Chapter 10 Drunk

Ah?I thought my ears were wrong.

But Sister Juan immediately repeated the words: I said, Yingying likes you.This time, I heard it clearly.

But I still feel that my ears are wrong.

Sister Juan, you are not kidding.

Do you think I'm joking?I couldn't help but feel nervous when I looked at Sister Juan's serious expression.

As if I wanted to make my words more convincing, Sister Juan began to explain: I used to think she was too attached to you, but at that time I thought it was a good thing. I, the two of you, must be the happiest thing to do when you get along well.

But now that you have grown up, Yingying still sticks to you. She will follow you wherever you want to go. Even if I talk to you, she will get angry. I think this is a bit...unusual.

When I recalled the various scenes of Yingying being with me, I still couldn't convince myself to believe Sister Juan's conclusion at the beginning.

Sister Juan, you're a little overthinking. Yingying is closer to me, but this is just because I'm closer to her, right?I heard Yingying say that you have not been at home during the day recently, and she and that person... have a bad relationship with my dad, so it would be natural for her to come to me.

Sister Juan looked at me and said: Xiaoyu, I know you may not have this kind of concept, but sometimes this kind of thing is hard to explain.Yingying is also at this age. It is normal for her to like a boy, and you are the closest to her.I know, you only treat her as your sister, but how do you know if Yingying’s thoughts are the same as you?Does she only treat you as her brother?After all, you are not related by blood. If she really thinks this way, I can't stop her.

Sister Juan continued: When you were all at home, I could still watch her and keep her distance from you... Now, you have moved out and you have to live together, I am really a little worried...

Sister Juan.I walked forward and held Sister Juan's hand.

Sister Juan struggled for a while, but still let me hold her hand.

Sister Juan, you know why I don’t have that kind of idea.The person I like is always you.I looked into Sister Juan's eyes and confessed affectionately.

Sister Juan's breathing was a little rapid. She turned her face to avoid my hot gaze, but her hand was already held in the palm of my hand, and our bodies were connected, which made her unable to retreat and could only face my feelings.

Xiaoyu, I said, it’s impossible for us to go back again...

But you haven't said I can't wait.Sister Juan, I still have a lot of time. Can’t I wait until the day when you change your mind?

Sister Juan showed a wry smile on her face, and she said in a self-deprecating tone: I'm afraid I will have no time by then.

Sister Juan, I don’t care, I will wait until the day you agree.I expressed my feelings, wrapped my hand around Sister Juan's waist, and made a gesture to hold her into my arms.

But Sister Juan pushed me away desperately and broke free from my hand.

Xiaoyu, it’s impossible... I have already sworn that I will never be sorry for your father again in this life.

My heart suddenly hurt, as if an old wound was cracking again.

Time passed by in common silence, and finally, Sister Juan spoke first: Xiaoyu, I have to leave, your father is still waiting for me at home.

When I heard Sister Juan mention her father, my anger couldn't help but surge.

Wait for you?Hasn't he brought another woman home?Sister Juan, are you sure he is waiting for you?

Sister Juan widened her eyes: Xiaoyu, what are you talking about?

I looked at Sister Juan's shocked eyes and was stunned. Does Sister Juan still know?

Sister Juan seemed to understand what I was thinking. She looked at me, looked up at the upstairs and said: Did Yingying tell you?

I didn't say anything, but Sister Juan already knew the answer.

Sister Juan, have you rarely come home recently?I asked a question that I had been hiding in my heart for a long time.

Sister Juan nodded and said: The company is at a critical moment recently, and your father is unwilling to take care of the affairs in the company anymore. I can only throw myself into the company alone... Maybe it's because I'm too busy, so he... At the end of his speech, Sister Juan couldn't help but cover her mouth and made a sob sound.

I was speechless and walked up to her while Sister Juan was crying, reaching out to hug her.

Sister Juan twisted for a moment, gave up resisting, buried her face in my chest and made a dull cry.

