Chapter 792: Ian Visiting the Dou Family To Pay a New Year’s Call

In the end, Dou Yue’er’s objection was invalid and the girls headed to Elder Dou’s study room.

His study room was very spacious. Instead of calling it a study room, it was better to describe it as a library. Other than a desk and a chair that was located within two meters of the entrance, the room was filled with bookshelves at the back. Each of the shelves was two meters high and four meters wide. More than a dozen bookshelves were arranged in two rows.

The moment Zi Yi went in, the first thing she did was head straight to the middle of the bookshelves and walk around. She then came out and said with a look of surprise, “Grandpa, you have so many orphaned works. I’ve never even heard of the name for some of the books here.”

Her eyes were particularly bright when she said this. Elder Dou said cheerfully, “If you want to read them, take your time. You can even take some home to read.”

“Grandpa! You’re being biased,” Dou Yue’er said sourly, “We wanted to borrow your books outside to read and you didn’t allow us. However, you are allowing cousin Yiyi to take her pick... Ouch! Grandpa, why did you hit me?”

Elder Dou purposely put on a stern expression. “How can you be the same?”

“How are we different? Cousin is your granddaughter and I’m also your granddaughter. We’re both your children’s children.”

Dou Xiangling and Dou Yurui could not hold back their laughter and burst out laughing.

Dou Yurui teased her. “How can you be the same? Cousin Yiyi is a study god. At best, you’re a high school student who is worried about whether or not you can even enroll in M.Uni.”

“Who’s worried about that! I can score enough points to get into M.Uni!” Dou Yue’er was very confident in her grades.

“Pft...” Dou Yurui expressed that she did not believe her.

Dou Yue’er was so angry that her cheeks were puffed out.

Dou Xiangling joined in and said, “How about this. Yue’er, if you’re not convinced, have a competition with Yiyi.”

Dou Yue’er immediately shook her head like a rattle. “No, no, no! I won’t compete with cousin Yiyi. She’s a study god and so how can I compare to her?!”

Elder Dou knocked on her head again. “Yiyi gained her skills by her own effort. You didn’t even try, how would you know that you can’t compare?”

Having said that, he pointed at the bookshelf in front. “The two of you shall compete to see who can finish reading a book faster than the other. Each of you will read one book, and as long as you can answer two of my questions after finishing, you’ll pass.”

“I don’t...”

“If you can answer the question, I’ll give you the same red packet that I gave to Yiyi.”

Dou Yurui’s eyes brightened. “Grandpa, you have to mean what you say!”

Dou Yurui and Dou Xiangling standing around them made eye contact and said, “If you can answer the questions Grandfather asks you, we’ll give you a red packet too.”

The money symbol seemed to be reflected in Dou Yue’er’s eyes.

When Zi Yi saw her, she asked, “Are you very short of money?”

“Yes.” Dou Yue’er nodded heavily. “I plan to start saving money for my graduation trip now.”

Zi Yi became interested. “Where do you want to travel to for your graduation?”

“I want to see a pyramid, search for the Mayan civilization, check out the Bermuda Triangle, and also...”

Dou Yue’er mentioned seven to eight places she wanted to go. Zi Yi was surprised, but she was supportive. “I’m interested in the ancient civilizations too. If I’m free in the future, let’s go together.”

“Really?” Dou Yue’er instantly felt as though she had met a bosom friend and wanted to pull her to the side and continue talking.

Just then, Dou Yurui reminded her. “Little sis, it’s not time to talk about this right now. You haven’t answered whether you are going to compete with Cousin Yiyi or not?

Dou Yue’er originally wanted to shake her head when Zi Yi said, “I saw several books on prehistoric civilization in Grandpa’s bookshelves. I want to take a look.”

Having said that, she went straight to the bookshelves.

Soon, she took out a few books and said to Dou Yue’er, “I’ll read these books, you’ll read this.”

“Can you finish reading that?” Dou Yue’er expressed her disbelief.

“Why not?”

Having said that, Zi Yi took a seat on a chair next to Elder Dou and started flipping through the book quickly.

Dou Yue’er looked at Zi Yi who was reading the book very quickly and said to Dou Xiangling and Dou Yurui, who had each taken a book from the shelf, “I feel that Cousin Yiyi is scamming me.”

Dou Yurui glanced at Zi Yi. She was also amazed at the speed at which Zi Yi was reading. However, she would not show that in front of Dou Yue’er. “How else could she become a study god? Little sis, you should learn from her.”

After that, she continued reading the book.

Dou Xiangling only took a glance in Zi Yi’s direction. She did not say anything as she lowered her head and started to read.

Dou Yue’er had never seen someone who read so quickly and so she decided to stare at Zi Yi instead.

Soon, Zi Yi had finished reading a book and sensed Dou Yue’er’s gaze. She gave her a smile before she turned to Elder Dou. “Grandpa, in this book...”

From the moment Zi Yi started discussing the book with Elder Dou, Dou Yue’er’s mouth formed an ‘O’ shape.

...

There were people coming over to the Dou Family to pay a New Year’s call in the afternoon. They were basically the professors and teachers staying in the same neighborhood.

Therefore, when Ian came knocking on the door with gifts in hand, there was nothing to be misunderstood. After all, he was considered a student of Dou Jingtong.

The moment Ian arrived, his mouth was extremely sweet and the gifts he brought were not very expensive either. However, everyone could feel his intentions.

After Ian handed out the gifts, he handed a large gift box to Dou Xiangling and said, “Xiangling, haven’t you always wanted the pigments produced by R Company? I got someone to make a trip down to the factory and bought a set.”

When Dou Xiangling saw the gift Ian handed to her, she felt a little moved.

Just then, Dou Yurui said, “Ian, that’s really thoughtful of you. Fourth Sis has been wanting the pigments produced by this manufacturer for a long time.”

Ian revealed a gentlemanly smile and said, “Gifts should be given based on what the other party needs the most.”

Upon hearing that, Dou Yurui gave Dou Xiangling a wink.

Dou Xiangling felt embarrassed by her teasing.

The Dou Family’s house was very lively in the afternoon. After the guests came over, all of them sat around Elder Dou and it ended up turning into a tea talk.

Ian made use of this opportunity when no one was paying attention to walk over to Dou Xiangling and he asked her, “Xiangling, I want to go for a walk near your neighborhood. Can you take me around?”

In fact, Ian had been to this neighborhood several times. After all, Wei An lived here, and therefore, he had come with a motive in mind today.

Dou Xiangling was not suspicious of him and nodded her head. Following that, she led him outside.

Dou Yue’er who turned her head to look at Ian just so happened to witness this scene. She stood up and wanted to follow them, but Dou Yurui had pulled her back. “Little Sis, what are you doing?”

“I also want to follow Fourth Sis and Ian to go out for a walk.”

Dou Yurui looked at her as if looking at a fool. “Can’t you see that Ian is chasing Xiangling? You had better sit down. If you want Ian to be your brother-in-law, don’t go over and make trouble.”

“Really!?” Dou Yue’er raised her voice in excitement, causing everyone to look in her direction.

Dou Yue’er blushed in embarrassment.

Dou Yurui helped her come up with an excuse. “I was talking to my Little Sis about an autopsy and she got a fright.”

Everyone present: “...”
