Oh no, the aloof school beauty has been reborn too!

The deadline for leaving school, as stipulated by the school, is drawing ever closer.

After spending a few more days snuggling up with Shen Qingyi, Lu Xing finally had to face a cruel reality...

He should pack his bags and go home.

Lu Xing folded the last few clothes in the wardrobe and stuffed them into his suitcase.

She then packed the charger, earphones, and some small items from the table into her bag.

The corners of the dormitory that were once full of life gradually became empty.

Lu Xing stood there for a while, a subtle feeling rising in his heart.

The first semester is over...

From arriving at school with my luggage at the beginning of the semester to meeting Shen Qingyi for the first time.

Time flies.

Lu Xing looked down at the suitcase beside him and sighed softly.

More than the感慨 (feelings of emotion) about the end of the semester, he felt a deep sense of reluctance to leave.

When winter vacation arrived, he and Shen Qingyi had to be separated temporarily.

Thinking of this, Lu Xing looked down at his phone.

The chat window was empty; Shen Qingyi was probably busy packing her luggage.

Lu Xing raised his head and looked out the window.

Come to think of it, I promised Lu Ningning that I would bring her some snacks when I went home.

Putting aside other aspects, my younger sister is at least "well-behaved" and doesn't cause me much trouble.

I don't like going out and messing around, and I don't associate with random people.

After school, she usually stays at home reading various novels and comics, which almost eliminates the possibility of developing into a "spiritual girl" from the very beginning.

However, correspondingly, she also has a very fatal flaw...

Gluttonous, extremely gluttonous.

When they were kids, Lu Xing was snatched a bag of potato chips and she held a grudge against him for a whole month.

For that entire month, Lu Ningning looked at him every day as if he were her enemy.

Even when eating, she would move her bowl further away from Lu Xing...

Lu Xing remembers this vividly.

……

The school gave the sixth day of the leave period.

Lu Xing and Shen Qingyi left the school gate together and went to the nearby commercial street.

The winter wind was a bit chilly, and the girl was wearing a down jacket today.

Her soft hair was blown by the wind, making her look clean and beautiful.

"Are you buying snacks for Ningning today?"

"Um."

Lu Xing nodded.

"I promised her when school started."

Shen Qingyi blinked.

"Your brother is quite trustworthy."

"Of course."

Lu Xing said in a very serious tone:

"My position at home is already precarious. If I break my promise again, I might be treated worse than a dog."

Shen Qingyi chuckled softly.

"It's not that exaggerated."

Lu Xing paused for a moment, then added:

"And if she enjoys the meal, she might even help me cover for her?"

Shen Qingyi turned her head to look at him.

"What kind of cover?"

Lu Xing coughed and looked straight ahead.

"For example, when we video chat, she can help me deal with my mom."

Shen Qingyi's ears turned slightly red, and she hummed softly:

"Who wants to video chat with you?"

Lu Xing nodded.

"Then I'll message you every day during winter break, and I'll cry if you don't reply."

Shen Qingyi smiled and glanced at him sideways.

"Want me to see you cry?"

Lu Xing immediately put on a look of utter grief.

Shen Qingyi couldn't help but raise her hand and gently pat his arm.

"Childish ghost."

The two walked into the commercial street and finally stopped in front of a snack shop.

The store isn't particularly large, but it's brightly decorated.

As soon as the glass door was pushed open, a wave of warmth rushed out.

The shelves were lined with a dazzling array of snacks.

Potato chips, spicy strips, biscuits, dried meat, jelly, nuts, candy...

The various packaging options are so colorful and dazzling that they can be overwhelming.

Lu Xing stood at the door for two seconds in silence.

Buying snacks... seems to be an art in itself?

Although Lu Ningning eats everything, it doesn't mean she likes to eat everything.

Lu Xing picked up a shopping basket and, relying on his understanding of his sister, began to pick and choose in front of the shelves.

He picked up a bag of seaweed-flavored potato chips.

"I think she ate this when she was little..."

Shen Qingyi glanced at it and shook her head:

"Ningning doesn't really like seaweed flavor; she probably prefers tomato flavor."

Lu Xing made a pause.

Shen Qingyi casually grabbed a tomato-flavored bag and put it in her shopping basket.

"And this brand of cookies, she probably likes chocolate-filled ones, not matcha ones."

Watching her practiced movements, Lu Xing couldn't help but complain:

"How do you know more than I, as your older brother, do...?"

Shen Qingyi coughed lightly, her eyes darting around.

"I've talked to her before."

Lu Xing was silent for two seconds, then suddenly smiled.

