Chapter 1413 - 1415

"Morning." Gong Ruwen staggered around the room, half-awake.

She greeted everyone with "Good morning" continuously, and everyone was used to her half-asleep state.

At first, everyone was worried about Gong Ruini being able to move around with half-open eyes.

Luckily, Gong Ruini always performed well, even though it looked dangerous, she never bumped into anything, making people marvel at the wonder.

Gong Ruzhi sat on the stool, feeling aggrieved, especially after seeing Gong Ruini, his grievance grew.

"Sis." Gong Ruzhi said pitifully.

What’s wrong? Gong Ruini walked over to Gong Ruzhi, surprised to see her brother tearful.

What’s wrong? For his sister to ask such a question, it was too much, Gong Ruzhi could barely control his tears.

If there were tears before, it was a bit of pretending, but now he’s really going to cry.

"Well, you need to be careful. Big brother knows you hid from him that Xu Ran and I got our marriage certificate."

Gong Ruini said and felt all sorts of awkward, "I’m really sorry."

"I never expected things would turn out this way." Even though she apologized many times, it couldn’t cover up the sight of her brother being scolded by big brother or even their parents.

Crying, the sister apologized, but this reminder was late, "Big brother already reprimanded me earlier."

"Big brother came to my room early and pulled me up."

"At five thirty, he got me up and made me run a lap downstairs." Gong Ruzhi couldn’t remember the last time he got up so early and ran.

Overall, this morning’s ordeal really wore Gong Ruzhi out, "Sis, you don’t know, I almost fainted."

"I wrote code late into the night yesterday." Since Gong Tao and the others came to the United States, Gong Ruzhi couldn’t fly to the West Coast on weekends as planned, so he had to stay in New York.

But the tasks still needed completion, and unexpected, big brother caught him.

"No way." The punishment was truly terrifying, and Gong Ruini was stunned.

She knew big brother would teach Gong Ruzhi a lesson, but she didn’t expect him to use such a method.

She didn’t know how to comfort Gong Ruzhi.

"Don’t pity him, despite being young, he can’t just ignore his health."

Gong Ruwen saw Gong Ruzhi and Gong Ruini together and knew he was complaining.

Of course, he wasn’t afraid of Gong Ruzhi complaining, but the kid needed discipline, "He’s only been in the United States for a short time, yet his health is deteriorating."

"Couldn’t even manage to run a little."

"So young and already learned to stay up late." Gong Ruwen recalled Gong Ruzhi talking in his sleep when he went to call him in the morning.

Gong Ruwen was still angry, upset over the kid disregarding his dumpling of a body.

Stay up late? Gong Ruini knew Gong Ruzhi often played on the computer at night, it’s his job after all.

"Didn’t you promise me you wouldn’t stay up late?" Gong Ruini was surprised; she really hadn’t managed this well.

"Well, I..." Gong Ruzhi hung his head, unsure how to explain.

"Sometimes the inspiration hits, and I just focus on recording my thoughts, and then, before realizing, it’s already late."

"Sis, you know, sometimes inspiration really is fleeting." Gong Ruzhi knew at that moment, only Gong Ruini might save him.

As for the busy Zhao Xuran in the kitchen, Gong Ruzhi didn’t hope that this gentleman would save him.

Indeed, inspiration comes suddenly and disappears quickly, and Gong Ruini admitted as much. But how could she stand up for Gong Rui Zhi?

Didn’t she see big brother’s constant glare? If Gong Ruzhi had a hard time, wouldn’t hers be easy?

Only she had a protective charm at the moment; otherwise, big brother would not let her off, teaching her to consult with the family on big matters.

Even Sis ignored him, leaving Gong Ruzhi heartbroken.

"From now on, the computer can’t be in the study or Xiao Zhi’s room." Gong Ruwen didn’t listen to Gong Ruzhi’s so-called promise.

Didn’t you hear Ni Zi said he had promised, but what was the result? He continued staying up late.

The point is, this kid’s promise isn’t trustworthy. Since he couldn’t manage himself, another method was needed.

What, the computer can’t be in the study or his room, Gong Ruzhi really wondered where it would go.

Gong Ruini was curious too, "Then where should it go?"

Gong Ruwen thought for a moment, "In the living room, so when Xu Ran comes out at night to make you a snack, he’ll know."

In this regard, Gong Ruwen trusted Zhao Xuran. Previously, this guy didn’t manage Gong Ruzhi well enough; if Zhao Xuran paid more attention, how could he let Gong Ruzhi stay up late?

What, in the living room? Gong Ruzhi was stunned, "Isn’t it bad in the living room."

"What I do is still pretty important." Gong Ruzhi hesitated.

"You mean you think someone would steal your things?" This comment Gong Ruwen disliked, clearly revealing distrust.

Ah, Gong Ruzhi shouted in anger, "Is that what I meant?"

"Then what do you mean?" Gong Ruwen pursued.

"I mean if someone’s around, I, I just can’t write code." How could Gong Ruzhi say that with people around, he’d have no choice but to turn off the computer?

"Then don’t do coding anymore, I’ve heard offices are small nowadays, many people work in one big office."

"People coming and going, if you can’t contain this, no need to go to the West Coast."

"How could you get along well with strangers and can’t adapt to working in the living room at home?"

"Those people understand coding and can see if what you wrote is problematic, but us, who among us understands."

Even if they know the future world involves computers, what difference does it make? It’s not like they’ll study programming language.

Absolutely not, partly because it’s like a cryptic text, partly they don’t have time to study.

On the edge, Gong Ruini listened, really wanted to laugh, look, Gong Ruzhi with all his wits comes up with one crooked idea after another that’s constantly foiled.

"I understand." Gong Ruzhi had no choice but to agree.

But no worries, Mom and Dad are here for Sis’s wedding, they’re busy people, they won’t linger in the States.

Especially big brother’s busy, isn’t he busy opening supermarkets? Why hasn’t he gone back yet?

At this moment, Gong Rui Zhi eagerly anticipated big brother and them to go back sooner.

Once they leave, Gong Rui Zhi is confident he can persuade brother-in-law to let him take the computer back home.
