Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1302 - 1352: Sisters Talk It Out

"Sis... you’re really feverish today, or did you take the wrong medicine." Xu Shanshan had no idea what Xu Yingying’s true intentions were at this point, so she could only try to deflect the conversation.

Xu Yingying felt that she might have pushed Xu Shanshan too hard, so she pulled the blanket over the two of them, held Xu Shanshan in her arms, and spoke softly, "Shanshan, I’m not joking with you today. I’m talking to you seriously. We were discussing this earlier, thinking about your future, and everyone was quite emotional. After thinking it over, we all feel that the best solution is for you to be with your brother-in-law."

"This... Sis, you’re not serious, are you?" Xu Shanshan felt a wave of intense joy but dared not show it on her face.

"Of course I’m serious. Do I look like I’m joking with you?"

"You don’t seem like you’re joking, but why do I feel like you’re trying to trap me, trying to find out if I’ve had anything improper with my brother-in-law? I’m still pure, you know. They can inspect me anytime."

This was Xu Shanshan’s trump card. She feared the day this might come up, so she made sure to keep her innocence intact as an ultimate explanation to Xu Yingying. This was precisely why she had stubbornly refused to lose it.

"I believe you. You’re my sister. If I don’t trust anyone, I’ll always trust you." Xu Yingying chuckled softly. "You rascal. Were you messing with me on purpose, causing trouble for me?"

"Who asked you to mess with me first? I had to get back at you!"

"That was your brother-in-law’s doing. If you want revenge, go find him." Xu Yingying suddenly relaxed and teased her.

"Oh my gosh, Sis, you’ve truly lost it. Why do you keep talking about this today?" Xu Shanshan was starting to believe Xu Yingying might actually be serious, but the suggestion was too shocking, and she couldn’t dare to agree so hastily. If Xu Yingying had other motives, it could spell disaster for both her and Li Yifei.

"I’m not crazy, Shanshan. I’ll tell you plainly: if you have any other man, I might really lose it. Just thinking about you with another man, while I somehow resonate with it emotionally, feels like I’m involved in it with your man too. How could I ever face your brother-in-law after that?"

"Hehe, brother-in-law and sister-in-law, brother-in-law and elder sister-in-law—getting cozy might be healthier!" Xu Shanshan chuckled mischievously.

"Get out of here! That’s way too inappropriate. I refuse to believe you’d tolerate something like that."

Xu Shanshan shrugged and said, "Fine, I admit I can’t tolerate it, which is why I’ve avoided dating other men."

"Exactly. So let’s cut to the chase—both of us can just be with your brother-in-law. He has so many women around him, and I can tolerate them. Why can’t I tolerate my own sister?"

Xu Shanshan hesitated for a moment and said, "Sis, your suggestion is utterly insane. I’m genuinely a little scared."

Xu Yingying nodded and said, "Don’t be afraid. I’m not forcing you. Think about it yourself. If you’re willing to be with your brother-in-law, I’ll agree. If not, we’ll talk about it later."

"Thank goodness. I thought you’d be pressuring me! Sis... if I do agree, I’m saying if here—what about Mom and Dad?"

Xu Yingying sighed and said, "That’s the biggest issue. I don’t have a good solution right now. We’ll figure it out later. There’ll eventually be an opportunity to help them accept this."

Xu Shanshan nodded and replied, "Exactly. They’ve had a hard time accepting others as it is. Now if both their daughters end up with one man, it’d be too much for them—they wouldn’t accept it emotionally, nor could they show their faces in public. Imagine explaining that to the relatives."

Xu Yingying murmured in agreement, "You’re full of ideas. I think I’ll leave that problem for you to solve."

Xu Shanshan quickly protested, "Why me? I haven’t even agreed to this, and you’re already tossing this hot potato to me? This isn’t fair!"

Xu Yingying burst into laughter and said, "It’s your only option. Even if you don’t agree now, you definitely will in the future. So, it’s ultimately yours to handle."

"Sis, you’re being so unfair." Xu Shanshan was visibly distressed but inwardly delighted. The situation that had long troubled her seemed to now have a resolution. Still, she couldn’t openly express her joy—it would make her desires too obvious. Letting things drag on for a bit before being with Li Yifei would make it easier for Xu Yingying to accept emotionally.

"Who said you were my sister? It’s decided."

"Hey, hey, you’re way too bossy! I’ve always seen my brother-in-law as just that—a brother-in-law. Forcing me into this is too much, isn’t it?"

