Mo Chenyi stared wide-eyed at his good buddy spouting nonsense! Holy crap! He's beyond saving! Mo Chenyi shifted his butt back a little.

Su Ran leaned back in the booth sofa, looking at Su Chen who was lying on the floor swearing, her face darkening.

Su Chen didn't hear a reply, only the noisy music around him, but what was his good buddy doing?

He looked up at Mo Chenyi's direction, and seeing how far away Mo Chenyi was, he thought, "Damn it, why is Mo Chenyi so far away from me? Who kicked me? I'll beat him to death if I find out!"

Mo Chenyi looked at Su Chen with a lifeless expression, his eyebrows almost twitching from raising them, but Su Chen still didn't turn around.

Su Chen looked at Mo Chenyi, who kept raising his eyebrows, and asked, "Are you out of your mind, kid?"

Mo Chenyi's lips twitched. He had kindly helped him, but the man didn't appreciate it!

Su Chen was about to stand up, leaning on the table for support, when a force came from behind and he fell headfirst into Mo Chenyi's arms.

"Damn! Which kid kicked me again...!" Su Chen said as he turned around, but before he could finish speaking, he saw his older sister with a bad expression.

Su Chen: Help me! Help me!

Ignoring the pain in his back, Su Chen immediately stood up, timidly saying, "Sister..."

Su Ran looked at Su Chen with a displeased expression and said mockingly, "You know how to call me 'sister' now? Not that kid anymore?"

"I dare not." Su Chen's head was almost touching the ground.

Su Ran raised her voice a few decibels, "You don't dare? Su Chen, you've got some nerve, running off to a bar without a word? Your temper's gotten worse, huh? You're always swearing, what? Didn't you learn anything in your nine years of compulsory education? Should I spend some money to send you, who's about to take the college entrance exam, back for a refresher course?"

Su Chen hurriedly explained, "I didn't, sister... I... I..."

Su Ran sat on the sofa and looked at Su Chen. "Take your time. I want to see why I can see you under the moonlight at this hour."

"Sister, I actually... I actually..." Su Chen frantically searched for an excuse in his mind, but couldn't find one that made sense.

Su Ran looked exhausted. "Su Chen, do you even realize you're taking the college entrance exam? Do you know that, given your personality, you can't afford to slack off on your grades?"

"Can't you wait until after the college entrance exam to play? If you continue like this, your ten years of hard study will have to pay the price for your playfulness."

Su Ran rubbed her temples. Su Chen's intelligence was the result of hard work. She was the only elder in the family, and he had to be responsible for himself, and she had to be responsible for him.

Su Chen lowered his head and remained silent, only muttering, "Sister, I'm sorry."

Su Ran glanced at the time on her phone and said in a bad mood, "Get out here."

Su Ran turned and left immediately.

Su Chen lowered his head, and Mo Chenyi didn't say anything, but gently patted his shoulder.

Su Ran left the Moonlight. By now, it was completely dark, but it was still raining. Many people had entered the Moonlight. Su Ran walked toward an open space and leaned against the wall.

She took out a pack of women's cigarettes from her bag, put it in her mouth, and looked at Su Chen who was coming over. Su Ran put her phone back in her bag and just kept the cigarette in her mouth.

Su Chen walked over with his head down. There were very few people around. An Jing became anxious and said, "Sister, why did you come to Moonlight?"

Su Ran looked up at Su Chen, "Su Chen, now when you ask me, explain to me why you ran away from school, and why you did it under the moonlight."

After thinking it over again and again, Su Chen finally told the truth, "I was under too much pressure, and then my friend asked me to come out and relax, so I climbed over the wall to get out."

Su Ran held a cigarette between her fingers. "Su Chen, I've said it before: you need to focus all your attention on the college entrance exam. How many times has this happened now?"

"I'm sorry, sister, I won't do it again next time."

Su Ran remained calm and composed, while Su Chen remained silent.

Su Chen was terrified by Su Ran's gaze, his legs trembling uncontrollably, and he almost knelt down before her.

"Su Chen".

"Here!" Upon hearing his name called, Su Chen straightened up, ready to await his fate.

You'll be 18 soon.

Su Ran only said that one sentence and didn't bother to say anything else, looking at Su Chen, who was 186 cm tall in front of her.

He used to be so small, he would just hug my legs and call me "sister" in a soft, sweet voice. Now he's grown so much taller than me.

Su Chen froze, speechless.

Su Ran shook her head. Su Chen was no longer a child, and she couldn't discipline him in the same way as before.

"Su Chen, I'm too lazy to say anything more. I just hope you can get into a good university, because that's also your parents' last wish."

Su Chen's face turned pale, and his upright body suddenly collapsed. How could he not know that this was his parents' last wish? It was probably because of this that his older sister was willing to take care of him.

Su Ran didn't know what Su Chen was feeling right now, and she knew that boys were going through a rebellious phase. She was getting a little tired of talking about it, but no matter what, he had to focus on the college entrance exam recently.

After speaking, Su Ran turned and left.

Su Chen looked up at her, then lowered his raised hand, but shouted loudly in that direction, "Sis, smoking is bad for your health!"

Su Ran paused for a moment, then chuckled and continued walking forward.

Uncle Lin had received advance notice and was waiting outside. When he saw the young lady arrive, he quickly got out of the car and opened the door.

Su Ran handed the umbrella to Uncle Lin, then got into the car and closed her eyes to rest. Tonight's events had been too troublesome.

Back in her room, Su Ran rubbed the bandages for a while before washing up and lying in bed.

Su Ran's mind went blank.

After their parents passed away, the two relied on each other for survival. As the older sister, she naturally stood up and took the lead. She was also quite strict with Su Chen, and would usually hit him when he was young and disobedient.

Therefore, Su Chen wasn't particularly close to him.

Su Ran sighed softly.

On the other side.

For a system, it is the most direct and clear way to observe and detect the host's emotional fluctuations. Originally, as a system, it would not be affected by the host's emotional fluctuations.

The system is checking its own data, but the data shows that everything is normal. It seems that I will have to go to the main god to fix it. The system data is probably outdated and needs to be updated.

Sigh~

I really miss my wife.

How long will this mission take?! I need to finish the communications report and run away immediately, otherwise the main god will catch me and throw me another easy mission.

After thinking this through, the system temporarily severed the connection with the host. After all, both the host and the system have independent spaces and have the right to punish each other for seeing things they shouldn't see or forcibly probing each other's memories.

Su Ran didn't think too much about anything else. She had very few classes tomorrow, as senior students rarely had classes and were mostly doing internships or work outside.

Putting her worries aside, Su Ran fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning.

Su Ran sat in a chair, ready to enjoy the breakfast prepared by Aunt Zhao.

[This is the current check-in location. Would you like to check in now?]

Su Ran stopped holding her chopsticks. "Sign in."

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully checking in! You are hereby rewarded with Shanghai's newest landmark building—the Ice Crystal Palace!]
