Chapter 66: The Terrifying Sister

In the car.

Chen Shu opened the Ancient Cultivation Group.

Qingcai Keke: That side won't work anymore. The anti-vice squad came today and sealed off Tanxi Building. My friend there was caught soliciting prostitution directly. He called me and said he didn't even have his pants on at the time, and he's still locked up inside now.

Grandma Always Says: Really?

Grandma Always Says: Dying of laughter.

Grandma Always Says retracted a message.

Grandma Always Says: Then what is your friend going to do now? /tangled

Nameless Person: You can ask the group owner to help bail him out.

Haoran: I refuse.

Grandma Always Says: This silly group owner only knows how to mute people; apart from muting, he's useless.

Grandma Always Says was muted for 1 minute by Haoran.

Qingcai Keke: No need, just find a relative to go pick him up.

One minute later—

Grandma Always Says: Can they find him?

Qingcai Keke: He is a local of Yujing.

Grandma Always Says: That's good then, you scared me to death.

Qingcai Keke: /eye-roll

Qingcai Keke: It's just that that side won't work anymore, Zhao Haojiang probably won't go there again either.

Grandma Always Says: Oh, forgot to tell you.

Grandma Always Says: Earlier this evening, I already heard the relevant intelligence from the wiretap, including the approximate location of their transaction. This turtle-son went to find that girl from last night again. Tsk tsk, seeing the same one twice in a row, aren't you tired of it?

Qingcai Keke:...

Qingcai Keke: You didn't say that earlier?

Grandma Always Says: /scratching head

Grandma Always Says: Forgot.

Qingcai Keke: Damn it.

Qingcai Keke retracted a message.

Grandma Always Says: Saw it.

Grandma Always Says: Junior sister, be refined, oh.

Qingcai Keke: Thanks for the guidance, senior brother.

Closed the Ancient Cultivation Group.

Chen Shu saw the little girl beside him staring at him with burning eyes. He didn't know if she had been peeking at his chat, but he still said to her, "I only went there to search for some intelligence, to uphold justice."

"Mm!"

"You only know how to say 'mm'."

"Mm."

"Sigh..."

When they returned to the small courtyard, the night was already deep.

Chen Shu followed the little girl inside. He saw Taozi squatting on the back of the sofa, poking its head out to look at them as if curious. When Chen Shu passed by it, he gave it a casual slap, then went straight upstairs and knocked on Qingqing's door.

"Dong dong!"

"Not asleep, right?"

Naturally, there was no response from inside.

"I'm coming in."

After waiting a few seconds, Chen Shu tentatively turned the door handle and found it wasn't locked, so he opened the door and went in.

Qingqing was wearing pajamas, sitting cross-legged on the bed, holding A Book and reading. After seeing Chen Shu enter, she raised her head and looked at this person with an expressionless face.

"Qingqing..."

Chen Shu took a deep breath, made his voice very soft—a bit nauseating—and walked to the bedside. Calculating the distance, he faced the bed and fell forward, burying his entire face right into the crook of Qingqing's legs:

"I just got caught by the police."

A hand grabbed his hair, pulled his head up forcefully, and pushed it to the side.

Chen Shu looked up at her: "You must not get angry, don't lose your temper, keep your state of mind. I'll skip some unimportant things, and you don't mind either. Mm, besides the unimportant things, there are also some things that might lead to shame, I won't talk about those either."

"It's a long story..."

The words had just begun when they suddenly stopped.

The two turned their heads in unison—

They saw a small hand reach in through the doorway, gripping the handle of the door that hadn't been closed properly. Then, a small head also poked out from the wall. She glanced at the two people on the bed with an expressionless face, was silent for a moment, and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, I've already grown up. Remember to close the door properly when you rest."

Click.

She helped them close the door.

"..."

"..."

Chen Shu and Qingqing looked at each other, then he flipped over and continued to bury his head in the crook of Qingqing's legs. He only felt that the skin in this area was tender and smooth; the flesh of Qingqing's calves and thighs was soft, and having just bathed, she was full of a fresh fragrance.

"It's a long story..."

Ning Qing continued to push his face away, closed the book, and watched him quietly, listening to him recount. Her eyes were as calm as water, and one couldn't tell what she was thinking.

About five minutes later.

"I'm done talking."

Chen Shu looked at his childhood sweetheart, his girlfriend with whom he hadn't yet entered a romantic relationship, and rubbed his hands together, pretending to be a little nervous.

Ning Qing's face was as calm as water.

She didn't lose her composure?

Then that was fine.

He was mainly afraid that she was too petty and would lose her composure; in the past, whenever he finished training at the Anning Martial Arts Hall and accepted the massage services provided by the hall, she would be unhappy. If she lost her composure, all her hard work these past few days would have been in vain. Now it seemed that her practicing Jingxin Dao for so long was still useful.

Jingxin Dao, Jingxin Dao, judging by the name, it should be able to make people less irritable, right?

It could also be that Qingqing had grown up.

"..."

Ning Qing stared into his eyes. After a long while, she silently picked up her book and opened it to read again.

"My Qingqing is truly understanding!"

"Come, let me give you a hug!"

Chen Shu opened his arms, wanting to hug Qingqing. Mainly, because Qingqing was wearing these pajamas, she always felt very soft, and the texture seemed excellent.

