evening.
Room 1001, Building 17, Tangning New Residence East District.
Xia Yunuo was helping out in the kitchen, looking at Xia Kening who was cooking with suspicion, and couldn't help but ask, "I never see you cooking usually, why are you being so proactive today?"
"I've always been proactive, it's just that you guys usually do all the work and haven't given me a chance," Xia Kening said with a snort, raising her chin. "I can also contribute to the family, you know."
"Really?" Xia Yunuo no longer believed Xia Kening's nonsense.
He previously claimed he was going to be Song Yunshen Shen's gaming proxy, but wasn't that just an excuse to brush her off?
Today, he volunteered to cook again, I wonder what he's up to.
Watching Xia Kening intently chopping vegetables and cooking, Xia Yunuo felt something was off. After thinking for a moment, she couldn't help but tentatively ask, " Ningning."
"Um?"
"Aren't you going to play games with Song Yunshen every day now?"
"That wasn't playing games," Xia Kening corrected earnestly. "I was there for work, helping him with game boosting."
Before, this statement might have been somewhat inaccurate, but in the past few days, Song Yunshen has handed over his account to Xia Kening.
I've been gradually handing over various routine tasks to her.
There are still some issues with her technique. Xia Kening can't beat the Abyss yet, so she needs to seriously study the techniques of conventional teams and also learn about advanced elemental theory.
Anyway, Song Yunshen himself hadn't studied that stuff much; he only knew the most basic elemental reactions and didn't understand anything else.
Previously, the Abyss and similar dungeons were always run by proxy. He could beat them himself, but he always timed out on the last two levels.
He's not a player who relies on precise controls; he's more interested in exploration, story progression, survival, and building.
I'm not interested in fighting and killing.
Xia Kening is now officially employed, and with the revenue sharing from her pioneering videos, her monthly income, while far less than her two older sisters, is still enough to earn a small amount of three or four hundred yuan.
That's almost a month's worth of her food expenses.
Xia Yunuo didn't care what she was going there for, and just continued to probe, "So what kind of person do you think he is?"
Upon hearing this question, Xia Kening immediately turned her head suspiciously. "Sister, why are you suddenly asking such a question?"
"Just asking casually."
"I don't think it's casual at all," Xia Kening chuckled. "My classmate Xiao Mengdie used to have a crush on a boy. Guess what questions she asked us in the dorm?"
"What?" Xia Yunuo was a little confused.
"She asked us, 'What kind of person do you think so-and-so is?'" Xia Kening said, suppressing a laugh.
"What do you mean?" Xia Yunuo finally realized what was going on and said irritably, "I was just asking casually, if you don't want to tell me, fine!"
"Sis, if you admit you have a crush on Song Yunshen, then I'll say it," Xia Kening said with a mischievous smile.
"I don't like him at all!" Xia Yunuo immediately denied, her cheeks flushed red, and she turned and left angrily, "I'm not talking to you anymore, you can cook for yourself."
Seeing her reaction, Xia Kening immediately pouted, thinking to herself, "If you don't like Song Yunshen, why didn't you resist when I touched your head and pinched your cheeks this afternoon?"
He's clearly hiding something!
Sigh... I, as the younger sister, am really worried sick about my older sister's love life.
Seriously, did Song Yunshen really never pat his second sister's head before?
So, does that mean I'm helping Song Yunshen speed up his pursuit of my second sister?
Thinking of this, Xia Kening frowned, and felt a little regretful.
Next time, listen to Song Yunshen and don't lay a hand on me.
Yes, that's definitely not a good idea.
A while later.
Xia Yunuo went back into the kitchen to continue assisting her.
She was still a little worried about leaving her younger sister to cook alone in the kitchen.
Xia Kening glanced at her second sister, waited a moment, and then spoke, "As for Song Yunshen..."
Hearing her suddenly say this, Xia Yunuo turned to look at her, only to see Xia Kening with a mocking expression and no intention of continuing. Her face darkened, and she turned away.
Are you sick? If you're going to say something, just say it; if you're not going to say it, then don't.
"I was just thinking," Xia Kening chuckled, then rolled her eyes and deliberately said, " Song Yunshen actually..."
He's a nice person.
