When Fresh Snow didn’t respond, Wang Zikai said vehemently, “None of you know Gao Yang. I know him!”
“Really?” Fresh Snow blinked.
“Of course!” Wang Zikai was emphatic. “He’s smart and cares deeply, but in some way, he’s not that bright.”
“He’s dense?” Fresh Snow tried to decipher Wang Zikai’s words.
"Yeah, he's dense!" Wang Zikai's eyes lit up with approval. "Not bad. Your vocabulary is getting expansive."
Fresh Snow smiled, remembering her sister's words: The second best way to grow up is to watch a thousand movies, and the best way is to fall for someone.
She'd done both, but still wasn't sure if she'd grown up yet.
Wang Zikai scratched his head, wrestling with words—vocabulary had never been his strong suit. "Gao Yang's really dense about certain things and can't figure himself out. If you wait for him to realize it on his own, it'll be the next century!"
Fresh Snow sank into contemplation.
"I'm certain that Gao Yang cares about you!" Wang Zikai pressed on.
After a pause, Fresh Snow looked up. "Why?"
"You don't know this, but back in Naldives, he came to me about you." Pride colored Wang Zikai's voice at being trusted with such a secret. "He was really struggling because he wanted to save you so badly. He spent ages wondering if he should let you eat him."
He leaned forward, eyes intense. "Think about it. How long had you known each other then? You weren't family or anything. If he didn't like you, would he have considered giving his life to save you? He's not a psycho!"
...
When Gao Yang surfaced from his shallow sleep at nine, morning sunlight flooded the living room.
The first day of Lunar New Year had arrived with perfect weather.
Wang Zikai and Fresh Snow sat across from him, dressed in their finest for an outing. Though clearly waiting for him to wake, they performed an elaborate show of casual conversation.
"The weather's nice, Fresh Snow," Wang Zikai announced.
"Yeah, yeah." Fresh Snow nodded with excessive enthusiasm.
"On a nice day like this, we should go outside. It's said that sunlight not only helps you sleep and prevents depression, but also makes you smarter!"
"Yeah, yeah." Fresh Snow bobbed her head again.
Gao Yang snorted softly. They reminded him of an eager cat and dog vying for attention.
He lifted his head slightly. "An outing's not a bad idea, but I need a bath first. And to get changed. It's such a hassle..."
"I'll pick your clothes!" Wang Zikai vaulted over the sofa like a hurdle, racing toward the first-floor walk-in closet. "Trust my taste. You're gonna be second only to one in terms of handsomeness!"
"I—I'll draw your bath!" Fresh Snow scrambled up, refusing to be outdone, and darted toward the bathroom.
Gao Yang sank deeper into the sofa and snorted again, this time with undisguised satisfaction.
Who's the most valued member of the family? I am.
