Seeing this scene, Yeye’s pupils widened. In that instant, her expression became somewhat blank.
Maybe she had seen it wrong… maybe it was the visual displacement her older sister had mentioned before… maybe it was an accident caused by her sister’s worsening physical condition.
The moment these thoughts appeared, Yeye denied them herself.
The faint sounds of conversation drifting over from the two of them, and the heightened senses brought on by her sister’s 【Succubus】state, left her unable to continue deceiving herself.
No matter how unwilling she was to admit it, the sight of her sister and Mr. Faang embracing had already become a fact.
And it was… an embrace that happened while she and Sister Farin were not present…
“Sis…”
Yeye instinctively wanted to call out, but the emotions surging up in her heart instantly caught in her throat, making her unable to continue.
Jealousy, envy, and shock mixed together into a complex set of emotions, leaving her unsure of how she should react.
Yet the more blankly she stared, the deeper the scene of her sister and Mr. Faang embracing under the moonlight etched itself into her mind.
The jealousy burning within her made Yeye unable to help but doubt whether the handshake from that morning had really been just an “accident.”
But she also knew that the Mr. Faang she admired and the sister she respected were not such people…
The Mr. Faang she knew would absolutely never betray Sister Farin, and the sister she knew would absolutely never be the kind of woman who would cling to a man knowing he had a wife.
So what, then, was the reality before her eyes? Did Sister Farin know about this? This made Yeye’s heart even more conflicted… even more sensitive.
She recalled Sister Farin persuading her to go open the door first—could it be that this was permitted by Sister Farin?
“H-how could that be?!”
In the end, such thoughts made her retreat back… inside the house.
Standing in the entryway, she pressed her lips together, at a complete loss. But how could the jealousy that had ignited be extinguished so easily?
At this moment, Yeye thought of the matter that Sister Lin had discussed with her yesterday.
The hesitation she once had was gone; she had already decided to agree…
As long as she could help Mr. Faang, then perhaps the one standing in her sister’s place right now would be her…
Meanwhile, under the moonlight, the two who were still embracing due to the side effects of the 【Enhancement Potion】 had not noticed Yeye’s spying.
Faang’s feelings were strange— the comfort brought by the embrace made him feel as if the world contained only him and Yelei.
But the desire that had only been slightly soothed continued to burn beneath the other’s softly fragrant, pliant body, as if it wanted more.
Yelei felt the same way; the embrace had not eased her condition, but instead gave the sense that it was getting out of control.
The other’s well-honed body made her even more sensitive, and this allowed her to feel the other’s unavoidable physiological reaction.
Younger brother Ang seemed to… have such thoughts as well… Was he really holding it in so painfully?
So badly… she really wanted to continue. Then how about being a little more willful?
The lips of the person she loved were right within reach, and the warm breath he exhaled brushed against her face, little by little eroding the last of her remaining reason.
Both of them felt that something was becoming increasingly wrong with themselves.
Faang sensed Yelei slowly rising onto her tiptoes; her bewitching, delicate features were drawing closer to him, and her lips were getting nearer and nearer to his.
But the feelings he held for his wife and his sense of responsibility snapped him back to his senses in an instant.
This had already gone beyond the scope of a so-called “sibling embrace.”
“What was he doing?”
Faang supported her and gently struggled free a little—without holding onto something, the posture felt like it would become even more awkward.
He spoke softly, “Sister Yelei…”
“Mm…”
At Faang’s quiet reminder, Yelei stopped her movement. That soft gasp seemed to freeze time for both of them.
However, seizing this chance, the rationality that had returned finally let her put on the brakes, and only then did Yelei reluctantly let go of him.
Yet the other’s well-honed body was deeply imprinted in her mind, making her gaze even more unfocused.
After releasing Faang, Yelei brushed her hair aside and spoke in a coquettish tone, “…Ang, did I scare you? I suddenly hugged you—sorry. Once I enter this kind of 【state】, I always have a bit of trouble controlling myself.”
Faang avoided delving too deeply into this topic and shook his head.
“No, this can’t really be blamed on you, Sister Yelei. Racial issues can’t be avoided, and Sister Lin and I also didn’t notice that you were uncomfortable and just grabbed you directly, yet I didn’t even realize it.”
“Hehe… why are you apologizing, Ang? This is just a hug between siblings, isn’t it?”
Yelei glanced at little Faang, who was in an awkward state, licked her lips, and then spoke, “And besides… it seems Ang was also affected by my 【Succubus】 state… Miss Ailin is still on her period… if there’s a need…”
“Sister Yelei… let’s call it a night and go rest first, okay?”
Faang spoke up directly, cutting Yelei off, and he did not give a direct response to what she had said.
“Hehe… of course I was joking. I was just a little worried that Ang might feel very uncomfortable tonight…”
Yelei said with a forced smile, her face flushed.
“After all… the reason is also partly me. If this were to affect the relationship between you and your wife…”
Because of the excitement in her body, her words came out broken and halting, carrying a faintly awkward tone.
Faang shook his head, wanting to send Yelei home as soon as possible.
“Sister Yelei, you were already feeling unwell, yet you’re still worrying about us.”
“…I’m really fine. After hugging Ang… and then feeling the night breeze, I already feel much better.”
Yelei forced herself to look as though she had recovered quite a bit and smiled as she spoke.
“So… Ang can just walk me to here. It’s only a few more steps. Don’t let Miss Ailin come out again because she’s worried.”
Faang hesitated for a moment.
“I should still walk Sister Yelei back. That way I can also tell Miss Yeye that she can come to me anytime if there’s a problem.”
