Regarding Those Matters of Me and My Little Sister

Li Xin just left, I stayed on the side of the road in the dark for a long time, and the bus has been gone for a while.

She is still disgusted with me after all, perhaps not wanting to meet with me, the three years of indifference and alienation, has resulted in the embarrassment of today.

I was embarrassed, embarrassed to try and chase her.

I sighed lightly, or maybe she's okay on her own, you shouldn’t be greedy.

I turned around and went back home to take a shower and lay down, thinking about hurrying to sleep, my heart was too tired. I couldn't sleep, and at about nine o'clock, my parents came back.

They usually come back at eight o'clock, but today they were an hour late. But I didn't care, I turned over and continued to lie down, and then I heard my mother's laughter: "More than 20,000 yuan, that's a lot." (TN: 2,956 USD good lord)

I raised my eyebrows and sat up. Then came my father's scolding voice: "She understands, finally, she knows how hard we work, we didn't raise her for nothing!"

I squeezed my fingers, excuse me?

I rushed out, and both of my parents looked at me, my father did not look happy, my mother had a soft smile: "Dinner?"

I asked in a strained voice: "Did you get the money?" My tone was not very positive, my father immediately scolded me again, and my mother rushed to smooth things over: "We received a phone call from the teacher, saying that Li Xin asked us to go to school. We went there and she gave us all her money, she is very understanding."

How did this happen? Li Xin went back to school and then handed over the money? What was she thinking?

I was anxious in my mind and asked did she say anything? My mother shook her head, and my father scolded me, "You're getting stiff, aren't you? She was in the wrong, shouldn't she have handed over the money? It's a good thing she smartened up or I'd had beat her!"

I was so angry that I turned red. Was Li Xin afraid of being beaten again? Or was she sick of being pestered by her parents?

I pursed my lips and walked back to my room. My parents had won after all, and Li Xin had not only been beaten, but also lost her money.

I kicked the bed a few times, with fire flaring up in my heart, and ended up having insomnia all night, only sleeping for a while when it was almost dawn.

When the sun came up my mother woke me up, saying that the weekend was over and I had to hurry to school.

She was very nice to me and gave me a few hundred yuan, her tone was a bit unnatural: "Don't you care about these things, mom and dad are doing it for your own sake."

I had a hundred words in my mind to retort, but nothing came out, it didn't matter what I said, they would always be like that.

I left in silence and took the morning bus back to school. In the car I began to think about Li Xin, she is now out of money, has no work, and the reason why she saved money was totally in vain.

I gritted my teeth and thought of Huang Mao, everything went wrong because of Huang Mao. If he went away, Li Xin might be able to go back to work, after all, my parents are happy for her to make money, and as long as she does not fall in love early.

I secretly swore, Huang Mao, that dumbass, die early and reincarnate ah!

When I got to school, the bell had already rung. I was marked by the janitor and rushed to the classroom.

The class had already started, and it was still the homeroom teacher's class. She did not look kindly at me and threw me an icy glare.

I simply returned to my seat and behaved. Zhang Xiong immediately glanced at me, and was gloating.

He and I are already at conflict, and it is only natural to gloat. I sighed lightly in my heart, I started to have bad luck again.

Ignoring him, I took care of myself in class. After class, I was called by the homeroom teacher and given a lecture, but luckily it was no big trouble and saved me a lot of energy.

She was worried about me: "You didn't come to study yesterday, did you go home?"

I said yes, something happened at home. She then asked what it was about. I didn't say anything, I took out some money and gave it back to her. She took the money and seemed to want to have a nice chat with me, but I didn't feel like it so I said something and walked away. (TN: In China, it's normal to give money to teachers as a gift.)

I was not in a good mood until after school, and my mind wandered a lot during class, the main thing was Li Xin's future, she definitely needs money, so now what?

I didn't rush to the cafeteria after school, but continued to think about it, not even noticing Lin Yin Yin coming over.

She shouted at me with uncertainty, which made me jump. She then gave a mischievous smile, "Scared?"

This loli tried to force a topic to talk about, I laughed bitterly and said I have no time to fool around with you. She was a little offended and asked me what was wrong.

I did not want to talk to her, but then I thought, she is the city's damsel, she must have connections. I just forced a smile: "President ah, I want to earn some money by working......"

She was stunned: "You want to go to work? Don't even try or just wait for winter break, I can refer you."

I said I can't wait, I need money urgently.

I didn't know what Li Xin was saving for, but I definitely needed to help her. Lin Yin Yin then asked me suspiciously what I had in mind. I refused to tell her, she was a little lost, and then lightly grunted: "I was so good to you and you still do not consider me a friend, that really angers me."

I was stunned by her comment and hurriedly waved my hands, "No, I'm sorry. It's just that this is something personal and I don't want to burden you with it."

She has always been a little noisy, and now she raised her head: "What if I want to be bothered?"

You know what? Fuck it. I saw her face raised in defiance, she looked like a child.

