Chapter 236: Chapter 194: Sister and Sworn Sister (Goal of 8000 Words Reached!)_2

Beichuan Si walked over and sat down on another sofa without speaking, his gaze calmly observing Beichuan Huili’s slovenly demeanor.

When Beichuan Huili inadvertently noticed Beichuan Si approaching, she was startled and hastily took off her phone’s earphones, sitting up straight with a stammer, "You’re back? Brother Temple?"

"Yep," Beichuan Si replied, not blaming Beichuan Huili. He asked, "So, how do you find Kyubei High School?"

Beichuan Huili hesitated for a moment before honestly answering, "It’s okay... it’s just not quite what I had expected of high school life."

Oh?

Did his Salty Egg Sister have other ideas? This was a surprise to Beichuan Si. Curious, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "How is it different?"

"Isn’t it said that high school is full of guys as handsome as Yamashita Tomohisa? But I’ve been around with Miori and others, and we haven’t come across any. I even think that Brother Temple, you’re the handsomest one in Kyubei."

"..."

That was too Salty Egg.

Even Beichuan Si’s perennially icy face twitched with irritation.

At first, he had expected Beichuan Huili to come up with some profound insights, only to find out she was troubled over such trivial matters.

However, he could begrudgingly understand. For a girl to want a rosy high school experience was quite normal. Plus, since Beichuan Huili had gotten into Kyubei High School on her own merit, Beichuan Si decided to turn a blind eye to her fantastical notions for the time being.

But if Beichuan Huili’s grades started to slip...

Beichuan Si would give her a taste of what a gray high school life really was.

Beichuan Si continued to inquire, "Did you just stroll around Kyubei the whole day today?"

"No, because Brother Temple, you had already shown me around before, and Miori and the others aren’t interested in that stuff. After we looked at the class assignment board, we left. Hehe... Ai, Saki, and I are in the same class."

"Is that so?" Beichuan Si replied nonchalantly.

"And guess what? After we left Kyubei, we even went to a music store to buy Nakajima Michika’s CD. I’ve listened to it already! Shihua’s voice is really something! Want to give it a listen, Brother Temple?"

As Beichuan Huili spoke, she started to rummage through her backpack, but her actions were halted by Beichuan Si.

"I’d rather not, you’d better get ready for tomorrow’s start of classes," Beichuan Si waved his hand dismissively.

"Huh—? But Shihua is a very famous national-level singer," Beichuan Huili expressed her disappointment.

The singer she was talking about wasn’t just an ’idol’ or a ’voice actor idol’ of mediocre fame but a true singer who touched hearts with her voice.

"I’m not interested in that stuff," Beichuan Si waved his hand again.

"That’s a pity." Beichuan Huili didn’t force Beichuan Si to listen and turned away to stuff the CD back into her backpack. She then turned back and asked, "By the way, Brother Temple, is the stuffed animal on the coffee table yours?"

The stuffed animal on the coffee table?

Beichuan Si looked towards the coffee table where Nishijou Kelian was laying.

Taking advantage of Beichuan Huili’s turned back, Nishijou Kelian was tiptoeing towards him with her round, chubby legs.

"Yup."

Beichuan Huili turned her head, just in time to see the little stuffed animal lying on the other side of the coffee table.

Huh?

Wasn’t this stuffed animal in the middle of the coffee table just now? How did it move a little to the right?

Beichuan Huili reached out and put Nishijou Kelian back in place.

In Beichuan Si’s view, Nishijou Kelian’s eyes looked somewhat lost and helpless.

But Beichuan Huili didn’t pay attention to that; after putting Kelian back in place, she continued, "When I got home, I saw the TV on with an aerobics program playing, and this stuffed animal was lying in the middle of the coffee table. I thought Brother Temple had come back and forgotten to turn off the TV."

"Is that so?" Beichuan Si looked meaningfully at Nishijou Kelian.

Nishijou Kelian lay quietly, not moving an inch.

