"Xu Mo, do you like me?"
Xu Mo's first reaction was, "What the hell?"
Like you?
You must be crazy.
"What are you going crazy about so early in the morning?"
Xu Mo was a bit speechless and tried to walk around her.
"You can't leave! You haven't answered me yet."
Xu Shi spread her little arms wide, blocking Xu Mo's path.
Xu Mo took a cautious half-step back, being a chronic hypochondriac who feared that Xu Shi might suddenly pull out a knife.
Stab him.
Alright...
Actually, the reason for his half-step back was quite simple.
He wanted to observe if Xu Shi was sick.
If she was, he needed to send her for timely treatment.
After recovery, she might even be considered a medical miracle.
"I don't have time to play house with you."
Xu Mo was covered in black lines.
[Damn!]
[How could such a question come out of your mouth?]
[Please don't ask such childish questions, thank you for your cooperation.]
"I'm telling you, we're not biological siblings!"
Xu Shi dropped a bombshell (╯‵□′)╯•••*~●
Xu Mo was completely stunned.
( ̄△ ̄;)
The two stared at each other, their eyes wide.
Due to the height difference, the scene looked quite comical.
Xu Shi's impressive bust was impossible to overlook.
Xu Mo had always thought that "big boobs, no brain" was just a joke, a meme.
But in reality, there was a living, breathing example right in front of him.
No wonder...
He thought this way.
The fact that he and Xu Shi were siblings had long been deeply ingrained.
He had read novels, but he had forgotten most of them.
With his past and present lives combined,
Xu Mo only focused on how to follow the plot and what path to take.
Naturally, he didn't have time to mess around with these trivial matters.
After all, it wasn't important to him.
Xu Shi knew what Xu Mo was thinking and wanted to continue speaking.
Xu Mo placed his hand on her white, broad forehead,
directly interrupting Xu Shi's actions.
She looked stunned.
In less than half a minute,
Xu Mo pulled his hand back, "Strange, no fever. Why are you spouting nonsense?"
[Hehe... not biological siblings]
[Am I actually adopted?]
[Xu Shi isn't being honest!]
[If you want the inheritance, just tell me directly. All these assets will be yours, I won't take a penny. Why all the roundabout tactics?]
[Wait... maybe I really am adopted]
"Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining +1 personal charm."
Thinking seriously,
it wasn't entirely impossible.
Thinking about the Seven Wolves in the old man's hand,
Xu Mo felt a chill down his spine.
The old man and mom clearly favored Xu Shi more!
If Xu Shi hadn't mentioned it,
Xu Mo wouldn't have doubted his own identity.
Shocking! The villainous young master, me, was actually adopted?
"You jerk! That's not what I meant!"
Xu Shi's face turned red, Xu Mo, this old overthinker,
always came up with random thoughts.
If she didn't take action,
Xu Mo would keep overthinking.
Xu Shi's delicate hands reached for Xu Mo's collar.
From Xu Mo's perspective,
a pair of little arms stretched out towards him.
Halfway there,
it stopped.
Due to the height difference,
the big-busted little girl with short arms and legs couldn't reach.
Xu Mo breathed a sigh of relief, "You..."
Before he could finish,
Xu Shi jumped up, grabbing his collar.
Then she took the high ground!
A warm sensation came over him.
Xu Mo was utterly confused.
What the hell is this supposed to mean??
What shocked him even more was that,
Xu Shi didn't think this was enough!
She went for a French-style kiss.
Xu Mo internally exclaimed, "What the hell!"
And subconsciously wanted to back away.
But Xu Shi wouldn't let him go?
Don't underestimate Xu Shi's thin arms and legs.
Her strength was no joke.
Xu Mo was tough, sure,
but his strength clearly wasn't a match for Xu Shi's.
After all, Xu Shi focused her stats on two things:
strength and... other things.
At this moment, Xu Shi's mind was blank.
The emotions accumulated over two lifetimes
exploded at this moment.
In her previous life, she couldn't have him!
If she lost him in this life,
then she would have lived in vain again.
Her grip tightened involuntarily.
And Xu Mo suffered.
Due to lack of oxygen and confusion,
His face turned red and was suffused with a deep crimson.
What grudge or grievance was this?
He had no idea what he had done wrong.
Why did he have to suffer like this?
He flailed around, trying to reach out and tap Xu Shi's fragrant shoulder.