Xu Yingying shot her a fierce look and said, "You little brat, stop pretending. You’ve always liked your brother-in-law, haven’t you? With emotional resonance, how could you not like him? Besides... when something happens to you, your brother-in-law is more anxious than anyone else. You know how he feels about you, don’t you? I just didn’t think it through before."

"There’s nothing going on! Brother-in-law and sister-in-law can’t be close? Our relationship is completely innocent."

"Innocent... huh. Tell me, back when you framed me, who took off my and your brother-in-law’s clothes?"

"Ah... You’re still thinking about that? And you’re asking me now?" Xu Shanshan’s eyes widened before bursting into laughter.

"Hmph, yes, I’m asking now. It would’ve been awkward to ask back then. Now it’s fine—I’m giving my husband to you anyway. Why be shy? Tell me, what else did you do that night?"

Xu Shanshan first pursed her lips into a smile before laughing uncontrollably. As she laughed, she said, "I really didn’t do anything else. Just took off your clothes and smeared some blood on the bedsheets."

"A grown girl, taking off a man’s clothes—you must’ve been quite bold."

"Well, you were so clueless, Sis! You’d been dating him for so long with no progress. If I hadn’t helped, would you and your brother-in-law even be together? You were both so drunk—undressing you almost killed me. And you’ve never properly thanked me."

"I’m thanking you now, aren’t I? I’m just asking—did you do anything else?" Xu Yingying blinked at her.

Xu Shanshan giggled wickedly and said, "It was my first time seeing a man’s body, so I took an extra... couple of glances."

"Just a couple of glances?"

"Of course, just a couple of glances. What else do you think I could’ve done?"

"Did you touch him? With your curiosity, I don’t believe you didn’t."

"Uh... I might have touched him a tiny bit." Xu Shanshan laughed awkwardly.

"I knew you couldn’t behave." Xu Yingying pinched her, then softened her tone. "Shanshan, from now on, we’re really going to be together for the rest of our lives. Thinking about it, it’s pretty nice."

Xu Shanshan gazed at her and asked, "Sis, do you really want to spend your whole life with me?"

"Though you always annoy me, we’re sisters. No bond is closer than ours. Having always been together from childhood to now—it’s not bad to stay together forever."

"Oh, then maybe I really should give this serious thought."

Xu Yingying nodded. "I mean it. Think it over properly. I’ll discuss it with your brother-in-law later. Whatever happens will be up to you two. But for now, I’d really want it to work out."

"Okay, thanks, Sis." Xu Shanshan hugged Xu Yingying, genuinely touched this time.

"I knew you had this intention long ago. Alright, come and pick out wedding dresses with me."

"I’m not going. It’s not like it’s my wedding."

"There you go again. How about you marry first this time? No one can tell us apart anyway."

Xu Shanshan’s eyes lit up. "Hey, that’s a good idea! We could take turns wearing the same dress and makeup—no one, including our brother-in-law and parents, would know who’s who. Wouldn’t that be fun?"

"Well..." Xu Yingying said casually but hesitated upon seeing Xu Shanshan’s excitement. "But if someone catches both of us together, it’d be hard to explain."

"Hehe, don’t forget—I’m a pro."

"Sure you’re a pro, but I’m not."

Xu Shanshan looked disappointed. "True. Guess we’ll wait and see."

"Now you’re exposing your true thoughts. You’re barely pretending to consider this. I bet you wish your brother-in-law was already in your bed tonight."

"Nothing like that!" Xu Shanshan protested shyly.

"Haha, alright, stop stalling! I’m your sister—who knows you better than me? Hurry and get up. Let’s go explore wedding dress options together."

"Uh... Forget it, Sis. I honestly haven’t figured out how to face everyone." Xu Shanshan wasn’t pretending this time. She’d held a special status in the household, but agreeing to this would mean becoming just like everyone else. Though she’d always dreamed of it, now that the moment had arrived, she felt somewhat unsettled.

Xu Yingying understood and laughed. "Alright, take your time adjusting. I’ll head out first."

"Okay, thanks, Sis." Xu Shanshan stayed on the bed, watching Xu Yingying leave the room. Moments later, Li Yifei climbed in through the window and hugged Xu Shanshan tightly.

Xu Shanshan embraced him just as closely and whispered, "Brother-in-law, we can. We can."

Li Yifei was overwhelmed with emotion. "Yes, finally. I really ought to thank Yingying for this."

"Mm, Sis is amazing!" Xu Shanshan nodded before pulling Li Yifei into a passionate kiss.
