Side building, Room 603.
Looking at the pink cat-shaped soft bed her big sister had bought for her, Qi You excitedly rolled on it a few times.
“If I could keep sleeping here with Sis forever, how comfortable would that be?”
Hehe.
Thinking this, she laughed stupidly with excitement, hugging the pillow and twisting back and forth.
“Xiao You.”
Hearing Qi Yun’s voice, Qi You immediately sat up and looked at her big sister who had just walked in.
“Sis, you’re back! Come try this bed. It’s super soft and comfy.” Qi You patted the mattress with a smile.
However, Qi Yun looked weighed down with worry, her face full of gloom.
“Sis, what’s wrong?” Qi You noticed something unusual and asked cautiously.
“Xiao You, I have to go back.”
“Go back? Back where?” Qi You was baffled, not catching on.
“To the Magic Capital.”
“Sis, have you lost your mind? We finally got out of that place. Why go back? You miss the old house? Just leave it there. It’s not like it’ll disappear.” Qi Yun shook her head.
“No, it’s not that. Mu Qingxue wants me to go back.”
“What?” Qi You jumped off the bed in fury at those words.
“What does she mean? Didn’t we already settle this? How can she go back on her word now? And Sis, what does Sister Xiaoyan say?”
Qi Yun smiled bitterly and replied, “Sister Xiaoyan was taken hostage by Qin Wushuang’s men.”
Qi You fell silent.
Now she understood why Mu Qingxue wanted her big sister to go back.
Damn it! They had finally escaped that man’s clutches, and now they had to walk right back into the trap.
She was furious.
But what could her anger do? Qi You knew that in Mu Qingxue’s heart, Chen Xiaoyan’s place was far higher than theirs as sisters.
“Sis, Qin Wushuang will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Kidnapping is something he’d actually do. Following him will only end badly.”
Qi Yun gritted her teeth and snapped back, “Then what do you want me to do now? Do you think I have any other choice?”
Qi You was left speechless by her yell. Rage burned inside her, but she was helpless. Her strength was far too weak to be of any use.
All she could do was watch helplessly as her beloved sister fell back into the clutches of that demon.
“AHHH!!!” Qi You grabbed the pillow in fury, hugging it to her chest and treating it like Qin Wushuang, tearing at it with all her might.
“Qin Wushuang, you son of a bitch! I hope you never have a son, you bastard!”
Qi Yun watched her little sister acting so childish and couldn’t help but laugh despite everything. She walked over and hugged her to comfort her.
“It’s okay. I’ll talk to him clearly when I get back. Qin Wushuang isn’t that stubborn.”
“That bastard isn’t stubborn? He freaking kidnapped someone just to get you! And you say he’s not stubborn? Sis, you’re not still holding a candle for him, are you?” Qi You broke free of her embrace and stared at her suspiciously.
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Qi Yun was furious and slapped Qi You.
The attack didn’t hurt, and Qi You didn’t take it seriously. She grabbed her big sister’s hand and said worriedly, “Sis, why don’t we just call the police?”
Qi Yun rolled her eyes at her. “Silly girl, if calling the police actually worked, do you think Sister Xiaoyan or Mu Qingxue wouldn’t have done it already?”
“Then what do we do? Are you really going back?”
“It’s the only choice now.” Qi Yun sighed.
Qi You pouted and immediately hugged Qi Yun around the waist.
“No, I’m not letting you go back. If you absolutely have to go, then I’m coming too. Wherever you go, I go.”
Qi Yun couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Silly girl, he wants me. What would you come for?”
“Hmph! I don’t care. For that bastard, one more woman doesn’t make a difference.”
Qi Yun’s face darkened. She pinched Qi You’s cheek and scolded, “You little brat, are you trying to drive me crazy?”
“Then what do you want me to do? Right now, I’m like a fish, and you’re the water. A fish can’t leave the water; if it does, it’ll die.”
Qi Yun looked at her little sister with complicated eyes. Sometimes she really couldn’t tell if this girl actually liked her, or if years of care had created a terrifying dependence.
Over the years, the two of them had relied on each other to survive. She had been busy taking care of the household and hadn’t paid attention to her little sister’s emotional needs. If she had noticed earlier, maybe they wouldn’t have ended up like this.
“What are we two sisters going to do from now on?” Qi Yun sat on the head of the bed, suddenly feeling lost about the future. With her little sister like this, she didn’t even dare to find a partner.
Abandon her?
She couldn’t bear to.
This girl was dependent on her, but she herself was also used to her presence.
Seeing Qi Yun so heartbroken was harder on Qi You than being scolded or hit. She couldn’t choose, and she couldn’t bear to imagine the pain of losing her big sister in the future.
“Sis.”
Qi You wrapped her arms tightly around Qi Yun’s slender waist from behind and gently kissed the nape of her snow-white neck.
The latter shivered all over, her eyes suddenly stunned.
“I told you I can take care of you. Anything other men can give you, I can give you too.”
“Even a child?”
Qi Yun’s question left Qi You speechless. Seeing the teasing and mocking look in her sister’s eyes, she got angry, opened her mouth, and bit Qi Yun’s jade shoulder lightly.
Leaving a row of shallow, uneven teeth marks.
“You little brat, are you a dog?” Qi Yun frowned and broke free of her grasp, about to get up and grab a tissue to wipe off the drool left on the teeth mark.
Suddenly, Qi You wrapped her arms around her neck and pinned her down on the bed, then climbed on top of Qi Yun.
“What the hell are you doing? Get off!”
Qi Yun’s feigned sternness didn’t scare the audacious Qi You.
“Sis, there can be happiness between girls too. Forget those lousy men, okay?”
Qi You’s gaze grew hazy. She was breathing a little heavily and gently stroked her big sister’s face. An ambiguous atmosphere slowly spread.
In the past, Qi Yun would have gotten angry by now.
But now, she had no reaction at all. She just quietly looked at her.
Qi You didn’t care about that. She buried her face in Qi Yun’s neck and greedily inhaled her unique scent.
Then she lifted her head and said, “These days, I’ve been watching Chong Chong and other female streamers’ broadcasts every day. I’m confident I can make a name for myself in the streaming world. Then I’ll support you, okay? For a lifetime.”
“Sis, do you prefer a bustling city or a quiet countryside?”
“I think the countryside is better. Birds singing, flowers fragrant, quiet, with no one to bother us. We’ll build a little log cabin, get electricity, I’ll stream to make some money, and we’ll grow vegetables, raise flowers, and keep some pets. Don’t you long for that kind of life?”
“I know you’re worried about us not having kids, that we’ll have no one to rely on when we’re old. It’s okay. If it comes to that, we’ll go to an orphanage and adopt a child. A boy and a girl, how about that?”
Qi Yun stared at her little sister with a strange look. Had this girl already thought all of this through long ago?
