They broke up without reason, or through emotional abuse, and ultimately they all chose to blame you.

So, my brother deserves to bear the sins of this world?

Now there's another rich young lady who seems to be extremely jealous and aggressive chasing after him.

The danger level continues to rise, which is truly worrying.

Bai Shimo was wearing men's slippers, which were too big, so she had to drag her feet as she walked, making a pattering sound on the ground.

As she placed the crab dishes she had brought back on the table, a sudden inspiration struck her—

Uh... she hasn't told her brother the reason why she's missing a pair of cloth slippers yet.

Bai Shimo looked toward the half-open bedroom door.

Xx

Bai Weiran froze in front of the open wardrobe in the bedroom.

The little girl in the closet was holding a crystal trophy. Her snow-white little feet were wearing the cloth slippers she was looking for, with a copy of "Zhuangzi" under her feet. She was huddled in the closet, looking timid and staring wide-eyed at him in fear, like a thief caught red-handed.

"........."

Bai Weiran closed the wardrobe in a second.

Where am I? What do I see? What was I supposed to do?

Oh right, I was looking for slippers. Did I open the door wrong?

Bai Weiran took a deep breath for two seconds and opened the wardrobe again.

The girl didn't disappear; she just changed her posture. Like a frightened kitten, she clung to a light blue sweatshirt beside her with both hands and tried to shrink deeper into the closet—still standing on the book "Zhuangzi".

What should have been a joyous reunion turned into a shock for Bai Weiran.

How did she end up in her own room again?

The phone is clearly on me—

And, damn it, how is he supposed to explain to his sister, who came looking for him, why there's a white-haired, red-eyed loli girl hidden in his closet?

How can he face his sister's suspicious gaze, wondering if he's a lolicon?

The sentence starts at ten years and can be as long as the death penalty.

"……elder brother?"

Upon hearing the call, Bai Weiran instantly half-closed the wardrobe, obscuring the loli girl's face with shadows, leaving only a sliver of light shining on her.

He quickly said something to Yu Mengmeng.

"Mengmeng, hide here for now, don't run around, and don't say anything. I'll come back in a bit, just wait."

He closed the wardrobe behind him, turned his back to her, and Bai Shimo appeared at the bedroom door, curiously peeking in.

"Brother, is there a problem?"

Bai Weiran leaned against the wardrobe, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"……No."

Bai Shimo slowly typed out a question mark.

The room is completely open at a glance, and the only place that seems like a safe haven is the wardrobe.

She just took a walk outside, so she's sure Mengmeng is still in this bedroom.

My brother must have seen Mengmeng, but he said there was no problem at all.

Oh wow, there's a problem even if there isn't.

Hey, you've got some braised chicken feet, haven't you? You've confessed without being asked, you really are the [Bai Weiran] that Mengmeng was talking about.

Knowing that Bai Weiran was only pretending to be calm, Bai Shimo rarely saw her brother so flustered, and a mischievous thought suddenly arose. She put her hands behind her back and walked over like a homeroom teacher making rounds.

"Hmm—? Really not?"

"No."

"Didn't you come looking for slippers? Didn't you find them?"

"It's not in the closet; I must have kept it somewhere else."

"Oh, that's strange. Brother never loses anything. It's already strange that he didn't put it in the shoe cabinet, and now he can't even find the wardrobe... Brother, did a thief break into your room?"

Bai Shimo circled Bai Weiran, who was leaning against the wardrobe, like a cheetah that had caught its prey.

Unaware of this, Bai Weiran was still struggling like a trapped beast.

"No, you're overthinking it. The security in my neighborhood is pretty good. There are no thieves. To err is human. I sometimes leave things behind like this."

"...Really? I don't believe it, brother. Move aside, let me help you look for it." Bai Shimo rolled up her sleeves, looking like a righteous little helper.

"Brother, don't worry, I'm good at finding things."

How could I let her see the things in this wardrobe?

Bai Weiran straightened up, took the initiative, turned his sister's shoulder and pushed her out.

"No, little kids shouldn't look into the things in an adult man's closet. Those who know, know."

