Hutou, holding a high school textbook, said, "Uncle, I know that. We're not kids anymore."
Besides, they've seen a lot. It's just the younger siblings who are easily surprised.
Zhuang Zhixi asked, "How's your studying going?"
Hutou's head instantly drooped. He was set to take the college entrance exam this summer, and just thinking about it made him feel overwhelmed. "I've been studying hard," he sighed.
But how much he'd actually learned was anyone's guess.
He sighed again, wishing he were as smart as his sister.
Xiaoyanzi chimed in, "Brother, I believe you can do it."
Hutou: "..."
He didn't even believe in himself.
But the rest of the family had high expectations, which only added to his stress. He found himself envying Li Junjun and Li Weiwei, whose family placed less pressure on them.
