Chu Qingchan felt that Xu Lin was too much.
She had finally managed to take a day off, without having to practice singing, and then he came and dragged her over, just to play with a little girl.
And this child was quite a little imp—what if she ended up confusing her?
With no other choice, Chu Qingchan had to drag Chu Fengyi along to Xu Lin’s place as well.
“So, are you really afraid of a 14 or 15-year-old girl?” Chu Fengyi gave Chu Qingchan a look, yawned, and her hair was just casually tied up in a simple ponytail instead of her usual pretty double ponytails.
“I’m not afraid of anything. She hasn’t really done anything wrong. I already said that. In the entertainment industry, who doesn’t have their own thoughts and brains?”
“You.”
“What do you mean, ‘me’?”
“You don’t have a brain.”
“Chu Fengyi, I think you need a good beating.”“Are you going to beat me? That’s something from over ten years ago.”
“I’ll get Xu Lin to teach you a lesson.” Chu Qingchan also glared at her, “He’ll give you an injection and kill you, you little b*tch.”
“Chu Qingchan, you’re telling me dirty jokes again, you old virgin.”
“You too, Chu Fengyi, don’t tell me you made a mistake, Xu Lin won’t want you then.”
“Mind your own business. I’m not like you.” Chu Fengyi rolled her eyes at her not-so-serious older sister.
“Wait, you didn’t really make a mistake, did you?” Chu Qingchan suddenly felt a hint of unease.
If Xu Lin found out about this… would he have issues with Chu Fengyi?
Although she argued with her sister all the time and she still wanted Xu Lin just for herself. But if her sister married another man, she couldn’t accept it.
Even if it was a bit selfish, Chu Fengyi also liked Xu Lin, and she didn’t want their alliance to fall apart.
“What mistake?”
“Like, are you involved with another man…”
“No.”
“So what did you mean by saying you’re not like me?”
“Uh…”
Chu Fengyi didn’t know how to respond. She and Xu Lin had been through a lot together, but those were memories from her past life.
“I’m going to check on you tonight, regardless.”
“Chu Qingchan, don’t go too far!”
Chu Fengyi blushed, unable to hold her composure. Her older sister, though with an icy demeanor, always did the strangest things.
“Heh heh, I’m just joking. I trust my sister to stay pure.”
“By the way, Chu Qingchan, if you like Xu Lin, just marry him. What does it matter if I stay pure or not?”
“You don’t like Xu Lin?”
“There are many things I like. Do I have to want them all?”
“See? You’re being so tsundere again.”
“Tsundere my foot! Fine, I like Xu Lin. So what? Just like I said before, if both of us go after the same man, Dad would tear Xu Lin apart.”
“won’t you protect him?”
“How can I protect him?”
Chu Fengyi looked at her clueless older sister. Even though she was powerful and Dad liked her, if she went against him, she could end up trapped at home and forced into an arranged marriage. It was really something to think about.
“But Dad doesn’t know. Once you get stronger, you can gradually push him aside.”
“You really are his biological daughter, just as ruthless.”
“I’m only hoping he’ll retire soon so he can enjoy his life with Mom and the others,” Chu Qingchan said with a serious face, making Chu Fengyi want to laugh.
“But you’re right. I should figure something out. Dad needs a break and to spend more time with Mom and the others.”
“You mentioned Mom and the others?!”
Chu Qingchan was pleasantly surprised and moved closer, while Chu Fengyi quickly pushed her sister’s face away.
“Don’t get your foundation all over me.”
“I only applied a little bit.”
“You’re so pretty. Why bother with makeup? It’s such a hassle.”
“By the way, you never seem to wear makeup.”
“Yeah.”
“Chu Fengyi, you don’t know how to put on makeup, do you?”
“I do.” Chu Fengyi replied seriously.
“Next time, put on some makeup so I can see.”
“Chu Qingchan, you really need a beating.”
A few minutes later, the two sisters arrived downstairs at Xu Lin’s place, still playfully bickering.
