My older sister is a villainous rich girl

"Hey, did you hear...?"

When Ge Li arrived in the classroom, he heard the girls whispering as always.

I don't know why they are so enthusiastic about discussing anything that happens at the academy.

"That Lady Chris, she's having a falling out with Lady Wayne..."

Upon hearing those two names, Ge Li paused for a moment while tidying up the table.

"Yes, someone saw Lady Chris trying to talk to Lord Wayne during break, but Lord Wayne walked away with a very unpleasant expression..."

"They didn't come to school together today either; Lord Wayne arrived much earlier..."

"I never imagined I'd see this. I thought that young master Wayne would never be angry..."

……

In the music classroom on the top floor.

Wayne was playing the piano blankly.

He knew he was wrong, and he also knew that these things might cause gossip in the academy.

But he no longer had the heart to care about so much.

He doesn't want to see Chris right now, nor does he want to obediently play a perfect supporting role like before.

Not only did he arrive at school early in the morning, but he hasn't spoken a single word to her alone since.

He could no longer hide it.

From the time I can remember, I have been growing up with all sorts of expectations from my family.

Although I sometimes hate those heavy burdens in the name of love, I've long since gotten used to them.

He transformed that pressure into motivation to strive harder.

He felt that his efforts were meaningful as long as he thought about meeting everyone's expectations.

That's why I was able to persevere, study hard, and get into various key schools one by one.

That's why I can tolerate the inhuman exploitation of the company's 996 work schedule and often ask to work overtime voluntarily.

Because he wasn't fighting for himself alone, but for the people closest to him.

Even after coming into this world, he did not live aimlessly.

Because he felt that he had always been—

Chris needs him.

He enjoyed Chris's dependence on him, loved seeing her get into trouble and need his help, was content taking care of her without any worries, and considered her happiness as his own.

"This fool can't do without me..." I can't help but think.

He once thought that if his time travel had any meaning, it might be to meet such a person and spend his life happily with her.

But those were all fake.

It was just wishful thinking on my part.

He got too caught up in the role and accidentally started to see her as family, someone he could spend his life with.

Simply because of the long-term companionship, a possessive desire to own the other person naturally arises.

After being rejected, he became enraged and began to vent his resentment on her.

Ha, how ridiculous.

He thinks he's very important.

Do they need you?

Even without you, she can still be very happy, right?

After all, there are so many potential harem members... male leads one through seven, even female characters wouldn't be a problem. If they took turns, they wouldn't be able to finish scheduling them all in a whole week...

It doesn't matter if I, an insignificant person, disappear.

He stopped his hands, which were no longer playing anything.

The gentle breeze blowing in from the window now only makes one feel restless and uneasy.

Perhaps because it was donated by a thoughtful senior student, there is also a full-length mirror on one side of the classroom.

In the corner, there were two simple tables and chairs stacked together.

He walked over, pushed a desk over, and straightened it facing the mirror.

Then he leaned back at the table and carefully examined himself.

Looking at his handsome face in the mirror, he felt bewildered.

...I didn't originally look like this.

Why did I have to act in this otome anime...?

I am bored.

Enduring pretense, cross-dressing, and constant homoerotic tension every day... this is not the life I want.

I want to play on the computer.

I want to drink soda, the ultimate comfort drink for couch potatoes.

I want to see my anime/manga waifu.

I want to eat boiled fish, grilled fish, ramen, stinky tofu, snail rice noodles, boiled sliced ​​meat, Mapo tofu, or even fried chicken from Kaifeng cuisine.

I still want to go home.

He looked into the eyes of the person in the mirror.

—This person is just like a stray dog.

He smiled gently, the corners of his mouth curling up.

...His smile was uglier than his tears.

"It looks really bad."

A familiar voice rang out in the classroom.

His gaze shifted slightly as he saw Miss Ge Li's figure in the mirror.

I don't know when they arrived.

The slightly sarcastic tone was as if he were mocking his own disappointment.

He didn't turn around, but silently watched Ge Li for a while.

Ge Li also looked at himself through the mirror.

"Could you please leave? I don't have the energy to deal with you right now."

He didn't want to see anyone or talk to anyone.

In fact, the things in this world don't really have much to do with us.

Whether you participate or not, just let it follow the original plot; wouldn't that be fine too?

To put it bluntly, what's the difference between these people and NPCs in a single-player game?

Perhaps, I should have been an NPC instead.

Upon hearing his words, Ge Li bit his lower lip hard, his gaze darkening.

Even at a time like this, you're still just as annoying.

She locked the door again and walked up to Wayne.

Wayne simply watched her every move silently through the mirror.

Nothing happens.

“Wayne Winch”.

Suddenly, Ge Li put a hand next to Wayne's ear, turning his gaze toward himself.

The icy touch gave him a slight jolt.

She said softly, "Please... always remember me."

The girl tiptoed, her cherry-pink lips first capturing his lower lip, then gradually penetrating deeper.

Wayne stared at her blankly.

Her eyes were filled with an expression he couldn't understand.

But this kiss was very passionate.

He instinctively wrapped his arms around her soft waist and pulled her into his embrace.

Miss Ge Li's body had a faint, pleasant fragrance.

He suddenly responded even more passionately, pushing her against the mirror and lowering his head to nibble at her again and again.

For a long, long time, the only sounds in the classroom were the sounds of the two people entwined.

Goli, panting heavily, pushed his face away.

"Was this considered a kiss?"

Wayne couldn't say a word.

Seeing Wayne's completely dumbfounded expression, Ge Li chuckled softly.

Then, she reached out her hand—

He untied the ribbon and buttons at her neckline.

A swan-like, fair and slender neck, perfect collarbones, and below that...

Everything was laid bare before Wayne's eyes; his pupils dilated, and he almost forgot to breathe.

"Only this once."

Miss Ge Li said.

"Let us... betray what we want."

As Miss Gothic embraced him again, only one sentence flashed through Wayne's mind—

I,

Oh no.

Chapter 122 All I Wanted

Chris no longer knows why things have turned out this way.

I've gotten everything I wanted.

I don't want to change anything.

I enjoyed every day with family and friends and had an unprecedentedly happy time.

But... why did you suddenly come up to me and say you like me...?

Wouldn't it be better to keep things the way they were before?

Isn't it better to stay together as family rather than as lovers...?

After all, even the most intense love can eventually turn cold.

The thought of becoming lovers with someone in the future, or even getting married and having children, is more accompanied by fear than any other emotion such as shyness or anticipation.

I don't want to form this kind of intimate relationship with anyone, where it feels like a single word or expression could pierce the other person's heart and leave them bleeding.

She was very scared.

I'm afraid that one day I'll become the one who gets abandoned, afraid of being treated like someone who can be easily dismissed with money.

The fear of losing someone makes even desperate attempts to win them back seem so unsightly.

So, just like I used to do it a long time ago.
