In short, Leng Yihan had to use a lot of words to explain that the two of them had come out to find something to eat because they were too lazy to cook at home, and happened to run into them.
Leng Binglan recognized Xue Yunhuang at a glance and politely invited her to their home the next day to celebrate Lin Yin's birthday. Xue Yunhuang was free the next day, so she agreed.
Lin Yin wanted to see what her birthday present was, but Leng Yihan and Han Binglan, the siblings, restrained her. In the end, she gave up and promised to let them see it the next night.
The afternoon of the 24th passed by like any other day. On the 25th, Leng Yihan did not stay at home any longer, but went out shopping alone with Lin Yin, which was a date. She took the opportunity to give Lin Yin a bracelet that she had bought at the jewelry store the day before.
However, it was actually quite difficult for the two of them to go out alone. Why? When Leng Binglan heard that the two of them wanted to go out alone, how could she agree? Wouldn't that be a date? So she tried her best to stop them.
Finally, Leng Yihan made Leng Binglan open up by promising to go out with her alone on her birthday. But...
"Ugh...so annoying..." In the crowd, the blue-haired girl stared blankly at the two people in the distance.
-
"Happy birthday!!!" Everyone in Leng Yihan's home said at the same time.
"Hmm~ Happy birthday to you too, Yihan! Don't forget we were born on the same day, month, and year~" Lin Yin said with a smile to Leng Yihan, who was deliberately downplaying her presence.
"So Yihan shares the same birthday as you." Chen Wei suddenly realized, no wonder there were two cakes.
It must be said that quite a few people attended the couple's birthday party, including Xiao Yulin, Kang Meng, Chen Wei, Ye Zixing, Mo Ruyu, Fei Xue, Leng Yihan's mother, Miao Xingyin, and others.
However, apart from her mother and Lin Yin, who knew that it was also Leng Yihan's birthday today, only they prepared gifts for her. No one else received any, but Leng Yihan didn't really care.
Leng Yihan's final gift was undoubtedly the highlight, so it was the grand finale. After receiving everyone else's gifts, Lin Yin looked excitedly at Leng Yihan, eagerly anticipating the big prize that Leng Yihan would give her.
Leng Yihan returned to her room, took out the bag, and then took out the glass box. The black cloth on it was still on. Although Xiao Yulin and Leng Binglan had prepared it together, they hadn't seen it before and started urging Leng Yihan to take it down.
With considerable pride, I pulled off the black cloth. Inside the glass box, five lifelike little figures stood in the snow. Because the lights were off, the snow ground emitted an eerie glow, adding an indescribable beauty to the entire work.
An excited Lin Yin immediately pounced on Leng Yihan and kissed her on the cheek. In the end, both of them blushed. After receiving the gifts and cutting the cake, the group didn't play any pranks. They chatted about the divine oracle, their daily lives, and then ate the cake.
Midway through, Leng Yihan saw Leng Binglan walk out of the rooftop, took a deep breath, and then went out onto the balcony to see what was going on with her.
"Binglan, what's wrong?" Leng Yihan asked, stuffing a bite of cake into her mouth.
“…Brother.” Leng Binglan lowered her head, and Leng Yihan could not see her expression.
"What's wrong?"
"...Are you dating Lin Yin?"
……
Leng Yihan had never felt so terrified before. Looking into Leng Binglan's lifeless eyes, Leng Yihan forced a smile. "Haha... what a joke... Binglan."
"Why did you lie to me?" Leng Binglan turned around and faced Leng Yihan, questioning her.
"..."
"Leng Yihan," Leng Binglan called out Leng Yihan's full name.
"...Yes, we are dating."
"...Is that so?" Upon hearing Leng Yihan's reply, Leng Binglan lowered her head with a wry smile, but then she raised her head, her eyes unchanged from before, and a perfectly timed smile on her face.
"Then... I wish you happiness. From now on, she's my sister-in-law! She can't be called a wild woman anymore..."
Hearing Leng Binglan's words, Leng Yihan felt for the first time that the person in front of her was so unfamiliar.
……
"How ridiculous I am..." Leng Yihan took a bite of cake and fell into deep thought as she looked at the moonlight.
Postscript
Hello everyone, this is Lu Youmei, a newbie author (it feels so silly, I'll just call myself Fei Mei).
Okay, enough chit-chat, let's get straight to the point (actually, I just want to chat with you guys a bit).
Actually, I really didn't expect this... Hmm, I need to think of a short name for this book, or maybe... let's just call it "Lucky Me". At first, I really never thought I could write 40 words, get a contract, or even be published (hmm, I didn't expect that).
My initial goal was to write the most words in the Shining Star Festival, and I did hold that position for quite a while (although I was later overtaken by two hard-working writers), and I even got my first contract (I was so excited about that for days).
