After his mother passed away, Xīn Yuán was never disciplined, Mr. Xīn was busy with work every day, and raised Xīn Yuán into a troublemaker who caused headaches for those around him.
But on this day, he finally cracked under pressure.
"What... what are you looking at again?"
Xin Xiao Lu turned her head to look at him, and in the eerie sound effects, she gave a faint smile, "Watching movies is fun, little brother, come together."
In Xīn Yuán's eyes, on the huge TV screen, a terrifying ghost with a gruesome expression had appeared. A pair of black eyes were constantly enlarging on the screen, contrasting with Xīn Xiǎo Lù's smiling face which looked extremely strange - this cheap sister rarely smiled, and every time she suddenly laughed, it made people feel uncomfortable, as if something was crawling on their backs.
Ever since he saw her burying something in the garden at midnight, Xin Xiaolu had run into her twice more when getting up to use the bathroom. She would just stand there in the darkness at the end of the corridor, not speaking or moving, scaring Xin Yuan half to death and almost making him pee his pants. Moreover, he discovered that Xin Xiaolu loved watching horror movies. Usually, it was just the two of them and Yang Jie in the house, with Yang Jie always chatting with the neighbors' nanny outside. The two of them would often be alone together inside, and Xin Yuan would watch as Xin Xiaolu played different horror movies every day.
Even if Xīn Yuàn only occasionally saw a little bit, he was scared out of his wits. Especially at night when he was alone in the room, he couldn't help but think about those images. He was afraid that something would suddenly jump out from the closet or hide under the bed. His fear made him wrap himself tightly in the blanket, and he didn't dare to even think about causing trouble. Even though he originally wanted to tease Xīn Xiǎo Lù, after this period of time, he didn't dare get close to her anymore. Especially when she watched horror movies with a poker face, he was even more afraid to approach her.
"I don't want her living in our home! Father, you drive her out!" Xīn Yuān went to find Xīn Mr. to make trouble, this time he said 'her' refers to Xīn Xiǎo Lù.
Mr. Xin didn't think much of his daughter-in-law, but he didn't have any bad feelings towards this quiet and introverted girl either. As for his son's words, he naturally wouldn't listen to them, thinking that his son was just throwing another tantrum. He was used to his son being like this, so he simply ignored him.
This made Xin Yuan furious. He shouted: "If you don't drive her away, I'll leave home! I don't want to live at home anymore!"
Mr. Xin was also annoyed by his fuss this time, and rarely scolded him with a straight face: "How old are you, always throwing a tantrum, no manners at all, is that what your teachers taught you at school?"
Xin Yuan was so angry that he almost died, and that afternoon he really ran out. However, he didn't run far, just to a nearby villa district, the home of Mr. Xin's brother.
Xin wants to discuss "The Female Lead and the Male Second" with more like-minded people, "Popular Web Novels" or chat with more book friends about their favorite books.
