"Sister, are you sure we're going to sneak out to find Brother Qin Huan?" Little Ruanruan followed behind Su Qianqian, watching her sister cautiously and fully armed as she slipped out of the hotel, as if she were going to meet someone.
Su Xixi turned around, pulled her sunglasses down a bit, and looked at Xiao Ruanruan with droopy eyelids.
"Little Ruanruan, why do you always do stupid things at crucial moments? That arrogant Su Lei wouldn't even let me say goodbye to the little mute. If he knew I wanted to go play with the little mute, would he let me leave the room?"
Little Ruanruan nodded in agreement, but her big eyes blinked and looked behind Su Qianqian. She raised her chin slightly and said, "Sister, although what you said makes a lot of sense, you've already been discovered."
Su Xixi turned around awkwardly and stiffly, only to see Su Lei standing behind her with a cold face, and Su Xiaowu, whose face was twitching from trying not to laugh.
When she turned around, Su Xiaowu couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
Then, holding her stomach with one hand and pointing at Su Xixi with the other, she said, "Xixi, are you stupid? You want to sneak out, and you're dressed so strangely. You're not trying to sneak out, you're doing performance art!"
Susie frowned and looked down at her outfit.
She wore a black trench coat and a large black scarf that covered most of her face. She also bought a pair of black sunglasses and a black top hat online to wear.
Isn't this the kind of outfit that secret agents in movies often wear when they make rendezvous?
How did it become performance art when it came to her?
Su Lei looked at Su Xixi with a stern face, "You want to go find Qin Huan?"
Under the intimidating gaze of Su Lei, Su Xixi smiled awkwardly but politely, "Yes, we've come all this way to the US, and he happens to be there too. We're all friends, so let's meet up and get together!"
“I’ll go with you,” Su Lei said indifferently.
"Hmm, it's okay if I don't go. We're not that close friends..." Su Qianqian said subconsciously when she heard Su Lei speak, but she only got halfway through her sentence before she suddenly realized what Su Lei was talking about. She looked up at Su Lei in shock, "You just said you were coming with me?"
"Yes." Su Lei nodded and walked out of the hotel.
Su Xixi was still standing there, not having reacted yet.
Su Xiaowu flicked her forehead, "Qianqian, are you stupid? Hurry up and go, or Lei'er will regret it later, and you can forget about going."
Su Xixi quickly grabbed Xiao Ruanruan and followed after them, her short legs wobbling along.
Fu Wen was already waiting for them in his car outside the hotel.
Su Xixi was still a little dazed while sitting in the car. After glancing at Su Lei, she leaned closer to Su Xiaowu and asked, "Little brother, did you tell Big Brother when we went to visit Qin Huan?"
“It wasn’t us,” Su Xiaowu corrected her. “It was Lei’er who went to the tyrant’s study alone and spoke to him.”
"Although the tyrant seems to have improved his temper a lot recently and is much easier to get along with, even remembering to bring me along when he goes out to play and watch Little Softie's competition, he is unpredictable and might take a dislike to me at any time."
Therefore, I'd better avoid going near him if possible, lest I just throw my life away for nothing.
Little Ruanruan leaned closer to her older sister, "Sister, why are you so afraid of Brother Su Lei now?"
Susie puffed out her chest. "Who said I'm afraid of him? I just don't bother arguing with him!"
"Oh~~~I see—" Little Softie responded meaningfully.
Looking at Su Lei, who was sitting upright, I felt that Su Lei was becoming more and more like the older brother. It's true that if you admire someone, you will unconsciously imitate them.
When Fu Wendi's car stopped, it was outside a building with a unique and cool design.
Susie tilted her head back and looked at the building, her mouth agape in surprise. "Are all esports club buildings this cool?"
Qin Huan saw Su Xixi's excited expression from afar, and a gentle smile unconsciously bloomed on his face.
She strode towards Su Xixi and Xiao Ruanruan.
However, he stood in front of Su Xixi, but hadn't even had a chance to speak yet.
Susie looked up at him with her little head tilted back and her brows furrowed. She said very seriously, "Big brother from Africa, you're blocking our way. Please move aside. We're going to be late to watch the game."
Qin Huan's smile froze, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
An African older brother?
Is he being called?
Qin Huan felt as if he had been stabbed in the chest.
Xiao Ruanruan, who had already recognized Qin Huan, was now laughing so hard she was doubled over, clutching her stomach.
Susie looked completely bewildered. "Little Softie, what are you laughing at?"
After laughing enough, Xiao Ruanruan tilted her head back, blinked her big, crystal-grape-like eyes, and carefully looked Qin Huan up and down, left and right, and asked, "Brother Qin Huan, does your club usually train on the equator? You've gotten so tanned in just two months."
"Brother Qin Huan?" Su Xixi turned to look at Qin Huan again, her eyes wide with shock as she blinked rapidly. "You're a little mute?"
She beckoned with her finger, "Squat down."
Qin Huan obediently squatted down, and Su Qianqian cupped Qin Huan's face in her small hands like she was holding a dog's head, then turned Qin Huan's face left and right to look at it.
Finally, with an incredulous look on his face, he said, "Are you really a little mute? I remember you used to be very fair-skinned, like a pretty boy. How come you look like this now, even when you're playing games?"
"Could it be that the computer radiation is too strong and has caused your genes to mutate?"
While talking to herself with a wild imagination, Su Xixi clicked her tongue and said, "It seems I really need to play with electronic devices less in the future, otherwise you'll look too ugly if you get as dark as you."
Qin Huan: ...
It felt like another knife had been plunged into my heart.
I still vividly remember the little girl saying she didn't like pretty boys.
So during this time, no matter how busy he was with training, he insisted on getting a tan, and now...
The little girl said he was an African brother and that he was ugly!
Su Lei looked at Qin Huan, his expression softening slightly. It seemed that coming today was the right thing to do. Qin Huan had tanned himself so dark that Qianqian shouldn't be bewitched by him.
(I was revising the earlier draft yesterday because some of the sweet scenes were deemed sexually suggestive by the censors and required modification. This is also why Gu Chen can't appear on screen. *crying and laughing*)
