Chapter 31 - 31

My Sister Never Said She Was a Creepy Tale

In two days, Yue Yiyue followed Gu Nanqiu, filling up their entire home bit by bit.

Time flew, and the day for university registration arrived.

Yue Yiyue saw on the campus wall that many people were planning to wait for Gu Nanqiu at the school gate.

Yue Yiyue looked at the person next to her, whose beauty transcended the mundane. She suddenly felt a strange itch in her hand, so she followed her instinct and stroked Gu Nanqiu's beautiful, smooth hair.

Gu Nanqiu obediently leaned in and rubbed against her, then shifted slightly, placing her face in Yue Yiyue's palm: "Are you curious about my outer appearance?"

"Or do you have any dissatisfaction with this appearance?"

Ignoring Gu Nanqiu's somewhat strange words, Yue Yiyue shook her head: "I just wanted to touch you. Oh, right, we should go separately for registration and contact each other by phone later. Are we eating out today?"

Yue Yiyue handed the flyer she had received to Gu Nanqiu.

It was for a newly opened restaurant in a nearby mall, rumored to have particularly delicious Shuizhu Yu (Sichuan boiled fish).

In her memory, Gu Nanqiu seemed to especially like this kind of dish.

Gu Nanqiu leaned over to take a look.

After confirming their plans, Yue Yiyue watched Gu Nanqiu happily skip to the room to look through clothes.

Once Nanqiu's figure completely disappeared, she held her head, which had been throbbing occasionally lately.

Recently, strange fragments kept flashing in her mind, all related to Gu Nanqiu.

But they were all blurry and indistinct.

Yue Yiyue suspected that something didn't want her to remember.

Yet, because it was related to Gu Nanqiu… she was a little curious.

Everything she did now was based on instinct—to be good to Gu Nanqiu.

But seeing Gu Nanqiu's nostalgic expression or occasionally disappointed look…

Yue Yiyue couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Who was Nanqiu remembering through her?

A person she was once able to cherish?

Was she being so kind to herself because she somewhat resembled that person?

Yue Yiyue dared not ask. She only hoped she could do better, at least enough to make Nanqiu happy by her side.

"Yiyue, shall we wear clothes of the same color palette today? I'll wear this one." Gu Nanqiu brought out two outfits of similar styles and placed them on the sofa. She then turned around and scurried back, bringing out the trousers she had chosen, along with accessories: "That way, everyone can tell we are together at a glance!"

"Alright, no problem." Yue Yiyue looked at the clothing, which was not quite her usual style, and picked it up with a smile: "Then I'll go change now."

The clothes Gu Nanqiu chose for her actually looked quite suitable.

With a sleeveless T-shirt and wide-leg pants, Yue Yiyue was already relatively tall, and the outfit gave her an indescribable sense of style.

She fastened the chains onto the pants and put on the silver necklace Gu Nanqiu had given her.

It had the letter 'G' on it.

It looked a bit like… a dog tag.

But no matter what it was, Yue Yiyue willingly wore it.

She looked at herself in the mirror, tying the black and red plaid shirt around her waist.

Since she had been eating with Gu Nanqiu, her complexion had improved a lot.

Her formerly sunken cheeks now had a slight plumpness.

She was still a bit thin, but her height carried the outfit well.

To match the look, Yue Yiyue tied her shoulder-length hair into a high ponytail, making her look slightly more energetic.

Finally… her gaze fell on the lipstick Gu Nanqiu had taken her to buy last time. It was newly opened and had only been applied a few times.

"Yiyue, are you ready?" Gu Nanqiu knocked on the door.

After a clatter, Yue Yiyue opened the door: "I'm ready, I'm done."

First, she saw Gu Nanqiu, who was wearing a similar outfit to herself, only Gu Nanqiu had a short-sleeved T-shirt with a matching red and black plaid shirt jacket over it.

She wore denim shorts underneath and the same silver necklace.

The letter on hers was 'Y'.

Gu Nanqiu stood blocking the doorway, looking obediently as if waiting for a reward. Yue Yiyue felt her base instincts start to stir again. A strange feeling named Gu Nanqiu is trying to please me filled her chest cavity.

"Yiyue, are you surprised?" She leaned in and hooked her arms around Yue Yiyue's neck, lowering her head: "In that case, can this me ask you for a kiss?"

It was so annoying; she had been worried about Yue Yiyue noticing something amiss these past few days and had held back, apart from the morning and evening kisses.

The interest from the previous days was not enough to sustain her through this period.

She truly wanted to just tie Yue Yiyue up in the house, first [beep]—then [beep]—drink all her [beep]—and make Yiyue feel the ultimate joy, so she would never think about those irrelevant things again.

It would be best if they could exchange the brand/mark again.

Instead of only being able to use these small items to secretly declare that Yue Yiyue belonged to her.

Yue Yiyue stood on her tiptoes, cautiously exchanging a wet, deep kiss with Gu Nanqiu.

She watched as Gu Nanqiu's lips were stained with the same color as hers, her eyes glistened with tears, and her eye corners were slightly red.

Gu Nanqiu tilted her head slightly, pointing to her neck: "Yiyue, can you leave a mark here? I don't want to be bothered by boring people hitting on me anymore."

"Just let them misunderstand our relationship, okay? That way, it can block some trouble for me." She whispered coaxingly. The words she spoke made no effort to conceal her little, selfish desire.

She wanted everyone to know that she belonged to Yue Yiyue.

Yue Yiyue took a step back and pulled a tissue from the desk. She shook her head: "Nanqiu, we can't make a scene."

