The Labyrinth of the Monsters-Chapter 60 – Don’t don’t don’t
Gao Yang's originally drowsy brain was forced into a high-speed operation, causing a throbbing pain at the back of his head and an accelerated heartbeat due to increased blood supply.
His mother and sister were both in the hospital, so the only person who could be knocking on his door at this time was likely his grandmother.
No! During this period of time, his grandmother was sent back to his uncle's house in the countryside by his mother because there was no one to take care of her at home. She would stay there for at least half a month.
Gao Yang got out of bed, concentrated the energy in his body on his hands, and prepared to unleash his talent, Flame, at any moment. He shouted outside the door, "Who is it?"
"It's me." Gao Xinxin's voice came from outside.
Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately became alert again. Why would his sister come home at this time? Moreover, his sister always kicked the door open when she came in. When did she ever knock on the door?
"Are you really my sister?" Gao Yang asked.
"Of course!" Her tone was full of arrogance, which was quite familiar.
"I don't believe it. Tell me a secret that only the two of us know." Gao Yang said.
"Before you turned ten, you used to pee in two directions! You have three moles on the soles of your feet! You're a big idiot! Is that enough?" His sister shouted from outside the door.
"Alright, alright." Gao Yang unlocked the door.
Gao Xinxin outside the door was wearing a thin and breathable white silk pajamas, barefoot, with messy hair and a pouting face, looking unhappy.

"Aren't you in the hospital?" Gao Yang asked.
"You came back home, so Mom let me come back too." His sister walked into the room and sat on the bed with a pout. "I couldn't sleep well in the hospital. Mom was worried about my safety at home alone."
"Oh, I see." Gao Yang also sat down by the bed. "How's Dad doing?"
His sister looked dejected and her mood was low. "The doctor said his recovery is better than expected, but I don't think it's good at all!"
"Why?"
"Dad will have to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life." His sister put her feet away, hugged her knees with both hands, rested her chin on her knees, and looked out the window. "Uncle Qing came over today and talked about the factory. He said the benefits are not good, and there's a large sum of money that can't be recovered. A big supermarket closed down and the boss ran away. Now there's a problem with cash flow, and the workers haven't been paid for two months..."
Gao Yang sighed along. His father's food processing factory hasn't been doing well in the past two years, so his father's socializing has become more frequent. He has been running around for orders, and now he has had a car accident.
Uncle Qing is his father's partner, and he must be very worried as well.
"Dad said that if things don't work out, he'll sell the house and we'll move back to the countryside." His sister said with a hint of a crying tone. "I don't want to go back to the countryside."
Gao Yang's mood was complicated. His sister is at the age of vanity, used to living a good life in the city, and probably won't adapt to the countryside. Not to mention anything else, just the dry toilet in the countryside is a nightmare for his sister. Every time she goes to her grandmother's house, she tries her best not to use the toilet.
Gao Yang was thinking about how to comfort his sister when she said, "I want to stay in the city and work after junior high school. I can earn more money working in the city."
Gao Yang was stunned, instantly moved and ashamed. He thought his sister didn't want to go back to the countryside because of vanity, but it turns out she wants to work early to share the financial burden at home.
"No! At your age, you should focus on studying, not working!" Gao Yang objected.
"I can be a fashion influencer."
"What?!" Gao Yang was shocked.
"I mean, a fashion influencer! I like Lolita dresses, so I often post outfit pictures online. I already have over 6,000 followers, and some businesses contact me to send me their dresses and pay me to advertise for them. There's a specific job for this, it's called a 'Talent'!" His sister was very proud. "I calculated that if three stores contact me in a month and one of them pays me 300 yuan, I can earn 900 yuan. Then I can sell the dresses they send me online and earn over 1,000 yuan. That's 2,000 yuan a month. And when I have more followers, more businesses will contact me and pay me more. But this job is not convenient if we go back to the countryside..."
Gao Yang patted his sister's head with affection. "Sister, I support you in liking Lolita dresses and being a fashion influencer. But you can only treat it as a hobby, you must not give up your studies, understand?"
"But..."

"No 'buts'! Dad doesn't need to sell the house, you don't have to worry about money. I'll figure something out."
"What can you do?" Gao Xinxin expressed doubt.
What else can he do? Wang Zikai's family has money, and Wu Dahai's family has even more money. He can borrow some money from them or see if they're willing to invest as shareholders and provide some money for his father's factory. After that, he can work hard to repay them.
Gao Yang smiled. "Don't worry about that."
"Okay." His sister felt a little relieved. She came over and rested her head on Gao Yang's shoulder. "Brother, can I sleep here tonight?"
"No!" Gao Yang immediately refused.
"Why not? We used to sleep together when we were little." His sister pouted.
"That was when you were little. It's different now." Gao Yang said.
"But, I'm a little scared." His sister's voice became smaller. "I've been feeling that something's not right recently. I had a nightmare yesterday, dreaming that you died...""Why would I die when I'm perfectly fine?" Gao Yang chuckled.
"Dad was perfectly fine too, wasn't he? And look what happened to him."
"That was a very unlikely accident. Our family has already had its share of bad luck, it won't happen again." Gao Yang comforted his sister, "Alright, you should go back to your room and sleep."
"Okay, I'll stay a little longer before I go." His sister seemed reluctant to leave.
Gao Yang didn't rush her, he sat with her. He had found her knocking on his door strange, but now he thought about it, she was probably just becoming more mature.
After all, their family had gone through such a big change, it was inevitable that they would have to grow up.
Growth, always happens overnight.
Suddenly, Gao Yang felt a sense of dizziness. Two hours ago, he was at a barbecue restaurant in Ten Dragon Village, chatting with the Awakened Beings about Runes, World Fog, the Gate of Demise, and the Crimson Tide. But now, he was talking with his sister about their father's accident, moving back to the countryside, and dropping out of school to work.
Sometimes, Gao Yang really couldn't figure out which "world" was the real one.
The siblings sat in silence, each lost in their own thoughts. After a few minutes, his sister sighed as if she had made up her mind, stood up from the bed and said, "Alright, I'm going to sleep now."
"Go ahead."
His sister paused, her gaze falling on a piece of A4 paper on the computer desk. Although the room was dark, the moonlight from the window was shining on the desk, illuminating a corner of the A4 paper.
—Damn! It's the Talent sequence list!
Gao Yang hurriedly got up, pushing his sister towards the door, "You should really go to sleep now."
"Okay." His sister slowly walked out of the bedroom.
Just as Gao Yang was about to close the door, his sister suddenly turned around.
"Is there anything else?" Gao Yang held the doorknob, trying to act natural.
"Brother," his sister stared at Gao Yang, her clear, large eyes blinking, the light in them flickering in a strange rhythm, as if a hidden light source was being rapidly disconnected and reconnected, "When did you... awaken?"
Gao Yang's heart tightened.
No!
Don't!
Don't don't don't!
Don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't!
