Chapter 372

~6 min read 1,112 words

Sister-complex? Tenglin Xing widened her eyes.

Lin Ye continued, easing the atmosphere, "I'm an only child, so sometimes I envy families with siblings, especially since I live alone in Japan now; an apartment is always a bit lonely for one person."

Upon hearing this, Tenglin Muku immediately felt this was an opportunity.

"Um, that... Lin-kun, you can come visit our home more often in the future; my sister's cooking is very good,"

She believed that if Lin Ye and her sister spent more time together, they would definitely be able to get along harmoniously.

Her sister's current aversion was mostly due to the bad first impression.

Time would definitely change all of this.

Who knows, maybe everyone will become one family in the future!

Tenglin Muku felt shy; how could she suddenly think of such things!

"You can come visit our home, but don't have any designs on Muku."

Tenglin Xing reminded him with her arms crossed.

"Then can I 'not come visit, but have designs on Muku'?"

Tenglin Muku blushed.

Tenglin Xing was shocked.

"Don't even think about it, no, absolutely not, our home doesn't welcome you. Muku, go upstairs,"

But Tenglin Xing couldn't pull her sister at all.

At this moment, Tenglin Muku stood where she was, motionless, not wanting to go upstairs at all.

"Sister, why don't you go upstairs first!"

Tenglin Xing:???

You're the one who should go upstairs! You're actually telling me to go upstairs now?

Seeing this, Tenglin Xing didn't leave either.

Anyway, if Muku didn't leave, she wouldn't leave either, even if it was chilly downstairs and felt eerie, she wouldn't leave.

Seeing this, Tenglin Muku began to take the initiative to ask about Lin Ye's purpose.

"Is there something Lin Ye came here for today?"

She actually knew Lin Ye's purpose, but given her sister's current attitude, she clearly had no way to help Lin Ye.

Tenglin Muku felt some regret for not checking her phone in time, which caused her to miss Lin Ye.

Lin Ye noticed Tenglin Xing's warning gaze. "Mainly to see how Miss Tenglin Xing is recovering. Now that I see Miss Tenglin Xing is full of life, strong as a tiger and able to beat five cows to death, I'm relieved."

Five cows?

You're trying to say I'm a tigress, right!

Tenglin Xing's mouth twitched.

"Sister, look at how much Lin-kun cares about you, he even came here specially today, and you've been averse to Lin-kun all along."

Muku, you're actually lecturing me; you don't know what he did to me.

Tenglin Xing didn't have the guts to say it out loud; she still wanted to save face, and even more so, she didn't want to be misunderstood by Muku. "These are two different things; gratitude is gratitude, dislike is dislike, I distinguish them very clearly."

Tenglin Muku felt helpless and cast an apologetic gaze toward Lin Ye.

But one day, she would definitely make her sister and Lin-kun get along well.

And Lin Ye looked at the time. "It's getting late, I'll head back first."

"I'll see you off."

Tenglin Muku said immediately.

"I'll go too,"

"Sister,"

Tenglin Muku stared and spoke slowly. "Sister, I'm a bit tired and want to take a bath early; could you please help me run the hot water?"

This was clearly an attempt to send her away; Tenglin Xing didn't want to agree.

But facing her sister's gaze, she finally compromised. "Don't go too far."

Don't you dare see him off all the way to a hotel or inn!

She didn't dare to say these words out loud.

"Yeah."

Tenglin Xing went to the bathroom unwillingly, looking back every few steps, worried about her sister Tenglin Muku.

Lin Ye and Tenglin Muku walked out the front door, and Tenglin Muku took the initiative to close the door.

"Sorry, Lin-kun, my sister has caused you trouble."

"It's nothing."

"Can I still help you here?"

"No need."

"Eh!"

Tenglin Muku exclaimed, "I'm sorry, because of my sister, how about I come out later?"

This girl really trusts him.

But who else could they be, having lived and died together!

"Really, no need. I have already roughly confirmed the situation of my ability,"

"Oh!"

The girl with purple shoulder-length hair was filled with a sense of loss.

"Alright, instead of worrying about my affairs, I think Muku, you should worry more about your sister."

Worry about my sister?

Could it be... the Eerie?

Is my sister still being entangled by the Eerie?

"Lin-kun, I beg you, you must help my sister."

She stepped forward, grabbed Lin Ye's wrist with both hands, her eyes brimming with tears, a touch of sadness and worry appearing, and the crystal-clear tears seemed as if they would fall in the next second.

"This... I'm not the right person, am I!"

Lin Ye showed a troubled expression.

"I, I have no one else I can trust except Lin-kun. Please save my sister, I, I am willing to do anything..."

As the words fell, Tenglin Muku felt her little head being tapped lightly.

"You misunderstood; your sister is currently not in any life-threatening danger, and she won't be affected by the Eerie for the time being,"

"Eh! Sigh!" Tenglin Muku was pleasantly surprised, but then she was puzzled.

If it's not this matter, then what is it?

"Your sister is too stupid."

"Ah!"

My sister, very stupid?

"For a stupid woman like your sister, I think I'll have absolutely no problem tricking her into having twins."

Tenglin Muku blushed immediately.

Subsequently, Lin Ye briefly described his interaction with Tenglin Xing just now to Tenglin Muku.

But for Tenglin Muku, she only had one thought—Lin Ye already knew about her sister's plan to offer herself.

"Your sister owes me an 'offering herself'."

"..."

Tenglin Muku lowered her head.

As expected, Lin Ye still has more favor for her sister.

"You have to repay it for your sister; the sister's debt is repaid by the younger sister, hmm, this logic is flawless."

Upon hearing this, Tenglin Muku immediately raised her head, her eyes blank; the shyness in her heart erupted like a volcanic eruption, and it was now difficult to suppress as it appeared on her cheeks.

What did Lin-kun say?

Sister's debt repaid by the younger sister? Does this, does this mean he wants her to offer herself?

"It's about time, I'll head back first. If there are any special changes on your sister's side, be sure to contact me in time."

Lin Ye had already brought the person back from the Inner World, but were there any remnants of the 'Nightmare Potion'? Were there any side effects from the 'Soul-Suppressing Potion'?
