Just as Su Li was about to step out, Su Bing emerged from the kitchen, his tone as stingy as ever. "Make sure to return the change to me. Don't go wasting money."
Su Li pursed his lips and muttered under his breath to Su Le, "Big Brother is so petty. Let's go." With that, he grabbed Su Le's hand and led her out the door to buy soy sauce.
On their way back, Su Li, ever the childish one, bounced along the pavement with a lollipop between his lips, pulling Su Le along like a carefree little boy.
Su Le couldn't help but think how immature her second brother was. She herself had no interest in sweets—Big Brother had warned against frivolous spending, but Su Li, weak-willed as ever, had succumbed to temptation.
Ignoring her reluctance, he swiftly unwrapped another lollipop and popped it into her mouth. "Little sister, just say you wanted it."
