Chapter 174 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess

Eating is a very ordinary family meal, even though Nan Yin's cooking skills are good, the limit is just a bowl of beef noodles. In the end, Nan Xi could only compliment Nan Yin on the soup. To be fair, it was really good, and this praise brought the two sisters a little closer. After dinner, it was natural for Nan Xi to stay overnight. Even though moving in was only brought up a moment ago, Jiang Mi and Xia Yi Yi were not around, so it was fine for Nan Xi to stay in either of their rooms. However, at night, as Nan Yin was finishing washing up and preparing to go to bed, she heard a knock on the door. Opening it, unsurprisingly, Nan Xi was standing outside with a pillow. "Nan Xi? What are you doing?" Nan Yin tilted her head, puzzled, not knowing what Nan Xi wanted in the middle of the night. "Sister…" Nan Xi's expression was somewhat awkward. "Can we sleep together tonight? I want to chat with my sister." Sleep together? To be honest, if it were Jiang Mi or Xia Yi Yi standing outside, Nan Yin might consider it, as only she would suffer when sharing a bed with them. But if it was Nan Xi… Who would refuse a girl who called you sister so sweetly? Nan Yin didn't say anything, just made room for Nan Xi to come in. "Sister's room is quite small," Nan Xi observed Nan Yin's room after coming in. It was indeed small; compared to Jiang Mi and Xia Yi Yi's rooms with ensuite bathrooms and balconies, Nan Yin's room didn't look like the master bedroom a hostess would reside in. The furnishings were also minimal; apart from a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe, the rest was irrelevant decor. "Because I often don't come home," Nan Yin answered with a smile after closing the door behind her. "Most of the time, only you, Jiang Mi, and Xia Yi Yi are here. I only come back occasionally, so I let go of the larger room." Nan Yin was speaking the truth. With her current status, she didn't need to be thrifty. For example, the rest area near her office was larger than a bedroom. However, due to her pragmatic nature, she gave off the impression of being frugal. "Is that so?" Nan Xi didn't ask further after hearing Nan Yin's reason. She obediently sat by the bed, appearing like a well-behaved elementary student. "Then," suddenly alone in the same room with Nan Xi, Nan Yin felt a bit at a loss for a moment. She smiled with her hands behind her back and asked, "Are you hungry? There's some supper in the fridge." Having just eaten, it was impossible to be hungry. Nan Xi naturally shook her head. Nan Yin was momentarily silent, then went to take a shower - if there was nothing to do, all that was left was to go to bed. As there was no ensuite, Nan Yin could only go outside to shower. Sitting on the bed, Nan Xi watched her sister's figure. Her earlier discomfort was clearly just an act. "Um… Should I avoid for a while?" Suddenly, a voice came to Nan Xi's mind - Ou Er Mo Si's voice. "Why should you avoid?" Nan Xi furrowed her brows, not understanding Ou Er Mo Si's decision. "Well, I'm afraid I might hear something I shouldn't. You know," Ou Er Mo Si tried to put it delicately. "Why would you hear something you shouldn't?" Nan Xi's tone was getting less pleasant. "Ou Er Mo Si, if you want to say something, say it clearly." However, no matter how much Nan Xi questioned him, Ou Er Mo Si remained silent. Nan Xi had no choice but to temporarily ignore the person in her mind and lay on the bed with her eyes closed, suddenly hugging the nearby blanket. It smells so nice… Sister's scent. Although Nan Yin had been a girl for a long time, her capable personality had been maintained. The time she took for washing up wasn't comparable to a typical girl, and it was much shorter even compared to a boy. Thus, after Nan Xi closed her eyes and rested for a while hugging the blanket, Nan Yin had already dried her hair and come in. "Nan Xi? Are you asleep?" Nan Yin saw Nan Xi lying down with her eyes shut and thought her sister had fallen asleep, so her voice involuntarily softened a bit. "..No, sister." Nan Xi opened her eyes and looked at her sister in front of her, suddenly feeling a bit dazed. A pretty girl who had finished her shower was often described with a phrase - looking as fresh as a daisy. At that moment, Nan Yin perfectly fit this description, or rather, Nan Xi believed this phrase wasn't enough to describe Nan Yin at the moment. The snow-white long hair, damp from the shower, slid down from the girl's fragrant shoulders. Her perfect body was barely wrapped in a thin towel. Perhaps from being observed for a long time, the girl's fair skin suddenly blushed, and her wine-colored eyes drifted uncomfortably to the side. Her cherry lips were tightly pursed, showing visible awkwardness. Of course, what concerned Nan Xi even more was the pair of cat ears that suddenly appeared on her sister. Whether due to the water or not, Nan Yin's snow-white cat ears were in a complete disheveled state. Coupled with the girl's shy expression at the moment, Nan Xi truly had the urge to reach out and touch them. "Um…" Nan Yin couldn't endure Nan Xi's gaze any longer. She spoke up, interrupting the awkwardness. "Is there something on my face?" Being interrupted, Nan Xi's eyes darkened for a moment. She silently shook her head to indicate that nothing was wrong. After that, there weren't any more small incidents. Nan Yin lay on the bed in her position, looking at the ceiling, and Nan Xi also obediently lay down beside her. For a time, the two sisters remained silent, unable to bring up the topics they had planned earlier. Unable to bear it, Nan Yin felt that the atmosphere couldn't remain cold like this, so she spoke the first words, a normal concern from a sister to her younger sister: "Nan Xi, how have things been at school? Can you understand the classes?" "Yeah." "I heard you're all taking special ability practice classes, which are completely different from the theoretical courses in high school. So, I'm worried you might not understand." A sentence of concern, a reply - the elder sister and the younger sister gradually opened up to each other with each question and answer. In the end, Nan Xi gently hugged her sister beside her. "Sister…" The warm embrace of her sister almost made Nan Xi feel this way for the first time in the past ten or so years. In that instant, Nan Xi thought of many things from the past. The readers' group has been reported for some reason, and no one knows why. The new group is 559462731.
