Why are you telling me this? Oh right, the big sister thinks I'm worried about a rival.
Bai Ningning realized and snorted, "It's okay, I guess. She's pretty, but her chest is too flat; I don't feel any pressure at all."
There's nothing much to say; as the largest aircraft carrier in the family, it's just wild.
After a while, it was dinner time. Bai Ningning sat at the dining table and found that it was just her and the big sister.
"Is Qin Xin not coming back?"
"Yeah, she's staying in the dorm these days," Qin Yue said, "Seems like she has some things to deal with at school."
"Can you still stay in the dorm after applying for day student status?"
Is the school that good?
"If you withdraw the accommodation fee, you can't stay," Qin Yue explained, "But if you don't withdraw the fee, you can stay."
"…Oh."
Then it's no big deal.
After dinner, they took a break, took a shower, and then lay on the bed to play on their phones. This was the standard routine before going to sleep; life is just so wonderful.
Qin Yue was also playing on her phone, but she didn't go to the bedroom. Although it would be more comfortable with Bai Ningning around, and she could occasionally hug the fragrant and soft big pillow, what she was doing now made her feel a bit guilty.
Hmm, she was consulting Teacher 00 for knowledge.
Teacher 00 came quite late today. Qin Yue asked with concern, and the other party said she had encountered some issues and was feeling a bit complicated.
[YN]: If that's the case, should I come back another day to ask?
[00]: It's fine, now is good; I just need to shift my focus.
[00]: You want to ask about Jekyll, right?
Qin Yue admitted without hesitation; she had a goal to become the best Jekyll user in the world.
So, Teacher 00 began to explain. With her extensive knowledge, she was naturally well-versed in this classic equipment.
From brand selection to historical inheritance. From parameter data to practical value. From theoretical use to combat records. She knew everything, understood everything, and was transparent about it all.
Qin Yue first noted everything down in her memo; there were too many knowledge points that needed time to digest slowly.
Looking at the time, there was still a while before sleep, and since she was idle, Qin Yue tried to inquire.
[YN]: Teacher 00, what happened to you today? Can you share?
She was curious if someone as knowledgeable as Teacher 00 would also encounter emotional problems.
[00]: Actually, sigh... I don't really know how to say it.
Since they met online and didn't know each other's identities, there was an extra layer of security, so Teacher 00 revealed a secret that absolutely couldn't be known by others.
[00]: To be precise, it's not something that happened today; I just realized it today.
[00]: I might... or rather, I very likely have developed feelings for a girl who already has a girlfriend.
Teacher 00 talked a lot, and Qin Yue listened with great interest for a long time. Unfortunately, most of what Teacher 00 shared was about her own feelings, and there wasn't much description of the events or the other person.
All she knew was that it was a school beauty from their school.
When it was time to sleep, Teacher 00 felt sleepy first and took the opportunity to log off. More gossip could be discussed later when there was time.
Time to sleep, Qin Yue thought; she also needed to sleep, and there was a white pillow waiting for her.
Zzzz
At Xicheng University, Qin Xin finished washing up and got into bed, ready to sleep.
"Qin Xin, why are you back at school again?" her roommate asked her. "Didn't you say your home is close?"
"I have things to handle at school," Qin Xin casually replied, "Club stuff."
Of course, there was nothing going on with the club; the free fighting club just practiced boxing every day, so there wasn't much to deal with. The reason Qin Xin chose to stay at school for a few days was mainly to calm down.
Now, every time she closed her eyes, all she could think about was Overwatch and the white-faced bun. The imaginary thoughts were already overwhelming; if she saw the real person, she wouldn't be able to control herself.
If she went home in this state, she would expose herself in just a few minutes. So, she needed to stay outside for a few days until the illusions in her mind were digested, maintaining a calm and peaceful mindset before daring to go home.
Don't rush; she had already succeeded once. As long as she stuck to her previous tactics, she would continue to succeed more and more in the future. Qin Xin reminded herself in her heart while quietly closing her eyes.
Lying down and tasting the bitterness.
...
Friday was just like any other day, unremarkable. The morning classes posed no pressure for Bai Ningning; she had passed the English Level 4 exam easily in her previous life, so English classes were a piece of cake.
After school at noon, she went home and played games for a while, happily showcasing her dragon sniper's roar sapphire to her teammates on the platform.
Even the big sister was a bit jealous of the game.
"It's finally Friday, and we get off early," Qin Yue said, somewhat reproachfully, "And you're just here playing games?"
"What else?" Bai Ningning replied immediately. "If I'm not playing games, what should I do, play with you?"
Qin Yue was both amused and annoyed: "Why isn't it the other way around? Don't you think the other way around is more likely?"
Bai Ningning tilted her head: "Playing games with me?"
"It's me playing!"
Oh.
Bai Ningning stopped pressing the F key, tilted her head: "But we have to go to the company tomorrow. Shouldn't we do something now, or are you not afraid of not getting up?"
Qin Yue rolled her eyes: "That's the only reason why I haven't pinned you down yet."
Unable to argue further or take action, Qin Yue could only go to the living room to watch TV and cool off.
Friday passed quickly like this.
On Saturday morning, Qin Yue said she would go to the company at nine o'clock, but Bai Ningning quietly got up at seven-thirty. After washing up and getting dressed, she greeted Aunt Zou and left the house early by herself.
She had promised to take Nainai to the company that morning.
No other meaning, just like an aircraft carrier setting sail, it's normal to have a destroyer escort, right?
In reality, an aircraft carrier doesn't just carry one destroyer.
The school gate was the agreed meeting point, and when Bai Ningning arrived at eight o'clock, Nainai had already been waiting for a while.
Since it was a formal outing and involved contracts and such, Nainai tried hard to make herself look more mature. She styled her hair like an adult, with a neat ponytail, and wore a stylish hoodie with a short skirt and black tights.
However, both she and her outfit were too petite, giving off a cute vibe of a little adult.
"Big, senior," Nainai said a bit nervously, "I'm ready."
"Don't panic," Bai Ningning walked over and grabbed the little girl's hand, "Let's go."
They took a taxi to the company entrance, and Bai Ningning sent a message to Li Yue in advance. When they arrived, Manager Li happened to come out to greet them.
"Secretary Bai, President Qin won't arrive until nine o'clock. You came so early, do you want to..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Li Yue suddenly noticed the adorable little girl standing next to Bai Ningning.
"Let me introduce you, Manager Li," Bai Ningning said, "This is the artist student I mentioned last time. Nainai, this is Manager Li, who helped resolve the misunderstanding last time. Come on, say thank you to Manager Li."
"Th-thank you, Manager Li," Nainai said obediently.
Li Yue didn't respond; she heard the sound of her heart stopping.
