"Well, please."
Lin Qiu nodded, glanced at Qin Yunmo who was still holding her hand, coughed lightly, and then quickly let go, turning her head away somewhat awkwardly.
Hearing Lin Qiu leave the room, she breathed a sigh of relief after the door closed.
Her gaze lingered on the hand she had just held, a faint blush still lingering on her skin. The warmth that hadn't faded made her feel as if Lin Qiu's hand was still holding hers, giving her a slightly itchy feeling.
But... it doesn't feel like I'm that averse to it?
Lin Qiu, who came out from the other side, stared at the crowd still gathered at the door with a subtle expression. These guys still hadn't dispersed.
"How did it go, Brother Lin Qiu? Can I call you brother-in-law now?"
"How far is it going?"
"Ruoyun and I had some alone time yesterday, and we still have some left. If you need any..."
"Hey, hey, hey, you guys are getting more and more ridiculous!"
Lin Qiu rolled her eyes. She and Qin Yunmo were fine, but it felt like they were about to hit the highway.
Seeing Lin Qiu's reaction, everyone realized that things weren't going so smoothly, and they pouted in disappointment.
Qin Zheng silently stuffed a small package back into his pocket; it seemed the time wasn't right to use it yet!
"Sigh, let's all go, let's go. I don't think there will be any good news today."
"Sleep, sleep."
Just as everyone was leaving, Xiao Dan stayed behind, staring longingly at Lin Qiu.
She had just heard that there was a late-night snack, and she was feeling a bit hungry.
"Is beef noodles the only option for dinner?"
"I'm not picky."
Seeing that Lin Qiu had also taken care of her share, Xiao Dan's eyes curved into adorable crescent moons.
My brother-in-law really treats me well!
"Brother Lin Qiu, what were you and my older sister doing in the room just now?"
Qin Dan followed behind Lin Qiu and asked anxiously, "At first we could hear some noise, but then it went silent."
"It's nothing, just a lottery over there."
"Didn't you do anything else with your older sister?"
"What else do you want to do? It's not like it's some anime plot where a man and a woman being alone together will lead to some ambiguous situation."
"Hey—that shouldn't be the case. Usually, they would hold hands or hug and something, right?"
"..."
If Lin Qiu didn't know this was his own home, he would have thought the little guy had installed surveillance cameras in the room.
Your complete explanation has left me unsure how to respond!
Qin Dan also noticed the fleeting change on Lin Qiu's face, and her eyes narrowed instantly. Sure enough, something must have happened!
Wow, this older sister is quite capable at crucial moments! She knows how to seize the right opportunity and make her move!
"You two held hands?"
"Boom!"
Qin Dan asked without trying to hide her voice, and the moment she finished speaking, a strange knocking noise came from the bedroom behind her.
Xiao Dan, increasingly convinced that she had guessed correctly, wore a playful smile.
"Lin Qiu, have you...?"
"Oh!"
Before she could finish her question, Qin Yunmo immediately pulled open the bedroom door, glaring at Qin Dan with a somewhat embarrassed and annoyed expression...
133 - Why should I argue with a philanderer about this?!
"Big sister, I feel a lot of pressure from you staring at me like that."
Qin Dan muttered to herself, her hands trembling slightly as she held the chopsticks.
From the beginning, my older sister has been emanating a subtle but palpable murderous aura, as if she would kill me for the greater good if I uttered a single careless word.
My expectations for beef noodles have been completely suppressed!
However, Qin Yunmo did not say anything, but continued to stare at Qin Dan, occasionally glancing at Lin Qiu who was busy chopping vegetables, feeling an inexplicable itch in his heart.
If it weren't for Xiao Dan, I might already be doing further research on how to make beef noodles!
"Xiao Dan, I put the spyglass in Qian Hui's room, could you go and get it for me?"
Noticing the class monitor's conflicted thoughts, Lin Qiu greeted him while washing the vegetables.
The class monitor was practically overflowing with resentment; if he didn't do something soon, Xiao Dan's life would be in danger!
"Eh—at this time?"
Qin Dan pouted slightly, somewhat displeased. What if they secretly got intimate again if she ran away now?
This is a really exciting part; you'll regret it if you miss it!
"Go quickly."
Lin Qiu glanced at Qin Yunmo, which immediately startled the little guy, who jumped up from his seat.
"I'm going right now!"
After watching Qin Dan run upstairs, Qin Yunmo silently looked towards Lin Qiu.
Watching the guy busily preparing beef noodles again, she was about to stand up, but the moment her hand touched the table, she seemed to recall the feeling of being held, and her whole body involuntarily went limp.
"Hmm? What's wrong, class monitor?"
Hearing the noise behind him, Lin Qiu turned around with some confusion.
