A 25-year-old elder sister most enjoys seeing an 18-year-old younger sister blush.

Shen Nian and Xia Yanchun sat close together at his home, discussing when they should go back.

They finally decided to head back home right after receiving their graduation certificates.

The college entrance exam results would be out on June 23rd, and it would be more convenient to communicate with their parents right beside them when filling out their college applications.

Although their parents' opinions might not necessarily be useful.

Shen Nian's parents were not intellectuals. On the contrary, Uncle Xia was a college student twenty years ago.

College students from that era were genuine intellectuals, and their degrees carried a lot of weight.

But that was twenty years ago. If Uncle Xia didn't pay much attention to the current social trends, he might not be able to offer useful advice either.

Shen Nian still hadn't figured out what major to apply for. He didn't have any particular interests and knew very few majors. If he had to name one he was relatively interested in, it would be game development.

"Have you decided what major to choose?" Shen Nian couldn't make up his mind, so he decided to just follow her lead.

Xia Yanchun leaned against Shen Nian and shook her head.

Those who like drawing could enter the animation industry as concept artists, those who like taking photos could go into photography and post-production to become directors, and those who like games could become programmers.

Xia Yanchun only knew how to study. When it came to a major she liked, she drew a complete blank.

Should she just follow the university's top majors and choose an engineering field like computer science, architecture, or materials science...

She really had no clue.

"It's fine, take your time to think about it," Shen Nian smiled. "I'll just choose whatever you choose."

"There's no need for that. You can choose a major you like. As long as we are in the same university, it's fine."

Xia Yanchun was genuinely afraid that Shen Nian would choose a major he wasn't interested in just because of her, and end up muddling through without learning anything.

There were many people like that. She had seen plenty of stories online about boys changing their college choices for the girls they liked, ending up in a second-tier university despite scoring over six hundred points. You could find a bunch of them with a quick search. People changed schools, and definitely even more changed majors.

"I can't make up my mind either," Shen Nian scratched his cheek. "How about we study medicine together?"

"No way."

"Become teachers?"

"No to that too, but it's worth considering. If we really don't know what to choose, being a university professor wouldn't be bad."

"Then let's go into civil engineering together and become the ultimate concrete pourers."

"Get out of here."

Hearing this, Xia Yanchun finally realized Shen Nian had been joking all along.

She thought Shen Nian would choose harder majors like materials or mechanical engineering. It turned out he was just as clueless as she was.

There was still plenty of time, so Xia Yanchun wasn't in a hurry to nail down her major. She shook her head and stopped thinking about it. She figured it was better to think about their travel plans.

Leaning against Shen Nian, she scrolled through Xiaohongshu, looking for travel-related posts to see if there were any good places for a summer trip.

Going to the beach was one option, but with a three-month vacation, she planned to go out for more than just two or three days. It would be best to drag their luggage around and travel to various places with Shen Nian, enjoying the mountains and rivers for half a month. Just thinking about it felt wonderful.

Although she also kind of wanted to bring Shi Yan along.

With both her boyfriend and her best friend by her side, Xia Yanchun couldn't even imagine how cozy that would be.

However, considering Shen Nian and Li Shiyan, Xia Yanchun dismissed the idea. If they went to the beach, they could go with Sister Shen Yue and Shi Yan as a group trip. As for the rest of the journey, just the two of them would be perfect.

"Besides the beach, is there anywhere else you want to go?" Xia Yanchun decided to consult Shen Nian for his opinion.

"What, is going to the beach not enough?"

"What do you mean? Do you only want to go to the beach once? We have such a long vacation, and we haven't had a proper break in three years."

"It's not that. It's mainly because I don't know what else is fun to do." Shen Nian stroked his chin. "How about we go mountain climbing?"

"Ugh, that's so tiring... But I've noted it down, consider it planned! Where else do you want to go?"

"I want to eat West Lake Vinegar Fish. I heard it tastes terrible."

