Si Jiu suddenly stood up, supported himself on the edge of the couch with one hand and turned his head to look over.
Shen Xinghe stood there tall and slender, wearing a black suit, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes. His eyes were long and narrow with slightly upturned corners, making him look a bit sharp and ruthless.
The baby fat that Sijiu had managed to cultivate on his face when he left had completely disappeared. Below his high nose bridge were thin lips wiping a faint smile, and below that was a perfectly shaped jawline...
His temperament still carries a hint of youthfulness, but more of a sharp edge that is waiting to be unleashed.
He seemed like a different person.
But when he saw Si Jiu's gaze, he immediately smiled at her.
Then, it seemed as if nothing had changed.
It seems that he is still that slightly introverted and well-behaved disciple.
Si Jiu seemed to be stunned for a long time, but in fact it was only a moment. The next moment, her face was covered with frost, which seemed to keep people away from her.
"You still remember to come back?"
The system secretly complained: "Didn't you say just last minute that you'd be nicer to your son when he came back?" Tsk tsk tsk... Daddy's mouth is such a lie.
"I was accidentally drawn into a secret realm and got trapped. I didn't mean to do that, Master, please don't be angry."
Sijiu blinked slowly.
I feel that Zaizai's attitude towards me is different from before.
If I have to say what’s different, it’s probably... more casual than before?
She suddenly felt a little happy about this discovery.
[Son, your brother must have realized the good things about home after he was away from home. He finally understood Dad's painstaking efforts, stopped being rebellious, and learned to be close to Dad.]
The system feels that since the daddy took the male protagonist as a child, his IQ has dropped rapidly.
You should know that just because I'm more casual with you than before doesn't necessarily mean I've become closer to you.
Or maybe... it's because he's capable now, so he doesn't need to be humble anymore, and he's not afraid of you anymore?
In other words... maybe they are here to counterattack?
Oh my god... I'm just a useless, useless AI. I don't know anything.
System: [Maybe.]
"Are you not hurt?"
Sijiu was delighted, but he still (thought he) maintained his persona very well, asking the question nonchalantly with a sarcastic and arrogant tone.
Shen Xinghe's eyes flickered with emotions that no one could easily understand, and his voice was filled with laughter, "I suffered a minor injury."
"Where does it hurt... cough... useless thing."
"But it's been fine for a long time." He stared at Si Jiu, not missing the subtle changes in her expression.
"I'm sorry to have worried Master."
"I am just afraid that you will lose my face."
"Oh. Really?"
Sijiu finally realized that this kid was a bit aggressive, whether it was his gaze, words, actions, or tone...
She raised her eyes and looked at Shen Xinghe, and then her face was covered by his bright and warm smile.
It seems... I haven't changed much! I seem to be more cheerful and outgoing than when I was a child?
"Master, I'm so busy trying to see you right away that I look a bit out of place. Could you please wait for me?"
The wine steward asked, "What for?"
"I'll take a shower and come back."
Sijiu: "What are you doing here?"
"I have a lot to say to Master, is that okay, Master?"
Si Jiu: "...Why are you talking so much? If you want to go, go ahead."
The boy looked at her relentlessly, "Can I still come?"
There was always a feeling that she had to ask him to come in person.
illusion?
But the cub who I haven't seen for many years is begging so much...
"Come if you want. Do you think I'm going to tie your legs with a rope?"
"I'll be back soon."
The boy said this, turned around and ran out quickly.
That back view looks like a silly and excited person.
The corners of Si Jiu's lips unconsciously rose, but halfway through, the young man suddenly stopped and turned back, catching Si Jiu laughing.
Sijiu: “……!”
"I forgot to salute my master." The boy blinked with an innocent expression.
Sijiu: "Get out!"
This time the boy really ran away quickly.
