Sister, can I become a maid too?

Chapter 145: Choose Me or Wanwan?

"..."

"..."

Their eyes met, and Jiang Yubai's expression was rather indescribable, while Lin Jianxia's expression was slightly blank, as if she hadn't quite come to her senses yet.

He even felt the little hand on his stomach gently press down and then stroke around it.

...The itching was so intense that he almost couldn't hold back.

"Have you touched enough?"

Jiang Yubai's tone was subtle.

Blinking her eyes, Lin Jianxia seemed to suddenly wake up, her ears turning bright red, and she quickly pulled her hand away.

"Now you know I was telling the truth, right?"

Jiang Yubai spoke softly.

Lin Jianxia was in no mood to answer his question. After realizing what she had done, she felt like her brain was about to shut down.

—Lin! See you! Summer!

—What the hell are you doing?!

She suppressed her embarrassment and tried to focus her attention elsewhere...

Actually, actually, I just felt that his stomach was only slightly bulging, but it actually seemed like he really had abdominal pain... Stop! Hold on!!

Lin Jianxia was in a state of utter confusion, while Jiang Yubai opened his mouth, hesitated, and finally couldn't hold back:

"No, you actually touched it?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia's barely suppressed embarrassment instantly exploded.

She glared at Jiang Yubai, snatched the draft paper, and wrote:

"Didn't you tell me to touch you!?"

...I told you to touch it, so you touched it... Okay, okay, then this one's on me.

Jiang Yubai smacked his lips and wrote again:

"I told you to feel around outside the sweater, so why... are you putting your hand inside?"

Lin Jianxia looked at the words and was speechless with bitterness.

—Back then, who would have thought of that? Who could feel a round belly through a sweater?

—That was just a sudden, impulsive decision...

How could she possibly say those words?

So Lin Jianxia could only cover her bright red ears, turn her head and stare intently at her textbook, and simply start pretending to be dead.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yubai immediately burst into laughter.

How strange! The little hedgehog has evolved into an ostrich.

He didn't really feel anything special; the biggest feeling was just a little itchy, plus he really didn't expect her to actually reach out.

"Lin Jianxia?"

"Lin Jianxia?"

"Summer, let's meet?"

Jiang Yubai called out to him in a low voice a few times, using all the nicknames he had used, but there was still no response.

Left with no other option, he grabbed his notebook and tried a different approach:

"By the way, you've probably distributed all your breakfast orders by now, right?"

When he came in, he made a point of checking, and Lin Jianxia's schoolbag was flat.

Surely it can't be that it was confiscated along with him...

Lin Jianxia glanced at the draft that had been passed to her, and seeing that it was official business, hesitated for a few seconds before finally raising her little head out of the sand.

"I've sent all the girls' messages..."

"Seriously, does this mean we really can't bring things like steamed buns and mantou anymore?"

Jiang Yubai didn't bring up the previous topic again and continued writing:

"Of course we can't bring them anymore. After all, the school rules say that we can't bring outside food. The teachers have turned a blind eye before, but this time, sixty or seventy buns is a bit too much."

Lin Jianxia's reply was quite indignant:

"What's wrong with that? The food in the cafeteria isn't even good, so why can't we take out our food?"

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yubai chuckled.

This guy isn't speaking up for the students staying on campus at all; he's just annoyed that his part-time job was cut off.

He twirled his pen and explained:

"Actually, there wasn't such a school rule originally. It's just that a few years ago, there was a dirty food stall outside, and the students brought their food in and shared it, resulting in a class of students suffering from food poisoning."

"Aside from the food stall being arrested, the student who brought the food in probably doesn't bear much responsibility."

"The schools fared much worse; not only were they criticized by parents for inadequate supervision, but the principals almost lost their positions."

"So... the predecessors cut down trees, and the successors were exposed to the scorching sun, and that's how this school rule came about."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia immediately lost her composure and wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.

She paused for a moment, then continued writing:

"Well... I'll give you my share of the money later. You're going to get a refund after class, right?"

—What difference does it make over such a small amount of money as you?

Jiang Yubai was somewhat amused and exasperated, but he didn't refuse, simply replying with an "ok".

Okay, let her pay twenty or thirty yuan, and then split the one hundred yuan in disaster relief grain given by Director Wang.

Beautiful~

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

After the minor incident, Jiang Yubai's life returned to its usual rhythm.

After having breakfast at home, I go to school for morning reading, classes, and practice problems; after school, I chat with Lin Tingwan for a while and give her a hug.

We would study together after dinner, and if we got hungry, the three of us would go out for a late-night snack. Everything was the same as always.

Of course, we can no longer bring breakfast.

However, the school seemed to have listened to Jiang Yubai's advice and hired a new pastry chef. The steamed buns and mantou were made in a very professional manner, and the taste was just as good as those outside. The variety of pastries also increased.

As a result, the students' initial complaints gradually subsided, and they happily flocked to the cafeteria.

In the end, only Lin Jianxia was left with a gloomy face. Every day when she went to school with Jiang Yubai, she couldn't help but glance at the breakfast shop across from the school gate, looking pitiful and longing.

—They're probably reminiscing about the good old days when they had thirty or forty yuan of pocket money a day.

As for learning...

As college entrance exam registration ended, the atmosphere in the class became more and more somber each day.

The playful banter of the past has gradually been replaced by people burying themselves in studying and resting on their desks, with only the sound of turning pages and pens scratching on paper filling the air.

