But now, he definitely couldn't show any odd behavior, so he shook his head and said, "It's getting dark, why don't we call her and ask her to come back? If she runs into some trouble, it would be troublesome. You know, she's not from Lidu after all."

"No need to call, she's a grown-up now, and it's not the first or second time she came to Lidu to bother me. She doesn't get into trouble that easily. Besides, that brat not being around is such a rare opportunity, we can finally have some time for just us two. Don't you think so?"

As Qin Ruojing spoke, she suddenly grabbed Chu Ge's hand, with a gentleness that couldn't be described. However, when their hands touched, Chu Ge noticed that Qin Ruojing's hand was a bit clammy, clearly proving her inner nervousness at this moment.

Since Qin Ruojing said so, Chu Ge naturally had to cooperate well. He laughed and nodded, "Yeah, you've been busy, and ever since your sister came, our time together has indeed decreased."

While they were talking, Chu Ge was led by Qin Ruojing to sit on the sofa, and she said a bit aggrievedly, "Chu Ge, how did it go with your old friends this time? You didn't come home for a whole night and day. Did you meet some childhood sweetheart that has changed dramatically, and forgot about me?"

Chu Ge sighed inwardly, but on the surface, he smiled and shook his head, "What nonsense are you talking about? You're the only one in my heart. No matter when or where, you're the most important woman to me."

"Really?" Qin Ruojing gazed intently into Chu Ge's eyes, her face slightly flushed.

Chu Ge found it amusing in his heart, thinking that Qin Ruojing was pretty into her role, but on the surface, he nodded, "Of course it's true. Being with you is definitely a huge blessing for me. How could I ever do anything that would let you down."

Since he knew Qin Ruoying was observing secretly, Chu Ge naturally had to act more convincingly at this moment. As he spoke, he took hold of Qin Ruojing's hand again, and his expression and tone were indescribably serious and gentle.

Looking into his eyes, Qin Ruojing said, "Chu Ge, actually, after Xiao Ying and I had a fight that day, I seriously thought about it. The one who's truly blessed should be me. After all this time, I haven't fulfilled the duties of a girlfriend — haven't been with you... yet you've always been tolerant and caring towards me. If it were another guy, he probably couldn't bear it long ago."

Chu Ge grinned, "It's boring to talk about those things. Other guys are other guys; I am who I am. Otherwise, why would you have taken a liking to me?"

"Have... have you never been mad at me? Isn't it hard for you to hold back every night?"

Chu Ge let go of Qin Ruojing's hands, scratching his head, "Of course it's hard, but I've never been angry about it. After all, the most beautiful things should be saved for the most beautiful night."

"Chu Ge, you are so good to me; I'm really happy."

Qin Ruojing softly said, once again grabbing Chu Ge's recently released hands, her eyes misty with deep emotion. If they were truly a couple in love, whatever happened next would flow naturally.

However, for Chu Ge, this was just acting, and he definitely couldn't really take it seriously.

Yet when Qin Ruojing released her hands and Chu Ge thought the act should almost end, surprisingly, Qin Ruojing closed her eyes and slowly moved her lips towards him, inch by inch.

Seeing Qin Ruojing's face getting closer, Chu Ge was suddenly dumbfounded—what kind of situation is this? Do we have to act to this extent?

Hey, isn't this enough? Stop now, okay? Geez, she's not stopping? What is she trying to do?

When their faces were merely a few centimeters apart and Chu Ge was deeply hesitant about whether or not to let Qin Ruojing continue, a key turning in the lock sound startled them from the doorway.

As the sound occurred, "Qin Ruojing" suddenly burst into laughter, her eyes cunningly glancing towards the door.

Hearing the laughter, Chu Ge froze. That was distinctly Qin Ruoying's usual laugh. Looking again at the door, he suddenly realized.

The one who entered was actually Qin Ruojing—the real Qin Ruojing. Evidently, the one who had been whispering sweet words to him was Qin Ruoying.

So after all, Qin Ruoying was wearing Qin Ruojing's usual home clothes, styled her hair just like her sister's, mimicking her sister's gestures and tone, which made Chu Ge completely mistake the sister for the elder sister.

Back in Kyoto, Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying had pulled this stunt before, but at that time Qin Ruojing had a sprained foot, allowing Chu Ge to distinguish between the two sisters.

But this time, firstly because he didn't think in that direction at all, and secondly because the sisters were just too similar with no distinguishing features, he got thoroughly fooled.

If Chu Ge hadn't assumed Qin Ruoying was observing from hiding, his relationship with Qin Ruojing would surely have been exposed. It was a coincidence that covered it up, allowing him to pass by chance.

