Awakening Cannon Fodder 6
At night, Keyu lay on the bed in the guest room of the Ai family. Although she had been numbed by the abuse of men in her previous life and her heart was colder than the boss who had killed fish in RT-Mart for ten years, she was also a little unhappy when she learned that the Mu family had gone bankrupt.
The days of being a domineering young lady are over. I can no longer slap anyone I dislike. Living under someone else's roof is not pleasant. I don't even dare to have a second bowl of rice.
Moreover, compared to Ariel and her, the elders of this family obviously prefer her younger brother Xili and Mu Qingruo. Yu Wan has been very lazy recently, only showing up once every two or three days, and her tone is also listless. She is a little worried that the system is sick.
Tossing and turning.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
In the living room, Ariel was discussing something with his father. The two looked very similar, and the way they smoked cigars facing each other made people imagine a lot. Ariel blew out a round of smoke rings and said, "That's it, father, I decided to keep her with me." As a carefully trained young master of an aristocratic family, of course some words cannot be said too directly, such as when he was referring to Keyu.
For example, he also discovered that the daughter of the Mu family had some very rare supernatural powers. Although it had not been revealed yet, he would never be wrong. That supernatural power was the seed that the entire continent had been searching for for a long time, and its destructive power was not comparable to that of ordinary supernatural powers.
However, the Mu family members generally have low talents in supernatural powers. For hundreds of years, they have only been able to serve as medical soldiers and assistants on the battlefield, and also as logistics personnel. How could there be such a person who even he is afraid of?
The scenes of him and the girl appeared before his eyes. Even though Mu Qingruo had been occupying her for so long, she was still positive and cheerful. This was quite rare. He just wondered if she would be sad when she found out that he was just taking advantage of her talent...
Thinking of this, his heart trembled for no reason.
The feeling was so wonderful. It was just a passing touch like a dragonfly skimming the water, but it felt like a heavy blow to his heart, causing him to feel so much pain.
Old Master Ai had no idea what his son was thinking. He nodded and flicked the ash from his fingertips: "Go." After all, the eldest son was no less immature than the second son, so it was normal for him to have his own vision. There was a hint of the lion king's satisfaction in his eyes, and he believed that Ariel was capable of handling all of this.
【Why is Mu bitch still here? 】
[You're still wearing such a sexy outfit in someone else's house, but you're still not half as charming as Sister Yu...]
Seeing that it was her, Keyu's already depressed mood became even heavier. He slowly closed his eyes as if accepting his fate and scratched his hair hard.
"Would you like to eat?" Mu Qingruo brought a bowl of fruit. Although she hadn't spent much time with Keyu, she could sense that she wasn't very likable. Seeing the bowl of fruit almost overflowing, Keyu choked, "What are you giving it to me?"
Mu Qingruo: "You didn't even eat much for dinner..."
This was their first time at the Ai family's house, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little subtle. The old man kept asking questions, and she had to answer them. In the end, she only drank a small bowl of soup made from some unknown vegetable.
The fruit in the basin still had crystal clear water droplets on it, and its color was bright. Ke Yu forced himself to stuff a strawberry into his mouth. Seeing the expectant look on his face, he continued to force himself to say, "Hmm... not bad."
"Then have another apple." A big red apple was extended to the other side. There was a table next to the door. The former heroine looked around. Keyu was still in a daze. He quickly put down the basin and ran away like a little quail.
By the time Ke Yu reacted, the apple had already been eaten.
As soon as she arrived at the classroom, Keyu was still greeted with either amused or curious looks. She sat back down as if nothing had happened, took out her textbook and concentrated on preparing for the class. 022 soon arrived and sat down next to her excitedly: "How are they? Are the two brothers from the Ai family okay?" The popularity of these two characters has always been high, and some even asked for a 3/p. She was very confident.
However, of course one cannot be easily tempted by a high-class woman. But if you think about it from another perspective, this can also be considered a test for Ke Yu.
Keyu replied with an "um." When 022 showed that kind and somewhat weird smile again, the hand that was turning the page of the book suddenly trembled.
During lunch, Xili knocked over Keyu's plate, and the milk soaked into his already semi-transparent white shirt, causing his brothers to burst into laughter. Yu Wan finally reacted, "Host, do you want to beat him to death with one punch?" This man was even more annoying than Su Zhibai. She wanted to call out the two monsters to bite him to death.
022 didn't expect the system to be so rude right away: "This is just a romantic interest between a couple. It's boring if you make it too serious." Considering the considerable power the system held, she became more vigilant: "The main system requires you to cooperate with me, so before I release the plot points, you'd better not make any rash moves."
In the scene, Keyu is frantically looking at the girl next to him, asking if she can borrow his coat. The girl offers him the coat, but then withdraws it at Xili's ambiguous gaze. Keyu then remembers that her family members are under Grandpa Ai's command, holding relatively low positions, and that this relationship is naturally passed down through generations.
