Reborn as a woman in a superpowered society: My father remarried and gained an older sister.

17. Would you like some of my noodles?

Is the answer no or yes?

It is both a denial and an affirmation.

Gu Qing looked at the iced cola that Zhou Jie had shoved into his hand, then at Su Yuexi, who was sweating profusely on the basketball court, and gently shook his head.

Just when Zhou Jie thought Gu Qing had chosen to deny it, he saw Gu Qing casually pick up a bottle of room temperature mineral water from the shelf.

After paying the bill, Gu Qing walked towards the court, explaining softly:

"Don't you know that you shouldn't drink cold drinks after strenuous exercise?"

"After exercise, the endocrine metabolism is in an excited state, and the heart receives a sufficient blood supply. Drinking cold drinks at this time can easily lead to sudden death."

Gu Qing spoke lightly as she walked towards the playground.

Gu Qing's appearance was always striking, no matter the occasion.

With her jet-black, smooth hair, stunningly beautiful face, simple and conservative attire, and cool and aloof demeanor, she has become the dream girl of countless young women.

At that moment, they noticed that their idol, holding a bottle of mineral water, was slowly walking towards the court with graceful steps.

Damn!

Is my crush going to deliver water to some girl?

In an instant, disbelief and incredulity flashed through their minds.

However, this happened very quickly.

Faced with the sudden relationship she had established with Su Xiyue, Gu Qing was not as reserved as she had imagined.

Now that we've become family, it's only natural that we should look after each other.

Whether it was to repay Aunt Su for taking care of him and his son, or for Su Xiyue's own sake, Gu Qing felt that he should take care of Su Xiyue.

Although nominally the "older sister," Gu Qing, who has lived two lives, sees Su Xiyue more as a child.

What is this?

Half a daughter?

Gu Qing thought to herself.

Su Xiyue, who was sweating profusely on the court, couldn't take her eyes off Gu Qing after catching a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye.

No matter how fun a ball game is, can it compare to having a handsome guy?

Naturally, the ongoing ball game came to an abrupt end with Gu Qing's arrival.

Faced with this unattainable beauty from No. 2 Middle School, Su Xiyue's friends were either reserved or nervous, some whistling in relaxation, and others hissing in Su Xiyue's ear.

Not far away, pairs of eyes were focused on them.

Su Xiyue's thoughts were in turmoil at this moment.

Faced with all sorts of gazes, she could clearly feel the envy in them.

There were those who envied, those who were jealous, those who found it hard to believe, and those who hated that they could not take their place.

Even though the two walked into the school gate together in the morning, Su Xiyue still felt the pressure brought by Gu Qing at that moment.

That wasn't from Gu Qing herself, but rather from the pressure emanating from her surroundings caused by her existence.

But soon, when Gu Qingzhen walked up to her, looking at the stunningly handsome young man before her, who was so otherworldly even in his school uniform, Su Xiyue suddenly felt that everything seemed so natural.

Ah!

These lecherous women are just jealous of me!

With this thought, a sense of pride and superiority arises spontaneously.

Gu Qing had no idea that Su Xiyue had come up with so many ideas in such a short time.

He simply walked over, noticed the fine beads of sweat on the girl's forehead, handed her a bottle of room-temperature mineral water, and said softly:

"Have some water, drink slowly, don't choke."

At this moment, several hisses rang out, seemingly jeering.

"Thanks, Gu Qing."

Under everyone's gaze, Su Xiyue took the water and unscrewed the bottle cap.

The girl raised her fair neck, letting the clear liquid flow in, dispelling the heat after exercise.

"I'm leaving now, see you after school."

After leaving those words, Gu Qing turned and left, the red ribbon in her ponytail fluttering in the breeze.

Only after Gu Qing's figure disappeared into the teaching building did an even louder chorus of boos erupt from the sports field.

Just like the boys in my past life, who were loud and boisterous, the girls on the court were also making all sorts of noises.

Gu Qing was well aware that her actions would spark some rumors.

But compared to all that, getting along naturally with Su Xiyue and making the newly formed family harmonious is more important than anything else.

……

In the afternoon, in the classroom of Class 1, Grade 12, Gu Qing could clearly feel the change in the eyes of the girls in the class.

The various complex expressions and emotions made the atmosphere in the whole class seem strange.

Gu Qing knew exactly what these girls were thinking.

It's nothing more than possessiveness at play, as if their territory has been invaded.

The boys, on the other hand, started interacting with Gu Qing frequently.

Gu Qing, who had always been on the fringes of the male group due to jealousy, suddenly gained acceptance from many people.

Although Gu Qing didn't care about this kind of acceptance.

But without a doubt, Gu Qing's behavior was tantamount to stepping down from his lofty pedestal and beginning to be tainted by the colors of mortals.

This move undoubtedly brought a sense of balance to the boys' minds.

The complex atmosphere that lingered in the classroom did not last long, and it completely dissipated after the teacher announced, "Let the exam begin."

Adolescent romances between men and women may be a part of youth, but they are by no means the main theme.

No. 2 High School is a key high school. There may be a few idiots who can get in, but most people are quite serious about their studies.

The exam continued until school ended in the afternoon.

At times like this, Gu Qing couldn't help but sigh.

Although the students in this world also face great academic pressure, they are not as stressed as the senior high school students in the previous life.

If it were my senior year of high school in my previous life, I wouldn't be able to go home before 9 p.m.

Gu Qing packed her schoolbag and followed the crowd out of the classroom.

Upon arriving at the school gate, I saw Su Xiyue with her arms around several girls.

Upon seeing Gu Qing, Su Xiyue's friends tactfully whistled goodbye.

"Let's go home."

Gu Qing said something and took the first step.

Su Xiyue quickly followed, and the two of them cast long shadows against the setting sun.

……

After returning home, Su Changqin's message came through the group chat of our loving family.

The gist of it is that she and Gu Yuan will be having dinner with some friends tonight, and Gu Qing and Su Xiyue will have to take care of their own dinner.

That's not surprising at all.

It was perfectly normal and reasonable for Su Changqin to introduce Gu Yuan to her friends.

The couple is planning to remarry, but it's inconvenient to have a big celebration, so they probably won't hold a wedding ceremony.

More likely, it's an invitation to close friends and family to have a meal together, serving as a form of witnessing and notification.

Gu Qing had no objection to this; on the contrary, she was delighted to see it.

This at least shows that Su Changqin values ​​Gu Yuan.

But as for dinner...

After thinking for a moment, Gu Qing tied on an apron and asked Su Xiyue, who was lying on the sofa:

"It's just the two of us for dinner. Would you like some if I made noodles?"

Do you want some of this?

Su Xiyue's gaze involuntarily lingered on Gu Qing's waist.
