Chapter 177 : She Was a Failed Older Sister
...
...
Sunday on a weekend should have been a relaxed and happy day, but not a single second of joy could be seen on their faces.
Qin Yao sat before the snow-white hospital bed, her heart filled with endless self-blame and sorrow.
This was the first time she had ever faced a farewell.
...
Just last night, Qin Yao had wanted to arrange the recent household affairs with the maids.
As it turned out, the moment she went downstairs, she discovered Qin Xue's bedroom door was ajar.
She kindly went to help push it closed.
The moment Qin Yao pushed the door, her expectant heart urged her to look inside.
She just wanted to catch a glimpse of Qin Xue.
However, there was no sign of her in the room.
In order to see her, Qin Yao once again stood at the door and waited.
Soon, she heard Qin Yuanyuan's heart-wrenching sobs from not far away.
She wanted to go and help her up, but she knew that Qin Xue would surely be one step ahead of her.
But, that gentle voice meant only for Qin Yuanyuan never came.
Where was Qin Xue?
Qin Yao's expression soured. Her sharp intuition led her to start making wild guesses.
She guessed that Qin Xue, in order to avoid her, hadn't truly come home for a long time. The hospital visit a few days ago was just Yuanyuan calling her back to deal with her.
This was the outcome she hoped for the least, but at that moment, she suddenly remembered something important.
If Qin Xue was here, why was that cat in her room every day?
As expected... all these people were lying to her.
In that instant, Qin Yao felt her heart burning.
...
"Is Qin Xue even here at all?" When Xia Rou returned with the cat, Qin Yao spoke in a stern tone, different from her usual self.
She didn't notice the unwell expression on Xia Rou's face.
"No, Sister Xue is..."
"Don't say another word!"
Facing the delicate girl before her, Qin Yao only grew more severe in her questioning.
"Thud."
In the end, she never expected, nor could she have guessed, that the little girl who usually played happily with Yuanyuan would suddenly collapse just like that.
Afterward, no matter how many times Qin Yao called her, there was no response.
"Splash..."
Not long after, the sound of water splashing onto the floor came from nearby.
Qin Yao was already terrified.
She looked up and was surprised to find it was Qin Yuanyuan.
However, the basin full of hot water had already spilled all over the floor, and the clean towel lay on the cold ground.
"Yuanyuan, she..."
"What did you do to her!?"
Qin Yao wanted to get an answer from Yuanyuan, but what she received was only a cold interrogation.
At a time like this, her younger sister actually thought she had harmed Xia Rou.
In that instant, she knew that she, as an older sister, had completely failed.
...
After that, Qin Yao performed some emergency measures and called for an ambulance.
She hoped for the best.
But unfortunately, after a night passed, the doctor's answer plunged her into despair.
She, too, believed for a time that she might have been the one to harm her, and her heart was filled with immense self-blame.
"I'm sorry, this is all my fault... If it weren't for me..."
Qin Yao looked at the weak girl on the bed, her words choked with sobs.
"It's okay, Sister Yao. Actually, I've been like this for a while, I just didn't tell you..."
Even though she had treated her so coldly last night, Xia Rou still spoke to her in a gentle tone.
"For a while, could it be..." Qin Xue looked at the delicate girl before her with shocked eyes.
"Um, about Sister Xue... Xiaoyun is a good girl. Can you please not stand in their way?"
"They really work hard every day."
"Xiaoyun?"
It didn't take long for Qin Yao to understand who this Xiaoyun was.
That white-haired girl.
She was still speaking up for others at a time like this?
Even so, how could she possibly let Qin Xue be with that kind of person?
Qin Xue opened her mouth, about to say something, but quickly held it back.
Was she really 'that kind of person'?...
She clearly just wanted Qin Xue to have a better life... but, had she really achieved that?
"Sister Yao, I know you actually love them very much."
"You prepare delicious food for them every time, but you're too embarrassed to give it to them, so you end up giving it to me..."
"It shouldn't be like this between sisters. You should have a good talk with Sister Xue. Maybe some things aren't what you think."
"Mm..."
Qin Yao lowered her head. The strong her couldn't help but cry like a little girl at this moment.
She had worked hard for over twenty years, only to become the 'that kind of person' she herself spoke of.
Yuanyuan and Qin Xue had never truly seen her as an older sister.
