“Ahhh! Lin Shuangxue, why aren’t you wearing any clothes!”
Amid the girl’s panic, Lin Shuangxue slowly woke up.
Her head was still foggy from the hangover, a bit disoriented. She held her head, forced herself to sit up, and barely opened her eyes.
Her vision was blurry at first, like uneven patches of color on a canvas, but quickly cleared. With that clarity, Lin Shuangxue saw Jiang Cheng curled up in the corner of the bed, huddled in the corner of the room.
At the same time, the blanket covering Lin Shuangxue slipped off with her movement.
This startled Jiang Cheng. She gasped and covered her face, but her fingers unconsciously left small gaps—both afraid and unable to resist stealing glances at Lin Shuangxue.
On her end, Lin Shuangxue’s first thought after waking was: ‘Isn’t it normal to sleep without clothes? Sleeping naked is very healthy.’
Then…
“Jiang Cheng, why are you in my room?”
“Not ‘sisters’!” Jiang Cheng’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“This is our room! Our bed! Our blanket, okay!”
‘Is that so?’
Lin Shuangxue looked closely and realized it seemed to be true. She tried to recall what happened last night, but remembered nothing—only that she had been very hot and found a comfortable pillow to hug while sleeping.
‘So, did I really go to the wrong room?’
Even so, Lin Shuangxue frowned in dissatisfaction.
She didn’t like the word “sisters”—it was too distant. And what did she mean by “her room, her blanket”? In the end, wasn’t it all mine?
‘She’s also mine…’
In any case, facing each other naked with an older sister figure was too much for Jiang Cheng’s young heart to handle.
Moreover, the other person was Lin Shuangxue, who only ever looked at people with a cold face.
So Jiang Cheng, without even changing clothes, got up, put on her shoes, and fled in panic.
In the living room, she saw Jiang Xiaotang.
The girl was sitting on the sofa, holding the large tablet Jiang Cheng had bought her, swinging her legs and humming a tune, swiping through videos with her small hands.
Hearing the familiar footsteps behind her, the girl turned around with a bright smile. “Big sister, you’re awake~.”
Seeing her sister’s cute and obedient appearance, Jiang Cheng felt much more at ease.
She sat down next to the girl and took her hand.
“Little Tang, I want to ask you a favor.”
“Huh?” The girl was puzzled, not understanding what her sister meant.
“Please, tonight, come sleep in my room.”
“…Huh?”
“In any case, it’s too dangerous for a girl to sleep alone…” Jiang Cheng said with lingering fear. “At any moment, some bad guy might come in and do unspeakable things to you.”
‘Eh, is that so?’
Jiang Xiaotang blushed and lowered her head.
‘Anyway, having a clingy older sister is such a hassle… Sleeping alone is unsafe? Mmm… no matter how you look at it, it’s just an excuse from big sister…’
‘Hmm… maybe big sister slept with Lin Shuangxue because she was scared to sleep alone?’
‘Oh dear, big sister is so old, yet still so timid and afraid of the dark, even asking her middle school sister for comfort—how strange~.’
‘But since it’s big sister’s request, Little Tang has no choice~.’
“Okay~.” Jiang Xiaotang obediently replied.
A smile appeared on Jiang Cheng’s face.
A smile also appeared on the girl’s face.
Then, she heard her sister say, “Little Tang, don’t forget to bring the bedding and sheets.”
“Bedding and sheets?” The girl tilted her head in confusion. “What does big sister need those for?”
“To sleep on the floor, of course.” Jiang Cheng said without thinking.
“…Ah?”
“What else?” Jiang Cheng gave her a strange look. “Where else would Little Tang sleep?”
Jiang Xiaotang seriously looked at Jiang Cheng’s face, confirmed that her sister wasn’t joking, and her face fell.
“Fine then…” Lowering her head reluctantly, Jiang Xiaotang secretly glanced at her sister’s expression but didn’t see any sign of reluctance.
‘Boo hoo… shouldn’t she see how miserable Little Tang is and reluctantly agree to sleep together?’
‘Books are all lies…’
When Jiang Xiaotang turned around, Jiang Cheng revealed a smile of successful scheming.
Having spent so much time with the girl day and night, how could she not see Jiang Xiaotang’s feelings for her that went beyond sisterly affection?
Although they weren’t blood-related, logically it shouldn’t be a problem.
‘But Little Tang is still a minor. I’m a person with principles—I would never do something that wouldn’t pass censorship.’
‘If Little Tang still feels this way in ten years… I’ll deal with it then.’
“Big sister, breakfast~.”
Jiang Xiaotang quickly adjusted her mood, took Jiang Cheng’s hand, and led her to the dining table.
Breakfast wasn’t sumptuous, but it was made with care. After all, Jiang Xiaotang was just a middle school girl—it couldn’t be helped to demand more.
Logically, the food should have gone cold long ago, but surprisingly, the milk was still steaming.
Jiang Cheng was already used to it. As a lazy moe girl who couldn’t get up on time more than once, Jiang Xiaotang would make a fresh batch for her.
As for the previous batch, Jiang Xiaotang would take hers and deliver the hot food to the maids, cleaners, or the security guard at the gate of the villa.
That way, when Jiang Cheng got up, she could eat hot food, and Little Tang could also eat with her big sister.
Of course, if it was a workday and she had to go to school, there was no way.
Breakfast was finished quickly. Jiang Cheng put down her chopsticks and rubbed the girl’s head as a reward.
“Little Tang’s breakfast is very delicious. I really like it.”
“Ehehe…”
The girl squinted her eyes, enjoying her sister’s tenderness.
After rubbing, Jiang Cheng stood up.
‘Time to get down to business.’
Jiang Cheng summoned the system panel and was about to teleport to Ye Xiqiu’s place, but then thought of something and suddenly stopped.
“Little Tang?”
Hearing her sister call her, Jiang Xiaotang looked up and obediently watched her.
“If Lin Shuangxue asks where I went later, just say I went shopping with a friend, got it?”
“Mhm!”
“Good, such a good girl…”
After giving the instructions, Jiang Cheng rubbed the girl’s head again, then clicked teleport and arrived at Ye Xiqiu’s room.
