Chapter 8
[Chen Yu: “Didn’t you say that it wouldn’t explode?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “?”]
[Chen Yu: “Why did it explode all of a sudden?!”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Did it explode when you were doing the experiment?”]
[Chen Yu: “Yes! I followed the manual exactly and pressed the detonation button as I was told, and it really exploded! My protective gear shattered too!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “…”]
[Chen Yu: “Will the radiation leak out?”]
Hearing this, he rubbed his stomach subconsciously. He was indeed getting hungry. He shut his laptop and went to open up the door to see that Chen Sanke wasn’t the only person standing at the door. There was also Chen Yike, who was trying to sneakily worm her way into his room.
“What are you doing?” Chen Yu stretched out his hand, blocking Chen Yike.
“I’m going in to take a look.”
“Nope.”
“Why can you casually enter my room as you wish but I can’t do the same to you?” Chen Yike asked, displeased.
“When did I enter your room casually? I got a beating from yesterday, no?”
“Then you can beat me up too!” Chen Yike stuck her head in Chen Yu’s chest, trying to force her way through. “C’mon! I’m going in to take a look.”

“You…!” Chen Yu’s eyes widened. He raised his hand, posturing to give her a slap.

But Chen Yike was staring at him with puppy dog eyes. “You can’t bear to do it.”
Chen Yu: “…”
When the pair of siblings were in a deadlock, Chen Sanke, who was of a smaller size, had already taken a tour around Chen Yu room. “Big Sis, there’s no rope or knives in Big Brother’s room. The windows are closed too.” Chen Sanke walked out, speaking in a cute manner.
“How much are you hoping that I’ll commit suicide?” Chen Yu facepalmed.
“I’m just worried for you!” Chen Yike flushed red in anger. “You have been acting secretively these days! How do I know what you’re actually up to?”
“…Okay. It’s my bad.” Chen Yu sighed and moved aside. “Go in and do whatever you want.”
Chen Yike immediately stepped into the room with her arms akimbo. She glanced around the room. Suddenly, she pointed at Chen Yu’s bed. “You moved the bed!”
“So what?”
“There must be something beneath it!”
“…”
Chen Yike was right.
He had hidden the makeshift table and Uranium-235 Nuclear Energy Laboratory under his bed.
“I’m going to take a look to see what it is.”
But before Chen Yike could walk toward Chen Yu’s bed, she was thrown out of the room.
Bang!
Chen Yu shut the door tight and locked it from the outside. “You’re right, there is something beneath my bed, but I’m not going to let you take a look.” He shrugged.
“Then I’ll tell mom about it!”
“Do you still want the money for the school trip?”
“…You can buy my body but never my heart!”

“That doesn’t sound right.”

“If you don’t come for lunch, then I’ll eat your portion!” Chen Yike snorted, pulling Chen Sanke into the kitchen with her.
After keeping the key well, Chen Yu followed them into the kitchen and sat on his seat. As soon as Chen Yu started eating, he shot up in shock.
“What’s wrong? Are the vegetables too salty?” Chen Yike asked with doubt.
“I feel like I have forgotten something.”
“What?”
“I can’t remember it now.” Chen Yu frowned.
“Homework?”
“I never do my homework.”

Chen Yike rolled her eyes. She picked up a piece of vegetable and put it into her mouth, munching on it. “Actually, I feel that I have forgotten something too, but I don’t know what, so I did not dwell on it.”

“Nevermind.” Chen Yu waved his hands and ate in peace. “Let’s talk about it when we remember it….”

…
At the same time, Chen Erke stood outside of the abacus learning center, hugging the unopened bottle of black tea in her hands. She blinked her eyes, looking dazed as she stared at the busy streets while daydreaming away.

“Erke, is there no one to pick you up yet? The class ended more than half an hour ago.” A female teacher walked out, squatting down next to Erke.
“No….” Chen Erke said, scratching her head.
