Reborn to Make Games: My Girlfriend is a Game Streamer
Chapter 122 Sister-in-law
Chapter 122 Sister-in-law
"No, I just finished and I'm resting." Chen Jing put her phone on the table and rubbed her eyes.
"Then get some rest. You've worked very hard at school, so you should rest properly when you get home."
Zhou Xiulan looked at her daughter with great satisfaction.
According to the cousin of the two children who taught at the county high school and had named Chen Bainian, Chen Jing's scores in the first and second mock exams during her senior year of high school gave her a very high chance of getting into Zhijiang University, and she also had a chance of getting into the two universities in Beijing that all students in the country dream of.
"I know, Mom," Chen Jing replied obediently.
"Misunderstanding," Zhou Xiulan replied, not saying anything more, as saying more would only put pressure on her.
She paused for a moment, then asked anyway, "Your brother said he'd call tonight, but it's so late, why hasn't he called yet?"
Chen Jing knew what her mother was thinking.
When my parents came back from the crab pond in the afternoon, they ran into a college student who was returning to the village for the festival. He said that his brother had opened a game company in Lin'an and become a boss.
Her parents didn't believe her at first, but when they came back and asked her, she told them what had happened.
After all, my brother said he would call home tonight.
"My brother's company is having a celebration party tonight, and he probably drank too much," Chen Jing explained. "You know how much he can drink."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiulan found it reasonable.
She knew her son had a low alcohol tolerance.
"Then let's call again tomorrow," she replied, then lowered her voice, "By the way, remember to ask about that neighbor your brother mentioned last time."
"Okay, Mom."
"Okay, then you should go to sleep early." Zhou Xiulan turned around and walked out, gently closing the door behind her.
The room fell silent again.
Chen Jing unlocked her phone and opened the group photo.
The photo loaded, and she zoomed in.
Right in the middle of the first row, next to her brother, stood a girl.
Navy blue shirt, light blue jeans —
She and the man next to her were dressed like they were wearing matching outfits.
She zoomed in on the photo again and again, staring at the face for a long time.
Her hair was in a high ponytail, and she was smiling.
Chen Jing confirmed that this was indeed the anchor "Twelfth Floor".
She stared at her phone screen for two seconds, stunned.
The business partner in the scandal lives on the twelfth floor, and there's also a female neighbor there.
She suddenly became a little confused.
If these two are the same person, then there's no problem.
But if there are two people—
Surely my brother wouldn't start going astray just because he's made a lot of money.
Chen Jing stared at the group photo for a while, lost in thought, before finally putting away her phone, washing up, and going to bed.
After turning off the lights, she stared at the ceiling for a long time.
I need to ask my brother about the situation tomorrow. If it really is two people—
Chen Jing felt this was not a good thing —
The moonlight streamed in quietly from the window and fell on her pillow.
Chen Jing stared at the ceiling, her mind a jumble of thoughts. She didn't know how much time had passed before she finally drifted off to sleep.
The next morning, Mingchun Garden 1202.
Sunlight streamed into the living room through the balcony windows.
Chen Bainian was fast asleep on the sofa.
The cold shower last night did not calm him down.
He lay down on the cramped sofa and tossed and turned for what seemed like an eternity before finally falling asleep.
She's still sleeping soundly right now.
In the bedroom, Jiang Yiting woke up first.
Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains that hadn't been properly drawn last night, illuminating her face.
Jiang Yiting opened her eyes groggily, shielding her eyes from the sunlight with her hand, as memories of last night began to return little by little.
Thinking of those scenes and her own boldness, Jiang Yiting's face suddenly flushed.
She turned over and listened to the sounds coming from the living room.
It's very quiet.
I don't know if he was still asleep or if he went back to prepare breakfast.
Just then, a faint sound caused by a tremor came from the direction of the living room.
Jiang Yiting hesitated for a moment, then got up and left the bedroom.
She glanced at Chen Bainian on the sofa; he was breathing evenly and sleeping soundly.
Jiang Yiting chuckled softly, muttering, "He said he'd come and take care of me, but he's sleeping even more soundly than I am."
The vibration was coming from his phone, which was on the coffee table.
Jiang Yiting glanced at the screen.
Caller ID note: Jingjing.
Jiang Yiting was stunned for a moment.
When I was having dinner at Chen Bainian's house before, he answered a phone call from his sister, and it seemed like she called him "Jingjing".
Therefore, this call was probably made by Chen Bainian's sister, Chen Jing.
The phone is still vibrating.
Jiang Yiting glanced at the person sleeping soundly on the sofa, then at her phone, and hesitated for a moment.
She then picked up her phone, went to the balcony, and pressed the call button.
"Feed?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, probably because of her unfamiliar female voice.
Then came a young woman's voice, her tone hesitant and uncertain: "—Sister-in-law?"
Upon hearing this address, Jiang Yiting almost choked on her own saliva.
"I'm Chen Jing, Chen Bainian's sister." The person on the other end quickly explained, her voice clearly showing embarrassment, "I, I might have dialed the wrong number, I, I'll hang up now—"
"Your brother is still asleep." Jiang Yiting spoke after composing herself, her voice much calmer than she had expected. "He went to bed late last night. Should I wake him?"
"No, no, no." Chen Jing quickly shook her head in response, "I just, uh—last night he said he was going to call home, but his parents didn't hear it, so he asked me to ask—if he's still sleeping, then don't wake him, let him continue sleeping."
But then he remembered that he was on the phone and the other person couldn't see him, so he gently patted his head.
She was completely taken aback by the sudden female voice, feeling as if she had interrupted her brother's good time.
There was silence on both ends of the phone call.
The feeling of this silence is subtle.
Both sides were waiting for the other to speak, but neither knew what to say.
Finally, Chen Jing spoke first: "Um—sister-in-law, I—"
"Jiang Yiting," Jiang Yiting interrupted her, "call me, um—"
She thought for a moment, then continued, "You can call me Sister Tingting."
"Sister Tingting," Chen Jing readily agreed, her tone slightly more relaxed, "Did my brother drink too much last night?"
Jiang Yiting thought for a moment and explained, "He didn't drink much. I drank too much at their celebration party. I live next door to him, and he slept on my sofa to take care of me."
"Oh." Upon hearing this explanation, Chen Jing instantly connected all the dots.
The twelfth-floor neighbor who was attending the celebration banquet was drunk.
It's one person.
That's good, that's good.
After another two seconds of silence, Chen Jing finally spoke: "Then I'll hang up now. If my brother wakes up, have him call home. My parents are still waiting."
"it is good."
"Um—Sister Tingting." Before hanging up, Chen Jing suddenly spoke again, her words coming out a little fast, "I watched your live stream, it was great. That's all, bye!"
The phone hangs up.
Jiang Yiting stood there, stared at her phone screen for two seconds, and then couldn't help but chuckle softly.
