But just as Xu Lin was on the verge of exploding with tension, the door to the bedroom nearby opened, and a lively young girl walked out.
“Ji Yun?” Xu Lin was even more confused, what’s going on now?
The time rewinds to a week ago, when Xu Lin had just returned to Linshui that night. After Ji Yun finished chatting with Xu Lin on the sofa.
She cautiously opened the bedroom door, but before she could return to bed, she saw a pair of eyes staring at her intently.
“Sister Chu!?”
“Did you go to the bathroom?”
Chu Qingchan looked at the nervous girl and casually asked, without any intention of questioning.
“Hurry up and get into bed, it’s cold down here.” Chu Qingchan added another sentence, and Ji Yun, who already felt a bit guilty, instantly couldn’t hold it together.
“Um… Sister Chu, I went to find Xu Lin.”
“If you want to find him, then find him. Why tell me?” Chu Qingchan glanced at her and leaned against the wall as if she didn’t care.“Sister, don’t you like Xu Lin?”
“Why would I like him? Even if I did, we’re not boyfriend and girlfriend~”
Chu Qingchan’s cheeks also turned slightly red, although her expression remained the same, her legs slightly curled, toes rubbing against each other.
Intentionally averting her gaze, her eyelashes trembled slightly with nervousness, perfectly displaying the shy appearance of a young girl.
Seeing Chu Qingchan’s small movements and expressions, Ji Yun suddenly felt her heart melt a bit.
What is this, she’s just… too cute!
Ji Yun actually feels that she already has enough feminine charm, but now with such a beauty… she suddenly feels completely inferior!
“We’re not really boyfriend and girlfriend, you don’t need to be jealous.”
“I’m not jealous of him!”
Chu Qingchan turned her head slightly, looking very serious, but her puffed-up cheeks made Ji Yun find her even cuter.
Am I being influenced by Xu Lin?! No, no, the other party insisted that I’m her love rival, huh?
But Ji Yun really didn’t want to compete with this sister, although they hadn’t known each other for long, the other girl was really gentle, kind, and cute.
She didn’t have the demeanor of a rich girl or a big star, but rather seemed like a pure-hearted girl.
She was telling the truth; Ji Yun couldn’t bring herself to act, nor could she be heartless. But to be honest, if she were in Xu Lin’s position, she would definitely choose Chu Qingchan.
After pondering, she sighed and climbed onto the bed, wrapping her arms around Chu Qingchan’s waist, startling her!
“What are you doing?”
Chu Qingchan was startled, but Ji Yun, acting like a child, snuggled up to her affectionately, leaving her a little confused.
“Sister, you said you like Xu Lin, I also like Xu Lin, what kind of relationship are we?”
“What do you mean…?” Chu Qingchan was also momentarily puzzled.
Indeed, it’s true that she likes Xu Lin, but if the other party also likes Xu Lin, what should she say they are?
We are rivals! Are we going to compete? Actually, to be honest, Xu Lin doesn’t have a girlfriend right now, so they are on equal footing.
“That’s what I think, Sister Chu… Do you think Xu Lin is a bit of a playboy?”
“Well, I don’t think Xu Lin is a playboy…” Besides her sister, she hadn’t seen anyone with any special feelings towards Xu Lin, although the girl in front of her, Ji Yun, might count.
But she quite liked Ji Yun, just like when she liked Liu Qinnuan before. She is not immune to cute girls.
And Ji Yun was different from the others, she could feel the girl’s complete purity, even from their first meeting.
She couldn’t muster much competitive spirit, or rather, from the beginning, she had never competed with anyone.
Whether it was with Chu Fengyi when she was a child, or in the entertainment industry with others, she seemed to be naturally averse to comparing herself with others.
Just do what she wanted to do, that’s all. So when Ji Yun said this, she also realized for the first time that she had many competitors…?
Ji Yun also smiled helplessly, then grabbed Chu Qingchan’s hand and became serious.
“Sister Chu, I think everyone who came today is our competitor, and there may even be others!”
