Chapter 28: Hello, 911?

“Does he even consider me his sister!? It’s not like he’s the only one living at home, this is really embarrassing, okay…” Su Xiao Zi sighed heavily, a hint of helplessness in her voice.

She extended two slender fingers, carefully picking up the underwear from the floor, then frowned and tossed it inside the door.

‘This is unbearable!’

This reminded her of the times she occasionally heard a girl’s voice from her brother’s room. He must be playing those games with girls who wore no clothes again, he was a monster of desires!

Every time Su Xiao Zi stood outside the door, wanting to speak but holding back, then wanting to speak again, she simply didn’t know where to begin her complaints.

Even more outrageous, school had just ended for the holidays, and her brother took off his pants at the entryway as soon as he got home!

‘Hey! Is it really necessary? Would it kill him to wait a few seconds!? Any sister in the world, seeing a scene like this, would probably think their brother was beyond saving.’

“I need to have a serious talk with him…”

Su Xiao Zi muttered, then slammed the door shut, put on her slippers, casually hung her school bag on the dining chair, and walked straight to the living room.

Their parents weren’t home, so someone had to manage her brother and give him some education.

Though a sister giving her brother that kind of education sounded strange, even a bit unspeakable.

But Su Xiao Zi knew very well that the situation was serious enough to warrant intervention. She wanted her brother to establish correct values and develop healthy living habits, otherwise, if he continued like this every day, he would eventually become a useless shut-in!

“Hoo—Bro, I’m home!” Su Xiao Zi stood in the living room, her voice full of exasperation.

A long while passed, with no response.

She frowned and walked to Su Mu Zhe’s bedroom door. The door was tightly shut. Her brother was clearly home, yet he was pretending not to hear, obviously up to something unspeakable inside!

Su Xiao Zi was furious. She raised her index finger and knocked heavily on the door, scolding: “Stop! Su Mu Zhe, come out immediately! I need to have a serious talk with you about all your issues!”

‘Honestly, he doesn’t want to study during the holidays, but he could at least go play basketball with his classmates! He even participated in the school basketball competition before! Or, he could accompany her shopping, that would be fine too. Staying cooped up at home all day, it’s terribly gloomy!’

Su Xiao Zi waited patiently by the door.

But ten seconds passed, and there was still no sound from the room. Her mouth twitched, thinking: ‘Good heavens, Big Brother is completely out of control now, he even dares to ignore his sister’s words. This month’s allowance is confiscated!’

“Bang bang!” She knocked on the door twice with force, the dull thuds venting her current mood.

“I’ll count to three. If you don’t open the door, I’m coming straight in! I knocked first this time, so if you don’t want me to see anything I shouldn’t, then be sensible and open the door yourself!”

“Three— ” Su Xiao Zi deliberately drew out the sound, giving her brother a bit of face and a little more time.

“Two…” Still no movement.

She had already placed her hand on the doorknob.

At this moment, Su Mu Zhe in the room wasn’t absent; rather, she instinctively wanted to find a closet to hide in.

‘Why did she want to hide? She couldn’t explain it herself; it was just an instinctive reaction.’

Facing her sister, she was unusually terrified, her heartbeat clearly audible. She knew very well that she absolutely couldn’t let her sister see her in her current state, but there was no other way; she had to explain everything to her sister. This was unavoidable.

“One!” Time was up.

Su Xiao Zi gritted her silver teeth, angrily twisted the doorknob, and pushed the door open.

“Su Mu Zhe! You—”

Whoosh—!

The door was abruptly pushed open, bringing a gust of wind into the room.

Su Xiao Zi was about to start scolding, but her gaze instantly froze.

Before her eyes…

On Su Mu Zhe’s large bed sat a dazed, wide-eyed little loli. She was clearly startled by the sudden intrusion, her already pale face growing even whiter, with an exaggeratedly long ahoge (cowlick) sticking up from her head.

The air seemed to freeze.

The two stared at each other, big eyes meeting small eyes. After a few seconds of silence, Su Xiao Zi wordlessly slammed the door shut with a “pat.”

Immediately afterward, her voice came from outside the door, on the phone—

– “Hello? Is this 911?”
