Chapter 66: Instant Explosion
The next morning.
During breakfast, Xinran was still wearing a maid outfit, and so was Keling.
I thought that after seeing that scene yesterday, Keling would at least avoid me for a few days. So when I saw her still wearing that maid outfit walk downstairs to eat breakfast this morning, I was so shocked that I dropped the water cup in my hand onto my own foot. Then Xinran happily came over to wipe my feet, massage them, and put on a bandage.
I’ve completely become numb. Before, it was just that they didn’t treat me like a brother, but now I feel like I can’t treat them as younger sisters anymore either.
Moreover, after Lianbing said that yesterday, I also feel like my way of thinking is a bit off.
I can stay rational on other issues, but when it comes to my younger sisters, my first reaction is to be negative.
I used to think this was natural. After all, they are my sisters! Right? Sisters are ‘sisters’… If they are sisters, then it’s definitely not allowed…
Now that I think about it, what kind of logic is that!
…But they are sisters…
“Master, your mouth isn’t moving.”
“…”
It’s just like this. Whenever I think about this issue, for some reason, I get stuck in a dead end, like a repeating loop of erroneous statements. My brain is full of errors.
I even suspect if I’ve been influenced by something. Has some emotion in my heart been amplified?
“Master, please don’t think about other things while eating. If you continue like this, you’ll be late.”
“Ah, sorry, I’ll eat now.”
I’ve also been spacing out more frequently. There’s been too much going on lately, and my head is about to explode.
Thinking about it this way, being an idiot is truly a blessing. No wonder the carefree zombie Li Nai is happy like fools every day. Indeed, ignorance is bliss.
In short, I should just listen to Lianbing. She’s so smart; she must have everything arranged perfectly.
After finishing breakfast, the maids tidied everything up without me doing anything.
I sat on the side drinking tea like a big boss… It feels so good… and there’s a show for me.
Look at that little idiot Keling; when she bends over to wipe the table, she forgets to cover her skirt again. Her panties are all exposed.
At this moment, a more important question suddenly came to mind. Although I felt it was unlikely to be so tactless, I still asked worriedly:
“I say, Keling, you’re not planning to wear this to school too, are you?”
“How could that be! Even a fool would know that I wouldn’t wear such a shameless outfit out!”
I can’t wear it outside, but I can wear it at home. Although I’m shy and very unwilling, I still wear it. Doesn’t that mean…
“Then that’s like wearing it specifically for me to see…”
Hearing this, Keling was so shocked that the short ponytails on both sides stood on end, and her face instantly turned red.
“D-don’t think too much! I’m not wearing it for you to see! It’s just because Sister Xinran and Sister Lianbing are also wearing maid outfits!”
[SF Light Novel]
“Oh, really.”
She’s acting tsundere. The Keling from before wouldn’t have this expression. Keling in the mirror was initially rude to me, but after I disciplined her a bit, she returned to being an obedient younger sister.
Only this Keling who dislikes me reveals such a complicated expression. Hahaha, suddenly I feel like it’s not bad to continue like this.
…It’s only for you to see…
“Eh? What?”
“Nothing!”
Ugh, it’s too perfect. Not only the “tsun,” but also the “dere” that involuntarily leaks out. My younger sister is so incredibly cute!
“Then, at school, Juncheng will be in your care, Sister Lian.”
“Heh heh, no problem, leave it to me. I will definitely keep a close eye on Master.”
Here, they were performing some kind of handover ceremony. Xinran even took off her apron and handed it to Lianbing.
Am I being treated like cargo, or like an infant…
Since Xinran and Keling still needed to change back into their school uniforms, Lianbing and I left for school first.
On the way, Lianbing suddenly asked me.
“You still remember what you need to do next, right?”
“Turn on the 7th gear. Money isn’t mentioned here. SF Light Novel.”
The next thing to do, naturally, was to pretend to be infatuated with Xu Jiaojiao. However, Lianbing added another condition yesterday: it had to be witnessed by Xinran and Keling.
The consequences of this would undoubtedly be severe. I could completely imagine how terrifying the scene would be when two barrels of dynamite exploded together. But Lianbing said, “You don’t need to worry about what happens afterward; just leave it to me,” so I decided to go along with it.
I guess Lianbing wouldn’t trick me… Uh, she probably wouldn’t…
In fact, the bad premonition is already very strong. Given my incredibly unlucky life trajectory, when I feel something is wrong, something bad will definitely happen. [Mi_]
But this time, I’ve decided to…
Leave it all to Lianbing.
To Lianbing, no matter the consequences.
She had already investigated Xu Jiaojiao’s arrival time at school. The reason Lianbing reminded me to eat quickly just now was to catch that time, not because she was afraid of being late.
According to her perfect calculation, Keling and Xinran, who were changing clothes, would be somewhere behind us. And with our current pace, we would just happen to run into Xu Jiaojiao at the school gate.
Then, the scene of me rushing towards Xu Jiaojiao would be seen by Xinran and Keling… Oh! Here it comes!
As we approached the school gate, I spotted the target.
But I didn’t actually see Xu Jiaojiao herself because she was surrounded by a large group of fangirls and fanboys. Not only male students from our school but also many from other schools, along with many suited businessmen, and even elderly grandpas out for a stroll.
“Alright, my little pigs, you can pick me up after school. Hehehehe~”
“Yes! Great Jiaojiao! Understood! Great Jiaojiao!” xM
The sound was deafening… What terrifying charisma.
Then, as Xu Jiaojiao walked through our school gate, it was as if a new realm had opened. The male students in our school were all stunned.
“Wow… I’m in love!” “Th-this feeling of my heart skipping a beat!” “Is there really such a cute girl in the world!”
Above are the thoughts of the male students from all grades.
Yes, the moment she appeared, she became a dazzling sight, captivating everyone who saw her… except me.
But I have to become one of them too. There’s nothing shameful about it, after all, I have so many ‘companions.’
However, at this moment, I was still like a soldier about to face death, nervously swallowing. After all, thinking about the consequences of doing this, I couldn’t remain calm.
I looked back at Lianbing. We made eye contact, and she smiled and nodded at me, giving me courage.
…Alright! I’ve made up my mind… Let’s do this!
“Great Jiaojiao! Your servant has come to greet you!”
This scene unfolded as expected and was witnessed by Xinran and Keling, who had rushed over in time. But not only that. Beside them were Yu Hui, who might have coincidentally run into them, Li Nai, who was on her way to work and passing by the school gate from the south, and Xuan’er and Xueqing, who had recovered and returned to school, accompanied by Lily from the north…
Everyone gathered at the same time, as if guided by fate.
Instant explosion.
