Sister, can I be a maid too?

Chapter 225: At most, I can only hug you.

Open the door and enter the room.

Jiang Yubai stopped in his tracks, looking at Lin Jianxia who had followed him in with a rather subtle expression.

"I said, was it really necessary to come into your two bedrooms...? Isn't the study still empty?"

“I need to use the study,” Lin Jianxia replied matter-of-factly. “I can’t exactly sit on the sofa, can I?”

"...Then why don't you come to my room? It's closer and more convenient there."

"No," Lin Jianxia denied immediately, "What if you bully Wanwan in your room?"

Jiang Yubai: "........."

—It's like I can't bully people here if I want to...

Seemingly sensing the meaning in Jiang Yubai's expression, Lin Jianxia immediately glared at him:

"Hey, do you think I'm willing?! If it weren't for... if it weren't for the fact that only an idiot like you could make Wanwan better, I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving Wanwan in your care!"

"It's just a chat," Jiang Yubai couldn't help but complain, "Don't make it sound so weird, okay?"

"Who's thinking such weird things!"

Lin Jianxia was so angry that she hit him with a pillow.

That's right.

After a long discussion, Lin Jianxia seemed to finally realize that Wanwan's recovery had not met expectations...

It should be related to Jiang Yubai.

Of course, this doesn't mean he wasn't putting in his best effort or was slacking off.

Instead, as time went on, the time that Jiang Yubai and Lin Tingwan used to spend alone was completely filled with college entrance exam preparation.

Now, after school, the three of them bury themselves in the study, doing exercises and memorizing. Even on weekends, they usually squeeze together.

So, in order for her Wanwan to speak as soon as possible, even though Lin Jianxia had some subtle grumbling in her heart, she decided to go back to how she was at the beginning—

Set aside some time each day to let that idiot Jiang Yubai spend some time alone with my Wanwan.

The location... will still be the two sisters' bedroom.

“I don’t have any objections,” Jiang Yubai hesitated for two seconds before saying, “but are you sure… Wanwan will get better like this?”

Of course.

Lin Jianxia wrinkled her little nose and continued,

"You saw what Wanwan was like at the beginning, and she got better slowly like this."

She paused, then pursed her lips:

"Besides... there are some things that Wanwan is only willing to tell you when you're alone with her, because the atmosphere is different, and even as her older sister, I can't do it for her."

"How did you know?" Jiang Yu asked in surprise.

Lin Jianxia didn't answer, but just glanced at him twice.

As she looked at it, she suddenly turned her head away, her face slightly flushed.

"How I know is none of your business..."

Jiang Yubai blinked, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and exclaimed in surprise:

"You don't have anything... uh, things you only want to say when you're alone, do you?"

".......No."

Jiang Yubai didn't believe it at all, but immediately became interested:

"Go ahead and talk, go ahead and talk. Look, isn't this perfect? ​​We're alone in a room now... oops, I mean, it's perfect for us to be alone. Just say what you want to say."

"Don't worry, I promise I won't tell Wanwan."

"No!"

Lin Jianxia glared at him, then pouted, with a "what's the use of trying" attitude:

"Anyway, Wanwan's illness depends on you. As her older sister, there's nothing I can do to help."

"If there's no progress, I'll be the first to take you down!"

Although he was very curious about what this girl wanted to say, Jiang Yubai still brought his thoughts back to the main topic.

—Treatment... I really want to get treatment.

After all, even though Wanwan is cute with her little notebook, I still want this silly girl to say something.

But I don't even know how Wanwan got better, okay? What if it doesn't work...?

Surely we can't really rely on hugs all the time?

As he pondered this, Jiang Yubai revealed a helpless expression.

Just as she was mentally complaining, she suddenly heard Lin Jianxia continue speaking, her tone slightly sullen:

"By the way... Wanwan trusts you so much, you should... be careful about what you say!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yubai couldn't help but laugh, pretending not to know anything, and continued to tease her:

"What kind of measure should we be mindful of?"

Lin Jianxia stared at him for a few seconds without saying a word.

She pursed her lips, then slowly leaned closer, and in Jiang Yubai's stunned gaze, gently placed her soft body into his arms.

Jiang Yubai remained frozen in place, his mind blank, completely unable to react until Lin Jianxia wrapped her soft arms around his waist and rested her head against his chest.

Wait, what's going on here? How the hell did things turn out like this?

Sister, weren't you just telling me to be careful? How come you're hugging me the next second?

Am I dreaming? Am I dreaming about acting in some kind of movie or TV show?

"Hey... wrap your arm around me."

Lin Jianxia's muffled voice came over.

Jiang Yubai, like a rusty robot, creaked and groaned as he put the wristband on upon hearing the command.

Lin Jianxia's ears turned red, but she still couldn't help but scold him:

"A little higher!"

Jiang Yubai made a silent adjustment.

There was a moment of silence between them, with only the soft undulation of their intertwined breaths in the air.

“Well,” Lin Jianxia suddenly spoke up, “that’s all I can do.”

She let go of his hand, her ears turning bright red, but she still forced herself to maintain a serious expression.

"You can only hug her, and you can't put your hands anywhere... Don't take advantage of Wanwan just because she doesn't know!"

Jiang Yubai: "......."

Hearing this, he finally realized what was happening.

So... you were just giving a demonstration from here?!

Jiang Yubai chuckled, then stared at her without saying a word.

Lin Jianxia was able to maintain her self-righteous demeanor, but as she looked around, her face grew redder and redder, and her eyes couldn't help but wander around.

Finally, one of the little hedgehogs couldn't hold back any longer. It glared back sharply, its ears turning bright red, and shouted:

"I told you to speak! Why are you staring at me like that!"

Jiang Yubai still didn't respond, but looked at her for a few more seconds before raising an eyebrow and asking curiously:

"You...you really didn't want to hug me?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia froze on the spot, her eyes slowly widening.

Jiang Yubai was about to tease her a bit more when the girl suddenly pounced on him, yelling in a fit of embarrassment and anger:

"Jiang! Yu! Bai—!!!"

"Hey, calm down! This is your bed!"

"This is Wanwan's pillow! It's not for hitting people!"

"Hey, damn it, don't bite me! Lin Jianxia, ​​are you a puppy?!"

......

Well, I won't go into details about what happened next.

In short, Jiang Yu wasted a lot of effort to barely calm down the little hedgehog who was completely out of control.

Sometimes, he really wanted to slap himself.

Why not just keep it to yourself?

The bed was a complete mess.

Jiang Yubai sat at the foot of the bed, holding a pillow, looking as if facing a formidable enemy, and said warily:

"Sister, if you keep making a fuss, it'll be time for dinner soon. Do you even want Wanwan to speak?"

Lin Jianxia, ​​sitting by the bedside, gritted her teeth and finally gave up the idea of ​​continuing her attack. With a snort, she threw the other pillow she was holding back onto the bed.

“Then I’ll go call Wanwan over,” Lin Jianxia pouted. “You can get ready yourself.”

Seeing that the little hedgehog had finally let him go, Jiang Yubai thought to himself with a grumble.

What's there to prepare...? There's nothing to prepare for...

Are you going to give me a hug?

With that thought in mind, he put down his pillow and subconsciously began to look around.

Although I had often visited the sisters' bedroom before, that was a long time ago.
