"I've told you a long time ago, you have to accept your fate! You've been unlucky since you were a child. Stop daydreaming about standing out. It didn't work in the past, and it won't work for you now!" 

"If it weren't for your parents dying early, leaving you with no one to rely on, I wouldn't have wanted to take you in. I'm just reluctantly doing it out of respect for your parents. You better learn to be grateful, you hear me?" 

Siaomu said, deliberately igniting the flame in his palm, burning underneath the teapot, and pouring a cup of green tea for Alex. 

"You haven't eaten for several days, right? Today, your big brother will treat you to a meal. In the future, if you want to eat or drink, follow me when we go out to find food. When you find something good, hand it over to me first, and I'll keep it for you. Understand?" 

Alex's cousin, Siaomu, lectured Alex in a serious tone using the tone of an elder.
