Ye Yunxi felt like she was going to die as she ran toward home.
Those legs weren’t hers. She was falling apart.
Exhausted, she needed water…
“I need three physical strength points.”
She didn’t have a choice but to top up Physical Strength.
“Ding! Exchange successful! Current Awesomeness EXP remaining: 280, Physical Strength: 3!”
The moment the exchange was completed, her exhausted body was instantly revived.
She moved her arms and legs; every part of her felt alive even though her muscles were sore and painful.
Whatever. This was better than not being able to move.
The sound of the door being pushed open alerted the people in the house. A good-looking and clean-cut young man dashed out of the house and ran up to Ye Yunxi happily. “Haha, Little Sister, you’re home! How did you do in the exercise? It’s alright even if you had come in last. I used to bottom the list, too. Come, let your Big Brother kiss you, hug you, and raise you up in the air!”
Ever since they were little, Ye Yunji doted on his little sister. To show his position as an older brother, he would often perform this little ritual of a kiss, hug, and raising her up in the air. Except that this time around, when he tried to lift her, he found, to his dismay, that he couldn’t!
Ye Yunji was rendered speechless!
Was it because he was using the wrong position?
With his legs apart, securing his hands under her arms on either side, Ye Yunji drew in a deep breath, held it as he gathered strength, and lifted!
No. She didn’t budge.
“…”
“Haha, don’t fret, Little Sister, let Big Brother try again. I haven’t had dinner, so I may not have enough strength.”
The young man rolled up his sleeves and then garnered all the strength he had as he called out loudly, “Raise you high in the air!”
Still. She didn’t budge.
This… this wasn’t logical!
Why couldn’t he lift her even a bit!!
Ye Yunji was stumped and dismayed. The atmosphere took a sudden dip.
“Erm… I’m sorry, Little Sister, I’m… too weak…”
Ye Yunji looked dejected. As an older brother, he wasn’t able to lift his little sister and throw her into the air!
What sort of Big Brother was he!?
He was a failure as a Big Brother!!!
Seeing how driven to distraction he was, Ye Yunxi rubbed her chin and extended her hands to hold her brother under his arms. Then she lifted him and spun around on the spot before she placed him back on the ground lightly.
Ye Yunji became even more shocked.
What… what happened?
His… his little sister was raising him into the air!!
Was… was that an error?!
“Big Brother, happy now?”
Ye Yunxi had a stern expression on her face, that hint of a smile in her eyes was touching. Ye Yunji was very moved.
His little sister was trying to cheer him up!
That little sister he had always cared for and protected was now trying to cheer him up!
“Uh-huh. If Yunxi is happy, Big Brother is happy!”
“From now on, I’ll be the one to raise Big Brother high up in the air!”
Ye Yunji’s thoughts were now in shambles! “@#¥%…”
“I’d think not! That’s too embarrassing!!!”
“But you’re impressive, it’s only been a few days, and you’ve become this strong!”
Ye Yunji was awed of this novelty, but Ye Yunxi only smiled and said, “Big Brother, from now on, I’ll protect you!”
Although her life had changed, since she had come to occupy this body, this family was hers to protect!
“Ding! Awesomeness EXP +10!”
“Pro… protect me?”
Ye Yunji felt a wave of warm emotions wash over him. He smiled unconsciously as he cast a tender gaze on this willful and independent young lady.
Confident, attractive, and dashing—all these qualities she had lacked in the past were now so evident in her. Ye Yunji’s precious Yunxi was now as dazzling and eye-catching as a polished diamond.
It was strange. What exactly happened during the competition?
