Chapter 29 Not the Brother
Chapter 29 Not the Brother
That's a little strange.
Even Xu Qingyuan, who was engrossed in the novel, chuckled inexplicably. No one knew what she was laughing at; perhaps the novel was just too captivating.
Lin Jing didn't care and continued to look at Chu Shan with wide, incredulous eyes.
...Was it his imagination?
Chu Shan actually detected a hint of vying for favor in her words.
Is this normal? Or is this common in families with twins?
So Chu Shan glanced at her sideways and, thinking he was being impartial, said, "You two are both younger sisters, and I care about both of you."
"Oh." But Lin Jing didn't seem particularly happy.
Unaware of what was happening, Chu Shan closed the door the next second; he needed to use the restroom.
Lin Jing: "..."
Lin Jing was turned away.
She gritted her teeth, thinking of floating back in, when Xu Qingyuan, who seemed indifferent to everything, spoke up: "I suggest you give up on that idea; he doesn't like it."
No one likes being spied on when they're using the toilet.
"..." Lin Jing turned around and glanced at Xu Qingyuan.
puffed up with anger.
But she dismissed the idea and went to sit at the small round table over there, still feeling indignant.
Of course, judging from her expression, not many people could tell that she was actually quite indignant.
After a while, Chu Shan washed his hands and came out. He asked, "What were you talking about?"
Lin Jing remained silent.
Xu Qingyuan said, "What could I possibly talk about with this kid?"
He ignored her and continued reading her novel.
Lin Jing looked up and stared at him with his dark eyes, but didn't seem to want to argue.
Chu Shan felt a little awkward being caught between the two women, as they seemed to be speaking with a bit of sarcasm in their words.
Oh, Lin Jing didn't say anything.
But it still has a bit of a barbarian tone.
Also normal.
The female Taoist priest and the female ghost are irreconcilable enemies, aren't they?
Breakfast was a very normal human breakfast; there was a bowl of tofu pudding, two meat buns, and two fried dough sticks left on the table.
He turned to Xu Qingyuan and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Qingyuan nodded and said, "I've already eaten, the rest is all yours."
"Oh." So Chu Shan gave Lin Jing a meat bun and then asked her, "Do you want some tofu pudding?"
Xiao Jingzi shook her head. But she still took the bun Chu Shan handed her, subconsciously sniffed it, then divided it in half and hid it, before tentatively taking a bite of the other half.
Chu Shan took a bite of tofu pudding.
He glanced at it and saw the bite marks on the bun.
...and they can actually eat it.
He muttered to himself.
Chu Shan said, "If you want to save some for your sister, you can take the other bun too, it's fine."
There's no need to divide a single bun around like that.
"Hmm~" Lin Jing shook his head and refused again.
She felt very happy with just half a steamed bun.
Chu Shan jokingly teased her, "I thought you didn't like eating human food."
For example, Feng Wan doesn't like to eat; she has no interest in gourmet food.
"Huh?" Lin Jing was taken aback. She raised her head somewhat blankly, not knowing what to do.
"Keep eating," Chu Shan said.
"oh."
But Xu Qingyuan couldn't stand this harmonious scene of a loving family.
She hummed, but no one knew what she was humming about, and then the young Taoist nun moved to another spot—for example, the swing chair. She settled down there to read a novel.
No one else, no other ghost, should bother her.
A warm, illusory sunlight streamed in.
Chu Shan: "..."
In the quiet princess room.
Chu Shan was eating tofu pudding, and Lin Jing was munching on steamed buns.
Everyone was doing their own thing.
After a while, when they had almost finished eating, Chu Shan said as he tidied up, "I still want to see your sister. I have something I want to tell you."
Although he found Lin Tang terrifying.
It wasn't the kind of horror Feng Wan described, but rather that Chu Shan found her touching him in a somewhat frightening way.
Even if it's her younger sister, she looks to be over ten years old, which would be equivalent to a middle school student in the human world. We still need to be a little careful about the relationship between the two of them.
Perhaps it's because she wasn't taught anything as a child...
If she tries to lay a hand on him again, he will criticize her sternly and righteously!
Yes, Chu Shan has made up his mind.
Lin Jing: "…………"
The two sisters have a very good relationship.
Lin Jing felt a vague, indescribable unease in her heart—she could listen to anyone mention her sister, but not him.
My little sister is already very lovable!
Lin Jing was slightly annoyed.
She said earnestly, "Can't you just tell me? What my sister can do, I can do too."
Uh……
Chu Shan's mind raced for a moment.
How strange, how strange.
Where does this strange possessiveness come from?
Was he overthinking it? Or is this the typical way female ghosts talk?
Chu Shan subconsciously sought help from an expert, but after realizing that the expert was too busy to pay attention to him, he slowly turned his attention to Lin Jing.
Xu Qingyuan turned a page of her novel, turned to look at him, and said abruptly, "Why are you looking at me? You should handle your own family matters."
Chu Shan: "..."
I knew I couldn't count on her.
Wasn't he trying to find this female Taoist priest to investigate the habits of female ghosts?
"Fine," Chu Shan said, pursing his lips. "Let's talk about it together. Besides, I'm the older brother, it wouldn't be right for me to come all this way and not even see him."
Unfortunately, he arrived empty-handed, which made Chu Shan feel a little embarrassed.
There's nothing we can do; it's Feng Wan's fault.
If she had told him earlier, he would have prepared gifts for his two little kids.
"You're younger than all of us," Lin Jing coldly interrupted his inner monologue.
So he's not the older brother.
Chu Shan: "..."
No… he could never admit that he was younger than those two young girls.
And look at Lin Tang's mental age, does she seem like the type to act as an older sister?
At most, he would accept the mature Feng Wan as his older sister!
Furthermore, you can't use a ghost's age to measure how long he lived as a human. That's unfair.
So Chu Shan paused for a moment and then changed the subject.
Chu Shan asked, "Then are we family?"
Lin Jing: "..."
Chu Shan then asked, "Does the family usually meet up and get together?"
Lin Jing still turned his face away and remained silent.
Oh, it took Chu Shan quite a while to realize it.
Why are you so reluctant to let me see your sister?
He pressed further, "Are you afraid I'll do something to her?"
As he spoke, he leaned closer to observe Lin Jing's expression... Unable to bear his gaze, Lin Jing pursed his lips and turned his head away again.
But his eyes kept blinking nervously.
It seems I guessed somewhat correctly...
What a foolish sister! What could an ordinary, unarmed man do to her sister?
He's not afraid at all.
Sigh... there's nothing we can do. Twins are just that possessive of their younger sister.
Chu Shan sat up straight and said seriously, "With you here, what can I do to your sister?"
