Bab 8: I don't want a sister
" Wait, what if I don't want a sister?"
Qian Lu paused, looking at Qian Yih in surprise. Qian Lu's grin subsided as Qian Yih's words slowly set in. He hesitated, wondering what to say. Qian Yih decided to continue.
" I think a sister would be unnecessary, after all, I have friends to accompany me, "
Qian Lu gulped, if Qian Yih did not agree to Jing Lian's adoption, there was no way to convince An Xiu! He had to figure out a way to get Qian Yih on his side. He tried again, this time using the excuse of studies. Reasoning that Jin Lian was a year older, she could help the grade-conscious Qian Yih to improve on her studies.
Qian Yih held back a sneer. Jing Lian was never even a good student, going as far as dropping out of school. Why would she ever need her help?
Too hopeful that she would agree to his request, he clapped his hands together in glee. Qian Yih snickered under her breathe.
" Dad, my studies are great. I'm afraid a sister would only cause distractions, " She destroyed his idea immediately. She smiled curtly, remembering the time when Qian Lian would annoy her for money until she had no peace to study. Qian Yih pulled her blanket towards her chin. A movement to show that she wanted to rest.
Qian Lu fumbled for words, in the end deciding that he would try again another time.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Qian Yih nestled into her bed.
Maybe this time things could change.
Maybe, this was some higher authority that decided to give her another chance at life. Maybe...
Maybe...
Yet, maybe this is a cruel joke on her where she tries her very best to change her life and ends up ruining everything? What if, the result would still be the same? Jin Lian still gets adopted, Long Wei becomes someone else's fiance, and her whole world comes crashing down again?
Qian Yih shook her head. Her heart has already been broken, torn, stepped on. No more. No more of allowing others to step all over her. Her heart wouldn't be able to take it.
With that in her tattered heart, Qian Yih fell onto sweet slumber.
