"You really won’t accept my kindness?" Black Cocoon sighed, "I ca all the way here just to bring you a gift, preemptively wishing you a happy birthday."
"Don’t push your luck," Gu Qiye couldn’t take it anymore, crossing her arms with a sigh, looking up at Black Cocoon, "I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll let you off. Don’t force to kick you out by force."
"Oh... as the saying goes, no one enters a family’s door without being part of it. I know I may have been a bit intrusive, but is there really a need for you two to treat this way?" Black Cocoon shook his head, "I get it, you’re probably thinking that without , the four of you would have been reunited with your mother underground long ago."
With that, he dejectedly looked away.
In his heart, he began to plan how to fake his own death in front of them soday, preferably stepping in to take a beating from the Rainbow Wings while the whole family gets torn apart at sunset.
That way, he could completely extricate himself from this family, avoiding being hunted endlessly all over the world by an electric rat and a Refrigerator Demon while traveling the globe with Kong Youling.
Though, it might be worth considering to visit Li Jing’s grave with Kong Youling once a year and observe a few big n weeping by Gu Wenyu’s tomb.
"By the way, don’t be too moved by your sibling reunion. Miss Ke Zinan has actually had a negative opinion of Blue Arc for quite a while now."
Saying this, Black Cocoon let out a long sigh and continued:
"She set her WeChat Monts to invisible for you, and what’s more, a casual scroll through her feed shows things like: ’The Big Blue Rat is so greasy, always posing awkwardly to act cool, and those who like him have no taste.’
He paused and said eerily: "Further down you’ll even find ’It’s so disgusting to isolate people just because your roommate doesn’t like that stupid electric rat. Tomorrow, I’ll go up to them and call Blue Arc stupid in each of their faces.’
Gu Qiye was stunned: "Really?"
Su Zimai’s eyes widened, her face flushed with embarrassnt as she stamred, "How could it be?!Th-th-th-th... that’s obviously made up by him! Brother, don’t listen to him trying to drive a wedge between us!"
"The innocent remain innocent." Black Cocoon said lightly.
"Enough with the nonsense, get out of here!" Su Zimai’s expression turned cold instantly, "If you don’t leave, I will dissect you, you big flapping moth!"
Saying this, Su Zimai’s Magic Gloves gathered countless glimrs of light, then burst forth like dazzling daylight. She was already planning to unleash her trump card, the "Execution Cabinet," on Black Cocoon.
Honestly, having big brother find out about the pants-wetting incident wouldn’t really matter, just a tad embarrassing at most;
But if second brother knew, it would be over. Gu Wenyu would hang this matter on his lips 24/7, endlessly humiliating her. She would have no hope of living in this household anymore!
Therefore, she must hurry to get Black Cocoon out before second brother cos down! If she can’t send him away, then she’ll just have to take him out, silencing him forever.
But just then, the last thing Su Zimai wanted to see happened.
Only to hear the sound of a door opening from upstairs, followed by footsteps echoing down the corridor, and then a lazy voice:
"What’s going on here? You guys are making it sound like a burglar’s broke into the house, can’t I get so rest?"
Hearing Gu Wenyu’s voice, Su Zimai’s expression froze for a mont, her ears and face flushed a deep red, and then she suddenly raised her Magic Gloves towards Black Cocoon:
"Since you won’t leave, I’ll just have to send you to Hell."
"That’s not sothing a cute high school girl should say," Black Cocoon sensibly waved with the restraint belt, flipping through a book while saying: "Looks like it’s ti to leave, wish you all a pleasant evening."
With that, he leaned back and disappeared into the endless evening breeze.
Su Zimai watched him leave, clutching her chest with a deep breath of relief, slowly retracting her Celestial Driver, and the Magician’s Kit dissolved into a flurry of glimring light.
Gu Qiye also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that her sister might burn the living room to ashes, making it difficult to explain when dad returned.
Not long after, Ji Minghuan ca quickly downstairs, stopping on the staircase, raising his eyebrows suspiciously as he looked at the two in the living room.
He hesitated, "Uh... did you two get into a fight?"
"No." Gu Qiye thought for a mont, quickly changing the subject, "How about we go out for so late-night snacks?"
"Sure, I’m just feeling hungry," Ji Minghuan said while coming down the stairs.
"Let’s go... it’s on ." Su Zimai said softly.
Tears still glistened in her eyes, almost shedding tears from the anger caused by Black Cocoon just now.
Ji Minghuan looked at her expression, then glanced at the living room, suddenly raising his hand to point at that lone diaper lying in the corner of the living room.
"Pardon asking, but why is there a diaper lying there?" he said.
Gu Qiye and Su Zimai simultaneously blinked, the latter’s shoulders twitched, already beginning to anticipate the relentless ridicule she would face after Gu Wenyu learned about the auction incident.
Hell on earth... this must be what hell on earth is, Su Zimai pursed her lips.
Just then, Gu Qiye spoke up to save her: "I have a friend, he... is about to have a baby, and I was thinking about whether to give him a diaper as a gift, so I was just asking Xiaomai’s opinion."
He placed his hand on Su Zimai’s shoulder with a slight smile, "Isn’t that right?"
Su Zimai silently nodded.
"Brother, you are truly a gem of a man, it’s the first ti I’ve seen soone gifting diapers." Ji Minghuan silently gave a thumbs up, "And it’s even of the BabyBus brand."
"No way... let’s go," Gu Qiye took a deep breath with a slight smile, wrapped his left arm around his brother’s shoulder and his right arm around his sister’s shoulder, guiding them out.
After the late-night snack, Su Zimai and Gu Qiye said they wanted to take a walk in the park to chat away their thoughts.
Ji Minghuan was a bit tired, so he turned back ho without looking back, washed up, and lay down on the bed.
Since he had delivered the gift, he had no regrets, and he hoped that his sister could enjoy her night with joy, having accepted his sentint. Thinking of this, he calmly closed his eyes, synchronizing his consciousness to the Second Body.
There was a ti difference between Venice and Li Jing, and the water city was still in the afternoon.
Because Xia Pingzhou and Ayase Origami had gone to bed very late last night, today they were once again sleeping in, and by the afternoon, they still hadn’t woken up.
So Ji Minghuan synchronized his consciousness to the Third Body, deliberately checking the situation there—who knew if the Queen or the Princes would send another group when they’d discovered the assassin hadn’t reported back by nightfall?
In any case, the Yaguba side was his main concern for the ti being.
He feared that if he closed his eyes for a short nap, he would wake up to find Cezar’s corpse hanging from the ceiling, wailing woe and lantation.
At this mont, it was already late at night in the Whale Terrarium.
The sound of swelling waves ca from the hazy sky, black waters breaking on the whale’s skin into white foam.
Yaguba lay at the base of the Crystal Ball, quietly watching Cezar’s sleeping face.
It thought to itself: "So it turns out Cezar’s mom is the real culprit... Good. Originally, I was planning to put the First Body’s mom back in the coffin, but it looks like I won’t need to busy myself with that over there. Instead, there’s a mom waiting to be buried here."
Retracting its gaze from the white-haired boy’s face, the little shark burbled out two puffs of seawater, slowly closing its eyelids, and soon it was sound asleep.
