They actually tried to pin the blame on me...

Lin Jianxia, ​​you're choosing the path to heaven over the path to hell, aren't you?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yubai coughed heavily, adopting a righteous and indignant posture:

"That's outrageous! Bringing something like this into the house is absolutely unacceptable!"

Lin Jianxia was stunned by his indignant expression and didn't react for a moment.

Wait, what's this guy doing all of a sudden?

Before she could figure it out, Jiang Yubai strode to the bedside and said with a pained expression:

“Miss Lin Jianxia, ​​I fully support your point of view! This kind of strange thing should absolutely not appear in Lin Tingwan’s room.”

"Last time, those books taught Wanwan to ask for hugs. If this time it's another romance novel, the impact on a teenager's mind will be immeasurable!"

Lin Jianxia looked completely bewildered.

Huh? She didn't even see what the novel looked like, and you just open your mouth and you know it's a romance novel?

Wait... a romance novel?

Lin Jianxia blinked, suddenly having a bad feeling.

After delivering his impassioned speech, Jiang Yubai turned to Lin Tingwan and said:

"Um...can I see the book you're holding?"

Lin Jianxia silently rolled her eyes in her mind.

Wanwan won't even let me, her own sister, see her, and you just go up there and say something and want to...

think......

Lin Tingwan nodded and readily handed the novel she had hidden behind her back to Jiang Yubai.

Lin Jianxia: "......."

She blinked, looked at her younger sister, then at Jiang Yubai, and could hardly believe her eyes.

Why?!

Before he could even ask a question, Jiang Yubai glanced at the book in his hand:

"Let me see what book it is. Oh, how come I have a childhood sweetheart after being reborn?"

How come I have a childhood sweetheart after being reborn?

There's an extra green plum~

梅~

Lin Jianxia froze, her head buzzing, with only that name lingering in her mind.

Jiang Yubai looked at Lin Jianxia's blank expression with amusement, feeling that his decision to call Lin Tingwan this time was absolutely right.

Just as he was feeling smug, he saw Lin Jianxia suddenly bite her lower lip and pounce on him.

I rely on!

Jiang Yubai twisted his body, barely dodging her grabbing hand.

Lin Jianxia missed her first attack, then turned around and tried to snatch the book again.

This time, Jiang Yubai was on guard, easily dodging the opponent's attacks. Finally, he simply raised the book high above his head, raised an eyebrow, and said:

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Lin Jianxia remained silent, her eyes fixed on the novel, hopping and skipping on tiptoe to try and reach it.

Jiang Yubai wasn't annoyed at all, and calmly held up the book.

After trying a few more times, Lin Jianxia finally resigned herself to her fate, panting slightly, her eyes glaring at him with shame and indignation.

Why?!

She had clearly hidden this book under the cabinet at the very back of the bathroom!

Why did it end up in Lin Tingwan's hands?!

Jiang Yubai outwardly pursed his lips, but inwardly he was absolutely overjoyed.

Lin Jianxia, ​​who was just dodging and weaving by Lin Tingwan, is now being easily toyed with by him...

He glanced to the side and saw that Lin Tingwan on the bed had sat up straight at some point, looking like she was watching a show intently.

"Jiang Yubai, you already knew what this book was all along, didn't you!"

Lin Jianxia glared at him.

Now that I think about it, no wonder he said that earlier. He was just waiting to see her make a fool of herself, wasn't he?

How could there be such a wicked person?!

“Hey, hey, hey,” Jiang Yubai said calmly, “I’m just giving you a friendly reminder.”

He waved the book in his hand:

"No matter what... I didn't give this book to Lin Tingwan, did I?"

Lin Jianxia choked for a moment.

Jiang Yubai coughed lightly, then pressed his advantage, saying:

"So Miss Lin Jianxia usually reads these kinds of things... Let me read what this says—"

"Qiu Kejing chuckled and willingly nestled herself into Lu Zhichen's arms, then..."

Before she could finish reading, Lin Jianxia, ​​her face flushed red, pounced on her in embarrassment and anger.

"Jiang! Yu! Bai—!!!"

Chapter 87 Who Wants to Hold Your Hand?! (Fourth Update!)

After a flurry of chaotic cat-like punches, Lin Jianxia...

I still couldn't get that novel.

There was no way around it; after all, the difference in height and build was undeniable, and Jiang Yubai easily subdued him.

Jiang Yubai ignored the girl who was still struggling against his arm. Instead, he looked at the description in the novel in his hand and suddenly realized something.

Holy crap... no wonder Lin Tingwan suddenly stopped wanting hugs and started using him as a human cushion instead...

So you learned that from this book too?

Jiang Yubai came to his senses and looked at Lin Jianxia again. Her eyes and ears were almost red, and she looked like she was about to cry from anger.

His heart softened, and he stopped teasing her, handing her the book instead.

"Here you go."

Lin Jianxia was taken aback at first, then quickly snatched the book back into her arms and hugged it tightly to her chest.

Jiang Yu glanced at it, then glanced at it again.

I couldn't help but glance at it again.

"What are you looking at?"

Lin Jianxia's gaze was very wary.

"Oh..." Jiang Yubai casually looked away. "Reading a book."

He cleared his throat and changed the subject;

"Hey Lin Jianxia, ​​if you're going to hide your books, at least hide them properly so they don't get found out so easily, okay?"

"Besides," he said, glancing helplessly at Lin Tingwan on the bed, "it's not like your sister is a child anymore... so what if she saw it?"

Lin Jianxia was still fuming:

"Leave me alone!"

"Alright, alright, whatever you want," Jiang Yu waved his hand and sat down next to Lin Tingwan. "I have something to tell you."

Lin Tingwan blinked and looked at him quietly.

“Well… a doctor might come to our house in a couple of days,” Jiang Yubai said, trying to soften her tone. “It’s Dr. Su, the one who saw you before. He wants to chat with you again and see how you are doing lately.”

He paused, observing Lin Tingwan's expression, and added:

"Of course, if you don't want to, we won't invite her."

“If you’re willing, we can better understand your current situation, and your sister can accompany you better in the future.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a little uneasy, as if he were experiencing the feeling of a parent taking on a role...

However, having already said it, Jiang Yubai could only bite the bullet and wait for Lin Tingwan's reaction.

Lin Tingwan's gaze lingered on his face for a moment before gently turning to her sister standing beside her, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Lin Jianxia had no time to care about the novel in her hands at the moment, and looked at her younger sister with some nervousness.

Finally, Lin Tingwan nodded silently.

Jiang Yubai breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone became more relaxed:

"Okay, okay, your sister and I are going downstairs for a late-night snack. Do you want to come? Grilled chicken wings, grilled lamb skewers, grilled fish—I'll buy you whatever you want."

This time, Lin Tingwan refused quickly, shaking her head to indicate that she would not go.

Sigh... the food-lure method failed...

Jiang Yubai felt a little regretful, but he didn't insist. He stood up and said:

"Okay, I'll bring you something delicious later."

Watching Jiang Yubai leave, Lin Jianxia looked at the novel in her hand again, hesitated for a moment, and then handed the book to her younger sister.

"Wanwan, there are some things you absolutely must not learn, those are things only couples can do."

After giving a few more instructions, Lin Jianxia waved to Lin Tingwan:

"I brought you something delicious, sister."