"I'm sorry..."
"I'm fine... Sister Yao."
"Lastly, can I ask you to tell Yuanyuan for me that 'I'm fine'?"
"..."
At the end, Xia Rou made her final request.
"Why?" Qin Yao lifted her tear-streaked face.
She couldn't understand.
...
...
Sunday morning was undoubtedly a very joyous time for a couple in the throes of new love.
At 10 AM, Su Yun slowly woke from her sleep.
"Hng..."
She groggily nuzzled the softness in front of her face.
As she nuzzled, that softness would jiggle along, perfectly enveloping her face.
So comfortable...
A blissful smile appeared on Su Yun's face the moment she woke up.
She had just had a dream that she was together with Qin Xue.
Clearly, this dream was reality.
So even after waking up, Su Yun didn't feel upset.
"Sister Xue, hehe..."
She continued to nuzzle gently. The pleasant fragrance from the older girl's body also made her heart stir.
Su Yun opened her eyes in anticipation, and the scene from her dream appeared before her.
Qin Xue was lying on her side, facing her, her beautiful and coolly elegant face holding the same gentle expression she had for her before bed.
Sister Xue... hng.
Upon seeing her, her hands holding Qin Xue's waist tightened. She didn't want to leave Qin Xue.
Unfortunately, because of the large mounds in front of her, she couldn't completely embrace Qin Xue's body.
"You piggies are just too big."
Su Yun glared at the two large, soft mounds, then made a small fist and gently punched them.
"It's all your fault, making it so I can't be close to Sister Xue."
"..."
The response her anger received was her fist sinking in slightly.
Clearly, it was completely useless.
This was what they called punching cotton.
"Mmm... Little Sister Yun?"
But soon, the owner of these cotton mounds woke up.
That cool and pleasant tone echoed in Su Yun's ear, and she instantly cowered.
Su Yun didn't dare to move anymore, obediently curling up in Qin Xue's arms like a little kitten.
"?"
Qin Xue's beautiful long eyelashes fluttered slightly.
After opening her eyes, she found no movement beside her.
As mentioned before, she was very sensitive.
Waking up most likely meant someone was touching her, and in a rather private area...
Of course, Qin Xue wasn't afraid of this, because in this room, only her Little Sister Yun could touch her.
So she looked down at the 'sleeping' little white-haired girl in her arms.
Apart from a motionless white head, there was nothing else.
From above, all she could see was the girl's head full of beautiful white hair.
Little Sister Yun's hair is so pretty.
However...
"Little Sister Yun?"
"..." Qin Xue frowned.
Just now, she had really thought the other was asleep and it was her own imagination.
But the waves of warmth coming from her chest told her that her Little Sister Yun was actually a little lecher.
She yelps when touched while awake, but dares to do anything once she's asleep?
"Little Sister Yun looks so cute when she's sleeping~"
"I can't hold it in anymore. Maybe I should just strip her naked right now."
"I'm going to do you~"
Qin Xue deliberately leaned over the white head and said.
"Hng, Sister Xue, don't..."
Sure enough, it wasn't long before the little cutie stirred.
Pushing her waist? Useless.
Qin Xue reached out and held her Little Sister Yun tightly in her embrace.
"You coward, so restless right after waking up? This calls for punishment. After all, I really hate sneaky people," she said, pretending to be angry.
This made Su Yun's body tremble.
"I'm sorry, hng, but the exam is next Friday."
"My body is rather weak, I can't handle that kind of thing yet..."
"So Sister Xue, only that one thing is really not okay..."
Su Yun's small hands trembled as she held the older sister's waist, her soft voice full of pleading.
This appearance of a submissive little wife was truly irresistible.
Su Yun probably didn't even realize she had become like this.
"..."
Don't be so tempting, Little Sister Yun.
Qin Xue felt like her nose was about to bleed.
Actually, she just wanted to tease her Little Sister Yun.
Although she really did want to do it again, or go deeper...
"Ahem..."
"Then how about you wear the white stockings for me, Little Sister Yun? If you do, I won't do it."
Qin Xue slowly released her hold on Su Yun, then gently stroked her little head.
"Okay..."
"Remember to study after I've seen them, hng."
"No problem~"
The two's new day began with an intimate interaction.
They had no time to look at their phones; their eyes were only for each other.
