Regarding Those Matters of Me and My Little Sister

Chapter 3: For You



The 'superior' student and my roommates went to the all-nighter, and Li Xin went with the yellow-haired guy. All I wanted to do was to check up on Li Xin, and I was surprised that she was so close to the yellow-haired man now.

At first glance, the yellow-haired man did not look like a student, and was very much like a delinquent, intimidating enough to frighten a lot of people like me.

But I still chased after them, the motorcycle was driving slowly, it had turned the corner and disappeared, but I felt that I could catch up.

Then I rounded the corner and saw the motorcycle, parked at the curve.

I froze for a moment, why did it stop? Then I saw that there was a milk tea store around the corner, and there were a lot of students drinking milk tea inside.

A woman in her twenties was entertaining customers, and was very gentle. But I didn't see the yellow-haired man, nor did I see my sister.

I didn't have the courage to ask, I just peeked from outside, and less than a minute later, the yellow-haired man came outside, with a particularly sluggish expression, I guess he wasn't used to socializing.

He got on the motorcycle and left, I don't know where he was going. Li Xin has not yet shown up, I was happy that he left, after all, high school students like me are still intimidated by the young people of society.

Once he left I was quite relieved and continued to peek, and I discovered that the milk tea store had a private room, the door was closed. I think Li Xin might be in there…

I was thinking, and that gentle woman actually waved at me: " Student, want to drink milk tea?"

I was shocked because of her gentle voice and shook my head in a hurry. She looked at me suspiciously, I wouldn't dare to stick around and raised my legs to flee.

However the door opened, a girl wearing a small scarf came out, all clean, with a single ponytail and pale bangs, if it was not Li Xin, then who would it be?

I was somehow terrified, running away, the gentle woman seemed surprised, I do not know if Li Xin saw me, anyway I ran, and ran around the corner into the alley.

I went in and cursed myself in shame, you fucking come all this way to see your sister, then you go and hide?

But I didn't have the guts to see her again, I was afraid she would find me.

I squeezed my hands tightly and leaned against the wall for a moment, thinking, what should I do? I don’t want to see her, as it would only be more embarrassing to meet with her.

However, the yellow-haired man caught my interest, I want to know his relationship with Li Xin, I'm afraid Li Xin was being deceived.

A confused mind, and a fucking wimp.

This time it is also dark, the distant street lights are on, my roommate, they do not know where I went all night, I was a wreck.

The outcome was even more tragic, someone was coming to the entrance of the alley. I was startled again, and hurriedly crouched down, the intersection was very dim, I saw a blurry figure, but I could see that it was the gentle woman.

She seems to be emptying the garbage, as there's a garbage can here. I was really nervous, while squatting and smiled bitterly, but the woman was looking at me: “Student?"

I steadied myself and said what? She walked up to me: "You're not feeling well?"

In this world it is really rare to meet a kind person, I reluctantly said it's nothing, I needed to go. She spoke again, "Why did you run away when you saw my friend? Do you know her?"

So she wasn't a nice person, she was curious. I said no, she laughed teasingly: "Don't be shy, last year I saw someone like you come to drink milk tea, drink for a year, and didn’t say anything, you have a crush on her?"

I said no, why do you talk so much ah. She shrugged nonchalantly: "If you like her, confess to her, so that she can rejoice a little, I see her alone all day she is so pitiful."

I did not want to talk to her, but listening to her say that Li Xin was alone, my heart was puzzled, and I found this woman is very talkative ah.

I asked, "Isn't that yellow-haired guy her boyfriend?"

The gentle woman teased again: "It's your competitor, you're going to be late if you don't get going."

Listen to her saying that yellow-hair man is not Li Xin's boyfriend. I breathed a sigh of relief and said I really don't know Li Xin, and that I was leaving.

She died laughing: " How do you know the name Li Xin if you said you didn’t know her?"

