Ji Qingqian: ?
Then I heard the Calm Instrument ask softly:
"Sis, when did you start liking my brother? In college? Or in your senior year of high school? Or your junior year?"
Aside from Ah Bei, Ji Qingqian doesn't usually talk to people about her past.
But since her sister asked, she answered honestly:
"...Grade 11."
I think I started liking it in my second year of high school.
I only realized it when I was in my senior year of high school.
"...I see."
Shen Jingyi then asked, "Back then... weren't you afraid that dating would affect your grades?"
Ji Qingqian looked at the curious Shen Jingyi, then thought for a moment and put down the barbecue tongs:
"My grades will only be affected if I don't date."
Chen Jingyi could not understand Ji Qingqian's thoughts.
Because she had never been involved in Ji Qingqian's past.
But Ji Qingqian still sensed something in Shen Jingyi's words: "What's wrong?"
In fact, Ji Qingqian had a subtle feeling from the beginning. Although her younger sister was still bickering with her brother as before, she seemed to be harboring some kind of unhappiness.
Chen Jingyi hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
Ji Qingqian looked at her.
Finally, the Calm Instrument spoke:
"Sis, I think dating at this age is very immature. I've never thought about it, and I'm not prepared to date..."
"Um."
Ji Qingqian nodded quietly.
That's normal; everyone has their own ideas.
“That Han Zhe from before… oh, you didn’t see him? He’s the one who asked me to go home with him,” Shen Jingyi said.
Ji Qingqian racked her brains for a long time before finally pulling this person out of the "recycle bin".
"He is actually very popular at our school."
"oh."
"He's a very nice person, he can play guitar, and he's also very good at basketball."
In high school... or rather, during school days, a boy like this would be popular wherever he went, but Shen Jingyi said, "I'm not really interested. He's excellent, but... I just feel like he's not as good as my brother."
"…Um."
Ji Qingqian added in her mind, "No one can compare to your brother."
"But the river view is different."
Chen Jingyi said seriously, "His grades are terrible, and his attitude towards learning is a mess. Sometimes it makes people wonder how he even got into Chaogao High School. So when he started asking me to tutor him and started to improve slowly, I felt that he was pretty cool. He kept his promise and shaved his head. Although it was funny, it also showed a lot of manliness. Sister Qingqian, please don't laugh at me."
Ji Qingqian also spoke to Chen Jingyi with extreme seriousness:
"I'm not laughing."
Her younger sister was talking to her about her feelings.
A young girl's thoughts may be naive, mature, domineering, or reasonable.
No one should laugh at them.
"...So, you like him?" Ji Qingqian asked softly.
Shen Jingyi looked at Ji Qingqian and said, word by word:
"I don't want to like him."
Ji Qingqian: ...
"Although he can be kind of cool at times, he's mostly just childish..."
As Shen Jingyi spoke, she looked somewhat troubled: "...Besides, my brother once said that I am a railway track, and I should have my own path to walk. Now it's my senior year of high school, not the time to talk about these things. I shouldn't stop. I can only catch up with my brother's pace if I work hard and harder...but..."
She paused here, somewhat deflated:
"...I still want to know who the woman next to him is... Sister Qingqian, I'm so conflicted, how can I get rid of this thought?"
Ji Qingqian remained silent for a long while before speaking:
"If I want to know, I'll ask."
“But I don’t want to know… no, I should say I ‘don’t want to get caught up in this useless stuff.’”
Ji Qing thought for a moment and then said:
"...Sorry, I'm not very good at dealing with these kinds of things...I think you should ask your brother, maybe that would be better."
Chen Jingyi stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously:
"It's okay, I wasn't looking for an answer from you, I just wanted someone to complain to~ Thank you, Sister Qingqian. Also, please don't tell my brother!"
