"I don't like plush toys," he said. He stopped playing with dolls a year ago because plush toys were for children and he was now a big boy.
"In that case, you should entertain yourself," Xi Xi said as she ran away and picked up her robot Du Du.
"Du Du, let me introduce you to Yuan Yuan. My mother says that he is my elder brother," Xi Xi said as she pointed at Yuan Yuan and stroked Du Du's head.
Du Du blinked its eyes and his eyes shone green.
"I know his name is Yuan Yuan. I've seen him before," Du Du said.
"Ah…" Xi Xi exclaimed in surprise.
Yuan Yuan sat on a stool nearby and stared at Du Du. He remembered seeing this robot at his aunt's house but he was surprised to see that Du Du ended up being Xi Xi's companion.
Xi Xi carried Du Du downstairs and Yuan Yuan trailed behind. They went to the backyard where Xi Xi would go play every day. Her swing, her pet goldfish, and the flowers she planted could all be found in the backyard.
