Sister, can I be a maid too?

“Look, we’ve only studied for a little over an hour at noon, and Tingwan has already realized the difference in our teaching levels.”

"?"

Lin Jianxia's eyes widened, and she said angrily:

"Is that why you came?!"

“Otherwise what?” Jiang Yubai said matter-of-factly. “Then why do you think it is?”

That's because—

Lin Jianxia was about to speak when she suddenly pursed her lips tightly.

What if... it's because Wanwan wants to spend more time with Jiang Yubai?

Compared to that reason, the explanation of "differences in teaching quality" seems more acceptable...

"Why?" Jiang Yubai raised an eyebrow.

"It's nothing," Lin Jianxia said expressionlessly, turning her face away. "Then, Mr. Jiang, may you go in and begin your lecture?"

Oh? Still being stubborn?

"You're not convinced, are you?"

Jiang Yubai turned to Lin Tingwan, speaking in a gentle and persuasive tone.

"Lin Tingwan, is it because your sister isn't a very good teacher that you suddenly decided to study with us?"

Lin Tingwan blinked, quickly wrote something down, and handed it to the two of them.

Lin Jianxia's heart suddenly jumped to her throat. She looked up anxiously and saw a line of small characters written on it.

"It's boring to be alone in the room."

Seemingly feeling that her expression wasn't clear enough, the girl put away her notebook and added another sentence:

"My sister is here."

Seeing this, Lin Jianxia finally breathed a sigh of relief.

That's right! How could Wanwan possibly come in just because... just because she wanted to spend more time with that annoying guy?

She raised an eyebrow, looked at Jiang Yubai who looked puzzled, and said with a hint of smugness:

"Teacher Jiang, it seems this isn't your overly excellent teaching level."

Jiang Yubai frowned, still unwilling to give up, and asked:

"Well... Lin Tingwan, if you're being threatened, just nod. Don't worry, I'll stop your sister for you."

Lin Jianxia slapped him on the shoulder and shoved him into the study in a huff:

"I already told you it's because of me, your older sister! Stop talking nonsense and go inside to do your problems!"

Jiang Yubai sighed, turned around and walked inside with a hint of regret.

That......

He turned his head and glanced at the girl behind him.

Then why...didn't you come before?

However, this doubt only lingered in my mind for a moment before quickly dissipating.

The three of them sat in a row at the desk as usual, with Lin Tingwan on the left, Lin Jianxia on the right, and Jiang Yubai sandwiched between the two of them.

Although it was still as crowded as ever, at least they had the experience from lunchtime, so their movements were much more natural.

As for Lin Tingwan...

This is a creature that can rightfully ask for a hug, so what's wrong with sitting a little closer?

In the evening, the intensity of studying suddenly increased.

Besides the homework assigned by the school, Jiang Yubai and Lin Jianxia each had to do two test papers, not to mention going over these papers with each other.

By the time today's tasks were completed, it was already well past nine o'clock in the evening.

Jiang Yubai moved the chair away, lay back on the double bed behind him, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"My head hurts so much..." he complained, drawing out the words. "There's just too much to memorize for Chinese and English!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the sheets beside him suddenly sink in, and then the familiar scent of lavender wafted from the side.

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

Lin Jianxia tidied up the test papers on the table, letting out a helpless sigh:

"Physics and math are clearly harder, okay? They only give you a few formulas, but the question types are ever-changing, and you have to figure them out yourself."

She spoke for a while but didn't hear Jiang Yubai reply, which made her a little strange, so she turned her head to look.

When she saw the scene before her, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

Jiang Yubai was lying on his back on the bed, eyes closed, breathing evenly; it was unclear whether he was asleep or not.

And on the other side of the bed—

Lin Tingwan had also lay down on her side at some point, about an arm's length away from Jiang Yubai, her eyes closed, her expression quiet and gentle.

What?!

Lin Jianxia subconsciously wanted to call her younger sister.

Wanwan, how could you just lie down in someone else's bed like that?!

But the words caught in my throat...

Lin Tingwan's quiet and peaceful rest... made her reluctant to disturb her.

Only three soft breaths remained in the room.

Lin Jianxia watched with a complicated expression, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind...

Or... should I lie down for a bit too?

But the thought was quickly suppressed – no, no, Wanwan doesn't have that many scruples, what would it mean if I lay down on her?

"......"

But... that soft bed looks so tempting, it must be so comfortable to lie on...

Besides, it's not like we're sharing a blanket; we're just taking a short break after studying.

Jiang Yubai... seems to be asleep too, right?

-----------------

Jiang Yubai is panicking right now.

I was just taking a break because I was tired from sitting for a while, Lin Tingwan, why did you lie down too?!

Your sister is still watching from the side!

Helpless, Jiang Yubai could only close his eyes tightly and pretend that he knew nothing.

Anyway, Lin Jianxia should find out soon.

When the time comes, she will pull Lin Tingwan up, then pretend to have just woken up, and just show a slightly puzzled expression.

perfect!

"Physics and math are clearly harder, okay? They only give you a few formulas, but the question types are ever-changing, and you have to figure them out yourself."

Lin Jianxia's sigh came from the desk.

Jiang Yu and Bai Chun pretended not to hear, closing their eyes and becoming indifferent to worldly affairs.

Soon, soon, Lin Jianxia should realize something is wrong.

But after waiting for a while, the expected angry "Wanwan!" did not come.

Just as Jiang Yubai was feeling somewhat puzzled, and even considered squinting to see what was going on—

On the soft bed, the familiar feeling of sinking in came for the second time.

This time it's the other side.

That wonderful lavender scent... seems to have become even stronger.

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

What the hell?!

Why are you lying down too?!

You two are truly twins! One of you lies down and falls fast asleep, and the other wants to try it too, right?

Why don't you try hugging Xia every night, instead of just listening to her?

Oh, I didn't know that Xia usually cooks next to me.

Jiang Yubai felt utterly hopeless and sighed heavily in his heart.

Chapter 91 Lin Tingwan is eating barbecue

With a loud 'gurgle' from his stomach, Jiang Yubai finally couldn't keep up the act any longer.

He propped himself up and looked to his left and right.

Lin Tingwan and Lin Jianxia were lying on either side of him, their eyes closed, sleeping peacefully and obediently, their postures perfectly aligned, like mirror images.

Jiang Yubai's lips twitched, and he said irritably:

"Wake up, wake up!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the two sisters murmured and opened their eyes one after the other, both still wearing a bewildered expression as if they had just woken up.

"what happened?"

Lin Jianxia rubbed her eyes and sat up, her voice muffled, looking like she hadn't woken up yet.

Jiang Yubai glanced at the two of them sideways.