"Hmm." Xia Yunuo nodded gently, agreeing with her statement. "And then?"
"However, he has one major flaw," Xia Kening said seriously.
"What?" Xia Yunuo immediately perked up her ears, very curious about what kind of image Song Yunshen had in Xia Kening's eyes.
"A bit lecherous," Xia Kening whispered in Xia Yunuo's ear.
Lustful?
Xia Yunuo's face stiffened, and she immediately thought of the Song Yunshen express.
Even if she wanted to defend Song Yunshen, she was powerless to do so.
Xia Kening is right, Song Yunshen is indeed a little bit lecherous.
But it's actually not so bad, is it?
He only thought about it in his mind at most, and Xia Yunuo didn't think it was a big deal.
But why does Ningning also think Song Yunshen is lecherous?
She couldn't hear Song Yunshen thoughts. Could it be that Song Yunshen had done something to her?
Thinking of this, Xia Yunuo's expression changed slightly, and she couldn't help but ask, "Why do you think he's lecherous?"
"Don't you think so, sister?"
"No, I didn't feel anything."
"Oh, that's true." Xia Kening deliberately glanced at Xia Yunuo's chest, then lifted her own breasts through her apron and said to her, " Song Yunshen keeps peeking at me here."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yunuo clicked her tongue and silently clenched her fists again.
Song Yunshen had never peeked at her there!
I have often secretly complained about it in my inner thoughts.
Several times!
Xia Yunuo fell silent and quietly washed the vegetables.
But Xia Kening, standing to the side, wouldn't let it go, and deliberately leaned closer with a chuckle, "Didn't Song Yunshen peek at my sister here?"
Could it be that they're not looking because they can't tell?
"Get out!" Xia Yunuo said irritably. "Can't you pay more attention to your appearance? Wear looser clothes and learn to protect yourself."
"He's just looking, he won't really bully me," Xia Kening said. "He even complimented my stockings, before that..."
He really liked the stockings with emojis on them; they were originally yours, sister.
Xia Yunuo:
Take a deep breath, take a deep breath.
Stay calm and peaceful.
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
Xia Yunuo tried to calm herself down.
From another perspective, since Song Yunshen and Xia Kening could swap souls, Song Yunshen might have already seen his sister naked.
What does it matter what Xia Kening is saying about breasts and stockings?
But thinking about it this way, Xia Yunuo became even more unhappy.
Why does Ningning look so proud?
You swapped souls with someone, and that boy saw your whole body, and you don't have any complaints at all?
Or did they reach some kind of agreement, so Song Yunshen hasn't actually seen it yet?
I wonder what this soul-swap state is like.
Is it possible that after the swap, the person could still sense their own body's condition?
So, after the switch, Song Yunshen couldn't do anything bad?
Xia Yunuo could only try to think of things in a positive light.
She did want to confront Xia Kening directly, but on the one hand, she didn't have any substantial evidence. If Xia Kening denied it, she wouldn't be able to prove it, since she couldn't voluntarily reveal her true feelings.
On the other hand, she didn't really want to confront him directly. Since she already knew the truth, she figured she could just ignore him from now on as long as she couldn't hear his Song Yunshen feelings anymore.
It's not a big problem.
She now holds the initiative.
Holding the biggest secret about her younger sister, she was now in a position to attack or defend, and she wanted to see what other tricks her little sister could pull.
"Focus on cooking, don't get distracted," Xia Yunuo told her to talk less, glancing at her younger sister who was almost half a head shorter than her. "Should I get you a stool? Can you reach the stove?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Kening immediately snorted, "Sister, you're not that much taller, you're not the eldest sister."
The two sisters were locked in a fierce battle in the kitchen, the atmosphere thick with tension.
The two only calmed down after Yan Zhenxia got off work and returned home.
The three dishes were successfully cooked, and the three family members sat around the dining table to begin their dinner.
Yan Zhenxia has been in a good mood lately.
She had previously asked her boss for an advance of one month's salary, a total of four thousand yuan, to pay rent and enroll Xia Kening in a summer math tutoring class.
A few days ago, she successfully got her manuscript approved, and according to the studio's rules, she received a bonus of four thousand yuan, which offset her advance salary.
