Of course, a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit. Even if you despise your opponent strategically, you must still take the enemy seriously tactically, so it is still necessary to gather intelligence.

Xiao Mu on the side didn't say anything, just sipped his black tea, but his elf-like pointed ears pricked up quietly, and it was obvious that he was also very concerned about this issue.

"I am indeed Xiuhua's student, and my acquaintance with Baili was just an accident."

Yukino didn't hide anything. In just a few words, she recounted the story of how they met.

Actually, there's not much to say. They didn't spend much time together, so calling them friends would be an overstatement. If I had to say, it would be...

More than just a passerby, but not yet a friend?

At least that's the conclusion Metis came to.

The girl, completely relieved, also let down her guard.

No matter how you look at it, the possibility that this Yukinoshita-san could pose a threat to him is extremely small.

Moreover, looking at her icy beauty temperament, she doesn't seem like the type who would take the initiative to attack boys.

Metis’ principle is very simple. As long as you don’t compete with me for your brother, we will be good half-sisters!

"Yukino, can I call you that?"

Yukino?

The second young lady was silent for two seconds. She called someone by their name when they first met. Should we say that she is too extroverted or that she has no sense of boundaries?

But if she refused, it would seem too unkind. After all, she was Baili's sister in name only, and Baili was her savior...

After hesitating for a moment, he nodded slightly.

"You can also just call me Xiao Mo!"

Metis's main feature is that she is outgoing and friendly, and she is generous in showing her kindness. Within a few minutes, she was calling her "Yukino-chan" affectionately and chatting with her about many topics related to girls.

Yukinoshita found it difficult to deal with such a passionate girl.

She is a complete social wimp, and has never had a single close friend since she was a child. If she had to say...should her sister be considered half a close friend?

Although she is outstanding in appearance, boys dare not approach her because of her cold temperament and sharp tongue, and girls mostly keep their distance from her out of subtle envy and jealousy.

It was the first time that the second young lady experienced the feeling of being pestered for a chat.

How should I put it, it's a little weird, but not annoying.

"Yukino-chan is so beautiful. She must have a lot of friends around her, right?" Metis came up to her with great interest and started asking about gossip.

"...No, that's not the case."

The second young lady quietly distanced herself from her. She was not used to being so close to others.

"Huh? Is that so?"

Metis was a little surprised, but she didn't feel disappointed. Instead, her golden pupils sparkled. "In that case, how about letting me be Xiaoxue's first friend? I like Xiaoxue very much!"

What's this strange name for Xiaoxue?

The second young lady was silenced by her attitude of taking advantage of the situation.

She really couldn't handle such a passionate girl.

"Well, anyway, let's exchange contact information first, right?"

Metis was obviously not joking. She took out her cell phone and planned to add her as a friend.

The reason why the little girl is so enthusiastic is actually very simple.

Although she felt that Yukinoshita posed no threat to her, she was still prepared for the worst.

In order to protect yourself from accidents due to misjudgment, you might as well take out another layer of insurance.

At first glance, Xiaoxue is the kind of person who is very serious and old-fashioned. If you become friends with her, and she finds out that you like your brother, given her upright style, she will definitely not do anything like competing with your friend for a man!

What does it mean to have a plan? (Tactical retreat)

Humph, she can eliminate a potential competitor without any effort, she is indeed a genius!

……

As soon as Bai Li came out of the kitchen, he saw three girls in the living room chatting happily.

Well, maybe the phrase “had a great conversation” should be put in quotation marks.

To be more precise, it should be said that it was Metis's one-sided enthusiasm. She was the one who was basically talking throughout the whole process, Xiao Mu occasionally agreed with her, and the second lady was the unlucky listener who was pestered.

Even from a distance, he could clearly see the helplessness and frustration on Yukinoshita's face. She was exhausted both physically and mentally by the proactive Metis.

After all, she is a guest, and it would be bad to let her continue to be harassed by Xiao Mo.

"Lunch is ready. If Yukinoshita-san doesn't mind, why not stay for a quick meal?"

Bai Li finally stepped forward to change the subject and helped her out of the predicament.

"I'll help my brother serve the food!"

As expected, Metis's attention was quickly attracted. She happily pulled Xiaomu to the kitchen, giving Yukinoshita a chance to catch her breath.

The second young lady had an expression that looked like the three big words "saved" were written on her face, and she breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of her heart.