Sister Juan, you should see clearly and leave him.As I said, I could feel my heartbeat speeding up as I said this, which might be my best chance.

But Sister Juan finally pushed me away.

Let me think about it, Xiaoyu.Let me think about it carefully, just by myself, think about it.Sister Juan left anyway.

It was not until her car completely disappeared at the end of the road that I turned around and returned to the upper floor and returned to the room where Yingying had been waiting for a long time.

Brother, why have you been going down for so long?You didn't bring your phone, I couldn't even call you.

As soon as I came back, Yingying came up, but she chattered and said nothing, but I didn't listen to a single word.

elder brother?What's wrong with you? What's going on?I didn't answer her, but just lay on the sofa in silence.

It's getting late, Yingying, go to bed.After saying this, I turned my back to Yingying.

Yingying was a little confused. She had no idea what was going on and said: Are you going to sleep now?It's too early...

Then you go to bed later, I'm sleepy.

My answer made Yingying not know what to say, so she said again: Brother, go to bed, I have already made the bed.

Isn't there just one quilt?

We can sleep in a bed...

Sakura.I interrupted her, your mother said, we can't sleep together anymore, you are growing up, it's not appropriate to do this.

Yingying pursed her lips and said: Why do you have to listen to her Ah?I obviously slept in the same bed when I was at home.

That is also a special situation, not because you said I wouldn't be with you if I couldn't sleep.Okay, be obedient, hurry up and go to bed.

don't want!Brother, if you don’t accompany me, I won’t go to bed!

I sat up, looked at Yingying, who was playing the rogue, and shouted: Yingying!obedient!

Yingying was frightened.She looked at me timidly, and crystal tears began to appear in her eyes.

Then, she turned around and rushed into the bedroom, closing the bedroom door heavily.

I looked at the closed door, as if I was watching Sister Juan take away. The two were obviously different, but they were gradually moving away from me.

But what can I do?Once again, I was rejected by Sister Juan, what choice would I have?

This night, I relived the taste of insomnia again.

********************

The life of Yingying and I under the same roof opened with a mixed start.

But the relationship between Yingying and I began to be distant from a clear perspective.

Alienation is unilateral, but in fact I am just keeping the distance between me and Yingying unilaterally. Sister Juan's words that night still aroused some concerns in my heart. I began to examine the relationship between myself and Yingying, and the final conclusion I came to was such a result.

Actually, I should have felt something long ago. When Yingying took the initiative to ask me to sleep in the same bed, I should have realized that Yingying had already crossed the boundary between brother and sister.

But at that time, I was all my attention by the matter between Sister Juan and my father. I didn't think too much, but I treated her like before. In my eyes, Yingying, who would hide behind Sister Juan with a braid and peek at her.

But Yingying has grown up, and she is no longer the ignorant little girl.

I know that although Sister Juan didn't say it clearly, she didn't want to see Yingying and I go to that point.

Although there are not many obstacles when I am with Yingying in terms of blood or law, there is a hurdle in my heart that cannot be overcome in Sister Juan and I.

It is precisely because of this hurdle that I made the decision to alienate Yingying.

Just as Sister Juan said, if one day Sister Juan and I can come together openly, how should we face Yingying?

My relationship with Yingying is undoubtedly very close. Yingying is already a relative that I cannot give up, but by that time, how will Yingying, who may have a vague relationship with me, face me with a sudden change in identity?

I don’t know how to solve this problem, and I can’t tell you everything about Yingying. The closer Yingying and me is, the less I can’t speak out about the relationship between me and Sister Juan.

But I still have a trace of wings in my heart. Sister Juan’s concern for the relationship between me and Yingying is not unreasonable. Since she doesn’t want Yingying and I to become the closest relationship, it means that she still has concerns, or...

Have your own selfishness.

And Sister Juan’s selfishness is my all hope.

As time passed little by little, Yingying and I became busy.

After Yingying's daily routine became earlier and late after going to school, she went out earlier and came back late, but because of the relaxed college, I lived a life of going to bed late and getting up late.