He secretly used 【Holy Magic】 to calm his restlessness somewhat, yet the image of Yelei’s figure lingered in his mind, refusing to fade.
“Hehe… then I’ll trouble… Ang,” Yelei no longer refused.
“Since that’s the case… tomorrow’s lunch will need to be prepared carefully. After all, Ang… helped me so considerately without fearing trouble.”
Faang didn’t say anything more and simply nodded. Since the two households were neighbors, the rest of the walk took less than a minute.
Although Faang didn’t continue to support her, under the effect of the 【Enhancement Potion】 he also didn’t deliberately keep his distance.
When they arrived at Yelei’s doorstep, the door was left slightly ajar, not fully closed.
It seemed someone had been waiting at the entrance, because just as the two arrived, Yeye immediately came out—though something felt off.
She looked very downcast.
“Why did Sister and Mr. Faang come back so late…? Did something happen…?”
After supporting her sister, Yeye hesitated before asking, her tone carrying a hint of gloom and questioning.
Faang didn’t notice anything unusual. His body was still somewhat uncomfortable, so he simply thought Yeye was worried about her sister.
But faced with Yeye’s “did something happen,” he didn’t know how to answer.
“Sorry… Yeye, your sister felt a bit dizzy, so we came back a little slowly,” Yelei said with a smile.
“But I’m fine now. Knowing that Yeye has been worrying about her sister… I already feel much better…”
“…So that’s how it is?”
Yeye pressed her lips together and didn’t continue asking.
Then she looked at Faang and spoke, “Th-thank you for the trouble, Mr. Faang.”
“It was nothing at all. Besides, Sister Yelei felt unwell on our side,” Faang shook his head.
He truly felt he hadn’t done much. “However… since I’ve already walked you back, I’ll be leaving now. Sister Farin is still waiting for me at home.”
“Mr. Faang… would you like to sit at our place for a while before leaving? And I also want to know why my sister is like this,” Yeye said, her tone carrying a trace of expectation, and also… worry.
“Let’s leave it for today. It’s already late. If there’s any problem, you can call me anytime,” Faang still refused.
From the moment Yeye supported Yelei, he had noticed the curves on both of their chests exposed before him…
He had never realized before that Yeye’s figure was so full. If he stayed any longer, his mind would become even more unsettled.
“It’s fine… I should feel much better after sleeping. If there are any more abnormalities… I’ll trouble Ang again,” Yelei spoke at this time.
“Mm.”
Feeling uncomfortable in her heart after hearing Mr. Faang’s refusal, Yeye softly responded and didn’t continue speaking.
Faang also let out a sigh of relief at this moment.
“Alright, then I’ll head back first. You two should rest early.”
“I’ll rest soon… don’t worry, Ang. And… see you tomorrow. Tomorrow I’ll ask about… what Miss Ailin wants to entrust to me…”
At this moment, Yelei looked alluring and charming.
Faang, however, felt conflicted. He only left behind a single sentence, “Alright, see you tomorrow,” and then returned home.
After he left, Yeye first helped her sister inside and seated her on the simple sofa, then went back to lock the door securely.
After finishing all this, Yeye sat down beside her sister. Her sister now gave her a feeling very similar to when she had fainted from 【Mana Conflict】.
After hesitating for a while, she still chose to ask first.
“Sister… what’s your current condition like? What does it feel like?”
After Faang left, images of doing this and that with Ang still surfaced in Yelei’s mind.
Only after hearing Yeye’s worried questioning did she slightly come back to her senses, and she chose to tell the truth.
“Actually… even your sister doesn’t really know what’s going on. While drinking the thick soup… it triggered our race’s 【Succubus】 state… so there’s no need to worry too much about me.”
“【Succubus】 state… what is that?” Yeye froze for a moment; she had never heard her sister mention it before.
“It’s nothing much… it might be the culprit behind Yeye’s 【Mana Conflict】. It’s troublesome to explain… I’ll tell you later, okay?”
Yelei felt like she really needed to vent a bit.
“Okay.”
Yeye nodded dully.
“Oh right… it feels like Yeye’s mood is very low. What’s going on?”
As her sister, Yelei still spoke up.
“Are you afraid… that even if Ang brings it up, your sister will still not let Yeye become an adventurer?”
“Sister… a little, yes.”
Yeye spoke hesitantly.
“How did sister know?”
“Of course I would know… I’m your sister after all. But since Yeye wants to go, then go ahead… when the time comes I’ll help you ask Ang…”
Although Yelei felt a surge of desire in her lower abdomen, as an older sister she still wanted to say a bit more.
“And I’ll also accompany Yeye little by little…”
“Mm…”
Yeye nodded lightly.
“Alright… let’s end the sentimental talk here. I’ll go take a bath first. After bathing I should feel much better. Yeye doesn’t need to worry.”
Yelei stood up and walked unsteadily toward the bathroom.
With her enhanced physical strength, the low-level magic she used to heat enough water for the two of them to bathe was sufficient.
With her low amount of magic power, she also didn’t need to worry about 【Mana Conflict】. And in the bathroom, she could rely on the memory of embracing Faang to vent a few times… having suppressed her feelings for a long time, it was rare for her to have such an embarrassing urge.
Watching her sister’s back, Yeye softly called out, “Sister…”
“Hm? What is it?”
Yelei turned back and asked.
Yeye, who had been about to ask about the hugging incident, suddenly changed her mind.
“N-no… nothing. If sister feels uncomfortable in the bathroom… call me anytime. I’ll be in the living room.”
“Alright… Yeye has really grown up…”
Yelei said with satisfaction, resting one hand against her cheek.
Grown up… Yeye looked at her sister’s back, chewing over those words again and again in her heart, her feelings complicated.