"Oh? Brother, do you have some kind of lewd little prop hidden in your closet? Or some pornographic magazines... No way, no way, you're so out of touch. Who reads pornographic magazines these days? Everyone watches videos online!"

"...Everyone has different preferences, and the old-fashioned has its advantages."

Bai Shimo was laughing so hard her stomach was churning, but she had to keep her tone calm.

“That’s right. My brother is a single man. What’s wrong with him being a little lecherous at home? It’s fine. I understand. My parents will definitely understand too.”

...So you went home and told your parents, and announced it to the whole world, right?

Bai Weiran immediately realized that the biggest problem right now was not his image collapsing in front of his sister or parents.

Instead—Shi Mo said she was going to stay here tonight, and he had just agreed, but now Yu Mengmeng is in the closet, is he just going to let her stay there all night?

Can Yu Mengmeng's mischievous nature be contained? She might burst out at any moment, and how will he explain it to his sister then?

This is harder than fixing ten mystical bugs.

Chapter Twenty-Three: An Unexpected Reunion

It's impossible to be honest.

The idea that an app can travel the world is already absurd, and the initial consent form also included a user confidentiality clause.

The only option now is to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

“It’s rare for you to come all this way. It’s still early. Would you like to go for a walk somewhere?” he suggested.

My younger sister is too shrewd, and Yu Mengmeng is too boisterous. If they stay here together for even a minute longer, the chances of them being exposed will probably increase by five percent.

Bai Shimo thought to herself, "Oh!"

Bro, are you trying to lure us away from our prey?

We were raised by the same parents, so our logic is pretty much the same. You're trying to trick me!?

"It's already nine o'clock, brother. Who goes out at this hour?" she said righteously, plopping down on the two-seater sofa, hugging a cushion, and turning over.

"And you don't even consider that my lovely sister went through all that trouble to come see you, waited for you for most of the day, and then dragged me out to play at night. You're so inconsiderate, you stinky straight man!"

Bai Weiran's plan failed, so he had to abandon this path.

Being too eager to ask her out is suspicious and will only make her sister suspicious.

"That's true." He nodded calmly, casually glancing at his phone.

"I still have some work to do. Why don't you go take a shower first? Didn't you say you had something important to discuss with me today? I can listen to you after I'm done."

Bai Shimo hugged a cushion, which covered her lips. Her black hair was draped over the sofa. She looked at him from the side, her two slender legs bent and resting on the sofa armrests. Her curves were beautiful and exquisite. Bai Weiran could only marvel at how well his sister was born. Even lying down casually, she looked like a model posing for a photoshoot.

However, she had no interest in this, and commented: "I have no interest in using my looks to please people; I only want to be beautiful on my own."

He wanted to take advantage of the time while his sister was taking a shower to find a way to get Mengmeng out of the house.

Bai Shimo rolled her eyes and gave a sly smile.

"Okay, bro."

"You're busy, don't worry about me."

She sat up, her face obedient and docile.

"Oh right, I need to go get my pajamas; my suitcase is still in your room."

As Bai Shimo spoke, she ran inside with a thud, and soon came out with a change of clothes.

Bai Weiran watched her enter the bathroom and felt a sense of relief.

The bathroom door opened the next second, and Bai Weiran's heart tightened again.

With her hair down and dressed neatly, Bai Shimo peeked out and stuck her tongue out at him.

"Oh no! I forgot my towel."

She ran into the bedroom, talking happily and loudly inside.

"Oh, right, brother, I also brought you a surprise. Let me show it to you."

Bai Weiran found it amusing upon hearing this.

What kind of surprise do you want for the Mid-Autumn Festival? Perhaps the five-nut mooncake from your hometown?

He was only surprised, not pleased, because he never liked eating five-nut mooncakes.

When Bai Shimo led the white-haired, red-eyed girl out, his blood pressure dropped two degrees, and he froze.

Suddenly, a huge, abyssal crater appeared in the ground, and he was falling into it.

"Shimo, let me explain first..."

Don't rush to call the police. Let me explain first. I haven't broken the law.

"Brother, this is a surprise for you. Are you surprised?"
