After the physical fitness test, it was nearly noon. Naturally, Su Yun brought Qin Xue back home with her.
She was the one cooking lunch today.
Stir-fried eggplant and carrots with meat, along with a side of baby bok choy.
Three dishes—maybe not as rich or flavorful as those fried with heavy oil and salt outside, but definitely much healthier.
Once the food was placed on the table, Su Yun sat down on one of the chairs by the round dining table.
She shot a resentful glance at Qin Xue.
“Seriously, can you not just stand behind me and watch like that… What, afraid I poisoned your food or something?”
“Hmm~? I’m not afraid at all. I just wanted to admire Xiaoyun~”
Qin Xue cupped her face in both hands, her eyes reflecting the snowy-white glow of Su Yun’s face.
“Ugh… whatever you want.”
Being stared at from behind while cooking—it was a weird feeling…
Su Yun didn’t know if it was from the heat of the kitchen or the awkwardness, but her face was definitely starting to feel a little warm.
She scooped out rice into two bowls—one for herself and one for Qin Xue—then lowered her head and began to eat.
Su Yun didn’t need to eat, but letting Qin Xue eat alone felt a little too lonely.
After all, she had eaten alone at the school cafeteria before—she knew exactly how that felt.
What Su Yun didn’t realize was that, even during lunch, Qin Xue was sneaking glances at her.
A blissful bite of rice, then a glance at Su Yun—as if she were using the girl as a side dish to flavor her food.
Hehe… her soft little wife cooking for her—what a blessing.
Now then… what should she wear this afternoon to tease Xiaoyun?
At this moment, all the fatigue from the morning’s physical test had vanished. As long as she was around Xiaoyun, she felt like her energy would never run out.
Of course, if Su Yun could hear Qin Xue’s inner thoughts, she’d probably leap up from her chair and bite her on the spot.
…
As noon passed, two o'clock rolled around.
Time for their afternoon study session.
After washing the dishes, Su Yun went to sit at the desk in the bedroom like she always did, picking up her book to continue what she had been studying the night before.
She was focused only on one thing—becoming stronger.
Sunlight still shone through the windows, combining with the indoor lights to brighten the whole room. Sitting near the bed, Qin Xue basked in the golden glow, relaxed and thoughtful.
She couldn’t quite understand why Xiaoyun studied so hard.
You ran away from home already. Isn’t it time to chill a little?
In her mind, the only question was—what to wear next to make Xiaoyun blush?
Black stockings were the best. Definitely keeping those.
But what else?
…
In truth, she never cared much about dressing up at school. She just bought whatever skirts and socks felt comfortable and wore them if they were decent enough.
Only when she went out with someone did she ask Qin Xuanxuan for fashion advice.
(PS: The “girls” Qin Xue had hung out with before Su Yun were just for casual shopping trips.)
But those were just regular outdoor outfits—not quite suitable for indoor teasing.
Qin Xue buried her head in thought, and suddenly, a genius idea popped into her mind.
Her middle school white uniform!
She had grown up, sure—but she could still fit into it. Some parts were a bit… tight. But that was exactly the effect Qin Xue wanted.
“Xiaoyun will definitely love it, hmph~”
Overjoyed, she rolled off the bed and headed straight to the wardrobe opposite.
But no matter how much she rummaged through it, she couldn’t find her middle school uniform—not even her high school one.
Qin Xuanxuan didn’t bring them?
Qin Xue pouted in disappointment.
Then again, it made sense. She hadn’t worn those in ages—they were probably packed away.
Dejected, she crawled back onto the bed and returned to basking in the sunlight, occasionally sneaking glances at Su Yun sitting on the left.
Xiaoyun was so hardworking… didn’t even spare her a glance.
But such a pure and diligent little girl—what a treasure~
Qin Xue wasn’t bored, though. Like in the kitchen earlier, she continued watching Su Yun from the side.
Hmm?
Why was there a pair of blue panties hanging from the window?
They didn’t take a shower last night, did they? And wasn’t that the pair she had lent Xiaoyun?
Actually, she had noticed it a while ago—but had been too preoccupied searching for clothes to pay attention.
Now that she thought about it… weird?
She didn’t remember seeing those there before bed last night…
“?”
A wave of curiosity—and the thrill of a guilty conscience—washed over her.
Qin Xue stealthily grabbed the laundry rod by the bed and carefully hooked the little blue item hanging from the window.
Su Yun, deep in her studies, noticed nothing.
And once the small item was in her hands, Qin Xue’s eyes lit up.
As expected!
It was still a little damp to the touch—not fully dry.
Meaning… it was just hung out recently.
“Mmm~”
For the next full minute, Qin Xue indulged in that “pure girl” scent with great interest.
“Mmhm~” she hummed happily, holding it in both hands as she sat at the bedside.
