93 Spare My Pride (1/2)

That night, Xiao Luo couldn't fall asleep. He lay awake in bed listening to Zhang Dashan's thunderous snoring. The opportunity Chu Yunxiong was offering him made him feel uncertain. He didn't know whether he should seize it or not. No matter how hard he thought about it, he was unable to come to a decision.

Forget it, don't think about it for now. Anyway, there are still three days left to think about it!

He sighed, opened the Genius System, and began to browse.

The value of his points was not quite 46,000, which allowed him to exchange for most of the abilities in the mall. He adhered to his previous principle of not making exchanges at random. The more points accumulated, the better.

The next day, after buying groceries to prepare a table's worth of tasty dishes for Zhang Dashan, his younger sister, Xiao Ruyi, called.

The first sentence out of her mouth was: ”Brother, you changed your number?”

”Xiao Ruyi, your reaction is way too slow. I sent you a message last night and you only replied this afternoon,” Xiao Luo said, slightly exasperated.

”I've been working the night shift lately. By the way, come over to my place for dinner. Tang Ren and I both miss you,” Xiao Ruyi said coquettishly.

Xiao Luo was doubtful and said, ”Are you sure that you miss me and are not trying to set me up with someone?”

”Hehe! It seems that I can't hide anything from my brother,” Xiao Ruyi replied, grinning.

”You can introduce her to someone else. I don't need it.”

”Brother, I swear to the heavens this she a great girl. She's 22 this year and 5'3” tall. Her looks, well, needless to say, if I've approved her, then it means she's a beautiful woman. She's a good match for you!”

”I…”

”Big brother, you're not allowed to say no. Besides, introducing you to someone is not my main goal. I haven't seen you in a long time, and I miss you,” Xiao Ruyi purred, cajoling as she pushed and pulled. ”If you don't come, then I will call Mom and Dad and tell them that after I got married, my big brother drifted apart from me and doesn't acknowledge me as his sister anymore.”

Xiao Luo smiled helplessly and submitted to her, ”Alright, alright! I'll come over, okay?”

”Hehe. That's my good big brother!” Xiao Ruyi chuckled, pleased with her success.

”What time should we meet?”

”Eight o'clock tonight. I'll meet you outside the hospital's front gate. Big brother, you should sort your hair out. It would be best if you wore a black shirt. You look really handsome in a black shirt.”

Xiao Luo was speechless.

After hanging up the phone, he walked into the hall, where Zhang Dashan was lying on the sofa playing Honor of Kings, and kicked him in the butt.

Zhang Dashan turned and loudly shouted, ”What are you doing? Do you think my butt is sexy or what? Why are you so annoying? I can't even play a game in peace!”

The last sentence reminded Xiao Luo of when Song Dandan played Baiyun.

”Ruyi called and told me to go over to her place, would you like to come?” Xiao Luo asked him while sitting on a stool and putting on his socks.

Zhang Dashan sat up and replied, ”Wait, why are you going over to Sister Luo's?”

”I haven't seen her for a long time, so I'm going over to see her,” Xiao Luo answered calmly.

”Impossible. Based on my understanding of your sister, she must be introducing a girl to you,” Zhang Dashan said, raising his voice.

Xiao Luo looked at him indifferently and remarked, ”Not bad. Even you could guess that.”

”Well, what type of girl have I not seen before? I know how girls think.” Zhang Dashan patted his chest confidently. ”But I thought you were disgusted by blind dates, so why did you agree?”

”As I've already said, it's mainly to see Ruyi. I haven't seen her in a long time,” Xiao Luo replied feeling anxious.
