Chapter 7: Not Saving the Ungrateful Wolf (Part 1)

In her previous life, her house caught fire. In order to save her younger brother, she suffered burns on half of her body, especially the scars on her face, which were particularly horrific.

"Wow, Mom, my brother looks terrifying! Tell him to get out of my house!" The original owner had just been discharged from the hospital and entered the house when she heard the younger brother she had saved pointing at her and shouting.

The original owner's younger brother was not grateful to the original owner at all; on the contrary, he was full of disgust. Even when he looked at the original owner, it was as if he saw something dirty.

Seeing that their eldest son was useless and that they would have to rely on their younger son to support them in their old age, the original owner's parents locked him in his room to keep him happy. They also forbade him from leaving the room without Qi Xiaodi's permission, so that their younger son would not hold a grudge against them and refuse to support them in their old age.

To the original owner's parents, their eldest son was already in this state and would have no future. Even if the original owner had done this to save their younger son, it couldn't change the fact that the original owner's life was ruined. The original owner's parents abandoned him and placed all their hopes on their younger son. In order to please their younger son, they didn't hesitate to lock the original owner up, as if the original owner was not their son at all.

If they weren't afraid the original owner would starve to death and they would be arrested by the police, they probably wouldn't even be willing to send the original owner two meals of thin porridge.

The original owner had just been discharged from the hospital, and the area of ​​burns on her body was too large. Her parents were unwilling to spend more money on her treatment, and let her skin fester and go hungry.

Later, the original owner lived a life worse than death. In addition to being trapped in a dark room every day, not having enough to eat, and experiencing increasing pain, the original owner's younger brother often bullied him. In the end, the original owner was faked to be in a car accident, which allowed the Qi family to receive a large sum of insurance compensation. The Qi family parents bought a house and a car for the younger brother.

Qi Xiaodi didn't do well in school and didn't get into university, so he went to a vocational college. Thanks to the original owner's insurance compensation, he had a house and a car. He got married and had a child before graduating. The family of five lived a harmonious and happy life, and no one remembered that the original owner of the Qi family existed.

Only when money was scarce would Qi Xiaodi mutter, "If only I hadn't let him die so young, the insurance payout would have been much higher..."

Upon hearing this, Qi's parents fell silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement with their younger brother, showing no sign of sadness.

……

"Brother, where's my Coke? Did you steal some of my Coke?" As soon as Qi Yuan opened her eyes, she heard her little brother's hoarse voice, which was going through puberty, shouting at her.

Qi Yuan didn't want to pay attention, but Qi's younger brother wouldn't let go.

"Mom, my brother is bullying me again! He even stole my Coke! Mom, you have to do something about my brother!" When his mother ignored him, Qi Xiaodi ran to the kitchen door and called out to her.

The kitchen door opened, and Qi's mother, wearing an apron and holding a spatula, became somewhat irritated upon hearing her younger brother's shouts.

It was already hot in the middle of summer, and the kitchen didn't even have air conditioning. She still had to cook for the three men in the house, so Qi's mother was already in a bad mood. When she heard her younger brother complaining, she immediately found a way to vent her anger and started yelling at Qi Yuan.

"Qiyuan! How dare you, the older brother, steal your younger brother's things? Now, go and buy your brother another bottle, do you hear me?"

"One bottle isn't enough, we need three! And they have to be ice-cold." As soon as Qi heard his mother speaking up for him, he immediately seized the opportunity and added.

"Don't push your luck, I'm already being kind by buying it for you!" Although Qi's mother was furious, she wasn't biased towards her younger brother. Seeing her eldest son's face darken, she turned around and tapped her younger brother's forehead with her hand.

Little Brother Qi was still somewhat indignant after being teased by his mother.

"Mom, what are you doing? It was my brother who drank my Coke, so what's wrong with making him pay me back three? This will teach him a lesson so he won't steal it next time. I'm doing this for his own good..." Little Qi muttered, but when he turned around, Qi Yuan had already disappeared.

"Mom, look at my brother, he didn't even listen to the end of what was being said, and he's gone..."

"Alright, stop trying to take advantage of me. Don't think I don't know you drank that cola this morning and you still want to blame your brother. Get out of here, I still have to cook for you three bastards."

After his mother said that, Qi Xiaodi stuck out his tongue and said, "I knew Mom was the best to me. I'm leaving now so I won't bother Mom when she's making me something delicious."

Qi's mother was amused by her little brother's antics, and after scolding him a couple of times as a "naughty monkey," she turned and went into the kitchen.

