Chapter 177 Chinese New Year
When readers explode.

Tang Yao was being dragged out of the room by her sister to clean the house.

After all, the New Year is coming soon.

Although the two sisters don't have many memories of their hometown, they even have some resistance to it because of their crappy parents.

But the customs learned in childhood are still difficult to change.

What to eat on specific holidays and what to do on special holidays, these things will not change with the passage of time, but will become more profound.

At least for Tang Xun, it became more profound.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have insisted on pulling Tang Yao up and asking her to clean the house.

"Xun, we just rented this house not long ago. Is it really that dirty?"

Tang Yao was led out of the room in a daze. One of her shoulder straps slipped off, revealing her skin as white and tender as porcelain. Her long, soft hair was a little messy, with a few strands of hair still sticking to her cheeks, making her look like she had not woken up yet.

"This is a custom... It's to clear away this year's bad luck. It has to be done. Besides, it's already past noon. Why aren't you awake yet?"

Hearing this, Tang Xun turned around and looked at her confused sister.

Perhaps because the two sisters have been together for a long time, Tang Yao has put aside many of her concerns, for example, her clothing style has changed a lot.

In the past, she would wear the simple pajamas that wrapped herself tightly when she slept.

Now she has let go and is wearing a cool white tank top. The straps are thin and delicate, revealing her snow-white shoulders while fitting her perfect curves.

She was wearing a pair of very short shorts on her lower body, which tightly wrapped around her firm and well-proportioned buttocks, revealing her pair of slender, white and beautiful legs, which glowed faintly under the light.

Mainly because it’s vacation.

Tang Yao completely relaxed.

Although this outfit looks good, it does look cold to wear in the middle of winter.

Fortunately, Tang Xun turned on the heating before asking her to get up, otherwise she would have been freezing.

"Sister... wake up."

Tang Xun was lost in thought for a few seconds, and then she realized that her sister was standing and had closed her eyes again, as if she was going to sleep again. Reluctantly, she took a step forward, called her, and at the same time reached out to help her lift up the slender shoulder straps, hoping to cover her porcelain-like fair skin again.

Only half of it is mentioned.

Tang Xun noticed something, took a look at the uncovered tenderness, her fair ears blushed, and then she looked at her sister who was still staggering.

Is it so relaxing to be on holiday?

She insisted on wearing it to sleep.

"I woke up..."

Tang Yao didn't notice her current state at all. When she heard her sister's words, she subconsciously said something tough.

But perhaps because she felt the warmth so close, she honestly moved forward and hugged the soft and slender body in front of her.

Tang Xun reacted and struggled slightly.

"But let me close my eyes for a moment, just a moment..."

Tang Yao put her arms under Tang Xun's armpits and hugged her tightly.

"..."

Tang Xun had no choice but to hug her sister in return, resting her snow-white chin on her shoulder, and standing up to let her hold her.

have to say.

It is indeed warm.

When the two of them hugged each other.

and……

Tang Xun sniffed with her delicate little nose, sniffing the faint fragrance coming from her sister, and couldn't help but hug Tang Yao tighter.

Although Tang Yao never uses perfume, she only uses shower gel when taking a bath, and occasionally applies body lotion, but Tang Xun forces her to do so.

But she does have a very pleasant smell, a bit like milk.

Tang Xun likes it very much.

Think of this.

Seeing that his sister seemed unwilling to wake up.

Tang Xun adjusted his posture slightly, moved closer to Tang Yao's tall and white neck, and sniffed it again.

She suddenly became curious about where her sister's fragrance was the strongest.

Tang Yao was dazed and didn't notice it at first, nor did she mind.

But their exquisite curves were pressed tightly together, and as Tang Xun kept adjusting her posture, she kept twisting and turning in her arms.

Rubbing and rubbing.

Tang Yao was forced to wake up.

It just feels weird...

"Xun, what are you moving around for?"

Tang Yao opened her eyes and asked in a low voice.

Tang Xun froze for a moment, then replied, "...What can I do if you don't wake up? I need to clean up."

While talking.

Tang Xun's warm breath sprayed on his neck.

Tang Yao shuddered, her delicate body suddenly stiffened, and she quickly let go of her sister: "I'm awake!"

Tang Xun didn't hold on to her either. She didn't come here to hug her sister... and her previous attempt to find the source of the smell was indeed childish, and she didn't want her sister to know.

So she obediently let go of Tang Yao and said, "Then clean up, even if it's just sweeping the floor."

