Chapter 284: Chapter 186: A Deadly Encounter with Gastella (Part 2) _2

Ke Xiaomo said, “It won’t happen again, Mom.”

Ke Mingye said, “If Second Brother has nothing to say, Mom, then please let us go.”

Bai Wenna asked, “Second Brother has nothing to say, but what about you?”

“Second Brother took me out to play; I was forced to, okay?” Ke Mingye sighed, “So if he’s reflecting on it, that should be enough. What am I reflecting on, Mom? This is a bit unreasonable.”

Ke Xiaomo didn’t try to argue; he simply shook his head and sighed, wrapping his arms around his shoulders and staying silent.

He knew Ke Mingye was injured, so he didn’t want to make it hard on him. If he could take the blame for him, then just taking it would be better than letting him get a lecture in the corridor.

“Seems like you haven’t reflected enough; stand some more,” Bai Wenna said and went downstairs with the feather duster, leaving them. Soon after, the pleas of Bai Zini and Bai Ziling could be heard as they bounced up the stairs like rabbits.

At that moment, a soft sigh from Bai Qiuwu came from the next room. She had tutoring classes tomorrow, and the noise was keeping her from getting any sleep.

Immediately after, Ke Yongzhu’s complaints came from another room: “So noisy…”

He had been going to bed early these past few days, hardly leaving his room, either staying in to play on his phone or going out for a walk alone. Unless Bai Zini and Bai Ziling dragged him out to play, he was rarely seen around the house.

When Ke Mingye saw Bai Ziling going upstairs, he hurriedly used lip-reading to silently say to her, “Help us out, little sister number one.”

“I can’t help.”

Bai Ziling whispered, very seriously shaking her head with her snow-white hair swishing, then, with an expressionless face, swept past them and walked into her own room.

She closed the door, locked it, making it clear she was cutting ties to avoid her mother’s wrath. Hearing the “click” of the lock, the three eldest brothers all felt a chill.

Ke Yinzhi yawned, smiled slightly and said sarcastically, “Looks like… even your little sister isn’t willing to save you guys. You two brothers are quite a letdown, aren’t you?”

Ke Xiaomo retorted, “Are you sure it isn’t you, the eldest brother, who’s a letdown?”

Ke Mingye said, “I think you all are quite a letdown. If it were just me standing here, Zi Ling would have already pleaded with Mom on my behalf. She clearly doesn’t want to bother with you guys.”

After saying that, he quickly pinned his hopes on the second figure to come upstairs, joining his hands as if praying, “Help us out, little sister number two!”

Upon hearing this, Bai Zini glanced up from her phone to look at the punishment stance of the three, first stunned, then unable to suppress her laughter while clutching her stomach, and finally, a schadenfreude expression appeared on her face.

After coughing twice, she said, “Wow… isn’t this our eldest and older and not-as-old brothers? You’re pretty interesting, correcting your posture in the middle of the night. Are you practicing for military training at the university?”

Honestly, Ke Mingye also wanted to bring in the Dice Monster at this moment and sarcastically say to Ke Xiaomo and Ke Yinzhi who were standing punished.

“Wow, isn’t this our Ninja Sect Master and Black Judge? Why do you look so drained, standing against the wall in the middle of the night? You weren’t like this when you were recklessly killing out there.”

However, he himself was also part of the line-up being punished, which annoyed the hell out of him.

“So are you going to help or not?” Ke Mingye squinted and asked.

“Xiao Ni, please plead with Mom for us,” Ke Xiaomo said with a sigh, arms crossed.

“If it’s too difficult for you, then just plead for me, your eldest brother. You can ignore these two beside me,” Ke Yinzhi said with a smile.

“That will depend on your attitude. I’ll give you a little time to think about it,” Bai Zini said as she entered the washroom hummingly under their expectant gazes, closed the door, and came out slowly after freshening up.

“Please, Bai Zini, I’ll be your runner for the next week,” Ke Mingye said with his hands together, “Do you think that’s okay?”

“What about the other two?”

Bai Zini seemed unsatisfied, gently tapping her arm with her finger as she looked at the other two.

“I’ll buy you a Pikachu toy tomorrow,” Ke Yinzhi said.

“I’ll get you a new backpack,” Ke Xiaomo said.

Immediately, Bai Zini was theatrically excited, her eyes sparkling, clapping her hands together, “Wow, you three brothers are too kind. If you were always this nice, it’d be even better. Well, I’ll reluctantly help you guys out!”

With that, she walked into their mother’s room, filled with their hopeful expectations, confident and assured.

She was ejected in less than three seconds.

Her face covered in dust, utterly disheveled.

Ke Yinzhi shrugged;

Ke Xiaomo sighed;

Ke Mingye appeared disdainful.

Bai Zini looked dejected, with a pitying glance at the three brothers who had differing degrees of scorn on their faces, saying, “Can’t you look at me without those faces? It’s all because the stakes you offered were too low. If you, eldest brother, were willing to buy me a Lolita dress, then I would have kneeled and begged Mom by the bed, how could I have been blown out at the speed of light?!”

She paused, speaking deeply, “Looks like… only Dad can save you now.”

Ke Mingye said feebly, “Then hurry and call Dad to come home, just tell him Mom’s gone crazy again.”

Though he said this, he actually knew that Qing Ya was probably busy investigating the KQA Trading Building incident and looking for blue owl’s whereabouts. After all, Ke Mingye hadn’t used his phone to check in with Che Zhengchen and Bai Yi, having returned home by himself. They might even think blue owl was missing.

“My phone is downstairs on the couch. Going down now, Mom would kill me. Take care of yourselves…”
