Chapter 1770: Unlucky Heiress (37)
“It's fine,” Tang Guo said calmly. “Big Brother won't expose me. He might even come up with an excuse for me. He doesn't care about little things like this.”
Tang Kui merely asked with an indifferent expression, “It's so late. What are you squatting on the floor looking for, Guoguo?”
“A small ornament. It's very important, but I don't know where I dropped it.” Tang Guo answered naturally, without the slightest trace of dishonesty.
Tang Kui nodded and reached out to touch her forehead. “Did you drink too much tonight? You're looking for something without even turning on the light.”
【111: “Host, y-you're undermining her like this. Aren't you afraid your fake little sister will beat you to death?”】
System: 【Host, he's exposing you.】
【Tang Kui: “Didn't I already give her an excuse? I said she'd had too much to drink.”】
Tang Guo said, “Big Brother gave me an excuse. He said I was drunk.”
【111: “…”】
System: 【…”】
“Go back and rest. You can look for it tomorrow.” Tang Kui put a hand on Tang Guo's shoulder and gently guided her toward her room. “If it was lost inside the house, we'll definitely find it. Tomorrow I'll ask the housekeepers to help you search.”
“Big Brother's right. I really am a little muddled from drinking.” Tang Guo smiled, though her eyes were crystal clear. “Actually, Big Brother, you were so drunk earlier. You've sobered up pretty quickly.”
“That's how I am. No matter how much I drink, one nap and I'm clear-headed again.”
As though he hadn't noticed anything, Tang Kui wore a faint smile as he closed the door for her.
“Go to sleep.”
She really held grudges. That personality was quite similar to his. If he didn't remember being an only child, he'd suspect his parents had secretly hidden a younger sister somewhere.
Once the door closed, Tang Guo peacefully lay back down to sleep.
As Tang Kui passed Tang Yi's room, he glanced at the crack beneath the door.
“Three-One-One, have you figured out what that thing she put inside is?”
【111: “I can't analyze it. My level isn't high enough. I can only tell that it's an extremely advanced substance that affects the mind. However, I can confirm that it poses no harm to the body or spirit.”】
“Alright then, time to sleep.”
【111: “Host, aren't you going to take it out and see?”】
“I'm afraid if I do, my little sister will beat me.” Tang Kui curved his lips into a smile. “Tang Yi's pretty unlucky. How did she end up provoking such an extraordinary little sister?”
Eh?
111 simply couldn't understand.
Judging by everything, the two of them clearly knew each other was fake, yet they pretended they were biological siblings and didn't care in the slightest where the other had come from.
There even seemed to be a sense of cooperation between them.
In that case, Tang Yi really was unlucky.
Perhaps she had already used up all her good fortune.
After all, where in the world was there such a thing as obtaining benefits for free without effort?
【Host, you're right. Your biological brother really doesn't like meddling in other people's business. Judging from his tone, he even seems a little pleased by Tang Yi's predicament.】 The system recalled 111's words and said gleefully, 【Host, see? Even without a serial number, I'm much more capable than systems like 111 that belong to the establishment, right?】
“Mm. Tongzi, you're very capable.”
The system was delighted.
111 was just a useless system that only knew how to cling to powerful thighs.
Although it also relied on a powerful host, it was still better than 111.
So what if 111 belonged to the official system organization?
It still couldn't compare to a wild system like him.
As the saying went, true masters were hidden among the common people.