Come on, let's talk it out.
Actions speak louder than words.
Xu Shi, you're going too far!
Are you really trying to send me to the German orthopedic clinic?
In the chaos,
he touched the ultimate weapon.
A gift from Mother Nature.
Completely different from those artificially enhanced ones.
It was indeed... very nice.
But compared to these trivial matters,
Xu Mo thought his life was still the most important.
This was the stairwell.
Who knew when someone might show up.
If they were seen, it would be game over.
Xu Mo wanted to speak,
but he couldn't.
All he could manage were muffled sounds.
Xu Shi's eyes lit up.
As soon as Xu Mo spoke, the game was over!
The two remained at a standstill for a while!
Xu Mo fell into despair.
Until a voice sounded behind them.
"What are you two doing?"
The moment the voice rang out,
both of them shuddered.
It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over them.
Xu Mo: It's over!
Xu Shi: Damn it!!1 Someone ruined my good deed!
Both were terrified as they looked towards the source of the voice.
Xu Mo, in particular, was the most scared, his legs trembling.
If it weren't for the veteran actor buff from the system,
Xu Mo's facial expression would have been quite dramatic.
But even now, it wasn't exactly pretty.
Seeing who it was,
both their hearts, which had been in their throats, relaxed.
"Good morning, An Jie!"
Xu Shi smiled and waved her little arms in greeting.
If it weren't for the strand of saliva still hanging from the corner of her mouth,
she and Xu Mo
would have just accidentally bumped into each other.
"Good morning, Youyi..."
Xu Mo's mouth twitched.
The main heroine by the protagonist's side,
finding out that this villain had cheated on the protagonist,
would surely want to kill him?
Setting aside the faction issue,
being seen by the Dragon Queen in this situation,
Xu Mo would be instantly socially dead!
Even though it wasn't his fault,
it was still embarrassing.
And the issue of their identities was even more ridiculous.
"I asked what you two are doing?"
An Youyi repeated, still expressionless.
It was impossible to tell if she was angry
or if there were other emotions involved.
Xu Mo racked his brain,
trying to come up with a plausible excuse.
But in such a short time,
he couldn't think of one.
Xu Shi's thought process was obviously twice as fast as his!
"This is a friendly greeting from abroad!"
An Youyi blinked, tilting her head slightly.
She had been on many missions,
traveling to numerous countries.
This greeting was unheard of.
Not to say it didn't exist,
but it certainly wasn't that exaggerated!
Xu Mo's heart was racing!
Thump, thump.
Like the sound of a heavy drum being struck.
Xu Shi's eyelids twitched.
She had thought that explanation was flawless.
Well... flawless for An Youyi.
For others, it wouldn't be so easy to fool.
But no matter how many calculations she made,
she didn't account for Xu Mo's inner monologue.
If Xu Mo's inner thoughts blabbered on and on,
the two would continue to be socially dead on the spot!
Xu Shi's eyes had closed without her realizing it.
She couldn't bear to look!
(/▽╲)
Time ticked by minute by minute.
To Xu Shi's surprise, she didn't hear Xu Mo's inner thoughts.
What the hell!
She immediately gave Xu Mo an appreciative look!
His mentality had improved a lot.
He dared to face his fears.
Not giving his mind the chance to add unnecessary drama.
In fact,
Xu Mo's inner thoughts were no less dramatic.
It's just that Xu Shi and An Youyi couldn't hear them.
This was thanks to the system's "ding" yesterday,
which had helped him filter out elements unrelated to the plot advancement or those irrelevant things!
In any case, he himself wasn't clear about it.
An Youyi's gaze moved between the two faces.
After a long while, she nodded.
Looking at Xu Mo, she said,
"Come on, let's do the foreign friendly greeting."
An Youyi said this expressionlessly.
Her tone and body language
were all as usual.
Giving off a cute and adorable vibe.
The kind you could trick away with a lollipop.
But that was just a metaphor.
If any fool tried to lure her away with a lollipop,
they would definitely be beaten to a pulp on the spot.
Xu Mo and Xu Shi thought the problem was solved.
But then another bomb dropped!
As the main character,
Xu Mo's brain worked at lightning speed, coming up with a quick solution.
He blurted out,
"Uh... I haven't brushed my teeth."
"Oh, I don't mind."
Xu Mo: ......
Xu Shi: ·····
