Qin Lie stepped forward and said, “Let’s go inside.”

“Later is fine too.” Zhouzhou looked reluctantly at the bright sun outside.

Qin Lie glanced at her in confusion, unable to understand the chubby little girl’s train of thought.

Zhouzhou had tanned for a while, but it was still early and the temperature hadn’t risen enough for tanning to be effective.

She shook her head regretfully, “Let’s go, Dad.”

Odd.

But Qin Lie didn’t dwell on it and led Zhouzhou inside.

This company was originally Zhouzhou’s, but since little chubby girl was now the absentee boss, Qin Lie was managing it on her behalf, with the intention of returning it to her in the future.

So, in Qin Lie’s plans, he wanted Zhouzhou to learn some relevant knowledge.

Originally, he had planned to teach her after she entered university, but since she was now interested, he had no objections.

“Zhouzhou, what would you like to learn about first?”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou didn’t hesitate, “Being a hacker!”

At her words, Qin Lie raised an eyebrow slightly.

Remembering how Zhouzhou had been reading that book every day, he understood.

“Then I’ll arrange for some people to teach you?”

The gaming company had no shortage of IT staff.

Zhouzhou nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes!”

Huo Ji’an and Qin Bei also looked expectant.

After taking them to the office first, Qin Lie went out to find someone.

As soon as he left, Qin Bei asked curiously, “Zhouzhou, do you think they’re also very dark?”

“Definitely!” Zhouzhou nodded confidently. “After all, they’re hackers.”

Indeed.

Huo Ji’an nodded.

Suddenly, he remembered something. His former father’s company was similar to Zhouzhou’s.

But he wasn’t dark, so his hacking skills probably weren’t great either.

Thinking of this, he smirked, understanding for the first time why his former father often worked overtime.

If your skills aren’t up to par, you have to rely on sheer time spent.

Thinking of this, Zhouzhou remembered something too. She looked around and saw sunlight streaming in through the French windows. She immediately ran over and stretched out her arms.

Any bit of sunlight would help darken her skin. She couldn’t miss out.

Seeing this, Qin Bei and Huo Ji’an ran over too.

When Qin Lie came in, he saw this scene.

The kids were standing by the window, their arms spread wide, as if absorbing sunlight.

Hmm, getting some sun was good. It’s like photosynthesis.

They were all like little sunflowers.
