Regarding Those Matters of Me and My Little Sister - Chapter 69: Entanglement

Chapter 69: Entanglement

Lin Yin Yin was about to cry because of that little loli, but she didn't deserve sympathy. Instead, I wanted to laugh. She scolded me for not helping her.

I said you are basically hopeless with your IQ, how can I help you? She lunged at me: “It's all your fault!”

This has nothing to do with me, ah. I couldn't help but laugh as Lin Yin Yin grabbed my ear to vent her frustration. But then I saw someone coming downstairs out of the corner of my eye.

I hurriedly held her down with my hand: “Don't make a scene, there's someone.”

She also hurried to look over, and saw it was Ah Li. We both hurriedly shrank our heads and hid behind the stone bench to take a peek.

Ah Li seems to be a bit busy, walking rather hurriedly. Lin Yin Yin and I looked at each other and followed her.

Ah Li didn't leave the neighborhood, but went to the market that was close by. There was a small market on the other side of the neighborhood, but it was getting dark, so why is she going out now?

We were confused but followed her, and then saw her enter the market. It was small, but I guess it had enough to provide for the whole neighborhood or something.

As expected, we got a little closer and saw that the mini-mart had rice for sale, and Ah Li was scooping it up.

I couldn't help but think of the last time that loli said there was no rice at home. I was surprised: “Did her daughter give her the 10 yuan, they can’t be that poor right?”

Lin Yin Yin was stunned: “What?” I said that her family seemed to be not well-off, so she had to wait until now to buy rice.

Lin Yin Yin shook her head in disbelief: “My father likes her so much, how could she have no money to buy rice? Maybe she just happened to come here to buy rice.”

Normally I wouldn't have noticed this, but I heard the loli say last time that she wanted me to pay for rice, so if they had the money, why would she make me pay for rice only?

I said let's go to her daughter and ask and we'll see. Lin Yin Yin was very reluctant, but she also wanted to make sure.

So we just ran back as fast as we could, the building was bright with lots of lights, and Lin Yin Yin and I went straight to the fourth floor.

This time the door was closed, I guess since it was night, and I wasn't sure if her daughter would answer. I hurriedly knocked on the door, and after a short amount of time, the little loli came over and asked who it was, I said it was the good people who gave you money.

She seemed to have tiptoed to look at the peephole before opening the door with a little smile on her face: “You want to pay more?”

I choked for a moment and said no, I just needed to ask you something. She also saw Lin Yin Yin and gave an haughty grunt: “Ask away.”

Lin Yin Yin was so angry that her mouth twitched. I didn't care about their animosity and spoke: “Is your family very poor?”

The little loli nodded with a sigh: “Yes, my father died and my mother is out of work, so I have no money.”

Lin Yin Yin interjected, “Hum, why doesn't she just work? She's so lazy, she should know how to get rich!”

The little loli was furious: “You're the lazy one, my mom is taking care of me, and how would she even get rich while taking care of me?”

I didn't know where this was going, so I just interrupted them, it was better to just drop this. I then asked what Lin Yin Yin was mainly concerned about: “Do you know the man who is close to your mother? Why doesn't your mom ask him for money?”

The little loli knew Lin Yin Yin's father and said complainingly: “He gives money every time he comes to my house, but my mom doesn't want it, but she could just give it to me, geez.”

I gave Lin Yin Yin a look, her mouth puckered up and she just hummed lightly.

It'd probably be best if we left now. I took out a little more money and gave it to the loli, and told her not to tell anyone she got it from me.

She nodded cheerfully: “I know, otherwise mom wouldn't want it, I'll just say I got it from helping an old grandmother.”

She is quite understanding, I did not stay much longer, pulling Lin Yin Yin to quickly bolt away.

It didn't take long before we saw Ah Li coming back with a small bag of rice. It was a close call, we almost bumped into each other.

I asked Lin Yin Yin what she thought of her. She was silent for what felt like half an hour before she reluctantly said: “She's probably a good person.”

She rarely approved of Ah Li, that's good, but then she said: ” We can not take it lightly though, I still have tests for her.”

I said that you take your time, but right now we'd better go.

Then the two of us managed to leave, I didn't go to her home at this time, we said goodbye to each other, and left.

It was also dark, so I pondered what should I do? Maybe to see Li Xin, but there was something else I had to deal with.

