My sister never calls me brother.

“You…” Zhou Han couldn’t explain. Would he be labeled mentally ill if he said it?

He looked at Miyazaki Airi, wanting to retort, but inadvertently glanced at her thin, cherry-red lips a few more times. His face flushed, and he turned to look at the ceiling, saying, "Um... I'm sorry about today."

"Why the sudden apology?" Miyazaki Airi asked, momentarily dazed.

"I couldn't help myself today, I'm sorry about what happened last night... you know what I mean..." Zhou Han said haltingly in a very awkward tone.

"You'd better forget about that, or you'll regret it! That was just a way to comfort yourself. If you misunderstood anything..." Miyazaki Airi's face turned red, and she frowned as she thought for a moment before saying, "Anyway, you're disgusting! Humph!"

Zhou Han was speechless after being rebuked by Miyazaki Airi, and was afraid of her. He waved his hand and said, "Fine, fine! I've already forgotten about it! If you mention it again, I'll jump into the river and kill myself."

"Hmph!" Miyazaki Airi snorted coldly, then suddenly remembered the important matter and asked, "By the way, is the class president willing to help?"

“He agreed,” Zhou Han replied.

"Really? The class monitor has an excellent character. Judging from his words, he would agree to help anyone who asked him for help," Miyazaki Airi said casually.

"Oh? You talk like you know him a lot, like you like him?" Zhou Han said jokingly.

“Well…” Miyazaki Airi thought for a moment blankly and said, “If he confessed to me, I might say yes.”

"Uh..." Zhou Han felt inexplicably angry upon hearing this, and said sarcastically with a hint of sourness, "That's true~ Gu Bairen is handsome, has a good temper, and is good at both arts and sports. He's practically a one-in-a-million man~"

"Huh!? What kind of tone is that? Is there something you're unhappy about?" Miyazaki Airi felt disgusted.

"Tch!" Zhou Han said with a dark face, "Anyway, if he confesses his feelings, I'll be the first to disagree and I'll beat him to a pulp!"

"Why are you so domineering? It's my freedom to date whoever I want, what's it to you?" Miyazaki Airi frowned, feeling that Zhou Han was being unreasonable.

"I..." Zhou Han was speechless, but then he remembered that he was the eldest brother, so he continued, "I am nominally your older brother. As the eldest son, I have an obligation to consider your happiness. If I am not satisfied, there is no need to reason with me, I will beat them all to death!"

"What brother? What a joke, pfft—" Miyazaki Airi covered her mouth and laughed out loud.

Zhou Han felt her dignity had vanished, and said with utter despair, "Don't laugh..."

"You're not a siscon, are you?" Miyazaki Airi still wanted to laugh when she remembered what she had just said.

Zhou Han's expression darkened, and she said very seriously—

No...

Night quietly descended.

Elizabeth glowed white in the darkness, floating in front of Zhou Han, her golden data cicada wings shimmering slightly.

"Are you really planning to do this?" Elizabeth asked with a strange expression. "This time you don't have any ulterior motives, you're just simply spying on privacy."

“That’s right. Gu Bai seemed hesitant today. I felt like he and Wang Qianqian were hiding some secret.” Zhou Han looked at Elizabeth and said in a low voice, “It’s just a glance. I’m not going to tell anyone.”

"Fine, I'll do whatever you say." Elizabeth sighed and snapped her fingers.

Pale blue projections appeared in frames before Zhou Han's eyes, filling the entire room, with information flowing endlessly like a river.

Zhou Han saw all the information about Gu Bai and Wang Qianqian from birth to the present.

Zhou Han quickly browsed the information, picking out the sensitive details one by one, and comparing Gu Bai's and Wang Qianqian's information in turn.

After a long time, I finally learned some things.

Zhou Han leaned back in her computer chair, rubbing her Jingming acupoint, and sighed—

"So that's what their relationship is all about. What a small world."

Chapter 114 How to Get into Character

Around 5 a.m.

The sky was just beginning to lighten, still dim and gloomy.

Wearing her pajamas, Miyazaki Airi slowly pushed open Zhou Han's door and tiptoed in.

She glanced around with a scrutinizing look, frowned at the messy room, and complained inwardly, "Really, can't they take the time to tidy up?"

Airi Miyazaki deliberately came here barefoot because she was worried that her pink slippers would make noise, but now, seeing Zhou Han's room, she felt a sudden pang of regret.

After much hesitation, she realized that what she was about to do was part of the plan, and she had no choice but to do it.

Left with no other choice, she cautiously approached Zhou Han's bedside like a kitten.

Looking at his sprawled-out sleeping posture, Miyazaki Airi shook her head silently, revealing a disappointed expression, thinking to herself, "His sleeping posture is really ugly."

She began searching for the alarm clock with her bright eyes.

But his eyes inexplicably lingered on Zhou Han's small tent a few more times.

Two blushes suddenly appeared on Miyazaki Airi's calm face. She covered her glasses in embarrassment and anger, cursing Zhou Han in her heart.

After calming down, I patted my chest and reassured myself, "It's okay, it's okay. I learned in physiology class that this is a normal phenomenon."

Miyazaki Airi's rosy cheeks hadn't returned to normal yet, but she continued searching for Zhou Han's alarm clock.

After a few minutes.

Finally, the alarm clock was found on the side of Zhou Han's pillow.

Miyazaki Airi breathed a sigh of relief and quietly climbed onto Zhou Han's bed.

Although she tried her best to avoid making any noise, her knees inevitably creaked when they hit the bed.

