"Brother Lu Feng, you are here, too? I went to your rooms to not find you there. I was wondering where everyone went." It was Lu Lijun who had come with a small and beautiful wooden box in his hands.

"What happened?" asked Lu Feng in a soft tone that made the sisters jealous.

"I wanted to show everyone the gift I prepared for Grandpa and Grandma," Lu Lijun said, getting excited to show everyone what he had.

"Really? Where is it?" Lu Feng replied.

"See this." Lu Lijun opened the box and showed the contents to Lu Feng.

"Did you make it?" Lu Feng asked, observing the gift inside with admiration in his eyes.

"Yes! How is it?" the younger brother asked.

"They will like it," Lu Feng encouraged.

Lu Bao muttered, aggrieved, "Look at brother Lu Feng. He is smiling and treating the little devil nicely. Yet he treats us so poorly! Are we nobody? Don't we exist for him?" She turned to Lu Lian, her face filled with anger. "And look at the little monster taking up all the attention!" she said in a low voice. "Did he save a country in his last life?" She sobbed internally.

"I know, but what can we do?" Lu Lian too was quite angry after watching this show of affection between the two brothers.

"Brother Lu Qiang and Lu Feng are spoiling him. Why can't they spoil us a little? How can these two icebergs find so many words to say when it comes to Lu Lijun?" Indeed, she was filled with jealousy.

"Shhhh! They will hear us," Lu Lian hissed.

"Yes, it's really good," Lu Han said after taking a look at the gift, while his two sisters were busy cursing Lu Feng.

Lu Lijun looked at the door as if searching for something. Walking back towards the door, he peeked around and said in a light voice, "Brother Lu Qiang, what are you doing there? Come inside." Lu Qiang's cover was broken.

"I am fine here. Come out once you finish," Lu Qiang said, standing at the corridor.

"Please, elder brother, come inside. Everyone is here. Please!" Lu Lijun pleaded.

He instantly agreed, the plea melting his heart. He could never say no to his little brother.

It was surprising for the other to see Lu Qiang in the southern wing of the mansion, a place he didn't go unless absolutely necessary.

"What are you all doing in this room?" Lu Lijun asked.

"We called brother Lu Feng to help us pick a dress, but he is of no use," Lu Bao said with a sad expression.

"Then ask brother Lu Qiang." He turned his head up to look at his brother and asked, "You will help them, right?"

Lu Qiang hummed and looked at his sisters.

Lu Feng thanked the lord that he had been spared.

"Which color suits me the best?" Lu Bao asked, their expectations high this time. Both sisters looked at him without batting an eye.

"What's the difference?" he asked just as Lu Feng had.

"Look carefully," Lu Bao's eyes filled with anticipation.

"They are both pink," he observed, pinching the bridge of his nose and sighing heavily. The sisters were depressed by how both brothers had acted so similarly in the situation.

"I knew this would happen," Lu Han laughed.

"It's useless to have so many brothers." Lu Bao frowned. She turned her sight to the youngest brother and asked in a pleading tone, "Can you tell the difference?"

"Both are pink," he said with his usual innocent expression.

"There is no use." She gave out a deep sigh, looked at her brothers again and said, "Okay! Fine. Let's try this for the last time. We both liked the right one. What do you people think? Right one or left one?" This time she didn't have much excitement on her face.

Hearing this, Lu Han turned to the other direction, intent on looking the other way. Lu Feng and Lu Qian chose to avoid the sisters' gazes, and poor Lu Lijun was left staring at his brothers and sisters, wondering how he should react in this situation.

When Lu Bao saw their reactions, she got furious and said, "Tell me, or I won't come to the celebration." Her eyes were quite wet, and she looked like she was about to cry.

"The left one," both Lu Qiang and Lu Feng said in unison, wanting to run away from this situation.

"Really? A-are you sure?" Lu Bao's confusion was written all over her face as she looked at Lu Lian.

"Hundred percent!" The brothers said in unison.

" Innocent little Lu Lijun pointed at the left dress and quietly said, "If elder brothers like the left one, I choose the left one, too."

"O-okay," she said, but she still looked confused.

The four left the room.

"Our sisters are really something," Lu Han chuckled wholeheartedly. "But how did the two of you pick the same dress?"

Lu Qiang: "Always select the dress the girls do not pick."

Lu Feng: "She will surely wear the dress on the right."

Their faces were stoic.

"Cunning. You two are cunning," Lu Han teased.

"What does that mean, brother?" Lu Lijun asked.

Lu Han had a wife whom he knew well, and it could be said that he was a master at guessing the minds of the females. He sagely began to speak, "Our sisters liked the dress on the right. But our smart brothers picked the dress on the left. They had already made a choice, but as we didn't agree with them, they will think that we are clueless and ultimately wear the one they chose themselves."

"They got tricked." The boy clapped.

All four of them smiled and walked down to the living room.
