Showing Off

"Gosh seriously, the moment you come back everything breaks down. Also, what's that odor in your room? You should clean up." Mommy Bai sniffed. It was a weird odor, but she couldn't quite figure out what it was. It smelled a bit like a fishy odor, and also a bit like the scent of soil. But the room seemed pretty clean. How weird.0

If Mommy Bai had raised a snake before, she probably wouldn't be so confused.

"Mm, mm. I'll spring-clean my room later." Bai Qingqing nodded repeatedly.

Seeing how much she had startled her daughter, and considering the disgraceful nature of her suspicion a moment ago, Mommy Bai didn't have the heart to reprimand her daughter about other things.

"Alright, quickly wash up, then come out and have breakfast." After saying that, Mommy Bai and Daddy Bai walked out together.

Meanwhile, Furry continued barking furiously at the bed. Bai Qingqing pulled its ear in annoyance. "Are you mad? Stop barking!"

Woof woof! Facing her, Furry barked and spat saliva all over her face.

Bai Xiaofan gazed suspiciously at his older sister and asked in a hushed tone, "Say, did you really get a boyfriend?"

"You then got yourself a boyfriend." Facing him, Bai Qingqing remained extremely composed as she ferociously glared at him.

Bai Xiaofan's mouth twitched, and he said with an evil smirk, "If you don't come clean, I'm going to tell Daddy and Mommy that you came back in new clothes yesterday."

Bai Qingqing: Those were old clothes. Thanks. It was just that the quality was too good and didn't seem like old ones.

"Up to you." Bai Qingqing shrugged, not showing any cowardice.

"Mom!" Bai Xiaofan started shouting at the top of his lungs.

Bai Qingqing hurriedly pounced over to cover his mouth. Due to an over-exertion of strength, she directly pinned him to the ground, making it seem like she was forcing herself upon him.

Bai Xiaofan was so startled that he forgot to speak.

Mommy Bai's voice rang from the living room. "What's the matter?"

Bai Qingqing winked at Bai Xiaofan and threatened him with her gaze: If you dare tell Mom, you'll be dead meat!

There were already enough doubtful points. If the issue of new clothes was raised on top of all that, her parents would definitely get suspicious again.

Having achieved his aim, Bai Xiaofan stopped making things difficult for his older sister. He said with a chuckle, "Nothing. Sis and I will be out in a jiffy."

After throwing their parents off, Bai Xiaofan sat up and asked excitedly, "So you really brought your boyfriend back?"

"No!" Bai Qingqing snapped. She was only 16 and couldn't teach her younger brother to fall in love early.

"But boyfriend… yeah, sort of." Bai Qingqing admitted to it graciously.

Bai Xiaofan widened his eyes and glanced at the door, then speedily got up to close it.

"Quick, tell me. Is that guy your classmate?" Bai Xiaofan asked excitedly.

Bai Qingqing shook her head mysteriously. "I'm not telling. Get out. I need to change. If you perform well, I'll get him to buy you food."

"Woah!" Bai Xiaofan was both expectant and suspicious. He asked, "Which grade is he in? Is he rich?"

Now that she finally had someone to brag about, she raised a brow smugly and replied, "He's not rich yet. But he said he will earn money and support me."

"Chey!" Bai Xiaofan rolled his eyes. "All men say this to coax women."

Bai Qingqing kicked him. "Get lost! No more food for you!"

Bai Xiaofan giggled as he left the room.

Bai Qingqing hurriedly went to the window, peered around, and called out in a lowered voice, "Curtis?"

Strange. Where is he?

Ssss~

Just then, the tree beside the window shook and rustled. A snake climbed out from the tree crown.

Bai Qingqing gasped and hurriedly opened the window to let Curtis in.
