Qiao Meina tilted her head, leaned in close, her red lips slightly parted, and her teeth barely visible. She whispered, "Chu Qingning, oh Chu Qingning, you usually shout 'all men are big pig trotters, I don't care about them,' but now when a 'big pig trotter' brushes your ear, why are you so shy? What's going on~ are you moved?"
Chu Qingning rolled her eyes. "What are you saying? We are pure siblings, don't make wild guesses."
Qiao Meina snorted. "You, you're soft all over, but this little cherry mouth of yours is as hard as can be."
"What do you mean, 'hard'?" Lin Can, curious, leaned in to eavesdrop.
Tch~
Qiao Meina laughed. "Girls have little secrets, you can't listen in. Ayi, give Lin Can one of your snacks, let him taste the most delicious thing in the world, hehe~"
"Alright, here you go. Lin Can, try our Western yogurt lumps, they're super delicious."
Ayi Re handed Lin Can a piece of yogurt lump.
"I've heard of this but never tasted it. I'll give it a try."
Lin Can put the yogurt lump into his mouth and chewed.
Ayi Re eagerly asked, "Is it delicious?"
Lin Can gave a thumbs up. "It's good."
Chu Qingning was surprised. "Ah Can, you like this?"
"You guys don't like it, but Lin Can does." Ayi Re patted Lin Can's shoulder. "Lin Can, since you like yogurt lumps, you're now my good friend."
As she said this, she shot a 'disdainful' glance at the other three girls.
Chu Qingning and the others just smiled. They were often fed yogurt lumps by Ayi Re, but they could never get used to them. The only time they managed to finish them was when they first entered college. They were roommates, and Ayi Re took out her snacks — yogurt lumps — and shared them with her new roommates.
At that time, it was their first meeting, and the three girls were too shy to say how disgusting they were, so they forced themselves to eat them all.
"Lin Can, since you like it, I'll give you more."
Ayi Re was very excited to find someone who shared the same taste, so she shoved more yogurt lumps into Lin Can's hands.
"Good friends share food. If you don't have enough, just tell me, I'll fill you up."
Ayi Re was very generous.
Lin Can: "Okay."
Ding~
The elevator arrived.
The front desk lady took everyone on a tour of the presidential suite.
"This presidential suite is about 350 square meters, pretty large. It's equipped with all kinds of facilities, very luxurious..."
The front desk lady continued to introduce the room's layout and services, while the four girls followed to the master bedroom.
While she wasn't paying attention, Lin Can subtly tilted his head and went "ugh~," spitting out the yogurt lump he had in his mouth.
Yogurt lumps had a strong smell, like chewing on rubber tires. Lin Can had been wanting to spit it out for a while, but when he saw Ayi Re's hopeful eyes earlier, he didn't want to say it was disgusting.
"This presidential suite isn't bad, Lin Can, you..."
Ayi Re turned around to look at her 'good friend,' but saw him secretly spitting out the yogurt lump and rinsing his mouth with water.
Ayi Re was devastated.
Her heart hurt so much.
"Lin Can, you big liar, ah!!!!"
She went wild.
"Pfft—"
Lin Can sprayed a mouthful of water.
Caught red-handed.
"I can't stop laughing."
"Ah Can, you're going to make Ayi Re furious."
"Lin Can, you're so funny, hahaha..."
The three girls laughed loudly.
"They're usually so silly," Chu Qingning said with an embarrassed smile. She really wanted to go up and kick them a couple of times. It's fine to act crazy privately, but Lin Can is here, why are they acting like that?
Why can't they just act like goddesses? Why bring out their crazy side instead?
The cold goddess persona is a setup, something to show to outsiders.
Because Chu Qingning was his sister, it acted like a shortcut, helping Lin Can quickly transition through the awkward phase with the three girls. Now, he had become an outsider to their group of close friends, and that was when they revealed their most authentic selves.
"Your friends are quite lively. Let's go, let's check out the master bedroom."
Lin Can smoothly took Chu Qingning's little hand and walked towards the master bedroom.
Her little hand was soft and smooth, like it had been coated in S0D honey.
"Why are you holding my hand?"
"Isn't it normal for a brother to hold his sister's hand?"
"…"
Chu Qingning admired this little brother of hers. He had really figured out how to handle her. Every time there was physical contact, he would say "Qingning Jie" (sister Qingning) with a smile.
Sister, here I come?
Wait~
Yes, Chu Qingning realized that was exactly what Lin Can meant.
He was really going to drive her crazy with that "Qingning Jie" every time.
Lin Can pulled Chu Qingning to the master bedroom, and with his big hand, he slowly tried to slip between her fingers. Chu Qingning let out a slight laugh, holding her fingers tightly together, not letting him slip in, her ten fingers interlocked.
"Stinky little brother~ childish."
Chu Qingning whispered "scolded" him and then relaxed her fingers, allowing him to slip in!
