Chapter 31 Little Sister Zhou Xixi
Chapter 31 Little Sister Zhou Xixi
They took Su Ying'er to the hotel she had booked.
Mo Keyun got out of the car without saying a word. Su Ying'er was too lazy to say anything to her anymore and sighed helplessly.
But then she thought, she'd just consider it a third wheel leaving, which would give her and Zhou Lang some alone time.
"Brother, I'm sending you a red envelope."
"The fare is on the house; consider it a celebration that you've finished your college entrance exams," Zhou Lang said.
"That won't do! Well... bro, I'll treat you to dinner!"
Zhou Lang hummed in agreement and exchanged WeChat contacts with her.
If you want to deepen your relationship with someone you've only known for a short time, try to avoid giving one-time gifts like red envelopes, as they can easily become the end of the relationship.
However, if you break it down into two steps, and make an appointment with the other person for the next time, you will have more opportunities and chances to meet and get to know each other.
Su Ying'er crossed her legs slightly: "Also, brother, are you still taking pictures? Let me make this clear first, taking pictures is fine, but touching is not."
Zhou Lang shook his head and chuckled, looking up at the top of Su Ying'er's head.
The Money Power Prism expands the interface.
[Status: Inactive, 20% chance of becoming your girlfriend]
The probability has increased significantly.
It seems like I had a good first impression of them.
"You must be exhausted today. You had to accompany your friend on a bike ride and push the bike, and also take care of your friend's feelings, doing all sorts of persuasion and coaxing."
Su Ying'er pouted: "Brother, you know me. It's so hard to find a reliable travel buddy when you go out... Anyway, this is the last time I'll go out with her."
"Since we're in Xiashan County, I'll consider myself a host. We'll eat at home tonight. Ying'er, we'll see if you have time tomorrow or the day after. Let's have a nice meal to soothe your wounded heart."
"Okay, okay, you go ahead and do your thing, bro! If you need me, I'm always free."
……
It's almost 5 o'clock.
Zhou Lang drove to the county's No. 1 Middle School, where his younger sister was taking her exam.
I sent Zhou Xixi a message: "Turn left after you leave the exam hall, it's in front of the sausage shop."
After the last geography exam was over, the exam room soon erupted in a commotion and cheers.
The campus was teeming with people, a dense, overwhelming crowd of students rushing out of the school gates with the immense joy of being freed from their prison.
Zhou Lang leaned against the car, holding a bouquet of flowers, waiting for his sister to appear.
With his black Audi station wagon and champagne rose bouquet, he was a truly eye-catching presence among the group of parents.
Several high school boys, yelling and shouting that they were going home to play Delta Force, charged toward their No. 9 electric scooter parked by the roadside.
Then, as it passed Zhou Lang, it came to an abrupt stop.
"Holy crap? An Audi RS6?"
"Is it a real car or a modified one?"
"Seriously, look at the headlights, and the widebody kit at the rear!"
"That car is so cool! The stance is so aggressive!"
"If I could drive this car, get into Tsinghua or Peking University, and live in a big villa, I would be willing to do it."
The male high school students all took out their phones to take pictures.
Some of them were quite outgoing and came over to Zhou Lang, asking, "Brother, can I take a picture with your car? I don't touch the car, I just want to stand in front of it and take a picture."
Zhou Lang gave an OK sign.
He also saw two tall, burly men who didn't have cell phones; they actually took the photos with their wristwatches.
"Are the watches from Little Genius watches this fancy now?" Zhou Lang thought to himself, amused. "Back in our day, we didn't have your kind of advantages."
After a while, Zhou Lang spotted his sister in the distance.
She is 1.6 meters tall, with a well-proportioned figure, a slightly chubby face, and naturally curly, fluffy medium-length hair with a slightly yellowish color.
Zhou Lang was still thinking to himself that, although Su Ying'er, whom he had just met, had a youthful face, she already had the budding charm of a young girl, much like the college students dancing on Douyin.
My younger sister, on the other hand, still acts like a middle school student who hasn't grown up...
However, Zhou Xixi also noticed him. The little girl was cunning and mischievous. She slipped to the side, attempting to sneak up behind Zhou Lang and launch a surprise attack.
