Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 673: Wen Li: Smile

Tantai Yi returned home and passed through the living room, spotting a frizzled Tuanzi.

Because she frequently cuts her hair, Tuanzi’s hair is typically shoulder-length. For convenience while exercising, she often ties it in a single ponytail or two buns. Occasionally, she lets it hang loose out of laziness. If someone like Gu Cheng or Tantai Yi, who are skilled with their hands, are around, they will intricately braid her hair into various beautiful styles.

Tantai Yi remembered that before he left, he helped braid her hair, but now the little junior sister had loose hair, and the outermost layer of her black hair was frizzled.

This is a symptom of inner strength leaking.

He walked over and patted the frizzled hair on Tuanzi’s head, and the frizzled hair obediently settled back into place.

"What happened?"

"Ugh."

With a sad face, Tuanzi pouted and said gloomily, "Brother Wen Li told a scary story that scared Miaomiao!"

[Ancient Martial System: Actually, he only told the beginning.]

The system didn’t have much of a fear sense; it only heard the beginning, and the host hung up the phone. Now, it’s quite curious why those adventurers turned into rabbits, what secrets lie in the ancient castle, and if the adventurers’ food was the previous batch of those who got lost?

Tuanzi gave a heavy "hmph" to express dissatisfaction.

Tantai Yi hadn’t read Wen Li’s works, but during the last celebration, Gu Yunmu said he would buy Wen Li’s books to support him. Gu Chi then chimed in, suggesting Gu Yunmu should read one or two of the works first.

Gu Yunmu is a man of action; he curled up on the sofa for half an hour and then screamed non-stop, leading the passing residents to think their home was playing pig slaughter videos.

From Gu Yunmu’s reaction, Tantai Yi concluded that Wen Li’s stories are very scary.

"It’s his fault."

Tantai Yi patted Tuanzi’s little head again.

"Knowing you’re afraid, he deliberately told you."

Tuanzi grumbled.

"His inspiration should be curbed!"

How could he think of such a story just from seeing rabbit dances? What is Wen Li cousin’s head made of? All horror movies?

Tuanzi squirmed a few times on the sofa, hugging Tantai Yi’s waist, whining pitifully, "Miaomiao won’t be able to sleep tonight."

[Ancient Martial System: But you’ve never had insomnia.]

[Miaomiao: ...] 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

The system suddenly realized; the host just wanted to act cute, and thus it stopped talking.

Looking quietly up, finding Tantai Yi slightly furrowing his brows as if troubled, Tuanzi seized the moment and said, "Third Brother, can you tell Miaomiao a story tonight?"

"Those storybooks of yours?"

"Miaomiao’s already finished reading them," Tuanzi’s eyes were bright, filled with anticipation, "Miaomiao wants to hear your heroic tales."

Tantai Yi’s tone became dry, "My stories aren’t worth telling; met bad guys, defeated bad guys, that’s it."

Tuanzi shook her head vigorously.

Tantai Yi had no choice but to reorganize his supposedly mundane experiences.

That night, Tuanzi heard many stories and only then fell soundly asleep.

Tantai Yi tucked her small blanket in, then left the room.

Back in his own room, he took out his phone, searched for Wen Li’s pen name, and chose to read the counterpart’s electronic works.

"...The man’s arms seemed to be devoured by unknown creatures, he and his companion showed fear...From the depths of the corridor came heavy footsteps, with large body bats appearing before the owner of the footsteps, weaving a dense black net within which flickered red lights, pouncing towards..."

Tantai Yi remained expressionless throughout.

The system, which divided some attention here, thought that this fellow brother is ruthless!

The next day at dawn.

Tuanzi went downstairs with a messy hairdo, and when she passed through the living room, she saw the white-haired, gold-eyed man waving at her. She immediately dashed over, obediently brought a stool, and sat in front of Tantai Yi.

The man skillfully braided a flower bun for her, "Know yourself and your enemy, a hundred battles, a hundred victories. Today are you going to read Wen Li’s works together?"

Tuanzi wrinkled her brows and thought deeply.

She was very curious, yet afraid of being scared; she was the type that wanted to watch but didn’t dare to.

Last time, while watching with Gu Yunmu, Yun Mu brother would always scream in fright. She was initially not that scared but was influenced to some degree. Let’s switch to third brother; third brother must be steady, and she would be too.

"Sure, after we eat, we’ll watch together."

After breakfast, the siblings ran outside, nestling on the same lounge chair to read novels.

On the third floor, Duan Xiayou looked down and found his lounge chair occupied again, decisively curling up in his bedroom not going out.

But before long, Ji Zhangzhuo came knocking.

"Senior brother, open the door, I’ve discovered a secret!"

The word ’secret’ is particularly tempting; even though Duan Xiayou always despises Ji Zhangzhuo’s chatter, he honestly opened the door and let him in.

"You better not keep me in suspense."

Duan Xiayou had already prepared for mutual destruction, threatening in low voices, "At worst, we both lose face."

It implied both asking Zhen Haowei to cook in trying to outsmart each other.

Earlier, Ji Zhangzhuo danced the rabbit dance, while Duan Xiayou frog jumped around the neighborhood. Maybe next time, the two will do even more goofy actions in front of the camera.

Ji Zhangzhuo laughed mischievously, not taking the threat seriously.

"It’s related to master..."

Ji Zhangzhuo deliberately made a mystery, "Last night, the third brother told stories to the little sister, after listening, I felt something isn’t right, third brother seems to have lived always in master’s era..."

Downstairs, Tuanzi and Tantai Yi were reading novels together.

When seeing a terrifying scene, Tuanzi was about to cover her eyes, overhead sounded Tantai Yi’s cool and pleasant voice.

"Actually, this scene was deliberately created by a player, a villain, preparing to..."

Tuanzi’s eyes widened.

"Th-Third brother, are you spoiling the plot?"

Tantai Yi puzzled, "What is a spoiler?"

He just genuinely felt explaining the truth behind the horror scenes would dissipate the scary atmosphere.

The terrifying atmosphere did disappear, but so did the fun.

Tuanzi opened her little mouth, hesitating to speak.

After thinking for a while, she swallowed the words and showed a smile, "Wow, after hearing what third brother said, Miaomiao isn’t afraid anymore."

She pointed at another part on the tablet.

"Just felt this window looked odd; is there a secret?"

"Uh, actually..."

The system silently watched the scene.

The third brother really spoils the host, and the host not telling truth, also quite spoils the third brother.

After getting spoilers all morning, Tuanzi took out her phone, boldly sending Wen Li a voice message.

"Hahaha, Miaomiao is not afraid of your novels now, not scary at all. If you have the skill, write something scarier?"

Shortly after sending, Wen Li responded with a smile emoji.

Tuanzi trembled slightly.

She timidly pushed the phone aside, then straightened up facing third brother’s gaze, "Wen Li brother is really polite, Miaomiao challenged him, yet he replied with a smiling emoji!"

[Ancient Martial System: You really don’t know the smiley emoji means ’heh’?]

Tuanzi pouted and remained silent.

But Tantai Yi considered a smile as simply a smile, without seeing behind the emoji’s subtlety, nodding in agreement.