Before the fire, Qi's parents generally treated their two sons equally. After all, they were taught from a young age that the older son should give way to the younger one, and they themselves had grown up in that way. So whenever Qi's younger brother had a conflict with the original owner, they naturally expected the original owner to be considerate of Qi's younger brother.

For the parents, this wasn't a case of unfair treatment. But for the original owner and her younger brother, it was clear that their parents favored the younger brother more. As a result, the original owner became increasingly silent at home, while the younger brother, taking advantage of being younger, became increasingly brazen in bullying her, and the relationship between the two brothers became extremely hostile.

As Qi Yuan walked towards the supermarket, she calculated the time. Soon, her mother would receive a call from her father. She hurriedly went to deliver the items to her father, and before leaving, she reminded her younger brother to watch the fire.

Little Qi was engrossed in his game and only responded with "uh-huhs," completely oblivious to what his mother was saying while wearing headphones. By the time the fire started, he was still busy with a team battle. Later, when the original owner returned, she saw thick smoke billowing from her house downstairs and rushed back to rescue Little Qi, who was still playing the game.

As a result, Qi Xiaodi was still cursing and blaming the original owner for affecting his last team battle. He lingered for a while before going out with the original owner. As soon as they stepped out, they saw that the living room was already engulfed in flames. At this moment, Qi Xiaodi stopped cursing, took the coat that the original owner had covered his head with, covered his own head with it, and ran out.

With a loud bang, the security door was slammed shut.

The original owner was suddenly choked by the thick smoke, and his eyes were also blinded by the smoke, so he instinctively closed them. When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the door behind the smoke was tightly closed. He knew without thinking that this was Qi Xiaodi's doing. He wanted to rush over, but the hot metal doorknob burned his palm. Just as the original owner was about to open the door despite the pain, the gas exploded the next moment.

When she woke up again, the original owner was already in the hospital.

In this life, I pray that I won't be the meddlesome bad guy who interferes with my little brother's team battles. I just don't know if my little brother will be grateful for my understanding.

There's a supermarket at the entrance of the residential area, but it doesn't sell iced water. Qi Yuan still went in and wandered around for a bit, then came out empty-handed and headed to a supermarket a little further away. This time, she didn't have to run; she strolled slowly and looked extremely relaxed. She even ran into a classmate on the way and chatted for a while.

When Qiyuan returned to her building with a bottle of iced cola, a crowd had already gathered downstairs, pointing and discussing how the fire had started. No one seemed to notice Qiyuan's arrival.

"Ah! My house is on fire? Make way, uncles and aunts, make way! I need to go up and save my mom! My mom is still at home!" Qi Yuan pinched herself hard, tears welling up instantly from the pain, and pushed her way through the crowd to rush up.

Upon hearing Qi Yuan's voice, the onlookers immediately stopped their chatter and rushed over to stop him from rushing forward. Even strangers, upon learning that Qi Yuan was the child of the family whose house had caught fire, joined in to dissuade him.

Qi Yuan struggled fiercely, crying out to save her mother, using all her strength that ten people couldn't hold her back. Just as she was about to reach the entrance of the apartment building, those who hadn't moved downstairs ran over to stop her.

Just as they were struggling, a huge explosion suddenly rang out, shattering the windows of the house into pieces.

Everyone turned to look at the scene at the same time. Broken glass fell from the building and hit the ground. Looking at the spot where they had just been standing, the onlookers who had pulled people away broke out in a cold sweat.

Thank goodness, if they hadn't been held back by Qiyuan, they would have been disfigured.

The shattered glass gleamed blindingly in the sunlight, piercing everyone's hearts. This time, the force pulling Qiyuan down increased. Regardless of whether it was accidental or not, if Qiyuan hadn't insisted on going up to save people and they hadn't come to pull him back, he probably would have been seriously injured.

Qi Yuan's struggles gradually weakened, and she was pulled away by several uncles and aunts. Qi Yuan kept calling out, "My mom is still at home, my mom is still at home..."

Soon, the fire truck arrived and, after extinguishing the fire, carried out Qi Xiaodi, who was already burned beyond recognition. At this time, Qi Xiaodi was already unconscious, his flesh and blood were a mess, and you could still faintly smell the burnt flesh and the smell of burning pig hair.

"What a tragedy..." The grandmother across the street couldn't help but feel sorry for little Qi, whose body was covered in sores. She turned to Qi Yuan and said, "It's a good thing you went to buy your brother a Coke, otherwise... how would your parents survive... sigh..."

When Qi's younger brother was being carried onto the ambulance, Qi's mother finally arrived back. Upon seeing that all the windows of her house were shattered and water was still spraying into the house, Qi's mother quickened her pace.

