Ark Heroine Development Plan

But she really had no way to deal with this girl who was as hard as a rock. She didn't want to use force, but she was too lazy to put in much effort. It was obvious that the problem could be easily solved with a little cooperation from the other party, but the stalemate lasted for so long.

Nian pointed at Chen and said, "Old Dragon Head asked me to solve her problem, which means she really has a problem. What I asked before was just to confirm her specific situation. Isn't it clear to me whether she has a problem or not? Is there anything in the land of Yan Country that Old Dragon Head doesn't know?"

Guan Yueli acted very relaxed: "I think there is really nothing wrong with her, right, Xiao Chen?"

Chen didn't expect Guan Yueli to speak up for him, and replied subtly, "Hmm..."

Nian stared at Chen for a long time, until Chen felt a little uncomfortable. Then he looked away and muttered, "There really isn't any problem at the moment, but that guy is hard to guard against. We can't just let this go."

"If Miss Nian insists, I will cooperate." Chen Laoshi said honestly.

"If you really cooperated, there wouldn't be so much trouble." Nian waved his hand, "Forget it, I have to rush to the next scene. I caught a tentacle that guy hid. I'm going first."

Chen watched Nian leave in a hurry, then turned to ask Guan Yueli, "Has she always been so active?"

"You're overthinking it." Guan Yueli chuckled. "She simply wants to finish her work and eat hot pot as soon as possible. The same goes for you. If she doesn't solve your problem, she won't get any vacation time."

"His style is really similar to yours..." Chen has become accustomed to complaining about Guan Yueli.

"That's different." Guan Yueli shook his finger, "If I want to eat hot pot, I will definitely not go to work."

Chen, who was sitting cross-legged, held his chin with one hand: "Should I praise you?"

Guan Yueli raised an eyebrow: "You seem to be a lot more arrogant, Xiao Chen."

"Thanks to someone." Chen stretched, "My thoughts have become much clearer."

"Really? Then why are you so reluctant to tell the truth when it comes to matters of life and death?"

Chen's face froze.

What should she say? That she dreams of Guan Yueli every night? And that the contents of her dreams are getting stranger and stranger?

Chen was certain that as soon as she said this, the woman who claimed to be young would definitely tell Guan Yueli that night, and then Guan Yueli would use a hundred ways to mock and tease her the next day, and would keep teasing her for at least a whole month.

Who can bear this?

But the main thing is that Chen really doesn't feel that his life is threatened in any way.

It's not that she doesn't believe Nian's judgment. Anyone who can have such close contact with Guan Yueli cannot be an ordinary person. In addition, Guan Yueli also told her about the "Old Dragon Head". No matter how self-centered Chen is, he can't be stupid enough to question the judgment of Dayan Longqi.

But the problem was, the actual feedback was that she had no problems at all. Although she dreamed of Guan Yueli every night, her sleep quality was good and her mind was not disturbed at all. The Guan Yueli in her dreams did not seem imaginary, but rather too real...

You said you eat well, drink well, and are full of energy every day, and you don't look like you have any hidden illness. But the doctor insisted that you have cancer, and that you'd die suddenly within a few days. No one would believe it. I can only assume... there might be some misunderstanding.

That's why Chen was unwilling to tell the truth. After all, if her life was really threatened, she would definitely tell everything.

Guan Yueli looked at Chen's constantly changing expression and couldn't help laughing. She sat down, moved closer to Chen, and asked, "If I don't tell Nian, can Xiao Chen tell me?"

"You're dreaming..."

Chen shuddered at the breath of Guan Yueli, and subconsciously supported himself on the tatami with his hands, trying to move away, but in the end he did not move.

And at this moment——

"Sister, it's already past six o'clock, why haven't you come back to eat yet..."

Chen turned his head and looked at Xingxiong with a slightly confused look.

She couldn't quite see some of the things in her friend's eyes.

They were both speechless.

Chapter 127 - Conversation with Brothers

"Xiaoxing? Why are you here?"

Guan Yueli spoke carelessly, as if not noticing the strange atmosphere: "I'm just about to go back."

"...Yeah." Xingxiong nodded gently, "What are Sister and Xiaochen doing here?"

Her voice was calm when she asked the question, but Mr. Chen had an inexplicable sense of guilt.

Guan Yueli answered without thinking: "Because Xiao Chen has some problems to deal with, but I'm not here for this. I just came to see her on the way."

"Problem?" Xingxiong frowned slightly, "Xiao Chen, you——"

"No, I'm fine, really." Chen replied quickly.

She didn't want to continue this topic. She wasn't sure that Guan Yueli wouldn't ask questions. It was embarrassing enough to expose this matter in front of Guan Yueli. Now if it was exposed in front of the two sisters, the scene would definitely be so awkward that Chen wouldn't be able to work with Xingxiong.

Guan Yueli stood up and walked out of the house leisurely. She put on her wooden clogs and with a few "clicks", she stood behind Xingxiong with her arms around her neck.

"Why are you urging me to go back for dinner today?"

The woman smiled and rubbed her face against her sister's twice: "Miss me?"

"Because my sister said she would meet me in the evening..."

The little emotion in Xingxiong's heart suddenly disappeared. She reached out and held Guan Yueli's face, and replied softly:

"Sister would never lie to me."

"Then why are you so anxious?" Guan Yueli gently touched Xingxiong's forehead and said in a dissatisfied tone, "Don't you think I will lie to you? Tell the truth!"

Xingxiong was silent for a while, then laughed generously:

"Yeah, I miss my sister."

Guan Yueli nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, honest children are liked by others. Let's go home and have dinner now - Xiao Chen, I'm going back first."

