The smile on Old Lady Shen’s face became even more cheerful. She had easily solved the problem that Old Man Shen Yan found difficult. Old Lady Shen could not help but feel a little proud.

Shen Yu, on the other hand, wore a bitter expression. He felt that Old Lady Shen had done it on purpose. It was impossible for him to be in the same class as Emily.

Second Aunt and Third Aunt looked at each other and smiled. Old Lady Shen had emphasized that Shen Yu was two grades older than Emily. How could they not notice such an obvious move?

“Emily is going to study. I have to think carefully about what school supplies I should buy for her.”

Second Aunt was the most excited. She could buy things again.

This time, she had to make a good plan for Emily.

“Are you that happy?”

Shen Yu saw that Emily was happy, so he was naturally happy. However, when he thought of not being in the same class as Emily, Shen Yu could not be happy.

Emily nodded her head heavily, and her eyes could not help but become moist.

“Dad… the night before dad left, he told Mom that he was going to send me to school.”

Emily’s voice became softer and softer.

If her family was still around, she would have been sitting in the classroom with her classmates and reading books by now.

The living room instantly fell silent. Second Aunt could not help but feel sorry for Emily as she hugged her in her arms and gently stroked Emily’s back.

“Good child.”

“Millie, you are so smart and know how to work hard. There will definitely be no problem for you to study. You little brat, don’t let Millie beat you when the time comes. When the time comes, you will be embarrassed.”

Third Aunt forcefully poked Shen Nan’s head. Shen Nan instantly looked at Third Aunt with dissatisfaction.

“How is that possible? I am in the top three of our grade, okay?”

“The top three of your grade. You are only in the first grade of primary school now.”

Third Aunt sneered and mercilessly rebuked Shen Nan.

“So what if you are in the first grade? There are grades in the first grade. Mom, you have to compare me with my peers.”

Shen Nan was not convinced. His mother liked to compare him with his other brothers the most. However, he was only so old. How could he be as good as his other brothers?

“Oh, you can’t say that. I don’t know where you learned this bad habit. This is called arrogance. Look at Millie. You should learn more and be more sensible. It will also save me some effort.”

Shen Nan turned his head to the side. He did not want to bother with his mother. Anyway, in his mother’s eyes, he was no better than anyone else.

Emily, who was originally a little sad, was distracted by Shen Nan and Third Aunt’s sudden move.

Emily wanted to speak up for Shen Nan, but Shen Yu pulled her hand. She looked at Shen Yu in confusion and saw a hint of schadenfreude in Shen Yu’s eyes?

Then… then she would naturally stand on Shen Yu’s side.

Emily obediently sat beside Shen Yu, eating the fruit that Second Aunt peeled and watching the show with Shen Yu.

After watching for a while, Shen Yu felt bored and picked up the chess book that was originally placed at the side. Emily instantly became interested and stared at the Go book in Shen Yu’s hand.

The Go book was incomplete. Looking at the black and white pieces on the Go book, Emily could not help but be a little surprised. She seemed to have seen this Go book in a dream.

Emily narrowed her eyes. She had to think carefully. Where was the next move of the white-clothed sister in her dream?

“Brother, will we win if we put the white pieces here?”

Emily excitedly stretched out her finger and pointed at a position on the Go book.

Perhaps because she was too excited, Emily’s voice could not help but be a little loud, attracting everyone’s attention. Even Shen Nan, who was quarreling with his mother, looked over.

When he thought of what Emily had said just now, Shen Nan did not believe it.

“Millie? You can understand it?”

Shen Nan looked at the Go book in Shen Yu’s hand again. He only knew that Shen Yu was looking at Go. After that, he knew black and white pieces, but he did not know anything about go. Emily actually knew Go?

It was impossible. Emily must have met a dead piece by accident.

“I can understand it. If the white is here, the white will win, and then…”

Emily thought for a while and then changed to another position. She pointed and continued.

“If the black is here, the white will have no chance to turn the tables.”

She remembered that the white-clothed sister had told her this in her dream.

Shen Yu looked carefully at the two positions that Emily had mentioned. After thinking for a while, he widened his eyes in surprise.