"You... seem to care quite a bit about my sister?"

Shen Qingyi's ears turned slightly red, and she calmly put another bag of gummy candies into the basket.

"After all, she's your sister."

Lu Xing looked at the snacks he had chosen in the shopping basket, and the corners of his mouth slowly turned up.

However, he quickly picked up the bag of seaweed chips again.

Shen Qingyi was stunned for a moment.

"I just said Ningning doesn't like this taste..."

Lu Xing firmly put the potato chips into the shopping basket.

"This one will do!"

Shen Qingyi: "...?"

She was silent for a few seconds before finally realizing what was happening.

"Did you deliberately buy food she doesn't like?"

Lu Xing looked completely calm.

"I'm helping her broaden her tastes."

Shen Qingyi couldn't help but laugh.

"How could you be so mean?"

She smiled as she put the bag of potato chips back on the shelf.

Lu Xing watched her actions and sighed with regret.

"Sigh, Ningning."

"You should be grateful; it was your sister-in-law who saved your life..."

Shen Qingyi's hand froze.

The next second, she turned her head and glared at him, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"What are you yelling about!"

Lu Xing immediately began to play dumb.

"Huh? Did I call you the wrong name?"

Shen Qingyi was a little embarrassed and annoyed, so she stepped forward and patted him.

"You still dare to talk back!"

Lu Xing chuckled and casually grabbed a few bags of snacks.

"Then I won't say anything."

Finally, the two picked out some beef jerky, small cakes, and jelly.

Lu Xingben wanted to take a few more spicy snacks with fancy packaging, but Shen Qingyi stopped him in time.

"This is too spicy. Ningning might get a stomachache if she eats it."

After buying the snacks, the two went to the cashier to pay.

The shop assistant packed several large bags of snacks, which Lu Xing carried in his hands.

Shen Qingyi tried to help carry a bag, but he dodged her by stepping aside.

"What are you taking?"

"I can take the lighter one."

"You just need to hold my hand."

Shen Qingyi looked up and smiled at him.

Lu Xing also felt that the words were too natural, but he still casually reached out his hand.

Shen Qingyi's lips slowly curved into a smile as she placed her small hand in his palm.

"Okay~"

"Then I'll reluctantly take on the responsibility."

The two pushed open the door of the snack shop and stepped out, a cold wind blowing in their faces.

Lu Xing subconsciously tightened his grip on the girl's hand.

He exhaled a puff of white breath, looked at the people coming and going on the commercial street, and suddenly felt a sense of emotion.

"My first semester of university is over just like that."

"It feels like... the start of school was just yesterday."

Looking at his earnest and sentimental expression, Shen Qingyi smiled and teased him:

"Why do you suddenly sound so old-fashioned?"

Lu Xing also said with a smile:

"There's nothing we can do, a semester has gone by so quickly."

As he spoke, he deliberately sighed.

I'm so sad that I won't see you for more than a month.

Shen Qingyi held Lu Xing's hand and scratched his palm with her fingertips.

"What's wrong with that?"

Her voice was soft, yet full of earnestness.

"after……"

"We still have a very, very long time to spend together."

Lu Xing was taken aback.

Then he laughed.

That's true.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Just then, familiar music suddenly started playing from the milk tea shop not far away.

"You love me~ I love you~"

Lu Xing and Shen Qingyi were drawn to his attention almost simultaneously.

Not far away, in front of a milk tea shop, two Snow King dolls were clumsily swaying back and forth to music.

A large, white head, and a red cloak.

One on the left and one on the right, neatly arranged.

Unlike last time, this time there wasn't one Snow King, but two.

Shen Qingyi's eyes lit up instantly when she saw this.

She instinctively covered her mouth with her hand, her tone filled with barely concealed surprise.

"Wow, there are two Snow Kings this time!"

The tragic scene from last time instantly flashed through Lu Xing's mind.

Thinking of this, his shoulders trembled.

Shen Qingyi immediately looked at him with keen insight.

"What are you laughing at?"

Lu Xing suppressed a laugh and turned his head to look elsewhere.

"I wasn't laughing at anything."

Shen Qingyi narrowed her eyes.

Are you thinking about what happened last time?

"No, what about last time?"

"You have."

"No, there really isn't..."

There was a two-second silence.

Lu Xing finally couldn't hold back his laughter and asked quietly:

"So, are you going to pinch both noses to pieces this time?"

Shen Qingyi: "..."

The smile on her face slowly disappeared.

The next second, Lu Xing felt a familiar pain in his waist.

"Ouch! That hurts! Stop pinching it..."
