Sister, can I be a maid too?

Lin Tingwan had a small piece of biscuit in her mouth, blinked her eyes, but showed no sign of disappointment.

Jiang Yubai had just been pressed to the edge of the sofa and was lying on the armrest, while Lin Tingwan had half her body pressed against him, supporting herself with her hands on either side.

After staring at each other for a few seconds, the girl suddenly bent her arms and her soft body fell into Jiang Yubai's arms.

Lin Tingwan wrapped her arms around his waist, rested her head against his chest, slowly closed her eyes, and exuded an atmosphere of contentment.

Seeing her so calm and content, Jiang Yubai's previously stiff expression gradually relaxed, and a hint of helplessness slowly crept into her demeanor.

That idiot.......

She probably really doesn't know anything, but seeing her older sister like this, she tried to imitate her.

Just like a cat.

Meowing for a head pat, once petted and feeling comfortable, it curls up contentedly in your arms, rubs against your palm, and then quietly closes its eyes.

These two sisters seem to be like that.

They looked like two kittens who had lost their mother. The younger sister was timid and introverted, and could only cower in huddled up, looking aggrieved.

The older sister could only try harder to shoulder her responsibilities, even though she was trembling, she still breathed on anything that posed a threat to them.

Jiang Yubai sighed inwardly again, now completely devoid of any romantic thoughts.

He hesitated for a moment, then reached out and gently patted the little guy's head.

Lin Tingwan, nestled in his arms, seemed to sense his movement, nuzzling her head against him and squinting her eyes in even greater comfort.

So when Lin Jianxia, ​​having changed her clothes, entered the room, this was the scene she saw.

On the sofa, Jiang Yubai lay sprawled out, while his daughter Wanwan nestled into his arms, her arms wrapped around his waist, her face pressed against his chest.

—Why is that big bad guy bullying Wanwan again?!

Upon seeing this, Lin Jianxia's eyes widened immediately, and she instinctively wanted to rebuke him.

But the next second, she abruptly stopped talking and looked at him carefully again.

The two remained in that position, seemingly unaware of her arrival.

Looking again, Jiang Yubai and Lin Tingwan's eyes were both closed peacefully, their breathing even and long, indicating that they were already asleep.

Lin Jianxia's previously sullen expression softened, and she pouted.

She walked over to the sofa, looked around, and quickly noticed the half-eaten Pocky box on the sofa.

Lin Jianxia's pretty face flushed slightly, and her gaze wandered, clearly thinking of some rather romantic scenes.

But then, she frowned and looked back at the sofa with suspicion.

Upon seeing the chocolate stain on her younger sister's lips, she narrowed her eyes and carefully examined Jiang Yubai's lips, but couldn't find a similar mark for a long time.

.....No.

It shouldn't be that bad, right?

Yeah, I doubt Jiang Yubai would dare to do that.

Lin Jianxia was slightly relieved, but looking around, her brows slowly furrowed again.

Idiot... why are you sleeping on the sofa...?

The sun is almost setting, but I'm not afraid of catching a cold.

After thinking for a moment, she quietly went into the study, brought out a thin blanket, and carefully covered the two of them with it.

Perhaps because she had been out shopping all afternoon and was quite tired, Lin Tingwan was fast asleep, completely unaware of her older sister's actions.

Jiang Yubai frowned, mumbled something indistinctly, and then his breathing gradually became even again.

Lin Jianxia finally felt relieved.

Although she didn't know what she was hanging up on.

She squatted by the sofa, gazing at Jiang Yubai's sleeping face, and suddenly became lost in thought.

This idiot, when he's asleep... he actually looks quite good...

With long eyelashes and a high nose bridge, her usually lazy smile was now relaxed, revealing a rare tranquility.

The main problem is that its big mouth has stopped talking!

Thinking of this, Lin Jianxia blinked and suddenly had some mischievous ideas.

—How about... we draw a pig on this idiot's face?

