Chapter 33.1: Doubts
“You should have knocked before entering,” Shi Hai said.
“What does it matter? It won’t hurt for you to be looked at.” Jian Sichun replied.
The remark sounded very familiar, almost like something his mom would say…
It seems in the future, you two really are like a mother and daughter.
Shi Hai silently complained as he started to put on his clothes.
“By the way, you didn’t change into pajamas. You must have been really tired yesterday, huh?”
“You really get me.”
“Of course! What do you think our relationship is?”
Shi Hai didn’t respond and changed the subject.
“So, why did you come over so early?”
“Of course, to move in! I don’t have much luggage!”
As a girl, Jian Sichun had surprisingly few belongings.
She only needed a large suitcase, and there was even some room left over.
After all, she wasn’t interested in ordinary clothes and didn’t have many cosmetics.
At this time, she hadn’t started cosplaying yet, unlike before her reincarnation when she accumulated a huge collection of cosplay costumes and makeup tools, filling both her and Shi Hai’s rooms to the brim.
“How surprising. I thought you’d have to make several trips.”
“Hehe~ I’m very worry-free, right?”
“However, you moved to the wrong place. Your room is gone.”
“Huh?”
“My mom told me yesterday that she’s adopting a daughter, which means I’m getting a new sister.”
“Ah! Mengmeng is finally coming?”
“So you knew.”
“Yeah, I just thought Mengmeng would have come to your place earlier. I didn’t expect her to come so late…”
Suddenly, Jian Sichun realized something.
Did Shi Hai just say what she thought he said?
The room was gone?!
“Wait a minute! What do you mean my room is gone?!”
“Just as it sounds. If my sister is moving in, then the remaining room has to be given to her…”
Shi Hai finished dressing and asked his biggest question.
“By the way, since you know about my sister, how did you end up staying at my place before? There are only three rooms.”
“Ah…”
Jian Sichun’s eyes darted around.
After all, she used to share a room with Shi Hai.
But this matter cannot be told because Jian Sichun has already revealed her identity as his best friend.
Even if they are best friends, it is too outrageous for a man and a woman to live in the same room.
After thinking for a while, Jian Sichun couldn’t come up with a plausible explanation.
Her mood became increasingly anxious…
Shi Hai approached the flustered Jian Sichun and clapped his hands.
Clap!
“Eek!”
This sudden action snapped Jian Sichun back to her senses.
“Calm down. Don’t scare yourself. I don’t want to have to wash my bed sheets again.”
“Umm… It won’t happen again!”
Recalling the embarrassing incident from yesterday,
Jian Sichun awkwardly squeezed her thighs, her face slightly flushed.
Shi Hai shrugged and said.
“If you can’t explain it, then don’t. No one will force you,” Shi Hai said.
“Thanks… but you probably already guessed, right?” Jian Sichun asked.
Jian Sichun felt that if it were Shi Hai, he might have already figured out what she was hiding.
Shi Hai, indeed, wasn’t oblivious and had noticed something amiss.
However, considering Jian Sichun was a reincarnated person, she must have her own reasons.
Therefore, Shi Hai chose to pretend to be ignorant even though he knew the truth..
“Since you said I’m your male best friend, then I am your male best friend.” Shi Hai said.
“Yeah…”
Jian Sichun smiled wryly.
For now, this would have to do.