In this way, she will still be able to receive her salary as usual next month.
Judging from the current progress, as long as she maintains this pace, the script for this short drama will definitely be completed within a month.
If she can maintain this momentum next month and get her manuscript approved once more, her monthly income will be guaranteed at least eight thousand yuan!
This is much higher than the total salary she earned from her previous two jobs.
Thanks to Song Yunshen for posting that message on WeChat Moments, otherwise, if I had missed it, I don't know how long I would have had to work at least two jobs every day.
To be honest, Yan Zhenxia originally thought she wasn't suited to writing short plays.
When they heard that I had only graduated from high school, they didn't look down on me. As long as I could type and my writing was grammatically correct, that was fine with me.
After learning their method for a few days, the things I wrote actually looked just like them.
Especially since it's an adaptation, not a purely original work, and it has the support of the original content, she only needs to modify it according to the short drama format.
It's not that difficult.
After a few back and forths, it actually turned out to be successful.
The studio's editor-in-chief said that all of them, the partners, only knew how to write male-oriented novels, and they never expected to be able to train such a newcomer who is so good at writing female-oriented novels.
Yan Zhenxia is full of energy now, and all she wants to do after dinner is continue working on her manuscript at home.
I'll try to finish this draft as soon as possible, and then start a new one.
Thinking this, Yan Zhenxia's gaze fell on her two daughters again, and she casually asked, "Hasn't Xiao Shu come back yet?"
"My older sister is tutoring her boyfriend at home and they eat at his house, Mom, have you forgotten?" Xia Kening reminded her.
"Well, I was just asking," Yan Zhenxia said. "You're all busy during summer vacation, but you also need to balance work and rest. I was thinking, let's take some time, and Mom will take you out for a stroll."
"No need." Xia Kening had absolutely no desire to go out and play, as it would affect her time playing at Song Yunshen's house. "Mom, didn't you just find a new job? Let's settle into a stable job first."
"Yes, that's right." Xia Yunuo nodded in agreement. "Mom, you don't need to worry about us. Things are fine as they are now."
5"
Although she teaches Yingying every day, those few hours of teaching are actually the happiest time of her day.
She would have been even happier if she hadn't discovered the secret that her little sister and Song Yunshen had swapped souls.
but----
Reminded by Yan Zhenxia, Xia Yunuo and Xia Kening immediately realized what was going on.
Neither of them knew who Xia Jinshu's tutor was before, so they didn't think much of it.
But now, both Xia Yunuo and Xia Kening have more or less guessed who Xia Jinshu's tutor is.
This inevitably raises a suspicion.
Song Yunshen lives alone now, where would he get food for the two of them?
Could it be that Song Yunshen Shen takes Xia Jinshu out to restaurants every day?
That's impossible.
Even if Song Yunshen were willing, given how well they knew their older sister, they would never agree to Song Yunshen spending money to treat her to meals every day.
This is a bit puzzling.
It's impossible that Xia Jinshu cooked the meal herself, right?
Xia Kening and Xia Yunuo both frowned, their mood souring as they thought about the matter.
Seeing that both her daughters said so, Yan Zhenxia didn't insist any further. She felt that since her daughters were so well-behaved, she should work even harder to earn money.
There are only a few years left.
Once they all go to university, in another four or five years, Xia Jinshu will be able to enter society and earn money to support herself.
Even the youngest, Xia Kening, is about to enter her final year of junior high school. In eight years, Xia Kening will be able to graduate from university smoothly.
When that time comes, she will be able to relax a lot.
Eight years.
It's not short, but it's not very long either.
I just don't know if my three daughters will be able to find good husbands after they graduate from university.
Hopefully, they won't repeat their mistakes and will find men who truly love them.
Thinking of this, Yan Zhenxia's eyes darkened, she shook her head, and stopped thinking about it.
After dinner, Xia Jinshu returned as well.
She waved her hands, telling her sisters to go do their own things, and then took the initiative to clear the dishes.
Yan Zhenxia came to help, but she was also persuaded to leave.
"Mom, aren't you busy tonight? I don't have anything to do, I'll take care of the washing." Xia Jinshu said.
