Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 337 Not Very Smart

Upon hearing this, even the young lady next to him couldn't keep up the smile.

The young lady's eyes were somewhat strange, with irritability and coldness repeatedly appearing in her beautiful big eyes. She would also occasionally look down at the large scissors that Yu Shijiu had placed beside her.

Those were the scissors she used every day to trim her roses.

Just as the young master said, the person in front of me seems to really enjoy taking other people's things.

"?"

Seeing the identical gazes of the young master and young lady, Yu Shijiu wore a bewildered expression. He tilted his head slightly and exclaimed in shock:

"When have I ever stolen anything from anyone?"

How could that be? I've always been a law-abiding citizen and would never steal from others!

Young master and young lady: "..."

Both of their lips twitched simultaneously, and the latter's gaze almost immediately fell on the large pair of scissors that Yu Shijiu was still tightly gripping.

Noticing the young lady's gaze, Yu Shijiu remained calm. He gently kicked the large scissors, blinked, and said:

"Oh, right, there's something else I wanted to ask you, sister."

The young lady's expression suddenly changed. She subconsciously stepped forward to stop Yu Shijiu, only to see the young master rush forward like a mad dog to grab Yu Shijiu's collar.

Miss:"……"

Her raised foot froze in place, but she quickly stopped as if nothing had happened.

"You didn't steal it?!"

The young master's eyes reddened almost instantly. He thought of his father's kind face and gentle questioning last night, and his once respectable face suddenly began to twist.

When the salty, fishy smell of the soil appeared, strange black thorns began to sprout from the young master's eyes and mouth, giving the illusion that they might pierce someone at any moment.

Yu Shijiu was still a malnourished "weak child". When the young master grabbed her by the collar and pulled her up from the chair, she looked pitifully thin from a distance. She looked like a little bird hanging on a branch, delicate and weak, with a snow-white neck and slender limbs.

This was the first thing Lu Chusheng saw when he saw the other person.

He instinctively reached out to stop it, but a dark figure suddenly darted past him.

Xu Hanchi scurried over to Yu Shijiu's side and stopped abruptly, pointing an angry finger at the young master and yelling like a protective mother hen:

"What are you doing! Why are you grabbing Shi Jiu by the neck like that? He's so young and you're so old, how can you bully him like this?!"

The young master's eyes widened suddenly, and the thorns in his eyes and mouth grew outwards, revealing dark green and rotten branches.

Xu Han belatedly noticed the strange look on the other person's face, and his anger subsided considerably in fear.

Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap... How did Young Master turn into a monster so early?! This doesn't make sense! Shouldn't he have gone berserk and turned into a monster to eat and kill people during the middle or end of the wedding?! How could it be so early—

"cough."

A hand suddenly grasped Xu Han's trembling finger.

Xu Han silently turned his head and met Yu Shijiu's eyes.

"Master."

After Yu Shijiu turned Xu Han's finger back from pointing at the young master's nose, he turned his head to look at the young master, who was starting to lose his composure.

"It seems you have some misunderstanding about me?"

As those words fell, the young master realized that his hand, which was holding Yu Shijiu's collar, was being held down by another hand. Then, the sound of bones breaking rang out, and the young master screamed in pain.

No sound came out.

The young lady, sensing something was wrong, quickly stepped forward. She glanced at the young master's hand being held, her eyes narrowing as she was about to say something, when she heard familiar footsteps behind her.

These are not the footsteps of the guests.

The young lady turned around instantly and met the eyes of the old housekeeper who was leading Mr. Xiao this way from not far from the villa gate.

The latter bowed respectfully, while the young lady turned pale.

"Alright, brother."

The young lady tugged at the young master's sleeve, her voice very low:

"Father has arrived."

Upon hearing those four words, the young master, who had been in so much pain that he lost his voice, instantly returned to normal, and the thorns in his eyes and at the corners of his mouth disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Similarly, Yu Shijiu, realizing the danger had disappeared, also let go of her hand.

Click click click——

The broken hand bone was restored to its original state under the watchful eyes of all the players present.

"Wow."

Yu Shijiu rubbed his neck, which was a little itchy from being strangled, and expressed high praise for it.

"so amazing."

Miss:"……"

Other players: "..."

As for the young master, he was like a pure, brainless, and thoughtless NPC. After his body recovered, he did not show any strange expression. Instead, he turned around and walked directly in the direction that Mr. Xiao came from.

"..."

To be honest, what the young master did was really strange.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, He Lingling quickly stepped forward and pulled Xu Han to sit on the chair behind Yu Shijiu, waving her hand vigorously in front of the other party.

"Hey?! Xu Han, are you scared out of your wits?!"

That idiot, running up to the young master and pointing his finger at him while yelling—wasn't that just asking for trouble? Luckily, it was only the young master, not someone else…

He Lingling glanced silently at the young lady who was sitting quietly to the side, and quickly looked away before the other woman realized it.

"It seems the young master has some mental issues."

Yu Shijiu didn't care that he had just been choked. Under the shocked gazes of the other players, he sat down next to the young lady, his eyes crinkling with laughter.

"Sister, do you think your brother really has something wrong with his head?"

Yu Shijiu didn't lower her voice when she said this, and almost all the players sitting around heard it, and their hearts skipped a beat.

Holy crap... to zoom in like that? This is treating this woman like a monster, not a human being!

In short, it's like courting death.

The two, who had fought each other yesterday, were relatively calm. Faced with Yu Shijiu's blatant provocation, the young lady's expression only twisted slightly for a few seconds before recovering.

"My brother is just a bit impulsive."

There was no direct rebuttal.

Yu Shijiu laughed even harder, leaning on the young lady's shoulder with a short laugh.

The young lady froze.

"Sister." Yu Shijiu, leaning against Xiao Jia's shoulder, nuzzled her cheek against her and said in a hoarse voice:

"I'm thinking, the young master doesn't seem to be that smart. Is there any possibility that he might suddenly become aggressive because of a few words from someone?"

Miss:"……"

She twisted her neck and turned her head inch by inch, her eyes fixed on Yu Shijiu.

The human and the strange creature locked eyes, and amidst the slow, gentle music, under the watchful eyes of all the players... they both laughed.

"how can that be possible?"

The young lady's lips slowly turned up, revealing her scarlet gums and pale, sharp teeth.

"My brother is very smart. Why would he listen to others? Who in the villa can control him?"
