The beautiful midday hours arrived once again.
Yu Xueqin finished playing computer games and logged off early, then picked up her phone.
She sent a message to the little one she had cuddled with to sleep yesterday.
She thought the other person would agree obediently as usual, but instead, she received this reply.
[Idiot]: Tch, what’s there to be afraid of? I’m not scared.
She very decisively rejected her request to be a hugging pillow.
Yu Xueqin laughed when she saw the message.
Her slender fingers pressed the keyboard letters, ready to say something.
(ps: The QQ nicknames are different on each other’s lists)
[Idiot]: If you have the guts, come at me. Maybe you can’t even handle me.
But then another fierce message came from the other side.
The tone was full of confidence and contempt toward her.
“Hmm? Heh.”
The voluptuous girl paused in front of her computer desk for a second, subconsciously lowering her head to look at her hand.
“What did this girl do today, her wings are so stiff.”
“But that’s fine too.”
Speaking nonsense comes with a price.
Yu Xueqin tapped on her phone, sending out her final threatening words before slowly standing up.
She had to go make some preparations first.
Trim her nails.

“Sunday is so crowded, ugh.”
Su Xiaoxiao walked to the entrance of the market, looking at the waves of people flooding in, feeling a bit scared and anxious.
“Eh?”
In the noisy, dim environment, she suddenly spotted a familiar back.
Not much contact, but she still remembered who it was.
Yi Ting, one of Xiaoyun’s good friends.
She often saw them eating together at noon.
Right now, she was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and skirt, holding a bag just like herself.
“Yi Ting, you’re here too.”
After spending more time with the girls recently, Su Xiaoxiao had become bolder.
She directly followed and patted the girl’s fragrant shoulder.
“Oh, Xiaoxiao.”
The other girl was surprised at first, then stopped.
“I came out at noon to help my parents buy ingredients for lunch. I forgot to buy them earlier.”
“I see. You’re so hardworking.”
“It’s nothing. I always do this. Anyway, aren’t you the same? And you even say that to me.”
Yi Ting looked at the bag in her hand.
“Let’s buy together. What else do you need?”
“Chili, scallion, baby bok choy—oh, and some tofu.”
Su Xiaoxiao thought about her plan.
She was going to use tofu to make another dish for lunch.
It would get boring if it was just one thing.
“Pretty much the same as me. Let’s go.”
Yi Ting naturally took her hand.
“Ugh… Okay.”
Then they embarked on their grocery journey.
Along the way, Su Xiaoxiao asked a lot about where the vegetables were and when the market opened and closed.
The other girl didn’t ask why she was buying groceries.
It was obvious she was helping her parents.
“By the way, do you know what’s up with Xiaoyun today?”
When they were almost done and reached the entrance, Yi Ting suddenly asked.
“I called her out to play in the morning, but she said she had something to do and couldn’t come. She didn’t seem very happy either. Did something happen?”
“Uh…”
Su Xiaoxiao instantly realized what it was and her expression darkened.
“Maybe it’s about studying. The exam is tomorrow, after all…”
She lied.
“Oh, right. Me too. I have to hurry back and study. Physics is killing me.”
Yi Ting immediately waved goodbye with her groceries, then walked off in a different direction from Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao watched the girl disappear into the distance, feeling sorry for a certain crybaby inside.
I’m sorry.
I won’t ditch you again.
She thought guiltily in her heart, again and again.
Sigh, better get moving.
If I’m any later, I’ll get scolded.
Su Xiaoxiao set off on her way home.
She just forgot about her bold provocation on her phone earlier.

“Ring—”
A clear chime sounded in the big room.
The owner of the house immediately came to open the door after hearing it.
“You have a key. Can’t you open it yourself? I don’t want to run out of the bedroom every time just to let you in.”
Yu Xueqin looked down coldly at the white-haired girl with her hands full of groceries.
“Hurry up and get in.”
“Sorry, I was afraid you might be… doing something…”
The girl lifted her head slightly, as if to protest.
“I told you, there’s nothing going on.”
Hearing those words again, Yu Xueqin felt her anger flare up.
“Say that one more time?”
Once wasn’t enough—why a second time?
Is she messing with her on purpose?
Just because she was happy for a moment when she was around, this girl kept bringing it up.
“Ah, I don’t dare. Sorry.”
Su Xiaoxiao peeked at the Big Sister from Outside.
“But if you really were doing… ah, what are you doing?”
However, before she could finish, the girl was pulled inside.
In a flash, the groceries fell to the ground, and she was carried under the arms straight into the bedroom.
“So talkative?”
Yu Xueqin was out of breath.
She couldn’t stand being provoked again and again.
Her hands pressed against both sides of the girl’s head.
“If you like to bring that up so much, I’ll let you try it too.”
With that, she stripped off the girl’s school uniform, ignoring her resistance, leaving only two thin layers of clothing.
White on top, pink on the bottom.
“Ah, no, Elder Sister, what did I do wrong…”
Pinned down and powerless, Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t resist at all, forced to watch the Big Sister from Outside toy with her.
“Don’t be so rough.”
“Heh, didn’t you just challenge me on QQ? Now you’re scared?”
Yu Xueqin looked at the adorable girl who was almost hers, unable to contain herself any longer.
This time, you came to me yourself, so don’t blame Sister for being cruel.
“Ah, just now?”
Su Xiaoxiao blinked her big, innocent eyes at her.
“What just now? I don’t know… Don’t mind the nonsense I said on my phone.”
“Too late.”
“Ah, no—”
In the end, she was given “justice” on the spot.
It didn’t hurt, just weakened her body.
Within a few minutes, Big Sister from Outside walked out of the room, leaving the trembling girl curled up on the bed, wrapped in a blanket.
“I won’t mess with the keyboard anymore…”
Su Xiaoxiao hugged the soft quilt helplessly, her empty eyes staring at the sheets.
She looked like someone who had been completely ravaged.
She was on the verge of tears just for effect.
But in fact, nothing much happened.
They just looked at each other.
The most important parts were protected by her relative status and couldn’t be touched.
“Girls’ love is scary…”
The girl shrank her small body, merging perfectly with the blanket into a round half-sphere.
She wouldn’t be able to cook lunch today.
