Chapter 252 : Silly
That night, it rained in this city of neon lights and alcohol. Su Yun stared blankly at the wet, hazy black sky, feeling somewhat dazed.
She'd pulled up a chair and was sitting on the balcony, thinking about what to say when she met her big sister tomorrow.
Should she say she did well on her exams, handles all the housework, and is a well-behaved, excellent student? Or should she say they're very much in love and just went to the amusement park today?
Su Yun was terrified that Qin Yao would dislike her, afraid that the other would interfere with her and Qin Xue's life.
"Oh, bunny?"
During her melancholy, she glanced slightly to the left side of the balcony and discovered a cute big white rabbit leaning there.
Oh, this must be what Qin Xue just washed. It's not dry yet.
She gazed gently at the little rabbit. Just thinking that it was a gift from Qin Xue made her very happy.
"Oh no! It's raining! It can't stay out here!"
Su Yun quickly stood up from the chair, hugged the rabbit in her arms, and ran toward the living room.
"Little sister Yun, that one isn't dry yet. Don't hold it." Qin Xue stood in the kitchen wearing an apron. She turned around and reminded Su Yun.
"It's raining outside."
"Oh, then hang it up to dry."
"No way! How can you hang it like that!!!"
Qin Xue furrowed her brows in confusion. Then she discovered the person had picked up a hair dryer.
She pleasantly relaxed her brows: "Looks like I was right to come back."
Little sister Yun really does love the bunny so much. She'd even feel bad hanging it up. Plus, now she didn't want to wait for it to air dry naturally. She was eager to blow dry it and immediately hug the bunny.
Yeah, that three thousand three hundred wasn't wasted.
Right now, Su Yun was sitting on the living room sofa, blow-drying the bunny's round belly.
This was what Sister Xue bought for a thousand. It was so expensive, she had to treasure it well. And most importantly...
It was Sister Xue's feelings for her.
Su Yun blow-dried the bunny, her heart warm.
...
The quiet night slowly passed under the patter of rain.
Around 10 PM, Su Yun had already showered, dried her hair, and was lying in bed.
She comfortably opened her phone and only then saw the message Xia Hongxuan had sent her in the afternoon.
(Sister Complex: You have an exam tomorrow, right? Help me pick up Xia Rou)
(She's taking Medical Chemistry tomorrow morning in Room 402 of the Science and Technology Building, third column, second row. In the afternoon...)
Seeing the content precise down to the exact seat, Su Yun blinked blankly.
No wonder he's a sister complex.
But she had something to do in the morning. How could she pick her up?
(Su Yun: I have something to do in the morning. I might not be able to help.)
(Sister Complex: (Transfer 10,000.00 yuan))
(Sister Complex: This phone doesn't have money. Keep this for now. Help me take good care of my sister. I won't let you down later.)
Su Yun's face changed immediately when she saw the five-digit amount of money.
(Su Yun: Okay, I'll make time to pick her up.)
Getting paid to pick up a pretty girl and bring her home? Why not? It's just tight on time.
But the fact that he was willing to entrust Xia Rou to her meant he must trust her quite a bit. And he was the chairman of a major company. Wouldn't that mean she'd never have to worry about money in the future?
Su Yun quickly dismissed this idea in her mind. Relying on others made her feel uneasy. Plus, if Qin Xue found out about this, she might literally kill her (referring to later becoming Xia Rou's bodyguard).
"Little sister Yun, help me get that underwear hanging on the rack." A cold female voice came from the bathroom next to the room.
"Okay."
Su Yun put down her phone and quickly found the thin black fabric hanging near the bed.
"You only take two things when you shower, and you still forget? Silly."
She innocently opened the bathroom door a crack and handed it in with her hand.
But the person inside didn't move for a long time.
Why isn't Sister Xue taking her pants? What is she doing?
Soon, her hand felt a soft, pillow-like sensation on the back. Then her entire hand was wrapped in something.
"??"
"Ah!"
Su Yun was so scared she jerked her hand away, and the little pants she was holding dropped to the ground.
"Sister Xue, what are you doing! It got wet on the floor."
The bathroom on a winter night was filled with wisps of steam. When Qin Xue opened the door, the steam poured out like a spring.
Su Yun saw the fairy surrounded by 'celestial mist' and was stunned for a moment.
