[A Jin]: I just woke up and found the group chat buzzing with messages. I took a look... Oh my god, Xiaoyi, did you forget that my senior is also in the group?

[Xiao Yi]: It doesn’t matter. My senior sister hardly ever checks the group chat. I guess she has already been thrown into the group assistant position.

[Lanlan]: My goodness, you mean that young lady came here for our senior sister Bai?

[Xiao Yi]: Almost right. I tell you, you don’t know, when the senior sister rushed over, the look in her eyes was scary. She looked like an iceberg, but at that moment, she seemed to be turning into a yandere.

[A Jin]: Is it that scary?

[Lanlan]: Although, to be honest, I don’t understand your 2D terms.

Qin Xin looked at these things in the group and a hint of hesitation flashed through her mind.

When Qin Xin first heard Xiao Yi talk about it, she didn't care. She had guessed that it was Si Youxue who went to the dormitory with Bai Ningning.

But Xiaoyi said that Si Youxue's behavior after she came in showed that there was an unusual relationship between her and Bai Ningning, which made Qin Xin very confused.

Si Youxue was sent by Qin Yue to investigate Bai Ningning's philandering. As a spy, how could she have any relationship with her target? Is this possible?

And the other party is a straight woman!

[A Jin]: Speaking of which, I discovered a problem... When that girl was already there, why did Senior Bai come to your bedroom to catch... uh, I mean, to find your loli roommate?

[Xiao Yi]: Yes, that’s right, and the forum also said that she had this and that with the president of the 2D club, there are pictures and videos!

[Lanlan]: Oh, is this the second dimension? So scary.

Xiao Yi's words were very convincing, and he almost patted his chest to guarantee it, so it didn't sound like a fabrication. Qin Xue held her phone, listening to the teacher's lecture on the podium, and fell into deep thought.

Could it be that there really is something wrong with Si Youxue?

I'll find a chance to check it out later.

………………

"Well, very good, a good idea," Bai Ningning said happily, "Xuexue is worthy of being my assistant."

This is a sweet little cotton jacket.

Si Youxue curled the corners of her mouth unconsciously, thinking that even if you praise me like this, I won’t be happy... Wait, bah, I’m getting into character again.

The corners of his mouth dropped instantly: "Miss Bai, please call me by my name, we are not that close yet."

"I know, I know," Bai Ningning waved her hand, "Anyway, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Ah."

Bai Ningning turned her gaze back to Loli: "Well, now that we've finished talking about business, Nana, let's go now..."

Xiao Yi, who had been peeking through the crack of the door, became restless and rushed out from the side: "What are you doing? What does it mean?"

"Just, just chat," Bai Ningning shrugged, "If that doesn't work then..."

"Let's go back after we finish talking about business," Xiao Yi said in advance, "We have classes later, so we need to prepare in advance."

As she said this she poked Nana.

Nana woke up from her dream: "Yes, senior sister, you go back first, we have to start studying."

"Okay," Bai Ningning sighed, stood up and called Si Youxue, "Let's go."

The girls left, and the two girls in Dormitory 202 breathed a sigh of relief. In the usual attack of the aircraft carrier, they once again defended the destroyer port.

After leaving the girls' dormitory, Bai Ningning said to Si Youxue, "It's rare to finish the work so smoothly. It's still early. Why don't we go to the milk tea shop? Or the small pavilion will also do."

"I'm sorry, Miss Bai. Just like you said, there are still many things for me to do," Si Youxue refused indifferently, "Now, I'm going to contact Manager Li."

"……All right."

So Bai Ningning returned to the classroom and started another day of slacking off.

Si Youxue did not leave the school and contacted Li Yue by phone. This kind of thing was a trivial matter and could be done easily.

The raid on the port of expulsion ended, and life gradually became dull. Everyone did what they were supposed to do, and life was like the weather in late autumn, with occasional breezes, but it didn't cause much trouble.

Qin Yue had finished her vacation halfway. Although the company had no major projects, there were some small things going on. The biggest impact on Qin Yue was that she could no longer lie in bed all day.

On Friday afternoon, the family of three had dinner at home and welcomed another weekend together.

"How was your school this week?" Qin Yue asked as usual.