And that was Qin Lan's letter, she wants me to “date” Yang Han Lu to avenge her. I thought as I walked, I would love to take revenge on Yang Han Lu for sure, but dating her doesn't seem safe.

I went all the way to the milk tea store, which is really crowded at this time, the milk tea store was full of people, with couples laughing and joking, gaining the envy of others.

I went in to find Li Xin, we have not seen each other for about two or three days, and now our relationship is fixed I naturally would not be too scared.

But at this moment when we're about to meet, I felt something strange, it seems that two or three days without seeing each other made our shyness slowly bubble up again.

I saw Li Xin smiling at me, her cheeks a little red. Sister Xia covered her face: “Ugh again with this, why are you two shy again?”

I said you don't understand, Xin'er has a specific kind of atmosphere to her. Li Xin stuck out her tongue, I didn't bother her afterwards, I just stood there waiting for her to get off work.

Sister Xia was kind enough to give me a cup of milk tea: “I knew you would come to drink.”

I rolled my eyes, I knew it wasn't for free. I just relaxed and talked with Li Xin every so often.

Everything was peaceful, but the one person who could upset me came once again.

Yang Han Lu came, she really did not look like a student, she dressed fashionably, walked leaving behind an aroma that attracted the eyes of men.

Li Xin immediately pursed her lips, but also did not forget to grab me a little, as if to warn me.

I can't help but laugh, why are you warning me? Yang Han Lu was still so flirtatious, smiling charmingly and disingenuously.

I did not want to do anything with her while in front of Li Xin, but Yang Han Lu ignored me this time and came straight to the counter to ask for some milk tea: ” Young lady, why are you staring at a paying customer like this?”

She knowingly asked this, Li Xin did not like her. But since Yang Han Lu came here as a guest, Li Xin forced out a smile: “Would you like some milk tea?”

Yang Han Lu giggled: “You're just like Li Chen.” I raised an eyebrow, Li Xin immediately frowned, Sister Xia saw that the atmosphere was very tense and pulled Li Xin away to serve Yang Han Lu: “Okay okay, it's okay I'll do it.”

Yang Han Lu's lips were hooped upwards to form a smile, before turning her head to look at me: “Li Chen brother, you are free?”

I shrugged, my voice deliberately lowered: “You'd better not do anything. We haven’t even gone over what you did with Qin Lan.”

She blinked and a smile sprang up on her face: “Didn't I tell you? I merely want to help my sister share your pain.”

Her tone and expression made me angry again, and I was so angry that I could not easily suppress it and now I was about to snap.

Sister Xia had placed the milk tea in front of Yang Han Lu, and she sucked on it as if trying to tease me, and glanced at me from the corner of her eyes.

Then I saw Li Xin bite her lips and go into the inner room, I was stunned, I hurriedly also went in, and once inside I saw her completely furious: “That …argh! Why is she always pestering you?”

I don’t understand what Yang Han Lu truly wants, she isn’t after me, she’s just like a poisonous snake that just wants to bite Qin Lan.

I don’t want to worry Li Xin about this so I just say, what am I that handsome? She stomped on my angrily: “You, you need to focus more on studying, she can do whatever she wants, you will ignore her, okay?”

She was so gentle while she was angry that I wanted to laugh: “Dajie, I don't care about her, it's you who cares about her.” (TN: He calls her older sister.)

She paused, then stepped on me again: “I am still afraid that you won't study, if you fall in love with her, I will have to cold war with you again, hum, and you would need to look after yourself.”

Ah, no way, we barely managed to just talk to each other. I said that I would not fall for her, Li Xin nodded and went out to work.

She really wants to control me, she must be afraid that I will waste time not studying. I also knew that she wasn’t accustomed to city life. In her heart, falling in love is far less important than studying, and adolescent love is even more unforgivable.

And we were also poor, she grew up suffering all the time, so she was always thinking about the future more than the average person, sadly I contributed to this.

I sighed a bit and went out, Yang Han Lu was still on the counter drinking milk tea, and Li Xin tried to not look at her.

I looked at Yang Han Lu, she also looked at me, intentionally pretending to be shy. Li Xin did not look over, but fiercely slapped some milk tea on the counter.

I coughed and left. Walking away and looking back, Yang Han Lu also came over and seemed to be looking forward to being with me.

I frowned and thought, a little nervous now, should I ask her out now? Should I chase her away?

She didn't know what I was thinking, but she came over and held my hand: “The night is so beautiful, do you want to go shopping together?”