“Huh? How is that possible, around Xu Lin… there aren’t many… beautiful girls.”
She hadn’t finished speaking when the image of her own sister, Chu Fengyi, came to her mind, and then there was yesterday’s teacher Su, as well as the appearance of Liu Qinnuan and Ms. Ye.
Liu Qinnuan’s motives in tempting Xu Lin must be calculated! And that Ms. Ye, sending a computer and letting her daughter play with Xu Lin, seems suspicious.
He even said that the senior Bai who Xu Lin went to help was just a senior, right? But with such thoughtful help, who knows what’s going on?
Initially, everything seemed clear, but now my head is spinning. I thought I had no rivals and believed Xu Lin couldn’t escape my grasp.
On my sister’s side, Father would naturally suppress her. And since I’m not inheriting the family, there’s room for relaxation in many aspects.
I used to think Chu Fengyi’s arguments were weak. Even if she won, it would still be a victory for the family. But now I suddenly feel a rising sense of crisis!
“But… Ji Yun, I feel like you’re my biggest enemy, not anyone else!”
“Indeed, but Sister Chu, I don’t want to be your opponent.”
“What do you mean?”
“What I mean is, we should unite!”
“Unite?”
“Yes, I think we should prevent Xu Lin from being fickle. We should join forces and let him choose between us in the end.”
“If he wants to choose someone, let him choose. Why should I…”
Chu Qingchan still felt uneasy about forming an alliance, feeling it’s somewhat strange, like vying for favor in a harem!
“Okay then, but we should agree, regardless of whom Xu Lin chooses in the end, whether it’s us or someone else, let’s wish him well.”
Ji Yun smiled gently towards the direction outside the door, her eyes filled with tenderness. For her, both hers and Xu Lin’s lives were intertwined.
Just like what’s said in a certain chicken soup, loving someone isn’t about possessing them, but about making them happy!
In the next moment, Ji Yun felt two arms reaching around her shoulders from behind, and a soft warmth enveloped her.
“Sister Chu?”
“You silly girl, love is selfish, you have to fight for it yourself. Why bother with wishing or not wishing? If you can get it for yourself, why give it to someone else.”
“But Sister Chu, we’re competing for the same person. I’m just a human being.” Ji Yun felt that Chu Qingchan was a little too arrogant, so she actually started to comfort her.
“No, we’re on the same side now.”
“What do you mean?”
“I agree with your idea, from now on, we’re allies.”
“Really?”
“Of course, but if Xu Lin knew about it, wouldn’t he be unhappy?”
Chu Qingchan was also a little worried, thinking of the boy who held an umbrella for her in the rain that day, she didn’t want him to be saddened if he found out.
“No, he will be more than happy!”
“How come?”
“Sister Chu, I can say that maybe Xu Lin likes you a bit more. Although I haven’t known him for long, I feel like I understand him quite well.”
“But what can we do if we form an alliance?”
Even though she agreed impulsively just now, but Chu Qingchan also didn’t know what the so-called alliance would accomplish.
“I’m not sure either. It was just a sudden idea.”
Jì Yún also smiled awkwardly. In fact, her intention was simply to avoid being considered a rival with her big sister Chu.
“Well, let’s lie down, chat, and think about it!”
After saying that, Jì Yún was directly pulled down onto the bed by Chu Qingchan, who hugged her tightly.
“I still remember the last time I hugged someone like this, it was little Chu Fengyi. Back then, she was still a timid little kid, following behind me.”
“Miss Chu Fengyi… did she also had moments like that?”
Ji Yun couldn’t quite imagine that the girl with the golden twin ponytails, who seemed as powerful as pulling up a mountain and as imposing as covering the world with her aura, could actually have a cute and lovely side.
“Of course, I still have some photos on my phone, want to see?”
“Mm!”
The two girls snuggled under the covers and began looking at childhood photos of Chu Qingchan and Chu Fengyi, with gentle laughter and fond memories filling the air.
Occasionally, playful giggles could be heard, and it was unknown how much time had passed before the two beautiful ladies finally fell into a peaceful slumber.
