Chapter 1 The Unscientific Point System
The first time Lex saw his sister was in the hospital.
It was a winter, and he remembered it clearly. At that time, he was very young, and the bedtime story was still the Bible that his mother would read to him.
It was snowing that day, but it was not cold.Early in the morning, Allen woke him up.Then he remembered that his mother went to the hospital yesterday, but his father would not let him follow him.Allen said that today he will have a younger brother.
In fact, he wanted a younger sister, not only him, but also his mother.He remembered that when his mother sat in front of the window, she would stroke her swollen belly and let him reach out to feel his sister's presence.
But it doesn't matter, whether it is a younger brother or a younger sister, he will like it equally!He even had the proper rooms ready, a boy's and a girl's, which he and Ellen had furnished together!
"Alan, do you think Julian will like me?" He stared at the window with his chin up, his ginger-red hair hanging down to be neatly combed, not like a child.
"Of course." He Alan was as serious as usual, but for some reason, Lex always felt that Alan seemed unhappy.Maybe it's an illusion, but Alan really doesn't look like...his usual look.
Lionel Luthor arrived at the hospital before his son arrived.
Lilian Luthor had a difficult labor and had been having trouble all night.None of the equipment that had been prepared at home could be used, and it was already very dangerous when it was sent to the hospital last night.After staying up all night, when the lights in the operating room dimmed, he stood up, still as mature and steady.
"Congratulations, you are a very beautiful little girl."
"Agirl?" he repeated, and quickly smiled, "I need to go see Ki's wife, don't you mind?"
"Of course." The nurse nodded and smiled gently—this is a very good man, "I hope your daughter won't think that you value your wife too much and don't care about her."
"Of course." He turned and entered the ward.
Lex saw his sister outside the nursery.It was a very healthy child, eyes closed, in a small lump, lying in a crib.
"It's a girl, congratulations on becoming an older brother." Allen said softly, frowning, "Have you prepared a name for her?"
"Daddy wouldn't like my name, would he?" Lex leaned on the window, staring almost greedily at the baby who couldn't see clearly.
"It's okay, your mother will like it."
Because...Mr. Luthor didn't prepare the girl's name, and handing over the naming rights to Lex, at least...wouldn't be too difficult.
"Then it's called Gabriel." Lex didn't understand why Allen said that, but it didn't hinder his good mood. "I like the name Gabriel."
"kindness."
Gabriel, an angel?
Three years later:
Lex with red hair and blue eyes led a little girl with red hair and blue eyes out of the farmhouse, and the homemade wind chimes hanging from the door frame jingled.
The woman with the same red hair wearing an apron said with a smile: "So our family Gabriel has already woken up~ Did you bother brother to read today?"
"No!" The little girl pouted unhappily, "Mom, you said that again!"
"Our family, Gabriel, is so obedient!" Lex smiled gently, "Well...Mom, let's go to town today, shall we?"
"En?" The woman was a little surprised, "What's wrong?"
"Dad just called..." Lex's voice was a little embarrassed, "Today is Gabriel's birthday, so he said he wanted to be here..."
"It's okay, I'll call him, Lex, can you take your sister to have breakfast?"
"Okay." Lex smiled, took his sister and went to the living room to have breakfast.
Sitting obediently on his small chair, Gabriel watched Lex tiptoe to get breakfast for himself with some boredom—the stove was still a bit high for Lex, but there was no need to move a small stool.
What a good brother.
God knows, three years ago, she was not a child who could just say a word.
The beginning of the story is ordinary, at least for her, that beginning is really boring.
She remembers very clearly that day, she got up, ate, went to class, surfed the Internet as usual...
Then I answered a phone call, left the dormitory, and left the school gate.
It's dark...
She became a newborn baby.
It's not easy for an adult to pretend to be a baby, but it's not too difficult.Her brother is very smart, even smarter than her brother in the previous life, so even if she occasionally behaves like a child, she can be forgiven - she doesn't have the high IQ of her brother.
And the other difference is probably this.
"Hello, you have completed the mission [Get in touch with your brother] today, please continue to work hard."
What?You ask why there is no setting of the most basic favorability value?Hehehehe, let Gabriel tell you gracefully that this is a game for Mary Sue to grow up. When she first came into contact with her brother, her favorability value was 100/100.So, you get it?
