179 You Don’t Believe Me Either
After carrying Su Su to her room, Su Zhen grabbed a children’s coloring book and handed it to Su Su. “I still have matters to attend to, so I can’t play with you for now, okay?”
Su Su nodded and waved at Su Zhen.
Su Zhen turned around and wanted to leave when he remembered something. He turned around and pinched Su Su’s face as he said, “You still have to participate in the variety show with me the next time you’re on school break.”
“Yes, of course, Fourth Brother!” Su Su blinked and replied.
However, Su Qiao was still a kid and hadn’t formed a proper worldview yet. Su Su was worried the dream chip would cause harm to Su Qiao, making it the more inferior method.
Su Su hopped down from her bed, put on her slippers, opened the door, and quietly walked out. The rest of the family was busy with their things, so Su Su went to the basement’s detention room.
She took a key and quietly unlocked the detention room. Then she ran in and hurriedly closed the door. The lights were on, but the room wasn’t as messy as when she had visited Su Qiao previously. It was clear that Su Qiao hadn’t smashed anything to vent his frustrations as he did in the past.
At that moment, the detention room was lifeless as there were no signs of movement. Su Qiao hadn’t reacted even when Su Su opened the door.
Su Su walked to the side of the small bed and saw Su Qiao lying quietly on the mattress. The red marks on his back had turned purple, and bruises started forming.
Su Su immediately felt sorry for Su Qiao after seeing him in such a sorry state. No matter how naughty Su Qiao was, he was still Su Su’s biological brother. She said in a trembling voice, “Why were you being stupid just now, Fifth Brother?”
‘If he did something wrong, he should’ve reflected on it and learned from his mistakes. Why did he have to quarrel with Su Jun and provoke him?’
Hearing Su Su’s voice, Su Qiao opened his eyes and slowly turned around. He said weakly, “Su Su, why are you here?”
Su Su saw the unopened ointment on the bedside table and knew that Su Qiao was being stubborn again. ‘He still doesn’t want to admit he was wrong.’ She picked the ointment up and said helplessly, “I came to rub the ointment on your back, Fifth Brother.”
“You came to do what now? Do you even know how to do it?” Su Qiao snorted disdainfully. Then he sucked in a breath of air due to the pain. “Watch it! Su Jun hit me pretty hard!”
With great difficulty, Su Su opened the ointment with her tiny hands. After reading the instruction manual, she carefully rubbed the ointment onto Su Qiao’s wounds. When Su Su heard Su Qiao hissing in pain, she looked up and wanted to say something but stopped halfway. “Fifth Brother, you shouldn’t”
Su Su wanted to tell Su Qiao that he was a kind-hearted person even though he was short-tempered and shouldn’t have lifted that girl’s skirt.
But Su Qiao exploded the moment Su Su started speaking. He struggled to remember what he wanted to say and lay back down due to the pain. Su Qiao frowned and said, “What should I have done, then? Should I explain myself or just let Big Brother scold me?”
“All of that, maybe.” Su Su didn’t fully understand what Su Qiao meant, so she replied vaguely based on her thoughts.
Suddenly, Su Qiao calmed down, and there was a trace of sadness in his voice, “You won’t believe me even if I told you what happened, will you, Su Su?”
