Doesn't that make it even

Liu Yuan stood frozen, trying to process the information flooding her mind.

This name… why did it sound so…

Wait a second, wasn’t this just…

A dumb, love-struck idiot’s ability?

But she wasn’t some lovesick fool!

How could she awaken such a ridiculous special talent?

What kind of nonsense was this?!

Still, now that she thought about it…

She could sense Su Qi’s emotions?

And even transmit her own thoughts to him?

That was even more convenient than a smartphone!

After all, even phones couldn’t pick up on unspoken cues.

Instinctively, Liu Yuan focused her mind, attempting to perceive Su Qi’s emotions.

In an instant, a faint, chaotic ripple of emotions—like a weak signal—drifted into her awareness.

He seemed… surprised?

And also… restless?

Hold on…

The effective range was only ten meters, wasn’t it?

Su Qi’s bedroom was definitely farther than ten meters from hers.

Plus, those strange emotional fluctuations…

All the clues pointed to one conclusion: Su Qi was right outside her door! And he’d overheard something he shouldn’t have!

Liu Yuan’s face flushed crimson in an instant.

Oh no, oh no, oh no!

She’d just… she’d just called him “brother”!

Even if it was barely a whisper, Su Qi’s senses were sharp enough to catch it.

She wished she could turn back time and strangle that word before it ever left her throat.

That bastard of a brother!

He was just… utterly shameless!

Liu Yuan forced herself to steady her breathing until only the sound of her even breaths filled the room.

She sensed the presence outside the door relax slightly.

Slowly, she rose from the bed, stepping onto the floor.

Moving with painstaking slowness, she crept toward the door—utterly silent.

Then, in one swift motion, she yanked it open!

Thud!

A dull impact.

But the panicked expression she’d expected from Su Qi never appeared.

Instead…

Su Qi, caught off guard by the sudden movement, tumbled straight into the room.

Faceplanting onto the floor, he let out a theatrical groan. “Wow, this floor is really hard…”

Liu Yuan froze.

What was this?

Had Su Qi really not reacted in time?

What kind of sixth-rank fighter was this incompetent?!

Looking down at him imperiously, she demanded, “So, brother, care to explain?”

“Why are you outside my door at this hour?”

Su Qi avoided answering directly, still sprawled on the ground. “I was just thinking… sometimes, seeing the world from a different angle brings unexpected surprises.”

Liu Yuan’s eye twitched.

What kind of nonsense was that?

Completely dodging the question.

She couldn’t help but retort, “So… you were admiring the wood grain on my door?”

Su Qi shook his head. “I was admiring… the view.”

“The view?”

Liu Yuan’s face burned scarlet all the way to her neck.

She understood exactly what he meant.

The “view” he was referring to was her!

Humiliation and fury exploded inside her.

This guy! Not only had he eavesdropped on her… during her awakening.

Now he had the audacity to tease her?! Unbelievable!

“Su Qi!” she snarled through gritted teeth.

Su Qi, sensing the danger, scrambled to explain. “Wait, let me make something up—”

But Liu Yuan wasn’t giving him the chance.

She launched an attack.

Su Qi’s vision whited out.

Lying flat on the ground, he couldn’t leverage his limbs properly.

And since this was just his little sister—not some life-or-death battle—he could have dodged, but it wasn’t worth the effort.

So, his conclusion was… he was doomed.

“Oof—”

A grunt escaped him as the hit landed squarely.

“Serves you right for eavesdropping! For peeping! For spouting nonsense!” Liu Yuan punctuated each accusation with another strike, putting more force behind her blows.

Su Qi flailed, trying to escape, but it was useless.

Yet as the beating continued, Liu Yuan realized his skin was way too thick—her attacks weren’t even scratching him…

Then, a reckless thought crossed her mind…

If Su Qi had witnessed her embarrassing moment, then she could just witness his humiliation…

Wouldn’t that make them even?

Maybe she should just target his weak spot?
