Of course, Tan Xingwei didn’t dare to act presumptuously again. Besides, when her mother left, she hadn’t said a word about not needing the scissors back yet, so the matter was extremely risky.
On top of that, she was truly sleepy, and so was Su Xu. Tan Xingwei acted cute in Su Xu’s arms for less than ten seconds before she ran out of energy and fell fast asleep.
They had dinner at home. When her mother learned that Tan Xingwei occasionally went to Su Xu’s place for dinner, she exaggeratedly expressed what a bother it must be for Ah Xu.
“Xingxing, you have to be good at Big Sister Ah Xu’s house. If you don’t know how to cook, you should help with other chores,” her mother said. “Don’t just open your mouth to eat.”
Although Tan Xingwei did, in fact, just open her mouth to eat at Su Xu’s house, Su Xu would speak up for her.
“She’s very well-behaved,” Su Xu said, sounding quite convincing. “She helps me with a lot of things. She’s the one who takes care of all the flowers at home.”
Her mother didn’t know what “taking care of flowers” specifically entailed, but Su Xu’s expression was very sincere, and that was enough.
“That’s good. I didn’t expect you two to get along so well,” her mother said, glancing at Tan Yinqing. “Those two don’t act like sisters at all. Not a day goes by that they don’t fight.”
As she finished speaking, Tan Xingwei and Tan Yinqing simultaneously put on sarcastic, mimicking expressions, shaking their heads and mouthing the words, “Not a day goes by that they don’t fight.”
It made Su Xu stifle a laugh.
Her mother wasn’t entirely right. In that moment, they were very much like sisters.
After the meal, her mother stuffed Su Xu’s car trunk with lots of things—homemade dumplings, beef, canned goods, milk, this and that, and even said to come back for more if she ran out.
And so, the pleasant weekend came to an end.
Although Tan Xingwei had practically been living at Su Xu’s place before, now that her mother had also agreed, it was different. Tan Xingwei took this as her mother’s blessing and moved into Su Xu’s home as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
In their newlywed bliss, a very energetic Tan Xingwei changed all of Su Xu’s bedsheets and covers, placed her own toys on the bedroom bookshelf, hung her clothes in the closet, and then went at it with a passion with Su Xu at night.
No, not just one session.
Hehe.
Perhaps because her life was so full of pink bubbles, when she went to work, some of her closer colleagues came to ask if she was in a relationship.
Being in a relationship was great. The work she used to find annoying, while not exactly pleasant to look at now, no longer made her irritable or prone to tantrums. She would do it calmly and carefully.
During breaks at work, she would also think of Su Xu and go bother her.
Tan Xingwei: 「Pay attention to me pay attention to me pay attention to me」
Tan Xingwei: 「Want cuddles want cuddles want cuddles」
Su Xu’s “cuddles” would arrive quickly, perhaps as a cute sticker, but more often a custom one Su Xu had made, of her hand caressing Tan Xingwei’s cheek, with Tan Xingwei wearing a look of pure enjoyment.
Su Xu’s job had a high probability of business travel. She recently received a notice that she would have to go to L City in a few days and wouldn’t be back before Tan Xingwei returned to school.
So the two of them made a plan to buy flights close to each other’s and meet directly at the airport in A City.
Coincidentally, just as Tan Xingwei bought her ticket, her neighbor came looking for her.
He asked Tan Xingwei: 「Have you bought your plane ticket?」
Tan Xingwei: 「What’s up?」
Chen Zheng: 「Oh, nothing. My dad said we’re going on the same day, so I was checking if we’re on the same flight.」
Chen Zheng: 【Image】
Chen Zheng: 「I bought this flight.」
Tan Xingwei: 「I haven’t bought mine yet.」
Chen Zheng: 「Okay, you should probably buy it soon. Don’t forget.」
Tan Xingwei didn’t reply. A moment later, he sent another message: 「If we’re on the same flight, I can give you a ride to the airport.」
Tan Xingwei: 「No need, someone is taking me.」
Chen Zheng: 「Okay.」
There was another recent topic worth discussing: Su Xu got her period.
Haha…
Recently, everything Little X posted on Weibo was quite substantial, with a breakthrough each time. A reader who wasn’t paying close attention could easily see that one second Little X was crushing on the straight Sister A, and the next, they were together.
