The white rose I picked up cried and said she liked me.

After getting a computer, the brother and sister became completely engrossed in the world of games.

An unused room in the house has been transformed into a gaming room. Two monitors are placed on the black gaming table, two computer cases are humming, and the fans emit a soft yet cool light that shines into the room through the glass of the computer cases, creating a great atmosphere.

Xu Xi sat cross-legged on the ergonomic chair, holding a game controller, with a strawberry-flavored lollipop in her mouth, her cheeks puffed out, completely focused on controlling the character in the game.

Who would have thought that the fairy who used to wash her hair every day and had hair as smooth as a waterfall has not washed her hair for a whole week since she became addicted to games?

Her long, silver hair was casually draped over her shoulders, so greasy it was almost reflective, and in some places it was tangled and knotted, sticking messily to her neck, making her look quite disheveled.

After all, for girls, especially those with long hair down to their waist, washing their hair is the most troublesome thing in the world, often taking at least an hour, and drying their hair takes even more time.

This skill level is enough for Xu Xi to defeat several bosses on Black Wind Mountain or complete several missions in Night City.

Instead of wasting time washing your hair, it's more worthwhile to play games for a while longer.

Even the stockings on her legs hadn't been changed for days; the white soles of her feet were stained with light gray marks. A closer sniff revealed a faint sour smell.

A girl's cleanliness and beauty are always maintained through diligence. Without the blessing of diligence, Xu Xi completely transformed from an ethereal fairy into a slovenly, unkempt girl.

Even the iconic tuft of hair on her head seemed to disapprove of her owner's lazy and slovenly appearance, drooping listlessly and sticking to her fair forehead, devoid of its usual liveliness.

With a "click," the door to the e-sports room was pushed open, and Xu Nian rubbed her sleepy eyes, carrying a half-empty can of cola as she walked in. She yawned as she dragged her feet to Xu Xi's side, her face still showing signs of sleepiness.

Xu Xi casually took the Coke from the man's hand. She gulped it down in one go, then let out a loud burp.

Xu Nian shook her head, both amused and exasperated, looking at her lazy appearance.

Where did her beautiful, dignified, hardworking, and virtuous Xiaoxi go? How did she turn into a lazy, homebody?

But then he thought again that he didn't seem to have the right to criticize Xu Xi.

He was even lazier than Xu Xi. He had been wearing the same pajamas for half a month without washing them, and the collar was stained. He had a messy, unkempt hairstyle on his head, and his hair was so long that it could almost be tied into a small braid. He looked even more unkempt than Xu Xi.

Perhaps realizing her lapse in composure, Xu Xi's face flushed slightly. She coughed lightly and said softly, "Brother, don't you have class this afternoon? Why aren't you going?"

Xu Nian scratched her messy hair and chuckled, "I'm not going, I'm not going. I'll ask Jiang Xun to call my name when he takes attendance. They say a college life without skipping classes is incomplete, so I have to experience it too."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xi couldn't help but laugh, covering her mouth and letting out a series of silvery laughs: "Brother, you've become naughty."

"Isn't that what I learned from you?" Xu Nian reached out and flicked her little nose, teasingly saying, "I remember you've been skipping class for half a month, right? You still have the nerve to say that to me."

"I... I applied to the teacher for an off-campus study tour, it wasn't skipping class! Brother, don't talk nonsense!"

"So, you're out on a research trip, trying to figure out how many hairs the black bear spirit has, huh?"

"Ahhh, stop talking!" Xu Xi, whose lie had been exposed, blushed and her cheeks burned, her ears turning bright red.

She flailed her little pink fists wildly, then covered Xu Nian's mouth with her hand, pouting, "Then what legitimate reason does brother have for skipping class?"

"Me?" Xu Nian gave a funny look. "Of course, I'm just like you, staying home and playing games."

After saying that, he bent down and picked up Xu Xi's petite body, sat down on the ergonomic chair, placed Xu Xi on his lap, letting her lean against him, and picked up another game controller: "Want to play a two-player game together?"

"Okay, okay!" Xu Xi clapped her hands happily, clicked the mouse, and opened the two-player game client.

Xu Nian habitually ran her fingers through Xu Xi's long silver hair and gently rubbed it.

The expected delicate floral scent didn't come; instead, my fingertips felt oily.

He frowned subconsciously and asked, "Xiaoxi, how long has it been since you washed your hair? It's so oily!"

Xu Xi tilted her head and thought about it seriously: "About a week."

Xu Nian let out an "Eh," then feigned disgust as she pulled her hand back and wiped it with a tissue from the table: "Why have you become so lazy? If you keep this up, your hair could be used to cook vegetables."

Xu Xi pouted shyly and muttered, "But washing my hair is such a hassle, I don't want to do it."

Xu Nian smiled and teased, "Why don't you go shave your head? If you don't have hair, you won't need to wash it."

"No, no!" Xu Xi shook her head like a rattle drum. "That would be too embarrassing. I wouldn't be able to face anyone then."

"Hey, I remember you didn't wash your face this morning, did you?"

"Hmph, brother, you're still nagging me. You haven't shaved in ages either! Last night... last night when we were doing 'that,' your beard was so prickly, it made my skin all red!"

Xu Nian touched his thick stubble, an awkward smile appearing on his face. He scratched his head, speechless for a moment.

That's right, the lazy brother and lazy sister, neither of them should say anything to the other, they're both the same.

The two stopped attacking each other for being lazy and focused intently on the game.

"Xiaoxi, wait a minute, I'll go turn on that switch first, then you can come over."

"Brother, hurry up! I'm getting impatient!"

"Oh dear, don't be in such a hurry. Why are you in such a rush? I'm not in a hurry, so why are you? The emperor isn't worried, but the eunuchs are."

"Who are you calling a eunuch?!"

Xu Xi puffed out her cheeks in anger, turned around, grabbed Xu Nian's arm, and bit it hard.

"Aww!"

......

In the cat room next to the e-sports room, Mai Mai wriggled her plump body, skillfully jumped onto the cabinet, used her sharp claws to tear open a bag of cat food, and then, holding the bag, began to enjoy her "buffet" with relish.

Hearing the sounds of playful fighting and game effects coming from the next room, Mai Mai stopped eating, raised her round head, and let out a resentful meow. Her two large amber eyes were filled with helplessness and grievance.

Ever since the two two-legged creatures in the house became obsessed with games, they have completely forgotten about it. No one feeds it cat food on time, grooms it, or plays with it anymore.

Fortunately, it was smart enough to eat the cat food on the shelf by itself and to drink water from its owner's cup, so it didn't become an owner's cat that starved to death.

MaiMai glanced in the direction of the e-sports room, then lowered her head and continued to eat.
