Ébourg teleported directly back to the door with Peter.
Peter glanced at the door and bent down to help Ébourg pat the sand off his body.
"You must not expose your ability, okay?" Peter stroked Ébourg's head and said seriously, "Especially your smile. You must smile like I taught you."
Ébourg nodded obediently, showing a shy smile, and said in a soft voice, "I know, Peter."
Peter patted his head, stood up straight, and took out the key to open the door.
"I'm back!" Peter opened the door and shouted as he changed his shoes.
He found a pair of slippers for Ébourg and helped Ébourg change.
"Whose child is this?" Benshu was slowly going downstairs with his hands on his waist. He saw Peter helping Ébourg change his shoes and asked, "Peter, why did you bring a child back?"
"Well … this is my friend's younger brother." Peter paused and said, "His family has something to do and has to go out for a while. It's not convenient to take him, so they asked me to take care of him for a while."
"What child?" Aunt Mei came out of the kitchen and saw Ébourg next to Peter. "Oh! God, this child is so cute! "
Aunt Mei took a few steps forward and walked in front of the two of them. She squatted down and looked at Ébourg. "Sweetheart, you are so cute. What's your name?"
"Ébourg." The corners of Ébourg's mouth curved up slightly, and two small dimples appeared on his cheeks. He looked at her with his big eyes and replied softly, "Hello, I'm Ébourg."
As he spoke, his eyes also curved, and his smile was very sweet, like a walking honey.
Aunt Mei couldn't help but hold him in her arms. "You are so cute! Sweetheart! "
Off to the side, Peter asked, "So can he stay at home for a while?"
"Of course!" She looked up at Peter. "You can stay as long as you want!"
Ébourg's eyes turned into crescents as he pursed his chubby lips and kissed Aunt Mei's cheek. "Thank you, Aunt Mei!"
Aunt Mei couldn't help but cover her heart. Too cute!
Peter: "… You haven't seen him when he's not cute."
Benshu: Hmph.
"But Ébourg seems to be a boy's name." Benshu looked at Ébourg's long hair and said.
"Ébourg is a boy." Peter explained, "He just has long hair. I'll have to ask Aunt Mei to tie it up for him later."
"No problem." Aunt Mei stood up and held Ébourg's chubby little hand. She lowered her head and said, "Let's go, Ébourg. I'll help you get a super cute hairstyle!"
Ébourg turned around and winked at Peter. Peter secretly gave him a thumbs up.
Watching Aunt Mei lead Ébourg to the room, Peter breathed a sigh of relief.
"Peter, do you have time now?" Benshu asked.
Peter: "Yes, uh, I mean, of course I have time."
Benshu nodded. "Very good. Then let's talk."
Peter: "…"
…
By the time Peter and Benshu finished talking, it was already an hour and a half later. Peter walked out of the room dejectedly. When he looked up, he saw Ébourg sitting in the center of the sofa, holding a bucket of popcorn in his hands. He was swinging his little feet and watching TV.
Peter took a closer look and was amused.
Ébourg's long black hair had been tied into two ponytails by Aunt Mei with a bow tie, one on each side. Ébourg's little head was swaying non-stop.
Ébourg heard Peter's laughter and turned his head. Peter took a look and realized that he looked even more like a girl now.
Peter walked over and sat next to him. Ébourg handed him the popcorn in his hands. Peter pinched Ébourg's chubby little face and grabbed a handful of popcorn.
Ébourg pointed at the TV and asked, "Peter, who is this person?"
The TV was playing a documentary about Captain America. For some reason, the TV was always playing this documentary recently.
"This is Captain America." Peter said, "He was a great hero during World War II. You can visit his museum for free. Almost everyone knows about him."
Ébourg: "Is he a good person?"
"Of course." Peter said, "If even Captain America is not a good person, then there must be no good people in the world."
Ébourg nodded thoughtfully.
