[The Spoiler has ended. The host will regain her consciousness in 3…2…1…]
"I'm going to save my three brothers."
It was the first thing that Ji Yunhe said after she opened her eyes and jumped out of her bed.
The system had something else to say.
[Err, before that, please return to the Academy and solidify your position as the number one bully. Host, you're close to being dethroned.]
Ji Yunhe: "..." What exactly was this stupid novel going about?
[Host, after you messed with your three brothers, you lost consciousness and stayed in bed for the entire day. Just this morning, the Second Brother came in to check on your pulse and deemed you perfectly fine, therefore urging you to return to the Academy and make up for your horrible attendance.]
"Why do I have to make up for my attendance? My family is rich. Didn't they usually deal with these things by donating a building or two in novels?"
Ji Yunhe didn't want to go to the Academy. That gathering place of the main leads would just be another excuse of a battlefield for guns and gunpowder to be exchanged.
Why would she, a villainess who was destined to be ruined from the aftermath, act the fool and engage in this crossfire that could've been easily avoided by staying home?
[First of all, your brothers had donated enough buildings for you to enter the academy with a prestigious admission. Any more buildings and the academy might as well gobble up the entire street across theirs!]
[Second of all, Host, this is very serious. Your position as the main villainess has been threatened by some third-rate rolling stones! Are you going to take this humiliation lying down on your face?]
"I will." Ji Yunhe didn't even bat her eyelids as she said this. The system was rendered speechless.
[Host, that third-rate rolling stone is exactly your non-blood-related sister, Ji Manman.]
"Ji Manman!" Ji Yunhe immediately rose to her feet as if she had just been shot with chicken blood, her eyes burning with resentment. "Wait for me, I'm going to shred her to pieces! How dare she step over me?"
No matter what, it wasn't easy for a former nobody like Ji Yunhe to rise into the position of the main villainess of the story. Though without a good end, relevance still mattered especially when it's between her and that abominable Ji Manman.
Looking at the fired-up Ji Yunhe, the system was very proud of its competent self. The system hoped that its boss could see this good side of it and give it a raise.
After Ji Yunhe dressed herself and got ready for school, she checked the time and hurried down the stairs. Her three brothers were waiting for her at the dining table.
"Yunyun, come here and have some breakfast." It was the gentle second brother Mo Yuning who had opened his mouth first, urging her to take a seat.
Beside him, Mo Xinhuai dropped his chopsticks and waved his hand with a radiant smile, "Good Morning, Yunyun!"
"Good Morning, Brothers." Ji Yunhe returned him an awkward smile. She took the seat beside Mo Xinhuai and moved her sight to the silent Big Brother who was seated on the family's head seat.
Mo Xingchen was slowly sipping on his porridge whilst reading his confidential documents, not sparing her a glance as if silently expressing that he hadn't forgiven her for yesterday; however, Ji Yunhe caught him sneaking a peek at her every now and then.
Recalling the Big Brother's ending, Ji Yunhe suddenly felt melancholic and lost her appetite. She dropped her spoon and, noticing the shift in her mood, Mo Yuning's heart nearly stopped.
"Yunyun, is the food not to your liking?"
Mo Yuning's forlorn voice hung in the air, attracting the other two brothers' attention. Today's menu was especially prepared by Mo Yuning.
To accommodate their sickly little sister who had just recovered from her sickness, Mo Yuning had deliberately prepared for the meal to be both sumptuous and nutritious. But, everything would be pointless if Ji Yunhe had no appetite to eat.
[Ahhh, Host! How dare you! How dare you make my Idol, my Male God the Second Brother cry?? Quick, admit that the problem is in you and not him! The Second Brother is the best! I love the Second Brother!]
Ji Yunhe nearly jumped out of her seat at the system's sudden agitation. On the other hand, Mo Xinhuai thought that Mo Yuning's worry was justified.
He set down his spoon and reprimanded Mo Yuning, "Second Brother, I told you that the menu wasn't suitable. Why would a perfectly healthy person eat this kind of bland food meant for the sick? Yunyun had eaten more than enough of that."
"If I have to say, why don't we order some takeouts like fried chicken and pizza? Didn't we do exactly that last month to celebrate my release from the hospital?"
Mo Yuning shot him a displeased frown, "Yunyun is different from you, a brute. How can we casually treat her condition like that? Just admit that you're the one who's salivating over those junk foods!"
"Wow, Second Brother. That's harsh of you! How can you call your one and only cute little brother a brute?! And also, what do you mean I'm the one who enjoys them? Wasn't you the one who finished the leftover three pizzas I kept in the refrigerator?" Mo Xinhuai shot back with equal displeasure.
Exposed, Mo Yuning was further enraged. "Why you brat! I'm your elder brother, no matter what I say, I'm the one in the right!"
Mo Xinhuai rose from his seat, pointing fingers at Mo Yuning. Mo Yuning didn't take that lying down. He fought back with equal force.
With just a few exchanges, the once peaceful breakfast had escalated into a full-blown battlefield, with Ji Yunhe and Mo Xingchen being the calm and unaffected passersby. Ji Yunhe looked at the lively scene with overflowing warmth, never feeling this loved nor accepted before.
She glanced at Mo Xingchen with shining glass-like eyes, "Big Brother, you've worked hard. Yunhe is sorry for being mentally-deranged and troubling my brothers every now and then. From now on, Yunhe promises to be a good girl. Yunhe will definitely make the family proud!"
At her heartfelt speech, the table suddenly grew silent.
Mo Xingchen merely looked at her without the slightest change of expression and lowered his head to fiddle with his phone.
Three seconds later, Ji Yunhe's phone let out a beep. She took it out and saw that she had received a notification from her bank.
[You have just received 1,000,000 RMB from XXX.]
Ji Yunhe shot Mo Xingchen a questioning look.
Mo Xingchen waved his hand, the five golden rings fitting each finger nearly blinding her dog eyes: "Say no more. I've transferred the money to your account."
Realizing her intention, the other two brothers were relieved and nodded to themselves.
Ji Yunhe: "…" But Big Brother, I'm being sincere with my words…. I'm not doing it for the transfer… really… thank you for the money though…
System: Host, you're very blessed. The system is jealous. The system wants to change male idols…
