Ning Wanciu sat alone in the living room.
She stared at her phone with a trace of helplessness.
An Yu was avoiding her.
Even if she were an idiot, she could still tell. An Yu’s reaction toward her made her genuinely unsure whether to feel sad or happy.
Because she was not stupid, she knew exactly why An Yu was avoiding her.
That girl, whose actions were always difficult to read, like someone operating on a different wavelength, was gradually becoming aware of her own existence. Because of that, she had grown shy.
Shy because of what happened last night.
This was not a bad thing. In fact, it could be considered a good thing. It meant that, to An Yu, she counted as someone worth falling for. Otherwise, there would be no need for her to feel this shy.
But even though everything was clear in her heart, the moment she saw An Yu avoiding her like this, Ning Wanciu still felt a hint of disappointment.
Last night, she had really gone too far. She had not even given her a chance to explain.
Up to the girl’s somewhat intense heartbeat.
An Yu had anxiously pulled her into bed without saying a single word. Yet last night, Ning Wanciu had held An Yu close, listening to the sound of her heartbeat.
Ning Wanciu knew this was the first time An Yu had felt moved because of her.
All in all, she had still pushed the outcome forward. However, this would inevitably change their daily life.
Even so, Ning Wanciu did not regret it.
Although she still felt somewhat lost, she no longer intended to run away.
In the past, she could not see any hope and had been afraid that An Yu would think she was a pervert and flee from her side.
But after what happened last night, Ning Wanciu understood that An Yu was not repulsed by her behavior. Instead, she would give some unexpected reactions.
So it was possible to make a move on An Yu after all.
Ning Wanciu subconsciously raised her own hand and looked at it with a dazed expression.
She could still recall the warmth of An Yu’s body last night, along with the soft, jade-like sensation when she touched her.
Even while feeling shy, An Yu had still allowed her to hold her.
Ning Wanciu was the type of person who would grow greedy once she obtained something.
Having gotten this much, she wanted even more.
Therefore, to obtain more, she had to take the initiative. She had to be even more proactive.
Click—
While Ning Wanciu was thinking, the bathroom door opened.
Two small hands held each other as they walked out.
Ning Wanciu smiled and stood up, her tone as gentle as ever.
“Done? It looks like you’ve finished washing up.”
“Ah, yeah, we’re done, we’re done.”
Ning Dongli nodded somewhat awkwardly.
Although she had been playing the supporting role, Ning Wanciu did not know that. So when facing her older sister, she could not help feeling a bit embarrassed.
Ning Wanciu, however, acted as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that An Yu did not respond, Ning Wanciu deliberately leaned closer to her side and raised her hand to rub the girl’s small head.
“What’s wrong?”
An Yu froze for a moment but did not react much. She only lowered her head slightly, her cheeks tinged with a faint blush, yet she did not struggle.
It was clearly just an ordinary touch, but now An Yu felt that something was strange about it.
“Nothing…”
An Yu’s voice was soft and gentle, even quieter than usual.
She felt uncomfortable, and the sound of her heartbeat was so annoying.
Ning Wanciu still acted as if she had not noticed. After gently patting An Yu’s head, she pinched her delicate cheek.
“You don’t look like you’re fine at all.”
She forced An Yu to lift her head and meet her gaze. The smile in her eyes was impossible to hide.
An Yu blinked in confusion and subconsciously tilted her head.
“Look, your face is a bit red. Are you sick?”
This felt strangely familiar. It was as if she had once…
Before An Yu could figure it out, her waist was already being embraced by Ning Wanciu.
An Yu’s eyes widened. A rare look of shock appeared in her amber-colored eyes.
In her vision, the golden-haired girl was slowly leaning closer.
Is she… Is she going to kiss me again?
An Yu, who had just been kissed by Ning Wanciu last night, had her mind filled with these thoughts and subconsciously assumed as much.
She stared at Ning Wanciu in a panic, not knowing what she should do.
In the end, An Yu could only close her eyes in a flustered manner, allowing Ning Wanciu to approach.
Anyway, it was not like she could refuse anymore.
However, An Yu ultimately did not receive the kiss she expected.
Instead, the other party simply pressed their foreheads together.
“Hmm…?”
An Yu opened her eyes in confusion.
She saw Ning Wanciu with a serious expression before speaking softly.
“Mm. It doesn’t seem like you have a fever. So it looks like you’re just too hot.”
An Yu had not expected Ning Wanciu to suddenly do this and gradually relaxed.
Her actions had completely stunned both Ning Dongli and An Yu. Neither of them had expected Ning Wanciu to suddenly release An Yu’s waist, allowing the girl’s tense body to gradually relax.
“Then I’ll go wash up. See you in a bit.”
Ning Wanciu smiled and nodded. At the same time, she gave Ning Dongli a meaningful glance before heading to the bathroom alone.
Ning Dongli blinked blankly.
She looked in the direction Ning Wanciu had left, then at the red-faced An Yu. Her mind went completely blank.
What was that just now? Was my big sister declaring war on me??
No way, was she serious?! This… This is still my big sister? This is still Ning Wanciu?
That look in her eyes was practically saying… “If you want to chase An Yu, at least reach this level, okay?”
No, forget it. For now, let’s check on An Yu first.
Ning Dongli walked over to An Yu’s side and gently tugged at her hand.
“An Yu… Are you okay?”
At this moment, An Yu dazedly turned her head to look at Ning Dongli. A trace of crimson still lingered on her cheeks, making her look quite adorable.
“Mm.”
She nodded but did not say anything more.
But no matter how you looked at it, An Yu did not seem fine at all.
Of course, it was not just An Yu and Ning Dongli who were confused.
Even Ning Wanciu herself, the one who had done all this, was not as calm as she appeared.
She stood in front of the mirror, looking at the golden-haired girl whose face was flushed red in the reflection. She subconsciously covered her cheeks with her hands.
“Ah, seriously!!”
Ning Wanciu lowered her head, but no matter how hard she tried not to think about it, she could not hide the shyness in her heart.
Whether it was pressing their foreheads together or teasing Ning Dongli with her eyes, she had done it on purpose.
She had already said it before—she was not an idiot.
After last night’s impulsive moment, Ning Wanciu had finally figured out what was going on with Ning Dongli.
By using this method to encourage her to become more proactive and to let her win An Yu over.
Ning Wanciu had, just as Ning Dongli wished, become proactive herself.
But at the same time, these two sisters had used the same method to encourage each other.
She had chosen to use a mocking gaze to spur Ning Dongli into action.
Although Ning Wanciu did not know if it would succeed, she knew one thing for certain.
Using An Yu’s methods to deal with An Yu, the first one who could not hold it together would definitely be herself.
Just by looking at the bright red face of the girl in the mirror, she knew it.
She was not An Yu, nor was she naturally airheaded.
Unfortunately, while An Yu could do things like that with a clear conscience, Ning Wanciu could not.
