The Fake Heiress and Her Five Villainous Brothers

Chapter 33

The next morning, Yuan Luoyi saw Yuan's Mother. She seemed to have just returned from a tropical country, with a slightly tanned complexion and wearing a colorful necklace, smiling brightly.

Yuan's Mother took out a hand-woven necklace: "Darling, this is a gift I brought for you from my trip."

Yuan Luoyi didn't care about the gift. She hugged Yuan's Mother tightly, burying her face in her clothes, whimpering, struggling to hold back her tears.

Thank goodness Yuan's Mother was still alive. Although she wasn't Yuan Luoyi's biological mother, even when she was on the verge of death, she still called for Yuan Luoyi to escape, showing that she truly cared for her.

Yuan's Mother was surprised but mostly delighted. It had been a long time since her little daughter had been so clingy with her.

Yuan's Mother sat on a stool and let Yuan Luoyi sit on her lap. She cupped Yuan Luoyi's little face with her hands: "What's wrong? You look so distressed. Did your brothers bully you?"

Yuan Luoyi said, "No, I just missed you."

Yuan's Mother smiled and said, "You little sweet-talker! What do you want? Mom will buy it for you right away!"

Yuan Luoyi leaned softly against Yuan's Mother's shoulder: "I just want Mom."

Yuan's Mother was overjoyed. She gently patted Yuan Luoyi's back: "Okay! I won't take any more long-term overseas work assignments! Mom will stay and keep you company for a while!"

Yuan Luoyi indulged in being affectionate with Yuan's Mother. Although it seemed a bit childish, she really did miss her mother.

It wasn't until almost 7:30 that she reluctantly got into the car to go to school, and on the way, she received some unfortunate news: today, her fourth brother Yuan Si was going to Star Galaxy Middle School.

Oh no, that lazy and narcissistic man was back from Paris, and his fans would surely come too. Yuan Luoyi dreaded his fans the most - they were too fanatical.

Yuan Luoyi opened her phone. The current trending topic was "Super popular star Yuan Si is going to Star Galaxy Middle School!"

As always, the comments below were full of praise from fans. Yuan Si's fans' craziness was infamous all over the world. No one dared to badmouth Yuan Si in the comments, because these fans were truly capable of retaliating in real life.

Yuan Luoyi didn't interact much with her fourth brother. He had debuted at the age of fourteen and had always been busy, rarely coming home.

However, Yuan Luoyi knew that Yuan Si had strange values. While other members of the Yuan family disliked interacting with the general public, Yuan Si enjoyed it.

He was like a chameleon, quickly judging others' preferences, then transforming himself into what they liked, carefully manipulating their emotions. Sometimes he would put them up on a pedestal, other times he would throw them down to the ground.

Yuan Luoyi often felt that her fourth brother was a green tea bitch, shamelessly acting that way toward both women and men. But she was certain that Yuan Si would never fall in love, because every second of every minute, he loved only himself - an absolute narcissist.

In Yuan Si's own words: "Look at them, how entertaining they are. To gain a little favor from me, they go crazy, collapse, and kneel to offer me everything. Just a little kindness from me, and they're blissful as if in heaven, proving that my perfect self is their god."

There was no doubt that the word "kindness" did not exist in Yuan Si's heart. He knew how to become charming and manipulate people's hearts, satisfying his almost pathological desire for control.

Exiting the trending topic, Yuan Luoyi checked her main account, which now had over sixty million followers, but her homepage still only had one post.

"Ahh, why hasn't she posted anything new?"

"Please, post anything, I don't care what!"

"Director Zhang! Why don't you film more of Yuan Luoyi? I'm only watching this reality show because of her!"

Yuan Luoyi sighed softly and exited her main account.

She didn't know how to interact with her fans and even felt that their adoration was a bit of a nuisance.

Yuan Luoyi was well aware that they only liked the Yuan Luoyi they imagined, not her true self. Pandering to fans made her feel uneasy. Since investigating the murder case was already exhausting, she just wanted to slack off in other aspects of her life and let things happen naturally.

The system's setting was that she would continue to level up as long as she kept slacking off.

Thinking of this, Yuan Luoyi suddenly became curious - if one day she didn't slack off, how would the system react?

Hmm, that was an interesting topic. She could experiment with it in the future.

When she arrived at school, Yuan Luoyi put on her backpack and headed to Class D.

Many students had watched the previous day's physical education class battle royale, where Yuan Luoyi's impressive performance had amazed quite a few people. So when Yuan Luoyi appeared at the school gate, they looked at her curiously.

"It's her, it's really her! I'm so lucky to run into her on the way to school! Should I go say hi?"

"Idiot, snap out of it! That's the Yuan family's precious daughter!"

"Yeah, she can take out the school hottie Sen Junxuan with just one shot, and she could do the same to us, maybe even with real guns!"

The students couldn't figure out Yuan Luoyi's personality, so they didn't dare approach her, only quietly observing her from afar, like an honor guard performing some strange ritual of acknowledgment.

As Yuan Luoyi was walking quickly toward the cafeteria, a girl from Class C suddenly ran over, respectfully bowed to Yuan Luoyi, then turned and ran away, leaving Yuan Luoyi somewhat confused.

Watching the girl's retreating back, Yuan Luoyi remembered that this girl had also greeted her at the reality show's opening ceremony.

Had Yuan Luoyi done anything to her?

Hmm... it didn't seem like it. Yuan Luoyi didn't even know the girl's name.

Yuan Luoyi gave up thinking about it. Ever since she started slacking off, people's attitudes toward her had been constantly changing. It wasn't too strange for a student or two to occasionally appear and orbit around her.

Especially after yesterday's PE class, the entire school's teachers and students had noticed her change.

A woman was standing at the entrance to Class D. She was wearing a black suit, sunglasses, and had a tall, upright posture that immediately gave the impression of someone highly capable in combat.

Her face turned toward Yuan Luoyi, and she said politely, "You must be Yuan Luoyi."

Yuan Luoyi said, "Yes."

The woman said, "I'm Mr. Yuan Si's assistant. He asked me to escort you to his resting room."

Yuan Luoyi said, "Um... can I not go?"

The woman took two steps toward Yuan Luoyi and pleaded, "Please, you must go. I'm just a working stiff, you know. Mr. Yuan Si likes to have everything under his control. If you don't go, he'll blame me."

So, ten minutes later, Yuan Luoyi stood glumly in Yuan Si's resting room.

He was lying on the couch, sleeping. Upon hearing Yuan Luoyi's arrival, he lazily got up, brushing aside the messy hair falling over his forehead as he yawned.

He had a pair of beautiful, peach-blossom eyes that seemed full of tenderness, but were ice-cold deep within. The corners of his mouth always carried a subtle smile, making it seem like he was friendly, even when he had utterly devoured someone, leaving them still believing him to be a kind person.

When he looked at Yuan Luoyi, a glint of delight appeared in Yuan Si's eyes. He walked up to Yuan Luoyi and tightly embraced her, ignoring her struggles.

This was why Yuan Luoyi disliked interacting with Yuan Si - he always treated her like a doll, hugging or cuddling her whenever he wanted, with no sense of personal space!
