Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

—The next day

Chen Bingzhong had just arrived home and hadn't even had time to put his things down when Chen Bingwen cornered him in his room.

"What's wrong?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

Chen Bingwen peeked out the doorway again to make sure his parents were in the yard and hadn't come inside. They hated him gossiping, and if they saw him, they'd scold him again.

Especially since his brother is about to take the high school entrance exam and has skipped a grade, if he tries to chat with him at this time, he's definitely doomed.

"I have something to tell you..." he said exaggeratedly, while occasionally glancing at his parents' reactions.

His anger was quite evident in his words; he clearly hoped that Chen Bingzhong could give him some advice on how to deal with Chen Bao.

Every time Chen Bingwen saw him, he acted as if he didn't exist, which infuriated Chen Bao, who felt that Chen Bingwen should kneel down and call him "uncle".

Bah! What a load of rubbish! He only has one uncle, Chen Xuyan, and has absolutely nothing to do with this good-for-nothing Chen Bao.

"Brother, you have to think of something." Chen Bingwen said dejectedly.

"My parents told me not to do anything reckless, isn't that because they think I'm not good enough? That's because they don't know my abilities!"

Chen Bingzhong didn't speak, but he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes. "Wait a little longer. I have a way to deal with him so he won't even be able to cry."

What difficulty could he possibly have with this little thing?

Chen Bingwen blinked. "Really?"

His brother is someone who never brags or makes empty boasts. This time, Chen Bao is really going to be in trouble!

This is truly a joyous occasion.

Chen Bingzhong nodded, then continued to pile his books and some documents on the table. These were all collected and sent back by Chen Xuyan, and they were very useful to him.

He couldn't find such good materials when he competed in the provincial competition, and the questions in them were also very difficult.

"Then I'll be waiting for your good news." Chen Bingwen grinned and put his arm around his neck. After teasing him for a while, he prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Chen Bingzhong stopped him again.

"What's wrong, brother?" he asked, puzzled.

"Bring your homework over here and do it here." That's how Chen Bingzhong assigned him his task.

"Oh? I was planning to write it in a few days!"

Chen Bingzhong looked distrustful. "A few days is a few days, so hurry up and finish writing while I'm at home. Don't dawdle."

His words left no room for argument, so Chen Bingwen had no choice but to go back to his room to get his homework.

Seeing that he had been dawdling for a long time and had not come over, Chen Bingzhong had no choice but to ask Xu Xiaomo to "invite" Chen Bingwen over on his behalf.

Xu Xiaomo immediately put down the broom in her hand. "Chen Bingwen! Does it take this long to get a book? Do I have to come and fetch you myself?! I think you're asking for a beating!"

"If you don't finish your homework this week, you'll see what I do to you!"

"I'm here, I just have a lot of stuff..."

On the other side, on the way home.

Chen Xuyan drove Chen Weizhen, bumping and swaying along the way, stopping and starting, until they were finally almost home.

"Are we there, Dad?" Chen Weizhen stood up from the back seat of the car, holding her doll.

"Almost there, we've reached Xi County. We'll be home in another half hour, but the snow is a bit heavy, so I'll have to drive slowly." Chen Xuyan had already calculated the time.

Chen Weizhen happily sat back in the back seat and even hummed a song while crossing her little feet.

She misses her two older brothers, as well as her uncle and aunt.

Although they haven't seen each other for three years, she calls them every week. It wasn't as frequent before, but her uncle installed a phone line at home last year.

Chen Runming had shoveled the snow away from the doorway again and again.

"The snow just won't stop falling, I'm really worried about their journey."

Xu Xiaomo wasn't much better off. "They should be back soon, don't worry too much."

It had been half a month since the last time Chen Xuyan and the others called. They had called back, but the nanny answered and said they had already left.

Only then did they realize that Chen Xuyan had driven back by himself.

As Chen Bingwen recited his lessons, he kept looking outside, his room having a window that faced the road that led in.

"They're back?" He watched uncertainly as a black car drove closer and closer.

It wasn't until the car turned on its headlights and honked its horn that he realized the car really belonged to his second uncle!

"Mother! Eldest brother! Second uncle is back?!" The book was flung away by him and disappeared into who-knows-where.

Upon hearing this, members of the Chen family also came out.

“He’s really back. Look at this car, so impressive…” Chen Runming was still grinning foolishly.

After meal.

Xu Xiaomo hugged Chen Weizhen and kissed her for a long time. "Doctors in big cities are really good at treating patients. Our little Weizhen speaks so fluently now, she's quite articulate."

Hearing this, Chen Weizhen buried her head in her arms, feeling very embarrassed.

“Weizhen.” Chen Bingzhong extended his hand to Chen Weizhen.

Chen Weizhen got out of Xu Xiaomo's arms and asked Chen Bingzhong to hold her.

Everyone who saw this laughed, except for Chen Bingwen.

Chen Bingwen looked on with a hint of amusement. "Big brother treats her the best, of course she likes big brother!"

"My older brother only ever criticizes me."

"Who told you to be so unclean before? Don't you know your older brother is the most particular?" Xu Xiaomo looked at him with disgust, as if recalling his unkempt appearance in the past.

"I... I was too young to know anything about clean or unclean. I'm fine now, aren't I? My older brother has never even held me." Chen Bingwen felt that his mother didn't respect him at all.

Chen Weizhen tugged at his sleeve again, "Big brother, hug me too."

"Look how much your sister dotes on you! And you, as her older brother, are jealous of her." Chen Runming couldn't bear to look at her.

Chen Bingwen was a little embarrassed and quickly waved his hand, "I was just joking. Who wants my brother to carry me? I'm a grown man, not a little kid like her."

Unexpectedly, Chen Bingzhong hugged the two children tightly.

Chen Bingwen's face instantly turned bright red when he was hugged; his older brother had actually hugged him.

His mind was filled with all sorts of chaotic thoughts about how he should treat his brother and Chen Weizhen well in the future.

The three children quickly started playing together again, and Chen Bingwen even took out his favorite things for Chen Weizhen to play with.

"Look, it's healed pretty quickly." Xu Xiaomo shook her head, completely baffled by the child's emotions.

“Of course, they are related by blood.” Chen Runming was very happy.

He then turned to look at Chen Xuyan, "How are you doing out there?"

"How much does this car cost? It doesn't look cheap at all, and it's much better than the car our boss was looking at."

"I heard that S City is undergoing development, and many places have been demolished and people have made a fortune. Our boss saw the news and is very envious..."

His questions came one after another.
