Ugh, wasn't the Awakening System supposed to make me the main character?

I was a little scared, but remembering that I had promised the silly little girl that I would help her, I could only grit my teeth and continue talking to my mom.

"Mom, I think we should leave Dad here for now."

"No, we can't let this bad trend start. Bad children must be punished properly."

My mother firmly rejected me without even thinking about it.

When my mother rejected my suggestion, I decided to try a different approach: "What did Dad say to that person that made Mom so angry?"

"I don't know, but I won't allow myself to have any contact with those people."

As soon as Mom finished speaking, the silly little girl on the other end of the phone shouted in correction, "She sent the message to the wrong person, and I replied with an 'oh,' and your mom just happened to catch me! I'm so innocent, waaaaah..."

Judging from Dad's aggrieved tone, I understood. It must be because Dad went back to one of his old sugar daddies, and Mom got jealous, which made her feel bad. That's why Dad got stabbed because he landed on his left foot first when he went out.

That's pretty tragic...

However, I can actually understand my mother. My father had this problem before his rebirth. Although he truly loved my mother, he couldn't shake it off. My mother had many emotional outbursts because of this, and I guess the reason she's so sensitive now is for a similar reason.

Thinking about what the silly little girl Gui Xiao has done before, I think maybe we shouldn't save her here and let her endure it for a while. That way, her mother might feel more secure.

"Alright then, you two continue, I won't disturb you. Mom, please be gentle with Dad later."

After saying that, I hung up the phone.

But as soon as the call ended, the silly little girl Gui Xiao called immediately, "Gui Ye, waaaaah, save me, waaaaah! You can't just stand by and watch your father be killed like this!!"

Gui Xiao's plea for help was tinged with sobs, which made me feel sorry for her again, but there was nothing I could do to help. After a moment of hesitation, I could only offer words of comfort.

"It's okay, Dad, just bear with it and it will pass."

And think about it, all the things you did before made Mom feel so insecure. The reason she's acting this way is simply because she wants to be close to you, to feel a little more secure.

"Waaaaah, when a kind person wants intimacy and security, does that mean they'll dehydrate the other person completely?!"

"No, Mommy loves you so much, so deeply that ordinary physical intimacy isn't enough. She needs to completely dehydrate Daddy!"

To be honest, I don't even know what kind of nonsense I'm talking about, but that's probably about it.

"Waaaaah, you've changed! So just one question: you promised to save me, so are you going to save me or not?!"

"No help!"

Without the slightest hesitation, I answered decisively.

"You...you...you are my daughter! How could you watch your father suffer such a terrible fate..."

Just as the silly little girl Gui Xiao was about to further morally blackmail me, a loud bang suddenly came from the other end of the phone, followed by another scream from the silly little girl.

"Whoa!! How did you get in here?!"

"Heh, how did I get in? Have you forgotten that we have a spare key for each room in the house? Did you think that as long as you locked the door from the inside, everything would be fine?"

Hearing this, just by putting myself in the shoes of the silly little girl Gui Xiao, I pretty much knew what was going to happen to her next...

Sure enough, Gui Xiao's voice didn't come from the other end of the phone for a long time. She was probably too scared to speak.

Before the silly little girl Gui Xiao could speak, her mother continued, "But I really had a hard time finding the spare key just now, and I was so angry. Now that I've finally opened the door, I need to let it all out!"

Presumably, Mom was up to something. The voice of the silly little girl Gui Xiao, who was terrified, came from the other end of the phone: "Waaah, no, no! I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, waaaah, I'm sorry, I really know I was wrong, please let me go, I really know I was wrong!"

Don't sew my skirt, don't spread my legs, no! Ahhhhhh!!!

Gui Xiao's shrill scream came from the other end of the phone; she was probably going to get another round of pampering from her mother.

At this point, I knew I should hang up, otherwise I would hear things I shouldn't have heard.

After putting my phone away, I didn't forget to close my eyes and clasp my hands together to pray for that silly little girl.

"I hope people will be fed grass."

After I finished praying, I took my drink and went to the living room.

244. This game has so many bugs!

After getting Yu Muyuan his drink, we played another round of Three Kingdoms Kill.

The battle was very intense. Right after the first round, it turned into a one-on-one duel between me and Zhang Xiu on the other side.

Looking at the huge pile of peaches in my hand, I felt that victory was already in my grasp.