I was dumbfounded and laughed, and I told her about my sister. She was quite surprised: "No way? Your parents are that bad?"

I said I don't want to talk about them, I just want to make money. She rubbed her chin and nodded: "Your sister is really poor, you are also a good brother, but part-time work is very troublesome, and they generally do not want to hire students, you probably shouldn't work part-time."

I asked how I should make money without working part-time? She winked and smiled: "I'm still making money without a part-time job."

You make money? I looked at her in amazement, she pretended to cough, especially smug: "Ahem... I began to submit articles to magazines in junior high school, and have published five articles."

Shit, I couldn't believe it. I realized what she submitted, the students passed it between each other in story club ah, we never noticed it but she was the author of the article.

I hurriedly asked if I could really make money? Lin Yin Yin was enthusiastic, the corners of her mouth were going to be crooked: "Of course, writing thousands of words and with hundreds attempts, it will be very difficult, so don't try it with your current skills."

I said, "Don't be ridiculous, I'm going to submit a manuscript too. Lin Yin Yin snapped her fingers, "Yeah, you write it, I'll help you with the guard at the school, you should write short love stories, according to my research, this category is very hot."

How hard could that be? I ranked second in languages in my class and was very good at it too, so I was confident in myself, and now I found the motivation to do it.

I fantasize that I have become an actual writer, using hundreds of words. The first thing I did was to get a good idea of what I was doing.

I also ignored Lin Yin Yin, who was full of energy thinking about it. I used to read those magazines when I was in junior high school, and now I sat with my pencil for a while and started to imitate the plots of my predecessors.

As a result, I didn't even eat my lunch, and when I realized it, the dining hall was closed. I had no choice but to buy some cookies and go back to the dormitory to eat them.

After taking a nap and class starting again, I was still thinking about submitting my article, because I was so excited and couldn't wait to get money. I wrote a short essay of 2,000 words during class and was excited to show it to Lin Yin Yin once school was over.

Then she swept through it her eyes everywhere: "Not good enough, it's bloody and cliché, no one wants a thousand words of this."

I was embarrassed and depressed. Lin Yin Yin smiled smugly again: "You must endure pain in order to grow stronger then, continue to write."

I grumbled twice and went back to write again.

But her critique hit me pretty hard, and I couldn't think of a plot after that. And I went to the corridor feeling its breeze when I suddenly remembered one thing, and I immediately crouched.

Qin Lan ah, she and I agreed to meet yesterday at the Takasu High School, but I went home.

She is a female devil, although we have a good relationship, I still feel that she will show her face in a minute, and then I secretly sighed, not good.

I rushed to look for her, and went to Takasu High School in a hurry, but she was nowhere to be seen.

I ran around again to find her, passing by the milk tea store to look inside, only sister Xia cleaning the place.

Sighing in my heart, I quickly ran away.

Qin Lan does not live in school, so she should go out to eat now after school.

I looked inside restaurants, and finally found a luxurious restaurant when I saw her drinking tea inside.

I was relieved that she was really eating, but this place is too high-end, I have never been to a place like this.

It was hard to go inside, but I saw that she was a little dazed, and now and then she would hold her chin and sigh twice.

Why is this woman so sentimental? Are you so melodramatic to have a meal?

The waiter approached me, but I was busy waving my hand towards Qin Lan.

She inadvertently looked for a moment, and then made a face: "Oh, if it isn't the handsome boy from the seventh grade."

What kind of tone is that, why are you gloomy? I asked are you angry? I had an emergency yesterday.

She squinted and sneered: "Which girl has seduced you? Lin Yin Yin?" (TN: Oh-)

I don't know, you've got a big brain, what about Lin Yin Yin? I said no, I went home because something happened at home.

She clasped her hands and crossed her legs, lifting her tippy-toe upwards, with a very proud smile. Not to mention, she has a special aura that makes people pay attention to her, which I never felt before.

I looked away from her: "Hurry up and eat, later I will help you find a house to buy furniture, and I’ll only charge you 300 yuan." (TN: 44 USD)

She snorted: " I'm not giving you a dime, yesterday I waited for you all day, my legs were becoming numb from standing, do you want me to give you all of my hair?"

I was speechless, she was angry, and was really bad to deal with. I said well, I won't charge anything, and you won't have to give me any hair.

This was originally in line with her joking, but as soon as she finished her feelings suddenly felt odd, and when I looked at her, she also seemed odd.

My heart suddenly popped, I could not help but look at the palm of my hand. Qin Lan was immediately furious: "You son of a bitch!"

No one pointed it out, but we both knew it by heart, we all remembered the hair thing. I can't help but be embarrassed and uncontrollably be reminded of her shaved hair, resulting in a ghostly glance at her crotch.

Qin Lan's face is red with anger: "The fuck!"

I turned around and ran, my heart was also cursing myself, fucking puberty ah, why the fuck do you care about her hair.

Oh my god, hurry up and escape, before she goes crazy.
