Suddenly, the cell phone in Mo Bei’s uniform pants rang.
The ring tone was evidently different than usual.
Her hand, which was holding the handle, faltered for a moment and she did not pick up.
When Feng Nai’s voice was heard through the mask, it was deeper than normal. “Not picking up the call?”
“There are many people around.” Mo Bei’s response was an excuse.
However, it didn’t feel contradictory when it was used in this case.
There were indeed lots of people around.
Moreover, cell phones often did not get a signal on the subway.
However, Mo Bei knew very well who the call was from, which was why she didn’t pick up.
After dropping off a certain Almighty, she took a taxi back to the apartment.
She immediately returned the call when she got on. “Brother.”
It was Mo Nan. He had called after seeing the posts on the school forum and feeling uneasy. “Have you been okay lately?”
“Yes.” Mo Bei was still very short-spoken.
Mo Nan changed his posture. By looking at the photos in the post, he still couldn’t believe that his younger sister would wear such a hat. “Then how come you were wearing a hat with rabbit ears?”
Mo Bei’s fingers paused for a moment before she spoke again. “He found out that I am SweetDisciple. We have a one-week agreement. When he gets his revenge, we’ll be even.”
“Who? King?” Mo Nan’s expression had changed. He stood up from his seat, a bandage still wrapped around his hand. “How is he taking revenge on you?”
Mo Bei’s voice was cool, as though she was stating facts. “I’m buying him things, acting cute, and stuff like that. He mocks me from time to time. He generally likes seeing me embarrassed. After all, he felt like he’d been deceived.”
“The bottom line is, this is all my fault.” The corner of Mo Nan’s lips twitched. When these words reached his mouth, they felt slightly dry. “My image isn’t that good.”
Mo Bei’s eyes darkened. “He knows.”
“He knows?” Mo Nan did not understand what this meant.
Mo Bei turned her gaze out of the window. “He probably discovered why your image is bad and reminded me that if I do not do certain things, people will pick up on it and blow it out of proportion with bad intentions. He told me to take note all the time.”
Besides, he’s still suspecting me.
Mo Bei did not vocalize this statement.
She wanted her brother to know that clever people did not only look at the surface.
This wasn’t about adjusting to her new battle team.
Even though there had been an aversion at the beginning, she’d tried her best to resolve everything that she could so far.
Next up was the problem of playing styles.
However, there was really telepathy between the two siblings.
After hanging up, Mo Nan felt that this wouldn’t do, no matter how he looked at it.
At about nine o’clock at night, Mo Bei had just come out of the shower and was getting ready to return to the base after packing her belongings.
The competition was approaching, so continuous isolated training would follow.
There were definitely lots of things she needed to bring.
When she was about to head out, she got a call from her brother again.
This time, Mo Nan’s voice sounded very upbeat. “Don’t switch off your phone. You’ll get a surprise tomorrow.”
Mo Bei lifted a brow. “Surprise? About what?”
“I found someone to keep you company. When necessary, this person can even help you conceal your identity.” Mo Nan’s laughter became increasingly louder. “You’ll know who it is once you see them.”
Mo Bei looked at the call, which had been hung up, her brows wrinkling. Who could it be?
Most importantly, how would they keep her company?
Was that person in the City of Spring too?
Of course, such matters didn’t linger too long in Mo Bei’s heart. The only thought she had now was changing her small playing style habits to avoid being recognized during the National Preliminaries.
Two days should be enough time.
If she used her right hand, her identity as Bey wouldn’t be as conspicuous…
