Chapter 126: First Encounter

Su Yan leaned against one side of the two-seater sofa, while Qi Shaoyou took the opportunity to sit on the other side.

Qi Shaoyou thought she should proceed slowly. But as soon as she sat down, she smelled a faint scent of roses.

"Sister..." Qi Shaoyou called out affectionately, and was about to stick to Su Yan the next second.

Su Yan had long anticipated that Qi Shaoyou wouldn't behave, so she pulled a short, straight whip directly from the gap in the sofa.

Qi Shaoyou was pushed to the other side of the sofa by the whip, and she was truly helpless.

Su Yan was angry; the fact was all too obvious. She and Qi Shaoyou knew each other's bodies well, and as long as she let him come over...

Whatever the anger was, it has to be let go.

"Sister, you can't punish me like this!" Qi Shaoyou was mercilessly stabbed in place by the whip, her heart pounding with anxiety. The faint scent of roses made her heart race even faster!

Screen gone! Why don't you just change the time to another day?

Qi Shaoyou felt like the most pitiful person in the world, unable to even touch such a beautiful view.

She knew perfectly well why Su Yan was so angry; Su Yan had only picked up her paintbrush again half a month ago and officially started preparing for her art exhibition.

Today was her first day going out on her own, and she ended up smelling of omega-3...

From any perspective, it's perfectly normal for Su Yan to be angry.

However, Qi Shaoyou's actions today were indeed for a reason.

"I mainly went to help Chenping today. I survived because of her sacrifices."

"Sister, I can give you evidence."

"You know 0527 isn't human. Don't be angry, okay?"

Qi Shaoyou carefully recounted what had happened that day, afraid of upsetting Su Yan. She told her everything that had happened to her that day, and even included the store's surveillance footage.

Fortunately, she added the store on WeChat before leaving and then paid to buy the video.

"Otherwise, sister, why don't you hit me to vent your anger?" Qi Shaoyou tried to pull Su Yan's hand and press it against his face.

"I didn't say anything, why are you in such a hurry?"

After listening to all the explanations, Su Yan admitted that what Qi Shaoyou said was probably true.

But she was still unhappy and displeased, so Su Yan dropped the whip. The leather whip made a crisp sound as it landed on the glass coffee table. Seeing that there was no obstruction, Qi Shaoyou naturally wanted to sit next to Su Yan.

Unfortunately, Su Yan stood up the moment she sidled up to her.

"Let's eat."

Qi Shaoyou, who hadn't even been able to touch his older sister's hand...

This seems to be a very serious matter; it looks like she's completely finished today.

This is bad, very bad. Qi Shaoyou felt that his current mood could only be described by the image of a cat being choked by someone in a WeChat emoji.

Her feelings were exactly the same as the cat's.

"Not hungry? Or don't want to eat?" Su Yan sat down at the dining table, her voice naturally distant, contrasting with her slightly alluring makeup today.

"Eat! I'm so hungry!"

Qi Shaoyou hadn't eaten much while he was in the shop, and his stomach was already rumbling.

She thought she could use the mealtime to appease Su Yan. Qi Shaoyou quickened his pace, rushing over to take a look...

The long dining table had her food placed at the farthest end from Su Yan.

Screen gone! Couldn't you have chosen another day?

Qi Shaoyou immediately picked up his bowl and chopsticks and sat down next to Su Yan.

“I don’t remember being told you could sit here.” Su Yan raised an eyebrow, her refusal quite clear.

"No, I don't have any appetite if I don't eat with my sister!"

At this point, Qi Shaoyou didn't care about anything else; he would say anything to appease his wife.

Su Yan glanced at her, said nothing more, and simply told Qi Shaoyou to start eating.

During the meal, just as Qi Shaoyou was about to explain, Su Yan's warning gaze drifted over.

That look conveys one message: one should not speak while eating.

Qi Shaoyou felt like she was being tortured to death; she would rather be slapped by her sister.

Anyway, she can eat better after the punishment.

Doing nothing, simply creating distance between them—this kind of punishment was what Qi Shaoyou couldn't stand…

Su Yan, of course, didn't care whether Qi Shaoyou could handle it or not; she just ate her meal normally without even glancing at Qi Shaoyou.

She knew, of course, that what Qi Shaoyou did today wasn't actually a problem.

If it weren't for Chen Ping, they wouldn't even have had the chance to sit down and have a normal dinner together.

But people's hearts cannot be swayed by reason. Even though she knew in her heart that Qi Shaoyou was carrying omega hormones, Su Yan still couldn't suppress her anger; she was truly so angry that she was almost out of control.

This is only the first day we've been out.

For a moment, she really wanted to lock her younger sister in the house so that no one could see her.

She didn't want to care about those things that should be followed.

But she knew perfectly well who would suffer the most and be the most heartbroken if she did that...

The possessiveness that arises from love is also suppressed because of love.

The calmer Su Yan's expression, the more uneasy Qi Shaoyou felt.

It wasn't until the meal was finally finished that Qi Shaoyou had a chance to properly explain things to his sister.

After quickly throwing their dishes into the dishwasher, Qi Shaoyou immediately grabbed Su Yan's hand. The warmth calmed him down considerably. She began to beg for forgiveness.

"Sister, take your anger out on me."