"It's OK," Qin Xin replied, "It's just like that."

I had been planning to find a chance to check on Si Youxue, but I didn't expect that I would have to skip classes over the next two days.

"I'm fine too," Bai Ningning ate her dinner without looking up, "everything is fine."

She was slacking off in class anyway, and the teacher didn't dare to scold her. Besides, she and Si Youxue launched the Morning Raid Operation to successfully solve the problems at work.

The only regret was that I didn’t stay in Dormitory 202 a little longer, and after I went out, I couldn’t take Si Youxue to the small pavilion.

"So you don't have any plans for this weekend?" Qin Yue asked her.

Bai Ningning paused for a moment while eating, wondering if playing against Hellux and Ozma on the weekend would be too much of a hassle.

I don’t think so. At most it’s just an hour.

"Theoretically, nothing," she replied. "Do you have any plans?"

Qin Yue didn't reply, but just put the phone in front of her. The screen showed a hot topic in Xicheng.

[Autumn is almost over and winter is coming. In this last period of time, why not prepare some winter supplies? #Cang Hamster Project#, #Peace Eve City#]

"Oh, I've heard of that."

Bai Ningning understood. In the past two days, her deskmate Guan Qian often talked to her about this topic, which was a topic that people should go shopping in the mall. She said that it was the last few days before winter came, so she asked everyone to go shopping, buy some things to store for the winter, and experience the feeling of being a hamster.

"...This is just a trick of the capitalists, to make people spend more money, just like Valentine's Day and the first cup of milk tea in autumn," Bai Ningning said with a cold face, disdainfully, "I have seen through this trick a long time ago."

Qin Xin sighed and thought to herself, Senior Sister Ningning is such a pretty girl, why does she act like a straight man sometimes?

She pulled Bai Ningning's sleeve and whispered, "Xicheng is the Qin family's headquarters. Its business covers all aspects, and they often carry out such projects."

Bai Ningning was slightly stunned: "Oh, that's it."

It's our own business, so that's fine.

Qin Yue's face turned pale, and he made the decision directly: "Tomorrow we will go to the street and visit the mall."

She shouldn't have asked Bai Ningning for her opinion. What nice words could come out of that little cherry mouth?

Chapter 33: It's All Here

The Si family, a family of three, were also having dinner.

"Axue," Si's mother remembered something, "Tomorrow is the weekend, right?"

"Yes, tomorrow is the weekend," Si Youxue said as she ate her rice in small bites, without even looking up, "It's a holiday."

Father Si asked quickly, "How about the invitation home? Have you told her?"

What, what.

Si Youxue was slightly stunned: "Invite guests home?"

"Yes, isn't it the weekend?" Si's father reminded her, "Last week we talked about inviting your current direct supervisor to come home for dinner or something."

It seems that there was such a thing.

Si Youxue's face looked a little bad: "I... forgot to say it."

Mother Si was stunned: "Forgot?"

This is not normal. My daughter rarely forgets things, especially things related to work.

"Yeah, I forgot." Si Youxue thought of an excuse in an instant, "This week's work was very tiring and complicated. I was too busy."

Actually, it’s not a complete lie. Although it seems that I didn’t do anything this week, the psychological struggle is the strongest in recent weeks.

What’s even more terrifying is that Si Youxue has encountered that the most intense psychological struggle is always the next week.

"This, ah, I told you a long time ago," Si's mother couldn't help but sigh, "Don't work so hard. If you are too busy at work, find a way to postpone it. Take care of yourself..."

"Alright, alright, stop talking," Father Si said. "How about this, Ah Xue finally has a day off, how about we go shopping as a family tomorrow? Winter is almost here anyway, and I heard from the neighbors that many people are going to the convenience store to buy things and stock up for the winter."

Mother Si was at a loss: "But we don't lack anything at home, right?"

"Oh, what do you know? We need that atmosphere," Father Si said. "It's mainly to relax, understand? And then again, we won't know if we need anything until we get to the convenience store."

Maybe you'll want to buy it after seeing it for a while.

"What do you think, Xue? Are you going or not?"

Relaxation is good. Given my current mental state, I really need to relax more.

Si Youxue nodded: "Okay."

