Qin Yue's curiosity was piqued: "What heartache?"
It was hard to believe that something could make a heartless high-level little green tea cry like this; it must be something huge.
"I… don't really want to say." Bai Ningning hugged her pillow, mumbling.
This kind of reason made her tear up while pondering, but saying it out loud would be too embarrassing.
"If you don't want to say, then let's change the topic," Qin Yue asked, "Have you and your junior sisters had enough fun?"
She was in a good mood today; the company project was completed, the wrap-up was basically done, and she could spare some energy to deal with Bai Ningning at home.
"That's not playing," Bai Ningning said seriously, "I'm volunteering, helping the freshmen as a senior."
"Alright then, how are you going to help next?"
"There's nothing much to say, the juniors are from out of town, I'm just helping them… oh right."
Bai Ningning suddenly thought of something, feeling a bit shy and uneasy: "Qin Yue, can I… ask you for a favor?"
Qin Yue raised an eyebrow: "Oh?"
"It's just that I need a little money for shopping," Bai Ningning hugged the pillow tightly.
This was awkward.
Qin Yue was slightly taken aback, then smiled gracefully.
"Money, huh? It's definitely needed when shopping; otherwise, on a hot day, you can't even get an iced drink," she took out another bank card and placed it on her wide jade pillow.
"But if you want it, shouldn't you show it a bit?"
Bai Ningning glanced at her, thinking, are you sure you want me to show this?
Even the pillow has to be compared; is this the legendary competitive spirit of women? Fine then.
She reached for her bank card and, under Qin Yue's puzzled gaze, placed the card on the large pillow.
The angle was stable, completely upright, clearly slightly better!
Qin Yue slapped her hand over, hitting Bai Ningning while snatching back the bank card: "I didn't ask you to show this, you idiot."
Bai Ningning winced in pain and exclaimed, "Ouch... why didn't you say it clearly earlier? I suspected you were taking advantage of me."
"You touched it too, what right do you have to say that to me?"
That seemed to make sense.
"I asked you to show it because I wanted you to talk about what you didn't want to say earlier," Qin Yue crossed her arms, exuding a mature aura, "Go on, about your 'not wanting to say' worries."
Ah, so that's what you meant.
Bai Ningning fell silent for a moment, hesitating before speaking: "The club I wanted to join is no longer there."
"That tea art club where you train little green teas?"
"No, not the tea art club... You actually know about the tea art club?"
"Of course," Qin Yue scoffed, "After dating for so long, I know what I should know."
"It's not what you think; it's another club. Its philosophy couldn't keep up with the times, so it was merged with another club," Bai Ningning half-lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with a sad look in her eyes, "I was just thinking, am I getting too old to keep up..."
"Wait a minute, stop," Qin Yue interrupted impatiently, "How old are you this year?"
Bai Ningning looked down, contemplating: "About..."
"I mean your age, not that, I know that very well."
"Oh, 24 years old."
The older sister crossed her arms and looked at her, and she tilted her face up to look at the older sister.
Their expressions were indifferent, their gazes shallow.
Qin Yue laughed in anger: "Did you forget that when we were dating, you showed me your ID from when you were seventeen?"
That was the ID photo that looked very pretty; Qin Yue had glanced at it and thought about it all night.
"Oh," Bai Ningning suddenly realized, "Then it's 17 years old."
"17 is last year!"
"Then, then it's 18."
18 should be right.
"You know you're only 18, how can you say you're getting old?" Qin Yue frowned, suddenly feeling something was off, "So you wouldn't be lying to me, right?"
How could that be? I swear to heaven, I absolutely wouldn't dare to lie to you.
Thinking this in her heart, Bai Ningning's cute cherry lips said: "No, I'm too lazy to lie to you."
Fine, that means about the same.
Qin Yue was unhappy: "You didn't lie to me when we were dating? You kept saying you loved me..."
The older sister's voice suddenly stopped; upon reflection, she realized she had never said that. Not to mention love, she hadn't even heard "like you."
Goodness, how did she get tricked back then? Was she blinded by Bai Ningning's charm?
"Anyway, that's how it is; everything that should be said has been said," Bai Ningning looked eagerly at the bank card in her hand, "Isn't it..."
"You really don't think I would give you this card, do you? It has eight digits in it."
Qin Yue directly stuffed the card between the two pillows.
Such a valuable card should be paired with a thick and deep "cardholder."
"I'll send you a red envelope on my phone; you can accept it."
She took out her phone, found Bai Ningning's chat box, tapped on the red envelope transfer, and casually entered a number. Just as she was about to send it, she paused.
It seemed a bit too much; let's remove a zero.
After removing it, it still seemed a bit too much. What if with this money, the little green tea wouldn't have to work for her anymore? Let's remove another zero.
Wait, if I remove another zero, I could frequently use economic threats to require the little green tea to answer questions in the future.
Qin Yue removed three zeros in a row, named the red envelope "Sustainable Development," and sent it.
Bai Ningning, who received the 1000 yuan red envelope, looked shocked.
"Is it too little? Sorry, your performance this time is only worth this much," Qin Yue smiled proudly, "It's too late to regret; once something is said, it's like spilled water."
The older sister was extremely happy, as if she had just achieved a great victory.
Bai Ningning came back to her senses and sincerely said, "Thank you so much, Yueyue."
To get 1000 yuan just for chatting a bit, she was more than willing. Once she fixed her inability to speak, she could chat her way to getting the property deed for this villa changed to her name!
"Being sarcastic won't help; it's just this much. If you regret it, wait until I'm in a good mood next time to give you another chance."
"Hehe, thank you."
Bai Ningning was really sincere, even using honorifics.
Qin Yue was in a good mood, but since they had already rolled around in bed once that morning, her skills were on cooldown, and it wasn't suitable to roll again at night.
So, they just cuddled together and quietly fell asleep.
Qin Yue was very satisfied today; she discovered a new way to manage the little green tea and "only" gave her 1000 yuan to send her off, which could be considered a great victory.
Bai Ningning was also very satisfied; she got 1000 yuan just by saying a few words.
Is this the power of the beautiful girl and the white ball? I'm in love.
When the lights went out, the two peacefully fell into a dream, everything was so harmonious and beautiful, as if a world where no one was hurt had been completed.
