Chapter 101: This Is What a Good Younger Sister Should Do!
(1/3)
The sound of "Secret Flower Name" flowed from Cheng Yao’s fingers, carrying a poignant melancholy. In truth, the sheet music was not too challenging; the first set of the domestic music association’s seventh-level piano exam is in C major and A minor, with the C major arpeggio being G B D F, G B D F… Four octaves, right hand fingering…
Cheng Cheng’s eyes, already not large, widened in disbelief.
Lu Mengyao was equally surprised; she recalled Cheng Yao mentioning he was only at piano level three…
This liar!
Ha, claiming he wanted her to tutor Cheng Cheng was just a pretext to have her stay here, making things more convenient for himself.
At that thought, Lu Mengyao’s cheeks flushed hotly.
Cheng Yao felt wronged; he had only recently acquired advanced piano skills from Zhang Ya.
This technique was top-notch within the ten piano grades, and even at the professional level it held merit—though among the lesser ranks.
After finishing the piece, Cheng Yao asked, “Are your things packed?”
“Yes, all done.”
Tomorrow they were going to Disneyland, so Cheng Cheng was naturally thrilled. She smiled and asked, “Teacher Lu, will you come with us?”
“Me?”
Lu Mengyao recognized the trap; Cheng Yao’s little sister engaged in daily battles of wits with her, but was still too inexperienced.
She smiled and patted the girl’s head, “What fun would I have tagging along with your family? See you next week, bye-bye.”
“Brother, you should walk Teacher Lu out.”
“Me?”
Cheng Yao nodded, “Alright, let’s go.”
“No need, really.”
“It’s necessary…”
In the elevator, Lu Mengyao smoothed her hair and hesitated, “Your sister…”
“What about her?”
“Nothing, just drop me here. Come by after she’s asleep.”
“Alright, go ahead.”
“Mua~”
Lu Mengyao headed toward Unit Twelve.
Back home, Cheng Yao opened his computer and started gaming. He had little to pack—just a bag, his ID, and phone.
The itinerary in the city was simple: Disneyland on Saturday.
On Sunday, he was to attend a salon with Zheng Yuechan. Truthfully, he wasn’t particularly interested, but having promised, he couldn’t back out.
However, tomorrow he needed to buy a watch.
After all, for such an important occasion, it was best to have one. His clothes and trousers weren’t cheap, even if it didn’t show outwardly.
This week had passed peacefully, but also full…
Especially with Lu Mengyao and Lin Ketong; “full” was truly an understatement.

Lu Mengyao appeared on the platform as the embodiment of youthful allure, gaining eighty thousand new fans in a week, bringing her total close to two million. What did that mean?
Pure, beautiful looks, a style combining innocence and desire—truly irresistible.
Liu Hanyue had slightly fewer fans; after all, cuteness paled compared to sensuality, mainly because she didn’t show her face. If she did, her numbers would rise.
The company was now on track, though the five million registered capital was still a bit tight; signing fees for influencers alone amounted to several million.
They still needed to buy equipment, pay salaries, run events, and more…
Once the company grew, the investment would be substantial, so Cheng Yao had instructed Wang Yiming to keep contracts strictly procedural, with no sentimentality.
Wang Yiming gladly agreed.
He even set an example, with his own contract meticulously planned.
In high spirits, Cheng Yao opened a can of cat food for Maine late at night, gently closed the door, and left Building Eleven, heading for Lu Mengyao’s place.
He entered the code; inside, Lu Mengyao sat on the leather sofa, cats gathered around her.
She had already washed up and changed into a thin camisole dress…
A young girl seduces,
A young woman ensnares the soul,
Without a doubt!
Lu Mengyao now could be considered half a young woman.
Cheng Yao’s expression was odd—how was he any different from a rogue? But in this era, what once was considered taboo now sparked excitement; people seemed to crave it.
Even rogues had gained popularity.
Cheng Yao glanced at the identical layout, then at the window, “Isn’t there a piano missing?”
“The piano…”
“I’ll call Lisa and have her bring it over.”
“Alright, whatever you say…” Lu Mengyao smiled, drawing close, as Cheng Yao wrapped his arm around her waist and led her toward the room.
Since Cheng Yao wouldn’t return until Monday, Lu Mengyao was exceptionally clingy.
…

Early the next morning, Cheng Yao rose early.
He bought breakfast at the entrance to the community and unexpectedly encountered a familiar figure.
“Uh…hello…” Jiang Yuexi saw Cheng Yao and greeted him shyly with a smile.
The young beauty wore a chicken K shirt, white socks adorned with rabbit patterns—the rabbits clean and just the right size. These days, young girls’ fashion was truly captivating.
Back in his high school days, girls who weren’t pretty looked like country bumpkins in their uniforms, and boys like labor camp inmates, not allowed to grow their hair out.
Cheng Yao took out a large fried dough stick, “Want some?”
“I already ate, thank you.”
“What are you doing here?” Cheng Yao noticed Jiang Yuexi had a backpack, and had an inkling.
“I made plans with Cheng Cheng to go to Disneyland.”
“I see…”
Cheng Cheng hadn’t mentioned it to him. Cheng Yao munched his fried dough stick, chatting as he walked, discussing school matters.

Jiang Yuexi spoke cautiously, “By the way, there’s a parent-teacher conference next week.”
“Alright.”
Cheng Yao had always ignored parent meetings; some people spoke without thinking, acting self-important.
Gifts given privately were one thing,
But forming factions to give them—ridiculous.
He’d never indulge such bad habits.
Jiang Yuexi’s expression was peculiar; she looked up, “My dad mentioned you.”
“What did he say about me?”
“He said you’re very brave. I don’t really understand what he meant…”
“…”
Cheng Yao understood; he’d confronted someone in the parent group last time. “Tell your dad, I’ve always been brave.”
“Hmph-hmph.” Jiang Yuexi giggled.
Upstairs, Cheng Cheng had already washed up. Jiang Yuexi smiled, “Met your brother downstairs buying breakfast. You didn’t tell him?”
“I forgot.”
Cheng Cheng poked her head out, “Brother, you should thank me for getting you this opportunity. Later, invite your girlfriend out; I’ll stay with Jiang Yuexi, you stay with her. I didn’t tell her your girlfriend’s coming too.”
“Getting clever?”
“I’ve always been this smart!”
Cheng Yao thought, nice, this is my good sister!
Jiang Yuexi was curious; what would Cheng Cheng’s brother’s girlfriend look like? She must be even prettier~~
After last night’s toil, Cheng Yao ate heartily.
His appetite had grown; breakfast was substantial, fried dough sticks with grains, plus a basket of soup dumplings—delicious.
“Did you buy the tickets? Told your family?”
“Bought them.” Jiang Yuexi nodded gently, “My parents know.”
“Good.”
Ready to depart on time; it would be a two-hour drive to the city, arriving by midday.
Cheng Yao had purchased Disneyland passes, so there was no need to queue for attractions.
That was why he was so relaxed, unconcerned about time—money solves everything.
