Chapter 6 Mom told you not to look back (6)
But if you don't do your homework, you have to keep studying.
She enjoys making money, but she also feels tired. Caught between a rock and a hard place, Lin Chujiu gave a forced smile.
When her mother saw Lin Chujiu's troubled expression, her fat cheeks bulged out in a strange way as she laughed.
She patted her shoulder reassuringly and said, "I'll go and call your brother over so you can do it together."
Lin Chujiu let out a puzzled "Ah," somewhat confused as to why her brother had to do it with her.
But when she saw her brother's room, she instantly understood.
The mother's large hands slammed against the brother's simple door several times, making the already shaky door rattle loudly!
Without waiting for her brother to open the door, Mom suddenly pushed it open:
"You brat, get up right now! You're not even up as early as your sister, aren't you ashamed?!"
A burst of laughter immediately erupted in the live stream room.
[Hahahaha, this is just like how my dad pranked my brother!]
As expected, the older brother has the lowest status in the family.
This mother really enjoys watching; she'll actually step in when needed.
How could she treat her son like this? He's the one who will carry on her husband's family line; won't she have to rely on him when she's old?
[Why is she so smug about someone who's not even her heir? Why is she so good to him?]
Jiang Chaoyu, who was on the bed, was not angry at being disturbed. She simply turned her phone over and glanced at her mother indifferently.
He must be looking at something he doesn't want them to see, otherwise why wouldn't he let them see it?
Lin Chujiu thought mischievously.
Lin Chujiu noticed that her brother's room was much simpler than hers, with only whitewashed walls, a bed, and a chair, looking extremely shabby.
The only decoration inside was the wall at the back covered with certificates of merit.
Lin Chujiu couldn't help but want to laugh. She thought through all the sad things that had happened recently before she managed to suppress her laughter.
Stop laughing!
But the certificates on the back made her very envious.
"Hurry up and go do your homework with your sister!"
Jiang Chaoyu gave Lin Chujiu a cold look; he had just seen her smile.
Lin Chujiu noticed her brother's frightening gaze and immediately lowered her head, like a quail.
I've already begged for forgiveness.
Jiang Chaoyu nodded to his mother, picked up two books from the chair, walked over to Lin Chujiu, and gestured with his chin towards her.
"Let's do it together."
His voice was clear and crisp. Lin Chujiu was a little confused when she heard it, but her body reacted instinctively and led him to her room, giving him half a table.
Jiang Chaoyu looked at Lin Chujiu's room and fell silent.
Actually, Lin Chujiu's room wasn't particularly luxurious; it could only be described as cozy and pretty, with just a few more pieces of furniture than Jiang Chaoyu's room.
But without comparison, there is no harm.
Lin Chujiu looked timidly at Jiang Chaoyu's somewhat gloomy expression and dared not speak.
Although the rules stated that she could ask her brother for help if she had any difficulties, Lin Chujiu still felt that her brother was very fierce.
That's scary.
Lin Chujiu thought to herself.
Outside, Mom saw the two of them sit down and looked satisfied. "Mom's going to slaughter a pig. You two stay home and do your homework."
She became excited when the topic of slaughtering pigs came up, her pale face contorting unnaturally.
It looks extremely strange.
After their mother left, Lin Chujiu and her brother looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
Although Jiang Chaoyu was defined as the "older brother" when he entered the instance, he did not have the memory of the older brother, and he did not know what to do now.
Fortunately, Lin Chujiu was educated. She looked through her sister's things and found her class schedule and homework.
She took out a book called "The Study of Ghost Stories" and was about to start studying according to the schedule when she noticed that her brother next to her was staring at her without moving.
Lin Chujiu responded with a puzzled "Hmm?"
Upon hearing her voice, her brother seemed to awaken from a dream. He pulled out an identical copy of "The Study of Ghost Stories" from among the books he had taken out, pretended to open it, and began to "study" it as well.
Lin Chujiu: Why does he seem more like a gamer than I am?
Lin Chujiu opened the book and was overjoyed to find that this book, "The Study of Strange Tales," mostly recorded the habits and weaknesses of the bizarre creatures in the world of horror.
99.9% perfect, such a rare find!
Lin Chujiu grinned foolishly and couldn't wait to start learning.
Jiang Chaoyu originally wanted to ask Lin Chujiu if he had a pen and if he could lend him one.
But seeing Lin Chujiu's pretty face intently staring at the book, her expression serious, he couldn't help but stop talking.
Never mind, I won't bother her anymore.
————
Before entering the entertainment industry, Lin Chujiu was a top student. Although studying was painful for her, it wasn't difficult.
Moreover, this book, "Strange Tales," was related to her life and was much more interesting than math and physics. Once Lin Chujiu got into the study, she became very enthusiastic and even studied for two hours at a time.
Two hours later, she suddenly came to her senses and realized that she was a little tired. She stretched and decided to take a break.
Jiang Chaoyu originally wanted to borrow a pen from Lin Chujiu when she was resting, but found that Lin Chujiu was already engrossed in studying.
He waited for a long time, and finally saw Lin Chujiu stretching. He finally had his chance.
He tried to imitate his mother's hesitant call of "Jiu Jiu," but it felt a little awkward.
When Lin Chujiu heard him call her name, her nerves tensed up instantly. Although this older brother was a strange character in the rules, he was still strange. If she wasn't careful, she would be dead!
Lin Chujiu, caught up in the tension, didn't notice Jiang Chaoyu's somewhat awkward expression and intimate way of addressing her, but the viewers in the live stream did.
[Holy crap, did you hear that guy call me "Jiu Jiu"? His voice is so soothing and charming!]
【Aaaaaah, I'm going crazy! I want to have my husband's babies with my ears!!!】
[My goodness, it's been so long since I've seen such handsome men and beautiful women in a horror live stream, it's so hard to choose!]
【What's so hard about choosing? My husband is on the left, and my wife is on the right, isn't that enough?】
[Upstairs, wake him up by urinating on him.]
Am I the only one who thinks Jiu Jiu and her brother are a great couple?
[Big Socks, you're not alone]
But they are siblings!
[What's wrong with siblings? It's just a charade in the horror world, feel free to ship them.]
What? My husband and my daughter?! Don't torture me like this!
Lin Chujiu looked at her brother cautiously, her eyes asking him with suspicion what was wrong.
From Jiang Chaoyu's perspective, Lin Chujiu's soft, white face looked up like a kitten looking at its owner, and her big, bright eyes were like a kitten that had just arrived at its new home cautiously looking at its owner, making people feel sorry for her involuntarily. It would be a huge sin not to offer her the best dried fish in the world with both hands.
Jiang Chaoyu's heart skipped a beat, and her face instantly flushed red. How could there be such a cute girl?
Has he been away from the world for too long? How come human gamers these days are all so adorable?
Jiang Chaoyu stiffly turned his face away, not wanting Lin Chujiu to see his reddened ears, and said, "It's nothing."
Lin Chujiu nodded as if she understood, then obediently lowered her head to do her own thing.
Right where neither Lin Chujiu nor the viewers in the live stream could see—
Jiang Chaoyu's pale skin had an unnatural blush, like a lotus flower blooming on a thousand-year-old snow-capped mountain, a beautiful, decadent color.
Unfortunately, no one was fortunate enough to witness all of this.
Lin Chujiu continued to study the book "Strange Tales" diligently. By the time she was too tired to continue reading, it was already six o'clock in the evening.
Lin Chujiu stretched, only to find that Jiang Chaoyu had already left.
