In the living room, Xiao Ye and the four Beast Girls were all present, along with Cheng Bingxi, Nangong Siyao, Liu Ya, and Mu Qingxue.
Maybe it was true that absence made the heart grow fonder, *because Mu Qingxue’s emotions seed a bit intense—she had only been apart for a single day, but her longing had grown so strong that she wanted to just rush up and hug Xiao Ye. But just then, Nangong Siyao spoke up,*
"How’s Sister Yun Bing?"
Everyone looked at him with hope in their eyes.
*Mu Qingxue suppressed the urge in her heart. Right now was a crucial mont to save soone—she decided it was better to hold off on the hugs for now.*
Xiao Ye wore a relaxed and cheerful smile, and said directly, "Sister Yun Bing has made a full recovery this ti—no lingering side effects at all."
Nangong Siyao suddenly jumped up in delight, exclaiming, "Oh yeah, that’s aweso!"
Cheng Bingxi and Liu Ya both looked visibly relieved.
*Mu Qingxue, on the other hand, didn’t have much of an emotional reaction. She wasn’t familiar with Yun Bing, the vice dean of Kunpeng Academy, in fact, they had barely t. But when she saw the joy written all over Xiao Ye’s face, she couldn’t help but smile as well.*
At that mont, Yun Bing and Yunxi walked out from the bedroom.
Yun Bing smiled generously, saying, "Thank you all for your concern."
Nangong Siyao ran over with excitent and hugged her, burying her face in the softness and saying, "Mmm, mmm, you’re exactly the sa as before, Great-Grandma—you’re really fine now."
Yun Bing, a bit unaccustod, gently pushed away her twin-tail pigtail head and said, "I’m only about fifteen hundred years older than you, what do you an ’great-grandma’? That’s not even much at all. Just call Sister Yun Bing."
"I’ve decided, from now on let’s call each other sisters."
The word "sisters" ca with so extra emphasis—whether there was so special aning to that, only Yun Bing knew for sure.
As she talked, Yun Bing kept stealing glances at Mu Qingxue, the young miss of the Mu Family.
Hmm, definitely a beauty in the making, the classic long-black-haired beauty, skin so white it glowed, though *her figure was just average.*
She saw Mu Qingxue’s eyes glued to Xiao Ye, longing so thick it almost overflowed. *Yun Bing felt a little troubled—it seed convincing this Beast Girl might not be so easy.*
*Xiao Ye had already made his attitude clear—he wanted to form a contract with her. If she persuaded the four Beast Girls, everything else would fall into place.*
*But forming a contract was a big deal, not sothing you could solve just by saying it. Everything needed to be done right, which was why Yun Bing didn’t bring up the contract talk right away.*
*Because she had no confidence that if she brought it up now, all four of the Beast Girls would agree. If she got rejected the first ti, it’d be even harder to convince them in the future.*
*So Yun Bing intended to bring it up only when she was sure of her odds.*
Xiao Ye kept winking at Yun Bing, shooting her looks the whole ti.
Yun Bing played dumb, scooted closer and asked, "What’s wrong, Xiao Ye, did you get sand in your eye? Let blow it out for you."
She puckered her rosy little mouth, getting ready to blow.
Xiao Ye burst out laughing, "It’s fine, I can handle it myself."
Yunxi said, "Alright, that’s settled then, everyone head back. I need to cultivate."
She waved her hand and teleported everyone out, including Yun Bing.
Xiao Ye also told everyone to go back.
*Mu Qingxue perked up—once back, it would be private space, which ant anything could happen in private space.*
Just then Yun Bing spoke up, "Si Yao, Xiao Ye, co over to my villa for a bit, I have sothing important to discuss with you."
Xiao Ye was startled, *Sothing important? What could that be?*
Nangong Siyao tugged on his sleeve and started heading to Villa No. 2, saying, "Sister Bingxi, you all head back first, we’ll be back a bit later."
Mu Qingxue’s smile froze, and she silently accepted it, walking back with Liu Ya and Cheng Bingxi, turning to look back every ten steps.
Yun Bing noticed this, frowned, and thought to herself, *Yunxi was right—the biggest obstacle to forming a contract with Xiao Ye is the Mu Family’s young miss. If Xiao Ye forms contracts with more Beast Girls, it ans the amount of care he’ll have for each one drops, and Mu Qingxue should understand that perfectly.*
Villa No. 2, living room.
*Yun Bing was racking her brains on how to convince Nangong Siyao but before she could say anything, Nangong Siyao’s pretty face lit up with excitent and she said,*
"Sister Yun Bing, you’re thinking about forming a contract with Xiao Ye, aren’t you? I’ll say yes on Xiao Ye’s behalf."
*Xiao Ye was dumbfounded—he hadn’t even said a word, and she was already giving her blessing.*
Yun Bing was delighted, "Si Yao, you’re serious, not ssing with , right?"
Nangong Siyao replied earnestly, "Of course I’m serious—how could you joke about sothing like that? Just say whether you want to form the contract or not."
Yun Bing was overjoyed, "I want to, of course I do!"
Nangong Siyao suddenly put her hands behind her back, acting all big-sisterly, and said, "Well then, shouldn’t you call Sister Si Yao now? From now on, you’re junior to —you’ve got to call ’sis’."
"Doesn’t matter if you’re older by one thousand or two thousand years, doesn’t matter if you used to be my great-grandma or my dad’s teacher, from now on it’s all separate—publicly, I’ll call you Sister Yun Bing."
"But in private, you’ve got to call Sister Si Yao, and you have to get my permission for anything you want to do."
Yun Bing, ...
Xiao Ye, ...
The two of them looked at her, speechless, black lines on their faces.
Yun Bing glanced at the cute twin-tailed girl and couldn’t help but rember washing her diapers, the sight of her running around naked in split pants, and those tis she begged to suck on her own toes. *It all felt like another lifeti.*
*Hmph, such a little brat—and now she wanted to be called elder sister?*
Yun Bing cheerfully said, "Sister Si Yao!"
Nangong Siyao felt a rush of excitent, "Too quiet—I couldn’t hear it! Say it again, louder."
Yun Bing’s mouth twitched, and she shouted, "Sister Si Yao!"
In order to form a contract with Xiao Ye, Yun Bing felt that a little sacrifice was totally worth it.
Nangong Siyao, her vanity satisfied, felt great and wanted to pat Yun Bing on the shoulder and say sothing befitting her new big-sister role.
But as she raised her hand she realized that at five-seven, she was a whole head shorter than the five-eleven Yun Bing. So she dragged over a stool, climbed on, looked down at Yun Bing, finally satisfied, and patted her shoulder, saying,
"I’m fine with you two, but that’s not enough—you still need the other three Beast Girls to agree. Xiaobing, don’t worry, I’ll help you co up with a strategy."
Being called Xiaobing, Yun Bing didn’t feel the slightest bit uncomfortable, and quickly adapted to her new identity, saying, "That’s exactly what’s been troubling , Sister Si Yao. Do you have any bright ideas?"
Nangong Siyao stood barefoot on the stool, hands folded behind her back, radiating the aura of a true master, and said with complete confidence,
"Of course I do—being Xiaobing’s Sister Si Yao, I’ve already thought of the plan."
*Seeing how confident she was, Xiao Ye was really curious.*
Nangong Siyao said, "I’m not too sure about Qingxue, but with Sister Bingxi and Sister Liu Ya, I know exactly what to do to get them on board. Here’s the plan..."
