Dear Sister, I forgot the rest, anyway, good luck!

Chapter 73 Dear Sister, I forgot the rest, anyway, good luck (Please subscribe to the first issue)

Jiang Yubai was pondering a very serious question.

That's Lin Tingwan's illness... Is it curable?

Although she initially shut herself off completely, she is now willing to come to his house for a meal.

Even when he occasionally brings snacks, you can catch a fleeting look of anticipation on his little face.

Even though things are getting better, we can't rely on talking therapy forever, can we?

You're saying... that just talking and a hug can cure this kind of heartache? That's really unrealistic.

Besides, he only chats with Lin Tingwan for about ten or twenty minutes each day, but what about the time she spends at home?

In that small room, was she sitting alone on the bed, hugging her knees, quietly gazing out the window for the entire day?

If things continue like this... will things really get better?

Just as I was pondering this, the bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

The Chinese teacher on stage adjusted her glasses, her gaze sweeping over the somewhat restless students below: "Ahem, we'll go over the remaining half of the test paper tomorrow. Alright, school dismissed."

The students cheered, accompanied by scattered shouts of "Long live the teacher!", and then began to pack their things.

Jiang Yu shook his head to come to his senses, then stuffed the exercise paper spread out on the table into his schoolbag and zipped it up.

He finished packing in two minutes, and as soon as he slung it over his shoulder and turned around, his movements suddenly froze.

Lin Jianxia hadn't left early; instead, she was standing silently in the aisle diagonally opposite him, watching him intently.

The setting sun cast its rays slanting into the classroom, bathing her lowered eyelids in a golden light.

But those beautiful eyes were hidden in the shadows, revealing an indescribable and inexplicable quality.

A sense of melancholy?

Jiang Yubai's heart skipped a beat.

Damn, did I do something to her?

His mind raced, replaying his entire day in his head.

I praised her for making delicious breakfast this morning, and on the way to school, apart from asking Lin Tingwan a question, I remained as quiet as a chicken the whole time.

During morning self-study, he focused on memorizing vocabulary and didn't even glance at her.

He didn't bother them at lunchtime, and behaved himself all day, not even passing them a single note...

No, she did take the draft notebook over this morning, looked at it for a while, and then returned it.

Could they be searching for evidence of a crime?

But those were conversations written a few days ago. Even if something was said inappropriately back then, the statute of limitations has expired, hasn't it?

Or was it that I was sitting too close to her chair while eating breakfast?

Even so, there's no need to wait until after school to settle accounts.

Jiang Yubai felt increasingly uncertain as he thought about it, and tentatively asked, "Um, Lin... Lin Tingwan, do you want to come along?"

If you disagree, he'll run away on the spot.

But Lin Jianxia on the other side seemed to have been waiting for these words, and nodded emphatically.

hiss..

Jiang Yubai felt even more uncertain.

Did he get caught touching someone's sister inappropriately?

But since things had come to this, he could only nod reluctantly and say, "Then... let's go."

Jiang Yubai stepped out the door, and Lin Jianxia silently followed beside him. The two walked out of the school gate side by side.

It's a bit... subtle, actually.

It seemed that it had indeed been a long time since he and Lin Jianxia had walked out of the school gate side by side like this.

Ever since that weekend, Lin Jianxia has always been the one who slips out of the classroom first, head down, hurrying along, and blending into the crowd of students leaving school.

He leisurely packed his things, then strolled out after a while, only to "accidentally" catch up with her at an intersection.

...Now that I think about it, maybe I felt ashamed to be seen with him.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yubai's expression became somewhat subtle.

Ah, the wall of my heart seems to have gotten a little thicker.

Wait a minute, why did I wait for him specifically today?

Could it be...

I confess, it was your sister who started it.

With these random thoughts swirling in his mind, he couldn't help but turn his head and steal a few glances at the girl beside him.

But as he watched, Jiang Yubai's brows gradually furrowed.

Why does Lin Jianxia seem a little off today?

Although she usually only speaks after entering the house, there has never been a day like this.

He looked listless, as if all his energy had been drained, and he appeared dejected.

His little head was almost drooping to his chest, so low that Jiang Yubai began to doubt whether he was even looking where he was going.

Just as he was wondering, Jiang Yubai glanced ahead subconsciously, and then quickly grabbed Lin Jianxia who was standing next to him.

Lin Jianxia was pulled to a sudden stop, and as if just coming to her senses, she looked at him with a somewhat blank expression.

"no?"

Jiang Yubai said irritably, "Lin Jianxia, ​​don't you watch where you're going?"

If he hadn't pulled him back in time, we probably would have heard a loud "Duang!" and his little head would have bumped into a telephone pole.

Lin Jianxia's reaction seemed to be a beat slow.

She pursed her lips, but instead of looking at the telephone pole that was so close by, she lowered her head and looked at the arm that he was holding.

Jiang Yubai subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back, but after a pause, he used his arm to pull the guy to his inside.

After doing all that, he finally let go and casually instructed, "Hey, you walk inside me, it's safer that way, remember to watch where you're going."

Surely you can't blame yourself for the physical contact? Given Lin Jianxia's current condition, she's probably going to fall headfirst into a ditch.

If you dare to blame yourself...

He'll apologize superficially, then go to your room to ask your sister for a hug.

..oh."

A soft, gentle response came from inside my ear.

Jiang Yubai paused, looking to his side with some surprise.

Did Lin Jianxia just... say "yes"?

Although the girl beside him still looked a bit listless, there was finally a hint of life in her eyes.

Jiang Yubai was puzzled, but wisely refrained from asking further questions. He simply kept a close eye on the road conditions and led her toward the residential area.

As usual, after buying some food at the snack street, the two entered the apartment building one after the other.

At the entrance of the corridor, Jiang Yubai waved to Lin Jianxia: "Then I'll go talk to Lin Tingwan first. Call me when dinner is ready."

After saying that, he pushed open the door and went into the room.

Lin Jianxia stood in the dimly lit corridor, staring quietly at the closed door for a long while before pursing her lips, turning around, and walking towards the room.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yubai was naturally unaware of what was happening behind him.

He walked to Lin Tingwan's door with practiced ease, and subconsciously raised his hand to knock, but his movement suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Looking at the small cake in his hand, Jiang Yubai hesitated, which was unusual for him.

He usually takes Lin Tingwan to her favorite barbecue restaurant, but today, after thinking about it, he felt that she had been eating too much barbecue lately and it was unhealthy, so he went to the side and bought a small cake.

But... what if she doesn't like it?

How about I go downstairs now and buy two more skewers of chicken wings? It's not far anyway.

Should we go in first and then discuss it?

After all, if he really doesn't like it... he can always go down and buy it later.

The thought had barely crossed Jiang Yubai's mind when he was taken aback.

Wait.

Speaking of which, how many times have I thought about Lin Tingwan today...?

Isn't that a bit too much?
