Die in the Ribs Bowl, Even Ghosts Are Romantic

Half an hour later, Qiao Xi stood at the door of the Qiao family home with a smug Young Master Yu Siyan in tow.

On the way, she tried everything—threats and inducements—but nothing worked.

No matter what she said, Yu Siyan only had one response: "I'm going."

Before entering the house, Qiao Xi sighed, "So young, and already wanting to go to such complicated places, sigh..."

Yu Siyan pouted, "How complicated can it be?"

The next second, just as Qiao Xi stepped inside, a kitchen knife flew through the air!

"Clang!"

It embedded itself into the wall right next to Qiao Xi.

"Qiao Xi! Get up here and face your death!"

From the second floor, the original host's grandfather, Qiao Guanjun, shouted.

The original host lived with her parents and grandfather, but in the book, the entire family died in the end.

Grandfather Qiao Guanjun, a scientific fanatic, blew himself up. Mother Li Lianrong choked to death while eating, and father Qiao Dagang committed suicide in grief. It seemed the author wasn't in the best mental state at the time, hinting at a tragic ending for everyone.

System Xiao 6 chuckled, "If you hadn't told me, I would have thought this book was written by the master."

Qiao Xi: "Are you mocking me?"

Xiao 6 quickly shut itself off.

Qiao Xi looked up and said, "Grandpa, we have guests, so please be more restrained!"

As she turned, she planned to formally introduce the young master.

But when she looked, the spot next to her was empty.

Yu Siyan had already jumped back into the car and urged Cheng Xi, "Drive, hurry, drive faster."

Better late than dead.

Qiao Xi: "..."

The car sped off, leaving only exhaust fumes behind.

Qiao Xi entered the house alone, just in time for dinner, her face lighting up with joy!

Xiao 6 reappeared to remind her, "The real daughter has already returned. According to the book, she will put something in your food to give you diarrhea tonight. This will lead to a confrontation where she wins your parents' love."

Qiao Xi: "Darn, it won't be in the ribs, will it? If it is, I have no choice but to eat them."

Xiao 6: "..."

Sure enough, as soon as she sat down, footsteps sounded behind her.

"Sister, you're back!" A soft voice called.

A graceful figure approached and sat beside Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi looked up to see a classical beauty with almond-shaped eyes and an oval face, smiling sweetly at her.

"You must be hungry from being outside," Qiao Yuyi said, pushing the ribs towards her. "Have some more."

Qiao Xi licked her lips and began eating.

Xiao 6: "Master!"

"Dying for ribs, I'd even die in style as a ghost!"

With that, she took a big bite.

Xiao 6: "..."

At this moment, Qiao Guanjun rolled his eyes and said, "She won't starve herself? I saw her on the show, she was eating quite happily!"

"Xi Xi, you really were reckless this time," Qiao Dagang said in a deep voice.

Xiao 6 said, "Master, be prepared. The real daughter is sure to use her silver tongue to turn things around, making you lose your position in the family!"

Qiao Xi: Ok, bring it on.

The next moment, Qiao Yuyi said, "But I think it was fine. People on the show were just looking to make fun of Sister, so it was right for her to fight back. Should she have let them bully her?"

Qiao Xi: ?

Wait, what? She's defending me?

Then Li Lianrong also said, "But no matter what, you shouldn't make someone eat cow dung!"

"But that person was always targeting Sister," Qiao Yuyi continued. "He even stole her resources and released negative rumors about her!"

Qiao Xi: ???

Qiao Guanjun: "But we're a scholarly family; we shouldn't just curse people!"

Qiao Yuyi: "A scholarly family also needs self-protection. In the entertainment industry, if you give an inch, others will take a mile."

Qiao Xi: "..."

"Xiao 6, did you make a mistake? Could it be that the villain and the real daughter are both off-script?"

Xiao 6 replied, "It's possible. The timeline of this world has already changed, so it's normal for some characters to change too."

Qiao Xi's principle was: forget what you can't understand.

So, she quickly moved on to her second plate of ribs.

While eating, she kept an eye on Qiao Yuyi.

But the other woman seemed to be wearing a perfect mask, always smiling, revealing nothing.

Suddenly, the sound of an engine came from outside.

"What's going on?" Li Lianrong peeked out.

Butler Wu came in, coughed lightly, and said with a complex expression, "Um... the young master from the Yu family is here."

Yu Siyan came?

Qiao Xi turned, chewing on a rib, and sneered.

Scared to death just now, and now...

Qiao Xi paused, rubbed her eyes.

The next second, she spat out the rib completely!

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Outside, Yu Siyan had styled his hair like an adult, wore a handsome suit, held eight gift boxes, and had a keychain hanging from his waist. His hair was so slick with mousse it looked sculpted, completely relying on his perfect face to pull off the look.

He confidently smiled at Cheng Xi, who was in a tree.

Cheng Xi nodded enthusiastically, mouthing, "That's it! The charm of a mature man! I checked it online myself! Young Master, good luck!"

Yu Siyan turned back with a smile.

"Hello, future father-in-law and mother-in-law, grandpa," he said, smiling. "I brought some small gifts. I hope you like them."

Qiao Xi: "..."

Five minutes later.

Yu Siyan sat upright on the living room sofa, ignoring Qiao Xi's exaggerated eye-rolling.

Li Lianrong was delighted, laughing uncontrollably, "Oh my! Nian Nian, you have such a sweet tongue! Come, have some tea, have some tea!"

"He doesn't drink tea," Qiao Xi said, narrowing her eyes. "He's very particular—his water has to be at a specific temperature, and he wouldn't touch this kind of tea..."

"Slurp, slurp!"

Yu Siyan drank three cups in a row!

Qiao Xi: ???

"It's delicious," he smiled sweetly. "Could I have another cup? This tea is even better than what my tea master brews."

Qiao Dagang was immediately pleased!

"It's rare for you to like it! Come, come, there's plenty! Sit here!"

Qiao Xi added, "He won't sit on that chair; he's afraid..." It's dirty.

Before she could finish, Yu Siyan wiped the chair with his sleeve and sat down gracefully.

Looking pitiful, he said, "Maybe Xi Xi has a prejudice against me."

Li Lianrong immediately turned to scold Qiao Xi, "Look what you've done! You be quiet, don't say another word!"

Qiao Xi: "..."

Heavens.

Is this kid here to ruin me?

She promptly chased everyone out and slammed the door shut.

The room suddenly became quiet, with only the two of them left.

Qiao Xi turned again, seeing the young master sitting obediently on the bed, looking up at her sincerely.

"Go home," Qiao Xi said.

Yu Siyan hugged a pillow, "No, I want to stay here. My future father-in-law and mother-in-law told me to stay."

Fine, so he's rebellious, huh?

Qiao Xi suddenly smiled and said to Xiao 6, "Open the item panel."

After leveling up five levels last time, she had gained five items.

Besides "King of Games," there were "Shrinking Pill (1 hour)," "Arousal Potion," "Truth Pill," and the skill "Animal Affinity."

Qiao Xi chuckled, "Say, if I put that shrinking pill in his pants..."

Xiao 6: !!!

Ahhhhhh!

Its ears were tainted! Tainted!!!

Qiao Xi leisurely took out the pill.

"Just one hour, but a lifetime of shadow—Shrinking Pill! Deploy!"
