Chapter 84: 999 Ways to Eat Your Villain Roommate "29"

447 looked at Sui An, who was about to cry, and spoke with a mix of helplessness and sympathy:

[Xiao Momo... why are you picking on Sui Sui? He's still so little.]

To Sui An, Shi Mo's question was basically like asking him which parent he'd choose if his mom and dad got divorced.

Meanwhile, Yun Shiqi, who was outside the door, had clearly overheard Shi Mo and quickly spoke up:

"A Mo, let's talk this out properly. Sui Sui is still so little, he can't be without..."

His voice cut off abruptly.

Yun Shiqi went silent. Yun Shiqi was confused.

Wait, why did that sound kind of weird?

Sui An's eyes were welling up with tears: "Are we... really gonna be separated?"

Shi Mo: "Yeah, it's 'cause your big brother won't behave."

Sui An bit his lip, looking torn, then his gaze turned firm: "I... I wanna go with brother!"

Even though big brother would bring him little cakes, and he really liked that.

But if he had to pick one, he'd still pick brother!

Brother not only let him sleep in his bed and gave him a name, but he also held him every night when he slept.

Because of what he'd been through before, he hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time. Even when he had time to sleep, he'd be jolted awake by nightmares.

But when he slept with brother, he only had good dreams.

Before long, he'd almost completely forgotten those bad memories.

All of this was because of brother...

Compared to that big brother, he liked brother way more.

As Sui An thought this, his gaze grew more determined, and even the ears on top of his head perked up, the tips twitching:

"I! Like brother the most! Wherever brother goes, I'm going!"

Shi Mo was caught off guard by his firm expression and tone, and couldn't help but pinch the soft flesh on his cheek with a smile:

"You trust brother that much? What if brother runs out of money one day and sells you?"

Sui An hesitated for a moment, then said in a small voice:

"Then... then brother, don't go too far. I can secretly run back, so brother can sell me a few more times!"

Hearing this, Shi Mo felt a complicated feeling he couldn't quite describe. He lowered his eyes and ruffled Sui An's hair,

"Don't worry, brother won't run out of money. And even if that day ever came, I wouldn't sell you."

Sui An tilted his head, confused: "Then who would you sell?"

Shi Mo thought for a moment: "Hmm... sell your big brother, and then buy you a big cake with the money."

Yun Shiqi, who'd been eavesdropping outside the door the whole time: "???"

447 chuckled and said, [When are we selling him? I'll go grab a sack.]

Yun Shiqi pulled out his phone with a blank expression and texted his friend:

"Order me a strawberry cake. Make it three layers... make it five layers. I'll pick it up today."

YL: "...?"

YL: "Yun Shiqi, are you out of your damn mind?"

YL: "I admit it was wrong to use your identity to go to the club before, but I helped you look into all the people and stuff you asked about."

YL: "And then you go and tell him about it!"

YL: "I can't even leave my room right now, let alone order you a cake! The only reason I even have my phone is 'cause I agreed to a bunch of crazy demands from him to get it back!"

YL: "Are you crazy? Are you crazy? Are you crazy?! You got me into this mess, and you have the nerve to ask me to order you a cake?!"

Yun Shiqi: "..."

Yun Shiqi hesitated slightly: "I didn't tell him about your thing."

Even though he was indeed a bit angry, he wouldn't actually do something like betray a friend.

YL: "Heh, yeah right, like I'd believe that."

Yun Shiqi didn't reply to YL anymore, instead staring at his phone in brief thought.

No wonder he hadn't been able to get a hold of YL much lately. He'd assumed the association had assigned him a new mission, but it turned out he'd been locked up by that guy.

But the only people who knew about this were him and YL, and also Tianyi Club.

However, Tianyi Club had so many customers every day, and the people there wouldn't be bored enough to specifically check whether the person using his identity card was actually him.

So it must've been that guy who found out about what YL had been doing outside on his own...

After figuring this out, Yun Shiqi stopped dwelling on it.

And just then, the bathroom door opened.

Yun Shiqi immediately put away his phone and looked at Shi Mo, who was carrying Sui An out, and offered him a smile:

"A Mo."

Shi Mo gave him a cold look: "What? Haven't packed your stuff yet?"

And because of what Shi Mo had said earlier, Sui An no longer proactively reached out to grab Yun Shiqi like before. Instead, he crossed his arms, gave a light huff, and turned his head away.

He'd thought it through—if brother and big brother really had to separate, then big brother must've done something wrong!

Otherwise, how could someone as good as brother not want him?

Big brother had turned into bad brother, and he wasn't gonna acknowledge him!

447, who knew the whole truth, also found Yun Shiqi hard to stomach. Sitting on Sui An's head, he crossed his arms and turned his head away almost in perfect sync with Sui An.

He hadn't been able to find out about this, yet Yun Shiqi had managed to—it made him look useless.

There was indeed a little bit... but he would never admit it!

"A Mo, don't be like this. I just haven't figured out how to tell you yet."

Yun Shiqi said with another sigh, even his gaze turning complicated.

Last night, he had just taken on a temporary mission.

The mission target was very close to him. He could have skipped it, but since it was a temporary mission without any additional gear, capturing that beastman would double the reward.

In the past, he would have given up, but now he figured he should save up more for a marriage fund, so he took the mission.

Yet he never expected that after finishing the mission and sneaking back over the wall, he would see the person entering through the back door.

Although that person had changed his face, he could tell that it was the chameleon who had previously taken on Shi Mo's appearance.

His powerful psychic power had made him highly sensitive to these beastmen since childhood.

After realizing this, Yun Shiqi didn't tip off the chameleon but quietly followed instead, only to discover that the person headed straight for Old Master Shi's study.

He initially thought the person was going to attack Old Master Shi, but never expected...

Yun Shiqi recalled the scene he had secretly observed last night and couldn't help shutting his eyes.

He could see how much Shi Mo respected and cared for his grandfather.

He also knew that during this time, Shi Mo had been searching for that chameleon and Yun Munan because of this incident.

If Shi Mo were to find out that the chameleon who framed him was actually one of his beloved grandfather's people...

Yun Shiqi didn't dare imagine how Shi Mo would react upon learning this news.

That was also why he had been hesitating to tell Shi Mo.

He didn't want to hurt Shi Mo, but he also wanted him to know the truth.

Last night, he had followed that chameleon but ended up discovering a place that shocked him even more deeply.
