A full day of work officially began.
Perhaps because Lu Weiyu was there, Lu Weizhu worked very diligently.
“Your milk tea, please enjoy.”
“These are your cookies and coffee.”
“Thank you for coming, please visit us again.”
Without excessive flattery or ingratiation, her face was full of smiles.
Seeing her sister work so hard like this, she hoped Wei Yu wouldn’t overthink things.
Moreover, watching customers thank her and nod politely, Lu Weizhu felt genuinely happy.
She wished to be recognized by others.
Feeling a bit flushed, Lu Weizhu was tired but happy.
Lu Weiyu sat alone in a secluded seat, quietly watching Lu Weizhu deliver items to the customers.
Seeing Lu Weizhu’s smile, Lu Weiyu’s mind drifted.
“She looks so happy…”
Her sister found joy in her work; it was a job she truly loved.
Lu Weiyu should feel happy for her, she also wanted to be happy for Lu Weizhu.
“But why…”
Clutching her chest, Lu Weiyu felt a bit uneasy.
A vague emotion spread through her heart—she didn’t want Lu Weizhu to smile at others or divide her attention.
Lu Weiyu thought she was somewhat ridiculous.
Wanting Lu Weizhu to have freedom and happiness on one hand, while selfishly wanting to keep her love all to herself on the other.
“D…”
She sighed.
Suppressing her thoughts, Lu Weiyu tried hard not to dwell on all the complicated feelings.
She picked up a fork, idly poking at the cookies in front of her.
“Miss, would you like some milk tea?”
While Lu Weiyu was still lost in thought, Bai Yun placed a cup of bubble milk tea in front of her.
Without replying, Lu Weiyu looked up.
Her sister was still busy.
“Yun jie, thank you. But don’t you have work to do?”
She turned her head and Bai Yun appeared in her line of sight.
“It’s almost noon, and there aren’t many new customers.”
Bai Yun explained as she sat down next to Lu Weiyu.
Lu Weiyu shifted slightly, moving a bit away from Bai Yun.
“…Uh ah.”
Bai Yun felt a bit defeated.
Was she being rejected?
What a joke!
She wasn’t ugly—definitely not.
Of course, she couldn’t show her dissatisfaction.
“Are you bored? I see you keep poking the cookies with your fork without eating.”
Suppressing her annoyance, Bai Yun smiled and nudged the milk tea on the table again.
“Mm…”
Lu Weiyu nodded and took the milk tea.
She took a sip.
The strawberry-flavored milk tea was sweet and sour, quite tasty.
In her line of sight, Lu Weizhu in the distance had already stopped working and was sitting on a sofa, wiping sweat with a towel.
As she lifted her hand, the sleeve slipped down, revealing a bandaged arm.
Lu Weiyu felt restless.
“Not happy? Can you tell me why?”
Bai Yun noticed Lu Weiyu’s change in expression.
“I’m not unhappy.”
Lu Weiyu took another sip of milk tea and composed herself.
“Thank you for your concern, Yun jie.”
She expressed gratitude.
Falling silent, Bai Yun was a bit speechless.
This girl looked obedient but had such a strange personality.
Bai Yun turned her gaze to Lu Weizhu.
Lu Weizhu noticed Bai Yun’s gaze and tilted her head with a smile.
Her heart skipped a beat; the girl’s warm smile penetrated Bai Yun’s heart.
She lowered her eyes and looked at her own hands.
“Little Wei Yu.”
Rubbing her fingertips, Bai Yun’s tone remained gentle.
“If you feel bored in the hospital, you can come here to visit anytime. I’d be happy to see you and your sister.”
Bai Yun didn’t get angry.
In her eyes, the child in front of her was just a bit introverted and would gradually get better.
For such a lovely soul, Bai Yun simply couldn’t bring herself to dislike her.
“Want to have lunch together?”
As the last customer left the café, Bai Yun smiled and reached out her hand.
“…….”
Lu Weiyu slightly parted her lips.
The person before her was too kind; Lu Weiyu had thought her actions might upset Bai Yun somewhat.
“Okay.”
Glancing at her sister in the distance, Lu Weiyu nodded.
“Mm.”
Holding Lu Weiyu’s hand, Bai Yun pulled her to stand.
Smaller and lighter than Lu Weizhu, Lu Weiyu evoked a protective instinct—but it felt entirely different from how Bai Yun felt towards Lu Weizhu.
Bai Yun pressed her lips together.
“Weizhu, time to eat.”
She called Lu Weizhu over.
The three entered the back kitchen and sat around the table.
“The food was prepared in advance, just needs to be reheated. Sorry, it’s inconvenient to cook here.”
Bai Yun placed the warmed dishes on the table and wiped the oven with a damp towel.
“It’s quite a feast.”
Sitting at the table, Lu Weizhu looked at the spread.
There was fish and chicken—a truly sumptuous meal.
Her pale blue eyes sparkled.
Seeing Lu Weizhu’s eyes, Bai Yun tilted her head slightly.
She took out several pairs of chopsticks and handed them around.
“I don’t know your preferences. If you want anything, you can order takeout now and eat while you wait.”
Bai Yun took out her phone.
“Ah, no need, this is enough.”
Lu Weizhu hurriedly shook her head.
She felt touched.
Yun jie really treated her like a friend.
Even though she was just a staff member and had caused Bai Yun a lot of trouble.
Lu Weizhu didn’t know how to repay Bai Yun.
Lu Weiyu remained silent, her mood a little complicated.
She always felt Bai Yun looked at her sister a little differently.
“Little Wei Yu, try this. The meat is delicious; I stewed it until it’s tender.”
“Weizhu, do you want a chicken leg? Eat more meat, or I’m really afraid you’ll collapse from exhaustion one day.”
“Mm mm, got it, Yun jie. Wei Yu, eat this.”
The meal ended quickly.
It was lively but harmonious, with no quarrels.
Bai Yun and Lu Weizhu both helped Lu Weiyu pick food, to the point that the meat in Lu Weiyu’s bowl formed a small mountain.
Because of her poor appetite, she couldn’t eat much.
Seeing the piled-up food in her bowl made Lu Weiyu feel a bit uneasy.
After being full, the few leaned back in their chairs.
Bai Yun rubbed her belly, having overestimated their appetites and prepared too much food, she felt stuffed.
Not caring about image, she burped and wiped the grease from the corner of her mouth with a tissue.
Watching Bai Yun’s unfiltered behavior, Lu Weiyu’s eyes flickered.
The person before her was probably indeed a super good person.
With her sister working by her side, she likely didn’t need to worry.
However, Lu Weiyu had other worries.
Of course, these worries couldn’t be voiced.
Bai Yun continuously radiated kindness, and Lu Weiyu thought, maybe sharing her sister’s attention with her wouldn’t be so bad?
Lu Weiyu squinted slightly.
She stood up, moved her chair, and sat next to Bai Yun.
Having just neglected Bai Yun a moment ago, not knowing how to start a conversation, Lu Weiyu remained silent.
“What’s wrong? Little Wei Yu?”
Not close enough in their relationship, Bai Yun didn’t make a move, just glanced at Lu Weiyu.
“Um…Yun jie is a really good person. I want to be friends with Yun jie.”
After a moment of thought, Lu Weiyu said this.
“Sure, perfect timing. I’m friends with your sister too.”
Bai Yun smiled.
She hadn’t expected Lu Weiyu to open up so quickly.
Under Lu Weizhu’s gaze, the two gently bumped fists.
Lu Weizhu was especially happy today.
Her only friend and her only family member had become friends, and they seemed to get along well.
