My Online Girlfriend Has a Twin Sister

Chapter 377: Chapter 245: Almost Killed by Ningning’s High Heels

Each of her toes was so perfectly formed and elegant. Chen Yuan’s gaze fell. He silently gathered the high heels, which had been tossed in two different places, and set them at her feet.

"How about I put them on for you?"

"No way!"

Ningning’s tone was pouty. She lowered her head to put on the heels, a lock of her hair swaying gently with the movement.

She was utterly alluring in that moment.

...

By the time the two of them reached the living room, Jiangg Yao had already downed half a can of Coke, finished a small bag of beef jerky, and was cracking open some sunflower seeds she’d found somewhere.

Her delicate eyes were fixed on the screen, completely absorbed in what she was watching.

"Looks like you’re enjoying yourself." Chen Yuan’s temper flared the moment he saw her. ’Yaoyao was just as much to blame for this mess, but I was the one who had to do all the consoling.’ "Stop eating. Those are my snacks."

"Don’t be so stingy, Little Young Master. I haven’t even eaten that much."

The two started fighting over the bag of snacks. Watching them, Jiangg Ning was rendered a little speechless by their childishness. She turned away, her eyes scanning the room as if searching for something.

Jiangg Yao clutched the sunflower seeds under her like a brat, enduring Chen Yuan’s embarrassing attempt to tickle her waist. She looked up at her sister. "I found a bath towel for you. It’s on the bed. Go get it, Sis." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"A bath towel?" Chen Yuan was completely baffled.

"Your bath towel, of course. I couldn’t go out, so I looked in the closet myself. That towel looked pretty clean. I saw you use it before, and it’s just been sitting there since it was last washed, right?"

"What are you doing with my bath towel?"

While he was still trying to process it, Jiangg Ning had already gone into the bedroom to get the towel. He was sure she hadn’t said more than a few words to her sister. They hadn’t communicated at all since she went out to the balcony, yet it was like they were speaking on an encrypted channel.

Chen Yuan couldn’t see or understand a thing, yet the sisters understood each other perfectly.

"She’s going to take a shower, Little Young Master. You don’t mind if she borrows your bathroom, do you?" Jiangg Yao smiled, flashing a cute grin that revealed her pearly white teeth. She whispered, "You’ll get to see my sister, a true beauty, emerging from her bath. Aren’t you excited?"

"Uh... is she really going to take a shower?"

"Not that we’d let you watch! Tch. Go hide on the balcony when my sister comes out, you pervert... Although, if you ever wanted to watch *me* step out of the bath, we could probably arrange something~"

Yaoyao leaned in close, her soft, sweet voice whispering in his ear. Chen Yuan immediately flushed, giving Jiangg Yao a forceful push to the side.

"Not interested."

"Then why are you blushing?"

"You still haven’t told me why she needs to take a shower. What did you two sisters cook up behind my back? As I recall, Ningning didn’t get caught in the rain on her way here."

"That’s a secret."

As they were talking, Jiangg Ning came out of the bedroom. She clutched a gray bath towel in her hand, concealing something underneath it. It was plain to see that her lovely, delicate face was beet-red.

"Slippers... Chen, I need to borrow a pair too."

"There are some by the entryway. And, uh, all the toiletries are in the bathroom. Do you need a towel for your hair, too?"

"If you have one, I could use it."

"Okay. I remember when I moved, you two left some hair ties and skincare products behind. I just threw everything into a bag. Let me find it..."

"So that’s what you do? Just toss our stuff in a bag?" Jiangg Yao grumbled. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

"What else was I supposed to do? I’m an ex-boyfriend now. Am I supposed to build a shrine for the things you leave behind? ...Okay, you actually might do something like that."

"I’m not enough of a simp to go that far, Little Young Master. As much as I like you, that would be a bit too crazy-in-love."

"You’ve got some nerve saying that," Chen Yuan said, the corner of his mouth twitching.

Jiangg Ning lowered her gaze, seemingly amused by their banter. She subtly glanced at Jiangg Yao’s expression, and her own mood instantly brightened a bit.

「A few moments later.」

The sound of rushing water came from the bathroom. A cloud of steam clung to the glass, making the small space feel like a heavenly oasis.

The apartment was small, but it had all the essentials. It was surprising that a place this small even had a bathtub, though Chen Yuan was too tall to actually sit in it.

Jiangg Ning lay quietly in the tub, the warm, gentle current sliding over her skin.

Her clothes were folded neatly on the counter by the sink.

...

In the living room, the subtle sounds from the bathroom made Chen Yuan’s mind wander. ’Of course, I’m not having any improper thoughts. I’m an upright and honest gentleman, after all.’

What puzzled Chen Yuan was why Jiangg Ning needed to take a shower at all. It clearly had something to do with what had just happened.

He wracked his brains but couldn’t come up with an answer.

On the living room TV, the educational science show had been switched to a popular new anime from the Neon Country, which Jiangg Yao was watching with great interest.

Chen Yuan couldn’t help but look over at her.

’If there’s a story here, Jiangg Yao definitely knows it.’

’It’s obvious from the way she’s acting.’

"Hey." Chen Yuan poked her.

"What’s up?"

"Why did your sister go take a shower?"

"Maybe she was tired from crying and worked up a sweat, so she went to wash up," Jiangg Yao said evasively after a moment’s hesitation.

"Then why aren’t you taking a shower? You were sweating, too. I don’t buy it."

"Don’t pry, Little Young Master. Let’s just watch the show together. I’m telling you, this romance anime is really good..."

"Don’t change the subject."

"Don’t try to force it out of me. I’m not going to say," Jiangg Yao said, shaking her head like a rattle. "If you want to know, ask her yourself. It’s my sister’s secret, and a smelly boy like you doesn’t deserve to know."

"..."

Getting that response, Chen Yuan felt helpless. Jiangg Yao was being uncharacteristically tight-lipped. It was bizarre how she was suddenly on the same team as Jiangg Ning, refusing to talk no matter what.

Overwhelmingly curious as he was, he had no choice but to drop it.

Chen Yuan sullenly grabbed the remote, giving up on his interrogation. The bond between the sisters was an impenetrable fortress. Once they had a tacit agreement, no one could break it—not even the boy they both liked.

’The only way is to break through from the inside.’

’But now that Jiangg Yao is blocking me, I have no choice but to give up.’

’Of course Jiangg Yao wasn’t going to tell him. It was because Jiangg Ning had a congenitally hypersensitive constitution... and that was something only her future brother-in-law was allowed to know.’

’Since the Little Young Master was definitely not going to be her brother-in-law, she naturally had no reason to reveal this secret.’

’Jiangg Yao’s logic was flawless, with no loopholes whatsoever. She inwardly gloated. Her intellect had once again seized the high ground. She was getting better and better at seeing the big picture.’