"Peter, come and help me bring the plate to the dining table!" Aunt Mei shouted from the kitchen.
"Coming." Peter put his arm on the armrest of the sofa and flipped over. He ran briskly to the kitchen and almost bumped into Benshu, who was coming out of the kitchen with a plate. Fortunately, he subconsciously turned sideways to avoid it.
"Watch out, young man," Benshu reminded him.
Ébourg put down the popcorn bucket in his hand, jumped off the sofa, and ran to the kitchen with his short legs.
He shouted sweetly to Aunt Mei, "Aunt Mei, I'm here to help you."
Aunt Mei was still holding a colander in her hand. She was about to scoop the cooked spaghetti out of the water. She bent down with a smile, pinched Ébourg's face, and handed him a glass of warm milk on the table. "Well, my little gentleman, can you help me put this glass of milk on the table?"
"I promise to complete the task!" Ébourg said the lines he had just learned from TV. Then, he turned around and slowly walked away with the glass of milk in his hand. He stared at the glass of milk in his hand intently, afraid that it would spill. Seeing his serious look, Peter and Benshu hurriedly made way for him.
In order to welcome Ébourg's arrival, today's lunch was especially sumptuous.
The last glass of warm milk was prepared for Ébourg. When lunch was almost over, Ébourg held the glass and took a sip of the milk, leaving a milk mustache around his mouth.
Peter next to him helplessly pulled a tissue to wipe his mouth. He suddenly felt like he was Ébourg's stay-at-home dad.
Peter hurriedly shook his head and threw this terrible thought out of his mind. He was just a child!
However, when Aunt Mei said that she was going to coax Ébourg to take a nap after lunch, Peter hurriedly jumped out and took on this important task.
Peter Parker was honest in his words.
"Ébourg can sleep in my room, so I'll just coax him to take a nap." Peter said, "There's no need to trouble Aunt Mei."
"You really don't need to?" Aunt Mei hugged Ébourg and couldn't bear to let go. She imitated Ébourg and widened her eyes, trying to persuade her nephew. "I'm very experienced. You know, I was the one who took care of you when you were this old."
Peter held his forehead. "Aunt Mei, this trick of yours doesn't work on me …"
"Oh, really?" Aunt Mei reluctantly let go of Ébourg. She shrugged and said, "That's a pity."
As she spoke, she smacked Ébourg's face.
Ébourg held his face and giggled.
Benshu behind him reminded sadly, "Mei, you said you would give me a massage …"
After Benshu sprained his waist, the doctor advised his family to give him a gentle massage often to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
Aunt Mei stood up. "Okay, okay."
Peter led Ébourg upstairs to his room.
"It's only one o 'clock." Peter looked at the time and said, "I'm not sleepy at all. What about you, Ébourg?"
"I'm not sleepy either." Ébourg shook his head.
"I'm going to do my homework for a while." Peter went to get his schoolbag. "I have some comic books here. Ébourg, can you read these?"
"Okay." Ébourg sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to take the comic book that Peter handed to him. The comic book's cover was written "Captain America".
It seemed that Captain America was really a good person who was admired. With this thought in mind, Ébourg flipped open the comic book in his hand.
A gentle breeze blew in from the window, bringing with it the warmth of the afternoon. It was reassuring and comfortable, making people sleepy.
Peter sat at the desk under the window and did his homework. He gradually felt sleepy. His head nodded, and his eyelids gradually drooped. In the end, he couldn't help but fall asleep on the table.
At this time, Ébourg had just finished reading half of the comic book. He looked up at Peter as if he sensed something. The latter was already sleeping soundly.
Ébourg gently closed the comic book and put it on the bed.
After making sure that Peter was asleep for the last time, he quietly disappeared from the spot.
…
At the same time, in a deserted corner of the metropolis, a cute 'little girl' with two ponytails walked out.
Abel walked straight into the office building of Daily Planet. She smiled sweetly at the receptionist and said, "I'm sorry.
