"Brother..."

By the time it was nearly eight o'clock, the little ones were exhausted from playing. They swarmed over, and little Qiu'er, holding little Dong'er's hand, happily threw herself into Yang Qing's arms.

"Look at you, covered in sweat from playing."

Yang Qing smiled and wiped the sweat from the little sisters' foreheads before looking at little Xi'er. "Xi'er, come here, let Brother wipe your sweat, too."

"Hiahia..."

Little Xi'er burst into a joyful laugh, then threw herself into Yang Qing's arms, nuzzling him with a sweet, milky voice: "Brother Qing, Xi'er has made a good friend!"

As she spoke, the little girl glanced at Dudu, the toddler nearby who was having her sweat wiped by her mother, and whispered into Yang Qing's ear: "Brother Qing, this little doll can't talk, but she's so cute. Xi'er likes playing with her, and Xi'er wants to teach her how to talk."

"Hmm..."

Hearing this, a spark appeared in Yang Qing's eyes. This baby Xi'er was just so kind and full of love.

"Yes, that little doll is named Dudu," Yang Qing said, handing a bottle of Little Bear yogurt to little Xi'er with a smile. "Here, Brother is rewarding you with a Little Bear for being so supportive!"

Little Xi'er's eyes gleamed with longing, but her little hand waved back and forth. "No, Xi'er promised my big sister that I'd only drink two bottles of Little Bear a day. Xi'er has already had enough today."

Yang Qing laughed and nodded. "Brother knows, but this bottle is a reward from Brother to our Xi'er, so it's okay."

"Is it really okay?" Little Xi'er blinked her big eyes, filled with desire.

"Yes, here."

"Hiahia..."

Little Xi'er laughed happily, then took the Little Bear and went to show off to little Qiu'er and Xiaobai, telling them that Brother Qing had rewarded her with it.

With that, she inserted the straw and held it to little Dong'er's lips, saying in her milky voice, "Dong'er, drink."

After little Dong'er took a sip, little Xi'er passed the Little Bear to little Qiu'er, then to Xiaobai, then to little Dudu, who babbled in baby talk, and finally, she drank from it herself.

Little Xi'er was a child who loved to share. Although there was hardly anything left by the time it reached her, she was incredibly happy.

Yang Qing watched the little ones sharing the drink, then pondered for a moment before asking Dudu's parents: "Dudu still can't talk at this age—does she have a language impairment?"

Upon hearing this, Dudu's father quickly typed on his phone: No. We took Dudu to the hospital for an examination; she is the same as any normal child. She doesn't talk because of the environment she grew up in.

After reading this, Yang Qing smiled. He pointed at little Xi'er and said to Dudu's parents, "My little sister just said she wants to teach Dudu how to talk."

"Whoosh!"

Hearing this, Dudu's parents' eyes lit up, filled with joy and gratitude.

"Thank you!"

After a long moment, Dudu's father typed these two words on his phone.

Yang Qing and Bai Zhijun looked on and smiled, but beneath their smiles, they felt a pang in their hearts. A parent's heart is truly a pitiful thing.

...

Meanwhile, Li Dongning and Wang Ming, who had arranged to meet with Yang Qing, picked up Fang Du and set off as well.

"That's too fierce! Brother Qing is about to take off! It's only been half a day, and his songs and melodies are already dominating the charts! It's simply incredible!" As soon as he got into the car, Fang Du said excitedly.

"Heh, you think my sister's title as a Heavenly Queen is just for show?" Wang Ming said, driving with a hint of pride. "I'm not bragging, but one post from my sister is more powerful than any promotional ad your TV station could run!"

"Yeah, I agree with that," Li Dongning sighed. "It's just a pity, though."

"Huh? What's a pity?" Wang Ming was stunned.

Li Dongning sighed. "Sigh, I was originally planning to use my 'big move,' but before I could even exert any effort, Qingzi had already taken off. It's been so stifling for me."

