The vibrator created an awkward situation for everyone. Xu Chuanchuan was especially embarrassed by this situation, and she wanted nothing more than to bury herself into a hole right now.

While enduring the scrutiny of three piercing gazes, Xu Chuanchuan forced herself to stay calm and hide the vibrator. Then, she bellowed at Xu Xiangxiang, "What are you looking at?! Why aren't you getting out yet?!"

Xu Xiangxiang stuck out her tongue at Xu Chuanchuan. However, afraid that she would genuinely anger her elder sister, she still ended up tucking her tail between her legs and quickly made her way out of the room. Just as she was about to reach the door, though, she suddenly stopped as something in the room caught her attention. Then, she exclaimed, "What a big durian!"

Seeing the greedy look on Xu Xiangxiang's face, Murong Shi smiled and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"

After gulping down her saliva, Xu Xiangxiang hurriedly nodded and said, "I do! It's been so long since I've had any durian!"

"Why don't we open it up and share it now, then?"

"Okay! Okay!" Xu Xiangxiang crouched down to pick up the durian.

"Be careful of its thorns."

"It's fine, it's fine. I'm taking it out. Sis, come out, and let's eat it together."

At this time, Xu Chuanchuan had already buried her head into the bed and covered herself with the blanket, pretending to be a turtle. When she heard Xu Xiangxiang's words, she shifted her buttocks a little before weakly saying, "You all go out first."

Ignorant of the situation, Mother Xu asked, "What's wrong with her?"

"...I don't know, either," Murong Shi lied. Then, she diverted the topic by asking, "Auntie, do you know how to open up this durian?"

Mother Xu's attention was successfully diverted as she said, "That's simple. I just need a fruit knife."

"There's a fruit knife under the coffee table."

"Leave it to me, then."

Xu Xiangxiang had already carried the durian outside, so Mother Xu rolled up her sleeves and followed her second daughter.

Meanwhile, Murong Shi waited by the door for several more seconds. After seeing that Xu Chuanchuan was still lying motionlessly on the bed, she walked over, bent down, and gently rubbed the crown of Xu Chuanchuan's head. Then, Murong Shi said, "Don't suffocate yourself."

Xu Chuanchuan looked up and glared at Murong Shi. Then, she said, "You're not allowed to buy any more of these nonsensical things in the future!"

Murong Shi chuckled when she was subjected to such an absurd accusation. "How is this my fault?"

Xu Chuanchuan vented all of her anger toward Xu Xiangxiang onto Murong Shi's body, hammering her fists against Murong Shi's shoulders time and again.

After this situation continued for a while, Murong Shi caught Xu Chuanchuan's wrists and said, "Alright, alright, alright. Everything is my fault. I'll throw it away afterward."

Unable to use her wrists, Xu Chuanchuan smashed her head into Murong Shi's chest instead. "I've never been so embarrassed in my life!"

"What are you two doing?"

Xu Chuanchuan's body stiffened when a third person's voice interrupted their conversation all of a sudden. When she looked toward the source and saw that it was Xu Xiangxiang, her anger erupted once more as she bellowed, "Get out!"

Xu Xiangxiang currently held a fragrant, golden durian fruit in her hand. Looking at her elder sister in surprise, she said, "But I'm not even in your room."

"Scram!" Xu Chuanchuan showed no mercy whatsoever.

"..." Xu Xiangxiang shrank her neck a little when subjected to Xu Chuanchuan's rage. Then, she looked toward Murong Shi and said, "Big Sis Shishi, come out and have some durian."

"Okay."

After eating the durian, Mother Xu chatted a little with Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi before hurrying back home.

Before Mother Xu left, though, the four of them went out for a meal. After the meal, Murong Shi personally drove Mother Xu to the bus station.

When Mother Xu's bus departed, Xu Chuanchuan turned toward Murong Shi and longingly said, "I feel that my mom has gotten older again. She didn't have as many gray hairs compared to the last time I went home."

Holding onto Xu Chuanchuan's hand, Murong Shi said, "Everyone will grow old. We are no exception, either."

Xu Chuanchuan subconsciously thought to lean into Murong Shi's body. However, when Xu Chuanchuan recalled that she was previously waging a cold war against Murong Shi and noticed that Xu Xiangxiang was just exiting the bus station's public restroom, she hurriedly released Murong Shi's hand and said, "Don't talk to me."