But halfway through her words, she noticed that Tang Yao looked a little strange, and asked in confusion: "...What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

Tang Yao shook her head vigorously, then turned and walked towards the room: "I'll change clothes first and then clean up. It's a bit cold."

"...Don't go back to sleep."

Tang Xun felt helpless and wanted to follow.

"No, don't worry, wait for me for a while."

Tang Yao quickly stopped her sister, then turned around and closed the door.

inside the door.

After Tang Yao closed the door, she breathed a sigh of relief, then reached out and took off the sling from her shoulder. She looked down, her face slightly red. "Why is this broken body so troublesome..."

……

soon.

Tang Yao came out of the room, wearing a white sweater and jeans, which made her delicate and slender curves look particularly beautiful.

"Okay, tell me how to sweep."

Tang Yao was resurrected and straightened her waist: "Where is the bad luck you are talking about!"

Although it was a bit embarrassing just now.

But after all, she was her younger sister whom she lived with day and night, so Tang Yao quickly adjusted her mentality.

"Just dust and sweep the floor. Let's each take care of our own rooms first, and then we can sweep the other rooms."

While her sister was changing clothes, Tang Xun tied her hair into a clean and refreshing high ponytail, looking very youthful.

"Row."

When Tang Yao saw Xun's hairstyle, she thought about it and gathered her own long hair into a high ponytail.

soon.

The two sisters got busy.

In fact, as Tang Yao said, this house was rented not long ago, and Tang Xun was usually diligent in cleaning it, so it was really not dirty.

There aren't many places with even a thin layer of dust.

Said it was cleaning.

It's more like a formality.

Less than an hour.

The two of them cleaned up the house of over 100 square meters and returned to the living room.

"what……"

Although there is nothing too dirty, it doesn't require much effort.

But it’s actually quite tiring to keep bending over to wipe the table.

So after washing her hands, Tang Yao returned to the sofa and lay down directly, resting her head on her sister's well-proportioned and slender thighs, and let out a long sigh.

Tang Xun was fine. She was holding her phone and looking at something. When she noticed her sister's actions, she didn't say anything. She just supported her head and let her lean inside to prevent her from rolling down.

"Kaoru."

Tang Yao noticed Tang Xun's movements, looked at half of the ceiling, and suddenly whispered, "The New Year is coming soon."

"Ah."

Tang Xun responded. Tang Yao chuckled and asked, "You're another year older. How do you feel?"

"I don't feel anything."

Tang Xun said casually, "After all, it's the same every year... But this year will be much easier because you made a lot of money..."

Tang Yao said confidently, "Why don't you just call me sister?"

Tang Xun couldn't see his expression, but replied directly: "Don't shout..."

"How dishonest..."

Tang Yao smiled and didn't mind. She just looked at the ceiling and slowly put away the smile on her face.

It’s the New Year, and I’ve been here for more than half a year.

It was obvious that he couldn't go back.

I have become accustomed to this identity and this home.

And I have a sister who is honest but outwardly harsh, and a beautiful and gentle friend.

What will I become in the future?
Tang Yao didn't know.

but.

pretty good.

"elder sister……"

When Tang Yao was thinking about this, a soft voice suddenly came.

I just said I wouldn’t shout, but in the end I shouted anyway.

"Let's keep shouting like that from now on."

Tang Yao reacted, retracted her gaze from the ceiling, and said with a smile: "Xun, tsundere has been retired."

"Who is the tsundere?"

Tang Xun was slightly startled, and immediately replied: "I just think you've worked hard for a year..."

"Well, that's tsundere."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yao reached out her hand and gently poked Tang Xun's proud breast, mainly because she was really concerned about him.

...a soft and elastic touch came.

Tang Yao was stunned for a moment, then reacted and felt a little embarrassed.

It was a completely subconscious action just now.

But Tang Xun didn't react at all, only saying, "I didn't... Instead of worrying about me, why don't you take a look at the comments from readers online? They're going to explode."

"Ok?"

Tang Yao was a little surprised when she heard this: "What readers?"

"Chainsaw Man."

Tang Xun handed the phone to her sister: "Didn't you update chapter 22? Did you forget?"

"..."

Tang Yao was stunned. She really forgot.

Come to think of it... the episode where Makima was 'shot to death' by random gunfire was indeed updated on this day.

Did readers react as expected?
While thinking about it, Tang Yao reached out to take Tang Xun's phone and found that it was an anime-related forum.