Immediately, an open palm pressed against his face; the palm was soft and tender, stopping his actions.

Qingqing still kept her head lowered, looking at the paragraphs on the page.

"Alright, alright..."

"So petty..."

"Then I'll sleep on the sofa!"

Chen Shu opened her wardrobe, took out a blanket himself, and said to her, "Let's take Xiaoxiao hiking tomorrow. We've already been to the scenic spots before, but it's said that the mountains around Yujing also have quite beautiful scenery. Let's rent a car and go take a look."

Ning Qing didn't even pay him any mind.

Grabbing one of her pillows, Chen Shu walked out and glanced to the side; light was seeping through the gap at the bottom of the door next room.

The little girl wasn't asleep yet.

Yesterday, Ning Qing had tidied up the room next door and bought bedding for the little girl to stay in. It seemed she had already foreseen the little girl's competition results, so Chen Shu was also not worried at all about the little girl's exam performance.

He went downstairs, threw the pillow onto the sofa, went to the first-floor bathroom to wash up, and then lay down on the sofa, taking out his Mobile Phone.

Qingcai Keke invited Grandma Always Says to chat privately.

Qingcai Keke: Big Boss, what news did you hear?

Grandma Always Says: Why should I tell you?

Qingcai Keke:?

Grandma Always Says:??

Qingcai Keke: Aren't we partners?

Grandma Always Says: The partnership is over!

Grandma Always Says: /shrug

Qingcai Keke: Won't you tell me?

Grandma Always Says: What's there to tell you? I just heard when and where he plans to deliver goods to whom. Nothing interesting. I'm planning to round them all up at the designated location, break all their legs, and then call the police.

Qingcai Keke: So exciting.

Grandma Always Says: Want to join, newbie junior sister?

Qingcai Keke: /Can't afford to provoke you.

Grandma Always Says: Go to sleep.

Qingcai Keke: Goodnight, Senior Brother.

Grandma Always Says: Goodnight.

The next morning.

Chen Shu felt several little plum-blossom-shaped feet stepping all over him, as if they didn't treat him like a person, but just like an uneven blanket. Having never raised a cat before, he felt very unaccustomed to this.

At the same time, he faintly felt that someone was standing nearby, staring at him.

"..."

Chen Shu opened his eyes.

Just then, this stupid cat walked across his face; he didn't know where it came from or where it was going, but one of its hind paws happened to step right on his eye.

"?!"

Chen Shu hurriedly closed his eyes again, and only after it had walked past did he open his eyes once more.

He turned his head to look to the side—

A little girl wrapped in thick clothes was standing silently at the edge, only half a meter away from him, her hands in her pockets, staring at him expressionlessly. He didn't know how long she had been maintaining that posture.

"Morning, brother-in-law."

"Why are you staring at me?"

"Observation."

"Observing what?"

"Observing brother-in-law sleeping, being disturbed by Taozi." The little girl still maintained her previous posture and expression. "Brother-in-law, you are very quiet when you sleep."

"Are you also practicing Jingxin Dao?"

"I am not."

"How long have you been observing?"

"..." The little girl pulled her left hand out of her pocket, lowered her head, and looked at her watch. "46 minutes."

"Sigh..."

"Morning, brother-in-law."

"Morning."

Chen Shu finally responded to her, ending the topic; otherwise, she would say "Morning, brother-in-law" over and over again until noon, and perhaps even while eating lunch, she would occasionally pop out a "Good afternoon, brother-in-law" or something similar—this person had a bit of a screw loose.

"Where is your sister?"

"She hasn't gotten up yet."

"So lazy."

"Yeah."

Chen Shu got out of bed and walked toward the bathroom.

The little girl also started walking, following behind him: "Brother-in-law, do you know that Taozi was stepping all over you while you were asleep?"

"I suppose I did."

"You didn't hit it."

"I was asleep and didn't want to deal with it," Chen Shu said, then paused and turned his head to look at her, "You knew it was bothering me and didn't stop it."

"It was very fun."

"..."

"..."

"I'm going to the bathroom."

"Oh!"

Only then did the little girl stop, watching him walk into the bathroom, while she returned to the sofa to sit down, picked up Taozi to pet it, and looked back at the upstairs; her sister still hadn't come out, and she was so bored.

She really wanted to go bother her sister.

But she was also afraid of getting beaten.

After all, she was no longer in Bai City now, but at an awkward distance where her sister could grab her as soon as she reached out.

"It's so cold."

Brother-in-law came out of the bathroom and said to her, "Go upstairs and wake your sister up; we're going out to hike a mountain."

"Mm."

The little girl's eyes suddenly became determined—

This was what brother-in-law ordered!

It had nothing to do with her anymore.

The little girl put down Taozi and ran upstairs with a clatter, but just as she turned a corner, she bumped head-first into her sister's chest, which was soft. However, the recoil still made her stumble back a step, and she barely steadied herself; otherwise, she would have rolled down the stairs.

"..."

It's bigger than I imagined!

The little girl secretly glanced at her sister: "Brother-in-law told me to come wake you up; brother-in-law ordered it."

Her sister looked at her indifferently.

With just this one look, the little girl suddenly felt as if her inner thoughts had nowhere to hide.

Her sister was indeed terrifying.

The little girl muttered to herself and followed her sister downstairs.