It's even been published now... I never imagined I could do this (after all, it wouldn't have been possible without the support of my readers).
Actually, I did think about giving up halfway through (I'm so prone to being negative), but every time I saw a reader's encouragement or heard a friend's words of encouragement, I couldn't help but perk up and keep going. In the end, I successfully achieved my ultimate goal of getting my book published (laughs).
It seems I've said a lot but haven't gotten to the point. If you, dear readers, like it, please leave a comment! I also hope you'll continue to support me in the upcoming second volume. I'll try my best to bring you an exciting story in the second volume (if you find it enjoyable).
See you in Volume Two!
101. Leaving
After the birthday party ended, everyone left Leng Yihan's house one after another, but her mother stayed behind and celebrated with Leng Yihan again.
Leng Binglan behaved very well, and she also assumed the identity of Leng Yihan's cousin very well. Her mother did not expose her, so she naturally knew who Leng Yihan was trying to hide by having Leng Binglan act as her so-called cousin.
Since Auntie was at home, Leng Binglan and Lin Yin naturally couldn't share a bed with Leng Yihan anymore. So, Mother didn't mind monopolizing her son for one night. When she woke up the next day, Mother was clinging to Leng Yihan like an octopus, and it took a long time to finally get her off.
After Leng Yihan finished washing up and changing her clothes, she found that Leng Binglan had already prepared breakfast for them and was sitting at the table looking at her phone, waiting for them to come and eat.
"Good morning, brother!" Leng Binglan's smile was bright, but for some reason, Leng Yihan felt a little unfamiliar with him.
"Ah? Um... Good morning." Leng Yihan paused for a moment before replying. When her mother came out, Leng Binglan also greeted her very seriously, and even Lin Yin received the same treatment.
Good morning, Sister Lin Yin!
"Huh? Ah... Good morning, Binglan." Lin Yin was also stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Leng Binglan to call her that. This was completely different from the Leng Binglan of the past. Even if there were outsiders present, she would at most not call her a wild woman, but she would never call her sister.
"Mmm...it's delicious!"
"Really? I'm glad you like it, Auntie!"
After breakfast, Mom left home to go to work, while Leng Yihan prepared to clean the house.
If it were the usual Leng Binglan, she would probably have gone to play Oracle first, but today Leng Binglan unusually lifted the ground for Leng Yihan.
"Binglan... why don't you go play the game first? I can clean up by myself." Leng Yihan wanted to take the mop, but Leng Binglan turned her back to Leng Yihan and said without turning her head, "No need, my brother and I will finish quickly together, and then we can play together."
Later, all three of them got involved in cleaning, and it was indeed much faster than before. They cleaned the house in half an hour.
But Leng Yihan still felt uncomfortable. This icy blue... wasn't she treating her like an outsider?
After logging into the game, Xiao Yulin happened to be online, and she was accompanied by a little girl with the ID "Meng Linxi". Leng Yihan recognized her at a glance – wasn't that Kang Meng?
"Hmm~ So today, shall we mainly take Kang Meng to run through all the low-level dungeons? Is that alright?" Xiao Yulin glanced at the three of them and asked for their opinions.
"Okay, no problem." Leng Yihan had no problem, and the two women naturally had no problem either. The five of them headed towards the dungeon that Kang Meng was currently level 20 in. A day passed, and the five of them were busy running around in the Oracle. After finishing the Oracle dungeon, they would go to fight the wild map BOSS. After defeating the BOSS, they would go to play ranked matches or ladder matches. The ladder match roster was basically settled.
The number one spot goes to Extreme Cold, no doubt about it, after all, he's the male lead.
The second and third places are somewhat unpredictable, with Yu Xiao and Lan Yue each having a 50/50 chance, so their rankings are not particularly fixed.
The fourth place goes to Tianhuo. The Netherworld series is more and more monstrous than the last. If the first three weren't even more monstrous, it wouldn't be ranked fourth now.
Fifth place goes to Po Jing Lei after he acquired Lei Ling Yan hope. With Yan hope, Po Jing Lei's strength increased significantly. As the two became more and more proficient in their cooperation, Po Jing Lei was even able to knock down the Heavenly Fire at times.
The sixth place goes to Yinse, after all, her bow is just too powerful, and her strength has been getting stronger and stronger under the repeated slaughter of Leng Yihan, Leng Binglan and Xiao Yulin. Now she is the well-deserved number one hunter.
The seventh place goes to Void. This guy is a top professional player with considerable skill. He managed to maintain his seventh position on the God Ranking without dropping further. Unlike Elf Fairy, who has become increasingly difficult to survive with the changes in the game.
My goal is to become the Magic King, just like the Elf Fairy. Because of the version updates, he is becoming more and more difficult to beat. If he weren't one of the top-level players, he probably would have fallen off the God Ranking long ago. Moreover, there are rumors that Team 3510 is contacting him and wants to recruit him into their team.