"Hmm." Beichuan Huili sat down again, somewhat puzzled, "Speaking of which, this stuffed animal isn’t even cute, and it’s all tattered with patches. It looks kind of creepy. Brother Temple, do you have a hobby of collecting these kinds of dolls?"

As she spoke these words, Beichuan Si could clearly feel Nishijou Kelian move slightly.

"It’s not collecting, this is..."

"Eh? Isn’t this Brother Temple’s? If it gets lost, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?" Beichuan Huili said as she reached out to grab the little stuffed doll.

Just as her hand was about to touch Nishijou Kelian, Beichuan Si spoke up:

"She’s your god-sister."

"Ah?" Beichuan Huili was taken aback and was about to say something when she saw the little stuffed doll flying towards her head.

"Ugh! What is this!? What’s going on?"

Nishijou Kelian ’plopped’ onto Beichuan Huili’s face, causing Huili to scream.

She couldn’t see anything:

"What happened? What’s going on? What is this?"

Beichuan Huili tried hard to pull Nishijou Kelian off her face.

For a moment, Kelian’s stuffed face was stretched out wide and long.

But she refused to let go, determined to teach the Salty Egg Sister a lesson she would never forget.

"..." Beichuan Si watched the two of them causing chaos and couldn’t be bothered to speak.

"Brother Temple! Brother Temple! Help me! What is this?"

As for her cries for help, Beichuan Si didn’t care, and he went over to the stove to make himself a pot of tea, pouring himself a full cup, and by the time he sat back down, Beichuan Huili’s face was still stuck to Nishijou Kelian.

Fortunately, Nishijou Kelian had only grabbed the upper half of Beichuan Huili’s face, leaving her lower half to breathe through her mouth and nose; otherwise, Huili might have been in trouble by now.

It wasn’t until Brother Temple finished his tea that he finally said, "That’s enough, Kelian."

At these words, Beichuan Huili felt her face loosen, and she could see again.

The instigator stood with her hands on her hips, looking up at Beichuan Huili with a ’fierce’ little face.

"What... what on earth is this?" Beichuan Huili’s face bore four red circles, left there by Nishijou Kelian.

Beichuan Si poured himself another cup of tea and started to explain, "I told you, she’s your sister. From now on, she’s also a member of the Beichuan Family."

"Sister...?" Beichuan Huili stared at the little doll, feeling an increasingly familiar sense about it.

She suddenly exclaimed, "Last time during the game of hide-and-seek, did you follow Miori and the others in?"

Beichuan Huili remembered the dark shadow that flashed by during the game Sakura Miori and the others were playing.

Under her gaze, Nishijou Kelian, cradling her round hands, looked somewhat smugly and nodded a little.

"It was really you? Thank you so much; I heard from Miori that if it weren’t for you, she might have..." Beichuan Huili’s face brightened with joy, and then she remembered the disrespectful things she had just said, her expression pained as she turned to Beichuan Si: "Brother Temple..."

She meant for Brother Temple to help smooth things over.

But Beichuan Si didn’t even glance her way, "Sort out your own mess."

After all, Nishijou Kelian was a good child; a sincere apology would solve the problem.

Mmm—

Beichuan Huili touched her little head and sincerely said, "I’m sorry... Sister Kelian, I was wrong to say those things earlier. I apologize and hope you don’t mind."

Being inherently naive and simple, her voice was thin and soft, and upon hearing it, Nishijou Kelian finally turned around, jumped onto Beichuan Huili’s little head, and even patted her head with those round hands.

"Brother Temple?" Beichuan Huili didn’t quite understand the gesture and looked back at Beichuan Si.

"She means she forgives you," Beichuan Si couldn’t help but shake his head.

He felt like a failure.

His own sister had become more and more like a Salty Egg, and the formerly well-behaved god-sister was also being raised askew.

This made Beichuan Si wonder if he was unsuitable for raising children.

Why was it that nurturing two children resulted in two problems?

But none of that was too important anymore.

Beichuan Huili didn’t show obvious resistance to Nishijou Kelian, which meant she’d accepted her.

Actually, that was a good thing.