Zhou Lang pretended not to know and played along with her act.
When his younger sister crept up behind him, Zhou Lang suddenly turned around and yelled, "Roar—!" which startled her.
"Ah!" Zhou Xixi exclaimed in surprise, almost throwing her schoolbag at her brother's face.
Zhou Lang handed the flowers he was holding to his younger sister, saying, "Congratulations on the successful completion of your college entrance exams! Xixi, have a happy summer vacation!"
"elder brother?"
Zhou Xixi took the bouquet suspiciously and asked tentatively, "Did you blow up the house? Are you going to make me take the blame?"
Zhou Lang tapped her forehead in annoyance. This was how he interacted with his younger sister; if he was even slightly nice to her, she would become suspicious, wondering if her older brother had ulterior motives...
"Fine, don't take it. I happen to know a pure and innocent high school girl; I'll just give it to her."
"Yes! I didn't say no!"
Zhou Xixi smiled broadly and grabbed Zhou Lang's arm, saying, "Brother, you've grown up and become sensible. I'm so proud of you."
"...I've changed my mind. Give me the flowers, I've turned back on my word."
"Hey, cheating is for little dogs, no backing out!"
Zhou Xixi lowered her head to smell the bouquet, her smile sweet and gentle: "This is the first bouquet of flowers I've ever received! I'll reimburse you later~ Let's find a classmate to take a picture of us together."
After taking a quick photo, Zhou Lang opened the car door: "Get in, let's go home."
Zhou Xixi's suspicion, which she had just suppressed, resurfaced: "Huh? Bro, did you win the lottery? You actually rented a car to pick up your sister!"
"I'm even happier than winning the lottery. I'll tell you all about it when I get home."
During the siblings' online argument, Zhou Xixi perked up her ears and overheard classmates whispering among themselves.
"Is that Zhou Xixi from our school?"
"Yes, from Class Two."
"Wow, her family is so rich!"
"Is that her brother next to her? That's great, having a brother to drive her around."
"Notice, he's driving a V8 wagon! So tasteful! I immediately recognized him as my brother!"
"You want to acknowledge him as your brother-in-law, right?"
As the conversation gradually veered towards "Brother-in-law, do you need a brother-in-law?", Zhou Xixi quickly jumped into the passenger seat.
On her way home, Zhou Xixi gently fiddled with the flowers in her arms, her smile sweet and innocent.
"Deng! Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?"
Zhou Xixi glared at Zhou Lang: "If I had known you were coming back a few days earlier, I would have been so happy for days!"
Zhou Lang felt a warm current in his heart. Although he and his sister often exchanged sharp words, he felt quite smug after hearing what the little girl said.
"You still have the college entrance exam to take, and I'm worried that you'll get too excited and it will affect your performance."
"I won't get excited at all," Zhou Xixi snorted, unwilling to admit that she also missed her own brother. She stubbornly said, "At most, I'll be touched, and if I'm writing a narrative essay for the college entrance exam, I'll just mention you a couple of times."
The brother and sister's home was in a small town below, in a shop. The first floor sold steamed buns and fried cakes, the second floor was for living, and there was a small courtyard in the back.
After parking the car in front of the store, Zhou Lang didn't rush into the house.
"Sis, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
"Bad news, huh?" Zhou Xixi glanced at Zhou Lang warily, her disappointment visibly creeping over her. "Are you going back to the company tomorrow...?"
"The bad news is that I quit my job, and I'm probably going to get a lecture from my mom."
Zhou Xixi's face immediately brightened: "This is good news, brother!"
She excitedly punched Zhou Lang twice, then immediately realized that her brother was really going to get a scolding from their mother...
"Then I'll go inside first," Zhou Xixi suggested. "My mom's been really doting on me lately, so I'll sound her out first and make sure she's in a good mood before you come in?"
"You've already finished your college entrance exams, and your status at home is about to plummet."
Zhou Lang chuckled and said, "Still thinking you're some kind of treasure? Listen to my good news instead."
"The good news is that your brother now has his own business, and he doesn't earn much, maybe a hundred thousand a year."
