The Devil Who Devoured Snow White Chapter 22

(Continuation of Flashback)
"Then you can call me Sisi!" The boy replied with a big smile, showing off his perfectly lined, white teeth.
Sisi…
A face of a man flashed in her mind and it was the man who acted as her father figure during the time he was alive. He was kind and caring in every way. He treated her like an angel, spoiled her with his love. Even if they were not blood-related, he was her father no matter what others say.
Another boy came in between which she recognized. Han Xukun.
He pulled her away from the boy called Sisi, "you shouldn't befriend him, Mengmeng. Si Hongqi is not someone you should be friends with."
"But he smiles like papa!" The girl pouted. "I want to be Sisi-gege's friend!"
The scenery faded and was replaced by another. This time, they were in a garden.
"Gege!" A younger boy rushed towards Han Xukun and Si Hongqi. "Have you found Jiejie's necklace?"
Si Hongqi nodded with a bright grin on his lips, "yes, we did." He took the necklace from his pocket and showed it to the boy. "It's this, right?"
"My necklace!" Mengmeng quickly let go of her dad's hand and rushed to him.
He gave the necklace to her and smiled as he said, "the lock broke that is why it fell but I think you can replace the lock somewhere."
Little Mengmeng's body was filled with relief. The necklace was so precious to her, after all, it was a gift from her papa. She could never rest until she found it.
She looked at Si Hongqi in a different light. He was the one who found it, aside from that, whenever he smiled, it was similar to that man's smile.

Warmth filled her chest, her eyes became teary. A radiant smile was plastered on her face. In a blink of an eye, she gave him a hug. "Thank you so much, gege!"
Si Hongqi was a bit surprised when he received Mengmeng's hug. He chuckled lightly and patted her head, "you're welcome, little angel."
Mengmeng tightened her hug when she heard the way he called her. It was the same way her papa called her back then. It was a precious nickname that only her papa addressed to her.
The boy felt his shirt wet. His eyes went wide when he suddenly realized that she was crying for real.
Her shoulders were trembling and a soft sob was heard from her. Since he was the closest to her, he heard her whisper, "papa…"
"M-Mengmeng?" Si Hongqi was worried and nervous, he didn't know how to comfort a crying girl. Just then, he suddenly felt a cold chill run down his spine. He felt a strong killing intent from someone. He turned his head to look at who was giving him such murderous glare. He ended gulping nervously when he saw the dark look on the face of the blond-haired man that was with Mengmeng earlier. Her father.
Si Hongqi instinctively raised his hands in surrender, cold sweats rolled down his forehead.
"I've decided!"
Everyone turned their heads to her.
Mengmeng held Si Hongqi's both hands. "When Mengmeng becomes big and pretty like mama, I will marry Hongqi-gege!"
Everyone: "..."
Si Hongqi wanted to cry. What wrong did he do to her? Why was she digging a grave for him? He could feel her dad and brother's murderous gaze aiming at him.
If he rejected her now then maybe he could save himself... right? "U-um… Mengmeng… I'm grateful but… I am not-"

Her little brother glared angrily at him as he darkly asked, "you're going to reject my Jiejie?"
The boy's question was followed by the blond-haired man, "you think my daughter is not pretty and good enough for you?"
The atmosphere in the place turned a hundred degrees low. It suddenly felt like they were teleported to Antarctica.
Si Hongqi shook his head vigorously as he took back his words and said, "n-no… I mean, of course, I will marry-"
"You're going to marry my Jiejie?"
"This little runt, who do you think you are? Do you think that you're good enough for my princess? You will never be worthy to have my daughter!"
"..." Si Hongqi was in a dilemma. He didn't know what answer he should give them. How could they be so mean to him? He obviously looked torn, he didn't sign up for any of this, okay?
