Finding a way to maintain a proper distance between girls without hurting any of them is a tricky problem!
Bai Ye stood at the doorway, racking his brains to find a way to resolve his current predicament that would satisfy both parties.
Just as he was racking his brains, he suddenly heard Xia Qingyue's slightly languid voice coming from the room:
"What are you doing standing by the door for so long?"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Bai Ye's heart tightened, and his previously furrowed brows instantly relaxed.
He quickly and casually lowered his hands from behind his back, forcing a smile as he said:
"Hehe, I was just thinking about what kind of delicious breakfast I should make for us this morning! Sister Qingyue, what would you like to eat? Just tell me, and I promise I'll cook it for you right away!"
After saying that, Bai Ye quickly reached out and opened the door, then stood steadily at the junction of the door frame and the threshold, like a respectful servant, quietly waiting for Xia Qingyue's instructions.
At this moment, Xia Qingyue was half-lying on the soft bed, and she glanced at Bai Ye casually.
However, with just that casual glance, Bai Ye suddenly felt that all his innermost thoughts had been seen through by the other party, leaving him nowhere to hide.
He involuntarily swallowed hard, feeling an inexplicable and powerful pressure emanating from Xia Qingyue lying on the bed, which made him feel flustered and uneasy.
Xia Qingyue gently raised her right hand to support her head and sat up slightly.
However, before she could fully straighten her back, a piercing pain shot through her lower body, causing her to furrow her brows in pain.
She glared at Bai Ye fiercely, inwardly blaming him: Humph, it's all this wretched little brother's fault, he didn't know how to be gentle with a woman last night!
Due to an unintentional movement, the blanket that had been covering her tightly slipped down slightly, instantly revealing an alluring view to Bai Ye.
Bai Ye couldn't help but swallow hard, his gaze becoming somewhat unfocused as he uncontrollably recalled the scene from yesterday that had made his blood boil—the beautiful figure that had been displayed before him without reservation.
Her delicate collarbones, as if meticulously sculpted, radiated a captivating luster; her beautiful figure was curvaceous and shapely, every line seemingly a masterpiece of nature; and her long, flawless legs were as smooth and delicate as mutton-fat jade.
Such a beautiful woman was like a fairy who had descended from the heavens to the mortal world. She exuded an irresistible charm that deeply attracted Bai Ye's heart and soul.
However, Xia Qingyue remained quite calm about this slightly awkward scene.
After all, everything that happened last night had already exposed her body to her adorable yet lovable younger brother, so this little bit of exposure was nothing to her.
And so, she and Bai Ye gazed at each other silently, and time seemed to stand still for a long time.
Finally, Xia Qingyue broke the silence first, her tone calm and gentle as she spoke:
"You don't need to worry too much. What happened last night was my own problem, and you don't need to take responsibility."
But Bai Ye seemed not to hear him and subconsciously retorted:
"No, how can you blame my sister? It was clearly my own fault for not being able to control myself. It's all my fault, and I must take full responsibility for you!"
You should know that last night was not only Bai Ye's first experience in his life, but also Xia Qingyue's precious first time.
At this moment, the vivid red stain remaining on that snow-white bed sheet still flashes and lingers in Bai Ye's mind like a scene from a movie.
As the saying goes, a real man has principles; he knows what to do and what not to do. People always need to take responsibility for their past actions!
Xia Qingyue's lips curled up slightly, forming a faint smile, as beautiful and charming as a flower blooming in spring.
She parted her lips slightly and said softly:
"Hey little brother, how exactly do you plan to take responsibility for your sister?"
If you only said these words because you felt guilty about wanting to possess my body, then I absolutely will not accept them!
Let's just pretend nothing happened last night. You, of course, don't need to take responsibility for your sister. Our relationship can remain the same as before.
Bai Ye listened quietly to what Xia Qingyue had to say, his originally handsome face gradually becoming somewhat blank.
However, in that instant, his thoughts surged forth like a turbulent tide.
Looking back on every moment since he met Xia Qingyue, the two of them had spent countless days and nights together, leaving behind many beautiful memories that were both ambiguous and incredibly warm.
If Bai Ye only had ordinary friendship with Xia Qingyue, even he himself would probably find it hard to believe.
In fact, his feelings for Xia Qingyue were extremely complex and difficult to describe accurately in simple words.
Does he like Xia Qingyue? The answer is undoubtedly yes.
Whether it's Xia Qingyue's gentle, considerate, and understanding older sister image, or her occasional strong, domineering, and decisive female CEO demeanor, Bai Ye is deeply fascinated and unable to extricate himself from it.
Bai Ye took a deep breath, as if trying to inhale all the surrounding air into his lungs. He straightened his spine and looked firmly at the woman in front of him—Xia Qingyue.
He said solemnly, "Whether you believe it or not, Sister Qingyue, my desire to take responsibility for you is definitely not just because of the slight guilt I feel towards you deep in my heart."
Actually, deep down, I still harbor a special feeling for you, Sister Qingyue—that is, I like you.
However, I was too cowardly in the past, always choosing to escape and play dumb, never daring to face this feeling or look you in the eye.
But now, after what has happened, I can no longer deceive myself.
At this point, Bai Ye paused for a moment, as if to organize his thoughts or to encourage himself.
Then, he spoke again, his voice trembling slightly but full of sincerity: "I like you, Sister Qingyue."
Although I know I have neither great wealth nor outstanding looks, please believe me, from this moment on, I will strive to become the person who truly deserves you.
So... Sister Qingyue, would you please be my girlfriend? Let's walk hand in hand through every day and night of the future!