"It's nothing, my arm just suddenly went numb."
"You didn't hit it?"
"fine."
Qin Yunmo shook his head, seemingly feeling guilty for thinking about holding hands, his face flushed and somewhat alluring.
Lin Qiu looked at her somewhat confusedly, feeling that the class monitor had blushed quite a lot today.
"Let's not talk about that now. I'll treat you to midnight snacks this time, and you can tutor me from the side."
"Okay, the steps are simple anyway, class monitor, you should be able to do it by now."
Lin Qiu didn't mind and simply gave Qin Yunmo the spot on the stove.
Xiao Dan, who ran back to Chie's room, was immediately grabbed and interrogated by Xiao Xuan and Chie.
"How did it go? You must have discovered something by staying behind, right? Did you find anything?"
"Did you stick out your tongue?!"
"What are you thinking? Holding hands is already the limit. With my personality, I can't possibly rush things like that."
Qin Dan rolled her eyes at them, annoyed. Couldn't they be more realistic? If Brother Lin Qiu dared to use force, he would definitely be killed by the eldest sister immediately!
Upon hearing this, the two little ones pouted, and their hard-won spirits immediately drooped again.
I thought there had been some groundbreaking development today...
"Don't look so disappointed. Although the progress isn't that fast, the sense of closeness has obviously increased a lot."
Qin Dan said in a serious tone that she could clearly sense that there was a hint of ambiguity between them.
With a little more effort, this can definitely be accomplished!
"That's just your feeling..."
What are they doing now?
"They're making late-night snacks over there; nothing's happening yet."
No sooner had Xiao Dan finished speaking than Xiao Xuan darted out, tiptoed to the railing, and peeked curiously at the situation below.
At this moment, Qin Yunmo and Lin Qiu were focused on cooking noodles, occasionally exchanging whispered conversations.
But under Xiao Xuan's unwavering gaze, the distance between the two was gradually closing at an extremely slow pace.
Are they getting closer?
"Did you feel it too?"
"Is something wrong with her right hand? She looks very unwell."
Not only did Xiao Dan notice this problem, but Lin Qiu also noticed it, staring at her hand that had been held with a strange look.
Feeling increasingly uncomfortable under Lin Qiu's gaze, Qin Yunmo stiffened and asked in a low voice—
"what happened?"
"Oh, it's nothing. Class monitor, your arm might still be numb. Let me do it."
As Lin Qiu spoke, she was about to reach out and take the chopsticks from Qin Yunmo's hand, but the moment their fingertips touched, Qin Yunmo shuddered.
"That—your hand..."
"Ahem, sorry!"
Seeing the jade-like hand that he had unconsciously grasped, Lin Qiu's eyelids twitched, and he quickly let go.
"Uh, sorry, I was holding your hand for too long just now, it's a bit of a conditioned reflex."
He shouldn't have said anything, because once he did, Qin Yunmo's ears turned red again, and she glared at him with a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance.
Is this guy trying to say outright that he didn't get enough of a good deal?
"He got an A! Brother Lin Qiu got an A!"
Seeing Lin Qiu's small gesture, Qian Hui hugged Xiao Dan with some excitement.
Has Lin Qiu finally started having those kinds of thoughts?!
The two little ones beside them also stared excitedly at the two of them. Before they could say anything, Qin Yunmo downstairs turned around without warning and stared intently at them, which made them feel a chill run down their spines.
Instinctively, he shrank back and hugged his head, trembling as he hid behind the railing.
After hearing no sound, she blinked in confusion. Her older sister hadn't come to arrest them? Had Lin Qiu controlled them?!
Just as they were about to turn around and look downstairs again, Qin Yunmo was already standing silently to the side when they subconsciously turned their heads.
"Big...Big sister, when did you get up here?!"
"What do you think?"
Qin Yunmo stared at the three little ones expressionlessly, and sighed with a headache.
If I knew it was Xiao Xuan and Xiao Dan, it would be one thing, but they also brought Qian Hui along, so I just can't bring myself to do it!
"Sister Yunmo, were you holding hands with Brother Lin Qiu just now?"
Just then, Qianhui suddenly asked a question, which made Qin Yunmo pause in surprise.
The class monitor awkwardly pulled his hand back, which had been held, and the three little ones smiled mischievously at his attempt to cover it up.
They've definitely got their eye on it!
"Squad leader, aren't you keeping an eye on the noodles? They'll get mushy if you cook them too long."
"coming!"
With Lin Qiu's call, Qin Yunmo didn't dare to confront the kids any longer and ran downstairs in a somewhat disheveled state.
"Aren't they asleep?"
"Yeah, I was just bored and peeked over there."
"What are you peeking at?"
