Qin Yue ultimately held back.
Tomorrow afternoon, she still had to find a way to deal with her mom's questioning. If she couldn't hold back today, it would be hard to explain.
It's fine, let her be wild for a while longer; she has her ways to handle it.
"Sister Yueyue," Bai Ningning looked up at her, "If there's nothing else, I'm going to school."
If there is something, then she would take a leave, so she should decide whether or not to ( ), and do it early.
"Nothing's wrong," Qin Yue suddenly calmed down, "You can go."
"Okay."
Bai Ningning got out of bed, put on her shoes, and left the house for school.
Qin Yue sat on the bed for a while, took out her phone, and opened the Taobao app.
That little green tea is too young; does she think playing World of Warships is just a simple competition of naval combat skills? So naive! Even in competitive games, you can buy in-game items.
What Qin Yue fears the least is competing in spending money.
However, she didn't have much experience in this area. Entering Taobao felt like entering a bustling market, with all sorts of dazzling items; just looking at the pictures could make her dizzy.
No rush, before making a real purchase, she should first learn a bit.
Qin Yue opened the long-forgotten forum.
...
In a boring class, Bai Ningning sat down and started playing on her phone.
First, she sent a message to the club president, Lingyin.
[Ningning doesn't know]: President, I'm really sorry, but my girlfriend's mom is coming to our house tomorrow afternoon, so I can't make it.
See, this time she didn't lie; it's all the truth.
In another classroom, Lingyin registered her account on a certain forum according to the website's instructions.
In the forum, the bizarre knowledge made Lingyin want to escape. But at that moment, she received a message from Bai Ningning.
Oh, her girlfriend's mom is coming to visit, huh.
For some reason, Lingyin felt a surge of unnamed anger.
Study! Learn quickly!
...
In the end, Qin Yue still couldn't ask her question, not because of her own reasons, but mainly because the forum had restrictions on speaking based on levels. Qin Yue's account had too few points and didn't have the permission to post; she needed to check in for a week first.
Fine, let that little green tea be wild for another week.
In the evening, Bai Ningning came back, and Qin Xin also returned. Qin Yue wanted to greet her younger sister, but she found that as soon as Qin Xin entered the door, she sulked and headed straight to her bedroom, ignoring everyone.
"Second Miss, dinner will be ready soon, come out," she ran into Aunt Zou on the way.
"No, I'm a bit busy with my homework; just bring me a little to my room."
Qin Xin really didn't want to eat in the living room because she didn't want to see her sister and the senior's feeding play anymore.
'Are you eating? If not, I'll feed you.'
'Where are you feeding?'
'Everywhere.'
No, she couldn't think about it anymore; the more she thought, the more it hurt.
In the living room, Qin Yue heard Aunt Zou mention Qin Xin's intentions and frowned slightly.
"What's wrong with Qin Xin these days? I rarely see her, and she doesn't even eat with us."
Bai Ningning sat down and casually picked up her chopsticks: "Maybe there's some conflict between you sisters."
Anyway, it definitely had nothing to do with Ningning.
"We don't have any conflict, and the first day was fine," Qin Yue said, puzzled, "After we had dinner together on the first day, we haven't had a chance to talk since."
Bai Ningning swallowed a mouthful of rice: "Why are you suddenly concerned about this?"
She didn't remember them being that close as sisters; otherwise, after living together for so long, why did she only find out a few days ago that Qin Yue had a younger sister?
And coincidentally, she was my junior.
"Because the elders in the family are more concerned."
Qin Yue casually said something and started eating.
She had told Bai Ningning in the morning that their mom was coming to discuss the "little succubus" issue, but that was just one of the reasons; the other was to encourage the relationship between the sisters.
So, Qin Yue was quite troubled; she didn't know what was wrong with her sister, who usually kept to herself and didn't even eat together.
Let's see how it goes tomorrow; if it doesn't work out, let mom ask.
That night, everything was peaceful, and the two fell asleep quietly. The next morning, Bai Ningning still went to school for the second class, found her classroom, and sat there symbolically for a while.
After all, it was something she had learned years ago; not attending class really didn't matter.
"Bai Dayuan," her deskmate Guan Qian asked her, "This afternoon..."
"No time," Bai Ningning quickly replied, "I have something at home this afternoon."
"Oh, okay, I thought you were going to participate in the club recruitment."
The club president Lingyin wanted her to join, but the big sister's mom was coming in the afternoon, and the big sister said she had to be present, no excuses.
Although Bai Ningning didn't know what role she was supposed to play by being there.
At noon, after school, Bai Ningning returned to Shuiyue Tingyuan and found that Qin Mom was already home.
In the living room, Qin Mom and Qin Yue were sitting on the sofa, and the mother-daughter conversation... was not really a conversation; it was Qin Mom talking unilaterally to Qin Yue.
"Yueyue, your dad and I know that you've done a lot for the family and the company. But your health is more important than money. More than earning more money, your dad and I hope you live well and be happy every day."
Qin Yue couldn't hold back anymore: "Mom, I'm living well and I'm very happy."
"Look at your face, it's so cold, yet you're still happy," Qin Mom immediately said, "Mom and Dad have heard about it. You even saw a psychologist a while ago."
"That was because of what happened before, you know what it was about."
"Ah, what I want to talk about today is that matter, or rather that person."
Qin Mom didn't expect to get straight to the point so quickly, so she just said it directly: "The girl you brought back, she's not just any girl, she's a little succubus. By the way, what was her name again?"
"Bai Ningning," Bai Ningning answered.
Qin Mom almost jumped up from the sofa.
Qin Yue glanced at her lightly: "When did you come back?"
"Just came back, not long ago," Bai Ningning gently sat down beside them, "I heard you chatting, so I didn't want to interrupt."
Qin Mom's eyelids twitched; she thought to herself, how is that not interrupting? You only pick the nice things to say; this is clearly eavesdropping.
And you're standing there openly eavesdropping behind the sofa!
"Then why did you speak up?" Qin Yue asked her.
"Because I heard you discussing me and asking for my name," Bai Ningning said matter-of-factly, "It's polite to introduce myself."
She spoke with confidence, even wanting to proudly puff up her big pillow.
At this point, she suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Auntie, what did you just say about me? I didn't hear it clearly."
Qin Mom's eyelids twitched again: "I said you're a little succubus… complimenting you on being beautiful, having a good figure, and being charming."