When he wakes up, he'll find a pig drawn on his face, completely unaware, and looking at his own cheerful self with a puzzled expression...

Yeah, yeah, that would be really interesting!

Besides, there are watercolor pens in the study; the water washes it off easily, so there's no need to worry about it not coming off...

Lin Jianxia stroked her chin thoughtfully, beginning to seriously consider the feasibility of the plan.

In the end, the girl glanced at the time on the wall, sighed, and regretfully gave up on this tempting idea.

After all... if I were to actually draw it, there wouldn't be enough time to make dinner.

What if this idiot starts complaining about being hungry again?

Honestly, all they know is eating...

Lin Jianxia pouted and finally stood up.

She reached out her small hand and lightly flicked his forehead before walking contentedly to the kitchen.

Oh well, what can I do? This idiot gave me such a big teddy bear.

"He who takes a bribe is bound to be obligated to feed him; he who eats another's food is obligated to eat it. I'd better cook something nice for this guy."

So, what should I make for this idiot today?

It must be stir-fried pork with chili peppers... Don't you ever get tired of eating it every day?

As she muttered these thoughts to herself, the girl had just tied on her apron and lowered her ponytail when she noticed the box of durian mille-feuille on the cutting board.

Ok?

Lin Jianxia blinked, reached out and took a piece, then put it in her mouth.

The rich aroma of durian melts in your mouth, the cream is smooth and creamy, the mille-feuille pastry is thin and soft, and the sweetness is just right.

But her thoughts seemed to wander elsewhere; her gaze drifted, and her fair face slowly flushed.

I don't know what I was thinking.

..........

Chapter 224 Something's Wrong with Jian Xia and Ting Wan Who Needs Treatment

After a short break, the three of them returned to their original study routine.

On study days, there are four test papers every day without fail, and on weekends, there are a few more sets of mock tests.

The motto is to study as hard as you can, even to the point of exhaustion, as long as you don't die from it.

To be honest, at this stage, even the teachers are emphasizing that now is not the time to improve scores; all we need to do is maintain stability, stability, and more stability.

However, the three of them clearly cannot relax now, because to secure a place at Linda University, they must put in several times more effort than before.

There's nothing I can do; it's my own fault for not studying hard enough before.

Jiang Yubai could only console himself with this bittersweet feeling.

Everything seemed the same as before, except...

Lin Jianxia seems a bit strange.

Ever since that shopping trip, Jiang Yubai has felt that something is off about this girl.

This guy would always sneak a glance over from time to time, but every time he turned away strangely, the girl would quickly lower her head or turn around, pretending to be doing her homework seriously and acting as if nothing was wrong.

After several attempts, Jiang Yubai finally couldn't help but ask, but Lin Jianxia looked completely justified and insisted that she had definitely misread it.

After this happened a few times, Jiang Yubai stopped asking and let the guy steal glances at him.

But the doubt that had been lingering in my mind slowly resurfaced.

......

......

Sunday afternoon.

Lin Jianxia and Jiang Yubai sat side by side on the sofa, with an unknown variety show playing on the TV, but neither of them paid any attention to it.

"The results of the second mock exam will be released tomorrow. According to tradition, this should be the most difficult one yet."

"Hmm."

"So, we don't need to improve our scores this time. As long as we get scores similar to our previous mock exam scores, that's a victory."

"Hmm."

"But there's really no need to worry too much. Based on our previous results, we're basically guaranteed to pass the cutoff score. All that's left is to give it our all and see if we can get into our desired major."

"Hmm."

"...Are you even listening to me?"

"Hmm."

Jiang Yubai was speechless and stared at her with a blank expression.

Several seconds passed before Lin Jianxia seemed to just realize what was happening. She turned her gaze from the study door back to Lin Jianxia, ​​looking somewhat bewildered, and said:

"ah.......?"

He wasn't listening at all...

Jiang Yubai sighed and said helplessly:

"I understand how you feel... but is it really necessary to worry so much? Dr. Su has come so many times already."
