Chapter 24: Top Supporter Sister?
In the airport’s open-air parking lot, the sunlight shone down on rows of neatly parked cars, the reflected glare slightly dazzling.
A young girl was standing somewhat nervously by a GTR.
The girl was Shen Yunchu. Today, she wore a simple and stylish coffee-colored wool coat, with a white turtleneck underneath, paired with a floral skirt, and clean, flat shoes on her feet, giving off a fresh and refined air.
Shen Yunchu tightly gripped a set of keys in her hand, occasionally glancing toward the parking lot entrance. Her gaze revealed a hint of nervousness, apprehension, and expectation.
When Ye Xiao had asked her to help with the airport pickup, Shen Yunchu had agreed without a second thought.
However, on the way to the airport, she started to feel a little regret.
When she and Ye Xiao were just regular close friends, Shen Yunchu could confidently face Ye Xiao’s family.
For instance, Ye Xiao’s mother, Liu Yun, would visit her youngest daughter three or four times a month.
So, Shen Yunchu was not unfamiliar with Liu Yun.
However, after her relationship with Ye Xiao had changed, Shen Yunchu hadn’t met any of Ye Xiao’s family members.
As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister is like a mother.
Today’s pick-up target was Ye Xiao’s sister, so by that concept, it felt almost like she was meeting Ye Xiao’s mother.
Rounding it up, it was practically like meeting the parents.
Thinking this, a blush spread across Shen Yunchu’s cheeks.
She could feel her face heating up at an alarming rate.
As time ticked by, Shen Yunchu’s mood grew more and more anxious.
Inside, she was deeply conflicted, both worried about flight delays and the trouble they might encounter on the way back, and uncertain about how to behave when she finally met Ye Xiao’s sister.
Yet, when she saw that familiar figure gradually growing larger in the distance, walking toward her, and when her gaze fell on the tall beauty beside Ye Xiao, Shen Yunchu’s breathing could not help but stagnate.
“Fishy Big Sis, let me introduce you. This is my college roommate and best friend. The two of us are renting a place together now.”
As she reached Shen Yunchu, Ye Xiao stepped forward quickly, grabbed her hand, and introduced her.
So it’s just that… Shen Yunchu felt a slight pang of bitterness, but there wasn’t really anything wrong with Ye Xiao’s introduction. After all, the other party was Ye Xiao’s biological sister.
Shen Yunchu tried to convince herself of this.
“This is my sister, Ye Youran!”
With Ye Xiao’s introduction, Ye Youran nodded at Shen Yunchu in acknowledgment.
“Oh, I originally thought the person coming to pick you up might be your boyfriend!”
Ye Youran said.
“Fishy Big Sister, I’ve told you I’d never date those inferior creatures like a boyfriend, why don’t you believe me?”
Ye Xiao sighed, looking a little helpless. This sister was way too unpredictable.
“Sister Yunchu, let’s hurry up and take Fishy Big Sister home. With all the travel back from overseas, a weakling like her must be worn out by now.”
“Mmm!”
Shen Yunchu nodded, raising her hand, and pressed the car keys in her hand.
As Ye Youran looked on with mild surprise, Shen Yunchu and Ye Xiao got into the car.
“Fishy Big Sister, look at you, acting like you’ve never seen the world—it’s just a GTR~”
Just a GTR. Ye Xiao’s familiar, arrogant tone and disregard for others were evident.
“Xiao Xiao, this GTR isn’t yours, is it?”
Once in the car, Ye Youran asked immediately.
“Well, it’s not mine yet, but Fishy Big Sis, I think we’ll have our own GTR very soon!”
“Let’s not even talk about whether we can afford it. Even if we could, Xiao Xiao, you don’t even have a Drivers’ License. Wouldn’t it just sit there and gather dust? Anyway, why would you want to buy a car?”
Seeing her sister’s confident look, Ye Youran shook her head disapprovingly.
Before getting into the car, she had taken a picture of this GTR with an image recognition app. This was the latest model, with the top configuration priced at 2.8 million yuan.
Ye Youran couldn’t believe her sister could come up with such a massive sum.
Even their parents, who ran a small business in Binhai City, didn’t have 2.8 million in available funds, let alone spend it on a flashy GTR.
But Ye Youran decided not to burst her sister’s “fantasy”. After all, as long as it wasn’t illegal or harmful, having a goal wasn’t a bad thing.
“Because, you see, when Fishy Big Sister Yunchu saw this GTR today, her eyes were sparkling in a way I’ve never seen before. Even if she worked in an office for a lifetime, she’d never be able to afford this car. Fishy Big Sis Yunchu may not be very ambitious, but she treats me really well~”
“Oh dear, dear, Fishy Big Sister Yunchu, why has your face turned so red all of a sudden? It really proves that a small fry is just a small fry. Even now, you’re as fragile as ever~”
Ye Xiao had actually said, right in front of her sister, that she wanted to buy a GTR just for her!
Shen Yunchu’s face started to heat up uncontrollably. If she weren’t driving, she would’ve already given Ye Xiao a big hug.
Just the thought of Ye Xiao wanting to buy a GTR because of how excited and thrilled she’d felt seeing one made Shen Yunchu feel incredibly touched.
It didn’t matter if they ended up getting one or not, the thought alone was enough to make her happy.
If Ye Youran weren’t there, Shen Yunchu might have pulled over to give Ye Xiao a big kiss.
Of course, Ye Xiao hadn’t said this to Ye Youran without reason. She was determined to get that GTR. Beautiful women and fast cars—wasn’t that one of life’s great pursuits?
Although Ye Xiao didn’t have strong feelings about it, as long as her loved ones liked it, she was happy.
However, for now, she didn’t have the means.
While at the airport, Ye Xiao had given it considerable thought.
Writing novels was currently the fastest way she could think of to make money.
But, to gain enough financial and social power to rival Gu Tingyuan and his Gu Corporation, using novels to earn her first bucket of gold was simply too slow.
What she really wanted was to make games. The games in this world were terrible!
“Actually, Fishy Big Sister, as things stand, I want to become a game developer. I have some great ideas. Want to join me and be my top supporter sister?”

Nasuverse? Or touhou? Maybe higurashi and umineko?

I hope Ye Xiao won’t break anyone’s heart.
