The system couldn't help but exclaim: "How can you be so cowardly! Not at all like a typical overpowered protagonist! Not at all..."
The system didn't continue, probably because it was annoyed by his appearance.
Can Can had no idea what a "dragon-like protagonist" was. He said in a soft, sweet voice, "Brother Xitong, you've been so fierce lately."
"...I didn't." the system silently retorted.
Actually, you could still hear a hint of guilt in her words. She knew she was angry. Her uncle had been so close to them yesterday, but because Canbao couldn't recognize his family, anyone would be angry, right?
Can Can coaxed, "Okay, Brother Xi Tong, don't be angry anymore. Auntie said that children who get angry easily aren't good children."
"You do listen to that woman, don't you?" The system snorted. "Since you called me 'brother' today, I'll let yesterday's matter slide."

Just a step away from them, there were two girls dressed in evening gowns, their makeup exquisite, clearly meticulously done.
Wen Shuqiao nodded slightly: "Hello."
The original owner had memories of two people, who seemed to be her little followers who always followed her around. Their relationship wasn't particularly good or bad, but their families had project collaborations with the Su family.
