My sickly little sister is too clingy, I just keep sticking to her.

"Dr. Azi, please don't make ethical jokes."

"I'm not joking."

"???"

"It's just asking you to sleep in the same bed with her, not asking you to do anything. You're siblings, what's the big deal? This is the fastest way I can think of to help her recover. You don't want your sister to have nightmares every day, do you?"

"this……"

Chen Xia hesitated.

But in the end...

He shook his head again: "Are there any other ways? This really won't work. After all, Xiaoxue isn't a child anymore; how can they sleep together?"

"You... never mind..."

Wang Zi was speechless; this young man wasn't falling for it.

Of course~

She was not lying.

For Chen Xue now, the closer the distance, the more secure she feels, and the more at ease she feels. Sleeping together is indeed the most effective way to achieve this.

result?

If Chen Xia disagrees, then forget it.

"If we're not sleeping together, then let's use the same method you used today and the day before yesterday."

"What?"

"It's like sleeping next to him in bed. As long as you're next to him, the effect is about the same. Maybe it's not as strong as sleeping directly with him, but the advantage is that you're close to him."

"Alright~"

Sleeping with someone?

Of course, he can, since he doesn't usually go to bed early anyway.

But... he still had some doubts about this method. What if it worked this time but not next time?

We need more methods so that we can be prepared for any eventuality.

After thinking it through, Chen Xia coughed lightly: "Are there any other ways? I remember you asked me why I didn't have nightmares the next day. Is there another way?"

"!!!"

(ｷ｀ﾟДﾟ´)!!

Oops!

This person discovered it.

I didn't originally intend to say this, but now... I'll just be honest.

He immediately coughed lightly: "This is just my guess; it might be related to your clothes."

"clothing?"

"What is the greatest sense of security? Touch, hearing? No! It's smell. When you fall asleep, your hearing and vision are affected, but only your sense of smell is constantly being triggered. If you smell a familiar and reassuring scent, it will naturally have a certain effect."

“…………”

Thinking about it that way...

It's not impossible, after all, Chen Xue was wearing his clothes that day.

Is this even allowed?

However... Chen Xia felt that something was off about the plot.

The younger sister could only fall asleep peacefully by wearing her brother's clothes and smelling their scent; you know, this kind of plot only exists in novels.

His lips twitched slightly: "Isn't this... a bit inappropriate?"

"What's good or bad about it? This is all for the sake of healing, you..."

however……

Wang Zi hadn't finished speaking.

Chen Xia's voice immediately came through: "Xiao Xue isn't sick."

“…………”

Damn it~

Is this the underlying code that triggered the Chen family or something else?

I don't understand!

But Wang Zi didn't argue. Instead, he continued, "Anyway... here's the method. You're his brother, so there won't be any problems."

"But you didn't have this attitude before."

"That's my problem, don't overthink it. Just do it my way. But I suggest you two sleep together, that'll be the fastest way. You..."

"That's enough!"

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Xia interrupted him.

Sleeping with Chen Xue?

impossible.

Absolutely impossible!!!

Taking a deep breath and calming herself down, Chen Xia's voice came again: "Thank you, Dr. Azi. I'm so sorry to trouble you so late."

"We're all family, what's the trouble?"

family?

The two seemed to have no blood relation, but considering Chen Xue's relationship with her, Chen Xia accepted this premise, thanked her repeatedly, and then hung up the phone.

As he looked up and saw the faint light outside the window, he felt a sense of helplessness.

Alright~

Don't sleep tonight.

Let's cook first.

Chen Xia cooked some porridge in the rice cooker and placed a steamer basket with some steamed buns she had bought earlier. This would be her breakfast for tomorrow. After finishing these tasks, Chen Xia sent a message to Chen Xue.

Breakfast is in the rice cooker, eat it first... I'm going to sleep for a while.

After sending the message, Chen Xia also fell asleep.

That's it~

As time went by.

She didn't know how much time had passed when Chen Xue's eyelashes trembled slightly. The moment she opened her eyes, she could feel that her face was very hot, and not only her face, but her whole body was also hot.

Is it because you're sick?

Do not!

It's just because of some special reasons that I can only say it's all my brother's fault. He hugged me like that yesterday, which was the most intimate contact we've had since we started living together.

Thinking about it now makes me feel a little ashamed.

Putting everything else aside~

The protruding nipples on her chest say it all.