Yingying and I rarely have the opportunity to get along with each other positively. Only on weekends can we really have time to spend together.

Yingying seemed to understand my attitude. She no longer took the initiative to come over to act coquettishly. She became silent, and her personality seemed to go from one extreme to another.

On weekends, I often stay outside, and the communication between college classmates is much busier than I imagined.

But no matter how late I come back, I can see Yingying guarding the living room, with prepared but unmoved meals in front of me.

Weekend dinner is the only meal I still eat with Yingying, and Yingying also attaches great importance to the significance of this meal. I have never seen her go out on weekends. She starts preparing dinner before lunch every day, and she never makes a few dishes I like, and even if she needs to change it, she will ask for my opinion in advance.

Yingying's cooking skills improved at an amazing speed during the practice once this week. By the third month of our stay, her skills had reached a level that even Sister Juan praised.

Speaking of Sister Juan, she will visit Yingying and me at a frequency of two or three times a month, but this is just an offspring. In fact, she is still to supervise Yingying’s study and life.

Sister Juan never stays with me, and she will insist on going home no matter how late it is, which disappoints me.

But after moving out, I can still have such a chance to meet Sister Juan regularly. I can sit with her and Yingying for a few days in a month and eat with her and Yingying as before. This has already made me very satisfied now.

However, one day Sister Juan suddenly found me and raised a topic that surprised me.

That night, I sent Sister Juan downstairs as usual.

Xiaoyu, have you had any conflicts with Yingying recently?Sister Juan's sudden remarkable question made me completely confused.

Without Ah, we are pretty good. It would be better to say that we can't meet Ah at all. Yingying has to go to morning self-study every day, so she gets up early and goes to bed very early at night. As for me... I just go to bed late and get up late, so we can say a few words on weekends.

Sister Juan sighed and said: I knew it was like this.

How is this...Ah?Sister Juan, I still can’t understand what you are saying.

Sister Juan sighed again, she looked at me and said: Then I will just tell you clearly.Have you been a little too distant from her recently?

I suddenly understood something.

Sister Juan, you mean this Ah... Indeed, I am keeping a distance from her, but isn't this because you reminded me once before.

After listening to my explanation, Sister Juan just shook her head.

I know your purpose is good, but you have such an obvious way... I am afraid that Yingying will not understand you.

There is no way, I can only do this kind of thing. I can’t let me go to her and tell her it directly.I also expressed my helplessness.

Sister Juan sighed and said: When I came last month, I noticed that something was wrong with her condition. However, when I asked her, she was unwilling to tell me that I was busy this month and forgot about this matter. As a result, when I came here today, she still looked the same, and it was even more serious.Xiaoyu, don’t you feel anything at all?That state of Yingying.

I could only shake my head. To be honest, I noticed that Yingying has changed. She said less than when she was at home. She was in a low mood when she met occasionally.

But I just thought that was a normal manifestation of her face of new pressure after entering a new school and grade. To be honest, I was in this state for a while back then, so I naturally used my experience to deal with the relationship with Yingying...

Do nothing, let it go.

But now it seems that the experience I accumulated back then was simply because I was not used to conveying my inner pressure to others.

But Yingying is different from me. She is a sentimental girl after all. Maybe I really overlooked her feelings too much.

Sister Juan said last: Xiaoyu, don’t care too much about my words. After all, she still calls you brother, and you still treat her as your sister. It’s better for you to get along with each other as before. As for my words... you can just remember them in your heart.

Sister Juan’s words became an opportunity for me to improve or ease the relationship with Yingying.

I began to deliberately stay at home on weekends, and even took the initiative to talk to Yingying.

At first, Yingying still seemed a little restrained, but gradually we finally returned to our original state, and the weekend became the day we made an appointment to spend together. We would have dinner together, go to the movies together, or just sit together to talk about our recent lives.

Yingying's topics are basically her experiences at school, most of which are her new friends, and sometimes she complains about an inhuman teacher.