Qi Shaoyou spoke with a look of confusion and helplessness in his eyes.

Su Yan looked at her and shook her head. She said, "What you did was not wrong."

"The one who needs to adjust is me, not you."

Reason brought her clarity, but it also caused her pain.

“I was wrong. If I hadn’t been wrong, or if I had done enough, you wouldn’t be in so much pain now, sister.”

Qi Shaoyou pulled the person into his arms, feeling the sadness conveyed by the roses.

Yes, it wasn't anger or resentment; her sister was genuinely grieving, heartbroken, and saddened...

It's all because of myself...

When this kind of emotion appeared in his pheromones, Qi Shaoyou felt that he had gone too far and hadn't considered things enough.

"It was my oversight. If I had been more thorough, I should have told you directly at that time."

"But I was thinking that my sister was working at that time..."

"This art exhibition is very important to you, and I don't want to bother you or distract you."

"So, for this reason, could you please forgive me, sister?"

"I will never do it again."

Qi Shaoyou lowered her tone, and the pheromones in the air that smelled of her strong liquor turned bitter.

Su Yan understood that Qi Shaoyou was sad because of her sadness. Hearing her mention the art exhibition, Su Yan hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Come in with me."

Su Yan took Qi Shaoyou's hand, and the two walked into the study.

The study was pitch black, and Qi Shaoyou's first instinct was to find the light switch.

"Don't turn on the lights."

Su Yan stopped her, and the two stood together at the door.

Following his sister's directions, Qi Shaoyou looked into the study.

In the darkness, a painting emitted a blue light, depicting a little girl in a princess dress.

The moment Qi Shaoyou saw her, he knew that this was the first time he had seen his older sister in another world.

Her excited voice was filled with joy and her whole body was trembling; her hand holding Su Yan's was also shaking.

"Sister, is this for me?"

Seeing that she was already happy by this point, Su Yan's mood also improved a lot.

Yes, it's for you.

Qi Shaoyou groped his way forward in the darkness, like a painting.

Standing before the screen, Qi Shaoyou felt as if he were seeing the scene of their first encounter all over again.

From that day on, she truly had a family. That day was her own salvation.

Seeing Qi Shaoyou stand in front of the screen, Su Yan turned on the light switch.

The next second, the study lights came on.

The white light made everything clear and bright, and at the same time, it made the painting in Qi Shaoyou's eyes look completely different.

The painting no longer depicted the little girl in the princess dress, but rather a child begging on the roadside.

Yes, it was Qi Shaoyou. This was how Su Yan first saw Qi Shaoyou; she was captivated by his dark blue eyes and could never look away from him again.

"This is the gift I'm giving you; it's called 'First Encounter'."

"Thank you for choosing to be my sister and my lover."

Su Yan walked to Qi Shaoyou's side and took her hand.

"Shaoyou, I'm not a good lover, nor a good sister. Sometimes I'm even a madman..."

Qi Shaoyou shook his head frantically, but Su Yan covered his mouth with her hand before he could say anything.

"Let me finish speaking first."

"Shaoyou, my possessiveness is far greater than you imagine."

"The fact that we can maintain this situation is because my love for you has made up for it. But I can't guarantee that I can keep them in balance forever."

"I need your help, my dear sister."

Every word Su Yan spoke sounded like a warning, yet at the same time, it also sounded like a vow to her lover.

Qi Shaoyou couldn't take it anymore and hugged her tightly.

It took her many days to persuade Su Yan to continue painting.

For a long time, the older sister's obsession terrified ordinary people.

Only Qi Shaoyou didn't see it that way; she felt no fear. She continued to encourage her sister to paint, wanting Su Yan to make the most of her talent. She didn't want Su Yan's life to be filled only with love…

If possible, Qi Shaoyou hopes that her sister will have everything that everyone else in the world has.

Lovers, family, friends—there are so many kinds of love in the world, and Su Yan deserves it. In terms of career and life, her sister deserves the best.

"Today is the anniversary of the first day we met. Qi Shaoyou, swear to me."

"I swear with all our hearts, you will never betray me, you will always love me, you will never leave me..."

"Only in this way can I give you back your freedom, and only then can I truly trust you."

Su Yan's words left Qi Shaoyou somewhat stunned, and she looked at Su Yan with trembling lips.

"I know, Shaoyou, there are also many things you want to do."

I hope you are happy.

Qi Shaoyou couldn't help but shed tears.

She said, "I swear on everything I have, I will love you forever, I will never betray you, and I will never leave you."

Hearing these vows, Su Yan couldn't help but shed tears. The two embraced quietly for a while before composing themselves.

Just before bedtime, Qi Shaoyou was kicked out of his bedroom by his sister.

"elder sister!"

"Let me in!"

"Didn't you say you weren't angry anymore?"

Qi Shaoyou was stunned; she hadn't even touched the leg ring yet! Su Yan's dress today was absolutely breathtaking!

"I admit you did the right thing. But I'm still angry," Su Yan's cold voice came from the bedroom.

"So you sleep in the study."

Qi Shaoyou: ?

No! The pheromones from the rose scent she smelled clearly didn't say that!

The pheromones indicate that the owner is in a very pleasant mood!

She'd rather be beaten than sleep in the study!

"No..." Qi Shaoyou lingered at the door, unwilling to leave.
