The Cool and Aloof Senior Sister Always Flirts with Me

Chapter 120: The Beast Egg Cracks

Although Qi Xianqing was looking at the arrangement list, she still kept part of her attention on Yan Jue.

"What's wrong?" Qi Xianqing noticed her strange expression and closed the book, reaching out to hold her hand. "You've been absent-minded since just now."

The night was slightly cool, but the girl's hand was warm.

Qi Xianqing was almost accustomed to this; it was Yan Jue's unique warmth.

Yan Jue hesitated and said, "Earlier today, I mentioned the team formation for the Five Dragon Summit, but I forgot. Two months ago, I promised my neighbor and roommate that I would team up with them..."

As Yan Jue spoke, her voice became softer.

Qi Xianqing's gaze gradually turned cold.

Yan Jue steeled herself to finish her sentence, tugging at her lips, and looked up at her.

In that moment, her heart raced uncontrollably.

Yan Jue felt a bit resentful towards herself; she should have recalled this when Qi Xianqing suggested teaming up earlier that morning.

However, hearing Qi Xianqing proactively want to team up made her too happy.

She had already agreed to one team, but now to bring it up again was...

Qi Xianqing lifted her gaze, looked at her for a while, and quietly asked, "Is there still a spot? Can you add me?"

Yan Jue was too close to Qi Xianqing, her senses overwhelmed by the ethereal aura around her.

Qi Xianqing smelled delightful, a very clean plum blossom fragrance.

Yan Jue pursed her lips, momentarily dazed by the unexpected vulnerability from her.

Who was Qi Xianqing?

She was the senior sister of the Zhenhuo Sect, admired by so many in the sect.

Many people wanted to team up with Qi Xianqing.

But now, Qi Xianqing looked so aggrieved, asking if she could be added to the team.

Yan Jue felt embarrassed looking at her, her insides filled with regret. "There's no space; it's already full..."

Qi Xianqing: "..."

Qi Xianqing glanced at her, straightened her posture, and ignored her.

Yan Jue slid off her chair and leaned against Qi Xianqing's knee, looking up with a voice choked with emotion, "I really didn't know."

In the dim room, Yan Jue's pale profile glowed with a hint of redness, resembling a lotus blooming in the snow.

Her clear amber eyes also glazed over with a thin veil of tears.

Qi Xianqing turned her head and couldn't help but caress her cheek. "Alright, I'm not mad at you anymore."

After a pause, Qi Xianqing helped her up. "Get up; the floor is cold."

Yan Jue secretly chuckled.

As expected, pretending to cry in front of Qi Xianqing was the most effective tactic.

Qi Xianqing wrapped her arms around Yan Jue, who then settled onto her lap.

Suppressing a smile, Yan Jue lazily rested her hands on Qi Xianqing's neck.

Qi Xianqing encircled Yan Jue's waist, lowering her head to browse the books on the table. "The second half of the Five Dragon Summit includes leisure competitions and team competitions."
