97 The Wick (1/2)
Staring at the hundred over verification messages on screen, Mo Wen's lips twitched.
He scrolled through the messages. All of them were:
”Brother Mo, I am Yun Xiaoman.”, ”Brother Mo, I am Yun Xiaoman, please add me.”, ”Brother Mo, are you not around?”, ”Brother Mo, where are you? It's been eight days.”, ”Brother Mo, please add me. Pretty, pretty please.”
Towards the end, the messages had turned into:
”Brother Mo, I hate you.”, ”Bastard, you didn't keep your promise.”, ”Woo woo, I am begging you. Please add me.”…
Mo Wen's lips twitched. It had only been a little over a month. Logically the poison in her grandfather's body should not have relapsed yet. Why was she looking for him so urgently?
If there was no accident, Yun Xiaoman's grandfather wouldn't have another episode again in such a short time. He was quite confident about it.
After adding Yun Xiaoman, Mo Wen clicked on another message box.
The Wick: Little brother, it has been a while since you have come to pay your respects to me.
The Wick: Where have you been?
The Wick: Have you, by chance, reincarnated?
...
The Wick: Your elder sister is dying. If you don't show yourself, you might not be able to meet me for the last time.
The Wick: Such an unfilial kid. I was expecting you to burn me some joss paper when I die. Now it seems like I will need to burn some joss paper for you.
…
Mo Wen's lips twitched. This Wick. What else could he expect from a hog but a grunt?
He replied right away: I didn't reincarnate, but I was reborn.
The Wick was a friend that he knew from the Internet two years ago. For Mo Wen who was seldom online, she was his only friend from the Internet.
One day, the Wick asked him how old he was. He was sixteen at that time, but he pretended to be older and said he was 35 years old.
In the end the Wick replied instantly: You are only 35. I am 53 already. From now on, you can call me Big Sister.”
After that, she started referring to herself as his big sister…
The Wick: The corpse has come alive!
It had only been two minutes before the reply message came in.
The Wick: Little Brother, have you been reading too many time travel novels? Perform your reborn skill in front of me.
Two messages came in almost instantaneously.
Mo Wen: Why are you not dead yet? Didn't you say you are dying?
Mo Wen never needed to hold back when faced with the Wick's scurrilous remarks.
The Wick: Such a disloyal and unfilial brat. Are you wishing for your Big Sister's death? If I die, I will make sure I bring you along as my servant to the Netherworld.
The Wick: Huh? You are in Charm City?
Mo Wen: How do you know?
