“No need. Just lend me a towel… What are you doing!!”
Even Ye Zhibai, who was still struggling to string her words together clearly, couldn’t help widening her eyes in shock!
Her tone jumped an octave higher!
Because… Ye Zhiyun had leaned right down, bringing her head close to Ye Zhibai’s lower abdomen.
Ye Zhibai could clearly feel her sister’s steady breaths at such an intimate distance.
“Ah… the mineral water soaked right through your clothes. That’s no good… you’ll catch a cold.”
“I… know… that’s why I asked for a towel… Eek?!”
Ye Zhibai’s delicate fingers clenched tight in an instant.
Ye Zhiyun… she had just lightly flicked her tongue against Ye Zhibai’s stomach!
That cool yet faintly warm, moist sensation made Ye Zhibai squeeze her left eye shut.
“Ye Zhiyun… what are you doing…?”
“Why call me by my full name again… Call me Yun’er, okay…? Hiss… ha… Of course I’m helping you take care of it! I told you, you’ll catch a cold like this!”
“Then you definitely can’t…! Whimper!”
There it was again—that inexplicable sensation!
And this time, Ye Zhiyun didn’t stop at a single touch.
She seemed to have tasted something irresistible and kept going.
Ye Zhibai could clearly feel the trail of coolness that wet sensation left on her stomach.
It was far chillier than the spilled mineral water!!
She wanted to stop her, to keep this feeling from spreading further, but Ye Zhibai, who already had so little strength left, couldn’t muster even a bit of it now.
On her coldly beautiful, impassive face, her eyelids trembled faintly.
As if she might crumble into something uncontrollable at any moment.
“Yun’er… that’s… enough…”
“No way… your pajama pants got soaked too. They need taking care of… You don’t want to catch a cold, right…? Hiss… ha…”
Ye Zhibai was utterly done with her. If you’re going to talk, then talk—why all the heavy breathing?!
Ye Zhiyun summoned a bit of her focus and lifted her somewhat dazed gaze upward.
Ahh… Big Sis is still so cool and captivating.
Like nothing in the world could shake her composure.
But… she really wanted to see her sister get all shy and flustered.
Could she make that happen?
No way to know without trying!
Ye Zhiyun was definitely getting a little too bold now.
She tried to stealthily hook her fingers into the waistband of Ye Zhibai’s pajama pants and gently tug them outward.
In an instant, the pure white underwear hidden beneath was exposed to both Ye Zhibai’s and Ye Zhiyun’s view.
Eh!! I’m wearing that inside?!
Only then did it hit Ye Zhibai—she wasn’t in boxer shorts anymore!
No, no, never mind what she was wearing underneath! This situation was clearly going south fast!
What the hell was wrong with this girl?! Why was she trying to strip her clothes off without a word?!
Ye Zhiyun took a deep breath, steadied herself, and tried again to slowly ease the pajama pants down.
But—
“Ye Zhiyun!”
“!”
Ye Zhibai finally reached her limit!
Mustering every ounce of strength she had left, she shouted her sister’s name in the fiercest tone she could manage!
Ye Zhiyun jolted at the sound.
She immediately let go of Ye Zhibai’s pajama pants!
The waistband snapped back into place with a sharp smack against Ye Zhibai’s little white undies.
Ye Zhibai let out a sigh of relief… and quickly tugged her pants back up with her fingers.
Good grief… Being assaulted by a beautiful girl like that was its own kind of thrill, but she couldn’t just let someone strip her clothes off out of nowhere!
Ye Zhibai hadn’t fully embraced her new reality as a girl yet, but even clinging to her old boy’s mentality, she knew she had to put up some resistance.
After straightening her clothes, Ye Zhibai slowly lifted her head.
But she found… Ye Zhiyun didn’t look so great.
She was like a kid who’d done something wrong, her gaze darting all over the place.
Her expression was full of anxious panic.
Finally, the moment Ye Zhibai’s eyes met hers, Ye Zhiyun shot to her feet and bowed deeply in apology.
“I’m sorry!! Big Sis! I got carried away!”
What exactly are you referring to?!
Ye Zhibai had no idea. Was what just happened some kind of affectionate prank between girls?
Like back in school, when girls would do cute, touchy things to show they were besties?
From that angle… had she maybe overreacted just now?
It had been so long since the sisters reunited, and it wasn’t hard to understand if the little sister wanted to act all spoiled toward her big sis.