I immediately got embarrassed, this woman is not gentle at all, she deliberately makes life difficult for me, but with no malice

I was considering if I should walk past her to leave, I decide to walk directly by her, she shook her head, muttered something about walking back, took two steps and suddenly ran, but also kicked the garbage bag. (TN: Might be confusing to understand but she basically just ran back to the milk cafe in a rush)

I was stunned, why was she suddenly in a hurry? She has a relationship with Li Xin, so I had to pay attention. So I turned around the corner and peeked over to the milk tea store.

What I saw made my heart freeze, at some point three girls came in, all dressed very trendy, and looked like city people.

They were laughing at the counter, and ordering at this and that, calling Li Xin slow and clumsy.

The gentle woman had gone over and said she would handle it, the three girls refused directly, and insisted that Li Xin handle it. Li Xin lowered her head, adjusting the milk tea, can not see their faces, but I feel that she is used to it.

I thought of what the ‘superior’ students said about a bitch bullying Li Xin, is it these three girls? They were obviously together, the one in the middle was probably the head, and the shorts were so short that they showed their underwear.

I gritted my teeth until it bled, the gentle woman was losing her smile, but the three girls didn't give a damn about her and taunted Li Xin together.

I took two steps closer and heard one of them laughing wickedly: "Li Xin ah, it is bad for you to wear school uniform to work, this is not even attractive, next time remember to change out of your school uniform."

These words are full of mockery, the three girls laughed at the same time, the middle one acted like a righteous angel: "Ahem, do not say that so much, everyone knows that she only has a school uniform, in fact, not wearing dresses is more attractive."

Now they burst out laughing, the milk tea store and a few customers, all watching in astonishment, there are two girls with their heads lowered that walked away, there are also boys showing a look of amusement.

The gentle woman seemed like she wanted to get angry, but she kept smiling. Li Xin still lowered her head and did not say anything, and soon gave the milk tea over.

The girl in the middle took a sip and spat it out directly: "Shit, it's so bad, how do you make it so shitty?"

Gentle woman smiled again, and the girl pushed back the milk tea: "You try a sip yourself, so tasteless you should sell shit instead!”

Li Xin stopped moving, the three girls all made her hurry up and drink. This humiliation, the disgrace is that people are able to see that they want my sister to eat spit.

My fists are clenched and drawing blood, I never thought my sister would be bullied so badly, this kind of thing must have happened much before.

The teeth marks on my arm seemed to be faintly aching. I looked at them through the street light and a lot of events came rushing back to me. I had made a mistake that year.

I was afraid to face my sister, out of some strange mentality. But now I gathered all my courage, inhaled vigorously, and ran in. (TN: Here we go, hopefully some redemption from MC.)

The gentle woman was the first to discover me and was very startled. Li Xin lowered her head without saying a word, she seemed to be waiting for the three girls to get bored and stop.

I couldn't afford to wait, the girl was still viciously forcing my sister to drink her milk tea, her voice stinging: " You won't drink? Shall I get a few people to come here to help you with your deal?"

Gentle woman clearly turned pale, Li Xin finally moved, she still did not look up, just reached for the milk tea.

Her hands are very small and white, I used to hold them when I was young, her little hands were always cold, and now? Is it still cold?

People already rushed to stop them, I was in a frenzied state, slapped the middle girl who was leading the bullying.

The slap was real, and she immediately shrieked, and the people in the store were all frozen. My sister also looked up, at that moment I panicked and turned around and ran.

I didn't see Li Xin's face, I'm sure she didn't recognize me, we've barely spent time together in the past few years, even if I were to look at her from behind I wouldn’t recognize her.

After I hit the girl I ran, the girl turned around and found me, angry and swearing, her bag was thrown after me: "I gonna fuck you up!"

All three of them chased me, I realized that my body was a little jittery after hitting someone, it was my first time hitting someone, and it was hitting a girl, a bitch in town.

The more I ran, the more I was afraid of being caught, and that bitch was definitely not to be messed with.

