The rain kept falling, and the atmosphere was not very harmonious.
Of course, this was just Qin Xin's one-sided thought. In fact, on the other side of the dining table, the atmosphere between her sister and her girl was quite harmonious.
No, rather than harmonious, it was... sweet?
"Are you going to eat? If not," Qin Yue threatened, "I'll have to feed you."
Bai Ningning had a blank expression: "Oh really, feed where?"
"Feed together."
Qin Xin: ...
This conversation is unbearable!
"Don't you pay attention to your image?" Bai Ningning huffed, "The junior is still watching."
Qin Yue laughed: "Sorry, my family supports me doing these things to you. They all agree that someone like you, who is so spoiled, should be taken care of more."
She then looked at her sister: "Right, Qin Xin?"
Indeed, she had said that before.
Qin Xin recalled all the praises she had given her sister for her actions, not only thinking it in her heart but also saying it out loud—good job, good job.
She almost wanted to slap herself.
And now, when she thought back to that entire afternoon, those low murmurs, that fragmented lullaby, that reality which was consistent with her dreams, just with a change of protagonist.
It was her Senior Ningning!
The one who had been taken care of by her sister for an entire afternoon was her Senior Ningning!
"Qin Xin?" Qin Yue called her again.
"Uh-huh," Qin Xin replied with difficulty, "Yes."
Endure!
The only thing that comforted her was that Senior Ningning didn't seem happy, her little face remained cold, and no matter how flirtatious Qin Yue was, she never blushed.
Qin Xin thought, Senior Ningning's mood must be the same as hers; on the surface, it seemed like a sunny day, but in reality, it was raining continuously.
Just like those sad rainy day love songs...
"The vast forest leaves behind a rain, the sound that comes, pitter-patter, is the raindrops embracing the creek, the green forest~~~"
Qin Yue pulled out her phone and handed it to Bai Ningning: "Why are you so childish?"
Using the ending song of Pig Pig Hero as a ringtone.
Bai Ningning snorted lightly: "You know what song this is, which means you have issues too."
What right do you have to criticize me?
She took the phone and saw it wasn't a call, but a special reminder she had set.
[Class Monitor]: The GPA has been credited, congratulations.
It was a congratulatory message from the class monitor for the successful completion of her volunteer work. This was expected; after spending half a month being a gentle and considerate senior, it would be strange if she didn't pass.
However, that said, she still wanted to thank the junior who gave her a good review.
Bai Ningning looked at Qin Xin and slightly nodded to the junior in black thigh-high socks: "Thank you, Qin Xin."
Qin Xin was still thinking about the green forest, and when she heard this thanks, she didn't react: "What?"
"I said, thank you for the good review," Bai Ningning explained, "The semester GPA for volunteers requires you all to give good reviews to get it."
Qin Xin was slightly taken aback.
Right, Senior Ningning had said before that taking care of her was not for any other reason, just because it was a requirement of the volunteer task.
Now that the good review was in hand, the GPA was also in hand, and the utilitarian value was... gone?
In Qin Xin's desolate heart, a small seed of anger was quietly sown.
"Give a good review?" Qin Yue pinched Bai Ningning's fragrant shoulder, "I also want to give you a good review. No, not just one."
The spaghetti strap nightgown is great; you can touch it anywhere.
Watching her sister's nonchalant actions and listening to her words, Qin Xin lowered her head and took a big bite of rice.
Pain +10, Anger +1
The cohabitation life of the two sisters and Senior Ningning officially began.
"Just stay here; the room... the maid has already tidied it up?"
"Mm."
"It's close to the corridor, so it's more convenient for getting up and going to school in the morning. I usually wake up later on my days off."
"Mm."
"You know the maids at home; if you need anything, just tell them directly."
"Mm."
Qin Xin listened absentmindedly.
But Qin Yue was even more distracted, quickly finishing a few sentences before turning to leave: "Get some rest; we're going to rest first."
We?
She returned to the living room, picked up Bai Ningning in her arms, and walked away.
The beautiful and delicate Senior Ningning looked a bit flustered: "What are you going to do?"
"Don't ask obvious questions."
Kill!
Listening to the sound of footsteps, Qin Xin turned to look at her room. Outside, the rain pattered, and inside, the air conditioning was slightly cool.
This life is a bit hard to bear.
Let's do homework; doing homework can help forget all worries.
The sky gradually darkened.
The light rain that had been falling since the sun was still up not only didn't stop but became heavier, showing a tendency to take more and more.
Qin Xin couldn't tell if it was psychological, but listening to the rain, she felt it mixed with the sounds made by Senior Ningning being taken care of.
The girl sighed, took out her headphones, and put them on, opening NetEase Cloud Music.
What? This lousy app doesn't have Jay Chou.
Close NetEase Cloud, open QQ Music, and recharge a green diamond membership.
"The rain falls all night, my love overflows like rainwater~"
Homework will eventually be finished. Songs will also come to an end.
The night grew deeper, and Qin Xin went to the bathroom to take a shower, preparing to lie down and rest.
Passing through the corridor, her heart fluttered, and she slightly adjusted her route, heading toward her sister's bedroom.
"Is it wrong? Is it wrong?"
"No... hum."
"Meow or not? Meow or not?"
"Hmm, um... not meow."
Listening to the indistinct voices, Qin Xin couldn't help but think of the songs she had heard that night. And the green diamond membership she had to pay for to listen to lossless sound quality... that diamond is really green.
"Second Miss?"
The voice coming from the end of the corridor made Qin Xin's body tremble. Turning her head, she saw it was Aunt Zou.
Because it was raining heavily tonight, several maids didn't leave after their shifts but randomly found guest rooms to stay in.
"I, I want to go to the bathroom," Qin Xin quickly thought of a reason, "I don't know which way to go."
Today is the first day at her sister's house; it's normal not to find the way.
"That way is the eldest young lady's bedroom," Aunt Zou said, "the bathroom is on the other side; you need to exit the corridor first... I'll take you there."
"Mm."
Finally, she managed to get through, and Qin Xin let out a long sigh of relief.
As they walked, she suddenly felt this was a great opportunity, so she seized the chance to ask: "Aunt Zou, what exactly is going on with my senior, that girl who is my sister's?"
Aunt Zou was taken aback: "Second Miss, what do you mean?"
"How did she meet my sister, and why did it develop to this point?" Qin Xin looked elsewhere, pretending to ask casually, "I'm a bit curious."
"About this matter..."
Aunt Zou hesitated for a moment, sighed deeply, and said to her: "This is a long story; if the Second Miss doesn't mind wasting time, I can tell you about it."
Qin Xin quickly perked up her ears, listening intently.