But that joke was way too much!
She’d almost felt something weird there… Cough. Ye Zhibai couldn’t quite put it into words, but it had felt seriously off.
Anyway, she couldn’t just let the Ye Family’s Second Miss keep bowing like that. Ye Zhibai shook her head slightly and spoke softly.
“Don’t… It was my overreaction just now. You… don’t worry about it.”
Ugh, Ye Zhibai had no clue how to comfort people. Did that come off too heartless?
Ye Zhiyun looked up at those words, her expression all aggrieved.
But in her sapphire-blue eyes, a sparkle of excitement lit up!
She even seemed perpetually hyped up.
Especially after Ye Zhibai’s seemingly cold response.
The strange flush on her cheeks grew even more obvious.
Does my little sister have some masochistic tendencies?!
“Thank you, Big Sis! Hehe… I knew you were the best to me.”
“Hah… Could you grab me… a towel?”
“You got it! Oh, right—Big Sis, take off those clothes too. They’re soaked through and you can’t wear them. I’ll get you something cute to change into. I’ve been wanting to say, you look good in anything, but these hospital pajamas don’t suit you at all.”
Ye Zhiyun half-turned as she spoke, flashing Ye Zhibai a doting smile.
With a carefree spin, her black hair caught the sunlight and shimmered in a cascade.
Then Yun’er happily skipped toward the hospital room door.
Though just before stepping out and closing the door, she bumped into a maid and switched back to a straight-faced expression.
“……”
This little sister…
She was inexplicably cool and flirty in her own way, huh?!
Now, Ye Zhibai was dressed in a pure white dress—simple yet exuding subtle luxury.
The fabric was soft and comfortable, with a cool, silken feel against her skin.
Her silver hair spilled down her back, harmonizing perfectly with the dress’s hue.
It was an otherworldly beauty, cold and ethereal, like a celestial fairy descended from the heavens, untouched by mortal concerns.
But… even with her face still set in that icy expression,
Ye Zhibai’s heart was burning with maximum embarrassment!
Changing clothes earlier had been entirely Ye Zhiyun’s doing!
Ye Zhibai had enough energy to undress and redress herself, but she had no idea how to put on a dress!
She’d fumbled around forever, unsure if it went over the head or up from the bottom.
But with her pristine body exposed to the air, feeling both cold and mortifyingly exposed, she had no choice but to ask Ye Zhiyun to help her into it.
Though during the process… Yun’er’s fingers kept brushing against questionable spots.
Anyway, after a huge hassle, the dress was finally on.
Sigh, Ye Zhibai was growing more aware by the minute. Turning into a girl was inevitable now—she’d have to learn all sorts of new things.
Otherwise, she’d get left behind by the times!
Like that bra on her upper body—if it came loose, Ye Zhibai had zero confidence she could get it back on.
And… judging from earlier when she was down to just her undies, her figure was curvier than she’d imagined.
Ye Zhibai didn’t know the exact classifications for girls’ figures, but she’d done some 2D illustration gigs on the side, so she had a decent eye for anatomy!
Clothed, it looked like a B-cup, but visually? Barely scraping a B+!
Ye Zhibai let out a weary little sigh and thanked Ye Zhiyun.
“Yun’er… thank you. And for helping me change too.”
“What’re you thanking me for, Big Sis? While you were out cold, I’ve been the one changing your clothes the whole time!”
“……”
Oh. In that case, no thanks needed.
This girl was totally a pro at it!
Ye Zhibai sighed even more deeply.
Suddenly, she remembered something critically important.
Right… this matter needed confirming… urgently!
“Yun’er, did you bring your phone…?”
“Uh, yeah, I did… Big Sis, do you want…?”
Ye Zhiyun pulled her phone from her school uniform pocket.
It had a pink-and-white case with a Little White Rabbit charm dangling from it—very girly.
Ye Zhibai pointed at it with her index finger.
“Unlock it… I want to… check the map.”
“Big Sis, you know how to use phones now?! Did you level up in your coma or something?!”
You wouldn’t believe it.
But yeah, pretty much.
A total noob suddenly figuring out phones was pretty shocking, sure.
But Ye Zhibai wasn’t about to admit it and invite unnecessary hassle.
Right now, she just wanted to check the phone map and verify a few facts.
First off, what city was this?
Or rather… was this even the world she’d lived in before?
