Brother-in-law (Triple Update, Bonus Gift Chapter)

The enjoyable PE class quickly came to an end amidst laughter and the free-spirited shedding of sweat. On the playground, students lingered reluctantly, walking back to the classroom in small groups. Aside from two girls who were caught by the sharp-eyed PE teacher secretly cramming for studies, everyone else had a great time. As punishment, the two girls would spend the entirety of the next PE class under the watchful eyes of the class PE monitor—no chance for any last-minute studying. The entire sophomore Class 8 wholeheartedly supported this decision. Overachievers? Totally unacceptable.

During the break, the classroom buzzed with energy as students either shared fun moments from PE class or took the chance to relax.

"Gu Luo, it's okay..."

"Boys will be boys... it's totally understandable..."

Shen Yue, seeing Gu Luo beside her who had been silent for a long time, comforted him in a soft voice: "Really, there's nothing wrong with guys watching that kind of stuff."

"No need to feel awkward."

Because they had already shared their true feelings, she didn’t feel the slightest bit upset now.

She was just a little envious of the two girls in the video.

Their figures were amazing—slender waists, long, beautiful legs.

Gu Luo must really like black stockings and white stockings, right?

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have scrolled past two videos like that in a row.

Big data sure knows its stuff.

"Actually..." Hearing this, Gu Luo felt slightly less embarrassed. Just as he was about to try and explain himself, Shen Yue continued:

"But Gu Luo, it’s understandable that you like girls, just don’t ever..."

She paused, hesitating, her eyes filled with a hint of worry.

"......"

Gu Luo was once again rendered speechless.

Of course, he knew Shen Yue was referring to the white socks and bearded man meme.

But.

He only watched it because he found it funny! Just for the memes in the comments! That’s it!

That’s all!

Just as Gu Luo was mentally preparing his defense—

"Wow, what adorable girls! Are you freshmen?"

"And your hair—is that dyed? It looks amazing! Is that cold tea brown?"

Feng Youqing’s unmistakably excited voice rang out from the doorway, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.

Standing at the entrance were two incredibly cute girls, both sporting playful twin tails, radiating youthful sweetness.

The slightly shorter of the two was blushing, clutching a beautifully packaged box of cookies in her hands.

Her nervous, shy demeanor made it impossible not to feel protective of her.

Meanwhile, the other girl—a beauty with a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye—smiled warmly at Feng Youqing and said, "Hello, senior! My hair is naturally cold tea brown."

The two were none other than Gu Ximan and Lu Xuexue, here to deliver cookies.

"Ahhh! Freshman cuties confirmed!"

Feng Youqing’s eyes sparkled with excitement, as if she had stumbled upon treasure. She eagerly asked, "Can I touch your hair?"

"Of course!" Gu Ximan nodded with a smile.

Feng Youqing immediately reached out, gently running her fingers through Gu Ximan’s hair while marveling, "Wow, your hair is so silky smooth!"

"Hehe, my brother buys all my conditioner," Gu Ximan replied playfully, her tone full of pride and affection for her older brother.

Tsundere? Not even a little bit right now.

Hearing this, Feng Youqing’s curiosity was piqued. "Ohhh! So you’re here to see your brother? Who’s your brother?"

Gu Ximan immediately pointed a delicate finger toward the back of the classroom, near the window.

In an instant, all eyes turned like spotlights toward Gu Luo, who was currently facepalming in resignation.

Great. He could already predict the nicknames he’d be stuck with from now on.

"Your brother is Gu Luo?!"

Feng Youqing was even more thrilled now. As a full-blown aesthetics enthusiast, both handsome guys and cute girls were her weaknesses.

The Gu Luo siblings were just too perfect for her tastes.

Gulp.

"Gu Luo, how could you hide such an adorable little sister from us? That’s just cruel!" Feng Youqing teased loudly before turning to Lu Xuexue and asking, "And this little cutie here is...?"

