Feigned Pity

place more often in the future to meet the little fairy.
Not trying to boast, but those school flowers4 and candidates in the school forum have to step aside.”

He infatuatedly rested his face on his arms.
Sinking into recollection, “Little sister was so radiant, glowing under the sun.
I can’t help but look at her.
And the more I look, the more beautiful she gets! Her eyelashes were long and curled, I really want to swing on little sister’s lashes~ Oh, and under her left eye, there’s a cute little mole.”

Gu Jing Yuan’s expression remained faint, no matter how extravagantly Qi Yue described her, he was unmoved.

“She must be in the same community, you really don’t have any impression?”

“None.”

Qi Yue looked regretful, “what a pity.”

After that, Qi Yue did not give up, hoping to increase his ranking points again.
But Gu Jing Yuan remained motionless.

Humph, heartless man!

Qi Yue squatted on the sofa, gazing depressingly at the scenery outside the window.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he vigorously and lively whooped.

“Hey! I saw the little fairy at your door!”

Gu Jing Yuan ignored Qi Yue’s overreaction.
This face dog5 has always been like that.

There was a knock on the door, “Young Master, it’s time for dinner.”

Qi Yue also rushed him, “let’s go, let’s go! Let’s head downstairs and have a look.”

He leisurely went down the stairs and heard a woman talking below.
When Gu Jing Yuan’s expression sank, Qi Yue immediately knew why.

“Is that her?”

“Yeah.”

Qi Yue’s excitement suddenly plummeted.

Gu Jing Yuan encountered his stepmother on the stairs.
She had just come back and was followed by a stranger in a pure white dress.

He heard the woman ask, “Xiao Xi, I forgot that you’re coming today.
Have you waited long?”

“It wasn’t long,” the girl’s voice was soft.     

Before she had time to ask more questions, Xia Yan turned her head and noticed the person.
She immediately diverted her attention, “Jing Yuan, you’re at home! Quickly come and eat.” 

The girl casually looked up at him.
Only then, did Gu Jing Yuan manage to see her clearly.
Qi Yue’s description, which he had long tossed to the back of his mind, now became vividly concrete.

The girl had a fair complexion and silky black hair, with tamed flat bangs framing her small face.

Her most striking feature was her eyes; the black and white were in sharp contrast, large and slender, with the tail of her eyes slightly raised, giving off the feeling of quick-wittedness.
The mole under her left eye was as eye-catching as Qi Yue described.

Her whole person looked thin and weak as if she could be blown away by the wind.

When Qi Yue saw the girl, his eyes instantly lit up.

But being surrounded by this dull and awkward atmosphere, he dare not act rashly.

Just then, his phone buzzed, glancing at the message he informed, “erm, my mother told me to go back for dinner.
I’ll take my leave first.”

“Okay.” 

Before Qi Yue left, he could not help but to quietly glance at the girl once more.
The girl gave him a soft smile in return.

Only three awkward people remained after the outsider left.

Xia Yan immediately said, “by the way Jing Yuan, this is your sister, Yi Xi.
She’s one year younger than you and just got transferred to your school.
Xiao Xi, called Ge-ge.”

Tao Yi Xi faintly smiled at him, her eyes forming into crescent moons, “hello Ge-ge6!”

He scoffed, “I don’t have any unheard-of sister.” 

The atmosphere instantly fell below freezing point.

Annddd, I’m back with a new novel for the new year!

Credits to my lil’ bro for helping me with the gaming ‘terms’, cause I was super lost… (づ￣ ³￣)づ

Throughout the novel, please feel free to let me know if there are any terms or idioms that didn’t make sense because I didn’t leave a description or definition. 

It never crossed my mind that people might not get what it meant because:-

1.
I’m Chinese so it just inherently ‘make sense’ to me, and/or

2.
I read quite a bit of CN novels myself, so I’m already used to the terminologies used to describe some things. 

Yet, these terms wouldn’t make much sense to say, for first-time or native English readers.

This kinda came to me when I used the term ‘green tea bitch’7 (thinking it was common knowledge) and my friend was like ‘???’
