“Oh, oh! Father, don’t just turn and leave! Even if you don’t beg me, it’s fine.”
“If you kiss the tip of my foot, I’ll help you. I can even take off my shoe.”
‘Wait, is this getting even more out of hand?’
Lin Lue thought.
He didn’t look back, fleeing from that troublesome person as fast as he could.
Wen Yaxin watched his departing back, her narrow phoenix eyes squinting, causing the scarlet corners of her eyes to tilt upward.
She chuckled a few times, looked at her palm, licked it, then turned and skipped into the school gates.
“I didn’t expect that little brat Lin Xue’er to have such a handsome and outstanding brother… This is wonderful.”
She loved stealing things that others held dear.
Specifically, watching the expression of someone when everything they cherished was snatched away—the frustration, the rage, and the utter helplessness—was so delicious it made her soul tremble.
That extreme sense of satisfaction was enough to keep her tossing and turning with excitement deep into the night.
Several girls dressed provocatively, carrying a delinquent air, immediately surrounded her to curry favor.
“Boss! Should we go deal with that little girl Lin Xue’er to vent some steam for you?”
“If you like her brother, we can help with that too!”
“You don’t like force and prefer schemes, Boss. We’ve prepared for that as well. The ‘hero saves the beauty’ trope is old, but it always works!”
Listening to the messy ideas of these “worthless advisors,” Wen Yaxin’s eyes remained curved in a smile.
“Oh dear, we mustn’t do that.”
“You’ll die, you know.”
“Huh? Boss, what do you mean?”
Wen Yaxin offered no explanation.
Her smile remained unchanged as she walked straight into the campus.
The girls looked at one another, and though their hearts were full of confusion, they hurriedly followed her.
—
Lin Lue walked quickly away from the main gate of the Witch Academy.
What made him eager to leave wasn’t just Wen Yaxin’s “Daddy” harassment.
More importantly, the System in his mind was experiencing abnormal fluctuations.
[Detected that the host has become a First-Order Witch, escaping the fate of being dragged into a deep alley by female hooligans to be used as a toy. The novice adaptation period has officially ended.]
[Detection of favorability progress shows no advancement for a long period. To assist the host in completing captures more efficiently and enjoying a life of leisure, Weakness Mode is now automatically enabled.]
[Weakness Mode: Generates corresponding tasks based on the target’s inner desires.]
[New Target Added: Lin Xue’er.]
‘What the…?’
‘My sister can’t become a target for the System.’
Lin Lue cursed in his heart.
The previous System had been quite useful, but now it was pulling this Weakness Mode stunt.
He intended to strictly control his Affection Level.
However, Lin Lue reconsidered.
The tasks issued by the System would likely come with rewards.
Right now, the priority was to figure out Lin Xue’er’s life at school.
Thinking about how his sister suffered at school but never told him, always enduring in silence and only sneaking into the bathroom to cry when she couldn’t take it anymore…
Lin Lue felt his anger reach its limit!
Therefore, Lin Lue made a bold decision!
He would sneak into the Witch Academy!
Lin Lue circled the academy and found a spot, crouching by the perimeter wall.
Calling upon his Space Power, he obscured those “monitoring gadgets.”
He leaped!
Fortunately, he had successfully awakened and become a First-Order Witch.
His physical fitness far exceeded that of an ordinary person.
He easily scaled the high wall and flipped over silently.
His goal was clear.
Find the relevant teachers, or ideally meet the principal directly, to ask about his sister’s true situation at school and find out exactly what she had experienced.
Lin Lue’s movements were light, making almost no sound as he landed.
But at the moment of landing, he collided with a soft mass.
His center of gravity shifted, and he fell heavily onto the grass with a thud.
He rubbed his head and climbed up, surprised to find that it didn’t hurt.
Looking down, Lin Lue’s face froze.
There was a little girl pinned beneath him?!
She was lying face down on the ground, motionless.
Her two small feet were encased in white stockings, but she was barefoot.
Small shoes lay scattered nearby, messy and overturned.
‘Oh no, did I crush her to death?!’
“Little sister! Are you okay?! Wake up!”
Lin Lue reached out in a panic and carefully lifted her up.
She was about 1.4 meters tall.
Her silver-white hair was incredibly smooth and so long that it could wrap around her calves several times.
She wore an exquisite white and purple Lolita dress, complete with small white lace gloves and a lace collar around her neck tied with a small purple bow.
Her face was as delicate as carved jade, with a youthful, childish countenance.
Her eyes were closed, and she gave no reaction.
Lin Lue kept shaking her, his heart in his throat.
No response at all!
Gurgle…
A strange “ringing” sound came from the little girl’s stomach.
Following that, her long silver eyelashes fluttered gently.
She slowly opened them, her clear purple eyes staring at the twitching corner of Lin Lue’s mouth.
She wiggled her white-stockinged feet, which were slightly pinkish and dangled without touching the ground.
Her voice was soft and waxy, carrying a hint of weakness.
“Hungry… so hungry…”
A light breeze blew by, carrying away Lin Lue’s internal chaos.
Lin Lue let out a long sigh of relief.
So she hadn’t been crushed; she had just fainted from hunger.
—
Lin Lue leaned against the wall, sitting on the grass.
He helplessly allowed the little girl to kneel on his thighs.
The little girl was extremely spoiled.
She refused to let her feet touch the ground, insisting, “You crushed me, you made my shoes fly off, and I don’t want to wear them now. You have to take responsibility.”
Lin Lue couldn’t argue and could only indulge her.
In the end, his moral compass was too high, allowing him to be manipulated by a little girl barely 1.4 meters tall.
She refused to sit normally and insisted on kneeling.
It was only because she was petite enough that she could successfully maintain such a difficult posture.
She took small bites of food, her pink cheeks puffing out.
In her hands were several pastries Lin Lue had found on his person.
Lin Lue watched her clear them out like a whirlwind.
She looked cute, but her eating habits were quite messy.
Lin Lue reached out helplessly and wiped away the pastry crumbs sticking to the corners of her mouth.
Quite a few had fallen onto her skirt, and Lin Lue, who was a bit of a neat freak, couldn’t help himself.
“Should I help you brush off your skirt?”
The little girl didn’t speak.
She just stared at him silently with those round purple eyes.
Lin Lue tentatively reached out.
She didn’t make a sound or resist as he slowly brushed the crumbs from her skirt.
His fingertips touched the fabric, sensing an indescribable silkiness.
It was the feeling of something expensive.
Lin Lue felt somewhat fortunate.
Fortunately, he hadn’t hurt this little girl, and she seemed lazy by nature; otherwise, there might have been trouble.
Nine out of ten Lolitas were wealthy, and the last one was filthy rich.
The saying did not lie.
“Are you full?”
“Mhm.”
“Then tell Big Brother, what is your name?”
The little girl stared at him blankly for a few seconds.
Suddenly, she jumped off his lap, her white-stockinged feet stepping onto the grass as she hooked her small finger at him.
‘Huh?’
Lin Lue thought she was going to whisper her name to him, so he leaned in.
The next second, the little girl stood on her tiptoes and leaped, pouncing onto his back.
She clung to him tightly, her arms like warm jade smelling faintly of fragrance as they hooked around his neck.
She rested her head in the crook of his neck and closed her eyes in satisfaction.
“Full. Sleeping.”
Lin Lue’s face was the picture of exhaustion.
