"Big Brother!"

"Yuxi is angry! inconsolable kind of angry!!!"

On the phone screen, Su Yuxi, her black hair tied in a ponytail, stood with her hands on her hips, pouting. The words 'not happy' were written all over her face facing the camera.

Stinky brother, silly brother, dumb brother…

They had agreed to video call at noon, but what happened?

It was already one-thirty in the afternoon!!!

Brother disappeared!

Since he went to the Sky City, he's become increasingly aloof, not even keeping promises with his little sister!

Angry!

Just as he arrived home, Su Yuchen sat on the couch and started a video call, saying helplessly, "You know I have a lot of bad luck, but I started the video chat as soon as I came home. Look, I haven't even changed my clothes yet."

"I don't believe it!" Su Yuxi remained fierce. "Tell me, brother, were you chatting with some vixen?"

"No," Su Yuchen denied. Vampires weren't vixens, so there was no issue in saying so. He felt justified!

"Didn't you go with Sister Xia?"

"Is she a vixen?"

"Isn't she?"

"Then, definitely not."

"Brother, you've changed!" Su Yuxi pouted, "Before, you always went along with Yuxi's words… Brother, do you not like Yuxi anymore?"

"Shall I take a selfie for you?"

"Brother! Do you think I'll…"

"Two pictures!"

"Brother, when you just returned, did you eat?" Su Yuxi's tone suddenly turned caring. "Did you fall on your way back? Did something strange hit you… when are you going to take them?"

Su Yuchen looked helplessly at her eager eyes. Some of his sister's interests were quite strange. What was so interesting about a brother's selfies?

"Right now."

"No!" Su Yuxi shook her head. "Brother, how about taking it tonight? Preferably after… um…"

She hesitated. The words 'just after taking a shower, wearing pajamas, with wet hair' didn't quite come out. What if she was seen as weird?

"A picture after washing your hair!" Su Yuxi hesitated before saying, "For the second picture… gulp."

"Are you thirsty?"

"No, no, no!" Su Yuxi quickly shook her head to explain…. A swallowing sound didn't necessarily mean she was thirsty.

"For the second one, can I get a profile shot?"

"Okay."

"Oh, right! When the school uniform arrives, you have to take a picture of me wearing it, okay?"

"You don't have to tell me that, I know." Su Yuchen smiled. "Mom and Dad want to see it too."

"Yeah, yeah!" Su Yuxi nodded eagerly like a little chick. "Dad and Mom are really looking forward to your school uniform picture."

Looking at Yuxi's cheeky expression… Who was really looking forward to it?

But Su Yuchen didn't dwell on it. When Su Yuxi was younger, she had weak health and rarely went out, had no friends, so it was normal for her to rely on her brother as her closest friend.

"Brother, you're the best, yay~"

Su Yuxi looked absolutely thrilled. Who was it that just said something about 'inconsolable anger'?

"What about Mom and Dad?"

"They're cooking." Su Yuxi sprawled on the sofa, her two fair and tender legs gently swinging back and forth under her skirt: "Brother, have you eaten?"

"I have, I ate at school."

"Did you eat with Sister Yushuang?"

"Kind of." Su Yuchen recounted the incident with the falling chandelier.

"That's good, as long as the ceiling didn't collapse." Su Yuxi giggled. "Brother, what do you think of Sister Yushuang?"

"What do I think? As a potential girlfriend?" Su Yuchen placed his phone on the coffee table stand and leaned back on the sofa.

"Uh-huh." Su Yuxi stared nervously at him.

"I'm not planning on dating." Su Yuchen said nonchalantly. "Let's not bring misfortune to others."

"Absolutely." Su Yuxi nodded repeatedly in agreement, only she wouldn't mind her brother's frequent misfortunes!

So, this was fate, hehehe.

"Yuxi, time for dinner."

"Coming."

Su Yuxi quickly sat up from the sofa. "Brother, remember to take selfies, and the photo of your class roster, oh and…"

She glared at Su Yuchen. "No sitting with girls! What if they're assassins using seduction tactics?!"

"You're overthinking, and besides, with the major you chose for me, the probability of sitting with girls is low. I'll probably sit alone, so others won't have to bear bad luck along with me."

"Mhmm, okay, brother, I'll go eat first."

"Go ahead."

"Bye-bye, brother."

Su Yuxi swiftly ended the video call, and Su Yuchen didn't mind. He casually took two selfies and sent them over—when you're good-looking, you don't need to fuss over angles or poses.

​​[My sister is the best]: I'll send one after washing my hair at night, consider the extra one as a bonus.

​​[My brother is the best]: Thanks for the hospitality, Color.jpg.

Su Yuchen tossed his phone to the side of the sofa… it bounced off to the floor, causing the tempered glass to crack.

"Not to the extent of needing a replacement."

Muttering to himself, Su Yuchen headed towards the bedroom.

A short nap, then off to school for the opening ceremony.

"Yuxi, don't eat while looking at your phone… Slow down, no one is going to take it from you."

"I'm full!" Su Yuxi put down her chopsticks, grabbed her phone, and hurriedly ran upstairs.

"What's this child up to now…" The elegant woman, with her hair twisted at the back of her head, wearing a long dress, sighed and retracted her gaze.

Upstairs.

Su Yuxi darted into her bedroom, then pushed open the door to the attached study, took off her shoes, walked in, closed the door, and turned on the light.

Taking a deep breath…

Su Yuxi looked satisfied as she admired the works in the study that only she could enter.

On the walls, floor, and ceiling… were photographs.

Not an inch without one of Su Yuchen's pictures.

There were pictures from childhood, from growing up, eating, washing the face, taking off a coat, putting on clothes…

Countless.

But the study's space clearly wasn't enough to fulfill Su Yuxi's heart. So, what to do?

A study… naturally, there were books.

But flipping through each thick or thin book, you'd find no text on the pages, only photographs.

Some were solo shots, some were group photos.

Only her and her brother's pictures.

Su Yuxi treaded carefully, then picked up a book on the desk covered with Su Yuchen's pictures.

"Brother's Selfie Collection."

The place where the two selfies sent just now belonged.

Flipping through the pages, she stopped in the middle: "Hmm, this page is perfect~"

A smile crept up on Su Yuxi's lips; no one understood her brother better than she did.

Then, she began extracting and converting the selfies from her phone into pictures.

For these pieces of art, she had learned how to develop photos.

"Success, perfect pictures."

Su Yuxi giggled; she never thought her interests were peculiar.

Recording every moment of her brother's growth process was perfectly normal!

Definitely not creepy!