Xiaoyun smelled so nice.
At this moment, she felt like she had discovered something even more fun than teasing Su Yun.
She didn’t even look at her anymore—just sat there, holding the little garment.
“Hmph~”
Qin Xue’s humming finally caught Su Yun’s attention.
What is Sister Xue doing over there, making those weird noises…?
She’s not… doing that, is she?
Su Yun didn’t believe the elegant school belle would do something so lewd—especially not with her still in the room. Frowning, she was full of confusion.
But the moment she turned and saw what was happening on the bed, she froze.
“Sister Xue, you’re holding… the one I secretly changed out of last night—!”
“Ahhh!!! Stop it!”
Su Yun’s face instantly flushed crimson. She flew across the room and snatched the blue underwear from Qin Xue’s hand.
“Sister Xue, you can’t do stuff like that!”
She stomped in place, furious and flustered, yelling at the perverted (meow~) big sister in front of her.
She clutched the garment behind her back like a precious treasure.
“Why would you… what if it smells weird or something!”
She was so anxious she looked like she was about to cry. She glared at Qin Xue with trembling lips.
But instead of apologizing, Qin Xue only smiled.
A beautiful, seductive smile full of teasing mischief.
“I was just checking if Xiaoyun washed them properly. You’ve been studying so hard—leave laundry to me, okay?”
“Really?” Su Yun blinked, unsure if she could believe that.
There was something in her expression… something that made Su Yun’s heart tremble.
“Sister Xue, you’re such a pervert.”
“Really~ I’m serious~”
“So, tonight when you shower, I’ll help you wash your underwear, okay?”
As she spoke, Qin Xue stood up and pressed her generous chest right up against Su Yun’s face.
Su Yun practically yelped as she leapt away, darting out of the bedroom.
“Sister Xue, I’ll do the laundry myself! I’m fast at it, really…”
“Oh? But…”
“I’ll do it!”
Seeing the little girl about to flee through the door, Qin Xue could only concede with a sigh.
“Fine~”
Her tone held a hint of disappointment, but inside… she was already fully satisfied.
She never imagined that just smelling it would make Xiaoyun react this shyly.
Her cheeks were so red… I really want to bite her!
Of course, Qin Xue had no idea what exactly made Su Yun so embarrassed.
If she did, she might have forcibly taken that blue piece back and treated it like a sacred treasure.
“Sister Xue… you seem very energetic. Hurry and study.”
Su Yun, seeing that Qin Xue didn’t make any more moves, cautiously stepped back into the bedroom.
She now moved like a startled kitten—ready to bolt at the slightest scare.
“Let’s study together, sister~ come sit by me.”
Qin Xue waved her over, unusually taking the initiative to sit at the desk.
“Mm, okay…”
Su Yun nodded, then quietly hung the little blue one back up before creeping to sit beside Qin Xue.
But the moment her bottom touched the chair, an arm wrapped around her waist—startling her so badly she almost jumped.
“Xiaoyun, what’s wrong? Why so sensitive all of a sudden?”
“I—it’s not that…”
Su Yun’s small hand trembled as she raised her pen. “Use your left hand to hold me… let’s study properly.”
“Why would I? I write with my right hand.” Qin Xue grinned and tightened her hold.
“Ugh…”
Being half-hugged by Sister Xue while trying to write, Su Yun felt like her brain had turned to mush. Her handwriting was all crooked—she couldn’t concentrate at all.
Meanwhile, Qin Xue’s heart was blooming with joy.
Not only could she admire Xiaoyun’s adorable, crimson cheeks at close range, she also had that soft little waist right within reach.
Worst of all… that sweet scent on her—it was identical to the one from earlier.
For a moment, Qin Xue felt like she had reached the peak of life. Her whole body tingled with fuzzy delight.
“Xiaoyun… Xiaoyun… hehe… I really want to—”
Ding—
Just as the atmosphere was reaching its peak, a phone rang loudly from the side.
Su Yun, as if grasping a lifeline, snatched the phone and darted to the side with a massive sigh of relief.
“Hey, Sister Xue, it’s your sister calling.”
“Huh? Yuanyuan? What does she want?”
Qin Xue frowned as she answered, feeling like her little bubble of happiness had just been popped. “That brat—when I get back, I’m smacking her butt.”
“Hello—”
“Sister! Hurry back, or Big Sis is going to find out!” came Qin Yuanyuan’s panicked scream through the phone.
“What?!”
The two of them instantly went quiet.
Su Yun no longer cared about her embarrassment. She leaned in next to Qin Xue’s shoulder, listening intently.
“What happened?”
“Big Sis… Big Sis, she…”
“What?! Say it already!” They urged her, ears practically twitching.
“She’s taking Sister Xue to the hospital!”
“…?”
“Uh… what the hell…” Su Yun was completely stunned.