My topics are basically interesting things in university clubs, and occasionally I will talk about topics like female classmates who are close to me at Yingying's strong request.

Yingying has always maintained a high concern about whether I have a girlfriend. In the past, I might have thought that her gossip instinct as a woman was causing the blame, but with Sister Juan’s reminder, I couldn’t help but have other ideas about Yingying’s enthusiasm.

What makes me strange is that Yingying doesn't seem to object to my date with a girlfriend. She even actively encourages me to hook up with a girl, but she is not really selfless. A sentence she will repeat every time she talks about this topic will expose her child's heart and character:.

Brother, you are not just having a girlfriend, you are looking for someone who may be called my sister-in-law in the future.So Ah, you must introduce the people you like to me. If I don’t even like them, then you can change them quickly!

I know what Yingying’s subtext is: if she doesn’t like the person I like, then she will not admit that the other person is qualified to be my girlfriend!

The standard that Yingying looks down on is actually very simple, but it is also very strict, that is, she must be better than her, even if there are any flaws she thinks she will not recognize.

Although it is quite a bit suspicious to say this in my capacity as Wang Po, who is selling melons and boasting, Yingying is really the best girl I have ever seen.

Yingying, who inherited Sister Juan's excellent genes, is definitely outstanding in appearance, and her grades in school have always remained in the top ten. Even her only shortcomings and personality are widely praised by the people around her. Yingying is recognized as understanding and approachable in her class, and is even praised by the most affinity of the newborn goddess.

What surprised me the most was not her, the title that is said to be widely circulated, but that this news was not something I asked for myself, but that my roommate who had never forgotten it when I met Yingying!

Of course, I taught the bastard who ran to my alma mater and Yingying for nothing, but for the first time I really learned the true charm of my sister.

I even felt an inexplicable sense of vanity because of this. On the second day after I learned the news, it happened to be a weekend. I temporarily changed my plan for the day and took Yingying to the best Western restaurant nearby.

Brother, what's the big day today? Why are you suddenly so generous?

Sitting in the restaurant surrounded by Schubert's soothing piano music, Yingying looked at the well-dressed men and women around her, looking a little restrained.

Well... I was thinking about a reason at least on the surface. This time it was indeed a whim, but there was a reason to remember what I insisted on saying.

I picked up the red wine glass and said: This time it is not my big day, it is your big day.Come on, I wish you first place in the freshman beauty pageant in the school!

oh!Yingying blinked her eyes unexpectedly and raised her goblet. I thought you didn’t know... But it happened last week, right?

Didn’t you have no time last week because of this?I'm also busy, so I happened to make up for it today.I touched Yingying with her and then watched her take a sip of the rose-colored wine.

Hmm!Yingying frowned, but she swallowed the wine in her mouth.

Ah, you haven't drunk dry red before, right?This taste may not be easy to adapt to at the beginning.As I said that, I took a sip of the slightly sour wine.

Yingying put down the wine glass, then carefully pushed it away a little, raised her eyes and said: Why is this wine sour?

This is the taste of dry red. It doesn’t matter if you can’t get used to it. I’ll call you a drink.

No!Yingying waved her hand quickly and picked it up again. I should drink the same thing as my brother, just the same...

Looking at her brows frowning slightly, I resisted a little lost.Maybe, I'm a little ignoring the charm of my baby sister.

Um?As if she noticed that I was looking at her, Yingying put down her wine glass and said: What's wrong with me?

No, nothing.I quickly covered up my eyes and changed the topic. This outfit is very suitable for you and is very beautiful.

Ah... Yingying looked down and then made an action to cover her chest.

Well, I didn't look at it just now, did I?

But Yingying looked up and looked at me meaningfully. She seemed to understand something, and then she straightened her chest openly.

Hey, I said, girl, what do you mean?Should I let you see it or not? Why did you make me look like a pervert?

I had to pick up the wine glass and use the action of drinking to hide my embarrassment.

