Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

As Akahoshi was pondering when to bring Ayu home, a sudden burst of angry shouts came from downstairs.

Chi Xing immediately used her divine power to block Si Ningyu's hearing, and just as he was about to open his eyes, she held him and gently comforted him.

I put a sleep-inducing talisman on him to ensure he gets a good night's sleep.

250 was broadcasting live downstairs, and the man frowned and coldly reprimanded:

"Si Youning, do you know what you're doing?"

Gu Xu'an stood in front, shielding Si Youning behind him.

Si Youning was not a coward; she stepped forward and met Si Yucheng's gaze.

"My brother's upstairs, dare to shout louder?"

Si Yucheng gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with anger, but this time his voice was lower:

"Is this how you talk to your father? Did I ever say that you have to find a woman to carry on the family line? I think you don't respect us at all."

"You're actually with a man? Are you trying to drive us crazy?"

Si Youning chuckled, holding Gu Xu'an's hand tightly.

"It's my business who I like, and whether you can accept it is your business. I won't change my thoughts and actions because of you."

"Bastard!"

"Nonsense!"

The usually gentle Zhou Wanyi couldn't help but get angry: "You're all men, how can men be together?"

“How did I raise you? You have an older brother. Don’t forget, your brother has been sick since he was a child. He suffered at such a young age. As for you, your family was better off since you were a child, and you were spoiled in everything. How could you do such a thing?”

She tried to walk over and separate their clasped hands, but Si Youning pulled Gu Xu'an away from her touch, her voice even colder:

"Mom, how could you say such a thing? My brother has been in poor health since he was a child, and that's not my fault. He has suffered since he was a child, and that's your fault. What does it have to do with me?"

Si Youning loves her brother very much, but she is not blind to right and wrong, and she will never again accept such manipulation from her closest relatives.

Both being children of the same couple, Si Youning knew from a young age that they loved her older brother more.

Although they would cook delicious food for him, they would ask his older brother's opinion first before making it, and if his older brother didn't like it, they would immediately change it.

When buying clothes, Mom always worries about the quality of the fabric and whether it will be comfortable to wear. Sometimes she will ask Si Youning to try them on to see if they will rub against his skin.

When buying clothes for Si Youning, she always only cares about the size and whether they look good. Of course, it's not that she doesn't buy clothes for him, but she doesn't have the same concern she has for her older brother. It's as if raising him is just a task she's completing.

When I was little, I wanted to go to the amusement park, but my mother always said, "Your brother can't handle those things, so you have to accommodate him and go for a walk in the park with him."

If his older brother hadn't been kind to him since childhood, he might have hated his spoiled older brother.

Even the smallest things could make him jealous, jealous that his older brother received the most love and care from their parents.

Now that he's grown up, Si Youning knows about his brother's situation and understands that it's his brother who has always protected him.

Si Ningyu would remember what he liked to eat. Every time her mother asked what she wanted to eat, Si Ningyu would almost always say what Si Youning liked.

When Si Youning was little, he thought his brother had the same taste as him and liked the same colors.

Later I found out that my brother didn't like strawberries or chocolate at all, but he always asked for strawberries when buying fruit. Every time Dad came back from a business trip and asked my brother what he wanted, my brother would ask Dad to buy him his favorite chocolate.

His father never asked him what he liked. In the eyes of the couple, including now, they always thought he was taking his blessings for granted.

Si Youning has always had the best milk powder, beautiful toys, and brand-new clothes since she was a child. Nothing about her has ever been anything but good.

Compared to Si Ningyu, because she was their first child and a premature baby born during their most difficult time, they devoted their time and energy to raising her.

Because of poverty, Si Ningyu wore old clothes sent by relatives when he was a child. When he couldn't have breast milk, they could only afford to buy him the cheapest milk powder by saving every penny.

Even the diapers were just a few pieces of cloth that could be reused. When they grew a little older, they could only wear open-crotch pants.

The couple felt both guilty and heartbroken for Si Ningyu.

Especially when they saw that Si Youning was born with good fortune, while Si Ningyu was sickly, they felt even more sorry for Si Ningyu.

Si Youning is their biological child, and of course they love him. However, this love has been worn away by repeated arguments, and they almost always think of Si Youning during each fight.

If it weren't for this child, they might have divorced long ago.

During their most heated arguments, they considered divorce and even began dividing their assets.

However, they always get stuck on the issue of the child. The couple fight for custody of Si Ningyu, each worried that the other might find someone else who would abuse Si Ningyu.

No one cared what Si Youning would do next.

Zhou Wanyi disliked the child who made her a housewife, while Si Yucheng, being busy with work, had never taken care of Si Youning since childhood and couldn't feel close to him, so naturally she didn't want him.

Si Youning understood these things when he grew up. Every time, his older brother would hug him and say, "Brother wants you, Youyou, don't be afraid."

Si Youning had long since wanted to leave this dysfunctional family.

"I think you've gone too far. Your dad and I have worked ourselves to the bone for you, haven't we? If your brother had had the same advantages as you since he was a child, would he have turned out like this?"

Zhou Wanyi couldn't help but point at him and yell, "Your brother has become like this, what kind of ingrate are you talking about?"

In their eyes, Si Youning should be content. They gave him life, raised him, and provided him with a comfortable family life, so he should repay them and not be so disobedient.

He started bringing up his brother again, and Si Youning no longer held back his temper, but his voice remained low:

"Isn't my brother's condition all your fault? You knew he had health problems since he was a child, so why didn't you take him to see a doctor when he was young? Why did you argue with him every few days?"

"As far back as I can remember, the two of you have never stopped arguing."

As he spoke, Si Youning couldn't help but tear up, his gaze still stubborn:

“My brother was driven insane by you guys, and I’m almost insane too. With parents like you, who can live a good life?”

Hearing these words, Gu Xu'an hugged him tenderly: "Don't be angry, it will be alright."

The two were embracing and hugging without restraint. Si Yucheng, his face ashen, grabbed a coffee cup from the table and threw it at them, cursing as he did so.

"You shameless bastard, you've completely disgraced the Si family."

The cup hit him in an instant, leaving no time to think. Gu Xu'an sidestepped and blocked it, letting the coffee cup smash into his back.

The middle-aged man smashed things with great force, and Gu Xu'an couldn't help but groan in pain.

Normally, doing this might have made him wary of retaliation from the Gu family, but now that Gu Xu'an was holding his own son, Si Yucheng was no longer afraid.
