Chapter 166: Twin Younger Sister

~6 min read 1,038 words

Previously, the five campus belles of Lan Lin were Mu Youyu, Bai Yun, Luo Yi, Leng Yueyou, and An Guan.

Back then, An Guan was still a miss of the West City An Group, from a wealthy family, outstanding in looks, and also considered a prominent figure at school.

Later, the An family went bankrupt, and An Guan transferred schools, no longer studying here.

Thus, the five campus belles of Lanlin Gaozhong became four: Mu Youyu, Bai Yun, Luo Yi, and Leng Yueyou!

And Mu Youyu still firmly held the top position among the four campus belles.

Yu Ci said, "Hey, shall we go check the classroom?"

Mu Youyu and Jiang Liangjin smiled and had no objection.

Gu Xingnan, meanwhile, habitually indulged.

Leng Anzhi was naturally curious about this legendary high school, so she had no objection.

Together, they arrived at the second building of Lanlin Gaozhong.

Pushing open the ajar door of Class A, the classroom held only a lone figure.

Mu Youyu recognized her at once, surprised, her voice tinged with excitement: "Song Song? Why haven't you gone home yet? It's almost been two hours since school let out."

Jiang Liangjin stood at her side, his gaze following hers.

Mo Song was hunched over the desk, writing something.

Hearing the familiar voice, she jerked her head up, and upon seeing the group at the door her eyes lit up: "Yu-jie! I'm waiting for Leng Yueyou."

Mu Youyu swept her gaze around the classroom, but didn't see Leng Yueyou's figure.

"Leng Yueyou?" Leng Anzhi heard the name, her delicate brows lifting slightly: "She's also in this class?"

Mu Youyu stepped aside, naturally making space, and introduced them: "Song Song, this is Leng Anzhi, my friend, and also your desk mate Leng Yueyou's twin younger sister."

"Anzhi, this is Mo Song, my friend."

As she spoke, the corner of her vision seemed to have a mind of its own, unconsciously drifting toward Jiang Liangjin at her side.

Coincidentally, Jiang Liangjin was also looking at her.

Their gazes briefly met in the air, then quickly withdrew, as if faint crackles of electricity filled the space.

Mo Song froze for a moment, clearly not expecting to see Leng Yueyou's twin younger sister here.

She quickly recovered, politely nodding and offering a friendly smile: "Hello."

She had previously lived at the Leng household, so she naturally knew the Leng family's complicated relations: this generation had three misses and one young master.

Although outsiders see the Fourth Miss, Leng Yueyue, as the family head's beloved daughter and thus the most favored,

she still knows the truth: the family head truly cherishes the Second Miss, Leng Anzhi, who has long been abroad.

The Leng family head still favors this Second Miss, Leng Anzhi; when she came to the Leng household in junior high three, Leng Anzhi was already overseas, so she had never met her in person.

Unexpectedly, she and Leng Yueyou don't look alike.

Before us, Leng Anzhi has a gentle appearance, her features exquisite like a doll in a display case.

Her demeanor is completely unlike Leng Yueyou's.

"Hello." Leng Anzhi gave a slight nod, her tone flat, revealing little emotion.

She harbors complicated feelings toward this nominal elder sister.

The two had little to say.

Mu Youyu, Jiang Liangjin, Gu Xingnan, and Yu Ci also remained silent.

Just then, light footsteps sounded down the hall, followed by a clear, cool voice calling: "Xiao Yu?"

Everyone turned, only to see Leng Yueyou standing at the doorway.

Upon seeing Mu Youyu, a flicker of surprise and joy crossed her eyes; she then noticed the people behind her, especially Leng Anzhi, causing her steps to pause and a complex expression to appear on her face.

"Anzhi? How did you come back?" Leng Yueyou's voice held a hint of surprise.

Leng Anzhi crossed her arms, her posture somewhat casual; standing beside Mu Youyu, her tone remained even and unreadable: "Just came to take a look."

Seeing how much Leng Anzhi had changed, Leng Yueyou stared, stunned, and said nothing.

Jiang Liangjin, Gu Xingnan, and Yu Ci originally had little interaction with Leng Yueyou.

Now they stood quietly to the side, only their eyes flickering among the group.

The atmosphere became slightly delicate.

Mu Youyu sensed some distance between them and didn't want to linger, politely asking: "Yueyou, we're accompanying Anzhi to the office—do you want to come?"

She then glanced at the others nearby.

Jiang Liangjin smiled and said, "Let's go."

Gu Xingnan and Yu Ci naturally followed the two.

Mo Song glanced at Leng Yueyou, seeing no clear objection, and was about to nod in agreement.

But Leng Yueyou beat her to it, looking at Mu Youyu and speaking calmly: "Xiao Yu, no thanks—we still need to head home, so we won't disturb you."

Mu Youyu instinctively shifted half a step toward Jiang Liangjin, her fingertips nearly brushing his arm, then pulled back at the last moment.

Jiang Liangjin caught this subtle movement, the corner of his mouth lifting slightly.

He stepped forward, silently positioning himself at Mu Youyu's side, his gaze on Leng Yueyou, and said evenly: "Then we'll be off as well."

Seeing Mu Youyu say little more, Leng Yueyou gave Mo Song a look.

Mo Song instantly got the message, rose, swiftly grabbed her bag, and smiled at Mu Youyu: "Yu-jie, see you Monday!"

Mu Youyu's expression unchanged, she merely waved lightly: "See you Monday."

The two left.

Aside from a few people, the classroom was empty.

Watching Leng Yueyou and Mo Song's retreating backs, Yu Ci couldn't help but mutter: "This atmosphere is really awkward, isn't it?"

Leng Anzhi heard it, paused, and said nothing.

She really has nothing to say to this older sister.

Gu Xingnan also nodded, "Indeed, a bit."

Jiang Liangjin moved closer to Mu Youyu, tone gentle: "Don't think too much, let's go to the office."

Mu Youyu lifted her head, meeting Jiang Liangjin's gentle gaze, that slight discomfort in her heart instantly vanished.

She smiled, "Mm, let's go."

She saw Leng Anzhi not speaking, and also didn't understand what had happened between the two, turned to look at Leng Anzhi, "Anzhi, let's go, we're going to the office."

"Okay." Leng Anzhi came to, nodded.
