Of course, in the end, Jiang Si didn’t really manage to shake off Keke and go to the Cyan Cloud Sect.

Over there, Bingtang was definitely keeping an eye on Keke, the Ice Crystal monitor above her head never disappeared.

Jiang Si basically could guess that Bingtang brought him to the mall, deliberately arranging a situation for him to meet Keke there.

Upon hearing that he was going to ask about Full Bloom’s results, Bingtang was startled, repeatedly saying that it hadn’t been fully analyzed yet, advising him to go over later and first take Keke home to comfort her.

Keke just directly hugged his arm and started crying, without saying a word, just crying.

The onlookers were increasing, and the looks they gave became more and more strange.

Jiang Si could only lift Keke up first, take her luggage from before, and head home.

He previously asked her to take a taxi back because Jiang Si was reluctant to spend the money; he could run faster than the car, so spending that money was a pure waste, but Keke taking a taxi with her own earnings was no problem.

The salary from the Disaster Strategy Bureau wasn’t low.

But now, this girl obviously didn’t want to take a taxi, so Jiang Si had to take her and run.

"Brother, I can’t run anymore."

After just a few steps, Keke, with red eyes, pulled his hand, panting heavily, "I haven’t slept recently..."

"Transform."

"Eh...?"

"Why not transform?"

Keke stared blankly at Jiang Si, "Here, but this is the street..."

"Then find a secluded place to transform."

Dragging Keke along, he was about to find a secluded corner for her to transform.

Unexpectedly, Keke refused stubbornly, just clinging tightly to his arm, "No, I don’t want to transform!"

So troublesome.

Keke wasn’t this troublesome before.

Although she spoke very little, she was very obedient and well-behaved.

Why did she suddenly become so troublesome now?

Is this the rebellious phase?

"Then take a taxi..."

Pay for it yourself.

Originally intended to say this, but Keke’s voice turned soft and pitiful, "Brother, carry me."

This was indeed a way to save money.

When parents were still around, whenever the family went out for fun, it was always Jiang Si carrying Keke.

Because their father was very weak, carrying for a while would leave him breathless, whereas Jiang Si had no problem carrying her.

The problem is.

"You’re so grown up, and you still want to be carried?"

It’s not like you don’t have legs.

However, Keke tearfully said, "I don’t care, I don’t care, carry me, I can’t walk anymore!"

Even Jiang Si was stunned for a while.

Has this girl gone mad?

Jiang Si instinctively reached out to feel her forehead, but she didn’t have a fever?

Possessed or something?

"You used to carry me before..."

That was long ago; since their parents passed away, they basically had no contact.

Even when doing laundry, Keke would separate clothes, afraid that touching his would make them dirty. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

It wasn’t unusual for a girl to love cleanliness, and teenage girls would feel uncomfortable with contact with the male members of the family, which was normal.

What was abnormal was now, it seemed like reverting back.

Concerned she might be sick, Jiang Si squatted down.

This brain is most likely broken; better to take her to the hospital to check.

Keke had always feared going to hospitals since she was little, and if told directly, she would likely say nothing was wrong, so it was easier to carry her over.

Find a way to give her an injection...

Keke jumped on promptly, clinging tightly to Jiang Si’s neck.

Actually, Keke was very light, though the same age as Yu Mo, she was a bit lighter than Yu Mo.

Stuffing the sweets he bought earlier into Keke’s suitcase, Jiang Si wasn’t tired as he held Keke by the leg with one hand and the suitcase in the other, heading towards the hospital.

"Where are you taking all this stuff?"

"To Anyang to find you."

"You haven’t started your vacation yet, right?"

Jiang Si remembered Keke’s finals should be around the same time as college entrance exams.

"I took a leave."

Actually intended to drop out.

"Who allowed you to take leave?" Jiang Si frowned, "Work at the Disaster Strategy Bureau required a lot of leaves, and now you’re taking leave right before finals, are the finals okay?"

Keke mumbled, "No problem, there’s time to review."

"What about your job at the Disaster Strategy Bureau?"

"I resigned."

"Resigning such a good job?" Jiang Si said sternly, "Go back and get the job back."

"Got it, I’ll go tomorrow."

"Go talk to them properly today, don’t delay, it’s so hard to find jobs now, your job is both flexible and pays well, can’t find such outside..."

Keke covered her ears, bumping Jiang Si on the back of his head, "Got it, got it, I’ll talk to Yiyi in the afternoon, brother, you’re so nagging."

"It’s not nagging, what did Mom and Dad always say?"

Keke lay on her brother’s shoulder, whispering, "Told us to study well, nothing else matters, at least get into college, and that’s their biggest hope."

"Look at your current grades..."

"My grades are quite good."

Jiang Si let out a casual "Oh," and said no more.

He didn’t know Keke’s recent exam results anyway and only meant to remind her to keep an eye on it.

If her grades are good, then it’s alright.

Get into college, manage to secure a good job at the Disaster Strategy Bureau, and soon she’ll be independent, sparing him the worry.

That’s about what their parents hoped for.

Walking silently along the road, Keke nudged Jiang Si’s temple, "Why aren’t you talking, brother."

"About what?"

"Anything, talk to me, brother."

And you would still find it annoying.

When did this person change the way she addressed him?

Previously, wasn’t it all Jiang Si, Jiang Si?

Did her rebellious phase just start and end already? Just a few minutes, why does it all feel less than before the rebellious phase?

A speedrun master of adolescence?
