A Moment Too Late [GL] by cat喵

Chapter 59

"Senior sister, are you also participating in the competition?"

Shu Yubai asked her.

Outside the tall glass window, a snow-covered plain stretched out, giving off a cold feeling. A plane landed at the adjacent boarding gate, the black runway clean and slightly damp.

People hurried to board the plane.

"Yes." You Fu placed her bag on the seat next to her, adjusted the hair at her temple with her little finger, and looked at Shu Yubai with a curved red lip: "We're on the same flight."

"What a coincidence."

Shu Yubai couldn't help but smile.

Going to the competition alone made her feel uneasy.

Although she wasn't exactly alone, as she had a senior brother with her, he barely interacted with her, sitting quietly in the front, seemingly preoccupied.

Thankfully, You Fu was there too.

The two sat and chatted.

"How's your preparation going?"

You Fu tilted her head to look at her, a wisp of curly hair falling onto her shoulder as she asked.

"I didn't really prepare," Shu Yubai shook her head slightly, smiling as she explained, "I'm just here to broaden my horizons."

"That's good."

You Fu reached out and ruffled her hair.

Shu Yubai laughed and dodged.

Sitting next to her, Shu Yubai felt a sense of ease. Despite her senior sister's laid-back personality, You Fu was much more experienced in many aspects, both professionally and socially.

"Did you have breakfast?"

You Fu looked at her, "There's still some time before boarding. Let me get you something."

Nan Xue sat there, her long legs crossed, with the breakfast she had just bought on her lap. The brown paper bag was still warm. She opened the bag with her pale finger, glanced at the breakfast inside, and then looked up casually to see the two people in front of her.

Shu Yubai and You Fu were chatting happily.

They talked for a long time.

You Fu reached out and put her arm around Shu Yubai's shoulder, occasionally glancing at her. Shu Yubai seemed shy, her face slightly red, nodding repeatedly at whatever You Fu was saying.

Nan Xue felt a pang of jealousy, wondering why Shu Yubai had never shown her that expression.

You Fu glanced at the time, her white, slender arm resting on the back of the bench, looking relaxed. From behind, it looked like she was hugging Shu Yubai's shoulder.

"There's still half an hour left. I haven't had breakfast either. Let's get something together. I'll go; you wait here," You Fu said.

"No need, thank you, senior sister."

"Aren't you going to eat breakfast?" You Fu raised an eyebrow.

"Huh?"

Shu Yubai said, "I'm not hungry."

You Fu stood up, ignoring her protests, and walked straight to a nearby shop.

Meanwhile, Nan Xue watched You Fu leave, her eyes cold and filled with hostility.

Was she also buying breakfast? For Shu Yubai?

Nan Xue stood up abruptly, her small bag slung over her shoulder, holding two paper bags in her hand. Her long, straight legs moved quickly as she hurried over.
