Chapter 92: Shura Showdown Scheduled

Cutest Linlin in the World: “So mean!”

Shao Linlin sent another protesting cat sticker and a “the cat will punish you in the name of the moon” sticker.

Yet without exception, every sticker she sent was instantly copied by Lu Li with that punch-worthy panda and then hurled back at her.

Their back-and-forth gave off the vibe of grade-schoolers yelling “Kamehameha!” and “Bounce back!” at each other.

It might have been childish for real grade-schoolers, but for these two seniors it felt just right.

Shao Linlin soon realized that if she kept spamming stickers, Lu Li would keep reaping them for free.

If this went on, he would strip her dowry of stickers long before she ever married, so she halted the offensive first.

Cutest Linlin in the World: “I quit, I quit, you’re bullying me!”

Lu Li secretly sighed; his new phone still didn’t have many stickers stored, and the emptiness felt like building a lavish palace with no concubines to fill it.

He glanced at the time on his phone and blinked in surprise.

In the course of chatting with Shao Linlin, an hour and a half had slipped by without him noticing, and it was already 1:00 a.m.

He had spent far too long stealing stickers!

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: “Enough chatting, it’s late; time for bed.”

Shao Linlin froze, checked the clock, and jumped in shock.

It really was that late!

Normally she fell asleep the moment her head touched the pillow, yet now she was wide-awake, not the least bit sleepy.

She still wanted to keep talking, but she couldn’t hold up Lu Li’s rest…

Cutest Linlin in the World: “Th-then, see you tomorrow!”

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: “Okay.”

Cutest Linlin in the World: “Good night!”

Cutest Linlin in the World: [animated sticker]

It was a sticker of a kitten crawling into bed, pulling up the covers while a moon rose in the background.

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: “Good night!”

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: [punch-worthy panda + good-night kitten sticker]

Cutest Linlin in the World: “Stealing my sticker again… so hateful!!!”

This time, after she sent the text, no reply came for a long while.

Shao Linlin put down her phone, feeling an inexplicable emptiness.

Clutching her pillow between her legs, she rolled back and forth on the bed, unable to sleep.

Lu Li would bring his sister tomorrow… did that mean he wanted to introduce her to me?

Geez, who would normally introduce their little sister to someone?

That’s it, that’s it… Lu Li must like me at least a little, otherwise why would he chat for so long?

It couldn’t just be for stealing stickers, haha.

Hmm-hmm-hmm, what should I wear to meet Lu Li tomorrow?

Shao Linlin leaped off the bed, hurried to the wardrobe, and skimmed through her clothes front to back.

Mmm, this light-green dress Mom bought me… even that aesthetic-clueless dad of mine said it looked nice… yes, I’ll wear this!

Only, in this weather it might be a bit chilly…

While she was mulling it over, her phone suddenly chimed.

Her eyes lit up; she dove onto the bed, and sure enough, it was a message from Lu Li.

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: “Tomorrow, can you bring Little White?”

Cutest Linlin in the World: “Why?”

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: “I rather like it.”

Shao Linlin frowned; she didn’t want to bring Little White again… last time the cat had competed with her for attention!

So infuriating!

Cutest Linlin in the World: “Could I not bring it? Little White isn’t the type who likes going out…”

The shrewd Shao Linlin would never let that tragedy repeat!

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: “I see…”

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: [animated sticker]

It was a kitten with watery eyes, waving its paws up and down in a pleading gesture.

Shao Linlin melted at once.

Cutest Linlin in the World: “Little White just spoke up; it said it absolutely loves going out… it was my misunderstanding!”

Bright Lu Li’s Lu Li: [animated sticker] [animated sticker]

A kitten stood on its hind legs, twirled in place with outstretched arms, and petal rain fell behind it.

Another kitten crawled into bed, pulled up the covers, and a moon rose behind it.

Cutest Linlin in the World: “Good night!”

Lu Li was so much fun!

She flung her phone away and rollicked across the bed, the boards thumping; awakened again, Little White leapt up angrily and whipped her backside with its tail…

…

Because his dating-game core had been in deep sleep (The dating game caused his main body to go into deep sleep) for 4 hours, Lu Li wasn’t that sleepy even though it was still the middle of the night.

Instead, he felt a bit hungry.

He had skipped dinner, and heartless Xiao Mingyue hadn’t even let him nibble anything, so his stomach now growled.

He set down his phone, planning to cook a bowl of noodles in the living room.

But the moment he switched on the light he froze, for half a box of washed strawberries sat quietly on the table.

That silly girl… Lu Li looked toward Lu Yao’s room and shook his head gently.

With strawberries to eat, he forgot all about noodles.

The night passed in a flash.

Lu Li remembered that strawberries with cream were very sweet.

…

Early the next morning, Lu Li got up.

Instead of exercising in the park like the previous two days, he headed to the square.

He was afraid of running into that busty office lady and her equally busty grandmother again… it would be awkward since the blind date hadn’t worked out.

There weren’t many people in the square that morning; Lu Li finished his Taiji comfortably, bought some groceries, and headed home.

Surprisingly, the always-sleepy Lu Yao had gotten up early and was already washed and groomed.

“It’s Saturday… why not sleep in a bit?” Lu Li asked curiously.

Sparkles danced in Lu Yao’s almond-shaped eyes. “Phone! Phone!”

Heh, she was still a kid at heart, full of longing for a phone.

“After we buy it, you are not allowed to neglect your studies over playing with it,” Lu Li lectured.

“Yeah, yeah, I know!” Lu Yao pouted impatiently. “So naggy… totally unmanly.”

Lu Li let out a cold snort and chopped her head with a karate-hand.

Lu Yao clutched her head at once and muttered complaints under her breath.

After they had eaten, Lu Li saw that it was 9 o’clock, the bank’s opening time, so he left first to cash the check.

Once he had the cash, he would return to pick up Lu Yao.

He had no idea that the moment he left, someone knocked on the door.

“Excuse me, is anyone home?” came a refined, mature woman’s voice from outside.

Lu Yao peered through the peephole, confirmed it was only a woman, and cautiously opened the door.

W-wow, such a pretty lady… Lu Yao gasped inwardly the moment the door opened.

She hadn’t seen clearly through the peephole just now.

Now, at close range, the beautiful sister’s features were brilliant and elegant, her whole body exuding a mature allure.

The tiny beauty mark at the corner of her eye especially added a touch of romance, the perfect finishing stroke.

Her legs were gorgeous too; that idiot big brother of mine would never look away! Lu Yao couldn’t help swallowing.

The beautiful woman stepped forward with a gift bag and laughed softly. “Hello, little sister; my surname is Qin. I’ve just moved in and will be living across the hall…”
