"I got up this morning and immediately noticed that Ye Lingling wasn't in the dorm."
"As her best friend, I know exactly how many hairs she has down there. She loved sleeping in, and without me waking her up, she simply couldn't get out of bed..."
Dugu Yan held a cup of milk in her small hands and smiled faintly, her eyes fixed directly on Qin Moyu.
Qin Moyu rubbed his nose and gave a light cough, trying to explain. "Uh, well... Yan, the thing is..."
Before he could finish, Dugu Yan stepped forward and covered his mouth with her hand. Then she sighed softly. "Brother Mo Yu, I'm not angry about that..."
"I never minded you having other girls. After all, I'm only the second one. Big Sis Xue Ke is the first."
"What makes me angry is that I was clearly here first, yet Ye Lingling got ahead of me! That second girlfriend spot should have been mine!"
Dugu Yan pouted, folding her arms across her chest with an indignant look, her tone thick with jealousy.
Qin Moyu blinked, looking thoughtful.
So girls cared about this sort of thing? He quietly committed it to memory...
"So that's how it is..."
Qin Moyu stepped forward and gently wrapped Dugu Yan in his arms, soothing her. "Actually, to me, every one of you is unique. There's no such thing as first or second..."
"If you say so~ Hmph~!"
Most of the jealousy in Dugu Yan's heart faded. She blinked her lively eyes, gave a sly smile, and coquettishly said, "Fine, but you have to spend time with me today. Let Gray Wind take care of Sister Ye Lingling, okay?"
"Alright, alright. Whatever you say."
Qin Moyu smiled helplessly as he gently stroked Dugu Yan's long emerald-green hair, his tone tender.