"And you still want to eat it."

"It's my first time seeing a dish that even locals say is awful but is still super popular. Who wouldn't want to try that?"

"..."

Xia Yanchun felt Shen Nian was a bit eccentric. This guy definitely had some masochistic tendencies in him, wanting to eat whatever tasted bad.

Whatever, she would indulge him this once. Consider it planned.

After saving a bunch of travel guides and posts on places to avoid, Xia Yanchun decided to find some time to properly organize their travel itinerary.

She stayed at Shen Nian's house until the afternoon before heading back alone. With plenty of free time, she made a rare solo trip to the wet market, bought some meat and vegetables, and spent time bustling about in the kitchen, cooking for the first time in a long while.

However, she only cooked a single portion because she ran into Shen Nian at the elevator when she was going home; he had also come down to buy groceries.

Because Xia Yanchun hadn't invited him to go grocery shopping together, he viciously threatened to punch her into a cream puff.

Xia Yanchun wasn't scared at all. A mere Shen Nian was nothing to worry about.

At night, after taking a shower, Xia Yanchun happily went over to Shen Nian's house to watch a music variety show with Shen Yue.

The three of them sat together on the sofa, their feet resting on the coffee table. Life was very cozy.

"By the way, are you guys going to university in the capital?" Shen Yue suddenly asked.

"I don't want to go that far." Xia Yanchun blinked. "I'll just go to a local university."

"Me too."

"Heh, you two are inseparable now, aren't you?"

"Wh-what are you talking about!" Her small face gradually flushed pink as Xia Yanchun tugged at the hem of Shen Yue's shirt.

"Still playing dumb? Aren't you two already together?"

"...!" Xia Yanchun blinked, instantly falling into a state of unbearable shyness.

Shen Nian had told her earlier that Shen Yue knew about their relationship, but even with mental preparation, being confronted about it face-to-face still made her blush.

"Hehehe, weren't you two bickering every day before? How did you end up bickering your way into a relationship? Oh, you guys have such a good relationship. I really couldn't tell, Little Chun, that you actually like Shen Nian's type. Not bad taste." Shen Yue poked Xia Yanchun's cheek with her small hand. The twenty-five-year-old big sister loved watching the eighteen-year-old little sister get flustered.

Shen Yue's teasing tone almost made Xia Yanchun die of embarrassment on the spot. She stammered, too afraid to speak. She knew that at times like this, she just needed to play dumb, and Shen Yue would turn to question Shen Nian instead.

Getting no response, Shen Yue turned to Shen Nian, who was looking down at his phone next to them, and teased, "Hehehe, weren't you two bickering every day before? How did you end up bickering your way into a relationship? Oh, you guys have such a good relationship. Lao Di, I really couldn't tell that you actually like Little Chun's type. Good taste."

Shen Nian: "..."

This way of speaking and tone were exactly like a delinquent girl boss. Shen Nian seriously had to wonder if his older sister used to be one of those delinquent girls who cut holes in their school uniforms during middle and high school.

"It's called letting nature take its course, you understand? Stop muttering."

"Ooh, letting nature take its course, huh? Fine, fine. When you guys go out to play and run out of money, just ask your sister. Treat Little Chun to something nice. Your sister will cover all your dating expenses!"

"Well, what else is there to say then? I have a million-word story right here about childhood friends going from hating each other to falling in love. I'll tell it to you from beginning to end."

"Hahaha, you brat, you always get energetic when money is involved."

"Hehe, there's no story. I was just kidding."

"It's fine, I don't have much money either. I was just joking."

"...??"

Tricking her own brother?

When it came to being absolutely shameless, Shen Nian always had to concede defeat to Shen Yue.

No matter how bad Shen Nian could be, he only ever teased and scared Li Shiyan a little; he never taught anyone else to gang up and scare her. Shen Yue, however, was on a whole other level. She actually taught Xia Yanchun how to team up and boss Shen Nian around.
