We can never be sisters.

Bedtime stories…

Pei Shishi watched in a daze as Pei Ge tilted her head upward. The memories she had gradually forgotten suddenly surfaced in her mind.

'Cousin, you've read this story to me before! It's not nice; it's not nice!

'Cousin, your reading is so monotonous and emotionless. Let me read it for you!

'Cousin, was my reading good?

'How about we do this: You will read on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and I will read on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. As for Sundays… we can just read together!'

…

It seems… we were indeed close in the past. I really doted on Pei Ge before and treated her as my younger sister, but…

'Ge Ge, your cousin must be plotting something against you for her to suddenly treat you so well!'

'Yes! She couldn't be bothered with you before. Why is she suddenly treating you this well just because your dad passed away? She must be up to something!'