She lunged at Qi Xiaodi, "Son? Are you alright?" Qi's mother was far away and thought Qi Xiaodi had just been knocked out by the smoke. But as she got closer, she smelled the pungent burning smell and heard Qi Xiaodi's muffled groans.

"Please move aside, family member, don't interfere with our treatment of the patient." The medical staff pulled away Qi's mother and then called for Qi's younger brother to be lifted into the ambulance.

"Mom! Where did you go? I just came back from buying Coke and found the house on fire. I thought... I thought... Mom, you scared me to death." Qi Yuan was still tightly holding the Coke bottle in her hand. The outdoor temperature was high, and a layer of water droplets formed on the Coke bottle, dripping down.

He always acted like a dutiful son in public, but when he saw that his mother was alright, he cried like a baby.

The surrounding crowd couldn't help but shed tears. Qi's mother remained in a daze until she saw her eldest son standing safely in front of her, at which point her eyes gradually cleared.

Qi's mother comforted Qi Yuan and told her to call Qi's father later before getting into the ambulance.

When Qi's father received Qi's call, he rushed back and saw his eldest son looking terrified. He patted his son on the shoulder and then took him to the hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital, the father and son didn't see their younger brother, Qi, who was undergoing emergency treatment. Instead, they saw Qi's mother bustling around paying bills. After finally paying all the fees, Qi's mother and father discussed the matter. Qi's mother would wait at the hospital for news about the surgery, while Qi's father would take Qi Yuan to rent a place and settle him in before going home to check on things.

Qi Yuan remained silent throughout the entire process, obediently following her parents' arrangements. Only after arriving at the newly rented house and her father leaving did Qi Yuan finally break into a smile.

Two months later, the house that had been burned down had been renovated. During these two months, Qi's father had been living a very simple life, going to work and taking care of Qi. He then realized that his eldest son was so easy to take care of and had good grades. He wondered why he had always favored his younger son.

Then Qi Yuan noticed that her father's gaze towards her was increasingly guilty, with a hint of compensation in his eyes. Especially after receiving a phone call from her mother, her father spoke to her much more gently.

A few days after moving home, Qi's mother also brought her younger brother, who had just been discharged from the hospital, home. As soon as she opened the door, Qi's mother saw her younger brother's face covered with scars and couldn't help but show her disgust.

"Mom! Look at my brother, he actually looks down on me!" Qi Xiaodi was already in excruciating pain, and after learning that he was disfigured, he became even more emotionally sensitive, especially concerned about how others looked at him. Now that he saw Qi Yuan's disgusted expression, it would be strange if Qi Xiaodi didn't explode.

For the past two months, Qi's mother had been taking care of her younger brother, and she felt guilty and heartbroken for him. When she heard what her younger brother said, she looked at Qi Yuan with dissatisfaction and was about to scold him when Qi's father pulled her back, and she swallowed the words she was about to say.

"Alright, don't be so sensitive. Your brother would never look down on you. Mom will take you back to your room first." Qi's mother pulled Qi's younger brother into the house and walked inside.

Little Qi still wanted to make a fuss, but he was in a lot of pain and needed to lie down and rest. He suppressed his dissatisfaction and followed his mother inside. When they passed his room, he was still confused.

"Mom, I've already passed my room." Qi Xiaodi's original room was big and spacious, unlike the original owner's room, which was converted from a walk-in closet, and was not only next to Qi's parents' room, but also small and dark.

"Okay, Mom knows. You and your brother can switch rooms. You can stay in your brother's room from now on." Qi's mother meant well and wanted to be closer to her youngest son so that she could hear him if anything happened.

But to Qi Xiaodi, these words meant that he was disfigured and useless, and his parents no longer loved him. Now even his room had been taken away by his older brother. Would his brother also take away his parents' love? What would he do then? Wouldn't he become a pitiful little thing?

Little Qi cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang himself, nearly causing his newly healed skin to burst open. But no matter how much he acted up, his parents refused to let him move back to his original room.

The house was filled with Qi Xiaodi's curses at Qi Yuan, but Qi Yuan ignored them all. He went back to his room, closed the door, put on his headphones, and started studying. He was about to enter his senior year of high school, and once he went to college, he would never come back to this house again.

Even if Qi's father's attitude towards Qi Yuan changes in this life, it won't change the fact that in the previous life, Qi's father and mother watched helplessly as the original owner was killed by Qi's younger brother. So, to let them live out their old age in peace? That's pure fantasy!
