Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Su Qing knew what Sixth Sister would do and reminded her, Don't mess around, or Big Sister will be unhappy. Things are different now. If you hit Little Sister Su, Big Sister won't forgive you.

Su Qing's words made Sixth Sister even angrier.

Didn't that mean Little Sister Su had successfully wormed her into their eldest sister's heart? In the past, her eldest sister never cared if she beat up Little Sister Su. She could beat up her younger sister as often as she wanted, and the latter would not dare snitch on her.

Hah How troublesome! she thought.

So as not to anger her eldest sister, Sixth Sister had no choice but to change tactics.

An idea immediately formed in her head. What better way to torment Little Sister Su than to force her to solve math problems? Big Sister said the new school year would start on September 1st. How could Little Sister Su start school without even knowing the basics? Little Sister Su would struggle in school if she did not have a good foundation.

This way, she could teach Little Sister Su a lesson openly, without anyone calling her out for bullying. It would also show the whole world how dumb Little Sister Su was.

No one was smarter and cuter than her! She would not allow Little Sister Su to usurp her title.

Little Sister Su felt a chill run down her spine, and she subconsciously hid behind Su Wen. Her senses were tingling! Sixth Sister was up to something. There was no way Sixth Sister was not jealous of the attention Big Sister was showering upon her.

What's wrong? Su Wen was preoccupied with sleeping arrangements for when Hengyang returned. They were husband and wife. What if he wanted to fulfill his husbandly obligations?

It was a headache.

Although the male lead's figure and looks were top-notch, and she had often fantasized about what it would be like to be with him, it had all been while reading the novel from a reader's point of view!

To frame it differently, she had always wanted the opportunity, but now that she had it, she was too scared to take the next step.

She really could not sleep with him!

No, no she must have missed something. The male lead must have bewitched her with his looks. Why couldn't she get him out of her head? Hadn't the male protagonist remained as if he were single because he was not interested in his relationship with the body's original owner?

Su Wen heaved a sigh of relief. Eh Why, then, did she feel a vague sense of regret? It had to be all in her head, right? Her mind was conjuring things out of thin air; that was it.

Hah! There was nothing for her to regret. It was all an illusion; it had nothing to do with her.

Having organized her thoughts and reassured herself that it was all in her head, Su Wen no longer dwelled on the matter. Little Sister Su's abnormal behavior brought her back to the present, concern welling up from within.

What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Su Wen felt that Little Sister Su was not being her usual self.

Was it because Sixth Sister had returned home?

Su Wen looked at Sixth Sister in confusion.

Sixth Sister immediately smiled brightly, which caused Su Wen's heart to melt, and she returned the sunny look with a smile of her own.

Sixth Sister's smile turned saccharine.

Little Sister Su watched the events transpire with growing dread. Sixth Sister was too What was the word? Ah! Sixth Sister was too cunning.

But there was nothing she could do

Big Sister, I'm fine, Little Sister Su said, tugging at Su Wen's sleeve, unwilling to admit defeat. She was the picture of a pitiful little girl. While she might have said she was fine, her being seemed to exude an aura that said: 'I am very pitiful. No one loves me.' It was almost as if she were competing with Sixth Sister.

Haha Su Wen could tell that Little Sister and Sixth Sister did not get along!

The two of them were quite interesting. However, she did not plan to get involved in their dispute. She could not lower herself by taking sides in a schoolyard fight. They were sisters; letting them sort out their relationship was a part of growing up.

As Su Xiu said, which family of siblings would not quarrel every once in a while?

It would be fine as long as they grew up well.

Big Sister, I heard from Second and Third Sisters that you're sending us to school. Is that true? Sixth Sister suddenly asked.

That's right! Do you like reading?

I love reading! I like it very much. I already know how to do addition, multiplication, and division up to 10,000, Sixth Sister said happily. Even the kids in town don't know as much as I do.

Su Wen felt her lips twitch. Sixth Sister had long since ceased to surprise her. She marveled how far her sisters would go to impress her, even if they knew nothing about the subject. They truly took the phrase 'fake it till you make it' to a new level..