Seriously~

However, what really bothered her was not these things, but rather the sticky feeling beneath her. As for what it was, Chen Xue knew very well after she understood.

She curled up completely under the covers.

How could I... how could I do this?

I am a pure girl, definitely not that kind of person.

And just when I was having doubts.

The phone rang.

It was a push notification, but Chen Xue also discovered an unexpected surprise: her older brother had sent her a message around 4 a.m.

What matters is not the content, but the timing.

If nothing unexpected happens, my older brother should be sleeping at this time.

Her chance has come.

To destroy evidence of a crime.

She immediately changed out of her clothes and went to the bathroom. Feeling the smooth touch, Chen Xue was extremely shy, but thankfully no one saw her.

It's okay~

However, the idea is good.

Just as she was diligently scrubbing, the sound of a door opening made Chen Xue freeze in place.

Chen Xia~

woke up.

To be precise, it should be described as being in a state of half-dreaming and half-awake.

Going to the restroom.

Then... he saw Chen Xue, and the blue and white clothes covered in foam in the sink.

At this moment~

Chen Xue froze.

Finished!

Was discovered.

Just as she was feeling nervous and at a loss, Chen Xia mumbled, "You go wash first... I'll go to the bathroom in my parents' bedroom, and..."

"???"

"You're not feeling well, you can leave this to me, or you can wait until the washing machine arrives before washing it."

As he spoke~

Chen Xia is gone.

Chen Xue, who remained where she was, breathed a sigh of relief.

It's okay~

fine……

Thankfully, my brother only needed to get up to use the restroom. Perhaps he was being very kind, but this time I had to wash myself and absolutely couldn't trouble anyone else.

As for the reason, only she knew, and then she washed it clean and hung it to dry.

Chen Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Xia was catching up on sleep at that moment.

She was the only one at home, and Chen Xue didn't go to eat. There might be something in the pot, but she didn't have any appetite because her older brother wasn't there to eat breakfast with her.

It didn't seem very interesting.

that's it……

wait.

During this process, Chen Xue opened her laptop, as it was part of her previous plan to do some things she wanted to do, but the results told her otherwise.

Feel sorry!

You don't have that talent.

I can't write it down.

If it were before, Chen Xue might have been troubled, but now... if she can't write it, she can't write it.

Because she discovered something even more interesting.

Under the guise of gathering materials, we do something special.

hee hee~

It's just a date now, so what's next?

After all, there are similar plots in both novels and anime. On the surface, they are supposed to be rehearsals, but in most cases, they turn out to be real.

As for now...

We can look forward to it a little.

While Chen Xue was engrossed in her thoughts, time was quietly passing by. Around 10:30 a.m., Chen Xia's room door opened.

To be honest~

Chen Xia was also frightened by what happened yesterday.

She thought everything was over and her younger sister had completely moved on, but reality told her that she was still a long way from a full recovery.

If it's like this at night, what about during the day?

Therefore, the first thing he did upon waking up was to look for Chen Xue.

living room?

No.

Toilet?

No.

bedroom?

nor.

Just as Chen Xia frowned slightly, feeling nervous, he saw a familiar figure in the restaurant. Chen Xue was wearing plaid pajamas.

She was resting her hand on her face, seemingly lost in thought.

A strand of hair fell across her face.

As Chen Xue exhaled, her breath swayed back and forth, as if she were in a daze, or perhaps contemplating life.

"Cough cough~"

A cough brought Chen Xue back to her senses.

Upon seeing that it was her older brother, she was momentarily dazed, then smiled slightly: "Brother~ Good morning..."

Good morning?

It's almost noon now.

However, compared to these things, he was more concerned about Chen Xue's current state, as there was nothing on the dining table in front of her.

Is it...

"You haven't eaten?"

"No~"

Why?

Chen Xue said matter-of-factly, "I don't have an appetite if I eat alone, so I'm waiting for my brother to eat with me."

In short~

Chen Xia was somewhat dazed.

Then...he laughed out loud: "Then let's eat together..."

"Okay~"

Chen Xia took the items out, looked at them, glanced at the time, and involuntarily asked, "Xiaoxue, is this breakfast or lunch?"

"It doesn't matter."

"???"

"As long as I can eat my fill, that's fine."

“…………”

Yes!

As long as you're full, it doesn't matter whether it's breakfast or dinner.

"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."

"Hmm~"
