"I know, Sister Xue isn't that kind of person. I came to take you away... let's go together."
Su Yun struggled to poke her head out from Qin Xue's embrace. Seeing the current situation, she felt somewhat relieved.
It seemed Qin Xue really was being threatened, so there was a chance.
"Hm? Are you really Little Sister Yun?" But after hearing Su Yun's voice, Qin Xue seemed very surprised, letting go and moving far away from Su Yun.
"This isn't a dream... are you really Little Sister Yun?"
"Yes, it's really Xiaoyun." Su Yun was stunned for a moment, then remembered something and started explaining.
"I'm real. Your sister is sleeping now, let's go. We can talk about anything later."
"No, you need to leave quickly." The next second, Qin Xue was like facing a stranger, her tone cold.
She had been so happily hugging her just a moment ago.
"Eh?" Su Yun didn't understand what was happening, crawling slowly closer to Qin Xue on the bed.
But the closer she got, the further Qin Xue moved away.
"Sister Xue, what exactly happened? Aren't we friends? After all this time, don't you want me anymore?" Su Yun felt frustrated seeing this scene and couldn't help feeling wronged.
That pitiful appearance on the bed also struck Qin Xue's heart.
Should she still tell her...
"What are you doing here?" At this moment, a cold female voice came from outside the door, making Su Yun in the room instantly freeze, not daring to make any sound.
At the same time, Qin Xue was the same.
If they were discovered, future plans would be ruined.
"Eldest Miss, I need to clean the room this morning."
"Then why are you alone? Where are the other servants?"
"As the eldest among the five of us, and as head maid, I usually get up first to do this, Miss."
"..."
The maid's explanation seemed fine to Qin Yao, but she hadn't come down because she saw the maid here.
"I heard you talking just now. Is Qin Xue awake? Is there anyone else in the room?"
"Miss is awake..."
"Sister Yao, why are you up so early? I was just chatting with Sister Xue. What's wrong?"
Just as the maid didn't know how to explain, Qin Yuanyuan, who had also woken up early, walked over.
"Mm, it's nothing. Since you're up so early, go have breakfast quickly."
Seeing Qin Yuanyuan, Qin Yao dismissed her suspicions and went back upstairs.
"Sister, what's wrong with you two?" After sending Qin Yao away, Qin Yuanyuan quickly entered the room and saw the two people sitting far apart.
In her heart, she actually disliked Su Xiaoyun more - he didn't give her candy, only ate hers, and even bit her.
But she really liked seeing this person with her sister...
Because of her, Qin Xue had suddenly seemed like a different person, starting to study diligently, and yesterday after Su Xiaoyun was driven away, she even cried under her blanket.
She guessed that all of her sister's changes were because of Su Xiaoyun, and without Su Xiaoyun, her sister would be sad...
Qin Yuanyuan didn't know what attitude to have toward this Su Xiaoyun who made her sister sad, but she decided to help her.
"It's nothing. You should take her out quickly." At this time, Qin Xue's expression looked very indifferent, turning her back to Su Yun, wanting the maid to take her away.
Su Yun couldn't see clearly, but Qin Yuanyuan at the door could see perfectly.
Sister was crying again.
"Sister, if you like her then be together. Why hide like this? It makes everyone suffer."
Qin Yuanyuan's simple mind didn't think too much and subconsciously said what she thought.
"I don't like her. You're wrong, little sister."
"How is that possible! Sister, you obviously cried because of her! You're crying right now!" Qin Yuanyuan said somewhat excitedly.
"Your voice is too loud, shh!" Hearing the loud voice, Su Yun immediately ran over and covered Qin Yuanyuan's mouth.
"Mm!" Qin Yuanyuan's expression now looked very wronged.
"Sister Xue, whatever it is, please tell me..."
The silent Su Yun also knew that she had come here courageously because the other person said Qin Xue was crying over her.
"Oh." At this time, the door opened and the maid came in.
After entering, she immediately closed the door to prevent sound from escaping.
"Miss, I can see your feelings for her are extraordinary, but why are you doing this... We don't want to see you sad. Tell us and perhaps we can help you."
The maid's face showed a concerned expression.
Now Qin Xue faced these three people, one was her sister, one was the maid who had cared for her for over ten years, and the other was the first person she had ever liked in her life.
Seeing them worried because of her, Qin Xue couldn't hold back anymore.
"Sigh, you people..." She took a breath and finally walked toward Su Yun, looking into her eyes with her own slightly confused gaze.
"Little Sister Yun..." Qin Xue couldn't bear it anymore either, walking up to embrace her, her voice somewhat choked.
"Sister Xue..." Feeling the warmth in her arms, Su Yun immediately held on tightly, not wanting her to leave again.
After hugging for a while, Qin Xue began recounting what happened yesterday and why she had to drive Su Yun away.
Simply put, Qin Yao had already found her blood purchase records and knew Su Yun was a magical species.
If Qin Xue didn't concentrate on studying properly, she would publicize this matter and let society know Su Yun was a vampire.
This was undoubtedly using Su Yun's life to threaten Qin Xue, so Qin Xue could only drive Su Yun away.
If it were just about Qin Xue, she wouldn't be this worried.
"Then, let's go." After hearing this, Su Yun gripped Qin Xue's soft hand tightly, looking at her with determined eyes.
"Hm? You need to leave quickly, or it'll be over if that person discovers us."
Qin Xue obviously hadn't expected Su Yun to say such a thing, pushing at her small shoulders, wanting her to leave quickly.
But only then did she discover that Su Yun's strength was surprisingly great, her forceful push didn't move her at all, like she was pushing a tall man.
"We won't be discovered. I have a plan."
"What plan?"
Next, Su Yun told Qin Xue the plan she had thought of last night.
If Qin Xue usually stayed home and didn't go out, her sister wouldn't notice anything unusual as long as there were sounds from the room, she would think Qin Xue was still there.
How would the sounds come? Recording? No, that would still be too obvious.
When Su Yun had come here before to practice being a maid, she once heard what sounded like Qin Xue's voice behind her, but when she turned around, she saw it was Qin Yuanyuan.
She had suspected then that as sisters, Qin Yuanyuan's voice should be quite similar to Qin Xue's, just with different pronunciation habits.
For this reason, last night she specifically had Qin Yuanyuan try not being so lively, not shouting, and attempt to lower her voice when speaking.
She listened several times and finally heard voice messages that sounded quite similar to Qin Xue's.