"Whoa! Close the door!"
She held the door handle, but Qin Xue wouldn't let her close it. She had no choice but to turn around and face away.
"Who told little sister Yun you didn't shower with me at night? Without someone peeking from behind, I'm bored to death."
Su Yun's eyes widened in shock: "Peeking? Huh?"
How did you know...
Qin Xue's eyes were now full of resentment: "Tell me, why didn't you shower with me?"
"I..."
"I just felt like showering alone. What else?"
Though she couldn't see because she was facing away, Su Yun's face was getting increasingly hot.
Su Yun had suddenly understood some things in the afternoon. It wasn't until today that she realized Qin Xue had actually been caring about her all along. She could immediately notice who she was looking at and what she liked.
She used to think Qin Xue was just a fierce girl who liked to pinch and squeeze, but she didn't expect her to be so thoughtful.
And the result? The other person cared about her, and she just thought about perverted things. Su Yun felt very guilty, so she didn't want to continue peeking at Qin Xue shower anymore.
Plus, she felt that if she showered with Qin Xue now, her heart would feel inexplicably stuffy and her heartbeat would race...
"Little sister Yun, you hate me now."
The voice from behind sounded very weak, as if it had lost all its color.
"Huh? No."
Did Sister Xue think she was angry? So now she was worried, even about to cry?
No...
Su Yun quickly turned around and hugged the other. Of course, her eyes were closed the whole time.
"I really like that rabbit. I had one like it when I was little, but Mom threw it away later. So, thank you, Sister Xue, for giving it to me... And then, I also really like Sister Xue, so please don't think weird things anymore. If you're sad, I'll be sad too."
"Oh."
Qin Xue's hand quietly moved to Su Yun's front.
"Mm, Sister Xue, don't..."
"Look, little sister Yun. You're hugging me, and you're all wet now."
"Huh?"
Su Yun drowsily opened her eyes and only then realized Qin Xue was still wet and hadn't wiped herself off.
Qin Xue smiled and took the opportunity to grab Su Yun's small white hand.
"Alright, you're already wet. Let's shower together."
"Huh? No way."
"Be good. Come in."
"Whoa!"
Just like that, Su Yun was forcibly pulled in by Qin Xue. Through the thin steam, she could see the beauty in front of the other and almost fainted from excitement.
And she didn't know if it was her misunderstanding, but Sister Xue kept holding the showerhead in her right hand with the water still running. It seemed like if Su Yun hadn't hugged her, she would have sprayed herself with the showerhead anyway.
Later, when Qin Xue was washing Su Yun's hair: "Little sister Yun, you look so silly when your hair stands on end."
While showering: "Little sister Yun, your body is so white, just like that rabbit. It looks so silly."
While getting dressed: "Little sister Yun, you're so small. Your clothes don't even get stuck. Look at mine."
"Aiya, don't glare at me like that, little sister Yun. I'd be embarrassed too. Plus, you look so silly when you're angry like that."
Su Yun was numb.
Was Sister Xue really sad earlier...
For the rest of that night, no matter how Qin Xue clung to her or squeezed her with her chest, Su Yun didn't move. She just hugged the rabbit and slept soundly.
...
When the chirping of birds rang out the next morning, Su Yun woke up.
After a month, she'd dreamed about eating cotton candy again.
Su Yun opened her eyes, but everything in front of her was dark until her lips felt a soft sensation. Then she understood.
"..."
She backed up a bit and left the cotton candy area. Looking at Qin Xue's disheveled clothes in front, she fell into thought.
The clothing straps had been pulled down, and Qin Xue's upper body was a mess.
Uh, it wasn't her fault. She'd already been asleep.
Su Yun stuffed the rabbit beside her into Qin Xue's arms, then hurriedly got up.
She went to the bathroom to wash up, then returned to the bedroom, took off her clothes, and put on her underwear.
"This girl is still sleeping..." Before leaving, Su Yun was still a bit worried.
Qin Xue probably still thought she hadn't forgiven her.
"Oh, I have an idea."
Su Yun simply left a note and took her exam admission ticket to leave.
In the quiet bedroom.
On the desk, a white note was pressed under a notebook. Below the note were two thin, long black strips of fabric—like a towel, but one end was shaped like feet, giving this long piece of fabric a certain unspeakable mystery and allure.
