Pepsi pouted. Yes!

Si Bai turned pale and began to cough violently.

Mrs. Si was worried, but Si Bai said, Can you give us a moment, please?

The grownups exchanged looks, then left the room as requested, leaving the two kids to themselves.

Im sorry, Si Bai apologized. It was my fault that day.

Of course it was! Pepsi stood her ground. You lied to me!

Si Bai blushed. He had indeed tricked Pepsi and kissed her

He had never expected the little girl to stay angry for this long.

Pepsi sounded aggrieved. You promised! You said youd come after I ate all the candy! I ate them all that night! My tummy ached for two days! But you didnt come

Si Bai apologized involuntarily. Im sorry. It was all my fault.

Wait. What?!

You finished all of it in one night? Si Bai asked in disbelief.

Pepsi nodded. Thats right. I worked hard!

Si Bai didnt know whether to laugh or cry. The little glutton!

What I said was: eat one candy a day and Ill be there before you finish the jar!

Huh? Pepsi nibbled her fingers and asked dumbly, Did you?

Yes, I did.

So youre not a liar?

Id never lie to you.

Pepsi stood there open-mouthed for a long moment before asking, Was it my mistake?

Hmph. Si Bai the tsundere looked away. And Im ill because of you.

I Im sorry stammered Pepsi. Little Bai, dont be mad at me

Sob it turned out to be her fault.

She had mistaken Little Bai for a liar and Uncle Qi had scolded Si Bai for it

Si Bai said in a matter-of-fact tone, Ive told you a million times. Dont call me Little Bai! Call me honey!

The little boy could be very bossy at times.

The simple-minded Pepsi was no match for his scheming and she called him in her baby voice, Honey.

Good girl. Si Bai smiled in satisfaction. Pepsi, youre such a dummy!

Leaning forward on the bed, Pepsi sighed. I guess I am

Dont worry! Im smarter and I can protect you! Ill buy you milk powder! The young Si Bai had a lot of ambition.

I want to have many, many bottles! The glutton drooled at the thought. Ill drink it! Cola can watch!

That amused Si Bai. No problem! Well drink together and he can only watch!

Yes!

Ssss Si Bai suddenly grunted and Pepsi asked nervously, Whats wrong?

Si Bai said in a low voice, Its ok. Its just a little headache.

Even grownups would be incapacitated by a high fever, let alone a kid his age.

Pepsi apologized guiltily. Im sorry

Si Bai straightened his baby face. Its all your fault that Im ill. The doctor said that I cant have painkillers, because Im too young, otherwise Ill become as dumb as you.

Pepsi wrinkled her nose. What what can I do?

Get up here. Si Bai patted the spot next to him.

Pepsi took off her shoes and climbed up on all fours. With much tugging and pulling from Si Bai, the chubby little girl was finally on the bed.

Kiss me and itll go away. Si Bai stuck out his lips.

Pepsi kissed him without hesitation!

Si Bai was only teasing her. He hadnt expected her to do it

His cheeks heated up instantly.

Was he getting a fever again?
