“I don’t have a cure, but I can try curing you . But it might take a rather long time…”
“How long?” Puzzled, Pudding looked at him .
“Maybe for the rest of my life . ”
Pudding felt her heart skip a beat, it was a strange feeling .
It was quite funny hearing such a young child talk about the rest of his life .
However, Pudding got the feeling that Wei Yunchu wasn’t joking .
Wei Yunchu’s parents were no less intelligent than Pudding’s parents .
With Wei Liao and Jiang Xiaowei’s intelligence, they birthed a good son .
Pudding and Wei Yunchu’s emotional intelligences were far more developed than Little Bean and Gao Boyuan .
In this group of children, the most child-like one was Gao Boyuan . He was more pure .
Although Pudding and Wei Yunchu were regarded as little geniuses, their parents weren’t really happy about it .
There was once when the two families had a gathering where Huo Mian said that she didn’t want her daughter to mature too early .
When a child is young, they should do child-like things .
Pudding came into contact with society too early, trading stocks and managing money .
That gave her a big mental burden, preventing her from being a naive happy child .
“Ahem…” Pudding felt a little awkward and changed the conversation .
“How’s Auntie Xiaowei?”
“My mom’s doing great… She’s a workaholic on the same level as Aunt Huo Mian, haha . ”
“What about your aunt?”
“She’s been great after remarrying . Grandpa and Dad seem to be more open to Uncle Shen now… Although they still hold it against him, they stopped making passive aggressive comments . ”
“Our conversations are so weird, ha . We’re not like little kids at all . ” Realizing the situation, Pudding found it funny .
“Pudding, you’ve seemed down for the past two days, and you’ve been quiet on Wechat . Is it because…”
When Wei Yunchu said that, he didn’t dare to continue and seemed to be observing Pudding’s face .
“What?” Pudding wasn’t sure what Wei Yunchu meant .
“Aunt Mian’s baby… I overheard my parents talking about it… Is it because you lost your brother? Even though I don’t know why, it’s bad news . ”
“It’s impacted our family for sure, but that’s not why… I just…”
Pudding thought about it but didn’t know how to say it .
“Yunchu, if someone looked exactly like your mom, with the same personality, voice, and mannerisms, would you be able to tell that she’s pretending to be your mom?”
“This… To be honest, I don’t know how to answer . That question came out of nowhere and caught me off guard . I think that I won’t be able to tell at first, but I’ll feel it as time goes on . After all, I know the little details in her life . ”
“Mhm . ”
“Why? Why ask that out of nowhere?”
Wei Yunchu thought that Pudding was behaving strangely; all of their conversation topics were morbid .
“Nothing, I’ve been watching too much sci-fi . ”
“Come hang out at my house this weekend . My dad’s artist friend is coming over, and I want to learn from him . ”
“No, thank you . I have plans with Handsome Su, we’re going to Grandpa Su’s house for dinner . ”
“Okay, next time . ”
“Okay . ”
Seeing that it was almost time, Wei Yunchu quietly got up and returned to his classroom .
Watching the clouds in a daze, Pudding asked, “Mom, should I keep trusting you? Is that really you?”
