Chapter 119 – Hey Friend, Have You Heard of ‘Siscon’? (19)
Yan Luo kept her eyes closed, breathing slowly.
“Who knows what kind of situation we’ll encounter in the next dimension.”
Little Pink wanted to argue for itself, but hesitated for a long time…
[Hmm… Why does it feel like, indeed, maybe, probably, Host is right?] 🥺
“Don’t worry, as long as I don’t have to face those weird things directly, I think I’m still brave.”
To what Yan Luo said, Little Pink had only one thing to say, [‘Mr. Brave’ is already exhausted, please don’t push it onto ‘Mr. Brave’ anymore, okay?]
[So, does Host want to continue? We might not stay in this dimension as long as before.]
“Yeah,” Yan Luo responded softly, “Let’s go check out the Empire first. I always feel that the reason why Lu Buchi holds such great resentment towards the Empire is not only because the Empire incited the chaos that led to the death of his loved ones.”
There must be something she doesn’t know, something the system doesn’t know, and finding it is the key to this dimension.
The hand covering her eyes had moved away, and Yan Luo’s body curled slightly.
The person in front of her just concealed his true intentions with warmth, and she, too, masked her emotions with a disguise. Let her see first what he really wants to do.
The Alliance’s First Academy was not far from the Yan family’s household, and Yan Luo had just dozed off for about twenty minutes before being gently awakened by Lu Buchi.
Rubbing her eyes with one hand and holding onto Lu Buchi’s arm with the other, Yan Luo yawned delicately and walked into the house.
But the door had already opened before the two entered.
A strange yet familiar aura enveloped Yan Luo, making her instinctively widen her eyes.
Just as the hand was about to touch Yan Luo’s head, Lu Buchi subconsciously tried to pat it away, and a hint of gloominess surged around him.
“Hmph.” The person chuckled lightly and withdrew his hand before Lu Buchi could react. “Long time no see, is this how you treat your Brother as soon as you come back?”
The person appeared to be in his early twenties, with half-closed eyes and hair that wasn’t pure black, revealing a hint of flaxen under the sunlight. He seemed to have been back for some time, dressed in loose home clothes, bearing a resemblance to Yan Qi between his brows.
With a light laugh, he raised his hand and arched his eyebrows, “What’s wrong? Baby, are you so happy to see your Brother that you’re dumbstruck? Come, come to let your Brother hug you?”
An extremely handsome man.
Before Yan Luo could react, her body’s instinct made her joyfully call out “Brother!” and then subconsciously release Lu Buchi’s hand, pouncing towards the man.
Yan Bai chuckled as he scooped up his long-unseen little sister and lifted her up amidst her tinkling laughter.
Although the little girl had grown up quite a bit, she was still petite and delicate to both Lu Buchi and Yan Bai. Playing around and lifting her up was no problem at all.
The soft warmth on his arm disappeared in an instant, Lu Buchi’s body stiffened slightly, the oppressive aura around him momentarily released but quickly converged again, with a hint of depth in his eyes.
Yan Bai, Yan Luo’s real brother.
Even though Yan Luo was usually close to Lu Buchi, at this moment, he seemed like an outsider in front of these two siblings.
Yan Bai was her brother, while Lu Buchi was her ‘Elder Brother1‘ in her words, which was different.
An uncomfortable feeling mixed with dissatisfaction filled his heart, which was inexplicable and indescribable.
- I translate it as ‘Elder Brother’ but the word is actually 小哥哥 (xiǎo gēgē) which literally translates to ‘little older brother’ and is also commonly used as a way to call a young man in general. ↩︎