"Big move? What big move?" Fang Du asked curiously.

Li Dongning gave him a faint glance and said, "Internet water army."

Fang Du: "Water army?"

Wang Ming: "Water army!"

Li Dongning: "Yeah, what else could it be? On the battlefield of the internet, the water army is invincible!"

Wang Ming →_→: "How much did you spend?"

"Ahem..." Li Dongning coughed. "Not much, just a few tens of thousands."

"A few tens of thousands!" Fang Du exclaimed. "Doesn't that mean... you've just thrown your money down the drain!"

"Not at all," Li Dongning shook his head. "They have principles—if they take the money, they get the job done. So, I'll just have to save this big move for later."

Wang Ming seemed to suddenly understand his intention and said helplessly, "Take it easy; that's an official website, after all."

"It's fine." Li Dongning waved his hand dismissively. "I have a sense of proportion. Besides, my water army is really just a spark. As long as we can get this artificial fire burning, the rest will all be real fire."

"Hmm," Wang Ming nodded. "Just don't burn yourself in the process. When do you plan to implement it?"

Li Dongning laughed. "After your sister's concert ends. For now, let Qingzi keep flying!"

"What kind of nonsense are you two talking about? Speak like human beings!"

Fang Du, completely confused, retorted, then pulled out his phone. "I'm calling Brother Qing."

"Yeah, call him. The barbecue stall on Wuyi Street!"

...

At eight-thirty, Yang Qing received the call from Fang Du. After agreeing on the meeting place, he looked at Dudu's parents: "I'm sorry, our friends have arranged for us to go eat barbecue together. Would you like to join us?"

Upon hearing this, Dudu's father waved his hands hurriedly, then typed a question to Yang Qing: Are you bringing your little sister here to play again tomorrow?

Yang Qing looked at the hope in the young couple's eyes and nodded with a smile: "Yes!"

Dudu's parents smiled and gave Yang Qing a thumbs-up. Then, Dudu's father pointed at the beer on the ground, then at himself, signaling that he would bring the drinks tomorrow.

Bai Zhijun understood the gesture instantly and laughed with bright eyes: "Good! See you tomorrow!"

It was time for a brief parting. Yang Qing and the others weren't too bothered, but it was different for the little ones; children's feelings are often swift and sincere.

Little Qiu'er, Xiaobai, and little Xi'er huddled together, hugging little Dudu and saying their sad, hushed goodbyes.

Perhaps because Dudu couldn't speak, they felt an extra sense of pity for their new friend.

Dudu was also a bit sad; she babbled in baby talk while her little hands moved in constant sign language, but unfortunately, the three little ones could neither hear nor understand.

At the very end of their farewell, Dudu stepped forward and picked up little Xi'er, making her laugh with "hiahia" sounds and praising Dudu for being so strong.

Dudu grinned happily, hugged little Qiu'er and Xiaobai, and gave little Dong'er a sweet kiss before leaving with her parents.

"Brother, Dudu's hands were doing this and that... what was she doing?"

On the way to the Wuyi Street barbecue stall, little Qiu'er mimicked Dudu's hand gestures and asked Yang Qing, who was carrying little Dong'er, with curiosity.

"That's sign language," Yang Qing said softly. "Since they can't talk, they use sign language to communicate. It's like a substitute for speech. If we learn sign language too, we'll be able to understand what they want to express and be able to talk with them."

"Whoosh!"

Little Qiu'er's eyes lit up immediately, but before she could speak, little Xi'er jumped up and down, calling out in her milky voice:

"Brother Qing, Xi'er wants to learn this... will you teach Xi'er, please?"

Yang Qing looked at her flailing little hands and then at little Qiu'er and Xiaobai, who were equally expectant. He smiled and said:

"Brother doesn't know sign language either, but I can learn. How about I learn it and teach you at the same time?"

"Okay!"

The three little ones chimed in with happy, milky voices.