But speaking of it, who came up with the name Mary Sue like Gabriel?Not at all like the inexplicable father and this mother who seems to be mentally unstable...
But Gabriel felt that his setting in this new family was quite similar to before, except that his younger brother was replaced by an older brother.
Sometimes when looking at Lex, she would feel that they were two people with completely different looks and personalities, but when they lowered their heads and smiled at her, they accidentally overlapped together, as if they had never been separated.
"Milk." Lex pushed a glass of milk in front of her with a smile.
The same goes for the insistence on milk ≡ω≡
It's just... She always felt that the surname Luther sounded familiar.Forget it, it probably sounds the same as Loser.
"I'm going to do my homework after dinner, can Gabriel paint alone?"
"En." With a sip of milk in his mouth, Gabriel swallowed hard and nodded.
"By the way." Lex seemed a little casual, but asked seriously, "Does Gabriel miss Dad?"
"?!" She was stunned for a moment, and almost spit out a mouthful of milk, but she still shook her head seriously, "Dad...no."
After breakfast, Lex took Gabriel to wash his hands, led her to the writing desk, took out the book and pen to read, and then handed Gabriel drawing paper and crayons.
She has never had anything to do with painting.
Unlike a genius like Lex, who can basically do everything.
Speaking of which... brother, I don't read much, don't lie to me, what school do you have as homework in primary school is physics?Is this really a course for elementary school students?Even if you are in America, I don't believe it!
Gabriel just felt very tired.
"Ding, congratulations, you have triggered the task [Bring Mommy Home]. You will get 10 points for completing the task, and 10000 points will be deducted for failing the task."
……
Wait... what did I just do?Why did you trigger the task? I said!Also, I seem to... I heard someone say that [-] points will be deducted for mission failure? Σ(°△°|||) Are you kidding me?
10 points for success, 10000 points for failure, is this something humans can do!
"Can I ask a question?"
"Excuse me." The service attitude is quite good. Although it is a cold machine voice, it is really good to answer every question, not to mention the reply in the brain.
"why?"
"...The right to interpret this activity belongs to this system."
Gabriel: "..."
So Lilian, who was still in a bad mood just after making the phone call, suddenly noticed that her little daughter was staring at her with almost fiery eyes: "Mom, I miss Dad!"
Lilian: "..."
Lex: "..."
Who to coax?You haven't seen him a few times in a year, you just said that you have forgotten what he looks like, and suddenly you say you miss him, are you kidding me for a fool?
"Ding, Lex Luthor's favorability score is -1, and the current favorability value is 99/100, please continue to work hard."
Gabriel: "..."
Brother, how much do you hate Dad?I just mentioned that your favorability will go down, is it really okay?But to be honest, she was really not worried at all, and turned to look at her brother with tears in her eyes.
"Ding, Lex Luthor's favorability is +1, and the current favorability value is 100/100."
So I say it!
"So... you're back?" Lionel Luthor stared at the daughter who looked into his eyes without fear, and soon smiled, "Welcome home, my dear family."
He opened his arms as if he was about to fly, and there was a light in his eyes that Gabriel could not understand.
For a moment, she grabbed her brother's clothes tightly, shrank her body, looked at the black hole-like door behind her father, and closed her eyes.
She was scared.
Yes, she had always been afraid of Lionel Luthor, the father who... had never hugged her.
It’s ridiculous to say that she is not the original baby. It stands to reason that she shouldn’t have expectations for her arms, but she rarely walks on the street by herself. When she was a baby, she was carried by her mother as a handbag, or sat in a stroller pushed by her brother. when I was a little older, I was hugged in various ways, and even seldom walked by myself.
But all this time, Lionel Luthor hadn't hugged her.
She knew why, probably.
The name Gabriel didn't come from Lionel Luthor, or Lillian Luthor, so it must have been from Lex.What kind of father doesn't even have a name ready when his daughter is born and sometimes calls her "Julian"?To be honest, at first she really thought that on the other side of the earth, patriarchy would no longer be possible, but... maybe her words were not accurate enough, and Lionel Luthor did not have a good impression of her. The calculation is very low, hovering between 50 and 60 all the time, but she has heard arguments from her parents, saying that Lex's character is too weak, and she...girls don't expect her character to be strong enough to inherit the family business. inside words.
It's ridiculous.
But it's the truth.