But then, Zhang Xiu on the other side suddenly used some kind of skill on me.

"Betty Bear, invincible in chaotic times!"

Following a powerful line of dialogue, a barrage of attacks came crashing down on me.

No, you can roar too?

But it's okay, I still have plenty of Flash and Peach.

Just when I was still calm and collected, I found that for some reason, I couldn't use any of the flash cards in my hand. No matter how I clicked, it didn't work, and I quickly entered a near-death state.

But then I realized that not only could I not use Flash, but I also couldn't use Peach, and my general died as a result.

Looking at the two big "failure" words on the screen, I felt both angry and annoyed.

"Wait, what's wrong with this game? Why can't I use my Flash and Peach? This game has so many bugs!"

I was so angry that I just shut down the game.

I'm speechless!

Seeing that I was still angry, Yu Muyuan quickly came over to comfort me, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, here, have a drink."

After saying that, Yu Muyuan picked up the bottle of soda I had placed on the table with her small hand and handed it to me.

My mood only eased a little after I received the sugary drink that Yu Muyuan had given me, which had already made me quite hot.

Just then, Ning Xueyang came downstairs after finishing her work. She happened to see me turning red and asked me with concern.

"What's wrong? Why is the teacher's face so red?"

I waved my hand and took a breath to fully recover. "It's nothing, I was just almost pregnant from being so angry about a game bug."

"Oh, I see." Ning Xueyang nodded after hearing my answer, and then asked, "What game made the teacher so angry?"

"In the card game 'Three Kingdoms Kill,' I don't know if it was a bug or if the opponent was cheating, but Guiye couldn't play a single card," Yu Muyuan answered for me.

"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore, let's not think about it." I waved my hand, actually I wasn't that angry anymore.

My emotions when playing games are often like this: they come quickly and go quickly.

"So what's next? Stop playing Three Kingdoms Kill?" Yu Muyuan asked, looking at me.

"Hmm... let me think about it."

After what just happened, I don't want to play games for the time being, but I can't think of anything else interesting to do right now.

Just as I was still pondering, Ning Xueyang suggested, "How about this, after Yaqin finishes her shower, the four of us can play together?"

"Haha, four people can play so many fun things!" Yu Muyuan agreed without even thinking.

But I was still a bit suspicious. After what happened before, when Ning Xueyang said she wanted to hang out together, I couldn't help but think of some strange things...

But judging from Ning Xueyang's serious demeanor just now, and the fact that she said there should be four of them together, the fun here shouldn't be the strange things I'm thinking of...

"What do you think, teacher?" Ning Xueyang asked, her gaze falling on me.

I hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

To be honest, as long as I'm not being forced to do *that* kind of thing to Ning Xueyang, I can accept being with him.

After all, she is a beautiful and independent young lady with both ability and looks, and many people pursue her but can't win her heart.

"I'm fine with anything."

I agreed, but even though it's just playing games together, I'll still sit opposite Ning Xueyang later.

Otherwise, who knows what might happen next? And if I sit opposite Ning Xueyang, Yu Muyuan will be right behind Ning Yaqin, so both brothers will be safe.

Then, Ning Yaqin, who had just finished showering and changing her clothes, came into the living room. She looked at the three of us and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Want to play games together? Let's all four of us play together." Yu Muyuan raised his little hand high, as excited as a child.

Seeing that Yu Muyuan was so interested, Ning Yaqin agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, what should we play?"

"How about we play something simple, like drawing jokers?" I suggested somewhat casually.

Although I hate to admit it, Yu Muyuan and I are clearly at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength compared to those two sisters, and we also seem to be at a disadvantage in terms of intelligence.

In that case, games that rely on luck would be the best choice.

"Okay, let's draw the Joker cards then. I remember there's a deck of cards in the room, I'll go get it now!"

After saying that, Yu Muyuan ran upstairs to his room.

"Okay, I'll blow-dry my hair first, it'll be done soon."

After leaving behind those words, Ning Yaqin departed.

At this moment, only Ning Xueyang and I were left in the living room. Before I could do anything, Ning Xueyang immediately moved closer to me with a smile on her face that I couldn't understand.

I had a bad feeling in my heart. Judging from that smile, it was probably going to be bad! I should have just gone upstairs with Yu Muyuan!
