The Chinese Elf's Family Rescue Adventure

Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Not an NPC? Then Who Is She?



At first, Wen Chi was quite touched. But then he thought about it and something seemed wrong. So he said to Sui Sui, "Sui Sui, didn't I tell you not to go out?"

Sui Sui spread her small hands, looking very confident. "I didn't promise you!"

Wen Chi was choked and couldn't say a word. After a long while, he finally squeezed out, "Well... I'll go make breakfast."

"Wait!" Sui Sui jumped down from the big bluestone like a lively little monkey and hopped to Wen Chi in a few steps. She blinked her big eyes and asked, "What should I call you?"

Wen Chi was stunned for a moment. "Call me?"

Sui Sui nodded. "Yeah, you don't like me calling you brother."

Wen Chi's heart tightened. It wasn't that he didn't like it. It was just that the word "brother" would bring back his sad memories. So he whispered, "It's not that I don't like it..."

"Then I'll call you Xiao Chi!" Sui Sui's eyes sparkled like two little light bulbs. "It's settled!"

Wen Chi coughed twice. He thought it wasn't appropriate. "This doesn't seem right."

Sui Sui tilted her head up. "Why not?"

Looking at her innocent look, Wen Chi gave in. "Okay, as long as you're happy."

"Okay, Xiao Chi!" Sui Sui answered crisply.

Now Wen Chi felt really wronged. After all, he was in the wrong yesterday.

The audience in the barrage were going crazy with laughter:

[Haha!]

[This little one's way of thinking is amazing!]

[I'm loving this, haha!]

[Wen Chi has nothing to say now, serves him right!]

[Just love to see Sui Sui 'putting Wen Chi in his place', oh no, Xiao Chi!]

Wen Chi seemed to be fleeing as he was about to go into the house to make breakfast.

But Sui Sui wouldn't let him go. She grabbed the little hen by the neck and hopped along behind him. "There's a chick too!"

Wen Chi saw the half-dead, almost rolling-eyes little hen in Sui Sui's hand and was shocked. "You, you're not scared?"

Sui Sui blinked, not understanding what he meant, and just handed the hen to him. "For you to eat!"

As soon as she said that, the little hen started flapping around in Wen Chi's arms, slapping him several times with its wings and making a pitiful "cluck, cluck" sound.

Wen Chi was in a flurry. He muttered, "What's going on? It didn't dare to move when it was by Sui Sui's feet. Why is it going crazy now? Help!"

"Sui, Sui... spit, spit" His mouth was full of chicken feathers.

Sui Sui sighed helplessly, her little face tensed up, and said fiercely, "Be quiet! I'll get angry if you don't!"

Amazingly, the little hen quieted down instantly.

Wen Chi was dumbfounded. What was this? This hen was bullying the weak and fearing the strong?

Not only was Wen Chi stunned, but the audience in the live stream were also shocked:

[Eh? What did I see?]

[These days, even hens know how to judge people!]

[Xiao Chi is so useless. He's not even as good as a three-year-old kid!]

[Am I the only one who thinks something's wrong? Why isn't a hen afraid of adults but is afraid of a kid?]

[Don't underestimate the 'power' of a three-year-old!]

[Xiao Chi is so weak, haha.]

Everyone in the barrage was laughing and didn't take it seriously.

Sui Sui was also calm, as if it was all no big deal.

After all, she was a mighty little ginseng spirit. It was easy for her to subdue a little chick!

"Don't worry. It won't make any more trouble!" Sui Sui sounded cute but fierce and quite imposing.

Wen Chi, with a head full of chicken feathers, glanced at the obedient little hen in his arms and muttered a "thank you".

Then he carried the hen into the kitchen, picked up the kitchen knife, and was about to kill it.

Sui Sui followed in, eager to watch the fun.

Wen Chi put on a straight face. "Kids, don't watch."

Sui Sui didn't bother to argue about him treating her like a kid. She asked excitedly, "Why not? You're going to kill the hen."

Wen Chi was at a loss for words. Actually, he hadn't had much contact with kids and just assumed that kids would be too soft-hearted to watch killing a hen.

But then he thought that sometimes, kids' innocence and ignorance could be much crueler than adults'. Just like he was back then.

Wen Chi's eyes darkened.

Sui Sui asked in a sweet voice, "Xiao Chi, what dish are you going to make? Chicken stewed with mushrooms or braised chicken?"

Sui Sui had never eaten these dishes. She just had a little impression from seeing the villagers eat them.

Wen Chi was dumbfounded when he heard that. Then he realized: he couldn't kill a hen and he couldn't cook either.

With a "clang", he dropped the kitchen knife and tied the little hen in the corner. He asked, "Sui Sui, do you like fried eggs or boiled eggs?"

"I like radishes!" Sui Sui said seriously, thinking that you are what you eat.

"Okay, then we'll have boiled eggs." Wen Chi pretended not to hear and thought to himself: Boiled eggs are safe. At least they won't get burnt.

Wen Chi dropped the eggs into the pot and told Sui Sui not to go near the kitchen. Then he quickly rushed into the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.

He was a bit of a clean freak and it hadn't been easy for him to hold on until now.

However, he thought of Sui Sui outside and didn't dare to stay too long. He just wiped his hair a few times with a towel and rushed out.

When he came out, instead of seeing Sui Sui, he saw the crew members.

"You..." Wen Chi was stunned for a moment and then quickly reacted. "Here to pick up Sui Sui?"

Actually, he had been looking forward to Sui Sui leaving before. Then he wouldn't have to clean, catch hens, or struggle to get along with this little kid.

But now, his heart felt a bit empty and he didn't feel so good.

But Wen Chi pretended nothing was wrong and waved his hand. "Just in time. Take Sui Sui away."

Sui Sui, who was all puffed up with anger, squeezed out from the crowd. Her eyes were red like a little rabbit's. She held back her tears and shouted at Wen Chi, "I'm not leaving! I said I wouldn't leave!"

The young lady from the director's crew tried to coax her with candies, but she didn't even look at them.

Wen Chi looked at Sui Sui and felt a sourness in his heart. He turned his head away and said, "Go find her parents..."

"We don't know." Director Jian Lin rushed back from the city overnight and stepped over the threshold. He said helplessly to Wen Chi, "We don't know who her parents are. This little one wasn't arranged by our crew."

Wen Chi was shocked. "What? Sui Sui isn't an NPC? Then who is she?"

At that moment, not only was Wen Chi confused, but the live stream also exploded:

[What? Sui Sui isn't an NPC arranged by the crew?]

[I'm speechless. What a huge mix-up!]

[This is a broadcasting accident!]

[Where are Sui Sui's parents? Whose irresponsible parents let their kid run around?]

[No way. This is too ridiculous. Could it be that the crew is staging this for hype?]