But this look only lasted for a moment, and she quickly returned to her usual cool style, putting one hand on her chest, hesitating for a moment, and then nodded slightly.

"… Sorry to bother you then."

"Nothing to bother you with."

Bai Li smiled at her, "After all, you are Qi Liangliang's master and my friend. Just treat this place as your home."

This should have been an obvious compliment.

But Yukino subconsciously looked away, dazzled by that faint smile.

I have clearly warned myself countless times in my heart that feelings born out of beauty will sooner or later be transferred to someone else because of the appearance of a more beautiful person.

But when facing that face that is far more beautiful than spring flowers and autumn moon, my heart still feels a little itchy, just like a grass leaf pushing away the soil and growing quietly in the sun.

Chapter 254 Yang Nai: I am so stupid

Lunch was once again Baili’s signature Chinese cuisine.

There are three meat dishes, two vegetable dishes and a soup. In order to cater to the guests' tastes, all the dishes are very light.

This was not the first time that Xueno had tasted Baili's cooking. Although the second lady was an expert in cooking herself, she had to admit that the latter's attainments in cooking were enough to serve as her teacher.

“A delicious lunch, thank you for the treat.”

Yukinoshita lowered her head slightly. This girl, as beautiful as the fine snow, was always serious, but now she showed a slightly gentle smile, looking particularly satisfied.

Delicious food can really make people feel good.

"As long as Yukinoshita-san likes it."

Bai Li glanced at her empty bowl and asked, "Do you need some more rice?"

"No need."

The Second Miss shook her head slightly, paused, and then continued, "Actually... Baili-kun, just call me Xueno. After all, you are my sister and I's savior."

It was just an ordinary name, no need to get hung up on it, Baili readily followed suit, "Yukino."

In Japan, calling each other by their first names usually only happens between friends, lovers or family members.

Unfortunately, Yukinoshita never had the first two relationships.

If social power is compared to a majestic pyramid, people like Su Shi and Ain are undoubtedly standing at the top of the pyramid. A casual post can easily get dozens or hundreds of likes, and their popularity is so good that it would make people with social anxiety cry.

As for the Second Young Lady...

She should be in the position of a pyramid floor tile.

I have been single since birth, have zero friends, and am a complete social wimp.

In the past, only her sister and mother would call her "Yukino", and Baili was the first boy of the same age to call her by her name.

Although this was the result of her own efforts, it was still a bit strange.

It was clearly a very familiar name, but when he pronounced it, it seemed to have some kind of magic, making the tips of the girl's ears slightly red, as if someone was leaning over her shoulder and quietly blowing air into them.

She smoothed the hair by her ears imperceptibly, suppressing her chaotic thoughts. Just as she was about to say something else, the cell phone on the table started to vibrate.

elder sister?

Seeing the familiar note on the screen, Xueno inexplicably felt a bad premonition in her heart.

...As it turned out, her premonition was indeed correct.

"Hello, hello, it's been a while since we last met. I miss you so much. It's a rare weekend, Yukino-chan, and I'm here to play with you~"

As soon as the video was connected, a smiling face popped up on the screen. Yukinoshita Haruno waved at her with a happy expression, "Surprised? Unexpected?"

Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."

The second young lady's temples were throbbing slightly and she had a slight headache.

What she can't deal with the most is her sister who acts on impulse and always likes to launch sneak attacks.

It would have been fine on any other day, but today Baili was right beside her, and he happened to see her sister's out-of-touch side, making Yukino feel ashamed of airing a family scandal in public...

"I'm not in the apartment." The second lady tried to get someone to back down.

"Not in the apartment?"

The short-haired beauty on the screen tilted her head. "Looking at it this way, your surroundings do seem a little unfamiliar..."

The place where Yukino lives is an apartment that she found herself and she even participated in the decoration. Yangno is familiar with every brick and tile there, but the background where her sister is now is obviously an unfamiliar living room.

“I can’t understand it, I can’t understand it… … ”

Yukinoshita Haruno suddenly thought of something and said thoughtfully, "Is it at Baili classmate's house?"

The answer is not difficult to guess. Xiao Yukino is obviously a guest at someone's house now, but she has no other friends in Tokyo. The only people she can talk to are herself, her mother, and at most Xiao Jing.

But she had been to Xiaojing's house and it was obviously not decorated like this.

After ruling out all the impossible options, it seems that the only person who can make my sister lower herself and take the initiative to visit him is the unforgettable Bai Lijun?

Yukino lowered her eyelashes and did not answer.
