Sister, can I be a maid too?

Seeing her like this, Jiang Yubai said in a light tone:

"It's good that there are no problems. Your sister should be very happy to know."

As soon as he finished speaking, he vaguely felt that he had forgotten something.

What have I forgotten...?

Oh my god!

Jiang Yubai slapped his forehead and quickly took his phone out of his bag.

Damn it, I forgot to keep in touch with Xia Jianjian.

He turned on his phone and opened QQ. As soon as he clicked into the chat box named 'Little Hedgehog', a bunch of messages popped up.

[Little Hedgehog]: What do you want to eat? Tell me.

[Little Hedgehog]: Hey, hey, hey, Moshi Moshi?

[Little Hedgehog]: Strange... Is my phone out of gas?

This was when Lin Jianxia asked him what he wanted for dinner. He had just said stir-fried pork with chili peppers when his teacher came in, which startled him so much that he quickly hid his phone.

Well, then he forgot about it and never took it out again.

[Little Hedgehog]: Hey, hey, it's noon. What happened to our regular contact?

[Little Hedgehog]: It's afternoon! Where are you?!

The last message was posted just ten minutes ago:

[Little Hedgehog]: I'm going to cook for you guys, you can eat when I get back.

[Little Hedgehog]: You only said stir-fried pork with chili peppers, and I was free to improvise the rest. Don't complain when you get back!

Jiang Yubai's lips unconsciously curled up slightly as he typed a message back to her with one hand.

【江碧鸟逾白】: I'm back, I'm back. I didn't have time to send a message before.

[Jiang Bi Niao Yu Bai]: Listen, you're in great shape this evening, no need to worry.

After waiting for about ten seconds, Lin Jianxia still didn't reply, probably because she was cooking.

Jiang Yubai turned off his phone and put it back in his pocket. Just as he turned his head, he saw Lin Tingwan looking at him curiously.

“Your sister was worried about you,” he explained with a smile. “She just let me know she was safe.”

"Oh right, she's already started cooking, so we can eat as soon as we get back, so..."

Are you still buying the chicken wings?

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Tingwan suddenly stopped and nodded emphatically at him.

"Okay, okay," Jiang Yubai said, somewhat amused and exasperated. "Buy, buy, buy."

After staring at him for a couple more times, Lin Tingwan suddenly took a step toward him and grabbed his wrist with her small hand.

Jiang Yubai blinked and subconsciously shook his arm.

But the evening was very tense, and a pair of beautiful eyes were staring at him.

stare--

"I won't run away, I'll really buy it for you... Let's go, let's go."

Jiang Yubai shook his head, somewhat amused.

After passing through the alley and walking two more blocks, you will arrive at the snack street at the entrance of Jinxiu New Village.

Just as he expected, after the typhoon passed, the vendors, who had been waiting for a long time, set up their stalls early, and the whole street was full of life.

Jiang Yubai stopped in front of the familiar barbecue stall:

"Auntie, three skewers of chicken wings, and nothing else... nothing else."

"Okay~"

The stall owner smiled and replied, "Two skewers of mild spice and one skewer of medium spice, right? I'll also give you two skewers of grilled mushrooms as a bonus."

Jiang Yubai blinked:

"That's so kind of you, thank you so much, Auntie."

"That's right," the aunt said while flipping the skewers. "The typhoon has delayed things for too long. If we don't attract some regular customers, the business will really go under."

"Don't worry, Auntie," Jiang Yubai said with a smile, "The person next to me is your number one fan of chicken wings."

"Oh, I know, I know. Auntie should thank you for your frequent patronage."

As she spoke, she looked at Lin Tingwan with a smile.

"Little girl, would you like to try something a bit spicier today? I've been bored these past few days, so I've modified the recipe a bit."

Jiang Yubai was about to say something when he saw Lin Tingwan stare at the chicken wings for a few seconds and then suddenly nod slightly.

"Okay~"

He abruptly turned to look at the girl beside him, a look of astonishment unconsciously appearing on his face.

—No, could it be that the reason for the improvement in the condition is really the chicken wings?

—Why are they all nodding?!

After receiving the chicken wings, Lin Tingwan blew on them a few times and then eagerly began to take small bites.

Jiang Yubai took the little glutton upstairs. As soon as he took out his key, opened the door, and stepped into the foyer, he saw Lin Jianxia dart out of the living room.

She circled her younger sister, examining her carefully from head to toe until she was completely unharmed, then let out a long sigh of relief and said softly with a pained expression:

"Wanwan... I was so worried about you..."

Lin Tingwan looked at her, blinked, and suddenly stepped forward to give her a gentle hug.

Lin Jianxia's expression froze for a moment, then she grinned foolishly, nuzzling her younger sister's head contentedly like a cat being stroked.

"Does Wanwan miss her sister?"

Jiang Yubai, watching the guy's silly, grinning expression, suppressed a laugh and said:

"I told you it would be fine. What could happen if I was watching from the side?"

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it; the moment he did, Lin Jianxia's eyebrows furrowed instantly:

"Jiang Yubai! What did you say?! You agreed to contact me anytime. I don't need you to contact me every two hours, but you don't have to contact me all day after school either!"

".....I was wrong."

Jiang Yubai instantly slid to his knees.

"Oh right, I bought you chicken wings."

Lin Jianxia released her younger sister, took the chicken wing, and snorted:

"At least you still have a conscience... The ribs will be ready in ten minutes. I'll take my sister back first, and I'll be right back."

After saying that, he took Lin Tingwan's hand and walked outside.

-----------------

In the small room.

The two sisters sat down on the edge of the bed, and Lin Jianxia couldn't wait to ask:

"Wanwan, how are you? Are you adjusting well to school? Is anyone bullying you?"

Lin Tingwan thought for a moment and then gently shook her head.

But then she glanced at her older sister, took out a notebook from her pocket, wrote a line, and handed it over.

Lin Jianxia didn't think anything of it at first, assuming that her younger sister wanted to share some of her school experiences.

But when she saw the handwriting on the notebook clearly, she froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

On the small notebook, there was only one line of neat handwriting:

"Sister, Jiang Yubai said he's interested in you."

Chapter 113 Lin Jianxia seems to resemble her a little.

"Sister, Jiang Yubai said he's interested in you."

Looking at the handwriting on the notebook, Lin Jianxia froze on the spot, her mind going completely blank.

She stared blankly at those words for several seconds, then suddenly her ears turned bright red and she shouted loudly:

"No, no... When did he say that?! Why would he say such things in front of you?!"

Lin Jianxia stood up abruptly, instinctively wanting to rush out to find Jiang Yubai and ask him for clarification, but she stopped just as she stepped to the door and hurriedly turned back.

My heart felt like it had been scratched by a kitten's claws—itchy and chaotic.

A mixture of embarrassment, panic, and a hint of inexplicable shyness swirled within her.

How could he... how could he say such a thing in front of Wanwan!

—How am I supposed to face him after this?!

Lin Tingwan blinked, watching her older sister spinning around in place, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.

After circling around twice more, Lin Jianxia sat back down on the edge of the bed and stammered, "..."

"Um... what did he say?"

The girl bit her lip, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes, her eyes darting around, but she dared not look into her sister's clear eyes again.

Lin Tingwan thought for a moment, then wrote a line and handed it over.

Lin Jianxia suppressed her pounding heart, held her breath, and looked down intently:

"By the way, what does your sister usually like to do? She seems quite interesting."

You pervert! You bastard!

Upon seeing these words, Lin Jianxia was instantly enraged.

Who asks their younger sister what her older sister likes to do? If you're going to ask, why not just ask directly?
