Ugh, wasn't the Awakening System supposed to make me the main character?

Noticing that my crying had stopped, Yu Muyuan also stopped after a while. She looked at me and immediately met my mocking gaze, then revealed a defiant expression.

"Hey, hey, what are you looking at! Haven't you ever seen a handsome guy before?"

She shouted at me in her soft, cute little voice, then revealed her two sharp little tiger teeth, making a cute but fierce look.

Seeing Yu Muyuan acting like a silly little girl, I couldn't be bothered to pay her any more attention, so I simply turned my little head away and looked at the floor next to the sofa.

Out of sight, out of mind, this silly little girl.

Seeing that Yu Muyuan and I were about to start fighting again, Ning Xueyang spoke up, "Well, why don't we take a shower first? After all, my sister-in-law and teacher are both wet, and it wouldn't be good if they caught a cold."

After Ning Xueyang said that, her younger sister Ning Yaqin chimed in, "That's right, let's discuss who's right and who's wrong after we've finished showering."

I didn't look at Yu Muyuan's reaction and nodded.

Hmph, let's not bother with her for now.

I'm too magnanimous to hold grudges against petty people. If I were to argue with her, wouldn't I be just as stupid as a little girl?

239. Shower time~

"Alright, the water's ready. You two can take a bath together now."

Remember to get along well and don't fight, okay? I'll go downstairs now to continue helping my sister.

After rinsing us with water, Ning Yaqin left with these words.

Neither Yu Muyuan nor I said a word as we entered the bathtub filled with water and sat there side by side.

Yu Muyuan and I are both small in stature, so even when the two of us sit together in the bathtub, there is still plenty of empty space inside.

Although I was badly hurt by Yu Muyuan before, I, Gui Yeye, am not the kind of person who holds grudges, so I'm too lazy to pursue anything further.

After a long silence, the atmosphere became awkward again. The thought that Yu Muyuan and I had just exposed ourselves in front of Ning Xueyang and Ning Yaqin, and even argued and cried like that, made me feel ashamed.

Yu Muyuan hasn't spoken for so long, so she's probably in the same boat.

After a long silence, the atmosphere gradually became awkward. It's unclear how long this lasted, but Yu Muyuan broke the silence first, "Guiye, you said they usually don't cook, but today both sisters cooked dinner themselves. What's going on?"

Yu Muyuan didn't mention what had just happened, so it's best if I don't bring it up either.

So, I pondered Yu Muyuan's question for a while, "Maybe it's because I'm here, but I've been here quite a few times before, and I've never seen them cook themselves. In that case, I think it's more likely that it was just a spur-of-the-moment idea?"

"Probably, considering how outrageous they were just now, they really deserve some compensation!"

Speaking of what happened before, Yu Muyuan once again put his hands on his hips in a huff.

"Oh yeah, what just happened..."

Even if it could be avoided, as soon as Yu Muyuan opened his mouth, the topic circled back to what had just happened.

"If you want to argue about it, I'm too lazy to bother with you."

I waved my hand, looking completely indifferent. Anyway, there wasn't much to hide between me and this idiot.

Thinking about what I just did is embarrassing enough. If we start arguing again because of this, then I'll be just as stupid as her.

"Hmph, I won't bother with you."

Yu Muyuan raised her head and hugged her slightly developed chest with both hands.

That's how it is when men fight; emotions come and go quickly!

Soaking in the bathtub, my body felt warm and cozy. The warm water washed away all the soreness from exercising for so long, and I also felt a little sleepy.

I just lay there, lazily, doing nothing.

I don't know how much time had passed, but Ning Xueyang's voice came from the other side, waking me up from my near-drowsy state, "Teacher, sister-in-law, the water is getting cold, hurry up and come out, we're almost done here too."

"Okay, I got it. I'll be right out."

Hearing Ning Xueyang's voice, I responded. After regaining my senses, I could feel that the water in the bathroom was much cooler than before.

Seeing that Yu Muyuan was still dozing off beside me, I patted her on the shoulder and woke her up. "Get up quickly, Ning Xueyang and the others have already prepared the food, and the water is almost cold."

"Hmm? Oh!"

Yu Muyuan nodded, rubbed his eyes, and got out of the bathtub.

I got out of the bathtub and went to the clothes that Ning Yaqin had laid out for us beforehand. I grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on.

But the more I put them on, the more something felt off. Were these clothes Ning Xueyang prepared for me? They're clearly new, but for some reason, I feel like someone else has already worn them.

But it does fit really well, and since I'm not a germaphobe, I don't really care.