Yan Zhenxia nodded with satisfaction and let her go.
Lying on the bed, Xia Kening saw Xia Jinshu starting to clear the dishes. Remembering her earlier guess, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister!"
"What's wrong?" Xia Jinshu turned her head.
"You said you were tutoring your boyfriend and you ate at his house," Xia Kening asked, rolling her eyes. "Then who cooks at their house?"
Xia Jinshu was taken aback upon hearing this, not expecting her younger sister to suddenly ask this.
Xia Yunuo, who was about to walk into the bedroom, also stopped and curiously pricked up her ears.
Xia Jinshu felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't want to admit that she was actually the one who cooked, so she just casually said, "His mother made it."
o
That's a lie.
Xia Yunuo and Xia Kening thought to themselves at the same time.
The two exchanged a glance, each concealing their expressions, neither wanting the other to know that Xia Jinshu's tutor was Song Yunshen.
With ulterior motives in mind, Xia Yunuo went back to the bedroom, while Xia Kening turned over in bed, took out her phone and sent a message to Song Yunshen.
[ Xia Kening ]: I'm so bored.
[ Song Yunshen ]: If you're bored, go do your homework. Have you finished your summer homework yet?
[ Xia Kening ]: How could I possibly finish writing it? Have you actually finished it?
[ Song Yunshen ]: I'm not in a hurry, I'll just wait to copy others.
[ Xia Kening ]: Ha, how dare you say that? Who did you copy?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Xia Yunuo, she has already finished writing the English and given it to me.
Upon seeing this, Xia Kening immediately pouted, thinking to herself that her second sister was truly hopeless.
[ Xia Kening ]: I'll be there promptly at seven o'clock.
[ Song Yunshen ]: I know, thanks to you, I failed the English vocabulary test today.
[ Xia Kening ]: Hahahaha! Serves you right!
[ Song Yunshen ]: Isn't it all your fault?
[ Xia Kening ]: What does this have to do with me? Who told you to force me to memorize vocabulary so early in the morning? Now you're getting your comeuppance.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Hehe.
[ Xia Kening ]: Did your teacher criticize you?
[ Song Yunshen ]: My teacher is so gentle, how could she possibly criticize me? She even promised me that if I don't make any mistakes for a week, she'll grant me one wish.
[ Xia Kening ]: That's so good? You can do anything?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Of course there are limitations; it can only be within the scope of one's capabilities.
[ Xia Kening ]: Oh, that's pretty good too.
After giving a perfunctory reply, Xia Kening turned back to reality, looked at Xia Jinshu who was wiping the table, and clicked her tongue.
I never expected that.
My second sister is actually quite easy to deal with, but my eldest sister is so cunning; she even gives out rewards!
If Song Yunshen said he wanted to get the older sister pregnant, would she agree?
Xia Kening was puzzled, not quite understanding what her older sister meant by this.
Is it simply to improve teaching effectiveness, or is there some ulterior motive?
The eldest sister should know Song Yunshen, right?
The two of them had teased the second sister together before.
Knowing that her second sister might have feelings for Song Yunshen, why did her eldest sister keep her tutoring Song Yunshen a secret?
Afraid my second sister will be jealous?
Hehe~
Things are getting more and more interesting.
If she tells her second sister about this, she wonders how her second sister will react.
Xia Kening rolled her eyes, deciding to keep it a secret for now. If her second sister argued with her again later, she would drag her eldest sister into the mess.
Look, look.
It's not like I'm the only one who's close to Song Yunshen; my older sister is the same.
Hehe~
Xia Kening found it increasingly interesting and continued chatting with Song Yunshen.
It wasn't until nearly 7 p. m. that she finally got out of bed, went to the door to change her shoes, and hummed a little tune as she pushed the door open and went out.
Yan Zhenxia was used to her going out for a night run every day, so she didn't ask any questions.
A few minutes later.
Xia Kening then easily slipped into Song Yunshen's house and entered her personal password.
Upon hearing the door open in the study, Song Yunshen stood up and came out, smiling as he looked at the petite Xia Kening and clenched his fist.
"You actually dared to come? I haven't settled the score with you from this morning yet."
What are you going to do?!
What do you think?
"No! Let go!"
