“Ding-dong~”
The doorbell suddenly rang.
Qi Yun let go of her little sister. Glancing at her cute pajamas, she patted her back and said urgently:
“Hurry back to your room and get changed. He’s here.”
“Oh.” Rubbing her bottom, Qi You very reluctantly returned to her bedroom. She took off her pajamas and, at the same time, carefully removed and hid her underwear.
“Ding-dong.” The doorbell rang again.
Qi Yun got up and walked to the door, peeking through the peephole.
Outside stood a young man in a brown short-sleeved T-shirt, around twenty years old, wearing sunglasses.
Though his face wasn’t clear, the outline of his features gave her a familiar feeling.
Qi Yun was extremely nervous right now.
This was the first time she was seeing Tianxia Wushuang in real life.
Her heart couldn’t help but begin to pound fiercely.
“Ding-dong.” Qin Wushuang pressed the doorbell for the third time. No one had come to answer for so long. Were they not home?
Just as he was about to press the doorbell a fourth time, the door suddenly swung open.
Qi Yun poked her head out, but her eyes didn’t dare to look directly at him.
“Wu… Guild Leader, what brings you here?” Qin Wushuang didn’t mind her form of address. He took off his sunglasses, revealing a faint smile.
“It’s good that you’re okay.”
“You haven’t logged in for days, your phone is off, you don’t reply on Penguin… I thought something had happened to you.”
Qi Yun could hear a trace of reproach in his tone. She gave an awkward smile. “Sorry to make you worry.” Qin Wushuang glanced inside through the crack in the door. “Aren’t you going to invite me in to sit?”
“Oh, oh.” Holding the doorknob, she stepped aside to let Qin Wushuang in.
Entering the living room, Qin Wushuang sat on the sofa and observed the surroundings, nodding slightly in approval.
Though the nest was small, it had everything needed.
Though there were many furnishings, they were spotlessly clean. One could tell the owner of this house cleaned often.
“Sis.”
“Why are you wearing that out here?”
Hearing Qi Yun’s surprised tone, Qin Wushuang couldn’t help but turn around curiously to look.
Qi You walked out wearing a Lolita dress. Her already petite figure looked especially soft, cute, and adorable.
Coupled with the twin ponytails hanging down her back, she seemed like she had just stepped out of a 2D world.
“Huh? Big Brother Wushuang is here?” Qi You waved at him with a full-faced smile, calling out sweetly.
Big… Brother… Wushuang?
Qin Wushuang’s face twitched involuntarily. What was up with this little sister? In the game, she usually wouldn’t even give him a proper glance, but in real life she was this sweet?
“Ahem, I’m here.”
Qi Yun’s delicate brows furrowed slightly. She glared fiercely at Qi You, signaling her not to cause trouble.
The corner of Qi You’s mouth lifted. Her red lips parted slightly as she silently mouthed four words at her: Your choice.
My choice?
When did I choose this?
Qi Yun felt utterly baffled.
Wait, this girl she…
At that moment, she suddenly remembered Qi You’s earlier words. Her pupils contracted, and she sucked in a sharp breath.
Did this damn girl really plan to do that?
Qi Yun tightly knit her brows and shook her head at her.
Qi You was overjoyed, giving an “OK” sign back, then silently said: Remember to reject him.
After saying that, she winked at Qi Yun, then hopped and skipped back into her bedroom.
Watching Qi You’s bedroom door close, Qi Yun sat on the sofa opposite Qin Wushuang, holding her forehead.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing Qi Yun rubbing her temples, Qin Wushuang thought she might be feeling unwell. He got up and sat next to her, wanting to hug her.
Who knew Qi Yun would act as if she’d been shocked, her face turning pale with fright as she hurriedly scooted away to the side.
Qin Wushuang’s warm, spring-like smile instantly froze on his face. His hands hung stiffly in mid-air, neither extending nor withdrawing, creating an awkward scene.
Qi Yun offered a smile in return. “Guild Leader, I’m fine.”
“It’s good if you’re fine.” Qin Wushuang nodded slightly with a half-smile. He hadn’t noticed before, but now he realized Qi Yun’s form of address for him had changed.
From Big Brother Wushuang to Guild Leader.
“Xiaoyun, rumors are just rumors. Don’t believe them so easily.” Qin Wushuang thought Qi Yun had heard some rumor and was sulking with him again.
“Mhm, I know, Guild Leader.”
“You really know?”
“Yes.”
“Then you…”
“Guild Leader.” Qi Yun knew what Qin Wushuang wanted to say and hurriedly interrupted him.
Qin Wushuang looked at her quietly, not in a rush, waiting for her to speak.
Qi Yun clenched her teeth. She wanted to turn and look into Qin Wushuang’s eyes, but she instantly lost her nerve under his bright, piercing gaze, flusteredly averting her eyes.
“Big Brother Wushuang, from now on, let’s just be… be… friends.”
The last three words were forced out through gritted teeth.
Qin Wushuang’s expression changed. Subconsciously still thinking she was joking, he smiled and said, “Sure. Girlfriend is also a type of friend.”
Qi Yun lowered her head, her hands tightly clutching the hem of her skirt on her knees, and explained, “I mean ordinary friends.”
“Heh.” Qin Wushuang gave a cold laugh and asked directly, “Xiaoyun, are you serious?”
“I’m serious.”
“Lift your head and look at me when you answer!” Qin Wushuang roared loudly.
The roar made Qi Yun’s delicate body tremble. She slowly raised her head, but her gaze was still elsewhere, not daring to look at him.
“Why don’t you dare look at me?”
Qi Yun didn’t answer.
“Why don’t you dare look at me? What exactly are you afraid of?”
Qin Wushuang pinched her chin, forcibly turning her face to look at him.
Qi Yun’s eyes were struggling, hesitating. She also wanted to throw caution to the wind for love.
But Xiaoyou she…
The moment she thought of Qi You’s pleading, pitiful appearance, she just couldn’t bring herself to be heartless.
“I’m sorry. Let’s just end it here.” Qi Yun closed her eyes in pain.
Qin Wushuang slowly released his hand.
Recalling everything from the past month, he found it utterly laughable.
“Fine, fine, just perfect. You’re really something, Qi Yun. I, your father, have been hunting eagles all my life, never thought I’d one day have my eye pecked out by an eagle. Very good.” Regarding Qi Yun, Qin Wushuang couldn’t say he liked her that much, but women who made his heart stir were rare, and she was one.
To think of him, Young Master Qin of the Capital, born undefeated. What wealthy young misses, popular internet celebrities, star socialites—none could escape his grasp. He never expected to capsize in a ditch with an ordinary girl.
Fuck his mother, what kind of nonsense is this.
Qin Wushuang stood up. Looking at the girl who had once stirred his heart, a raging fire ignited within him.
If it were any other woman who played him like this, she would definitely pay the price.
But Qi Yun… he couldn’t bring himself to be heartless.
“Qi Yun, I’ll remember…”
Before Qin Wushuang could finish his sentence, suddenly, a Duang sound rang out, followed by a sharp pain at the back of his head.
“Sss~”
Covering her small mouth with her hands, Qi Yun looked in shock at Qi You standing behind him, holding an iron rod, and cried out in a hushed voice, “Do you know what you’re doing?”
Qi You tightly gripped the iron rod, her face fierce.
Anyone who bullies her sister deserves to die.
Even an untouchable rich guy like Tianxia Wushuang was no exception.