Unable to keep up with the situation, Murong Shi asked, "What's the matter this time?"

Murong Shi tried to hold Xu Chuanchuan's hand again, only to see Xu Chuanchuan stepping away and desperately signaling her with her eyes. Then, when Murong Shi followed Xu Chuanchuan's gaze and saw Xu Xiangxiang walking over, she promptly halted her advances.

While fanning herself with her hand, Xu Xiangxiang walked over and commented, "It's so hot today."

"Hurry back to your school, then," Xu Chuanchuan chided.

Ever since Xu Xiangxiang had accidentally discovered that vibrator, Xu Chuanchuan had never once treated her nicely. Although Xu Xiangxiang knew that the fault lay with herself, she couldn't help but feel aggrieved by this situation. Then, she puffed up her chest and said, "Sis, Mom already knows."

Puzzled, Xu Chuanchuan asked, "Know what?"

Xu Xiangxiang briefly looked around before saying, "There are too many people here."

"Let's get in the car first, then," Murong Shi suggested.

Afterward, the trio got into the car and turned on the air conditioning, Xu Xiangxiang let out a satisfied sigh.

"What does Mom know?" Xu Chuanchuan asked, urging her little sister.

Xu Xiangxiang monopolized the back seat and sat lazily. Then, she said, "Since Big Sis Shishi isn't an outsider, I'll just say it."

"Enough with the nonsense."

"Mom already knows what that vibrator is for."

Xu Chuanchuan was thunderstruck.

Covering her face in shame, Xu Chuanchuan turned around and glared at her little sister through the gaps of her finger. Then, she demanded, "Did you tell her?!"

Feeling wronged, Xu Xiangxiang said, "I swear on my pocket money in your pockets that I didn't say anything! You only have yourself to blame for overreacting. Your face turned so red back then that it would be strange if Mom didn't suspect anything."

How am I supposed to stay calm after my mother and sister see such an embarrassing thing?! Xu Chuanchuan closed her eyes and took deep breaths.

However, before Xu Chuanchuan could calm down, Xu Xiangxiang spoke once more, "Honestly, it's no big deal even if Mom finds out. You're already so old, so it's normal for you to have needs in that aspect. Mom will understand."

Xu Chuanchuan: "..."

Xu Xiangxiang was the type of person who would die if she didn't fully speak her mind. Ignoring whether Xu Chuanchuan would respond to her, she continued blabbering, "The crucial point is, since you're so thirsty, couldn't you just find a boyfriend?"

"I'm thirsty????" Xu Chuanchuan said in a raised voice, unable to pretend to be mute any longer.

In response, Xu Xiangxiang said in a righteous tone, "Why would you buy something like that if you weren't thirsty? Isn't that right, Big Sis Shishi?"

"I…" Xu Chuanchuan wanted to refute her little sister, but she found herself not knowing what to say when she opened her mouth.

To begin with, I'm not the one who bought that thing, so why am I shouldering all of the blame???

Although Murong Shi was driving, she had split part of her attention onto the two sisters' conversation. When she was suddenly named, her lips curled into a smile, and she responded with an "Mhm."

Mhm?! You still have the gull to agree with her!? Xu Chuanchuan's face instantly turned red from anger when she heard Murong Shi's response. Then, she swiftly reached out and pinched Murong Shi's thigh.

"Ou—" Murong Shi cried out in pain.

"What's wrong, Big Sis Shishi?" Xu Xiangxiang hurriedly asked.

Murong Shi did not answer Xu Xiangxiang immediately. Instead, she sent a glance at the person beside her, and when she met with Xu Chuanchuan's angry and threatening eyes, she endured the pain and said, "It's nothing."

After getting interrupted, Xu Xiangxiang thoroughly forgot about the previous topic. As it so happened, the car passed by a certain iconic building, and she cried out, "It's Nanjing University! I think Little Yan is still doing her military training. Should we go in and see her?"

Xu Chuanchuan sighed in relief when she saw that Xu Xiangxiang was finally off her back. Then, looking out the window, she asked, "There's military training even during the weekend?"

"Of course. Didn't you have to go through it as well when you were in university?"

It had been a few years since she graduated already, so Xu Chuanchuan naturally forgot about all of these things.

Meanwhile, Murong Shi slowed down the car, looked at the clock displayed on the dashboard, and said, "She should be finished with training and heading for lunch soon. Xiangxiang, give Little Yan a call. We'll head inside if she's resting."

