DAVM Chapter 81.1

Si Tian looked at Ji Zhile’s big bright eyes, looking at her expectantly.

As an adult, Si Tian did not think that the hide-and-seek game was any fun, but she still nodded: “Okay.”

Ji Zhile has been so good lately, so let’s take it as a reward for Ji Zhile.

Sure enough, when Ji Zhile heard this, he smiled so much that his eyes turned into crescent moons: “Mom is the best. I love Mom the most!”

The tone was exciting and full of emotion.

Si Tian knows that Ji Zhile is like this. When he is unhappy, he hates you the most, and when he is happy, he loves you the most. Anyway, he has to finish all the good and bad things by himself.

However, Si Tian was quite impressed by his kind words, so she accepted them all.

Ji Zhile poked his head out to look at Ji Ningyi, tilted his head, and asked, “Brother, do you want to play with us?”

Since Si Tian participated, Ji Ningyi of course nodded: “Yes.”

Ji Zhile said very deliberately: “Last time, I asked Brother to play with me, but you didn’t even play with me.”

He knew that his brother’s favorite person was not him, but their mother.

But Ji Zhile did not try to identify who his favorite person was. He was a child with very double standards.

Ji Ningyi still remembered the last time Zhile invited him to play together. He refused because it was not fun for the two of them, so he went to paint by himself. He wanted to give the painting to his mother before she went to work.

Ji Ningyi did not know that Ji Zhile held grudges like this, but he asked with a good temper: “So, Zhile, can I play with you?”

Si Tian said, “Zhile, you can’t bully your brother.”

Ji Zhile said, “I didn’t bully him.”

“It’s okay if Brother wants to come. But in the first game, Brother has to find us.”

Ji Ningyi said, “Okay.”

After returning home, Ji Ningyi put down his schoolbag. The first thing he did was wash his hands and pour water for Si Tian.

“Mom, here you are.”

Si Tian drank the warm water offered by her eldest son, praised, and thanked him: “Thank you, Ningyi.”

Then, she put the cup on the coffee table. Usually, at this time, Ji Zhile would rush to fill up the water she drank and then imitate Ji Ningyi and serve it to her.

Ji Zhile wasn’t very good at flattering people at first. He could only impress people with sweet words. The only few skills he had learned were from Ji Ningyi.

But today, Si Tian’s cup had been on the coffee table for a while, but Ji Zhile did not do anything. Si Tian did not ask Ji Zhile to fetch water for her, but she just felt a little strange.

She turned her head and saw Ji Zhile taking out the remote control and turning on the TV. Then, he turned to the Peppa Pig cartoon. He watched it with relish, imitating Peppa Pig’s movements in it and giggling from time to time.

Si Tian was taken aback.

Why did Ji Zhile change so much today?

“Zhile.”

Ji Zhile quickly turned his head and glanced at her: “What’s the matter, Mom?”

Si Tian asked tactfully, “Zhile, do you want some water?”

Ji Zhile immediately asked: “Can I drink Coke? There are still some in the refrigerator. Can Mom pour it for me?”

Si Tian finally understood what this strange thing was. Ji Zhile was like a person who had achieved his goal after showing his courtesy, but his true colors were revealed in a very short period of time.

But what is Ji Zhile’s purpose? Si Tian searched her memory and found that she seemed to have agreed to Ji Zhile to play hide and seek today.

Is it this one? Si Tian decided to test it out. She coughed lightly, attracting Ji Zhile’s attention, and then asked leisurely: “Does Zhile really want to play hide-and-seek?”

Ji Zhile blinked his eyelashes lightly, turned his head to look at Si Tian, ​​hummed twice, and then nodded quickly.

“Then, how long do you want to play?”

Ji Zhile said: “A long time! It will take a long time!”

Si Tian did not say anything, but Ji Zhile asked very intelligently at this time: “Thank you for your hard work, Mom. I’ll help Mom get the water.”

After finishing speaking, he climbed off the sofa, held the cup in both hands, and ran to get the water. His small steps were very fast, and he stepped on the floor with a muffled sound.