"What mischief did you do now? Laughing so exaggeratedly?"

Qin Ruojing walked in, seeing her sister clutching her stomach and laughing uncontrollably, she couldn't help but frown her delicate brows and ask.

"I didn't do anything bad. Can't I just laugh?"

Qin Ruoying finally managed to suppress her laughter, glanced at Chu Ge, and then said to her sister with an innocent face.

"What did you do?"

Qin Ruojing looked at Qin Ruoying suspiciously and suddenly noticed that her current hairstyle was exactly the same as her own, and she was wearing her usual pajamas. Instantly, she realized it and was startled; she quickly turned her gaze to Chu Ge.

"Chu Ge, did this girl just pretend to be me and deliberately mess with you?"

Chu Ge gave a wry smile and nodded helplessly on the sofa, "What else can I do? It's just like that."

Qin Ruoying nudged Chu Ge with her shoulder, "Brother-in-law, you're not being cool. This is supposed to be our secret. How could you tell my sister so quickly?"

Seeing Qin Ruoying's smiling face without any intention of questioning, Qin Ruojing finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although she didn't know how Chu Ge managed to get away with it, it was clear that Qin Ruoying did not expose their relationship.

"Qin! Ruo! Ying! Is this how you mess around?"

Feeling both relieved and lucky, Qin Ruojing entered the room, walked to the sofa opposite, and said righteously on the surface.

Qin Ruoying shrugged indifferently, "Come on, big sis, how am I messing around? Don't you think it's an interesting thing?"

Qin Ruojing was getting a headache and glared, "How is it interesting? It's more like trouble. If your brother-in-law mistakes you for me again, then what? Go downstairs and change your look right now!"

"If he makes a mistake, so what? It's no big deal,"

Qin Ruoying continued indifferently and suddenly changed the subject, "Unless... there's something wrong in the relationship between you and my brother-in-law, then you feel it's troublesome, right?"

That statement was spot on, and Qin Ruojing couldn't admit it, so she just rolled her eyes at her sister and said, "Your eyes are so sharp. If there was something between us, you would have noticed by now, wouldn't you?"

"Not necessarily; maybe I haven't noticed because your acting skills are so good? Anyway, I'm not changing my look. If you insist, it means you have a guilty conscience."

Qin Ruoying said confidently, then blinked at Chu Ge and smiled, "Brother-in-law, close your eyes, and open them when you hear a cough."

Qin Ruojing rubbed her forehead, "Qin Ruoying, what trick are you trying to play now?"

Qin Ruoying pretended not to hear her sister, patted Chu Ge on the shoulder, "Brother-in-law, quickly close your eyes."

Chu Ge looked helplessly at Qin Ruoying, then at Qin Ruojing, and finally closed his eyes.

"Brother-in-law, don't open them!"

Qin Ruoying reminded him again, then walked to Qin Ruojing's side in a few steps, giggled at her sister, then suddenly put on a straight face and coughed.

Upon hearing this signal, Chu Ge finally opened his eyes, and in his sight, the two women were equally young and beautiful, with the only difference being Qin Ruojing, who had just come back from outside, was wearing a slim-fitting professional suit, while Qin Ruoying was in her home pajamas.

"Brother-in-law, I know you can definitely tell who's who between us now, but imagine if we both wore the same clothes, could you still recognize us?"

Thinking of such a fun idea, Qin Ruoying couldn't keep a straight face. As soon as she started talking, she couldn't help but laugh.

Chu Ge chuckled bitterly inside, pondering that he must discuss strategies with Qin Ruojing when they're alone, but he maintained a smile on the outside, "Of course I can."

Qin Ruoying showed a clear disbelief and said, "Brother-in-law, I remember you said before that there's a magnetic field between people, and for those who have feelings for each other, this magnetic field is stronger. So even if my sister and I's acting is flawless, you would never fail to recognize my sister. That's the power of feelings, but didn't you just mistake me for my sister?"

Chu Ge was secretly taken aback. He didn't expect Qin Ruoying to have such a good memory. She could repeat word for word what he had said in Kyoto so long ago.

At that time, the reason Chu Ge could distinguish between the two sisters was because Qin Ruojing had a sprained foot, and he could identify them by looking at the ankle. He thought that after leaving Kyoto's Qin Family, the play between him and Qin Ruojing would be over, so he said such words.

Who would have thought that until now, he was still providing after-sales service and even got cornered by Qin Ruoying using his original words.

The same words, when heard by Qin Ruojing, gave her a headache as well. She couldn't help but blame Chu Ge in her heart. Why did he have to talk so big then? Now look, Qin Ruoying got hold of him.