"...Huh? Well, see you tomorrow, Guanyue."

Chen looked at Xingxiong, who had a peaceful and happy smile, and Guanyueli, who looked relaxed and happy, and answered absentmindedly.

Xingxiong and Guanyue have such a good relationship...

She thought subconsciously.

The word "sister" is very distant to her, so distant that it makes her heart ache.

There is no doubt that Xingxiong loves Guanyue deeply, and Guanyue also loves Xingxiong. This is a beautiful sisterly love that anyone who sees it will sigh at its beauty, but...

But Mr. Chen felt that something was not right.

Especially at the beginning, the look in Xingxiong's eyes when he saw himself and Guanyueli sitting side by side, almost touching each other.

"Xiao Chen."

Just when Chen was lost in thought, Xingxiong suddenly called her.

Before the latter could react, Xingxiong continued:

"Why don't you just come to our house for dinner?"

Chen was stunned for a long time before he reacted and shook his head: "No need, I'll go back and solve it myself, and I won't cause you any trouble."

"It's a bother? It's not a bother." Guan Yueli said heartlessly, "It's just an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks. Xiao Chen, you don't eat much. Xiao Xing will be upset if you act so formally. You clearly stayed to eat last time, right?"

Chen didn't look at Guan Yueli, but at Xingxiong.

My friend just smiled demurely: "Sister, you are right."

After hesitating for a long time, Chen finally nodded slowly.

"Then I would rather obey your orders than be respectful."

……

Take eating for example. Sometimes, eating is actually a trivial matter.

Some words and some things require a stable and comfortable environment, a comfortable and relaxed state to be said, or they are easier to confide after a few bottles of wine and everyone's mind is a little confused.

However, Xingxiong and Chen did not drink. The woman with a face of a peerless beauty who ate with the aura of a peerless bandit drank heartily. She was so happy that she said she would go to the street to do some post-meal digestion exercises after the meal.

Although he promised solemnly that he would come back to sleep, Chen didn't quite believe it.

Then, Guan Yueli really left Chen and Xingxiong at home and went out for a walk.

But after Guan Yueli left, the atmosphere in the living room started to become strange again.

Chen didn't know whether it was him or Xingxiong who was wrong, or whether it was both of them who were wrong. In short, the current atmosphere was not the same as when they usually got along.

Women are very sensitive about this kind of thing.

"Let me help you... clean up."

Chen couldn't stand this strange silence, so she stood up and tried to find something to do to break the awkwardness.

"..."

Xingxiong was silent for a moment, then smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, leave it there, I'll wash it later."

Chen, who had just picked up the bowl and chopsticks, didn't know whether to put them down or not, and stood there awkwardly.

Xingxiong couldn't help but laugh out loud: "What are you standing there for? Did you eat something and it got stuck in your brain?"

The teasing tone made Chen relax immediately. This was the Xingxiong she knew, so cool, direct and generous.

Putting down his bowl and chopsticks, Chen couldn't help but complain: "Who told you to be so weird just now?"

"Strange, me?" Xingxiong pointed at himself in confusion.

"…You don't feel anything?"

"Well... I can't say I don't feel anything. I kind of know what you're talking about."

Xingxiong smiled and said, "Let's go to the balcony and talk."

She picked up the bottle of wine and walked towards the balcony, and Chen Ziran followed quickly.

The night view of Longmen is extremely beautiful. Of course, this is limited to the upper city area. The more prosperous the area, the more beautiful it is.

Xingxiong was hunched over, his elbows resting on the railing, a lit cigarette between his fingertips.

"Want one?" She tilted her head and looked at Chen.

Chen shook his head.

"You have to drink some of that wine with me." Xingxiong shook the bottle.

Chen's expression was a little subtle: "Why didn't you drink it just now?"

The emerald-haired woman shook her head and slowly exhaled a light mist:

"Different."

Chen looked at her profile and nodded.

"Okay, wait until you finish your cigarette. I don't want to touch a bottle of wine that smells of cigarette smoke."

Xingxiong laughed and scolded, "You're just being hypocritical."

Chen stared at the dazzling Longmen Night Market in silence for a while, then quickly lowered her eyes, no longer looking at the beautiful scenery of bright lights. She turned around, leaned against the railing, and asked with her head tilted:

"It seems like you're never like this when you're with Guanyue."

Xingxiong touched his nose and said, "Did you find out?"

"Anyone can tell." Chen observed Xingxiong's expression. "Are you afraid of her?"

"That's definitely not the case."

"Then why are you pretending to be a virtuous and obedient girl in front of her... Of course, I'm not saying that Xingxiong is not virtuous, it's just..."

Chen took a moment to organize his words: "It's just that, um... it doesn't really suit your personality."

When Xingxiong was working, you could see a thousand good qualities in her, the most obvious being her comforting personality, generous without being vulgar, straightforward without being foolish. But despite this… or perhaps because of this, it was difficult to find any feminine qualities in her besides her appearance and figure.

But when you are with Guan Yueli, you can't find any other characteristics of Xingxiong besides femininity.

Gentle, quiet, housekeeping, well-behaved... She is simply the epitome of the ideal woman that the East Country advocates!

If Xingxiong wasn't afraid of Guan Yueli, why would she do this? Based on Chen's understanding of Guan Yueli, she would definitely not want her sister to suppress her nature to please her.

Xingxiong flicked the ash from his cigarette and replied in a relaxed tone, "I'm used to it."

"...Used to it?" Chen was puzzled. "How can you get used to this?"

Xingxiong raised his eyebrows: "Then do you want to listen, Xiaochen."
