The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 942 - 24: Don’t Trouble Your Future Brother-in-Law
Li Siru had just finished showering and was about to sleep when she heard a knock on the door, and her heart skipped a beat. Who else could be looking for her at this hour?
She went over to open the door and poked her head out. Seeing it was Li Mengru, she let out a sigh of relief, "Sister, why aren’t you asleep yet?"
"I want to sleep with you tonight, is that okay?" Li Mengru asked, "It’s been many years since we’ve slept together as sisters, I really miss it."
"Sister, I’m a restless sleeper, aren’t you not used to it?" Li Siru said awkwardly. In the past, when she slept with her sister, her sister would lie down and sleep soundly, waking up in the same position, while she would be all over the place, moving and kicking about, making it hard for her sister to sleep.
"Anyway, I can’t sleep, maybe now that you’re older, you’re not as fidgety." Li Mengru laughed and walked straight into the room.
Li Siru closed the door and said, "I’ve indeed gotten a lot better, but I still can’t guarantee I won’t keep you awake."
"No worries, I can’t sleep anyway!" Li Mengru took off her outer coat, and Li Siru realized she was indeed only wearing her pajamas.
The two sisters snuggled under the covers, and Li Siru said, "Sister, shall I turn off the lights?"
"Sure, go ahead."
Li Siru then turned off the lights and tucked herself in. The person beside her lay still, and Li Siru dared not move recklessly, obediently lying in a proper posture, there was some distance between them, and Li Siru just felt it was strange.
It wasn’t like she was feeling distant from her sister; it had just been so many years since they’d been this close, suddenly lying quietly side by side made her uncertain whether she should say a few words.
It was already so late, they might as well sleep!
As she was pondering, Li Mengru suddenly spoke: "Lu Beiyao already told me about you working at YT International Hotel." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Ah?
That unreliable guy Lu Beiyao!
"That’s good, it’s better than grandpa discovering you working at a bar."
"He told you about that too?!" Li Siru almost sat up, but eventually just turned over to face Li Mengru.
Li Mengru also turned to watch her, in the pitch-black night, they could only see each other’s outlines.
"If he hadn’t told me, you wouldn’t have told your sister, right? Sisi, sister doesn’t want in the future for there to be things she hears from others, even if that person is your future brother-in-law." Li Mengru said softly, "I don’t want, as our cousin said, for us to grow apart."
"That’s not it!" Li Siru explained in a small voice, "I was just afraid you’d worry! Besides, if you knew before that I was working at a bar, you definitely wouldn’t let me continue. Then I’d have to find another job, which definitely wouldn’t pay as well as the bar at night. I’m not like you, sister, who can use the family credit card freely or join the family business to work."
She spoke with a sense of dejection, "If sister knew, you would definitely stop me, but I don’t want to lose this job, I don’t want to put sister in a difficult position."
Li Mengru reached out to hold her hand, "I understand what you mean! Working at YT International Hotel is good, it’s arranged by your future brother-in-law, and it’s a decent job, I’ll tell grandpa, and naturally, he won’t say anything against it. But, remember to tell sister if you encounter any issues, anything at YT, talk to sister, whether it’s something that bothers you or something you can’t solve yourself, as long as sister can manage it, she will definitely help you."
"Okay, okay!" Li Siru held her back, "I understand, sister always helps me, it’s just I’m really not any kind of socialite or debutante, I’m afraid of dragging sister down with whatever I do. In the future, I’ll tell you everything."
"That’s more like it!"
