Chapter 140 - My Sister (2/2)

“She’s my sister!”

“I—I see.” Cheng Shuanglin shook her head. “To think both children in your family were so brilliant.

Next, Cheng Shuanglin explained what she had seen with a serious look. She already felt that Su Ping wasn’t as calm as he appeared to be.

“…Her opponent couldn’t get through her defense, so he ordered his pet to use a ‘Spiritual Impalement’ skill, which knocked Miss Su out.”

Su Ping’s expression froze out of too much shock.

His “generous gift” was meant to a.s.sist Su Lingyue. But it caused the opposite! Without the Aquatic Blessing, Su Lingyue would have lost the match earlier without receiving all the extra damage.

A doctor showed up from the door next to them and spoke to Cheng Shuanglin, “Miss Su is awake, and there isn’t anything we can’t handle. Rest at ease, Director Cheng.” Cheng Shuanglin breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the doctor. So did Su Ping.

“… She may go home. But please make sure she doesn’t get affected by any spirit-related shocks in the near future.” “Of course, of course…” Cheng Shuanglin quickly nodded.

When the doctor went away, Su Ping immediately entered the unit room and saw his sister resting peacefully, while subconsciously stroking the fur of her Phantom Flame Beast.

“Oh, it’s you…” She saw Su Ping and blushed due to both rage and embarra.s.sment. “What do you want?”

Well, at least her head is totally fine. Su Ping thought, before speaking, “I’m just checking out your… Coal Ball.”

“She’s s...o...b..ll!” Su Lingyue retorted.

Su Ping was glad that his sister still had the strength to argue with him.

“Miss Cheng, I’ll leave her in your care for now. Can you make sure she doesn’t run off?”.

Cheng Shuanglin looked surprised by that. Are these two always like this?

Su Lingyue tossed a pillow at Su Ping after hearing those words. Though the pillow almost hit Cheng Shuanglin instead, as Su Ping had already left.

“Ah…! Professor, I didn’t mean it… That guy was spouting nonsense.”

Cheng Shuanglin smiled back at her. “Are you feeling OK? Well, the doctor said you should be fine. I still want to know how you feel.” “There’s nothing, really. Just a bit wobbly…”

“Your brother is a professor, huh? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“I didn’t mean to hide it, professor. You just saw what he’s like. I don’t want to call that a.s.s**le a brother.”

Cheng Shuanglin frowned, for she just noticed something more complicated buried deep down inside Su Ping’s personality just then.

That careless att.i.tude was a facade.

“He cares about you. See, he came to check on your health.”

Su Lingyue wasn’t convinced, for she thought that was only an act of kindness to comfort her.

“Um, professor? How is the contest going? Did Ye Hao’s match end yet?” “Oh, I can hear it from the crowd. He must still be fighting. Though I can’t tell you about the match. You know, I can’t leave your side.”

Su Lingyue quickly sat up. “Let’s hurry there then! Maybe we can still watch the game. I want to watch it.”

Cheng Shuanglin chose to let her since the doctor had already allowed her to leave the bed as long as she didn’t do anything too straining.

With Cheng Shuanglin supporting Su Lingyue with an arm, they both headed outside.