"She’s also my brother’s sister. We’re here to bring Gu Luo some cookies," Gu Ximan answered, her eyes subtly scanning the classroom.

She hadn’t forgotten her mission—to find out who the senior was that Lu Xuexue liked.

But after a quick sweep, aside from her own annoying older brother standing out like a sore thumb with his looks, the other guys were just... meh.

A couple could be considered decent-looking, but compared to Gu Luo? They paled in comparison.

Truly, no competition, no heartbreak.

So, who exactly was the senior Xuexue liked?

"Both sisters?! Come on in!" Feng Youqing beamed, happily taking both girls by their delicate wrists.

Then, without hesitation, she led them straight toward Gu Luo.

"Brother Gu, I made these cookies myself this morning. I hope you'll try them if you can." After placing the cookie box on the table, Lu Xuexue immediately hid behind Gu Ximan, too shy to even look at Gu Luo.

Gu Luo straightened slightly in his seat, eyeing the exquisitely packaged box on the table with a grateful smile. "Thank you, Xuexue. I'll finish every last one."

Internally, he marveled at how easily the girl blushed.

Even back in middle school, she'd call out "Brother Gu" and then dart away every time they met.

Today, she'd braved the crowd to deliver cookies—no doubt egged on by Gu Ximan's mischief.

At this thought, Gu Luo turned to Gu Ximan, who was busy scanning the room, and asked, "Ximan, what brings you here all of a sudden?"

Hearing this, Gu Ximan snapped her attention back, thinking to herself how hard this senior had been to track down. With a playful grin, she replied, "Brother, freshman year is so boring. Can Xuexue and I come hang out with you often from now on?"

"Uh... well," Gu Luo hesitated, at a loss for words.

He was already high-profile enough at school. If he started parading around with two adorable little sisters in tow, flaunting them everywhere, he'd surely incur the wrath of every other guy—landing himself at the top of the "This Bastard Must Die" rankings.

"Of course you can!" Feng Youqing cut in before Gu Luo could respond.

"Absolutely!" a male voice shouted in agreement.

"No problem—I'm the class monitor, and I approve," another chimed in.

"Same here! Gu Luo, don't you dare refuse!" one guy half-joked, his tone dripping with envy.

"Approved! Gu Luo's sisters are now the whole Class 8's sisters!"

"Yeah! You girls should visit often!"

"......"

The classroom erupted in cheers and laughter, the atmosphere electric.

Seriously, just looking at those two cute girls was a feast for the eyes.

And since they were Gu Luo's sisters, there was zero risk of competition.

Like, come on—no matter how charming Gu Luo was, he wouldn't dare make a move on his own sisters, right?

Amid the chorus of approvals, only Situ Wenyao remained slumped over his desk, trembling slightly, lost in his own euphoric fantasy world.

Bliss... pure bliss...

Heavenly... absolutely heavenly!

This was a whole new level of satisfaction.

New positions unlocked!

Watching this, Gu Luo's lip twitched in exasperation, and he could only sigh in resignation. "Fine. But text me before you come."

"Got it!" Gu Ximan beamed, then turned her attention to Shen Yue, who was seated beside Gu Luo. With polite grace, she said,

"Senior, thank you for looking after my brother all this time."

"N-no, not at all..." Shen Yue waved her hands hastily, cheeks tinged pink as she murmured, "It's Gu Luo who's always been taking care of me."

And so, Gu Ximan made her rounds, chatting amiably with everyone in the vicinity. After successfully cementing her presence, she finally left, satisfied, dragging the still-flustered Lu Xuexue along.

Yet the moment the two girls stepped out of the classroom—

The room exploded into chaos.

"Brother-in-law!"

"Gu Luo, from now on, you're my blood brother!"

"Heavenly... haha... so good..." Situ Wenyao remained lost in his private ecstasy.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law! I'm your long-lost brother-in-law!"

"Gu Luo, starting today, we're sworn brothers. Your sisters are now my sisters!"

"......"
