Time hurriedly arrived at the weekend.
On Saturday morning, as usual, Ling Ling was forcibly awakened by Lin Jiu’s icy little hand.
Ling Ling had been dreaming of eating a giant xiaolongbao, but when she woke up, she found nothing in front of her…
However, what surprised Ling Ling was why she had had such a dream.
After all, her favorite foods were sweets or junk food like fried chicken.
Could it be because of Lady Ye’s…
Thinking that, Ling Ling shook her head vigorously.
She was a proper person, not that repressed.
When she woke up, the only thing that met her eyes was Lin Jiu’s little face, seemingly anticipating something.
Seeing Ling Ling still shaking her head, Lin Jiu asked curiously, “What are you thinking about, sister?”
Ling Ling quickly put away those improper thoughts in her mind and returned to her usual demeanor.
And Ling Shi in her mind was also teasing her.
‘I don’t think Lord Contractor can be a proper person. Writing in that little notebook, and then…’
Ling Ling naturally had no mood to pay attention to this noisy one today.
After all, she was going to the aquarium with Lin Jiu today. She couldn’t ruin a good day by arguing with this guy.
“Nothing… Let’s go have breakfast.”
“Okay.”
After washing up, Ling Ling came to the table and ate the exquisite breakfast prepared by Lin Jiu.
Every time she thought about being able to eat the lavish meals prepared by her little sister every day, a sense of happiness welled up in Ling Ling’s heart.
She wondered who would be lucky enough to marry Xiao Jiu in the future…
Still munching on a slice of bread, Ling Ling immediately banished that thought from her mind.
Without her permission, she would never agree to any relationship of her sister.
It wasn’t that she had the same strong possessiveness toward Xiao Jiu as Xiao Jiu had toward her.
But somehow, she felt she simply couldn’t live without her, couldn’t live alone…
At that moment, she decided to keep Xiao Jiu by her side forever.
Even if others called her selfish or controlling.
Anyway, that was that.
Meanwhile, Lin Jiu, who was eating, suddenly sensed a gaze full of strong possessiveness.
When she looked up, she found that gaze came from Ling Ling.
And then she felt happy from the bottom of her heart.
After so long, was Ling Ling finally starting to have that kind of thought about her?
This also made Lin Jiu more convinced: how could those wild women possibly outplay her?
After all, advantage was on her side.
And “a water front moon gets the moonlight first.”
Just like that, with both harboring their own little thoughts, breakfast ended.
After sitting around for a while, the two changed into their everyday clothes and went out.
This time, Ling Ling rarely did not wear her hoodie and shorts set. Instead, she wore a black-pink gothic dress that Lin Jiu had personally picked for her not long ago, paired with black tights and standard black leather shoes.
Seeing this outfit, Ling Ling somehow thought of the thunderbolt-style girls from her past life on the internet.
But this type of attire was not popular in this world, so it was still rare.
Meanwhile, Lin Jiu mainly wore a normal British-style outfit.
Thus, the two girls, both dressed up beautifully, walked out of the apartment and slowly headed toward the orbital train station.
Along the way, Lin Jiu held Ling Ling’s arm with a smile on her face.
To onlookers, these two very pretty girls walking so intimately must have looked like a loving couple.
Soon, the two had boarded the urban orbital train and arrived at the entrance of the aquarium recommended by Chiyotsuki.
The entrance of the aquarium was a huge glass dome designed as an arch.
Through the dome, many schools of fish swimming could be seen.
Fortunately, they came early today, so the line at the ticket booth was not very long.
Soon, they had bought two tickets and stepped into this world of water together.
The inside of the aquarium was dim, with only the eerie blue light coming from the tanks.
Suddenly, a school of sardines swam across the dome above their heads.
Lin Jiu walked beside Ling Ling, and their hands unconsciously intertwined.
They slowly walked through the corridor and saw a group of sea turtles swimming leisurely.
Then they watched a school of clownfish swim by.
Finally, they came to a jellyfish wall.
Behind the huge glass wall were countless semi-transparent jellyfish swimming in groups.
Among them were a few very conspicuous jellyfish.
Unlike ordinary jellyfish, their edges emitted a faint blue glow, looking especially splendid in the dark environment reminiscent of the deep sea.
Seeing such a beautiful sight, Ling Ling inwardly marveled at nature’s craftsmanship.
Of course, she didn’t forget the main task.
She took out her phone and opened the camera.
She took a few photos of these gorgeous jellyfish.
However, just as she finished taking pictures, she suddenly noticed a gaze staring at her.
She turned around to look, but couldn’t see who was staring at her.
Lin Jiu, who was lying against the glass wall and focusing on the jellyfish, saw her sister looking around and wondering what she was looking at, and felt puzzled.
“Sister, what’s wrong?”
“…Hm, nothing.”
Ling Ling didn’t lie.
While looking around, she activated her supernatural ability detection and found no abnormal ability signals nearby.
And her intuition was very sharp.
If the other party hadn’t deliberately used abilities to hide themselves, theoretically she should have been able to detect the source of the gaze.
Maybe she was just being paranoid…
Before she could finish thinking, Lin Jiu had already raised her phone, leaned close to her, and taken a selfie.
But because she took it too hastily, the result was not good.
Lin Jiu looked a bit glum at the blurry photo.
Seeing Lin Jiu pouting and looking unhappy, Ling Ling’s mouth slightly curved upward by a few pixels.
She reached out, took Lin Jiu’s phone, adjusted the angle so that both faces were in the same frame, and said, “Take another one.”
She slowly pressed the shutter.
The image froze at the moment the two stood in front of the jellyfish wall.
Although Ling Ling still had that expressionless face, if one looked closely, they could still see the slight upward curve of her mouth.
Lin Jiu had a face full of happy smiles.
However, after taking the photo and returning the phone to Lin Jiu, Ling Ling sensed that gaze again.
Only this time, the gaze did not suddenly disappear as before.
Instead, it seemed deliberately hostile, letting her know of its presence.
After returning the phone to Lin Jiu, Ling Ling acted.
She conveniently made an excuse to go to the restroom and began to search for the source of that gaze.
She kept walking in the direction of that gaze.
When she got closer, she saw a very unfamiliar pair of golden eyes.
Unlike Chiyotsuki’s golden vertical pupils, the other’s golden pupils had reptilian-like eye features.
