Let Me Set the Record Straight: I'm Not Old! / So, Did Seele Escape... Only to Get Cut in Line?

However, a very unique change had occurred in the atmosphere between the two of them. Although neither Ling Xi nor Ying noticed this change, since everything happened so naturally, how could they have noticed it if they hadn't paid special attention?

"Hmm... something's not right!"

In the afternoon, Ling silently watched Ling Xi and her sister, and said thoughtfully, "Why does it feel like Ling Xi and Sister Ling Xi's relationship has become so good? They went out for breakfast together this morning, they even helped each other when playing games in the morning, and they even made lunch together... Hmm, something's not right!"

How could that be?

Sakura smiled with a hint of embarrassment, "We're staying at Ling Xi's house, and we're familiar with you, so it's only right that we help each other out, isn't it?"

"That's right."

Ling Xi nodded decisively and smiled, "You're my sister, therefore, your sister is my sister. So, your sister is mine. And of course, we should help each other when we're family. What's wrong with that?"

"Eh..."

Ling seemed to be stunned for a moment. She was Ling Xi's younger sister, and also her older sister's younger sister, so her older sister was Ling Xi's older sister, therefore her older sister was Ling Xi's... Why did something feel wrong?

"Okay, Rin, don't think too much about it."

Ling Xi gently patted Ling's head and smiled, "Anyway, no matter what, we are all family. Wouldn't it be better if the relationship between family members became closer?"

"Mmm..."

Upon hearing this, Ling seemed to nod thoughtfully, as if... there was nothing wrong with it.

"Ling Xi..."

After hesitating for a moment, Ling suddenly laughed and said, "I don't want you to be my brother."

"Ha?"

Ling Xi was taken aback for a moment, but after seeing Ling's expression, she smiled and said, "Why don't you want me as your older brother this time? I haven't made you do your homework lately, have I?"

"Hmph, that's because..."

Ling laughed directly and said, "I want you to be my brother-in-law..."

"Puff..."

"Cough..."

These words caused Seele and Sakura, who were drinking beverages, to spit them out.

"Eh... ha!"

Ling Xi was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. Sure enough, Ling thought that her relationship with Ying was perfectly normal!

However, to be fair, having a younger sister like this as an inside agent to help her older sister would make things much easier, and she certainly wouldn't mistreat her. But...

It's a pity, Rin, I just managed to win over your sister last night.

"Well, well..."

While suppressing a laugh, Ling Xi said, "That depends on what your sister thinks, Ying."

Cherry"..."

Sakura just rolled her eyes at Ling Xi; clearly, even someone as good-natured as Sakura didn't want to pay any attention to Ling Xi...

"See, Rin, your sister seems a little reluctant, so..."

Ling Xi gently picked up Ling and placed her on her lap, smiling as she said, "Ling, you have to help me persuade your sister. Once I succeed, I can discipline her with family rules whenever she forces you to study."

"Don't worry, I'll do my best!"

Ling was immediately filled with fighting spirit and nodded seriously!

Sakura: "..." I mean... when you're discussing things like this, can you at least respect my opinion a little? Even if you're just discussing it behind my back, that would be fine!

Chapter 273: Just to clarify, I'm not old!

"Seele, are you angry?"

About five minutes later, Ling Xi arrived at Seele's room, because Seele had clearly misunderstood her earlier teasing remarks, although...

Sakura and I both knew we were just teasing Rin, but... Seele didn't know that.

So Seele went straight back to her room without saying a word.

"No..."

Of course, when faced with Ling Xi's question, Seele still pouted arrogantly. Although she said no, her tone and expression clearly showed her dissatisfaction.

Ling Xi "..."

"Seele ..."

Faced with this situation, Ling Xi didn't know how to answer. After all... this was no longer a question of whether she wanted to or not, but a question of having done what she had to do. So... even though Seele seemed a little unhappy now, she couldn't give up on Ying.

"I already said I'm not angry..."

Seele shook her head helplessly and smiled, "It's normal for Ling Xi to like a good girl like Sister Ying. Besides... to be honest, I don't want to be separated from Sister Ying either, so... I think it's a good idea to use the method Ling just mentioned to keep Sister Ying here forever."

"Forehead..."

Seele's sudden reversal almost left Ling Xi speechless, and she asked somewhat exasperatedly, "Then why do you look a little unhappy?"

"Hmph, that's because Ling Xi is holding Ling instead of me."

Seele stood with her hands on her hips, looking quite self-righteous.

Ling Xi: "???"

"Yes, yes, I really can't do anything with you..."

Helpless, Ling Xi could only sit on the edge of the bed, then patted her thigh, "Come sit on it yourself!"

"Hey-hey!"

Seele then happily jumped into Ling Xi's arms, looking very happy.

"By the way, was what Seele just said true? She wants Sakura to stay with us."

After holding Seele, Ling Xi Seele to discuss the topic they had just discussed. After all, the Doctor must know about her and Sakura's relationship, and Elysia probably wouldn't object. No, she definitely wouldn't object, since that girl had said from the beginning that she wouldn't interfere in her relationships with other girls.

