When Su Huaizhou saw the words ‘I like you’, she felt a rush of joy.

Although it was only a message conveyed through her phone, she recalled how Junior Brother had chickened out three times before and how she had also faltered so many times in the kitchen. She now understood how difficult it was to confess in person.

So even though he was confessing to her online, she felt super happy.

A wave of happiness instantly filled her chest.

It made her feel as though she was floating on soft, fluffy clouds, as if she were dreaming.

Junior Brother finally confessed!

Hooray!

This meant she wouldn’t have to confess herself!

At this moment, an inconcealable smile lit up Su Huaizhou’s face, her expression as radiant as summer flowers.

But the next second, her smile froze.

Just as she was about to type a reply to Junior Brother, a sudden realization hit her, and she felt a chill run down her spine.

Wait!

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!!!

This isn’t WeChat. It’s QQ!!!

Su Huaizhou was frightened. The color drained from her face, and her hands were trembling so much that she nearly dropped her phone.

It felt as if she had fallen from the clouds into a deep valley, instantly plunging into an icy coldness. Her limbs were freezing, and her body was stiff.

W-what’s going on?

Why is Junior Brother confessing on QQ?!

Although Congee Boss was Su Huaizhou herself, it was a little secret only she knew…

How did Junior Brother find out?

She was absolutely sure she hadn’t exposed her identity.

Su Huaizhou was flustered, feeling as though her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

If Junior Brother has figured out my identity as Congee Boss, th-then… wouldn’t all those times I personally taught him how to confess… be completely exposed?!

Ahhh!!!

No way!!!

Su Huaizhou looked terrified. Her fingers hovered over the screen uneasily, but she didn’t know how to reply.

What should I do, what should I do, what should I do???

How am I supposed to reply?

Could Junior Brother have made a mistake?

But what if it’s true?

Maybe I should just pretend I didn’t see anything?

After all, as long as I refuse to admit it, he can’t do anything about it.

But this is his confession…

I really want to say yes…

I’ve waited so long. How can I ignore it now that it’s finally here?

Though only a second or two had passed, to Su Huaizhou, it felt like seasons had gone by.

Various thoughts flashed through her mind. Before Junior Brother walked out of the kitchen, she had already come up with her response strategy.

[Congee Boss]:

[Congee Boss]: What are you doing?

In moments like this, she couldn’t panic. She had to act like a proper senior and imagine how a normal person would react after receiving a sudden confession from a junior brother.

A confused reply should be the standard response.

But after sending the message, Su Huaizhou still didn’t feel relieved.

She was still waiting for Junior Brother’s reaction.

Maybe it was just a misunderstanding?

She prayed in her heart.

Soon, a new message arrived on her phone.

[Peach Jam]: Oh, it’s nothing. I was just practicing the feeling of confessing with you.

[Peach Jam]: But, you know, when I’m not confessing to Senior Sister, it’s so much easier… It’s just really hard when I’m in front of her.

At this moment, Su Huaizhou’s tense body finally relaxed, and she heaved a long sigh of relief. So that’s what it was!

She was crying and laughing at the same time. She wanted to scold Junior Brother but didn’t know where to start.

He really scared her to death!

She had thought he had actually figured out her hidden identity.

She had been disguising herself very well.

It was practically flawless.

How could she have been discovered?

Hehe!

Annoying Junior Brother!

I almost slipped up.

Fortunately, your Senior Sister is more skillful, calm in the face of danger, and smart!

Su Huaizhou smirked, her confidence returning in full.

Luckily, she hadn’t given herself away just now. Otherwise, Junior Brother’s single practice confession would have blown her cover.

[Congee Boss]: … What’s the point of practicing with me?

[Congee Boss]: You’d be better off finding a photo of your senior sister and practicing with that.

[Peach Jam]: I think it was useful.

[Peach Jam]: I’m going to confess right now.

When Su Huaizhou saw this message, she instinctively thought she was seeing things.

She figured Junior Brother was probably bold online but timid in real life.

He was definitely just bluffing, and in the end, he’d chicken out again.

Hmph!

Do you think I’ll believe your nonsense?

You’ve already fooled me three times. If I believe you again, I’ll be a complete fool.

Su Huaizhou scoffed inwardly in disdain. But then she heard Junior Brother’s footsteps coming from the kitchen.

Although she was sure he didn’t dare to confess, her heart was still racing, a small part of her anticipating something.

Just as she put away her phone and planned to act as if nothing had happened, Junior Brother grabbed her wrist.

The next moment, Jiang Miao held her wrist and gently turned her around to face him.

“Junior Brother… w-what’s going on?” Su Huaizhou blinked, trying her best to make her expression natural as she raised her head and asked in a confused tone.

At this moment, the afternoon sun streamed into the living room from the balcony, shining light on Junior Brother’s well-defined face.

Su Huaizhou could feel the slight tremble in his hand, see the subtle movements of his lips, and notice his gaze fixed on her yet ready to flee at any moment. Is Junior Brother… really going to confess?

Her emotions fluctuated wildly, and her breathing became slightly erratic. She instinctively held Jiang Miao’s hand back and looked at his face nervously.

But she soon found that he didn’t seem all that nervous. There was a smile on his lips as he held her hand with one hand and touched her cheek with the other.

They’re so warm… Junior Brother’s hands are so big. Su Huaizhou’s cheeks flushed as she felt his large hand cover half of her face.

