"Be careful your sister doesn't catch you. She'll beat you up, and I'm not stepping in."
"How could she? I'm only looking out for her. She'd never hit me. Bro, I've noticed you've been trying to fool me more and more. Now I'm starting to enjoy fooling other people, too."
At that, Mo Jingchun's mouth twitched. He glared at Candy, who wore an innocent expression.
"Don't try to pin this on me. I'm not taking the fall."
"Come on, let's go home. I saw the notice in the group chat. You have a lot of homework today, so get started as soon as we get back."
At the word "homework," Candy deflated, her energy gone.
"Bro, can't I do it tomorrow? We're not going out anyway."
"Do today's work today."
With her schoolbag on her back, Candy hurried to catch up with her brother and said helplessly, "But this is obviously two days' worth of weekend homework. If I do it tomorrow, that still counts as doing today's work today, right?"
Just as the group stepped into the elevator, Candy suddenly cried out.
"Oh no!"
Before Mo Jingchun and the others could ask what was wrong, Candy had already dashed out of the elevator.
Back in the office, Candy saw Xiao Huihui and Baozi still curled up in their beds, sleeping without a care in the world. She was so furious she wanted to march over and give each of the two troublemakers a good smack.
"Sleep, sleep, sleep! Still sleeping? We're going home!"
In the next instant, Xiao Huihui and Baozi darted off, leaving Candy standing there alone in bewilderment.
Outside, when Mo Jingchun and the others saw Xiao Huihui and Baozi running toward them, they understood at once. No wonder Candy had suddenly rushed back to the office.
