Villain Seized the Assassin Heroine at the Start! - Chapter 39

“Brother… Why? Don’t you want to watch it with me?”

Li Qingyao stared at Li Mubai with her pair of watery eyes with intense anticipation.

“Um…”

Li Mubai felt troubled.

Would it really not matter to him if he watches this embarrassing movie with her?

“Brother~”

Li Qingyao held Li Mubai’s arm and began to act spoiled.

With her pair of deep and lovely eyes blinking, she playfully looked at him and asked, “I have already taken a day off. You wouldn’t let me watch the movie alone, would you?”

“Alright, fine…”

Li Mubai had no choice but to agree.

It wasn’t like it’d hurt him if he did watch it anyway. So, he decided to watch it with her.

“That’s my Brother! I knew you’d never break your promise!”

Li Qingyao revealed a triumphant smile.

Li Mubai: Who am I? Where am I?

…

Soon, the movie started.

There were many people in the cinema hall.

Although many stole glances at Li Mubai and Li Qingyao’s pair, they didn’t cause any commotion.

After all, except for those nymphomaniac retards, when any normal person sees a handsome man and a beautiful woman together, they would only glance at them in appreciation and would never act out of line.

The lights in the cinema hall went dim and the movie screen lit up.

Li Qingyao clung to Li Mubai’s arm as the movie had officially begun.

The story of the movie was quite simple.

It starts with a high school student named Haruka Kasugano having a ‘warm’ daily life with his stupid sister.

It was simple.

Nothing special.

Far too simple.

Of course, the characters would often shed some tears.

It moves the hearts of the audience.

For instance, Li Qingyao would often turn her head to Li Mubai to see his reaction.

The movie had ended.

It was a happy ending.

Li Qingyao’s face was full of tears.

She grasped Li Mubai’s arm and said, “Brother, you see how well the brother treated his sister, you too should protect your sister the same way…”

Ahem…

Li Mubai squinted his brows.

He always had a feeling that his sister was implying something but he never planned to dig his own grave!

“Brother, we’re already past twenty years old. Didn’t grandpa tell you the secret?”

Seeing that Li Mubai didn’t seem to comprehend what she meant, Li Qingyao couldn’t help but ask.

“What secret?”

Li Mubai frowned.

As Li Qingyao didn’t play an important role in the novel, he had no clue of the secret she was talking about.

“Oops! Just forget it if you don’t know, stupid brother! Li Qingyao’s stupid brother!!!”

Li Qingyao spat out her tongue, pretending to be angry.

As Li Mubai was helpless, he patted her head and promised her with a nod. “Alright, brother promises you to protect you!”

“Hmph!”

Li Qingyao snorted, blinking her pair of tender eyes.

She let out a sly smile resembling a little fox and spoke in a soft yet clear voice, “That’s more like it. Your little sister will protect you too!”

…

After leaving the cinema hall, Li Qingyao dragged Li Mubai to the playground.

Li Qingyao not only followed her grandpa to train in martial arts but also followed Li Mubai’s mother to learn business management.

So, she led a very gloomy life before.

That’s not it.

Even now, she was leading a very gloomy life.

Previously, as Li Mubai was obsessed with Xiao Qingcheng, he never really cared for her.

But now not only did Li Mubai take time to watch a movie with her, but he had also taken the initiative to withdraw from the marriage contract with Xiao Qingcheng. This was why Li Qingyao decided to meet with him.

The two had not been in touch for a long time.

And in their early teenage years, they only shared a normal brother-sister relationship.

Li Mubai was naturally aware of how hard-working Li Qingyao’s been these past few years.

So after they’ve completed watching the movie, when Li Qingyao asked him to accompany her to play in the playground, he very much obliged her.

However, after arriving at the playground, Li Qingyao wanted to ride the carousel and asked him to play along with her.

She wanted Li Mubai to sit behind her.

This was not something Li Mubai could do.

How could he sit on such a small wooden horse?

Li Mubai felt troubled.

“Brother~”

Li Qingyao sat on the wooden horse and threw a pitiful look at Li Mubai. “Didn’t you just say you’d protect your sister? What if I fall down?…”

Li Mubai facepalmed.

She had a cultivation base of late stages of Dark-Jin!

Even if she fell down the carousel, would anyone believe she’d get hurt?

“Brother~”

Li Qingyao began to act spoiled again.

She pitifully looked at Li Mubai and said, “We haven’t played together for so long. You are always like this. You would never fulfill your promise. You don’t even treat me like your sister…”

“If you don’t really want to play with me, you can return back to your Xiao Qingcheng!”

Li Qingyao said ‘bitterly’!

“Huh?…”

Li Mubai felt troubled.

She was his sister. How could he treat her the same as Xiao Qingcheng?

“Fine, fine, I’ll accompany you…”

Li Mubai, at last, complied with her.

Never did he expect that despite being a heavenly destined villain, he would one day be firmly held in his own sister’s palms!

To put it simply, he’d be too embarrassed to mention it…
