Chapter 6: Oh No, This Favorability Value Is Skyrocketing!

Watching Luo Xinian charging toward her in a fit of rage, Luo Xixi saw his posture and realized he seemed to intend to "give her a taste of her own medicine" by pushing her down the stairs as well.

Although it would be easy for Luo Xixi to dodge, this guy would definitely continue to find all sorts of faults with her afterward.

What a nuisance.

In an instant, Luo Xixi made up her mind.

After Luo Xinian rushed up to Luo Xixi, just as she had expected, he grabbed her fiercely and threw her down the stairs—

【Host！！！！！】

The Baby System, still puzzled as to why Luo Xinian's Disgust Value had suddenly skyrocketed, had not anticipated that Luo Xinian would push Luo Xixi down the stairs; before she could even deploy an air cushion for Luo Xixi, Luo Xixi had already tumbled down the stairs.

Because she lacked the system's protection, Luo Xixi's fall was far more wretched than Luo Shiqing's.

Her forehead was gashed open.

Fresh blood instantly gushed out, smearing half her face.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

At this moment.

The Luo Family parents also rushed out of the room due to the commotion, only to see Luo Xixi lying at the bottom of the stairs, clutching her blood-drenched head.

"Xixi！！！！"

Seeing her daughter bleeding, Bai Fengxia let out a shrill scream, then rushed down from the stairs in a panic.

"Xixi, what happened to you? Why are you bleeding so much? Can you still speak? Don't scare Mommy."

Perhaps because the sight of her face smeared with blood was too horrifying, tears rolled down Bai Fengxia's cheeks incessantly; her hands trembled uncontrollably, looking as if she were about to faint herself.

"Mommy, I'm fine, don't be nervous."

Seeing that Bai Fengxia was scared to death, Luo Xixi instead turned to comfort her.

She only wanted to solve the problem once and for all, so she had deliberately smashed her forehead hard when she rolled to the bottom; this way, Luo Xinian should finally quiet down for a while. She hadn't expected Mommy to be so frightened, and Luo Xixi felt quite guilty, yet her heart also felt a little warm.

In her past life, she had no parents, let alone anyone who cared about her; she had fought tooth and nail to gain the attention and concern of others, only to find in the end that not a single person truly cared about her.

Now that she had transmigrated into this world, although she knew she would eventually become enemies with this family, seeing her mother truly worried and afraid for her, Luo Xixi actually felt a glimmer of warmth and happiness.

"Silly child, you've lost so much blood from your head, how can you be fine? Doctor, I'll call a doctor for you right away."

Bai Fengxia hurriedly reached for her phone to call 120.

At this moment.

The Baby System, regretting not having protected the Host, came online crying and reported to Luo Xixi: 【Woooo... Host, Bai Fengxia's Heartache Value for you has risen, it is now 1000 points. 100 points of Heartache Value can be converted into 5 points of Favorability Value; currently, Bai Fengxia's Favorability Value toward you is 60 points. ε(┬┬＿┬┬)3】

【Holy crap!!】

Hearing the system's report, Luo Xixi was stunned.

It had increased her Favorability Value by 50 points all at once—did it have to be this crazy? She just didn't want Luo Xinian to keep finding trouble for her!!

Could this Baby System be malfunctioning again??

"Xinian, what is going on?"

Luo Zhennian looked at his third son with a cold and stern expression; he was clearly genuinely angry.

Luo Xinian's face was pale. When he saw the half of Luo Xixi's face smeared with blood, his mind went completely blank. He didn't know why he had pushed his own sister down the stairs either; he had been so furious at the time, wishing Luo Xixi were dead, and so he...

He felt very regretful.

He felt very guilty.

He felt he shouldn't have treated his sister this way.

However, a voice in his mind kept reminding him that he should hate Luo Xixi, because she deserved it, she brought it upon herself. Luo Xinian couldn't resist that voice in his mind; his lips trembled as he spat out the words, "She, she deserved it! Luo Xixi pushed Shiqing down the stairs, so she should be pushed down too..."

"You said Shiqing was pushed down the stairs by Xixi?"

Luo Zhennian immediately looked down at Luo Shiqing, who only had a small scrape and barely any blood, "Shiqing, what is going on?!"

Eek!!!

