After lunch, Meng Xiaoyu, feeling bored with nothing to do, remembered her promise to make an ancient version of a toothbrush.
It had been almost a month, and now she finally had the time.
If not now, then when?
Determined to act on her thought, Meng Xiaoyu quickly told Han Rubing and her sister that she had something to do, and then dashed upstairs.
Back in her room shared with Han Rubing, she found a piece of rice paper and took out a ballpoint pen from her precious little backpack that had traveled with her.
She then started sketching the design for the toothbrush.
Seeing Meng Xiaoyu rush back to her room, Han Rushuang, who was sipping tea, put down her cup.
She greeted Han Rubing, who was still chatting with the brothers Nangong Yunhan and Nangong Yunrou, and excused herself before heading upstairs to her room.
Watching Meng Xiaoyu and Han Rushuang return to their rooms one after the other, Han Rubing chatted with Nangong Yunhan and Nangong Yunrou for a while longer.
Then she told them she had something important to attend to and bid them farewell before heading upstairs.
She needed to talk to her sister.
If she liked the little one, she shouldn’t always keep a cold face and bottle up her feelings.
If she didn’t say or do anything, the little one might be taken away!
The woman they had just met today, Nangong Yunhan, was no simple character.
From the moment they finished eating, her conversation topics never strayed far from the little one.
Moreover, the way she looked at the little one was quite off!
Her expression of interest in the little one made Han Rubing very uncomfortable.
She wondered if her cold sister had noticed.
Thinking of this, she sneered and muttered to herself, “Nangong Yunhan, huh? I don’t understand why this ‘Heartless Medical Immortal,’ known for her unparalleled skills in medicine and poison and who never saves anyone for any price, would leave her secluded ‘Heartless Cliff’ to come to this bustling city of Fuyun. Even if she had her reasons, her interest in the little one is not something to be happy about. But I’m not one to be trifled with. If you want to get close to my little one, you’ll have to get past me first.”
With that thought, Han Rubing flashed her signature fox-like smile.
Lost in her thoughts, she found herself at the door of Han Rushuang’s room.
Instead of knocking, she pushed the door and found it unlocked.
Entering the room, she saw her sister not meditating as usual but sitting motionless by the bed, lost in thought.
“Thinking about the little one?”
The sudden voice broke Han Rushuang’s reverie.
She glanced at her sister, who was standing in front of her with a half-smile, and coldly replied, “That Heartless Medical Immortal?”
“Oh, you noticed too!”
Han Rubing said with a smile.
“What is she here for?”
Han Rushuang asked succinctly.
“I don’t know! But she seems very interested in the little one!”
Han Rubing said while observing her sister’s reaction.
As expected, Han Rushuang’s brows furrowed slightly upon hearing that Nangong Yunhan was interested in the little one.
Seeing this reaction, Han Rubing smiled, thinking that the little one was indeed charming.
Even her cold, aloof sister had fallen for her.
It seemed their habit of sharing everything since childhood might extend to the person they liked.
Surprisingly, she didn’t mind.
After all, they were twins.
Liking the same person might not be without reason.
But could her sister accept it?
If not, it would be troublesome.
Thinking of this, Han Rubing frowned slightly but quickly resolved to find a way to make her sister accept it.
She didn’t want to lose the little one, but she also didn’t want her sister to be upset.
The best solution was for both sisters to share the little one, but only the two of them.
No one else should even think about it.
