Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 924 - 274: [Mental Realm Shift]

Lu Sisi looked at her brother in surprise.

Her brother lowered his eyes and quickly said, "I brought my backpack, my homework is all in it, I can do it at night when we go back.

Yeah, tomorrow is Saturday, I can also do my homework tomorrow."

After a pause, her brother’s voice became even lower: "They might argue again after they get back.

Or... dad might not come home tonight, and mom will just tell me to go to my room without talking to me..."

Saying this, the boy looked up with hopeful, cautious eyes at Lu Sisi.

Lu Sisi pursed her lips.

"Okay!"

·

Lu Sisi stepped aside to call Lu Xiuting, telling her that she was taking her brother home for the night and would return him the next day.

Lu Sisi knew that Lu Xiuting wouldn’t refuse her. She had come to understand that her mother needed something from Chen Yan, so wouldn’t reject her request.

As for Yang Jiaming...

Lu Sisi didn’t even care about Lu Xiuting anymore, so why would she care about Yang Jiaming?

Let Lu Xiuting deal with Yang Jiaming.

In the evening at Chen Yan’s villa.

After Lu Sisi entered with her brother, he was initially a bit restrained, but his eyes showed even more joy at the newfound freedom.

Lu Sisi first took her brother to a guest room on the second floor, letting him wash up and handing him a set of new home clothes.

Soon, her brother came out to the living room wearing the home clothes that were visibly too big for him, his hair damp.

This set of home clothes belonged to Chen Yan, but he had never worn it, just bought and washed, keeping it in the closet as spare.

Lu Sisi could see that her brother was actually very thin.

The siblings sat on the sofa in the living room, turned on the TV, and Lu Sisi searched for a Naruto anime on her phone to cast onto the screen.

They ate chips, drank juice, occasionally burst into laughter, and occasionally chatted and made fun of the show.

Late at night, Lu Sisi turned off the TV, called Gui Geng over, and had him carry the already sleepy-eyed brother back to the guest room to sleep.

In the morning, when Lu Sisi got up, she originally thought of going downstairs to make breakfast for her brother.

But when she went downstairs, she saw that her brother was already up, running around and shouting in the yard outside.

Lu Sisi stepped out to the yard and saw her brother running around a fruit tree in the corner of the yard, seemingly chasing something.

Looking closely, Lu Sisi was taken aback.

Her brother was surprisingly playing with a puppy.

It was a small puppy with brown and gray fur.

Clearly still a puppy, it stumbled as it ran, its cries sharp and thin.

It looked like a mix with a mongrel ancestry.

Beside her, Gui Geng walked quietly to Lu Sisi’s side and said softly, "Young Master Yang got up very early, he didn’t dare to disturb your sleep, so he went downstairs alone, and I took him out to buy breakfast. I also brought back some fried dough sticks and soy milk for you."

After a pause, Gui Geng smiled and said, "On our way back, we saw this puppy in the community—probably an abandoned dog, wandering outside, mated with other stray dogs, and had puppies. I saw it a few days ago, but last time there were three or four, and today I only saw this one, I suspect it got separated from its pack.

Young Master Yang seemed to like it and couldn’t walk away.

I thought, it doesn’t hurt to bring it back for a day, and when Young Master Yang leaves, we can find the mother dog and return it... or if we can’t find it, we’ll take it to a shelter and spend some money to send it there.

But spending a little money or time in exchange for Young Master Yang’s happiness for a day is worth it."

Lu Sisi nodded, just watching her brother smiling as he held up the little puppy with both hands.

In the morning, Lu Sisi called her brother back from playing in the yard for a long time, ordering him to wash his hands and obediently do his homework.

Watching her brother lying on the dining table in the living room working on math problems, Lu Sisi thought for a moment and then personally took the small dog to the bathroom to give it a bath.

However, after bathing the dog and trying to blow it dry, she encountered some difficulties.

The little puppy seemed very resistant to the sound of the hairdryer, squirming and struggling constantly.

But... Gui Geng took over this task.

In Gui Geng’s hands, the little dog became unusually docile, curling up and staying still.

"I have Demonic Qi on me, it doesn’t dare to resist me," Gui Geng explained softly.

·

In the afternoon, when sending her brother home, inside the car, her brother was still talking and laughing, but as the car got closer to the Yang Family, he gradually fell silent.

"It’s okay, you can always message me on WeChat anytime. If you want to eat something or come out to play in the future, just tell me." Lu Sisi patted her brother’s hair.

"Then... can we go to Haidilao next time?"

"Of course." Lu Sisi smiled.

After sending her brother back to the Yang Family, as expected, Yang Jiaming wasn’t home, saying he was at the company—even on a Saturday, whether it’s true or not is unknown.

But Lu Sisi certainly didn’t bother to care about these things.

When her brother entered the room to do his homework, Lu Sisi sat in the living room facing Lu Xiuting. She looked at her mother’s face, which had obviously lost its luster.

Suddenly, from deep within, a feeling of relief completely eased Lu Sisi’s heart.

"In the future, there’s no need to deliberately organize those family dinners and gatherings, I’m not interested in attending, nor am I interested in doing those things anymore." Lu Sisi looked at Lu Xiuting, "Mom, whatever agreement you have with Chen Yan, I’ll tell him, this is my own decision."