Yingying was wearing a dark purple evening dress, which was the clothes she rented when she participated in the beauty pageant. After the competition, she didn't have time to return it. I saw it when she took it out today, and then I took it as a way to suggest that she wear this dress to eat in this Western restaurant I accidentally discovered. It was also a compensation for her failure to attend the celebration of her victory on the day of the day.

The design of this dress is trendy and very...

open.

At least in the chest position, I am not stingy at all to set off the plump designs, but I am not willing to give me more fabrics.

Anyway, this is the first time I have seen Yingying wearing such bold clothes. No wonder she showed an unexpected and hesitant expression when I asked Yingying to wear this outfit to go out for dinner.

But Yingying still agreed.Because of her shyness, she kept holding my hand and hiding beside me, which also made my little vanity satisfy.

Actually... they forced me to participate, and the clothes were the same.Yingying, who had already started to appear slightly flushed on her face, suddenly said.

Um?What are you referring to?

This beauty pageant!

Yingying, who had drunk wine, seemed to be much more excited, because her restraint for the first time on this occasion also disappeared. They wanted me to go on the tour last year, but I didn't agree. This year, I thought it was not a newborn, and I must have nothing to do with me. As a result, they actually modified the range of participants and pushed me up.

Then she lowered her head, and the blush on her face seemed to be even thicker: I also said this dress. I clearly said that I would choose a longer one, so they gave me this... What else do you say? This is definitely the one that suits me the most and highlights my advantages!

Yingying said angrily: What Ah, those stinky boys!In their eyes, is the only advantage of girls that is such superficial?

After saying that, it seemed that the resentment in my heart had not been fully vented. Yingying actually made a move to hold her chest with both hands, which almost made me spew out a sip of wine that I had just drunk into my mouth.

Well, Yingying, be careful!This is in public, please pay attention to the impact of Ah!

Yingying seemed to be really drunk. She looked at me with a hazy look and said: Brother, are you the same as those boys?Do you think the only big one is good?

Well... I'm about to sweat. How do I answer this kind of question when I ask this kind of question in such an occasion?

But speaking of this, Yingying has inherited Sister Juan’s excellent genes and is proud of her at a young age... Although she is still one of the best compared to Sister Juan, she is not as good as her.

Wait, what am I thinking about?

I hurriedly took the wine glass from Yingying's hand and said: Yingying, you are already drunk, let's not drink it.

No, I still want to drink!

Little ancestor, how could I let you drink again in this state?waiter!Sorry, please give me a bottle of water, it will be hot!

Finally... I carried Yingying home.

After putting Yingying on the bed, I breathed a sigh of relief. Although Yingying looked petite, it was unexpectedly not particularly light.

Isn't there a saying?

If you weigh only 100, you are either flat or short. On the other hand, what is the other way around...

Yingying should be over 100, right?

No, what am I thinking about!

I shook my head and decided to take a shower and calm down my mind, which was constantly thinking about it.

Most of the bottle of dry red ended up in my stomach. Although my alcohol content was pretty good, I still felt a little drunk after drinking so much red wine.

I was about to leave, but I had to come back.

I suddenly remembered that there was still something troublesome to be done.

Before going out, Yingying specifically emphasized to me that her dress was very expensive and she was particularly afraid of pressure. She must not wrinkle it, otherwise she would be blamed by the junior sister who borrowed her clothes.

But I completely forgot this along the way...

I looked at Yingying lying on the bed. She was not honest since she was a child. She always slept in other people's arms and sometimes she would fall off the bed. If she let her sleep until the morning, then her clothes...

I'm a little afraid to imagine that picture.

In desperation, I had no choice but to walk to Yingying and pat her face to wake her up: Yingying, Yingying!Get up, change the clothes before going to bed. Didn’t you say that this clothes cannot be wrinkled?Get up quickly!

But Yingying was not moved at all, just said no, and even hugged my neck and almost made me fall on her.

Ah…Nothing to do.

I looked at Yingying's slightly undulating white chest, and I felt a little dry.

Then, I reached out to her body.
