Do her best?
Of course An Yu would do her best.
Looking at the row of games downloading on her phone, An Yu nodded.
These were all games she wanted to try—of course, try them at the recognition banquet.
An Yu would do her best, do her best at gaming; she believed heaven wouldn’t fail those with determination.
With so many games, there had to be one suited for her!
An Yu expressionlessly stretched, her petite body forming a graceful arc.
“Mmm~” An Yu completely relaxed; Jiang Qinghe was no longer by her side.
Probably off doing those boring superficial tasks, though none of that had anything to do with An Yu.
Her only goal was to sneak away and play games in secret; if there were delicious little cakes, she could eat while playing.
Relaxing was best; she wouldn’t even do the system’s missions—and those gave physique points!
Could her cheap mom give her physique points? Obviously not!
Besides, rather than having An Yu do her best, An Yu hoped more that Jiang Qinghe would use some eye drops—or at least do a set of eye exercises if nothing else.
All those bloodshot veins were scary.
Putting away her phone, An Yu calmly walked toward the house door, not showing the slightest sign of being frightened.
Come to think of it, she didn’t seem to have seen An Qing at home.
That was good; it seemed An Qing was actively avoiding her too. She hoped it would stay that way.
“Young Miss, please get in the car.”
A maid beside her opened the car door, indicating it was time for An Yu to board.
“Mmm.”
An Yu responded softly, then sat in the car expressionlessly.
The car began to move, heading to the banquet venue.
This time, the An family had spared no expense; the place was very upscale, called… it was…
What was it called again?
An Yu didn’t remember, and she was too lazy to.
Leaning against the car window, An Yu took out her phone, opened the social app, and started scrolling, then sent a friend request to a certain account.
This was Ning Wanciu’s request; she hoped An Yu could bring her younger sister along to play games.
Of course An Yu wouldn’t refuse the big pillow’s request—just like the big pillow never refused her.
This time, she would definitely show off her super powerful gaming talent and carry the big pillow’s sister to victory.
Looking at the friend request on her phone, Ning Dongli’s brows lightly furrowed, a faint hesitation flashing in her eyes.
She didn’t really want to make friends with strangers.
Even if this stranger was introduced by her sister, she still didn’t want to add them.
In Ning Dongli’s life, the only stranger she ever wanted to meet was probably that support player with the incredibly nice voice from that day.
She still couldn’t forget it.
So where would she find time to play games with Ning Wanciu’s friend?
Wouldn’t that just be a waste of time?
Unless Ning Wanciu could actually find that support player for her, then she’d make a friend.
But was that possible?
Obviously not!
What kind of one-in-a-million wild queue teammate who falls in love at first sound turns out to be her sister’s classmate?
This wasn’t some TV drama.
“Dongli?”
A gentle voice tinged with confusion sounded; Ning Dongli subconsciously looked up. It was her sister, Ning Wanciu, calling her.
Today’s Ning Wanciu was different from usual; no longer in her spicy girl look, she wore a gown and appeared extremely elegant.
Though the gown wasn’t particularly ornate—even a bit plain—under her explosive figure, it still highlighted Ning Wanciu’s beauty.
Or rather, very few clothes could hide Ning Wanciu’s charm.
“Sis, what’s up?”
“Mmm…”
Ning Wanciu helplessly pursed her lips, seeming hesitant: “Be good at home alone; big sis will be back soon~”
In the end, Ning Wanciu didn’t say what she wanted to; she only reminded Ning Dongli to stay safe.
Ever since moving out with Ning Dongli, Ning Wanciu had come to understand her sister better.
From her expression, she could tell Ning Dongli definitely hadn’t accepted An Yu’s friend request—though Ning Wanciu felt it was only because Ning Dongli hadn’t met An Yu yet that she could bear to refuse.
But she wouldn’t force it.
“I know, I know—geez, I’m not a kid anymore!”
Ning Dongli scoffed, hugging her pillow and rolling over on the sofa, no longer looking at Ning Wanciu.
She was home alone every day; what could possibly go wrong?
“Mmm, Dongli really isn’t a kid anymore~”
Seeing Ning Dongli ignore her, Ning Wanciu smiled.
Ning Dongli stayed silent until she heard the sound of Ning Wanciu opening the door and leaving; only then did she slowly turn back.
Her sister really worried too much—though Ning Dongli wasn’t unaware of the reason for Ning Wanciu’s concern.
Ning Dongli helplessly took out her phone, looked at the friend request on the screen, and stayed silent for a long time before finally choosing to accept.
Though she felt she would definitely regret it, she still added the friend.
Because she didn’t want Ning Wanciu to worry; she wasn’t a child anymore.
At the same time, Ning Wanciu had already left the home she shared with Ning Dongli.
She had been inconsiderate about this. She thought as long as An Yu didn’t refuse, Ning Dongli could make a trustworthy good friend—but she forgot about Ning Dongli’s extreme social anxiety.
Asking Ning Dongli to add a stranger’s friend request was indeed pushing her too far.
“Sigh…”
Ning Wanciu let out a helpless sigh but then shook her head vigorously.
She wouldn’t give up.
There was no one more suitable than An Yu to be Ning Dongli’s friend.
Since Ning Dongli hadn’t added An Yu, the next time they met, she would first apologize to An Yu and then try again to arrange a meeting between An Yu and Ning Dongli.
She believed that even with her sister’s stubborn temper, the moment she saw An Yu, she wouldn’t be able to stay angry!
Ning Wanciu smiled, clenching her fists to cheer herself on; the two massive mounds shook violently with her movement.
She would definitely help her sister make a friend!
“Phew…”
After motivating herself, Ning Wanciu exhaled a breath, gently stepping forward.
She shook her head, pushing all those thoughts aside; she still had to face the trouble in front of her.
Not far from the Ning home, a car seemed to be waiting for her—the driver sent by her family.
The banquet she was attending tonight seemed different from what she had imagined.
Ning Wanciu had thought it was truly a recognition-themed banquet, but clearly, it wasn’t that simple.
You could tell from the gown sent from home.
It was an extremely gorgeous gown—covering what needed to be covered while perfectly accentuating what needed to be shown…
But this was clearly stealing the spotlight.
Was her family perhaps placing too much importance on this recognition banquet?
It felt like there was another purpose.
She wasn’t the protagonist of the banquet—why wear something like this?
Ning Wanciu didn’t want to steal anyone’s thunder.
In the end, she hung up that gown and changed into a simpler style she had worn before.
Though it still looked stunning on her, it wouldn’t be so dazzling as to overshadow the protagonist.
