"Amie, you're wonderful too. You deserve my fourth brother's love," Jie Jingling quickly added.
"Of course," Qin Mei replied with shameless confidence. "I'm a universal favorite, a true one-of-a-kind. You'd need a microscope to find someone else like me."
"Pfft!" Jie Jingling couldn't help but burst out laughing, reaching out to smooth the hair at Qin Mei's temples. "Yes, yes, yes, you two are the best. You must always love each other dearly and live happily ever after."
Jie Jingchen was getting a little anxious. His older sister had asked the question, and while Qin Mei hadn't exactly answered, it felt as though she had.
Jie Jingchen was sure of one thing: Qin Mei hadn't actually said whether or not she had fallen in love with him.
His older sister didn't press the issue, letting her sidestep the question. So Jie Jingchen still didn't know if Qin Mei had truly fallen in love with him.
