Curse Love Game

Xiao Liu raised his head, as if he had something good to share with Xu Qiubai.

But Xu Qiubai got there first and rubbed her ears and her long, smooth hair:

"Haven't I told you many times that you don't need to knock? Just walk in."

"But..."

Liu Xinyi also knew that Xu Qiubai had said it many times, but she just wasn't used to it. Many of her etiquette habits were already deeply ingrained.

"But it will disturb you and be very rude..."

"A sister barging into her brother's room without knocking is one of the most classic moments in life, and the more casual and impolite it is, the closer the relationship appears!"

Xu Qiubai once again instilled his own ideas and hobbies into Xiao Liu.

"I...will remember that next time..."

Liu Xinyi lowered her head and didn't look into Xu Qiubai's eyes. Xu Qiubai also summed up the pattern, which was Xiao Liu's perfunctory action.

"You said the same thing last time."

"Well."

Liu Xinyi made an incomprehensible sound.

"I'm sure I'm not busy now, how about you do it again? Just treat it as a rehearsal."

Xu Qiubai gently pinched her earlobe.

Liu Xinyi glanced up: "Okay..."

Xiao Liu is like this. Although she may not agree with Xu Qiubai on some points, she definitely does not reject Xu Qiubai's arrangements.

She obediently left the room and closed the door. After about five seconds:

"Are you ready——"

She even had to ask for his advice specially.

This answer would have sounded too much like acting, so Xu Qiubai coughed instead.

"Cough-cough-"

Two seconds later.

"Squeak-"

The door was opened. Although it was far from the strength of the naughty and spoiled sister in Xu Qiubai's mind, it was already the result of Xiao Liu's efforts.

"elder brother--"

She followed the steps Xu Qiubai had told her before, and rushed to Xu Qiubai's chair in an uncoordinated manner. She paused for a moment, then took one of Xu Qiubai's arms and shook it gently.

“What…what are you doing!?”

Um...

Although it was not smooth, Xiao Liu really tried his best to move in the direction that Xu Qiubai liked.

"Is this okay?"

"Don't be so quick to ask."

"oh oh..."

Liu Xinyi quickly shut up.

Xu Qiubai pointed his finger at this "unpromising" sister.

Over the past few days, Xu Qiubai has been using various methods to transform Xiao Liu.

The purpose is to dig out some of the cuteness and likability hidden deep inside her.

Don't always focus on your beautiful appearance when people mention you, and be either blank or negative when talking about your inner self.

Of course, Xu Qiubai also hoped that she could be as popular as Yingqi.

But as it stands, many renovation plans are not suitable for her.

For example, Xiao Benyu’s character as a wealthy woman with lots of money is not applicable at all.

Xiao Liu is really frugal. She has her own set of standards and doesn't want to spend a penny that shouldn't be spent.

As for the character setting of being well-behaved and kind, it can be used, but the scope of application is too narrow. She basically only shows her obedient, well-behaved and cute side in front of her mother, Xu Qiubai and Zhang Yingqi.

For example, once Xu Qiubai bit his tooth while chewing a bone. She came over very naturally and poked Xu Qiubai's teeth, and asked him with her big watery eyes if it hurt.

Xu Qiubai is almost melted by this cuteness.

"sit down."

Xu Qiubai moved the chair next to him to her. After she sat down, she saw the Latin text on Xu Qiubai's desk at a glance.

"what is this?"

"A photocopy of an illustrated book, in the original Latin."

"Wow...are you working on this?"

Liu Xinyi showed a look of surprise, looked at Xu Qiubai's face, and a hint of admiration appeared in her eyes.

Her admiration was purely natural; Xu Qiubai had never taught her.

Xu Qiubai even suspected that the fact that Xiao Liu could get along with him to the level that he was now in was closely related to his academic excellence.

Without attending classes, one can easily master all the courses, his thinking agility is superior to others, and he has all kinds of weird tricks.

The time that Liu Xinyi looks forward to most every day is asking Xu Qiubai for advice on her studies, as if Xu Qiubai is her tutor and the mainstay of her studies.

But this also means...Xiao Liu can't be a top student at all.

Because she really likes to ask others for advice and she really doesn't pretend to be cool.

On the whole, there is only one character setting left to try.

That is - tsundere.

"Xiao Liu."

"Ok?"

"Now there is a situation in front of you. It's raining and you want me to hold an umbrella for you. What would you say?"

"We can't have this kind of conversation outside..."

Xiao Liu was still stubborn, but Xu Qiubai was too lazy to correct her.

"Then change to Yingqi."

"I can get it myself."

"..."

"I mean, the premise is that you really don't want to take it, and that person is your good friend."

"Then..."

This scene seemed to be something Liu Xinyi had never encountered before.

"Please ask, say it's inconvenient for you, then thank her and hold the umbrella for her next time."

"mistake!"

"You should say, 'I just want you to take it', no reason, and then find time to secretly repay you. This is the standard answer."

Liu Xinyi twitched her eyebrows and rubbed her cheeks, totally unable to understand.

"Then the next question is, your good friend brings you a cup of milk tea, but you only like black tea, how do you deal with it?"

Xu Qiubai continued his reform plan.

"You should still drink it, because it's a token of someone else's kindness, and it shouldn't be wasted."

"So you don't say anything?"

"Yeah, I'll thank you and drink it all."

“But the correct answer here is—

"Thank you. Remember to buy black tea next time. If you buy other things, my gratitude will be reduced."

Then drink it all up.”

Liu Xinyi showed a puzzled expression again, not knowing why he said such a long string of incomprehensible words.

This time Xu Qiubai changed his mind. Instead of explaining it to her, he decided to encourage her to give it a try first.

As for the experimental subject, it was of course Yingqi who doted on her the most.

In the drama club, Yingqi treats Xiaoliu to such a degree that even Xiaobenyu becomes jealous.

Almost every day he would complain to Xu Qiubai about Xiao Liu's preferential status in the drama club.

But Xu Qiubai knew that this was Yingqi's way of reconciliation.

The three original members of the drama club were marginalized, and only when they sided with Liu Xinyi, who was also the vice president, did they have a say.

Yingqi didn't want them to oppose her and cause trouble, so she deliberately favored Xiao Liu.

Of course, it is not ruled out that she simply likes to play "cultivation games" and everything else is just a by-product.

Speaking of Yingqi, Liu Xinyi remembered that she came to Xu Qiubai to share something.

"The clothes we're going to wear for the official performance have arrived!"

"is it?"

When it comes to costumes and props, the new drama club with financial investment is extremely particular.

We usually wear sample costumes during rehearsals. After the rehearsal is almost done and all the performance details are finalized, we will go to a special store to order the official performance costumes.

Both the fabric and workmanship are far superior to the sample clothes.

This time the plot is set in the ancient feudal period, so the clothes should be ancient costumes.

When it comes to finding clothes, Xiaobenyu's father is a professional among professionals. I heard that he even hired a designer to check it.

Xiao Liu and Xiao Benyu are set up as sisters, so naturally there will be no favoritism.
