Wen Shu complained, "So why did you have to make this trip? You could have just called."

"You really don't want to see me?"

"Sis... what are you saying? How could I not want to see you!"

"Then why did you avoid me during the Chinese New Year?"

"That was..."

Wen Shu was helpless and speechless.

After walking for a while, Wenjing suddenly asked a serious question.

"Xiao Shu".

"Ok?"

"Have you been dating lately?"

Wen Shu briefly looked flustered, but quickly returned to normal.

"No, sis, who told you that?"

"Nobody told me, I just guessed."

Wenjing analyzed seriously, "You've been replying to my messages very slowly lately, saying you're busy after just a few words, which wasn't the case before. I asked your sister Yanxi, and she said you're most likely bewitched by a man."

Wen Shu paused for two seconds, then smiled again.

"Sis, you're overthinking it. I've just been very busy lately, with club activities, major courses, and a ton of homework. I'm so busy I don't have time to date.

"Really?"

"real!"

Wen Shu released Wen Jing's arm, pointed to the intersection ahead, and tried to change the subject.

"Sis, let's go that way. There's a lake over there; it's beautiful in winter."

"Oh……"

Wenjing did not refuse and followed her sister around the corner.

The two strolled slowly along the lakeside, and Wenjing once again made a suggestion.

"Xiao Shu, let's have dinner together tonight. Your sister Hua Qing will be there too, and so will your brother-in-law."

Wen Shu slowed her pace, turned around to meet Wen Jing's gaze, and looked slightly embarrassed.

"Sis, I think I'll pass. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to be a third wheel while you guys are eating together."

Wenjing gazed quietly into her younger sister's eyes.

Those eyes were very similar to hers, but at this moment, they seemed to be dodging and running away.

Wenjing couldn't explain it clearly in a short time, but she could sense it.

"It's just a meal, what's with all this talk about being a third wheel? Your brother-in-law and Sister Hua Qing are family."

“I know he’s not an outsider.”

Wen Shu continued to avoid Wen Jing's gaze, turning her attention to the lake instead: "But I really have something to do tonight. There's an event at the club that I need to prepare for, so I can't leave."

What activity?

"It's... a photography exhibition, organized by our association. I'm a staff member, so I have to go and set up the venue in advance."

Wenjing didn't say anything.

Wen Shu tried to use a smile to cover up her lack of confidence.

"Sis, don't overthink it. After I'm done with this busy period, I'll come over for dinner this weekend, okay?"

A few seconds later, Wenjing sighed softly.

"Xiao Shu".

"Ok?"

"Are you... hiding something from me?"

Wen Shu's face showed panic again, which was finally noticed by Wen Jing.

"Sis, what are you saying?"

Wen Shu quickened her pace: "What could I possibly be hiding from you?"

"Then why..."

"sister."

Wen Shu interrupted Wen Jing, her tone serious: "I'm really fine. I've just been busy lately. Don't overthink it, okay?"

A cold wind blew across the lake, making my eyes sting.

Wenjing sniffed.

"Xiao Shu, do you... look down on your older sister?"

Wen Shu was stunned.

"Sis, what are you saying?!"

“I said.”

Wenjing asked in a trembling voice, "Do you think my sister looks...ashamed?"

The wind by the lake seemed even colder...

Wen Shu stood there, shocked and heartbroken.

She chose to run away with her sister because she was afraid to face Ding Heng, but she never expected that her sister would misunderstand her meaning like this.

"sister!"

She took a step forward and grasped Wenjing's hand: "How could you think that? You're my sister. No matter what happens, you'll always be my sister."

Wenjing sniffled, looking aggrieved: "Then why... are you avoiding me?"

"I'm not avoiding you."

Wen Shu hesitated, then said, "I just... I just..."

She couldn't explain it, let alone say it.

"What is it?"

"There are just so many things to do!"

Wen Shu took a deep breath, suppressing her surging emotions: "Sister, please don't overthink it, okay? You'll always be my best sister, no one can compare to you."

She gripped Wenjing's hand tightly, trying to prove that she hadn't lied at all.

Wenjing sensed her sister's sincere feelings, but ultimately didn't ask any more questions and realized that she had indeed gone a bit too far.

My sister is already a college student, why am I being so dramatic?

Chapter 304: The Dream Girl Who Has Never Been in Love Since Childhood

In the end, Wen Shu didn't become a third wheel, and Ding Heng, Wen Jing, and Hua Qing spent time together as a trio.

After another night of hard work, Ding Heng confirmed that the two girls were fast asleep and went to the living room alone.

Black Bean was squatting in front of the French windows, swishing its tail, gazing at the night view outside and contemplating its feline existence.

"Black Bean, aren't you asleep yet?"

Black Bean turned around, meowed, and then turned back to continue looking at the night view.

Ding Heng reached out and scratched its chin, and Black Bean immediately purred contentedly, rubbing its head against his palm, just like Zhao Yanxi.

"What are you thinking about in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

"Meow."

"That's true, it's pointless to ask you."

Ding Heng sat down on the sofa and picked up his phone.

The screen lit up, displaying several unread messages from Wen Shu.

[Ding Heng]: Sleeping?

[Lucky Little Shu]: No, I just finished taking a shower.

[Ding Heng]: Did your sister come to see you today?

【Lucky Little Lady】: Hmm.

[Ding Heng]: She's been sullen ever since she came back. What did you say to her?

The other side remained silent for a long time.

【Lucky Little Shu】: [Little Rabbit Sighing.jpg]

[Lucky Little Shu]: Brother-in-law, I think my sister might have misunderstood something.

[Ding Heng]: What's the misunderstanding?

[Lucky Little Shu]: I can't quite explain it... She seems to think I'm avoiding her.

[Ding Heng]: Didn't you avoid her?

This time the silence lasted even longer.

【Lucky Little Lady】: [Little rabbit looking down.jpg]

[Lucky Little Lady]: I guess so...

Ding Heng: Why?

Wen Shu didn't reply to this message.

Ding Heng didn't urge him, and picked up Hei Dou again to stroke him.

Five minutes later, the phone vibrated again.
