Ye Qing chuckled softly as she watched her brother's face flush with joy. She walked up to him, playfully pinched his cheek, and scolded, "You're so headstrong! Whenever it comes to me, you never bother to think things through. The envelope was clearly unopened—how could it possibly be important to me? Every time you secretly slipped me a note, didn't I open it right away?"
"That's because you, my dear brother, mean the world to me. If I hadn't opened it, it would have meant the letter was meaningless. I was just in a hurry to get back and didn't want to throw it away in front of the sender. I simply forgot about it afterward. I only panicked when you saw it because I was afraid you'd overthink things, not because I actually cared about the letter!"
"Really, Sister...?" Su Chen stammered, finally realizing how foolish he'd been. He cared so deeply for his sister that even the slightest breeze set his imagination running wild.
