Chapter 134

She wasn't very familiar with Xia Fen, but that familiar shrimp-headedness and sense of humor were practically identical to Xia Yan's, making her momentarily think she was with him... They truly were siblings. Thinking of Xia Yan, Hua Xin felt even more guilty. Not only towards him, but also towards his sister. What was wrong with her? The girl wondered, somewhat confused. She both longed for Xia Yan and rejected Xia Yan. It was as if she could see Xia Yan's presence in every corner of her life. She thought of him when she wanted to do a live stream, when she went out, worried about him when she wanted to sleep, and even thought of him when she was with his sister... He shouldn't have been bewitching her, right? Pulling herself back from her thoughts, she said softly, her voice full of apology, "I'm sorry..." "Does it hurt a lot? I was a little rough just now..." Hua Xin apologized earnestly, like a child who had done something wrong. Xia Fen, who wanted to tease the girl a little more, was stunned by the scene and quickly waved her hands, "No, no, no, no!" "It doesn't hurt at all." She stuck out her tongue a little embarrassedly, "I just wanted Sister Xin Hua to stop being angry with my brother." [Something's not right... nine out of ten things are not right] [How could such a beautiful person be so sensitive?] Xia Fen remembered the young ladies from various second and third-generation families she had seen in Baijing. Many of them, whose looks and temperament were far inferior to Hua Xin's, were very confident and rarely showed such guilt and fear... such inferiority complex? Could it be that her brother was hiding something from her? Xia Fen was becoming more and more aware of the truth behind Xia Yan and Hua Xin becoming friends and Hua Xin's disguise as a man. "That's good." "I... I'm not angry with him." Seeing that Xia Fen wasn't angry, the girl breathed a sigh of relief, then crossed her hands on her lap and said in a deliberately calm tone, "It's good that he's not angry with me..." "Last time I left in a hurry without even saying goodbye to him, and... and I even misunderstood him and you..." Hua Xin awkwardly spread her fingers and then clenched them. To be honest, at that time she was only a tiny bit jealous and heartbroken... After all, at that time she was "Gu Xin Hua"! Anyone would feel heartbroken and incredulous to see the man they were shopping with making such intimate gestures with another woman, right? Uh, something seems a little off? "Sister Xin Hua, it's okay. Ultimately, it was because I was curious and followed my brother that this happened." Xia Fen scratched her head sheepishly, then blinked. "How about... Sister Xin Hua, you go on another date with your brother?" "Disneyland? Cinema? Hot springs? Beach? All kinds of delicious food!" "My brother is very rich, Sister Xin Hua, you can just shower him with gold coins!" She looked expectantly at the petrified girl before her. A date? The word magnified in Hua Xin's mind, finally forming a tangible heart shape that rushed to her fair face. For the girl, meeting Xia Yan was a very simple concept of "going out to play," like eating hot pot, singing karaoke, taking a train like county magistrates... It was just a simple shopping trip! Eating together, shopping, buying things, drawing prizes, maybe holding hands, hugging, and then posting on social media to announce it... Uh, it actually does seem like a date. Hua Xin fell silent for a moment, then forced a smile and refused, "I've been a bit busy lately... let's wait a bit..." Wait a bit?! If she waited a bit longer, she'd run away and never play any more dating games with Xia Yan?! "Okay..." "Sister Xin Hua, how did you and your brother meet?" Xia Fen, who had just been feeling a bit disappointed, suddenly threw out another difficult question, her innocent eyes revealing no deliberate curiosity. It was as if the girl was simply looking for a topic to keep the atmosphere from getting cold. "... We played games together, and we happened to be in the same match. He beat me horribly, and I was so angry I added him as a friend and challenged him to a duel, but I got beaten again. In a fit of rage, I chased after him and cursed him for almost a month. Then Niu Niu disappeared, and I wanted to try Online Relationship and get some free coins..." How could she say that?! Wasn't that just spilling her entire dark history?! "We met through games," Hua Xin said calmly. The carriage returned to a smooth ride. An expected answer. Xia Fen nodded in sudden realization, then immediately grabbed Hua Xin's arm, who hadn't yet reacted, and stood up, heading towards the exit. "We were so engrossed in our conversation that we didn't notice we'd arrived!" "Where are we going, Xiao Fen?" The subway station near the city center was packed with people, and the noisy environment made Hua Xin speak a little louder to the girl beside her. "Sacred Fire Meow Cult Cat Cafe! It just opened recently! The top courtesan there, Little Green, is really hot!" Xia Fen replied loudly. "? Little Green? Top courtesan?" Anyone who didn't know better would think the two were going to a brothel. But that name... Hua Xin frowned slightly; she seemed to have a vague memory of that name. Why did it sound so familiar? 111. The Love of the Green Snake and the Spring Breeze Elf? After exiting the subway, walk straight for 1000 meters, then turn left for 2000 meters, turn right for 200 meters, turn left for 200 meters again, and finally walk straight for 15 meters. It's near Nanjing Street, but they didn't choose to stay in the mall. Fortunately, there were plenty of customers here. Shanghai... as long as it's not in the suburbs near the center, there's never a shortage of humans, more numerous than cockroaches. Hua Xin paused slightly, looking up at the simple, cute Q-version signboard. Just as she was about to sigh that her feet were aching from walking all the way, Xia Fen pushed open the door and entered... She took back what she had said earlier. These two siblings were practically born from the same father. "Boss! Call out your top courtesans, Little Green and Xiao Bai, I'm going to pamper them properly! Hehehehehehehe..." "Two more servings of original Tiramisu, two pots of warm Cappuccino, a quiet spot, tipping is negotiable!" Xia Fen said excitedly, hands on her hips, a not-so-cheeky smile on her face, as if she were a customer of a brothel or foot bath place that many people in ancient and modern times liked to frequent. The girl took two steps back, standing aside with an "I don't know her" look, her gaze passing through the chuunibyou-filled Xia Fen as she observed the scene inside. The black and white checkered floor was spotless, unlike some shops where cat hair littered the floor. The wallpaper on the surrounding walls was also decorated in warm colors, and the small lamps and ornaments with a soft, warm glow created a relaxing atmosphere. The wooden tables and elegant chairs were also carefully chosen, without using cheap materials to cut costs. Inside, you could see men and women happily petting Hachimi. Hmm... the girl shifted her gaze from the price list by the entrance. Compared to the luxurious and trendy layouts she occasionally saw in videos, Hua Xin definitely preferred this layout and style. (It wasn't just the buy-one-get-one-free or second-person half-price discount that made her feel relieved.)
