Thinking about it, after winning first place in Lecheng, Yu Luocheng figured he’d still have to head to the provincial capital to compete there. There’d be no way for him to help look after his father, then. It was just as well that Yu Yu had come home, so that there’d at least be someone to take care of Dad.
Now that she’d woken him up, she didn’t appear to have any intention of letting him go back to sleep. She was chattering incessantly, with no end in sight.
Yu Luocheng could barely get a word in edgewise.
“Did you stay up last night gaming again?” Yu Yu asked, examining Yu Luocheng’s bleary eyes.
“What’s it to you?” Yu Luocheng muttered.
“Mom’s at the hospital?”
“Yup. Why don’t you go find her? You’re disturbing my sleep.” He didn’t hide the impatience in his voice.
“How can you be so vile? I’ve finally come home, but you won’t even spare a moment to talk with me!” Yu Yu was really losing her temper now.
She’d been smiling to herself the whole time on the bus, thinking about seeing her family again, including her always sullen brother.
But to receive such ill-treatment from him had left her deeply displeased. At her academy, she was typically treated like the center of the universe.
It had been a year since she last saw Yu Luocheng. She was rarely home, always training at her swimming academy. She studied at a boarding school far from home. This time around she’d come home in a good mood, and had even planned to surprise him with a big hug, but instead she’d found him fast asleep—and as if that wasn’t enough, he actually seemed displeased to see her home. He was the absolute worst!
“Tonight, you’re coming with me to the hospital.” Yu Yu glared at Yu Luocheng as she said this.
Zzz…
Yu Luocheng had gone back to sleep. Yu Yu picked up a pillow and hurled it at him.

Yu Luocheng slept from the morning until well past four in the afternoon. When he awoke, the smell of freshly cooked rice was coming from the kitchen.
When he got out of bed, the first thing he did was take a shower, and only after that did he brush his teeth.
He had a date with Yang Qianqian to go out on the town tonight. He couldn’t allow himself to look too shabby.
The one good thing about Yu Yu being home was that the girl could cook. Coming out of his long slumber, Yu Luocheng was dying of hunger. He sat down and started eating right away.
When Yu Yu finished cooking and came out to see Yu Luocheng wolfing down all the food, her pretty features twisted into a frown.
“Don’t eat it all,” she admonished him, “I’m planning to bring some for mom and dad at the hospital.”
“Sure.” Yu Luocheng nodded, and continued to gorge himself.
When he was finished, he looked at the time, and decided to leave at sundown. Normally, at this hour, he’d either be loafing around at the hospital, or else he’d be training or playing in a tournament match. Yu Luocheng felt he was growing distant from Yang Qianqian.
He genuinely did like her, and he suspected that she liked him too. Since the feeling was mutual, he wanted to make the best of it, and see how far they could go together.
“Where are you off to!” Seeing Yu Luocheng heading out the door, Yu Yu frantically called after him.
“I’ve got a date,” Yu Luocheng replied.
“Come with me to the hospital!” Yu Yu demanded.
“Just go by yourself. It’s not like you don’t know the way.”
“No way! You say you’ve got a date—I bet you’re just going down to the cyber café to play games with that lot again!”
“It’s none of your business, either way.”

A pleasant river breeze blew over the bridge, teasing at her hair as it passed.
The white dress she wore was embroidered with pink flower buds, and it did a good job of emphasizing her statuesque figure and feminine grace.
Porcelain-white thighs swayed beneath the knee-length skirt, smooth as finest silk. Pedestrians on the bridge tended to turn back after they’d passed her by—even drivers in passing cars, as though unconcerned about getting into an accident.
Yang Qianqian leaned against the stone railing of the bridge, pouting in a huff over how late Yu Luocheng was.
They’d agreed to meet here, at this time. She’d spent more than two hours carefully doing her make-up today . 1 She’d tried on a dozen different outfits before finally settling on this white dress.
Her hair had taken a while, too. It was a lucky thing that the wind wasn’t too strong here, otherwise it might mess it all up again.
Yang Qianqian looked across the bridge again, just as Yu Luocheng finally appeared. Seeing him, a faint hint of delight arose in her eyes.
However, as he drew closer, her expression changed completely. Walking along beside him was a young lady of breathtaking, radiant beauty.
The casual clothes she wore failed to conceal the lithe, nubile temptations which lay beneath. She had a pretty little face that any man would be captivated by.
Yang Qianqian looked at Yu Luocheng, and then at this sensuous siren by his side.
He’d agreed to accompany her out to town tonight, but now a second woman had appeared… what was the meaning of this!
“You’re talking my ear off. Will you die if you go quiet for a minute?” Yu Luocheng was saying.
“You said you’ve got a date. Heh, maybe it’s that girl in the dress, up ahead?” the girl taunted him.
“Yup, that’s her.” Yu Luocheng nodded.
The girl rolled her eyes. “Who’d believe you? You’ve got no chance with a girl like her.”
“I say! And what do you mean by that?” Yu Luocheng lost his temper.
No chance? Was he such a lowly being? He didn’t have earth-shattering good looks, but he still drew a few surreptitious glances from innocent girls at school on occasion. What’s more, his greatest appeal was what he had on the inside!
Bickering with the girl like this, Yu Luocheng had already arrived before Yang Qianqian. Noticing her confusion, he stabbed a finger in the direction of the other girl. “My little sister. She’s back from studying elsewhere, and now she’s following me around like a pest.”
“Ah. Oh…” Yang Qianqian nodded in acknowledgment. So she was his sister—that was alright.
Yu Yu gaped at Yang Qianqian, then at Yu Luocheng, her mouth hanging open wide enough to stuff a chicken egg in there.
She’d just pointed her out at random, refusing to believe her brother was actually going on a date—certainly not with this dazzling vision of beauty!
“Yu Luocheng, how can your sister be such an adorable little thing?” Yang Qianqian remarked.
“Adorable?” Yu Luocheng turned to examine Yu Yu closely.