A group of people soon gathered around, seemingly trying to reconcile them but actually making things worse. Especially when someone mentioned Xili's first love who had passed away early, a ball of red fire suddenly ignited in his palm without warning, lighting up the entire hall in an instant. The man screamed before he could react.
He turned into a fireball and rolled on the ground. When the burnt and smelly black smoke dissipated, the man was lying unconscious on the ground in a messy posture, with half of his face gone.
The students around them covered their mouths and inhaled, feeling both fearful and shocked, yet also strangely accustomed to it.
"Strange Fire Talent..."
"How terrifying! The Ai family is completely filled with violence. Do they think they are so great just because they have the Holy Flame? They are a whole family of bad people."
"Keep your voice down."
The students who could enter this school all had good talents, at least B or A level, and were all the top talents in their respective families. But at this moment, they were all huddled together like ordinary people; the school workers didn't even dare to step forward to clean up the mess, for fear of embarrassing Young Master Xili.
"So, is the host going to have something happen with this person?" Yu Wan watched the entire thing with her chin propped up, questioning; 022 was actually Keyu's 'real mother', typing every word without a second thought: [Nonsense, my daughter deserves the best]
In the real scene, milk soaked through his shirt above the waist, and Keyu took a deep breath. 022, transformed into a passerby girl, never stopped, her mouth curled wildly until Xili left. The comments were also frantic:
[Xili: Sister-in-law, open the door, it’s me]
[Why can't this setting appear on other websites? Xili, you must kill Ke Yu.]
[Hehehe, after Xili successfully pursues his wife, would you consider having some milk/play?]
[Oh my god! I can’t even imagine how delicious this rice is.]
[Husband, write quickly. I will eat on my knees.]
022 was very proud. The people's eyes were really sharp.
Xili was not punished at all for what he did, let alone moral condemnation. He was still as powerful as ever in school, and there were always people following him when he went to the toilet. Of course, there were people in the barrage who disliked him and thought he was a psychopath, but they were all quickly reported and deleted for violations.
Yu Wan originally thought that the barrage environment had improved, but when he saw the screen full of "bitch" when Mu Qingruo appeared, he suddenly realized it.
She didn't know much about human swearing culture, nor had she studied its specific meaning in depth. She only knew that swearing in a live broadcast room would be reported. But now the screen was full of "bitch", which showed that this was certainly not an illegal word.
Yu Wan thought about it and realized that if this was a compliment, then the main system she respected was also a bitch.
What she didn't know was that the main system, which had finally managed to stabilize itself, heard all of this and its eyes went dark, and it almost fainted from anger again.
The Ai family's dinner was held as scheduled, grand and luxurious, just for Ariel's wedding.
The main system and 022 jointly announced the next task: something unspeakable will happen between the host and Xili tonight, and the enthusiasm of the barrage will reach a climax; only after that will the plot officially unfold: Xili misunderstands and hates Keyu, Ariel is forced to marry someone else, Keyu leaves the Ai family... and the two brothers chase their wives to the crematorium.
In short, this was a watershed moment. Considering Yu Wan's previous demonic behavior, the main system, terrified, arranged for 022's true form to be a guest at the dinner, keeping a close eye on Ke Yu's plot.
Every failure is a learning experience.
The Ai family manor was brightly lit, a scene of extravagance and extravagance. Knowing she was an outsider, Keyu hid in the guest room and slept. The door opened gently, and when she drowsily sat up, 022 was already at her bedside.
"What should I do?" Ke Yu was too sleepy to open her eyes, and she covered her head and fell asleep again: "Cannon fodder should live a contented life. If you don't do it properly, you will die more miserably." Ever since Yu Wan showed up, she never took the initiative to go to the Shura Field. She had lived a comfortable life for a long time, so naturally she didn't want to suffer anymore.
"No." 022 pulled him up again, suppressing her inexplicable anxiety. "But aren't you jealous? Ariel is so outstanding!" She felt annoyed when she thought of Ariel's childhood sweetheart. This character was originally designed to serve as a comparison for Keyu, but now she was extremely jealous. "Let's go."
If they had known that Ke Yu was so rebellious, Ariel and Xili would not have followed the character setting so much. They could have just written this childhood sweetheart to death.
Falling in love with a paper man is risky, but falling in love with someone you write yourself is even riskier!
Keyu shook his head honestly, looking like he hadn't heard what she said at all.
Three minutes later, Keyu appeared in a corner downstairs. This area was full of servants busy coming in and out, and no one was looking at him. Yu Wan was also sleepy, but under the pressure of the main system, he had to keep his eyes open and look for Xili.
Everywhere was filled with dignitaries chatting and laughing. Mu Qingruo did come once and asked if Keyu was feeling unwell, but was immediately driven away by 022. Just as the commentator was about to scold her, another comment caught her attention:
【Xili! It’s Xili! 】
Under the palace-style spiral staircase, an inconspicuous secret door slowly opened from the outside; two furtive servants seemed to jump in from the darkness, looked around, and then carried the drunk Xili into the house from the left and right.
Under the urging of 022 and Yu Wan, Keyu finally walked into a room on the second floor with him.
