Sister, can I be a maid too?

Jiang Yubai barely understood what Dr. Su meant, and his brows slowly furrowed:

"Then... is there really no other way?"

I used to be silent every night because I had a mental illness; at least I still had something to look forward to.

But now that they're all better, what should I do if they still don't talk to me?

"Don't rush," Su Xianyun raised her hand, her tone becoming more serious, "Actually, there are still two ways."

Jiang Yubai perked up: "Go ahead."

Su Xianyun spoke slowly and deliberately, and began to explain:

"Essentially, Wanwan hasn't yet found a strong enough opportunity to actively break this long-standing state."

"The first approach is to address the root cause. Simply put, it's about finding the psychological issues that led her to this state and then resolving them."

Jiang Yubai was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened slowly.

Although Lin Jianxia and Lin Tingwan never told him the specific reason why Wanwan became like this, Jiang Yubai could probably guess the most likely reason after spending so much time together.

Most of the problems stem from their family environment when they were young.

More accurately, it's related to their biological father, who hasn't shown up since they started high school and has disappeared without a trace.

"What is the second option?"

Jiang Yubai rejected the first proposal almost instantly.

Just kidding, unless the two sisters bring it up themselves, he absolutely doesn't want them to have anything to do with that irresponsible man anymore.

To put it selfishly, he even thought it best if that guy never showed up again, lest he come out and annoy people again once life calmed down.

Su Xianyun showed no surprise at his choice, and simply nodded gently.

"Yes, I understand."

This reaction made Jiang Yubai blink.

He thought for two seconds, then suddenly realized:

"Sister Su...did you deliberately send Xia away just now because of this?"

“Yes,” Su Xianyun said calmly, “As twin sisters who grew up together, the traumas they experienced were largely shared and influenced each other.”

"So it's best if we discuss this topic first, and then you, who are closer to me, can bring it up."

Jiang Yubai nodded silently.

Su Xianyun was clearly used to this kind of situation, and instead of delving deeper into the previous topic, she continued:

"As for the second option... it's much safer than the first, but the results are hard to guarantee."

A somewhat helpless smile appeared on her face:

"Simply put, it's about asking Wanwan if there's anything she wants to eat, anywhere she wants to go, or any wish she wants to fulfill."

"And then... just help her achieve it."

Jiang Yubai hesitated for two seconds, then asked somewhat uncertainly:

"Isn't this just to make her happy?"

Su Xianyun chuckled, a rare occurrence for her.

"Yes, to sum it up, it's about making her happy and seeing if she'll speak when she's emotional."

"...Can this succeed?"

"That depends on you guys." Su Xianyun paused, then stood up. "Alright, I have some things to do this afternoon, so I won't bother you any longer."

Jiang Yubai stood up, instinctively wanting to mention the medical fee, but then remembered what he had said before leaving, and immediately changed the subject:

"By the way, Sister Su, I have some good tea left over from my hometown. Would you like to take some back with you and try it?"

Su Xianyun shook her head helplessly:

"I'm telling you... this makes it seem like I came here specifically to ask for tea. Let's do it next time, maybe another time."

"Next time? There won't be any next time." Jiang Yubai pretended to hesitate. "Sister Su, this is the last small packet I got from my dad. If you don't take it, Xia Wanwan and I will probably finish it in a few days."

"As you know, we can't taste it; we're just drinking it like water, which is a bit of a waste... You really don't want it?"

Su Xianyun paused slightly, looked up at him for two seconds, then chuckled and reached out her hand.

Jiang Yubai chuckled:

"Okay~"

After the three of them saw Su Xianyun off, Lin Jianxia finally couldn't help but nudge him with her elbow:

"Tell me quickly, what did Sister Su tell you?"

Jiang Yubai closed the door, looked at the two sisters with curious expressions, and thought for a moment:

"Let's go talk in the living room."

.......

Ten minutes later.

After repeating what Su Xianyun had just told him, Jiang Yubai took a sip of water and concluded:

"That's how it is."

Lin Jianxia looked at Jiang Yubai with a somewhat subtle expression, then glanced at her own Wanwan:

"So... this is the treatment plan?"

Jiang Yubai nodded and hummed in agreement.

Lin Jianxia's face fell, and she simply imitated his usual behavior, reaching out to gently pinch her younger sister's soft cheek.

As she kneaded and pinched him, she drawled out her words, half-coquettish and half-pleading:

"Wait...wait...say something, okay? It's been so long since I heard your voice..."

Even though Lin Tingwan's face was being pinched, she still tried to open her mouth when she heard this.

Lin Jianxia immediately stopped what she was doing, held her breath, and looked over with anticipation.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't utter a single syllable, and Lin Tingwan's face became somewhat troubled.

"Just a little more effort, please..."

Lin Jianxia looked even more pitiful, gazing at her with pleading eyes.

"Alright, alright," Jiang Yubai reached out and pulled her aside, then turned to look at Lin Tingwan, "Wanwan heard it too, right?"

Lin Tingwan nodded obediently.

"Then... Wanwan, if there's anything you want or anything you want to achieve, you can tell us, okay?"

Jiang Yubai slowed down his speech and patiently guided him:

"Whatever delicious food you want to eat, wherever you want to go, or whatever special thing you want to do, that's fine with you."

Lin Jianxia also composed herself and looked over expectantly.

Lin Tingwan tilted her head and thought about it seriously for a moment, then took out her small notebook and quickly wrote something down.

Jiang Yubai and Lin Jianxia moved closer at the same time, holding their breath, wanting to see what her first request would be.

The notebook contained only four large characters:

"I want to eat chicken wings."

The two of them paused for a moment, then looked at each other in bewilderment.

Another ten minutes later.

Seeing Lin Tingwan happily munching on a chicken wing, Lin Jianxia's expression became rather subtle.

She nudged Jiang Yubai with her elbow and whispered:

"I feel like...it's not very useful."

Jiang Yubai glanced at her speechlessly:

"It really doesn't work... If eating chicken wings were effective, Wanwan would have spoken up long ago, okay?"

"Then why did you go and buy it!"

"Let's give it a try," Jiang Yubai said nonchalantly. "Besides, Wanwan wants to eat it, so let's just buy it for her."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia plopped down on the sofa with a thud and started yelling:

"This is completely useless!"

Jiang Yubai, slightly exasperated, counted on his fingers and explained:

"You can't say that. Sister Su said we should pay attention to what she 'especially' wants, where she 'especially' wants to go, or any unfulfilled wishes she has in her heart..."

He emphasized the word "special" and continued:

"I estimate that the more easily something is obtained in daily life, the less it may affect one's emotions and expression."

"I eat chicken wings almost every day, so I probably don't feel anything special about them."

Lin Jianxia lay on the sofa and thought for a moment before offering an idea:

"You mean...we should starve Wanwan for three days before giving her chicken wings?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tingwan, who was happily munching on chicken wings, paused and looked up at her with a somewhat blank expression.

Jiang Yubai's lips twitched as he looked over, then he raised his hand and gave him a sharp rap on the head:

"I meant fulfilling something else for her, like a higher-level wish! Is what you're suggesting a legitimate solution that humans could even think of?!"

After being hit on the forehead, Lin Jianxia cried out "Ouch!" and sat up straight, clutching her head.

She whimpered with a pained expression:

"I'm just... I'm just suggesting a possibility..."

You really are her older sister...

Jiang Yubai was speechless, so he simply turned to look at Lin Tingwan and said in a softer voice:
