It would look beautiful if my sister wore a red string bell, a silver chain, or a jade pendant on her ankle.

I'll give it to my sister myself next time it's her birthday.

Then--

She even had to put it on her sister herself.

A short while later, Shi Yan returned with her small cup. She first tested the water temperature herself, and then helped the girl into her arms.

Xiaxia held the cup in both hands, looking as docile as a little white rabbit.

And... it's just as soft and chewy, making you want to poke and tease it.

"My sister's...cup."

"And my sister just drank it."

"Are you hungry?" Shi Yan looked at the girl, who even seemed a little weak, and couldn't help but reach out and tease her again.

Xiaxia gave a soft hum and then nodded her little head.

The two of them barely ate anything yesterday.

And it wasn't just yesterday.

Since Shi Yan disappeared in Xifang, Xiaxia has been listless and unable to eat or sleep. Her cheerful demeanor yesterday was entirely forced.

Today, their true colors were revealed all at once.

As for the teacher's words.

Although she had been unconscious for two days, Hua Xiangrong had taken good care of her, and she was only a little thirsty.

Xiaxia tried to get out of bed, "I'll go cook for my sister..."

"Never mind." Shi Yan scooped the girl up in his arms. "I'll take you out to eat today."

"By the way, I'll go buy some silk for binding my chest..."

Xiaxia used the last roll of silk to bandage her wounds. Although there was still half a roll left, it didn't seem like enough for her figure.

In case you're sparring with someone and using agility to shift and move... the overly short silk ribbon suddenly comes undone—

The scene was so beautiful that Shi Yan dared not even imagine it; it was like a rocket launching from its capsule.

She'd rather let herself go for another day.

I can just wear something a little looser today.

Anyway, ancient jade can change our understanding.

Unless someone is extremely powerful or already knows the inside story like the Second Elder, there shouldn't be any major problems.

But... before he could finish speaking, Shi Yan realized something was wrong.

What if Xiaxia investigates where those silks went?

Shi Yan didn't notice... in her arms, the girl's eyes suddenly widened, and Xia Xia's little head was almost buried in the cup.

"Yes...it should be changed."

It's over.

The girl's heart was pounding like a war drum, and her older sister discovered it.

My sister must be giving me a warning.

Well--

A mournful cry escaped the girl's throat.

After a quick dressing up, Shi Yan took Xia Xia out.

Unlike before, this time she finally put on the proper airs of the young master of the Shi family.

Those who were just watching the drama unfold yesterday now looked at Shi Yan's right hand, wrapped in "bandages," with a sense of awe.

He truly lives up to his title as the young master.

Even the bandages were made of the finest silk.

I must say, the young master walked with a very proud and imposing air today, and his solid chest muscles gave people a great sense of security.

Teacher's words: MMP!

Did you hear that?! Damn it!

But... just as he stepped out of the Shi family home, Shi Yan saw a familiar figure.

A graceful young woman in a pale yellow dress stood near the entrance of the Shi family's residence, craning her neck as if waiting for someone.

Only—

Her forehead seemed to gleam in the sunlight.

Part 50. How does this woman have the nerve to be so powerful?! [First Update]

Unusually, no maids accompanied her as the girl stood near her master's residence, eagerly awaiting his return.

Ming Zhongqing's figure was gentle and graceful.

A pale yellow cross-collar top was paired with a light yellow high-waisted skirt. Silver-white silk threads depicting the Ming family's Ōichi embroidery were used to embellish the garment.

The contrasting dark blue neckline adds a touch of sophistication to the entire dress. The high-waisted skirt perfectly accentuates the girl's slender figure, which appears delicate due to her frail health.

at the same time--

Beneath her slender, long neck, the girl's delicate collarbone peeks out. It evokes an impulse to reach out and touch it, or even... gently place a hickey on it.

Although in the game, due to the hair loss and receding hairline caused by his innate fortune, Ming Zhongqing's charm value is rated as "unremarkable".

In reality, the girl's features were quite three-dimensional and delicate.

Even the forehead.

Ming Zhongqing's forehead has a slightly concave and narrow temple area, making his face appear small and his forehead lines full. His nose and forehead angles are also beautiful and very upturned.

But... this creates another problem.

Standing in the sunlight, Ming Zhongqing's full forehead seemed to be glowing in Shi Yan's eyes.

But... Ming Zhongqing, who had cultivated a wisp of Yang Flame, always liked to stand in the sunlight.

Shi Yan looked at Ming Zhongqing standing there and suddenly covered her mouth.

We have received rigorous training.

No matter how funny it is, we won't laugh.

Unless... I can't help it.

In fact, Shi Yan is a typical member of the "appearance association" and goes around causing trouble for girls who are "stunningly beautiful" or "fairy-like".

but--

They rarely make fun of other people's appearance.

Except Ming Zhongqing.

I don't know why... every time I think of Ming Zhongqing seeking revenge in the game, and then being defeated by me, I see that wronged and unwilling look on his face.

Shi Yan would always find himself wanting to tease her.

Sometimes, if Ming Zhongqing didn't come to seek revenge for a month, Shi Yan would worry that the guy might have died out there, or that something had happened to him due to the side effects of "heaven being jealous of talent."

For this reason, Ming Zhongqing is one of the few people in the game who has been marked by Shi Yan with his divine sense.

In the scene in Shi Yan's mind—

The defeated girl lay on the ground, gently biting her lips, her head tilted back, her eyes brimming with tears of resentment.

But... her forehead really steals the show.

puff.

Shi Yan chuckled aloud.

Seeing Shi Yan suddenly cover his mouth, Ming Zhongqing was so angry that his shoulders trembled.

"You bastard! You bastard! You bastard!!!"

"As expected, this bastard doesn't deserve my kindness."

"Why don't we just burn her right here?"

"Anyway, she's only at the Qi Refining stage now, so it's not too late for me to make my move."

However, despite his words, Ming Zhongqing showed no intention of actually taking action.

until...

"Pfft." Shi Yan chuckled to himself.

"I guess we should just burn her!"

The air around Ming Zhongqing gradually began to distort, and a wisp of bright white yang energy swirled around his fingertips.

“Sister Zhongqing…” Xiaxia said in a flustered manner.

She reached out to try and stop her sister by twisting Shi Yan's waist, but instead of grabbing any fat, she tickled Shi Yan, making her laugh even louder.

Ming Zhongqing's expression almost completely disappeared.

Because it inherits the favorability rating from the game.

Ming Zhongqing, who should have liked Shi Yan at this stage... or even been a little more interested in him, now has a "we don't see eye to eye" rating.

This left her in a constant state of inner conflict.

As a result... this despicable woman actually made fun of her time and time again.

Ming Zhongqing bit her lip hard and glared at Shi Yan with a wronged expression.

Xiaxia was at a loss for what to do.

My sister...my sister too.