“By the way, Chu Fengyi, do you know why I don’t want to see that girl?”
“Why?”
“Because, even though I say I don’t like her, I actually like her quite a bit. I can’t handle being cold and distant after getting close to someone.”
“I see. You really are that kind of person.”
Chu Fengyi understood her older sister’s annoying habits. She might appear cold and aloof, but her heart was warm.
She was passionate, loving, and kind, though in a different way from Little Sister Ji Yun. She was tender towards the things she loved.
The things she truly disliked, she was completely indifferent to, and no amount of persuasion would change that.
“But what about that person you really hate?”
“Who?”
“Qin Tiantian.”
“Oh, her. I dislike her arrogance and her unethical rise to fame. But since she’s a woman, and if she’s being bullied, I can’t just ignore it.”
“Chu Qingchan, I have to admit, saying that, I actually think more highly of you.”
“More highly? What does that even mean?”
“All the food and drink you’re consuming are paid for by me.”
“Hey, hey, aren’t we sisters~”
Chu Qingchan immediately linked her arm with her sister’s as they arrived. Chu Fengyi didn’t shake her off, giving her a roll of the eyes. The two of them went into the elevator together.
At the door, Chu Qingchan showed a hint of nervousness, but Chu Fengyi knocked, and Liu Qinnuan opened the door. Seeing the Chu sisters, Liu Qinnuan greeted them but didn’t pay much attention to Chu Qingchan. Her expression was unreadable.
“Brother Xu gave me a list and asked me to buy the items on it. He’s coming back at noon to make stinky tofu.”
“Stinky tofu?”
“I said I wanted to eat it, and I was going to buy it myself, but he said he’d make it himself.”
Liu Qinnuan’s words made the Chu sisters feel a bit emotional. They thought they should let him know next time, as they also had things they wanted to eat.
“Let’s head out then.”
“Okay, here’s the key for you, Sister Chu. I’m afraid I might lose it.”
Liu Qinnuan handed the key to Chu Qingchan, who was momentarily taken aback. Seeing the smile on Liu Qinnuan’s face, she nodded and took the key. How could she complain when the other person was so considerate?
“You’re dressed too lightly. Go back and change into something warmer.”
“But Sister Ji Yun went to school, and my clothes are with her.”
“Then go to Chu Fengyi’s place and borrow one of her clothes.”
“Why use mine?”
“My clothes would be too big for her.”
“Fine, let’s go.”
The three of them left together. Without the heating, Liu Qinnuan immediately felt the chill of northern winter. She had already experienced it when she arrived and had put on extra layers, but she still underestimated the cold.
“Let’s take the stairs down; it might be warmer,” Chu Qingchan suggested, noticing Liu Qinnuan shivering.
“Short-term cold is better than long-term cold. Taking the elevator is better,” Chu Fengyi immediately countered her sister.
“Let’s take the elevator. I can handle it.”
The three of them went into the elevator, and Chu Fengyi took the paper and looked it over.
“By the way, why does stinky tofu need pork bones?”
“I don’t know… Maybe Xu Lin has his own method.”
“By the way, you actually like stinky tofu? I still can’t stand it.”
“Then don’t eat any,” Chu Qingchan teased her sister.
“Fine, I won’t eat it. I’m just hungry. I haven’t had breakfast yet.”
“Then let’s go have breakfast. Liu Qinnuan, have you eaten?”
“I’ve eaten. You two sisters can go wherever you like.”
Luckily, she had eaten already, otherwise, the sisters would have to think about what to get her, which might not be to their taste.
“I want to eat a fried egg.”
“Fried egg is too greasy, don’t eat it.”
“Then what will you eat?!”
“I’ll just have some congee.”
“I need to eat something substantial.”
“I want century egg congee today.”
“I want fried eggs.”
“What about you, Sister Liu Qinnuan?” Chu Qingchan and Chu Fengyi turned to Liu Qinnuan, who smiled helplessly.
“Let’s just buy them all…”