But before I could even put it on, Yu Muyuan's voice came from the other side of the bathtub.

"Hey, wait! Gui Ye, what the hell are you doing wearing my clothes?!"

"Huh? Wearing your clothes?"

My little brain didn't quite process it for a moment. "Why do you say that? The fit of this dress isn't..."

"Idiot, I'm the same size as you!"

After saying that, Yu Muyuan walked up to me and forcibly pulled off the little skirt I had just put on.

"Same size as me... Oh, I see! I was wondering why there was a dress here that was about my size, but it didn't look very new. It's yours!"

My brain finally caught up with me. Yu Muyuan didn't say anything, but gave me a look as if I were an idiot. Then he picked up the other end of the towel and dried himself off.

I scratched my head a little embarrassedly, then rubbed against Yu Muyuan and said shamelessly, "Hey, we're good brothers, it's okay, it's just a matter of wearing clothes."

But when I rubbed against him, Yu Muyuan's face, which was slightly flushed after taking a shower, turned even redder. For some reason, it looked exceptionally cute to me.

She kept her head down and let me rub against her for a while before she finally spoke, "Okay, stop rubbing. We're both naked, and it's so embarrassing to be pressed together like this!"

Hearing Yu Muyuan say that, I rubbed my eyes, squeezed out a tear, and pretended to cry, "Waaah, you're already disgusted with me?"

Before you were reborn, when you didn't have a job, you slept with me. At that time, you looked at me with eyes full of gratitude.

Now look what's happened, they're starting to dislike me! Waaaaah~

Seeing me say that, Yu Muyuan stared at me, looking like he was amused by my words, and for a moment he didn't know where to begin to complain about me.

After a while, she patted me on the shoulder and said somewhat helplessly, "Alright, alright, I know you've helped me a lot before, I'll let you put it on, okay?"

"Hehehe, you want me to put it on, but I'm not going to~" She stuck out her tongue at Yu Muyuan and playfully provoked him.

"Tsk." Yu Muyuan clicked his tongue in annoyance, dried himself off, and started putting on the clothes in his hands.

While the two were bickering, I had already put on the clothes Ning Xueyang had prepared for me and came to the bathroom door to say something to Yu Muyuan inside.

"Hurry up and get dressed, then let's go see what dishes Ning Xueyang and Ning Yaqin have prepared for dinner."

Yu Muyuan nodded, quickened his pace, and soon finished dressing.

After we finished showering, we headed towards the restaurant.

What's puzzling is that, for some reason, even though the table was laden with a sumptuous spread of food, there wasn't a sound to be heard from the surrounding area.

But soon, the sound of Ning Xueyang and Ning Yaqin talking came from the direction of the door.

When did they go out? And what did they go out to do?

I blinked, somewhat puzzled.

240. Happy Birthday!

Before I could speak, Yu Muyuan moved closer to the two people who had just returned and asked the question I wanted to ask.

"When did you two go out? What were you doing there?"

Ning Yaqin didn't give a direct answer, but instead pretended to be mysterious and kept everyone in suspense, "Shh, I won't tell you now, you'll find out later, let's eat first?"

"Huh? What's with the mystery? But since you've put it that way, I'll keep my expectations up."

Ning Yaqin ruffled Yu Muyuan's hair, took her hand, and walked towards the restaurant.

I looked at Ning Xueyang and winked at her, trying to get some hint from her.

Ke Ning Xueyang didn't say anything, but a mysterious smile appeared on her face. She also took my hand and walked towards the restaurant.

I puffed out my cheeks, becoming even more curious.

What's so mysterious?

But since you're unwilling to talk about it, then let's just leave it at that.

As soon as we sat down, Ning Yaqin glanced at me, then at Yu Muyuan, and asked, "By the way, do you remember what day it is today?"

Yu Muyuan paused, thinking for a long time but still couldn't come up with an answer, "What day?"

I started thinking about it too, but after a while, I still couldn't come up with an answer.

Our reaction seemed to be within Ning Yaqin's expectations. She clapped her hands, and a servant appeared in front of us pushing a huge cake.

Seeing the cake, I immediately remembered that today is Yu Muyuan's birthday.

Yu Muyuan suddenly realized, covering her mouth with a surprised expression, "Oh! Today, today seems to be, my birthday?"

Yu Muyuan's voice still carried a hint of insecurity. She glanced at the large cake the maid had brought over, then at Ning Yaqin, and a sweet smile unconsciously bloomed on her fair face. "Thank you!"

Overjoyed, Yu Muyuan rushed to Ning Yaqin, who was sitting opposite him, cupped her face, and kissed her.