Like a caring older sister, she wiped away the excess color from Gu Nanqiu's lips.

She then turned to reapply her own lipstick.

Gu Nanqiu felt a little regretful. She should have modified the memory so that kissing Gu Nanqiu anywhere was considered normal.

However, the way Yue Yiyue was just now also made her very happy.

She actively kissed her.

She touched her own lips, carefully savoring the wonderful taste.

At that time, Yue Yiyue's eyes were closed, and only Gu Nanqiu could see the expression of the other person immersed in lust.

She constantly reminded herself to quit while she was ahead and not to push Yue Yiyue too hard.

It still needed a little time. No need to rush; eventually, Yue Yiyue would walk toward her.

She just needed to be a little more patient.

Just a little more patient.

The sun in September was still strong. Yue Yiyue handed the sun umbrella to Gu Nanqiu and made sure she had wipes in her bag, and that she had everything needed for registration: "Our departments are different. Contact me after you finish registering. If you meet new friends and want to go out with them, just send me a message."

"There won't be anyone else, really." Gu Nanqiu took the umbrella from Yue Yiyue's hand and handed her the hair tie she was wearing: "You wear this for me. You, on the other hand, be careful not to be deceived by any strange people out of kindness. See you in a bit, okay."

The people at the school gate had long been attracted by Gu Nanqiu. They stood nearby, looking at her intentionally or unintentionally as she spoke with her companion.

Waiting for their opportunity.

Yue Yiyue nodded. She walked toward the direction of the Faculty of Arts, because she knew that if she stayed here, Gu Nanqiu would consider her feelings and not go out to meet new friends.

If Gu Nanqiu met more friends, would she still choose her?

On the way to the Faculty of Arts, several senior students' eyes lit up when they saw Yue Yiyue. They approached her, asking if she would consider joining a club.

Or whether she would agree to have her picture taken.

Yue Yiyue shook her head, rejecting them all.

"She's a cool girl with a poker face."

"Right, right. She has a very unique aura, a kind of melancholic cool sister vibe. Paired with this outfit and that messy haircut, when she just looked over, I declare her my favorite girl!"

"Eh, but she has a hair tie on her hand that doesn't match her style. Could it be…"

"Don't say that—that wouldn't be appropriate. This freshman looks like she came alone, except she didn't bring any luggage…"

Yue Yiyue hadn't walked far, and hearing their conversation, she looked up and saw her reflection in the glass.

Because she was wearing the outfit Gu Nanqiu chose, she looked better than usual.

She subconsciously touched the hair tie on her wrist, thinking that if they saw Gu Nanqiu, they definitely wouldn't think that.

Gu Nanqiu, the most dazzling presence.

Yue Yiyue went to the welcoming area to complete her registration, joined the class group, and under the instructor's inquiry, Yue Yiyue stated that she would not be living on campus and had rented an apartment nearby.

She wrote down the name of the residential area as required by the instructor.

The instructor looked at the name and gave the student in front of him a strange look: "Student, this area nearby hasn't been very peaceful recently. Please be careful when you go out."

Now it was Yue Yiyue's turn to find it strange.

She remembered the comment on the school's confession wall from before.

After politely thanking the teacher, Yue Yiyue found a pavilion and sat down.

She was somewhat bored, scrolling through part-time jobs available nearby.

She couldn't stay idle; she always felt like she had to do something.

In the bustling crowd, Yue Yiyue seemed like the most ordinary passerby.

She was insignificant, and when she was quiet, she wouldn't be noticed by others.

Lively footsteps approached, and Yue Yiyue seemed to sense something. She looked up and saw Gu Nanqiu running toward her in a hurry.

She wore a cheerful smile and was hugging something in her arms.

Yue Yiyue got up and quickly walked toward Gu Nanqiu.

"How did you know I was here?" Yue Yiyue took Gu Nanqiu's bag, carrying a hint of anticipation that she herself hadn't noticed.

"It was very obvious! You were sitting there, so tiny, wearing the outfit I carefully selected. The moment I walked here, you were all I could see!" Gu Nanqiu smiled brightly: "I'm finished! I heard people complimenting you on the way; they said you looked very handsome."

Gu Nanqiu hooked her arm into Yue Yiyue's: "Do you think we should go check out that coffee shop and take some photos today?"

Take photos, and then we can change our profile pictures to the two of us.

Recalling the compliments about Yue Yiyue that she heard on the way.

Gu Nanqiu felt a pang of jealousy.

She really shouldn't have let Yue Yiyue go out alone.

She was so wonderful; what if someone else snatched her away?

Unacceptable. Absolutely unacceptable for something like that to happen.

She had no patience; she wanted to possess Yue Yiyue right now, immediately, right this instant!!!

Gu Nanqiu didn't show it on her face. She pulled Yue Yiyue toward the exit: "Yiyue, speaking of which, there have been several incidents here recently where residents nearby had their hearts mysteriously removed. Let's compare our class schedules, and I'll come to your class with you when you have one."

"Yiyue, I really want to switch majors."

But she couldn't. Yue Yiyue said that if she could, she hoped Gu Nanqiu would study Computer Science.

Yue Yiyue said that it was best for two people in a household to have different professions, as this was beneficial for the long-term development of their relationship.

Gu Nanqiu complained, but she still leaned closer to Yue Yiyue to ask for a favor: "Yiyue, how about you change your phone wallpaper to me, and your phone password to my birthday?"

"After all, my phone password has always been your birthday. It's just too unfair otherwise."
