Chapter 79: I killed you, you stinky little five!

~7 min read 1,310 words

Feng Xuanbo's servant came in and tidied up; after finishing, he stood up again and carefully examined Sui Sui.

After Sui Sui emphasized a point, she snuggled up beside Feng Xuanrui and didn't say much more.

Feng Xuanbin kept reminding from behind: "Really, little sister, you're especially cute—I've touched you before!"

Feng Xuanbo's face darkened upon hearing that; he turned his head and glared at Feng Xuanbin: "Where did you touch? Is a young lady's body something you can just touch? Didn't your teacher teach you propriety?"

Feng Xuanbin looked bewildered at being shouted at: "... Huh? Even touching the head is not allowed?"

He actually wanted to hold hands, but Sixth Brother wouldn't allow it!

It's all Sixth Brother's fault!

Sui Sui likewise looked at him bewildered, not understanding what was wrong with touching her a little.

Education on the differences between men and women will likely need to continue for a while longer, Liu Dafu.

Young children are too small to have a concrete concept of these matters.

As for Sui Sui now, she hasn't yet learned all the many things between men and women that need to be avoided.

Feng Xuanbo thought, Little Seven is just an idiot.

Little Six calls him Seven Stupid, and it's truly not wronging him.

Too lazy to bother with that little idiot, Feng Xuanbo quickly took two steps, came before Sui Sui, raised his hand and lightly touched the air above her head: "Your hair... where did it go?"

Sui Sui followed the direction of his hand, lifted her head to look, met Feng Xuanbo's puzzled gaze, first let out a soft ah, then turned her head to look outside: "Grandpa Liu shaved it."

Speaking of this, Sui Sui raised her chin somewhat proudly: "Grandpa Liu said, the hair that grows back will be the blackest and shiniest!"

Upon hearing it was Liu Dafu, Feng Xuanbo couldn't find words.

Liu Dafu's medical skill needs no doubt.

That's right...

Looking at this lovely little girl without hair, it really makes one feel uneasy.

Although Feng Xuanbo is young, he still thinks quite a lot.

Already from Sui Sui's shaved hair, he imagined her tragic past.

Thinking of this little girl's pitiable state, Feng Xuanbo let out a soft sigh, bent down, and gently asked Sui Sui: "Are you called Sui Sui?"

Sui Sui nodded obediently.

A pair of eyes sparkling like stars made one's heart go soft.

Feng Xuanbo couldn't help but reach out again; before actually touching Sui Sui, he politely asked: "May Fifth Brother touch your head a little?"

Hearing him ask that, Sui Sui first nodded, then shook her head.

Feng Xuanbo's hand was almost reaching out when he saw the little girl shake her head, and he wondered, somewhat puzzled: "Is it that you don't want to?"

Although he felt a bit disappointed, Feng Xuanbo thought that if it was a pitiful child, he shouldn't force it.

She has suffered so much before; let her be, what's wrong with that?

Feng Xuanbo's friendly attitude made Sui Sui feel kindness.

Seeing his hand about to withdraw, Sui Sui whispered an explanation: "I've applied medicine on my head; if you touch it, you might get some medicinal smell on you."

The medicine Sui Sui has been taking lately is all bitter and unpleasant-smelling.

Although Grandpa Liu keeps saying that the medicine applied to the head actually has no odd smell.

But Sui Sui still fears others will despise her.

Hearing Sui Sui say that, Feng Xuanbo froze for a moment.

After reacting, he burst out laughing: "Really, what a lovely little child."

While speaking, Feng Xuanbo's hand had already reached out and touched Sui Sui's crown.

The newly grown hair is a bit prickly.

Feng Xuanbo doesn't mind it; he just finds it amazing.

Maybe it's because he's never shaved before, so he's curious.

He touched it again and again, from front to back, then from back to side, and in passing also ruffled Sui Sui's two little ears.

Sui Sui doesn't feel that there's anything wrong with it.

As long as it's not malicious, everything else is fine.

However, Feng Xuanrui couldn't stand watching any longer; he drew a sharp breath, then reached out and lightly pulled Feng Xuanbo: "Enough already—you're making her hair not grow; you take responsibility for that!"

Upon hearing that, Feng Xuanbo thought seriously for a moment, then solemnly nodded: "That's fine."

Upon his reply, Feng Xuanrui's face darkened immediately; he grabbed Sui Sui and, with a stern face, said: "Sui Sui, only older brothers are the best; don't believe what others say—they're all bad eggs!"

While speaking, he glanced at Feng Xuanbo still laughing, then continued: "Some people may look pleasant when they smile, but their hearts are thoroughly rotten."

That statement amounted to calling him out on the spot.

Feng Xuanbo wasn't angry either; he just smiled and said: "Oh dear, my head hurts—perhaps my old injury has flared up again."

Feng Xuanbo said while rubbing his head, then flopped back onto the small couch.

Feng Xuanrui stood where he was, his face alternating between dark and pale.

Finally he couldn't hold back, baring his teeth as he asked: "Are you actually better or not?"

Back then the blow was pretty severe, but it's been over a month now—still not healed?

What kind of head is this?

Is it made of paper?

Feng Xuanbo felt no guilt at all, leaning on the couch and chuckling: "See, even the teacher granted me leave—so it must still be serious; a cracked head doesn't heal that easily."

Halfway through speaking, Feng Xuanbo's eyes shifted and landed on Sui Sui: "Unless, there's a little sister staying by my side."

Feng Xuanrui:..

If it weren't for the bandages still wrapped around his head, Feng Xuanrui felt he would certainly step forward and give him two solid punches.

Seeing Feng Xuanrui's angry-but-silent expression, Feng Xuanbo felt……

Ah, life is truly wonderful!

Looking at Sui Sui again, he felt that his sister was indeed cute.

Feng Xuanbo thought he could take advantage of Xiao Liu's guilt to bring his sister over and keep her by his side for a few days.

However, before Feng Xuanbo could speak, Feng Xuanbin exclaimed in doubt: "Hey, Fifth Brother, wasn't the gauze on your head already removed a few days ago?"

Feng Xuanrui:?

Feng Xuanbo:!

Careless.

Actually, I forgot, there's also Qi Sha here!

Feng Xuanbo, feeling guilty, shrank back on the couch, while Feng Xuanrui, furious like a bull, lunged over and yanked open the loose gauze on his head.

Beneath the gauze was a healed wound and a faint scar.

Seeing this, Feng Xuanrui broke down on the spot: "Ahhh, I'll kill you, you stinky Xiao Wu!"

The two brothers had just made up, but they fought again.

The room instantly descended into chaos.

Sui Sui jumped in fright, unable to think of anything else, she just wanted to help her brother.

All along, the feelings she'd developed getting along with her brother weren't fake.

So, no one can hurt her brother!

The two brothers weren't really fighting; although Feng Xuanrui was still angry, the guilt from striking earlier remained, so he really couldn't give him another few punches.

Feng Xuanbo teased his brother, feeling guilty himself, so he just gave him a couple of light taps.

The two of them spent half the day exchanging flowery moves, with only Sui Sui running back and forth in the middle.

Her little face turned stern, she opened her short arms and kept blocking in front of Feng Xuanrui.

Seeing this, Feng Xuanbo couldn't help but feel his teeth ache.

Seeing Sui Sui block in front of Feng Xuanrui again, Feng Xuanbo couldn't hold back: "I say, Xiao Liu, are you still a man? Letting your sister protect you?"

Cute, second update.
