Chapter 32: What Should I Do

The elevator doors opened, and a figure rushed forward.

“Xue’er~ You’re finally back!”

Caught off guard, Yixin Xue fell on her backside.

“Ow… Sister, why’re you here so early?”

She rubbed her sore bottom.

“It’s almost 5:30! Early?”

Yingnan Xue reached out, pinching her cheeks.

“Out on a date with your little boyfriend?”

“Not my boyfriend yet…”

Yixin Xue mumbled softly.

“Eh? Not yet? Didn’t you seal the deal yesterday?”

Yingnan Xue looked shocked.

“Don’t tell me… you didn’t do anything…?”

“Of course not!”

Yixin Xue flushed with embarrassment.

“I’m not that… that…”

She wanted to say she wasn’t that bold, but recalling her actions…

How was she not bold?

“Alright, no teasing. I got roast duck. Let’s eat at home?”

Yingnan Xue got off her, then paused.

“You didn’t already eat with your little boyfriend, did you?”

“I said he’s not my boyfriend…”

She grumbled, dissatisfied.

“But it’s close. He’s wavering. Just a matter of time…”

She thought of the park today, her face flushing again.

He was so serious for once…

“Eh? You tied your hair? With a bell! Let me see—is it from Ling Yuan?”

Yingnan Xue noticed the change, reaching out curiously.

“No way!”

Yixin Xue turned, shielding her hair.

“No touching!”

“Yo~ So it is from him~”

Seeing her puffed-up face, Yingnan Xue burst out laughing, pinching her cheeks again.

“Open the door quick. Oh, and give me your spare key~ I bet you’ll be coming home late a lot.”

“Hm?”

Yixin Xue, fishing for her keys, gave her a puzzled look.

“Your big sister’s been in love before. Don’t you want to do some naughty stuff after school?”

“He’d have to agree first…”

She lowered her head, unlocking the door.

“I want to bring him home… but he won’t…”

“Not assertive enough.”

Yingnan Xue shook her head, smiling.

“Guys are like that. If you’re soft, they think you’re weak and harder to tame.”

“Really…?”

Yixin Xue tilted her head, thoughtful.

It made sense, but she didn’t want to upset him… If she went too far, would he ignore her?

That’d be a huge loss…

She kicked off her shoes and opened the cat bag. Xinxin Meow shot out like lightning, burying its face in its food bowl, devouring eagerly.

Seeing this, Yingnan Xue shook her head.

“Look how hungry Xinxin Meow is. You two were so lost in your little world, you forgot about it, huh?”

“Uh…”

Yixin Xue was speechless. She’d been fixated on Ling Yuan all afternoon.

“I… I’ll cook…”

The embarrassment made her want to flee.

But before she could grab a knife, Yingnan Xue leaned in, pressing her cheek against hers.

“Wow~ So warm~”

“No!”

She tried to stay calm, but her heart was racing.

“Xue’er, always so proud.”

Yingnan Xue chuckled softly.

“Tomorrow, I wanna see what kind of guy’s got you so smitten~”

“Ugh…”

“Tomorrow’s Halloween~ What kind of candy should I prepare for Ling Yuan to show my sincerity~?”

“No giving him anything!”

“What’s that? Like an angry kitten~”

Yingnan Xue hugged her from behind.

“It’s weird~ We’re twins, so why are your buns so much bigger~?”

She pouted.

As twins, aside from hair color, the biggest difference was their chests.

Yixin Xue’s were perfectly sized, a handful. Yingnan Xue’s? Flat as a board from the side.

“I… don’t know…”

“I get it~ You get all weak at that moment, don’t you~?”

“Um…”

“That won’t do~ You’ll never win Ling Yuan like that. Stay strong, never show weakness~”

“But…”

“Where’s the fierce drive you had in competitions and exams~?”

“It’s not the same…”

Yingnan Xue shook her head.

“Anyone else after Ling Yuan?”

At this, Yixin Xue’s shyness vanished, her gaze turning cold.

“Didn’t expect Yan Xi to have that kind of relationship with him.”

“Huh?”

Yingnan Xue was stunned by her sister’s 180-degree mood swing.

“Who’s Yan Xi…?”

“His sister.”

“Just a sister. They can’t marry, so why worry? In the end, it’s still…”

Before she finished, Yixin Xue added, “No blood relation.”

“She’s that kind of sister!”

Yingnan Xue gasped.

“Like in anime! She’s got an edge…”

Before she could continue, Yixin Xue’s burning anger was palpable.

She spun around, grabbing Yingnan Xue’s shoulders.

“Tell me, what should I do?”

“Uh…”

Yingnan Xue’s lips twitched.

“Let me check things out tomorrow…”

“That woman.”

Yixin Xue slammed a knife into a carrot.

“She’s just got some money. Our family’s not poor either! Compared to her, what’s my flaw? Except… except…”

“Except what?”

“Ugh…”

Yixin Xue glanced down, her eyes landing on her perfectly sized chest.

“Her buns are… about this big…”

“Damn… What’s the point of buns that big…?”

Seeing her gesture, Yingnan Xue felt a critical hit. Bigger than Yixin Xue’s? She couldn’t imagine the feel.

“So, Xue’er, you’ve got no chance…?”

“Teach me, Sister. What do I do to win all of Ling Yuan!”

She clenched her fists.

“I won’t lose to that woman!”

“I said… I’ll check it out tomorrow…”