Confronted directly by Luo Zhennian, Luo Shiqing felt a bit guilty. It was the first time she had seen her father treat her with such a stern and cold attitude. Because the plot had spiraled out of control, Luo Shiqing didn't know how to handle it now.

She could only continue to play the victim, looking at Luo Zhennian with teary, aggrieved eyes, and choked out: "Daddy, it's all my fault, I didn't explain it clearly. I accidentally fell down the stairs myself just now. Third Brother thought it was Sister who pushed me, so he pushed Sister down. It's all my fault, all my fault..."

As she spoke.

She immediately looked at Luo Xixi again, crying like a pear blossom in the rain: "Sister, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, woooo..."

Afterward, Luo Shiqing covered her face and began to sob.

Watching Luo Shiqing's flawless acting, Luo Xixi sighed once again: The heroine is truly worthy of being the heroine; it would be a waste if she didn't go into the entertainment industry with this acting skill.

"Luo Xinian!"

After hearing Luo Shiqing's explanation, Luo Zhennian looked at his third son in a rage, "You pushed your own sister down the stairs without even figuring out right from wrong—are you even human? You've gone too far!"

"I..."

Luo Xinian's head was buzzing; so, had he really misunderstood Luo Xixi?

For a moment.

Luo Xinian felt immense remorse, but the voice in his mind told him he hadn't done anything wrong. Even if Luo Xixi hadn't pushed Shiqing, she still deserved it, because it was all her fault for returning to this family, which had triggered this whole series of events.

Luo Xixi shouldn't have come back.

Since she had returned, she deserved this retribution, because she had destroyed the peace and harmony of this home.

That was what the voice told Luo Xinian, but deep down, Luo Xinian felt it was wrong. What kind of twisted logic was this? He had done something wrong, he had hurt his sister—how could he keep making excuses for himself?

What was wrong with him?

What on earth was wrong with him?!

Luo Xinian struggled internally, filled with regret and remorse.

【Woooo... Host, Luo Xinian's Guilt Value toward you has increased by 500 points, but because his Favorability Value is 0, the conversion mode cannot be activated for the time being. ε(┬┬＿┬┬)3】

【... Huh? (⊙_⊙?)】

Luo Xixi was stunned again after hearing this.

Is this Luo Xinian suffering from a split personality? Clearly, his face is currently written full of hatred and loathing for her, yet in his heart, he feels so much guilt toward her? So he both loathes her and feels guilty toward her?

... I'm so afraid he'll develop schizophrenia. _(: з」∠)_

"Xixi!"

Luo Zhennian had no time to pay attention to his third son anymore; he hurriedly went downstairs and looked at Luo Xixi worriedly, saying, "Don't be afraid, child, the doctor will be here soon. Let's clean your wound first to avoid infection."

"Okay, Dad. You and Mom don't worry; I just bumped my forehead. It looks scary, but it's actually nothing serious."

【Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect it. It's just a small injury, yet it made Mom and Dad so worried. But for me, this is just a common occurrence. I've had even more serious injuries in the past, so I'm already used to it. It's quite embarrassing to scare Mom and Dad like this.】

After hearing Luo Xixi's inner voice, the Luo Family parents were severely shaken, their hearts filled with even more pain and distress.

Such an injury is actually no big deal to a girl? She's had even more serious injuries in the past? What on earth has this child experienced in the past?!

Luo Zhennian and Bai Fengxia were practically dying of heartache.

【Sob sob sob sob... Host, Luo Zhennian's Heartache Value for you has increased by 1000 points, converted into 50 points of Favorability Value; current Favorability Value is 60 points. Bai Fengxia's Heartache Value has increased by another 500 points, converted into 25 points of Favorability Value; current Favorability Value is 85 points. Luo Xinian's Guilt Value has increased by another 500 points; current Guilt Value is 1000 points. ε(┬┬＿┬┬)3】

Luo Xixi: 【Ah, this, this, this...】

Hearing this series of reports from the system, Luo Xixi was dumbfounded.

Didn't she just casually offer a word of comfort to keep them from worrying too much about her? The Favorability Value was soaring so fast she almost thought she had turned on an External Cheat.

【Tong'er, could it be that you...】

【Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I am not malfunctioning!!】

The Baby System had actually learned to answer ahead of time.

Hmm...

Then... is it really because I am Cannon Fodder that the Favorability Value is so easy to farm?
