After leaving home, they regretted it.

Chapter 20

The sudden question made Qin Xiaofeng stunned.

He seemed unable to understand why Qin Huizhu asked him this question.

"Second sister, what are you talking about?"

Qin Xiaofeng said calmly, "Of course I played it. In our family, only my third sister and I can play the piano. You know the sound of my third sister's piano playing, which has no effect on your insomnia."

"Xiaofeng, I'll ask you one last time."

Qin Huizhu's eyes dimmed, and she seemed very disappointed with Qin Xiaofeng's answer. "In the past six months, the person who played the piano for me to relieve my insomnia was you?"

Faced with the same question, Qin Xiaofeng lost his confidence just now. He seemed to realize something and lowered his head again.

"I'm sorry, second sister..."

Qin Xiaofeng's voice was as thin as a mosquito, and tears suddenly slid down his cheeks.

Seeing this, Qin Huizhu closed her eyes, feeling as if her heart was cut by a knife.

It was not because Qin Xiaofeng was crying.

But the cruel fact at the moment brought her a deeper sense of guilt.

"Why did you lie to me?"

After a long time, Qin Huizhu asked again.

"Second sister, I didn't mean it..."

Qin Xiaofeng's voice began to choke: "Brother Qin Yi didn't let me say it. He was afraid that Third Sister would know that he touched Third Sister's piano without permission and was worried that Third Sister would be angry with him, so he asked me to help cover it up."

"Is that really the case?"

Qin Huizhu's tone was a little suspicious.

After discovering the truth of the matter, Qin Huizhu could no longer trust Qin Xiaofeng's words 100%.

"Second sister, I really didn't lie, I won't dare to do it again."

Qin Xiaofeng's sobbing echoed in the study.

Seeing him like this, Qin Huizhu didn't ask any more questions.

But Qin Yi's words to her emerged involuntarily in her mind.

That tone, that look...

The more Qin Huizhu thought about it, the more she felt that the whole thing might not be as simple as Qin Xiaofeng said.

"I'm a little tired."

The anxiety caused by insomnia, the impact of cruel facts, and the constant flow of guilt made Qin Huizhu almost suffocate.

Tonight, she no longer had hope for Qin Xiaofeng's piano sound, and she didn't want to delve into the twists and turns at this time.

She made a decision silently in her heart, and she would go to school to find Qin Yi early tomorrow morning.

"Second sister, I'm sorry." Qin Xiaofeng choked.

"It's okay, sister doesn't blame you."

Qin Huizhu squeezed out a far-fetched smile on her face: "Go to bed quickly, now is the sprint stage of the college entrance examination, you still have to go to school tomorrow."

"But second sister, you can't sleep, and I can't sleep either."

Qin Xiaofeng sniffed, his eyes full of worry.

"I still have some sleeping pills, don't worry, go to bed."

Qin Huizhu made up a reason casually. She really didn't want to listen to these useless words anymore, so she immediately got up and left the study and returned to her room.

Qin Xiaofeng was left standing there helplessly.

When the door closed, the grievance and apology on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a gloomy feeling as if he had changed his personality.

"Tsk... It's really hard to fool, things are not going well, I have to think of a way."

...

The next day.

Qin Yi woke up very early.

He didn't have the habit of staying in bed, and he went to the bathroom to wash up as soon as he woke up.

There was no one in the living room, Baozi was not there, and Gu Rumeng's door was open. She probably went out to buy breakfast.

There was a new note on the coffee table, the content was similar to yesterday's, but the handwriting was different.

Qin Yi guessed that it should be written by Sister Mingyue.

Because Sister Mingyue didn't go home last night, but stayed here and slept in the same room with Sister Rumeng.

It was still early, and Qin Yi was not in a hurry to go to school, otherwise Sister Rumeng would be worried to death if she didn't see him after buying breakfast.

With nothing to do, Qin Yi found a broom and started cleaning the living room.

After a while, the sound of a key unlocking the door of the living room came.

"Huh? Qin Yi, are you cleaning?"

Gu Rumeng, who came back with breakfast, was very surprised.

"Our brother is really sensible."

Xue Mingyue's face was full of relief, and at the same time there was a bit of heartache in her eyes.

Last night, when she slept in the same room with Gu Rumeng, she learned a lot about Qin Yi.

"Come and have breakfast, and let your sister Mingyue clean up."

After Gu Rumeng said this, Xue Mingyue next to her was stunned.

"Ah?"

If it were normal, Xue Mingyue would definitely collapse on the sofa and pretend not to hear

See.

But now it involves Qin Yi, so after a brief surprise, Xue Mingyue stepped forward decisively and grabbed the broom.

"Just sweeping the floor, sister Mingyue, I can do it."

Qin Yi wanted to snatch the broom back as he said this. He felt that he was living for free in this house, so he had to help do something.

"You are already in the third year of high school, and there are less than two months before the college entrance examination. The first task is to read books and brush papers."

Xue Mingyue pinched Qin Yi's cheek: "Leave things like sweeping the floor to adults. Be good, listen to your sister, eat breakfast and read books."

After saying that, she didn't give Qin Yi a chance to grab the broom, and ran away from the room.

She shouted: "Oh, it's so hot to sweep the floor, I have to take off my clothes, Qin Yi, don't come in and peek at your sister! Otherwise, your sister will make you responsible for the rest of your life!"

"..."

Qin Yi was dumbfounded. This was the first time he had seen such a rogue way since he grew up.

"Don't bother with your sister Mingyue, she's never serious all day long."

Gu Rumeng brought breakfast to the table and shook her head helplessly.

Today's breakfast is much richer than yesterday's.

Just smelling the fragrance aroused Qin Yi's strong appetite.

"Eat quickly, I bought them all for you."

Gu Rumeng saw that Qin Yi was greedy, so she picked up a steamed bun with chopsticks and stuffed it into Qin Yi's mouth.

"Don't wait for sister Mingyue?"

Qin Yi was forced to chew the steamed bun and asked vaguely.

"She ate it when I bought breakfast, don't worry about her, eat yours."

Gu Rumeng kept putting things into Qin Yi's bowl.