It was just like the comment that had been liked to the top: “A ship I was on four years ago that I thought had no hope, got together four years later. I don’t know if you understand my mood right now. It’s particularly subtle, a kind of happiness on top of a calm mood. It’s not a lot, but it’s so comfortable. Everything I do makes me happy. I feel like the world is so beautiful, and that beautiful wishes are not impossible to realize.”
Tan Xingwei understood completely. Even on the night she was closest to her feelings and wanted to confess, Tan Xingwei had never imagined that she and Su Xu could become what they were now.
The comment sections of the recent chapters were like a festival every time. A new year’s celebration every few days. They praised Little X for being so good to them, for adding a little bit of sugar to their dull lives.
Of course, this had absolutely nothing to do with Su Xu getting her period. The reason for bringing this up was mainly because of our Little Scissor Teacher.
In a private message, after a lot of preamble, this and that, she asked: 「Sister Teacher, have you been the 0?」
Little X replied: 「Haha.」
Everything was conveyed in that “haha.”
Tan Xingwei really wanted to make this happen, but Su Xu was just too good at overpowering her. Plus, they didn’t have much energy for this sort of thing on workdays. Every time they had a little taste, they would fall asleep from exhaustion.
Work really gets in the way of all human entertainment. It’s so wicked.
Finally, the weekend arrived. Well, what do you know, our Sister Teacher got her period.
And so, the following conversation occurred between Tan Xingwei and Sister Teacher.
“Do you get cramps when you’re on your period?” Tan Xingwei asked.
Su Xu: “Not really. Occasionally, but not often.”
Tan Xingwei let out a “wow.” “That’s great,” she also said. “Tell me if it hurts, okay? I’ll make you something to drink.”
Su Xu said, “Okay, I’m fine now.”
At that moment, Su Xu was rushing to finish a proposal for her company, while Tan Xingwei was idling about.
So she made Su Xu a cup of warm tea and pulled a chair over. “Can I sit next to you?”
Su Xu caressed Tan Xingwei’s cheek. “Of course you can,” she didn’t forget to add a flirtatious line, “You can even sit on my lap.”
Since she said so, Tan Xingwei wasn’t going to be polite. She directly pulled Su Xu’s arms apart, swung her leg over, and sat down.
Su Xu chuckled.
It was actually possible. Tan Xingwei left Su Xu a line of sight, and Su Xu continued typing without any delay.
Tan Xingwei leaned lazily against Su Xu and asked, “How many days does your period usually last?”
Su Xu said, “Six or seven days, I guess.”
Six or seven days. Tan Xingwei pulled out a calendar.
What a mess. Six or seven days happened to fall right when they were about to be apart. In six days, Su Xu would be home; in seven, Su Xu would be in L City.
“Is it more like six days or more like seven?” Tan Xingwei thought for a moment and pressed.
Su Xu: “I don’t really remember.”
Tan Xingwei bit her lip.
The sound of Su Xu’s typing unconsciously sped up. Finally, she saved, sent, and closed her laptop, leaning back in her chair. She pinched Tan Xingwei’s chin and lifted it.
“Hmm?” Tan Xingwei was puzzled.
Su Xu: “Spit it out. What’s your scheme?”
Tan Xingwei’s eyes gradually curved into crescents. She lowered her head, poking her index fingers together, and started to act. “It’s just, it’s just…”
Su Xu cut her off. “Want to be the 1?”
Tan Xingwei’s eyes slowly widened. She covered her instantly hot face. “How did you know?”
Su Xu chuckled. “What else could it be?”
Tan Xingwei pursed her lips. “Can I?”
Su Xu nodded. “Of course.”
Tan Xingwei’s heart went oh-yo. That’s my sister for you. Su Xu was always frank about these things, even in bed. As long as she wanted to do something, she would immediately ask for Tan Xingwei’s consent, and once she got it, she would just do it.
Very satisfying.
The charm of an older sister.
“But you’re leaving on a business trip soon,” Tan Xingwei complained.
Su Xu did a quick mental calculation, seemed to understand what was going on, and looked at Tan Xingwei with her head tilted. “Then you’d better pray.”
Tan Xingwei: “Okay.”
She could only pray.
But the following days, because of the possibility of being the 1, became filled with anticipation.
Haha, so lewd.
Of course, she only asked about it that one time that night. Although Tan Xingwei was inwardly surging with excitement, she was still very shy on the surface.
