Hear My Heart: My World Falls into the River of Love

Chapter 64

When He Xiu came to He Mansion, He Chen was five years old. That day, it was as if something momentous had occurred. Aside from the vague memories of his mother's shrieks and tantrums or his father's icy facade, he could very clearly remember his father leading in that older brother.

He was very good-looking, more so than any child in their kindergarten. He stood to the side silently the whole time, as if what was happening in the room had nothing to do with him. He did, however, look coldly at their father.

He Chen curiously stepped closer to him and called out with a childish voice, "Gege?"

His father had just introduced the boy and had said this was his older brother, He Xiu.

He Xiu glanced at him before looking away, his faintly knitted brows betraying his disgust.

At the time, He Chen did not understand though.

At his kindergarten, He Chen had a classmate called...well, he forgot his name a long time ago. For the time being, his name is Da Zhu, okay? Da Zhu had an older brother, but he was only older by a few minutes. The two of them were in the same class and even sat together. Every time Da Zhu charged into a disaster at the kindergarten, his older brother shouldered the burden on his behalf. If the teacher assigned homework that he had not finished, he would grab his older brother's homework and put his name on it instead.

Da Zhu liked to eat small pastries at kindergarten, especially fruit cake, and only picked out the fruit to eat. If he had finished eating but wasn't satisfied, he would steal from his older brother. Every time, his older brother was only able to eat the leftover dry, bland cake.

He Chen felt that Da Zhu was too much. If it was him, he would have already beaten up Da Zhu. Da Zhu's older brother, however, never scolded him and was always good to him. Therefore, He Chen held hidden envy in his heart. Having an older brother was really good; he also wanted an older brother like this.

He didn't expected the heavens to have truly heard his birthday wish and actually give him an older brother! Moreover, this older brother was better looking than Da Zhu's older brother by tenfold! No, a hundredfold!

The day after He Xiu arrived, he resolved to bring He Xiu with him to kindergarten.

He Jing Long heard his thoughts and did not know whether to laugh or cry as he explained to him, "Silly Chen'er, gege is two years older than you. He cannot go to kindergarten. He'll be going to primary school."

Primary school, He Chen had heard these words from his kindergarten teacher, so he raised his hand and said, "Then I will go to primary school too." Kindergarten or primary school, it did not matter; it was okay as long as he could go to school together with He Xiu.

He Jing Long overruled him again, "You still haven't graduated from kindergarten. No primary school wants you."

Hearing that no primary school wanted him, He Chen felt wronged quickly. "I don't care. I will go to school with gege. Da Zhu goes to school with his gege."

He Jing Long knew He Chen did not clearly understood this issue and could only promise him, "After Chen'er graduates kindergarten next year, father will send you to study at the same primary school as gege, okay?"

He Chen pondered for a moment before reluctantly agreeing, "That's okay. Pinky swear."

He Jing Long beamed and hooked his pinky finger.

He Xiu had only been with them for a couple days, yet He Jing Long and Zhao Ying Fang's relationship had already become very strained. The two adults, however, did not reveal this in front of He Chen, and He Chen, who was obsessed with his gege, also did not know that his older brother had been sent to the hospital for a paternity test.
