Are you, as meal replacement users, ready for the consequences?

This feeling of having let down one's family is truly infuriating.

"I'm sorry, it was my fault today. Xiao Xiang, can you forgive me...?"

"I don't blame you. After all, you have your own life to live, don't you?"

"I…"

"You will never be a caged bird, Xiao Ning. I'm so glad you've found a life you don't hate."

Leaning against the sofa, with one hand stroking his younger sister's head in his arms, Xiangzi smiled weakly, as if he were trying to hold back something from coming out.

Ankle...don't touch it! It's really there...

"No, I want to stay by Xiangzi's side for the rest of my life. Xiangzi promised to be with me for life! So even if I have my own life, Xiao Xiang will stay with me."

"lifetime?"

"I told you from the beginning that even after we die, our ashes should be scattered together. We can make a ring out of our ashes, or make some kind of artwork and throw it into the sea... That way, we can be together for all eternity, right?"

"It's so heavy, but I'm not afraid. We will definitely live happily ever after."

"Really?"

"Really, I won't leave Xiaoning on my own."

Ningzi wanted to repeat the vow she had made to Mu and Deng once again.

Ningzi felt aversion to repetitive tasks.

So much so that the minotaur-like pleasure of giving others the same words that Mu had spoken to him could not offset this aversion.

"But I'll always have doubts about it, and I might even misunderstand Xiaoxiang... Do you really like a sister like this?"

In other words.

"If Xiao Xiang were given a chance to exchange for a normal younger sister... an obedient and sensible younger sister who would never make him worry, would Xiao Xiang be willing to exchange Ning Zi for her?"

"No, because she's not my sister. My only family is Ningzi."

"Do not believe!"

"Don't believe me? Then I'll make you believe me time and time again."

"Then, after each time, I will start to distrust Xiangzi again. Will Xiangzi still love me as always?"

"I will."

Toyokawa Shoko's face grew redder and redder, and her ankles had become Ningko's toy.

Even so, you still said some comforting words to Xiao Ningzi... Toyokawa Shoko, you are truly great.

Ningzi didn't notice Xiangzi's taut instep and continued to massage her ankle in circles.

"Really? I'm already starting to have doubts. I'm sorry..."

"So what do I need to do for Xiaoning to believe me now?"

Unable to hold back any longer, Xiangzi reached out and stopped Ningzi's hand.

Massaging her ankle might help, but she's really going to break down.

My body has started acting strangely...

"Xiao Xiang, have you ever seen the ocean?"

"The sea?"

“Yes, the sea… Xiao Xiang, do you remember what the sea looks like at night, as you told me before?”

"I think I vaguely remember it, it was black, I won't forget it."

"Hmph, next time, if you have the chance, can you take me to see the black sea... Just the two of us, just the two of us... Is that okay, Xiao Xiang?"

"Okay, let's go during the summer vacation and stay for a few days. I'm sure I'll be able to save enough money by then."

"Really?"

Ningzi grabbed Xiangzi's ankle again.

Xiao Xiang has always been a sensitive topic, and she knows that…

I just didn't expect Xiao Xiang's expression to be more appealing than any I've seen today.

That's why the body automatically grabs it and keeps rubbing it... This has absolutely nothing to do with Ningzi!

"Really...really?"

Toyokawa Shoko felt like dying, but she no longer had the energy to slap Ningko's hand away.

"Hmph, I believe you. I'll go and run your bath. You just wait here."

"it is good…"

Seeing Xiangzi panting weakly, Toyokawa Ningko's mood instantly improved.

How many people have exhausted themselves today?

There are too many to count...

Ch187. I love you, sis x2

Saturday.

This day was destined to be extraordinary from the moment it was created.

This is a day when all humans should rest well... and most humans will choose to relax appropriately on this day and the day after.

Except for cattle and horses.

Feeling completely relaxed, Toyokawa Ningko groggily found the medicine bottle, swallowed two pills, and got up.

Live another day.

"Xiao Xiang, are you still sleeping?"

After dozing off for a while, still half-asleep, Ningzi rolled over and wrapped herself up around Xiangzi, lying on her back.

"Hmm..."

What an adorable answer! I could eat three bowls of rice just from this!

Ningzi couldn't resist burying her head in Xiangzi's hair, like a bee attracted to a flower.