All she could do was, on the Thursday afternoon before Su Xu’s business trip, secretly clip and file her nails while on the clock at work. Then, during dinner, she casually asked Su Xu, “Is your period over?”
Su Xu said, “It’s over.”
Tan Xingwei hummed, acting super calm. “Today’s chicken leg is delicious.”
Su Xu also hummed. “It’s the curry you like.”
Unable to hold it in, Tan Xingwei suddenly laughed.
It seemed Su Xu understood what Tan Xingwei was laughing about, because she laughed too.
A tacit understanding quietly spread through the air.
Su Xu pinched Tan Xingwei’s cheek. “Why are you so cute?”
Tan Xingwei: “I love it, I love it. I love anything Sister makes.”
Su Xu’s tone softened. “Good. If you like it, eat more.”
Tan Xingwei almost bit her tongue.
After dinner, they went for their usual walk, came back a little late to play a game, then followed Su Xu in doing yoga, and then they both went to shower one after the other.
All of this seemed just like before, yet not quite. The difference was Tan Xingwei; she was a little excited.
Just as Tan Xingwei was lying in bed, her heart in a flutter, the bathroom door opened.
The next second, Su Xu came out.
The second after that, Tan Xingwei almost had a nosebleed.
A deep purple slip dress, long curly hair, long legs—such a sexy sister.
Already lost in her fantasies, Tan Xingwei nearly fainted on the bed. This, this…
Holy crap.
Haha, hehe.
Just as Tan Xingwei thought the mood was right, Su Xu opened the closet and took out her suitcase.
Tan Xingwei: “…”
Baiting her like this?
But it was true, Su Xu hadn’t packed her luggage yet. This trip was for over a week, so it would take a while to pack.
Of course, Tan Xingwei didn’t stay idle. She could help a little, so she got out of bed.
The disposable items Su Xu usually used for business trips were in a drawer. Tan Xingwei counted the number of days, added a couple of extra sets, and carried them all to the suitcase.
Su Xu came over with the clothes she would need for the next few days and, taking advantage of Tan Xingwei squatting there, tossed them all onto the suitcase.
What could Tan Xingwei do? She could only dutifully stay there, fold Su Xu’s clothes, and place them inside.
A while later, Su Xu brought over her toiletries. A while after that, her cosmetics. And then, Su Xu brought over the brooch Tan Xingwei had given her.
Su Xu hadn’t thrown this away. She placed it down carefully.
After packing, Su Xu stood up, looking from side to side, probably thinking about what else she needed to bring.
Tan Xingwei also squatted and waited, but as she waited, her gaze was drawn to Su Xu’s hand.
It was really embarrassing, but she had been craving this hand for a long time.
Tan Xingwei didn’t think much, nor was there any preamble. She walked right over and kissed it.
Perhaps it was more than just a kiss.
So it was a little wet. Su Xu looked down.
Tan Xingwei pursed her lips, tilted her head up, and looked at Su Xu with pleading eyes.
Su Xu slowly closed her eyes and then opened them again. She hooked Tan Xingwei’s chin, lifting it.
Just as quickly, she pressed her thumb against the corner of Tan Xingwei’s mouth.
Tan Xingwei was instantly dizzy. She turned her head slightly and kissed the pad of Su Xu’s thumb.
Su Xu seemed to take a deep breath. She knelt down to be at the same height as Tan Xingwei and suddenly leaned against her.
With just that one movement, a different scent wafted over. It was a very faint fragrance, elusive, something different, from Su Xu’s neck.
Tan Xingwei wanted to smell more, to confirm if the scent was real, but Su Xu pulled away. Tan Xingwei was lured forward and almost fell.
“Does it smell good?” Su Xu asked.
So Tan Xingwei hadn’t been mistaken. She nodded. “It does.”
Su Xu looked pleased. She said slowly, “It’s to seduce you.”
Tan Xingwei was dizzy again. She looked at Su Xu with her puppy-dog eyes. “Sister~”
Su Xu moved closer to Tan Xingwei again.
Tan Xingwei got a new opportunity. She lowered her head, wanting to smell again.
But she didn’t get her wish. Her chin was once again held by Su Xu and lifted up.
Tan Xingwei looked up because of this.
Su Xu’s finger continued upward, lightly tracing Tan Xingwei’s lower lip. She asked, “Where will you kiss me first?”
