Chapter 158: Cocky Little Brother Gu Pei
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Something swept through Gu Yang’s lowered eyes as she contemplated. She went through the storyline of the original book and what happened after she transmigrated. She had a vague guess.
Su Ye sent another message: [Little Fairy, guess what my hacker logo is?]
Gu Yang could guess with her eyes closed: [You used a Jesus’ profile picture. Are you Christian?]
Su Ye: [No, I’m a staunch materialist. I’ve believed in Marxism all my life.]
Gu Yang: ??? Then why does Su Ye like using a Jesus image so much? He seemed like such a devout believer.
Su Ye seemed to be able to sense Gu Yang’s confusion through the screen. He took the initiative to explain: [Little Fairy, look. Isn’t Su Ye’s pronunciation backward ‘Jesus’?]
Gu Yang was enlightened. That was it?
At this moment, the young man’s voice came from outside the villa’s living room. It was filled with the cockiness of youth. “The future e-sports king, Gu Pei, is back!”
The security guard at the entrance of the Gu family’s garden helped Gu Pei carry his suitcase into the house.
Gu Pei was also wearing a custom-made black t-shirt from the e-sports club. There was a headphone hanging around his neck.
His short hair was flamboyant. Because he had stayed in the closed e-sports club for the summer, he was rarely exposed to the sun. His skin was slightly fairer, but it was still a healthy tan.
He looked wild, handsome, and masculine.
“Big Sis! I’m back! Did you miss me?” Gu Pei entered the house, took off his headphones, and placed them on the table. He ignored Gu Jin, who was playing games on the sofa and looked at Gu Yang, who was sitting by the coffee table.
Gu Yang looked at Gu Pei and nodded.
Her little brother’s voice was quite loud.
Ruan Xueling glanced at Gu Pei. “Do you still know how to come back? Do you still miss your sister? I thought you wanted to live in the club and play games for the rest of your life.”
Gu Pei corrected her. “Mom, I already said that I’m not playing games. I’m playing e-sports! I’m going to be the champion of e-sports in the future!”
Ruan Xueling rolled her eyes and didn’t think much of it. “Oh, isn’t that still playing games? Forget it. I don’t want to argue. You’re covered in sweat after coming back from outside. Go change.”
Gu Pei snorted with an expression that said, “None of you understand my dream.” Instead of changing, he went to rummage through his luggage.
He took out an exquisite, branded bag from inside and ran to Gu Yang. He said proudly, “Sister, this is a gift I bought for you! It’s the latest limited edition bag from the designer brand you adore. I used my swift hand speed to help you snatch it on the internet in the middle of the night!”
Gu Yang thanked her. “Thank you, Little Pei.”
The original host’s aesthetics were not bad. At least, she felt that this bag was pretty good.
Ruan Xueling chuckled. “That’s all you can do when you play games. You can practice your hand speed and help snatch a limited edition bag. Why? Did you only bring a gift for Yangyang? What about us?”
As Gu Pei refuted Ruan Xueling for looking down on him playing games, he took out the wrapped high-end lipstick from his luggage and handed it to Ruan Xueling. “Here, I spent a long time picking this out with my roommates last night and agreed on the best color. Mother dearest, are you satisfied?”
Ruan Xueling clicked her tongue when she heard that. She thought about how her son went to seek help getting gifts. At least he put in a lot of effort.
However, when she opened it and saw the color of the lipstick, Ruan Xueling’s face darkened. “Gu Pei, I think you’re itching for a beating. Are you here to provoke me?”
Gu Pei subconsciously took a few steps away from Ruan Xueling. “Mother, are you still not satisfied with the gift that I carefully chose with my bros?”
Gu Yang was beside Ruan Xueling. She turned his head to take a look, and the corners of her mouth twitched.. “Neon pink?”