So now, only Seele needs to pay attention. And once even Seele agrees, then perhaps there's no need to hide anything about me and Sakura.

It feels like neither being with Mobius nor with Elysia is as smooth and successful as being with Sakura. After all, after getting together with Mobius, the two of them hid their relationship for a period of time for certain reasons.

And as for being with Elysia, well, that goes without saying. They played around in the dark for over three months. If Alicia hadn't kissed him live on the public chat at the Elysia, the Doctor might still not have found out.

As for Sakura...

As long as Seele has no objections, then if they got together last night, they can officially announce it today...

"Yes."

Faced with Ling Xi's question again, Seele nodded seriously and said, "After all, as I just said, Sister Ying is gentle, capable, and can do everything. She's simply the perfect wife and loving mother. Believe me, marrying her is definitely worth it!"

Ling Xi "..."

"I'm telling you, you're not even married into the family yet, and you're already thinking about finding other girls for me?"

Ling Xi looked at Seele with a half-smile and deliberately said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll fall in love with someone else and then leave you?"

"Hmph, no way..."

Seele pouted and snorted, "Sister Elysia said that for a pervert like Ling Xi, there's no way he'd let go of a cute girl like Seele, so what am I afraid of?"

Ling Xi: "..." Damn, what has Elysia taught Seele?

"Ahem, Seele, you can't slander someone's innocence out of thin air!"

In response, Ling Xi declared righteously, "I admit I'm an SP, but... I'm not old!"

Seele "..."

"Snort..."

To this, Seele simply snorted and laughed, "If that's the case, then don't you feel heartbroken to see such a perfect girl like Sister Sakura marry someone else?"

"Of course I can, of course I can."

Ling Xi answered almost without hesitation. After all, how could it be hard to accept that the person she loved was marrying someone else?

Therefore, in order to avoid feeling heartbroken, I can only compromise myself and marry them all. This is... the light of the righteous path!

"Yes, so..."

Seele smiled and looked at Ling Xi, "Ling Xi, go and win over Sister Ying. Don't worry, I won't have any ulterior motives. Besides, I really enjoy playing with Sister Ying too."

"Hehe, OK, I guarantee I'll complete the mission."

Seeing that Seele was persuading her like this, Ling Xi naturally agreed without hesitation, although... she had actually already dealt with Ying last night, or... let's remove the word "deal"?

"Oh, right, there's one more thing..."

Suddenly, Seele remembered something. She said, "Ling Xi, even if you've won over Sister Ying, you can't use any family rules to bully her."

"Oh..."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "I was just joking with Ling. Besides, we've been together for so long, have I ever bullied you?"

"Hmm... that seems to be true."

Seele thought about it and realized that Ling Xi was right. Although Ling Xi treated enemies and certain annoying people very badly, she would never take her anger out on herself or the Doctor. So, being with Ling Xi meant that she didn't have to worry about being bullied.

Well, of course, some kind of bullying is unavoidable!

"That's good..."

Seele nodded in satisfaction and smiled, "After all, Ling is still young, so she should do more homework. As long as Ling Xi don't use your brother-in-law status to help Ling reduce her homework, that's fine."

Ling Xi: "???"

Good grief, Seele, you... you really are Black Seele.

Although her initial arrogant personality has changed a lot, it seems she only acts this way in front of me. Once I'm not around, she easily reverts to her true nature. But...

Ling Xi didn't object to not reducing homework. After all, how could a childhood without homework be called a childhood?

Poor Ling, she's caught in the middle...

Achoo...

On the other side, Rin, who was trying to persuade her older sister to halve her homework in the future, suddenly sneezed.

"Ring, you have a cold?"

Upon hearing that Rin had sneezed, Sakura immediately inquired about her condition with concern.

"No, no, my nose is just itchy."

Ling quickly shook her head and continued, "Sister, what do you think of what I just said? Ling Xi... is a very outstanding person!"

Sakura: "..." Did you even need to tell me? And...

Why am I so smart, but my sister is so stupid?

How will this girl survive if I'm not around anymore?

Chapter 274: So, Seele escaped again... and got cut in line?

"Doctor ..."

That evening, Mobius returned home, only to be confronted at the door by Ling Xi.

"Hey... what's wrong?"

Because of what happened last night, Mobius is feeling a little embarrassed.

"That milk tea last night... did you add something weird to it?"

Ling Xi didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point, asking about the key issues.

"Well... it's my first time making milk tea, so I inevitably made some mistakes with the ingredients."

Meanwhile, Mobius had already guessed that Ling Xi knew about the things he had added to his food. Although he didn't intend to add anything to Ling Xi's Ling Xi, after all, who could stand it if he did?

However, things didn't go as planned. Who knew that because of Sakura's fancy actions, Seele, who was supposed to drink it, didn't get a single drop. Instead, Yae Sakura and Ling Xi drank it all. Can you blame yourself for that?

Ling Xi: "..." I don't believe you for a second...

"Alright, what's done is done. Do you still want to back out?"

Finally, Mobius simply gave up on denying it and snorted, "Don't look like you've gotten the better deal and are now complaining. Even a girl as outstanding as Sakura hasn't said anything, so who gives you the right to complain?"