I hurriedly went in the alleyways, fortunately there are many alleyways, I went through several alleyways, I could no longer hear the voices behind me, they stopped coming after me

I do not dare to wander, trying the other direction to escape, I have to get out of here, that bitch is very dense, I only heard of her by the stories, and now I have met her, I need to keep away from her.

It was hard to get out of the alley, it was completely dark, there were street lights at intervals, it was very bright.

But I was lost, this place is really busy, the streets are full of people, and the roadside is full of stores.

I took a few breaths and thought I had to find my roommates, although they excluded me, I still wanted to be with them.

However it was impossible to do anything to locate them, and I walked a long way, all the way to the park and turned around, and finally stopped outside a store.

This is a clothing store, a girl's clothing store, the clothes are so beautiful.

I look at my own school uniform, in fact, I am the same as my sister, and do not have any good clothes, I am a male that lives in school so it doesn’t matter that much, but when she is out of school I still hope she can wear good-looking clothes.

I felt my pant's pocket, I brought all the money when I came, more than 100 yuan, which is my monthly allowance, I should be able to buy a few pieces of clothing. (TN: 100 yuan is about 15 USD, and clothes in China are typically cheap)

I went in my spirit steady, and it turned out to be really damn expensive, a dress is more than a hundred, and I felt really good, and I also compared the prices a few times, and I was very happy with one of them.

The owner looked at me strangely, I gritted my teeth and bought it, only twenty yuan left in my pocket. (TN: 3 USD)

Clothes have to have a pair of pants, bashfully, I can only go to the ground to find a stall, I found good pants, and clothes to go together.

The clothes store bags are beautiful, I have never seen such beautiful bags in town, they are just right for my sister's clothes and pants.

You see, I am still a very brave brother, but only if my sister is not in front of me.

There was no money left in my pocket, just four yuan. I waited until after nine o'clock to ask for directions. (TN: 60 cents in USD)

It took more than half an hour to walk back to the junior high school of Takasu High School, and then to the milk tea store.

This time I began to lose confidence again, carrying a beautiful bag and feeling very uncomfortable.

Then finally reached the corner, I took a deep breath ...... to peek.

I had to make sure my sister was off work and I gave the clothes to the gentle working there to pass it off to my sister.

Overall I was still excited, I fantasized about my sister in a beautiful dress, and that she would then forgive me and I would love to take care of her.

With my head in the air, the corners of my mouth are smiling, my eyes have not yet been drawn to the milk tea store, the motorcycle at the door has made me unable to move my eyes.

The yellow-haired man sitting on the motorcycle and trying to be handsome, Li Xin next to him, helplessly smiles: "The school is so close, you really do not need to take me."

I can only see the side of Li Xin's face here, there are not many street lights here, she looks like a genie hidden in the dusky night.

I think she is a genie, the yellow-haired man must also think she is a genie, because he is very affectionate: "That bitch might be waiting for you, I have to send you back to school in order to protect you, damn, I really want her dead!"

He said a lot of foul language, Li Xin seemed to sigh and did not say anything. Then she got on the motorcycle, yellow hair was guilty and close: "Let me call someone to kill her already, come on!”

Li Xin gently shook her head: "Alright, let's go."

The motorcycle started, and the light from the headlights shifted quickly from the road toward the corner, illuminating the darkness near me.

I clutched the pretty bag and retreated back into the alley. The motorcycle quickly passed and they were gone.

I just stood there in the alley and exhaled, the running had tired me out and I was nervous. Maybe I should be thankful that at least there was someone else who cared about my sister.

I looked down at the bag, it was beautiful. My eyes looked to the exit of the alley to the right, directly opposite a street lamp in the distance, the yellowing light cast from afar, unable to illuminate my face. And I looked deeper into the alley to the left, the long dark road, there is a little light at the end.

I grabbed the bag and released it, and repeated it several times like a demon, and finally held the beautiful bag and went deeper, let's go.

Translator Notes: Another one done! Hopefully in the next chapter he mans up and delivers the clothes in person!!
