Chapter 419: Buzzing Headaches
How was Xia Yu supposed to respond to such a fierce statement from Sister Xiao Ning? Plus, she was also afraid of making Sister Xiao Ning unhappy, so she could only grumble to herself. Xia Yu wasn’t too happy about this but didn’t say a word.
“Alright, stop thinking too much and be a soft, cute girl. Otherwise, Hanhan will be sad.” “Why?”
“Because she can’t beat me or Little Ling, so she’ll have to fight with you instead. And if you turn back into a boy, she won’t feel comfortable fighting you.” Xia Yu: “…Isn’t that better?”
“And in that case, you can’t sleep with me anymore,” added Jiang Kekai with a smile. “Sister Xiao Ning, can your heart bear it?”
“That’s why I won’t let it happen.”
Jiang Kekai wrapped her arms around Xia Yu from behind and rolled onto the bed sheets. This was their usual playful roughhousing since it was just the two of them. However, the good times were short-lived. As Xia Yu and Jiang Kekai continued their sweet and loving moment, the room door was knocked again.
Knock-knock-knock!
“Big sister, I’m back! Hurry up and open the door!” Jiang Kekai: “…Go away.”
“Big sister, quick! Open up.” “Xia Yu, open the door.”
“Sweet Xia Yu, open the door. Hurry up…” Jiang Kekai: “…”
Xia Yu: “…”
Needless to say, Jiang Hanhan had become shameless. Earlier, they were at each other’s throats, and now, poof! No comment!
Click!
Jiang Kekai reluctantly opened the door and half-closed her eyes to see what her dumb little sister wanted. “What is it?” “I want to go in.”
Without hesitation, Jiang Hanhan seized the opportunity and charged into the room. Her hair was still wet, clearly indicating that she had just washed it.
“So, what do you want?”
Xia Yu looked at Jiang Hanhan quite helplessly. They had been getting along so well with Xiao Ning just moments ago, and here comes the troublemaker! “I came to play with you.”
It seemed Jiang Hanhan had forgotten all about their earlier conflict. She suddenly hugged Xia Yu’s waist from the side, not knowing what she intended to do.
Of course, innocent Xia Yu was caught off guard by Jiang Hanhan’s actions. She thought Jiang Hanhan might try something sneaky again, so she quickly called out her big sister to act as a shield: “Xiao Ning is still here! You seem fine!”
“What? I just want to make up with you.”
With a mischievous grin, Jiang Hanhan made another bid for attention toward Jiang Kekai, continuing her lack of shame: “I’ve decided; I’ll sleep with Xia Yu tonight.” Jiang Kekai: “…”
Xia Ling: “…”
Still standing outside, Xia Ling was quite perplexed. She thought Jiang Hanhan would try to mess with Xia Yu again, but it was—what? Nonetheless, this move would hurt herself and Jiang Kekai the most.
Sure enough, when Jiang Ling saw Jiang Kekai’s darkened face, she understood the situation a bit. After all, it’s pretty messed up for a sister to compete for a girlfriend!
“Go back to your own room and cool off.”
Jiang Hanhan had a mind of her own indeed. Jiang Kekai did too. She planned to forcefully remove this naughty little girl and throw her out.
But there was a catch. Jiang Hanhan held Xia Yu so tight, so tight that she even taunted Jiang Kekai: “It’s no use, sis. Didn’t you want Xia Yu and me to get along? Look how well we’re doing now!”
“Get out of here. Go back to your own room and sleep!”
Xia Yu tried to pry Jiang Hanhan off, but Jiang Hanhan just wouldn’t let go. The commotion drew the attention of those adults who were still eating and drinking, especially Uncle Li.
He had no idea how to comment on Xia Yu. What was he even dealing with here? Not even a boy anymore? He was no longer convinced by Xia Hong’s explanation.
Even so, he didn’t speak his thoughts aloud. Xia Hong might have reasons for insisting that Xia Yu was a boy. He didn’t want to cause trouble between good friends. His wife could drive, so Uncle Li was free to indulge in some drinks. It was nice to reunite with buddies over food and drink.
But Xia Le and Lin Jie played their own games, and the girls formed their little clique, which left Uncle Li feeling a bit bored.
Especially his daughter. Without a phone, she had no choice but to watch people ignore her, which was rather uncomfortable. She wanted to join the older brothers and sisters but felt unwanted.
Coincidentally, when Xia Yu looked up to ask for help, she locked eyes with the young girl.
“Quick, pull her away.”
Who was Xia Yu talking to? All three girls were confused until they saw the girl running over. Ah, an eight-year-old knows some things she should and shouldn’t do. But she was too shy to refuse.
So when Xia Yu called her, she was super excited, thinking the sisters wanted to play with her.
But when she got close, Jiang Hanhan gave her a mean look, as if not wanting her intervention. So the girl glanced at Xia Ling and Jiang Kekai, only to find them both frowning. That couldn’t be right. Had she done something wrong?
Unbeknownst to her, it was just Jiang Kekai and Xia Ling who didn’t want outsiders interfering in their world.
No help came. Exhausted from struggling, Xia Yu finally surrendered and looked at Jiang Hanhan: “Fine, you win. Let go, I need to sleep.” “Sleep together.”
Jiang Hanhan was really getting on her nerves because she was still bitter over her encounter with Sister Xiao Ning earlier and wanted another go at it.
Indeed, to Jiang Hanhan, bullying Sister Jiang Kekai was still her favorite pastime.
Thus, the drama ensued. “Bring it on.”
Jiang Kekai gave up, her face black. Faced with Xia Yu and her beloved sister, she could only give in. She couldn’t abandon them.
Just then, little Jiang Kekai gently pulled the confused little girl out of the room. Then she led Xia Ling inside and shut the door, isolating themselves from the outside world. Seeing this, Wang Wenjuan could only step in to comfort the hurt little girl and offer her some soothing words:
“In fact… they used to be like this before too. They’re not very social. Don’t take it to heart.”