Ninth place, of course, is our perennial ninth place. We finally made it to eighth, but now we've been knocked down again. It's truly heartbreaking...
The tenth place is also a professional player, and she is Tong, who is known as the number one female player in the professional circle. However, if we are talking about the entire Oracle, some people think it is Yu Xiao, and now naturally some people think it is Lan Yue.
Seeing that the time was approaching, Leng Binglan logged off early, and Leng Yihan also logged off to prepare dinner with Leng Binglan. Lin Yin did not want to be outdone, so she also logged off to learn how to cook.
She had expected to be met with more sarcastic remarks, but to her surprise, Leng Binglan was very kind and taught her how to cook some home-style dishes. That evening, the three of them had an extra dish of scrambled eggs cooked by Lin Yin.
After dinner, we took a shower, and then the three of us worked on our summer homework for a while to finish the rest. After we finished, we went to bed.
"Hmm... What's wrong with Binglan?" After entering the room, Leng Yihan noticed that Leng Binglan hadn't followed her in, and turned around to ask in confusion.
"I'm thinking about something..." Leng Binglan lowered her head, her eyes somewhat dim.
"What's wrong?"
"...I guess I'll just forget about it. From now on, I'll sleep separately from you two. After all...call me narcissistic if you want, I'm not bad looking, you know. I don't want Sister Lin Yin to be jealous of you because of this. From now on, you two, boyfriend and girlfriend, can sleep here together, and I'll sleep in the bedroom." Hearing Leng Binglan speak so bluntly and make her point clear, Leng Yihan had a bad feeling.
"Hey? Binglan, what are you talking about? Yihan and I didn't..." Lin Yin hurriedly tried to explain, but Leng Binglan interrupted her, "It's okay, you don't need to worry about my feelings. I was just too young to say something as silly as liking my brother. How could siblings be together? It was just admiration, but I kept turning it into a romantic feeling." With that, Leng Binglan bowed to Lin Yin.
"I won't interfere in your relationship anymore! That's it!" After saying that, Leng Binglan turned around and rushed into the bedroom next door, locking the door with a click.
Lin Yin paused for a moment after grasping the doorknob, then withdrew her hand. "It seems you really care about her..." Leng Yihan looked at the somewhat disappointed Lin Yin and ruffled her hair.
He didn't know exactly how much Leng Binglan liked him, but his feelings for Leng Binglan were just like a brother's doting affection for his sister. Although there were occasional unexpected events, nothing changed.
"...Go to sleep, she already knew?"
"I already exposed her on the night of the birthday party." Hearing Leng Yihan's words, Lin Yin didn't say anything more. She returned to the room with Leng Yihan, closed the door, turned off the lights, crawled into bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
In the days that followed, Leng Binglan acted as if she were Leng Yihan's real sister. Leng Yihan even doubted whether he really had such a sister. If he hadn't remembered that he had taken the girl in, he probably would have forgotten about her.
As time went by, Leng Yihan noticed something serious: the gap between them and Leng Binglan was widening. Gradually, Leng Binglan's former playful and carefree attitude had disappeared. Now, Leng Binglan always wore a mask when communicating with them, a mask she used to wear to deal with strangers.
August 10th.
"bump!"
"...Huh? What's going on?" Leng Yihan opened her eyes groggily, as if she had just heard some strange noise.
Then Leng Yihan heard a strange sound, like the sound of wheels rubbing against the ground when dragging a suitcase.
"Wait... dragging a suitcase?" Leng Yihan suddenly opened her eyes, jumped out of bed, put on her slippers, and rushed to the entrance.
The owner of the suitcase quickened her pace upon hearing the door open, but Leng Yihan was one step ahead and grabbed her the instant the door opened.
"Hoo... Binglan, where are you trying to go?" Leng Yihan looked at Leng Binglan, who was dragging her away, with complicated eyes.
"Hmm? Brother, didn't you know?" Leng Binglan was silent for a moment, then turned around and smiled at Leng Yihan. "My parents have gone home, and I have to go back now too. Besides... I'm a little embarrassed to have bothered you for so long. I hope we'll meet again sometime in the future."
...A lie, an obvious lie.
It's one thing to fool others, but Leng Yihan knows Leng Binglan's true nature. Her original world has been destroyed to such an extent that she definitely can't go back. Moreover, she has no relatives or friends in this world. The claim that she is Leng Yihan's cousin is completely fabricated. Where could she go?
"Why did you lie to me?" Leng Yihan took a step forward. Leng Binglan did not back down, but a hint of hesitation appeared in her eyes, and the smile that had been on her lips disappeared.
"Hey, Yihan-ge."
“…” Leng Yihan did not reply.