…………

"It's so lively." Qin Xin couldn't help but sigh.

Although it was the weekend, it was not so lively. The big shopping malls in the city center were packed with people, and some areas specializing in popular products were even overcrowded.

With the development of online shopping in recent years, it is difficult to see such scenes in offline stores. Even if there are, it is only some elderly people who rush to buy promotional discounts.

Qin Xin really felt it was very novel; she had never felt such an atmosphere before.

But Qin Yue was not touched at all, and just said lightly: "It's okay, it's not particularly lively, that's it."

"Sister, have you ever seen this place more lively?" Qin Xin replied subconsciously.

"Of course," Qin Yue said casually, "I came here many times when I was a kid, and each time there were more people than now. It took more than ten minutes to queue up to pay the bill, and sometimes even half an hour."

"Is it true? It's so exaggerated?"

Bai Ningning heard their conversation and agreed, "Yes, there used to be a lot of people here. When I was a kid... I didn't know it when I was a kid, but when Sister Yueyue was a kid, there were always more people here than now, and it took half an hour to line up."

Qin Xin glanced at her silently, wondering what this senior sister was up to. Why was she just leaving things here?

Bai Ningning secretly stuck out her tongue. It was a close call as she almost exposed her identity as a 90s girl.

"Speaking of which," Qin Xin thought of a question, "What exactly should we buy?"

"I don't know," Qin Yue said, "Let's just walk around first."

Bai Ningning suggested an idea: "Why don't we go over there?"

She seemed to be very familiar with the route, and she led the Qin sisters through turns left and right, through the bustling crowd, and soon arrived at the counter area where there were fewer people.

Qin Xin took a closer look and found that this place sold various nutritional powders, including familiar black sesame paste, oatmeal bags, and soy milk powder, which is the favorite of middle-aged and elderly people.

Come to think of it, in winter, the weather is cold, and it is indeed suitable to drink these warm things. Although the Qin sisters don't have this habit, if Senior Sister Ningning likes it, they will drink it together.

"We don't buy these finished products," Bai Ningning said, "we buy mixed powder."

Qin Xin was slightly stunned: "Mixed powder?"

Bai Ningning walked to the front desk and talked to the lady. The lady grabbed various nuts and threw them into the powder grinder. After a buzzing sound, a bag of mixed nutrient powder came out.

Bai Ningning came back with the things and placed them in Qin Yue's hands solemnly:

"Sister Yueyue, this is walnuts, pine nuts, dried dates... and some other things I forgot, but it tastes good and is very nutritious. Remember to drink it a few times a day, and don't miss your afternoon tea."

Qin Yue felt sweet in her heart, thinking that Xiao Lu Cha had been busy for so long just to buy something for herself. She was just like the mixed nut powder in this bag, sweet even without sugar.

Qin Xin was watching from the side, feeling jealous but also a little curious - this was so thoughtful, it wasn't something Senior Sister Ningning would do.

So she asked, "Is it really that good?"

"Yes, it's rich in nutrients, and it nourishes the stomach and spleen and so on," Bai Ningning said seriously, "I forgot the specific functions, but it's definitely good for the body, it can increase endurance, and it may also be good for the kidneys..."

With every word Bai Ningning said, Qin Yue's face turned colder. Qin Xin silently moved a few steps to the side, fearing that her sister would get angry and throw the powder bag on the ground.

But Qin Yue just took a deep breath and silently put the nut nutritional powder into her bag - in case what Bai Ningning said was true and it was really that nutritious, she really had to drink it.

Just then, another family of three arrived nearby.

"Qin Yue, Qin Xin, and...Bai Ningning," Father Si greeted them, "What a coincidence, you are also here to shop in the mall?"

Bai Ningning turned around and only recognized Si Youxue, but it seemed that the other two should be the parents of her caring little assistant.

Si Youxue's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, how come I met her at this place at this time?

There was nothing else to worry about, the key problem was... I hadn't ended that state yet. Although the state could be somewhat controlled, there was no guarantee that some strange thoughts and feelings would pop up in my mind from time to time.

"Well, buy some things," Si Youxue replied calmly, "We have some other things to buy, so we'll leave first."
