Chapter 33: Flying a Kite

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Second Aunt could tell that if Shen Nan had not kept saying that he was going, Shen Yu would not have brought Shen Nan along.

With the butler following them, nothing should happen, right?

​ 

The car drove for a while and arrived at the park that they had discussed at the beginning.

The butler stood in a shady place considerately and arranged the food that Second Aunt had prepared. Then, he got someone to bring the kite that Shen Nan and Shen Yu had prepared.

Shen Nan carried the kite excitedly and walked to Emily’s side.

“Millie, watch this. In a while, my kite will definitely fly before Fifth Brother’s.”

Emily was originally focused on watching Shen Yu fiddle with his kite. She was hesitating whether she should go forward to help, but Shen Nan rushed to her side.

The attraction of a child was very easy to shift. At this moment, Emily was already attracted to the kite in Shen Nan’s hand.

“Sixth Brother, what is this kite of yours?”

Emily looked carefully, but she still could not see what kind of kite Shen Nan’s was.

“A monkey.”

Shen Nan looked at Emily proudly, as if waiting for Emily’s praise.

Emily paused. She really could not see that the kite in Shen Nan’s hand was a monkey.

Although the kite in Shen Nan’s hand looked like a kite, the pattern was extremely asymmetrical. Moreover, the color was red and yellow. It really did not look like a monkey.

The corner of Emily’s mouth twitched. It was not good to discourage Shen Nan’s enthusiasm.

“Sixth Brother is really amazing.”

Shen Nan was instantly overjoyed. He looked at Shen Yu with great pride.

See, his sister praised him.

Shen Yu scoffed and glanced at Emily, feeling very unhappy.

“Emi, come here.”

Emily hurriedly went forward. Shen Yu finally intended to pay attention to her.

“Hold this. When I tell you to fly it, fly it.”

Shen Yu handed the kite to Emily and then walked a little further away.

Shen Yu felt the wind around him and then said to Emily to fly it. Emily quickly let go of her hand.

Shen Yu shook the kite string in his hand and the kite flew up very quickly.

Emily jumped up excitedly and clapped her hands.

“Great, great, the kite is flying.”

Shen Yu raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Shen Nan proudly. Shen Nan was still fiddling with the kite in his hand.

Shen Nan waved the kite in his hand, but it could not fly.

Seeing that Shen Yu’s kite was flying, Shen Nan became even more flustered.

What exactly was wrong with him?

Shen Nan looked at Emily, who was clapping her hands excitedly. Shen Yu had asked Emily to hold the kite just now, so the kite could fly. Was he going to do the same as Shen Yu?

“Millie, help me hold the kite too.”

Emily looked excitedly at the kite in Shen Yu’s hand flying higher and higher, and the huge eagle was soaring in the air.

However, the kite in Shen Nan’s hand could not fly no matter how hard he tried. Seeing Shen Nan’s annoyed look, Emily could not help but feel a little heartache.

Emily hurriedly went forward to help Shen Nan hold the kite.

Shen Nan imitated Shen Yu and pushed it backward. Then, he let Emily fly the kite. Just like Shen Yu, he shook the string of the kite. However, the kite fell vertically to the ground.

Shen Nan looked troubled. Then, he got Emily to try again. Emily still followed suit, but the kite still could not fly.

Shen Nan looked at Shen Yu with a sad face and looked at him with envy.

Although Shen Yu saw that Emily was not excited about him flying the kite, when he saw Shen Nan’s dejected look when he could not fly the kite, he was very proud of himself.

Shen Nan was bragging about how good he was at flying the kite in the beginning, but now he was completely smacked in the face.

“Sixth Brother, don’t be dejected. It might be because there’s no wind. You can’t fly without wind,” Emily comforted him.

Shen Nan looked at Shen Yu’s kite in the air. There was no wind? Shen Yu’s kite did not fall. He felt that Emily was wrong.

“I’ll try again. Millie, raise the kite higher.”

Shen Nan took a deep breath. He did not believe that he could not fly the kite.

Emily nodded very cooperatively and raised the kite. She was afraid that it was not high enough, so she tried her best to stand on tiptoe.

With Shen Nan’s order, Emily released the kite. Seeing that the kite was far away from her, it flew a little, but soon it fell again.

Shen Nan angrily stomped on the ground.