He gently caressed her.

His thumb slid softly across the skin under her eye.

Her heart trembled, and her lips parted slightly, but no words came out.

It felt as though the entire moment was under Junior Brother’s control.

He was clearly a little coward before… Why did he suddenly become so confident?

Looking at Junior Brother’s handsome face and remembering how he had startled her with his confession on QQ earlier, Su Huaizhou suddenly felt a bit weak.

“Senior Sister.” Jiang Miao gently rubbed the back of her hand with his left hand while his right hand rested against her fair and tender cheek.

“Yeah,” she responded softly. She pursed her lips and looked intently at him. She seemed to be able to hear her heart pounding wildly.

Feeling his large hand on her cheek, her face flushed. When she saw him open his mouth again, her breath caught in her throat, and she held her breath, waiting for his next words.

“I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?” Jiang Miao’s serious eyes locked onto Su Huaizhou’s, making it difficult for her to look away.

His gaze seemed to carry warmth, almost burning her as it met hers. Tears slowly welled up in her eyes.

She should be feeling overjoyed…

But after Junior Brother disappointed her three times yesterday, she felt a lingering sense of disbelief, as though she were in a dream.

Instead of immediately agreeing to his confession, Su Huaizhou instinctively asked, “Can you say that again?”

“Senior Sister, I like you.” Jiang Miao smiled and touched her other cheek with his other hand, cupping her flushed face with both hands. “I’ll say it as many times as you want.

“Senior Sister, I like you. I like you very, very much.”

“Don’t, don’t say it anymore…” Su Huaizhou was embarrassed by his strong attack. She quickly raised her hand to press it against his chest, satisfied and shy.

“So, Senior Sister, will you be my girlfriend?” Jiang Miao looked at the cute Senior Sister and shot a straight ball that easily pierced her heart.

Su Huaizhou looked up at Junior Brother with flushed cheeks. His large hands were gently cupping her face, leaving her with no escape, no way to avoid his gaze.

She parted her lips slightly, but her throat felt dry, and no sound came out for a while.

“Is it a no?” A trace of disappointment flickered across Jiang Miao’s face.

Su Huaizhou shook her head vigorously.

“Really? It’s a no?”

Idiot! She became anxious and hurriedly nodded.

But she realized it didn’t make sense. In her panic, she shook her head again.

Her adorably confused reaction made him laugh.

“I think I get it.” Jiang Miao lowered her hands, gently took Su Huaizhou’s small hands into his hands, and asked again in a different way, “Senior Sister, can I hug you? Not for material—a real hug.”

This time, Su Huaizhou nodded eagerly, her eyes brimming with emotions that were about to burst out.

Without hesitation, he opened his arms and pulled her into a tight embrace.

His hands found their way around her slender waist, and with just a gentle tug, she fell into his chest.

Her pleasant fragrance filled his senses as he held her delicate body, feeling a surge of contentment wash over him.

Although Senior Sister was still a little shy, she placed her hands on his chest instead of fully hugging him back.

But just this alone—the scent of her hair, the curve of her back, and the slenderness of her waist—was fatal enough.

A blush crept up on Jiang Miao’s face as he subtly adjusted his posture, leaning back slightly.

“Senior Sister,” he whispered softly, his lips brushing close to her ear, showing no intention of letting her go. “I like you.”

The warmth of his breath tickled her ear, sending a shiver down her spine, and her entire body softened.

Surrounded by Junior Brother’s presence, Su Huaizhou felt shy and comfortable. His gentle confession made her heart swell with joy.

Her hands resting on his chest slowly loosened and climbed up until they wrapped around his neck.

Perhaps because she had avoided meeting his direct gaze, she finally regained some courage.

Hugging his neck, she stood on her tiptoes and pressed her entire body against Jiang Miao.

He immediately felt Senior Sister’s soft chest against his, the thin fabric of her dress and short sleeves doing little to separate them.

His heart skipped a beat as his arms instinctively tightened around her waist. So soft…

The delicate sensation of her waist and… stirred something inside him.

The next moment, he felt her hot and moist breath brush against her ear.

“J-Junior Brother… I like you too… I like you so, so much…”

Even though Jiang Miao already knew Senior Sister’s feelings, hearing her confession with his own ears still filled him with joy and excitement.

One hand remained tightly hugging her slender waist, and the other hand eagerly moved up her back, gently caressed her tender neck, and slid to her long, silky hair.

He could never get enough of hugging her.

At this time, Su Huaizhou had exhausted all her courage. Shy, she buried her face into his chest, basking in the happiness of finally getting together with him. Stupid Junior Brother, you’re finally smart for once.

Fortunately, he didn’t keep her waiting too long.

Otherwise, if she really couldn’t help but confess first, she would have died from embarrassment.

Junior Brother smells so nice. His shoulders are so broad., and his chest is firm. He’s completely different from a girl.

And his hands aren’t honest and are holding me so tightly.

Su Huaizhou was embarrassed and happy. Her hands slid down from his neck and tightly wrapped around his waist as she pressed herself fully against him.

The next moment…

Junior Brother’s voice sounded softly in her ear again. “I like you.”

“Mm.” Su Huaizhou nodded gently. She felt she couldn’t get enough of his words, wanting him to say more.

“Congee Boss~” he said softly again.

“Yeah…” She instinctively nodded once more.

But the very next second…

Her body instantly stiffened.

It was as though lightning had struck her.