Toyokawa Shoko is truly the softest and most comfortable body pillow in the world. I've been sleeping with her for sixteen years, and my health has improved with each use. My back is no longer bent, my legs are no longer lame, and my heart is almost stopping.

Hehe, if, Ningzi means if, she died in bed and Xiangzi didn't find out, and only when he woke up did he realize that his sister... was hard.

What would her expression be like?

The hard, unyielding Ningzi, with a body as hard and unbending as a stone, and a heart that no longer beats for you—facing such a stone, Xiangzi would recall Ningzi's former softness.

Such a contrast, such terror, could absolutely create the most perfect scream in the world!!!

"Xiao Xiang, I'm going to die, if you don't get up..."

"!!!"

"What did you say?!?!"

Toyokawa Shoko seemed to be under stress and sat up straight.

Her amber eyes were wide open, staring intently at Toyokawa Ningko.

"Are you okay? Where do you feel uncomfortable? I'm going to call an ambulance now, don't scare me, wuuu..."

Ningzi watched as Xiangzi's little hands touched and pinched her body, checking for any abnormalities.

What an adorable reaction! It tastes delicious.

"Cough cough, I don't know what happened just now, I couldn't catch my breath, and my body is stiff."

"Ugh, let's go to the hospital. Come on, let's change our clothes."

"It's all alright now."

With her hands hanging awkwardly in the air, Ningzi hadn't expected Xiangzi's reaction to be so intense.

She hugged Ningzi tightly, her hands slipping under Ningzi's armpits, her movements hesitant yet reluctant to let go, her hesitation almost making Ningzi laugh.

"You little idiot, what are you afraid of? I felt much better after taking the medicine."

Finally, Ningzi's hand rested on Xiaoxiangzi's head.

A gentle pat on the head between sisters is the most relaxing gesture for both of them.

Because that's what our mother did when we were little... Now that our mother is gone, only the Toyokawa sisters can pat each other's heads.

"Xiao Xiang! I'll perform a magic trick for you!"

"What is that..."

Ningzi, who had been released, saw Xiangzi's slightly reddened eyes.

She decided she would never make such jokes again, since her older sister seemed to have a poor tolerance for stress these days.

Perhaps I've scared myself too many times.

Ahem...

"Look, my head! It's gone! Clang, clang!"

Ningzi quickly burrowed her head into her pajamas. She looked at the blurry scene before her and felt herself being hugged again.

My head bumped into something soft... I like it.

"Today... I promised Xiaomu I would visit her house. Sister, come with me. Mu said we can stay overnight."

"Mu? She again..."

What is she planning now?

Thinking that it wouldn't be good to say such things, Xiangzi frowned and swallowed his words.

After all, it was Mu who helped them at the crucial moment... but that's no reason for you to fall for my sister!

I will definitely repay the money and the favor in the future... I absolutely cannot let my sister be...

Wait a minute, if my sister and I get along well, then I don't have anything to be angry about...

Toyokawa Shoko suddenly realized that she was just Ningzi's older sister, and not anything else.

She just said last night that she would allow Ningzi to do whatever she wanted, so why is she still subconsciously resisting the idea that Ningzi might be in a relationship?

I realized I was indeed being a bit arrogant.

"Did she invite us again? She's so kind."

Xiangzi was saying trivial things, but in his mind he was still thinking about how to refuse.

"Yes, I'm planning to go there in a bit, Xiao Xiang, come along!"

"...I'll go later. I've been given extra work today. I'll go over tonight."

"But are you really sure you can go alone? How about I take you?"

Ningzi rolled her eyes; she knew her sister still treated her like a child.

But why didn't she consider that they were born on the same day, month, and year?

even!

"You little brat! I'm the older sister! As the younger sister, Xiangzi shouldn't worry about whether Ningzi, the older sister, can handle things! Don't underestimate the authority and knowledge of adults!"

"just you?"

Xiangzi leaned back and looked at Ningzi with an extremely sinister gaze.

That look in his eyes, he's looking at an idiot, right?! This guy!!!

"Xiangzi, you're done. I'm going to rub your ankles until you can't get out of bed!"

"Don't, don't do that!"

"Not just your ankles! You mean your feet too! I'm going to show you what real spasms are like!"

“Woo…Wow!”

The two of them instantly clung to each other. The room was small, but it felt warm because of each other's presence.