Thanks to the supervision of a certain little hedgehog, Jiang Yubai never missed a day of test papers and vocabulary practice.

I memorized words, forgot them, and then memorized them again. After going back and forth like this, I actually managed to master almost all of my high school vocabulary.

In the latest monthly exam, Jiang Yubai's English score has exceeded 110.

Lin Jianxia's progress, however, was a bit slower—she had recently become obsessed with mechanics problems, spending her days burying herself in drawing force analysis diagrams on draft paper, her brows furrowed tightly.

Lin Tingwan, on the other hand, is getting better and better. Apart from being perfectly fine going out for late-night snacks, she also has no problems going to school.

Aside from still having to stay by Jiang Yubai's side, the nervous state he used to be in whenever he saw people has rarely appeared anymore.

Dr. Su had come to see them twice during this period and said there was nothing wrong, which put Jiang Yubai and Lin Jianxia at ease.

Seeing that Lin Tingwan's condition was improving day by day, Jiang Yubai and the two sisters discussed it and decided to slightly increase the frequency of Lin Tingwan's school attendance.

Five days a week, the older sister works three days and the younger sister works two days.

If there are no problems throughout the first semester of senior year, Lin Jianxia will be transferred to our school in the second semester.

Jiang Yubai was initially worried that Lin Jianxia had registered for the college entrance examination at No. 5 Middle School, and whether there would be any problems with the subsequent transfer exam.

But after carefully inquiring with the homeroom teacher and the academic affairs office, I learned that as long as it doesn't involve moving to another province, transferring schools during the senior year of high school will not affect my college entrance examination registration and eligibility, which put my mind at ease.

......

And in these monotonous days, the day that everyone has been looking forward to the most in the second half of the year has finally arrived.

study.

After explaining the last question, Jiang Yubai let out a long sigh of relief and looked around at the two sisters who were packing their things.

I said...

He leaned back in his chair and spoke lazily.

"Weren't you two discussing who should go tomorrow? Have you decided yet?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia paused, her expression immediately becoming conflicted.

Lin Tingwan, standing to the side, glanced at Jiang Yubai, then at her own sister, and picked up her little notebook.

"Go, sister."

Jiang Yubai turned his head to look over:

"you go?"

"What am I supposed to do there..." Lin Jianxia grumbled. "New Year's Eve party... I've seen them before, I should go watch it tonight!"

Jiang Yubai glanced at her a few times and chuckled:

"Hey Lin Jianxia, ​​you've said 'It's not like I haven't seen it before,' so you're not sneaking back to the classroom to study again, are you?"

"......"

Lin Jianxia remained silent.

Seeing this, Jiang Yubai looked around and said helplessly:

"So this is the third year already, and neither of you has watched a single New Year's Eve gala?"

"There's nothing to see here," Lin Jianxia muttered. "The programs they rehearsed were either poetry recitations or large group singing, so childish. I have absolutely no interest in them."

"Not even a little bit interested?" Jiang Yubai looked back with interest. "Then how come you even know the rehearsal content?"

"...Jiang Yubai, you're so annoying!!"

The little hedgehog became angry and embarrassed.

Lin Tingwan held up her little notebook again:

"Go, sister."

"No, I'm not interested. I'll go later," Lin Jianxia wrinkled her nose. "The New Year's Eve party is a once-in-a-lifetime event. If you miss it, you won't get another chance."

"No, sister and Jiang Yu should go for nothing."

"What does it have to do with him? I'm serious, I'm telling you, go!"

It was rare for the two sisters to disagree, but Jiang Yubai gradually came to understand.

Lin Tingwan felt that the New Year's Eve party itself wasn't anything special, but seeing that her sister seemed interested, she wanted her to go.

Lin Jianxia wanted to go herself, but since her younger sister had almost never participated in such activities before, she wanted her to have a good experience in her final year of high school.

The two sisters argued back and forth, each writing something down, while Jiang Yubai said helplessly:

"It's just a New Year's Eve party, why are you arguing about it for so long?"

Seeing him speak, Lin Jianxia pursed her lips and suddenly tossed the decision-making power to him:

"Hey, Jiang Yubai, tell me, who are you going to the New Year's Eve party with?"

Seeing this, Lin Tingwan put down her notebook and looked at Jiang Yubai with a serious expression, indicating that she also wanted him to make the decision.

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

Wait, why did you suddenly throw the ball to me?

Those who know you both want the other to go might think you're fighting over someone's affections, forcing me to choose one or something...

Besides, if I choose the younger sister, the older sister will be unhappy; if I choose the older sister, the younger sister will be unhappy. How can I choose?

After all, the sports meet lasts for two days, which allows the two sisters to each go for one day.

But the New Year's Eve party only lasts one night, how can this be—

His thoughts suddenly paused, as if he had thought of something, and he thoughtfully touched his chin.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lin Jianxia pouted:

"Hey, didn't you say 'it's just a New Year's Eve party'? Hurry up and choose."

"I'm warning you, Wanwan has never been to a New Year's Eve party, but I at least caught a glimpse of the rehearsal."

Lin Tingwan blinked and then held up her little notebook again:

"No, I'll go, sister."

Seeing that the two were about to start again, Jiang Yubai quickly called for a stop:

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Meeting the sisters' gazes, he coughed lightly and said:

"Since you both want the other to go, then...why don't you both go?"
