"I……"

The young man eagerly wanted to explain his behavior just now.

But he, who has always been clumsy and not good at words, became even more frustrated in this situation.

His mouth opened and closed.

Only a few meaningless syllables were uttered.

…

"Don't worry."

Xiao Xiao smiled reassuringly at the young man.

"I see."

"I don't think there's anything wrong with what you just said."

"If you have any objections, just say it directly."

"That's good."

"Don't you think this would make communication between us much smoother?"

Xiao Xiao raised the corners of his mouth.

…

Yes, yes?

The boy was not sure.

He looked at his elder brother blankly.

…

"certainly."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Do you like to always guess other people's psychology?"

"Or do you prefer the other party to tell you directly?"

…

The young man pursed his lips slightly.

Big brother said this...

It suddenly dawned on him...

He naturally likes people to tell him directly.

Because he is not a very smart person.

Even if he is very sensitive.

But he is not good at detecting other people's true thoughts.

He can feel the changes in the other person's emotions.

But it is impossible to know the reason for this change.

And this will make him even more panicked and at a loss.

…

Sometimes he wonders, if he were smarter, wouldn't it be...

Will many things become different?

He remembered what his grandparents always said to him...

Why is he not clever at all?

Why is he so stupid?

Let him take the initiative...

But……

Even if they say so...

He also has no idea what he should do?

How can he take the initiative?

He is so clumsy and dull that I can't stand it.

He didn't dare try.

Just the slightest frown from others can make him regret further and shrink into his own turtle shell.

He was afraid that his initiative would not receive any response.

In that case, he would rather do nothing.

This way he can comfort himself...what would happen if he did it...

Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to deceive himself.

…

Looking at the young man who was sinking again, Xiao Xiao smiled slightly.

"wait for me a while."

He stood up and left his position.

…

Um?

The boy's eyes followed his elder brother subconsciously.

…

He saw his eldest brother walking to the cashier...

He tilted his head.

The look on his face was dull.

…

"Please eat the cake."

Xiao Xiao came back soon.

He placed a plate in front of the boy.

…

Xiao Xiao sat down again.

Facing the young man's confused eyes, he arched his eyebrows.

"Yours is Black Forest Cake."

"This is a mango pancake."

"Or do you prefer mango pancake?"

…

Seeing that his elder brother wanted to change plates with him, the young man shook his head subconsciously.

There was a bit of worry on his face.

"No."

"This is fine for me."

He thought that his eldest brother liked mango pancakes, so naturally he didn't want his eldest brother to exchange his favorite dessert for him.

…

"I like them all."

As if he could tell what the young man was thinking, Xiao Xiao said with a smile.

"So it depends on what you like."

"or……"

Xiao Xiao used a knife to cut the mango pancake on the plate into two pieces.

"Let's share it."

"This way we can all have two flavors."