"Okay!" Xu Xiangxiang promptly pulled out her phone.

In reality, Little Yan had just finished her training session and was about to discuss what to eat with her friends. When she received Xu Xiangxiang's call, she instantly recovered from her exhausted state and had her friends leave without her. Then, she said to the person on the other end of the phone, "Forget lunch! Just buy me something sweet! Also, make sure it's cold!"

There was a Hong Kong-style dessert shop near the university, so Murong Shi and Xu Xiangxiang visited the shop and returned with a large bag of items.

Looking at the big bag of desserts, Xu Chuanchuan asked, "Why did you buy so many?"

"Big Sis Shishi bought some for Little Yan's roommates as well," Xu Xiangxiang answered while sucking on a cup of green bean soup. Then, she handed another cup of green bean soup to Xu Chuanchuan.

Xu Chuanchuan accepted the green bean soup and inserted a straw into the cup. Just as she was about to start drinking, she noticed that they had only bought two cups of green bean soup.

Murong Shi had her head lowered and was fastening her seatbelt when she suddenly saw an extra hand and a cup of green bean soup appearing in her vision. Surprised, she turned to look at the owner of this extra hand.

Xu Chuanchuan deliberately avoided Murong Shi's gaze and dryly said, "I'll drink it myself if you don't want it."

How long is she going to keep this up? Murong Shi wondered.

Since the other party had offered her way out of their lovers' quarrel, Murong Shi naturally seized the opportunity and held onto Xu Chuanchuan's wrist.

Xu Chuanchuan turned and looked at the hand that was holding onto her own. Then, she looked at Murong Shi and complained through her eyes, "Why did you grab my hand instead of the cup?"

Murong Shi smiled as she looked at her lover's silent protest. Then, she leaned toward the straw, took a sip, and released Xu Chuanchuan's hand before saying, "Thank you."

Xu Chuanchuan clicked her tongue when she saw Murong Shi's actions. Then, she bit on the straw and started sipping on the green bean soup as well. However, before she could swallow the drink in her mouth, the person in the back seat suddenly shouted, "My god! Aren't you two a little too…"

Xu Chuanchuan nearly choked. After swallowing the liquid with great difficulty, she turned around and glared at Xu Xiangxiang. Then, she angrily said, "Can you stop being surprised at every little thing?"

"You're sharing a straw with Big Sis Shishi?!" Xu Xiangxiang exclaimed as she stared at the straw stained with her elder sister's saliva.

"So what if we're sharing one? W-What's so strange about that?"

"Isn't that strange?!" Xu Xiangxiang cried out, looking like she had just seen a ghost. "You've never even shared a straw with me! You keep saying that my saliva is dirty!"

Realizing her blunder, Xu Chuanchuan turned her head away guiltily. Then, pretending not to have heard Xu Xiangxiang's previous words, she continued sipping on the green bean soup in silence.

This was only a small interlude. After all, it wasn't so strange for girls to behave intimately with each other. However, for some reason, Xu Xiangxiang couldn't shake the feeling that there was something strange about the previous exchange between her elder sister and Murong Shi.

Unfortunately, as Xu Xiangxiang couldn't tell what exactly felt strange, she eventually sighed and said, "You treat Big Sis Shishi even better than me. You're definitely not my blood-related sister."

Worried that Xu Xiangxiang might grow suspicious, Xu Chuanchuan had no choice but to follow up with her little sister's words and said, "I've long since said that you were adopted."

Xu Xiangxiang snorted and stopped speaking.

When Murong Shi parked the car outside of Little Yan's dormitory building, Little Yan had long since been waiting for them.

As soon as they met, Little Yan immediately pulled Xu Xiangxiang into an embrace and pretended to cry as she said, "Military training is so horrible. It's tiring and sunny. I want to go home."

In response, Xu Xiangxiang patted Little Yan's back and caressed her face while saying, "How poor of you. Your face looked so white before, yet it has turned as black as coal now."

The corners of Little Yan's mouth fell, and she wanted to cry for real this time.

Xu Xiangxiang broke into laughter when she saw Little Yan's reaction. Then, she consoled, "You have a good foundation, so you still look beautiful even with a tan."

Little Yan finally smiled.

The sun was scorching hot, so Little Yan quickly led the group to her room. Apart from Little Yan, three other girls were living in the room. Upon returning, Little Yan quickly distributed the desserts Murong Shi bought to her roommates.