Airi Miyazaki stiffened, tightly closing her eyes, her heart filled with anxiety. "He...he won't be woken up, will he? What am I going to do if he is?" she thought.

The room was quiet, with only Zhou Han's regular breathing.

She secretly opened one eye and glanced nervously at Zhou Han, who was still fast asleep and didn't react at all.

She blinked mischievously twice, deliberately shifting her body and making sounds to see if Zhou Han would react.

However—nothing was different; Zhou Han slept soundly.

Miyazaki Airi smiled slightly, a hint of a smile playing on her lips. A sudden realization dawned on her: "Right, this guy's a bit of an idiot. It's normal that he sleeps like a log. Looks like I've been overthinking things."

She began to act freely, leaning forward without any hesitation to reach for the alarm clock.

Then the time was adjusted to 8:00 AM.

Airi Miyazaki looked at the alarm clock and nodded. It seemed the mission was accomplished.

She recalled what Lin Nianwei had said after Zhou Han left yesterday—

The club activity room of the Seigaku Office.

Zhou Han had just left, and the number of people in the room had decreased from five to four.

Confused, Miyazaki Airi looked at Lin Nianwei and asked, "Is it really okay not to let him hear about the rest of the plan?"

"Hmm." Lin Nianwei hummed in agreement, nodded, and said softly, "He can't really help with the rest, and besides..."

Lin Nianwei hesitated, looking somewhat unsure of what to say.

"What's wrong?" Miyazaki Airi asked curiously.

“What we need to do next is to make full use of our past relationships. Unexpected events may occur. For someone who is so expressive, it’s better to keep it a secret because…” Lin Nianwei’s eyes flickered a few times. After thinking for a few seconds, she said calmly, “To move others, acting must be genuine. This is a performance. How do you get an actor into character? The best way is to make him believe that these things are real.”

"So that's how it is!" Miyazaki Airi suddenly realized, thinking to herself, "It's really easy to tell what that idiot is thinking just by looking at his face."

“However…” Lin Nianwei’s eyes flickered a few times, as if she was troubled by something, and she said hesitantly, “If he succeeds in persuading Gu Bai, I am still a little worried.”

"What's there to worry about?" Miyazaki Airi didn't quite understand. They had already convinced her, so what was there to worry about?

“I don’t know how Gu Bai will repair his relationships. If possible…” Lin Nianwei pondered for a moment, then lowered her head slightly, “It would be best if Zhou Han wasn’t present when Gu Bai is repairing his relationships.”

"Why?" Miyazaki Airi didn't understand why it had to be so complicated.

“Because there’s a possible method that he would find hard to accept.” Lin Nianwei frowned, pursed her thin lips, and said, “Although the possibility is slim, it is the most effective way to repair the relationship. I’m not sure if Gu Bai will use it.”

Miyazaki Airi pondered, carefully considering in her mind, what was the most effective way to repair it?

------

Zhou Han, still half asleep, kicked off the blanket and rolled over.

Airi Miyazaki has already thought of the most effective method.

As Lin Nianwei said, it was indeed very effective, but that method was practically tantamount to ruining one's image.

Although the chances of Gu Bai adopting it are very small.

But Miyazaki Airi still chose to take precautions and decided to make Zhou Han late today.

After setting the alarm, she crouched down and quietly put the alarm clock back in its original place.

After putting it away, I was just about to get out of bed when Zhou Han, who is a restless sleeper, hugged me.

"Ah—" Miyazaki Airi exclaimed, quickly covering her mouth to avoid waking Zhou Han.

In his sleep, Zhou Han used Miyazaki Airi as his blanket, turning to his side and hugging her tightly, pressing his legs against her.

Airi Miyazaki frowned, covered her mouth, and looked astonished.

She secretly lamented her bad luck, wishing she had tucked the blanket into his arms beforehand.

Zhou Han's hands also wandered and touched Miyazaki Airi's chest.

"Ugh!!!" Miyazaki Airi was startled, her face turned red, and if she hadn't covered her mouth, she probably would have screamed by now.

Zhou Hai unconsciously scratched at Miyazaki Airi's chest. Even though he had gotten a great deal, a hint of discomfort showed on his sleeping face.

"Hmm~" Miyazaki Airi let out a soft exclamation, her face turning bright red in an instant, and she covered her mouth and tightly closed her eyes.

Even through the thin fabric of her pajamas, Zhou Han's two touches inexplicably made her body sensitive, as if an electric current was coursing through her entire body.

Being groped and unable to scream left Miyazaki Airi with mixed feelings, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She didn't feel any disgust, just a lot of anger.

Zhou Han's rhythmic breaths gently brushed against Miyazaki Airi's ear, making her feel a little ticklish.

She secretly opened her eyes and looked at Zhou Han's profile, which was so close to hers, with a strange gaze. She rubbed her thighs a couple of times, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Zhou Han, with his hand on Miyazaki Airi's chest, frowned and muttered to himself in his sleep, expressing his feelings, "Wash...a washboard..."

Upon hearing Zhou Han's remark, Miyazaki Airi's face darkened, and she glared at him with eyes that seemed to spit fire.

Airi Miyazaki really wants to beat him so badly that he can't take care of himself, only then can she vent her anger.

She was already angry enough about being wronged in silence, but having to listen to Zhou Han's malicious complaints made her feel utterly ashamed and indignant.

Just as Miyazaki Airi was angrily complaining in her heart, Zhou Han, probably feeling uncomfortable hugging her, lifted his leg...

He kicked Miyazaki Airi off the bed, rolled over, and continued to sleep soundly.
