Chapter 7: The Deceased Younger Sister

Wen Chi hugged his head with both hands and curled up like a shrimp.

The fear, despair, and the deep-rooted darkness, Sui Sui sensed them all at once.

This was her special skill as a little ginseng spirit — to sense the emotions of others.

Although it wasn't as magical as mind-reading, it was a piece of cake for her to tell whether a person was good or bad and how they were feeling.

With this trick, Sui Sui had avoided many two-faced bad guys after coming down the mountain.

So at this moment, she knew clearly that the sudden anger of Wen Chi wasn't directed at her.

On the contrary, he was afraid of her, and the one he loathed was himself.

Sui Sui tilted her head, her big eyes blinking, full of confusion.

How could someone loathe or even hate themselves? In Sui Sui's opinion, everyone should love themselves! Just like her, she loved herself the most, the super invincible love in the whole universe!

In this way, Sui Sui couldn't understand this predestined one even more.

She originally wanted to go forward to comfort Wen Chi, but obviously, Wen Chi was now afraid of her approach and resisted it.

Sui Sui was an understanding little ginseng spirit, so she generously waved her hand at him and said loudly, "Then I'll go inside first. Remember to come and eat oranges later."

Before Wen Chi could answer, Sui Sui walked into the house with her short legs slowly.

When she struggled to cross the threshold, she also secretly turned her head to take a look.

Wen Chi didn't look at her. His face was buried in his palms, and his body was as stiff as a stone, as if he would stand there for thousands of years.

"Alas." Sui Sui sighed softly and shook her head, her heart full of sympathy for the predestined one.

But in the eyes of the viewers in the live broadcast room, it was that the little cub was secretly sad and endured it without crying!

People are naturally inclined to favor small, weak, and cute cubs, especially when compared with Wen Chi, the "big bad guy".

[Is Wen Chi crazy?]

[The little NPC is so sensible and obedient. It's a pity to meet Wen Chi, who is not a human being.]

[Why is the program still filming? Aren't you afraid that Wen Chi's mania will hurt the little actor?]

[It's so ridiculous. The little cub didn't do anything. Why did Wen Chi suddenly lose his temper?]

[I didn't believe the rumor that Wen Chi bullied his teammates before. Now it seems that I was blind! Wen Chi is definitely a bully!]

[The sad back of the cub when leaving made my eyes wet. Wen Chi, go to hell!]

... These were basically the ordinary viewers in the live broadcast room.

They had just helped Sui Sui fight back against the anti-fans and even said a few good words for Wen Chi.

Now, they instantly became anti-fans of Wen Chi, wishing they could rush into the screen and smash Wen Chi's head!

As for Wen Chi's anti-fans, they were laughing loudly one by one, extremely happy.

[I said long ago that Wen Chi wasn't worth sympathizing with. You still helped him? You got slapped in the face!]

[This reversal came too fast. Hahaha.]

[Look, he treats a child like this. Can those black materials about Wen Chi be false?]

Having learned from the previous experience, the anti-fans became smarter and only cursed Wen Chi, avoiding Sui Sui.

This time, no one spoke up for Wen Chi…

Time passed slowly. Until the sun set and the last ray of light in the sky disappeared.

Warm yellow lights gradually lit up inside and outside the yard, and the bamboo lanterns hanging under the eaves swayed in the the wind.

Wen Chi was sitting quietly on the steps outside the house, as if in a daze.

Actually, when Sui Sui said she was going inside, he had already regained his senses.

The reason why he was still sitting here was simply because of embarrassment.

He himself didn't understand why he had lost control.

He clearly knew in his heart that his sister had died nine years ago. Even if she were still alive, she wouldn't be Sui Sui's age.

But he just couldn't help it and exploded!

The nightmare nine years ago was like a persistent bug, instantly devouring all his sanity, and he foolishly shouted at the innocent little Sui Sui.

Regret, annoyance, and depression... Not to mention that the viewers would scold him, even Wen Chi himself thought he was crazy.

It was dark now, and Wen Chi didn't 敢进 the house. He was afraid to face Sui Sui's clean eyes.

Gurgle. His hungry stomach was protesting.

Wen Chi thought, anyway, it was a dilemma. It was better to go inside and sincerely apologize to the little cub.

He irritably scratched his hair, and the dejected Wen Chi dragged his injured leg and slowly moved into the house like a snail to look for Sui Sui.

On the way, he casually glanced at the iPad. The screen was black, and the live broadcast room had been closed.

Wen Chi knew that the live broadcast time today was enough.

But that wasn't the point... Where was the person?

The house was extremely quiet, and the small figure was nowhere to be seen.

Since Sui Sui entered the house, he had been standing at the door.

The small thatched cottage had only one 门. It was impossible for Sui Sui to avoid him and leave or be taken away.

So, was she hiding?

Because she was shouted at by him and was in a bad mood, she simply hid and cried secretly?

Thinking that Sui Sui might hide herself in a dark corner, her small face wrinkled from crying, secretly suppressing her tears...

Wen Chi felt extremely bad and cursed himself as a "waste" again in his heart.

"Sui Sui." He cleared his throat, trying to make his voice gentle.

Unfortunately, he had a naturally cold voice. Even if he deliberately lowered it, it still didn't sound gentle, but rather colder.

Wen Chi:...

"I apologize to you."

It was still stiff. It didn't sound like an apology, but rather a 挑衅.

Taking a deep breath, Wen Chi decided to shut up for a while and find the person first.

He quickly passed by the dining table and cabinets in the outer room and then stepped into the inner bedroom.

"Humph... Hoo..."

It was very faint, but because the surroundings were too quiet, it sounded very clear.

Wen Chi's expression froze slightly, and he walked over step by step —

On his bed, a soft quilt was dented.

Sui Sui was sleeping there, her small face rosy, and a suspicious glimmer of saliva at the corner of her mouth.

It is said that people who lack a sense of security will curl up like a baby in its mother's womb when sleeping.

Looking at this little one sleeping soundly, her limbs were sprawled out carelessly, sleeping so heartlessly and recklessly!

Such a small person could still occupy a 1.5-meter-wide bed!

She didn't even change her dirty clothes, with a messy chicken-nest hair and grass leaves vaguely visible in her hair.

Wen Chi had a slight obsession with cleanliness. Logically, he should have been furious long ago.

But at this moment, he only felt relieved.

He walked out of the room and gently put down the curtain, leaving the space for Sui Sui.

Only then did Wen Chi see two peeled oranges and a glass of water on the table.

Prepared by Sui Sui?

Wen Chi couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.

Although the orange flesh was pitted, he still ate it bit by bit.

He also drank all the water.

Strange, this water seemed to have a special sweetness?

And those two bunches of weeds that Sui Sui had stuffed into the supply bag to make up the number seemed to be fewer?

But Wen Chi didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was just an illusion.
