And what are you so proud of?
"What's the use of beating me? If you're so capable, go compete with An Nuannuan!"
The two chuckled at each other with a sarcastic undertone.
As a strange tension with an inexplicable whiff of gunpowder hung in the air,
a cute figure came bouncing and hopping out of the room.
"Hey! Is the food not ready yet?"
An Nannan, having finished her bath, had changed into one of her sister's pajama tops, which practically looked like a dress on her.
The house's floors were carpeted, so the little girl didn't even bother with slippers and ran around barefoot with her white little feet on the carpet.
But when she saw Zhu Yulan and Yao Mingyue in the living room, the excitement and anticipation on the little girl's face paused for a moment, and she curiously eyed the two strangers.
Yao Mingyue knew that An Nuannuan had a little sister.
But this was their first meeting.
Yao Mingyue and Zhu Yulan looked at the little girl in front of them,
and their eyes immediately lit up.
As sisters, An Nannan resembled An Nuannuan quite a bit, with her big, expressive eyes brimming with spirit. After all, she was only a twelve-year-old girl with skin so tender it seemed like one could squeeze water out of it.
Most importantly, An Nannan was wearing an ill-fitting pajama top that, at the front, already hinted at some curves.
This... although girls start developing two years earlier than boys, middle school is when they begin to grow.
But she's how old now, and already this developed?
Hiss... Is this the terrifying power of family genes?
An Nannan, looking at the two unfamiliar older girls, for some reason, subconsciously covered her chest.
She just felt that there was something slightly off about these two older sisters.
But Zhu Yulan didn't know that Nuannuan had a little sister.
Looking at An Nannan, for a moment, she even wondered if this could be An Nuannuan and Xu Musen's child?
"Who are you guys, and what are you doing in my sister's house?"
An Nannan wasn't shy at all, just gazing at the two beautiful older sisters with a girl's intuitive skill—detecting rivals!
Activated it right there!
From what she'd seen in comic books, there always seemed to be some wicked female characters trying to disrupt the main couple's romance, especially ones as beautiful as these!
"You must be Nuannuan's little sister, so cute. I'm Zhu Yulan, a friend of your sister's. Just call me 'sister,'" Zhu Yulan said.
Zhu Yulan quickly caught on, realizing that if she claimed to be the sister's houseguest, she certainly must be Nuannuan's sister.
She had a favourable impression of the adorable little girl in front of her.
Just as she was about to approach, Yao Mingyue stepped in front of her, "You're Nannan, right? I'm Xu Musen's childhood friend's little sister, so I guess, in a way, your god-sister, which is even closer than those formal 'sisters.'"
Yao Mingyue's smile was warm and friendly.
Zhu Yulan, on the other hand, was grinding her teeth, thinking, you're not done yet, huh? Why are you even competing with me over winning a kid's affection!
The two exchanged a silent glance, each letting out a matching snort.
At this point, An Nannan, much like Conan with his iconic pose, touched her delicate chin thoughtfully, her big eyes shining with a "there's only one truth!" kind of light.
She examined the two older sisters before her.
One with the cunning of a childhood friend,
the other a "blonde-haired," tsundere loser in love.
Gagaga, just like the loser heroines from the comic books she read!
An Nannan suddenly had a weird idea.
If these were her sister's rivals,
then she felt she could take them on too!