Although the font was a little small, Tang Yao still looked at it carefully.

really.

Readers are discussing the latest chapter of Chainsaw Man...

[You bastard! What are you doing!!! Are you not satisfied with this insane plot anymore? You let the character die like this!?]

I'm freaking out! What kind of development is this?! Everything was apparently fine. The Eternal Demon was defeated, everyone was smiling at the celebration party, and there were candies for Denji and Makima. Everything was clearly going in the right direction! You just cut away! And then you just shot him?

I don't think it's that simple. I always feel that the character of Makima is not as harmless as she seems. I look forward to the follow-up.

[With a hole in his head, there's no way he can be resurrected!?]

[Denci even has a chainsaw going on in his head...]

[Resurrection? Ahhh! No matter what, you, you third-rate thief, must resurrect Makima in the next episode!]

[Firearms... Could this be related to the Gun Devil? I really want to see the sequel! But the show is on hiatus next week!]

[Yeah! Whether dead or alive, I can accept it. I also believe in the third-rate old thief's control over the plot, but why did you suspend publication? Why stop here? I was completely stunned after reading it! Nothing is interesting. I just want to see the sequel!]

[You old bastard! Just wait for death after the Lunar New Year! Why are you doing this kind of plot development? This manga is ruined!]

[I think so too! I can't accept it! I want a redraw!]

【…】

I can tell.

Readers were generally very excited about Tang Yao's decision to stop at this chapter. Some discussed whether Makima was dead or not, some talked about suspending the publication, some called her an old thief, and some said that the plot of the comic had collapsed.

In short.

It's a mess.

Tang Yao went to ANF to take another look.

Because ANF has not developed a mobile version and related adaptation is still in progress, the font size is even smaller.

However, Tang Yao still endured the pain in her eyes and browsed the website briefly.

really.

There are more people discussing this here.

And it seems that it is not just users within the site who are discussing it, but also many readers from other sites.

These people are also comic fans and have heard of Chainsaw Man, but they were probably at school or work and didn't read it right away.

It’s almost the New Year, and I suddenly heard that the heroine died.

They all came over.

As a result, the popularity of the ANF website and the comics section has increased a lot compared to before.

Notice this.

Tang Yao felt it was a pity that the time was too short. It would be great if they could organize a two-dimensional Spring Festival Gala like a New Year's Festival. It would probably convert many comic readers who came here for the comic into users.

The reason why her previous life's Bilibili didn't pay much attention to the New Year's Festival was because the entire website had undergone a transformation.

But before the transformation, the New Year Festival was a powerful tool to attract new users at the end of the year. Every year, unknown UPs emerged, and many single products became popular.

But later.

How to say it, it is quite difficult to satisfy the tastes of both the 2D fans and the general consumers at the same time.

Judging from the change from New Year's Greetings to Year's Greetings, it is obvious that Bilibili chose the latter.

"finish watching."

Tang Yao shook her head and stopped thinking about it.

After all, she couldn't go back, so why bother thinking about these things.

"...Aren't you worried?"

Tang Xun took the phone and asked in a low voice, seeming a little worried.

"do not worry."

Tang Yao slowly sat up, knelt on the sofa, reached out to untie her messy ponytail, and then gently shook her long, smooth hair. She said confidently, "Everything is going according to my sister's plan!"

"Including the fact that they said the plot was broken?"

Tang Xun looked at her sister: "I see they are so excited..."

"That's because they didn't see the follow-up."

Tang Yao shook her head. "After the New Year, those who said the plot was broken will find out how wrong they were. The character of Makima is not that simple. Have you heard of the demon who controls the devil?"

"..."

Tang Xun looked confused.

Seeing her expression, Tang Yao smiled softly, jumped down from the sofa barefoot, and then reached out to pull her up: "If you don't understand, don't think about it. Have a good New Year. I will take care of this matter. Just study peacefully and be happy every day."

"..."

Tang Xun lowered her eyes, looking at Tang Yao's delicate and snow-white feet, and subconsciously said: "But..."

But the words are not yet finished.

Tang Yao suddenly took a step forward and hugged her: "Xun, it's a rare New Year, don't think about those messy things, come, say Happy New Year to me!"

"..."

Tang Xun held Tang Yao's shoulders with her small hands, looked at her sister who was holding her up, looked at the confidence on her face, looked at the charming smile on her face, and finally did not continue speaking.

...I just think that my sister is really pretty.

This is a scene I may never forget in my life.
