The Buggiest System V1 134 My Life Is Becoming Like A Harem Protagonist's

Wait, no... It was more like she couldn't really remember who that was...

"Bro, I still don't know who she is." Zhou Zhenya shook her head.

Zhou Lei sighed, tapping his sister's small head softly.

He bent his knees, bringing himself down to his sister's height. "You were still 5 or 6 years old then, I don't expect you to remember everything. But what you need to know is that this girl right here is my friend, and you should treat her nicely."

Seeing Zhou Lei lecture his sister, Jiang Zi Yun was in disbelief. Now that she looked closely, even Little Ya turned into a beauty! Just what happened to these two in the 5 years she was gone?

Zhou Zhenya nodded, taking in her brother's words. She glanced at the filthy beg- well, her brother's friend.

"So... what will you do now?" Zhou Lei stood back up and pushed his sister towards Jiang Zi Yun.

Zhou Zhenya saw that Jiang Zi Yun still had that scary expression on her face, which made her stutter. Nevertheless, she needed to do this! "I- I'm sorry... for, uh... shouting at you."

The apology seemingly reached Jiang Zi Yun, as her gaze softened. She reciprocated the little girl's apology. "I'm sorry for dirtying the floor as well."

Delight filled Zhou Lei seeing the two girls apologize to each other. He smiled satisfiedly with his arms crossed, watching the two from the side.

A short moment of silence ensued, until Zhou Lei spoke up.

"Now that this matter is settled... Who will use the bathroom first?" He pointed out the princ.i.p.al problem at hand.

"No need to choose, we'll take a bath together!" Zhou Zhenya insisted. Her impression of her brother's friend improved when the latter had apologized to her.

The young and impressionable Zhou Zhenya would, of course, forgive easily.

On the other hand, Jiang Zi Yun was startled. 'Why did Little Ya suggest something like this?'

She wanted to refuse, but she saw the earnest expression on Zhou Zhenya's eyes. Instead of speaking up, she chose to stay silent.

"Ah, Zhenya, Zi Yun said she won't take a shower, she was just going to change her clothes." Zhou Lei noticed that Jiang Zi Yun wasn't speaking, so he interjected himself.

Zhou Zhenya pursed her lips. She scanned Jiang Zi Yun's whole body, and she grinned. "She's already wet anyway, it won't be a big deal."

"Zhenya..."

Jiang Zi Yun was uncomfortable with taking a shower in this mew environment, not to mention with someone she hadn't seen in half a decade. However, what made her more uncomfortable was the fact that the two siblings fought over her own decision.

Hence, she decided to interrupt them. "Leilei, I'm gonna take a shower. Don't worry."

"Okay, fine." Zhou Lei couldn't do anything about it. It was her who said that she wouldn't take a shower, so now that she insisted on doing so, he had no right to stop her.

Zhou Zhenya's eyes lit up, excitedly pulling Jiang Zi Yun inside the bathroom. This startled the latter, who started to regret her decision...

.....

After a while, the bathroom door opened.

Zhou Lei, who put down his bag and resigned to his fate of being late, raised his head to look. "Are you two finished already?"

Out came Zhou Zhenya, who was already wearing the clothes she brought inside the bathroom beforehand. She had an expression full of disbelief as she walked out the bathroom.

"Hmm? Zhenya, what's wrong?"

With her wet hair covered by a white towel, Zhou Zhenya didn't have to worry about water dripping on the floor. She walked towards her brother listlessly, muttering to herself a single word over and over again. "Pretty... pretty... pretty..."

"Pretty? What do you mean pretty?"

Zhou Zhenya snapped out of her daze when she heard her brother's concerned voice. "Bro, you didn't tell me..."

"What? What didn't I tell you?" Zhou Lei scratched his head in total bafflement. He had no idea what his little sister was talking about!

"You didn't tell me... that she was really pretty!" Zhou Zhenya emphasized on one word, and one word only: pretty.

"P- pretty? Uh, what's the matter with that?"

"You could've at least warned me so that I could've gotten ready!" Zhou Zhenya pouted, her cheek puffed on one side. She crossed her arms.

'Ah, she's so cute!' Zhou Lei resisted the desire to pat his sister's head, but he was quickly losing willpower...

While this was happening, Jiang Zi Yun finished showering thoroughly. After was.h.i.+ng herself, her skin glistened with a soft white glow.

Her unscrupulous hair turned smooth, flowing down from the top of her head. Her face, which was previously covered with dirt, revealed its true beauty.

She shook her head lightly, slightly shedding the thin coat of liquid on her hair.

Looking around the bathroom, she realized that there was no towel left inside.

"Leilei..."

Her fleeting voice pa.s.sed by the ears of Zhou Lei, ringing inside his head.

The argument between him and his little sister was disrupted by the serene voice that seemed to come from the heavens.

Zhou Zhenya zipped her mouth and sat on the couch indignantly. She watched her brother walking towards the source of the voice, antic.i.p.ating the moment when he would get shocked. 'From the looks of it, even he hasn't seen her true beauty...'

"Hmm, what is it?" Zhou Lei responded, standing outside of the closed door.

"Can you get me a towel...?" The wall separating Jiang Zi Yun and Zhou Lei didn't hinder the calmness of her voice at all.

"Sure, be right back."

To be perfectly honest, Zhou Lei was kind of excited to see Jiang Zi Yun all clean. After all, the last time he had seen her was a few years ago. Needless to say, some change should have occurred on her figure.

However, he didn't think that it would affect him that much. The last time he had seen her, she was already amidst the ranks of the most beautiful girls he had seen, maybe even at the top! Well, that was, naturally, before Lin Guiying debuted...

If some change happened, her current beauty wouldn't be affected by that much.

As he grabbed a towel from his bedroom, he suddenly realized something: 'This towel... I use it every other day, and now, she's going to rub it all over her...? Wouldn't that be inappropriate?'

Conflicted over the situation, Zhou Lei spent a lot more time than he intended inside his bedroom. In the end, he decided that he would give this towel to her.

They had shared various stuff back then, what would be the difference if he did it again today?

He knocked on the bathroom door. While waiting for it to open, he lied against the door itself, intending to stand up straight after just a split second.

What he didn't expect was that Jiang Zi Yun would respond so quickly...

She opened the door, but as Zhou Lei was lying against the door, his whole body weight pushed it wide open.

Jiang Zi Yun was startled as a figure entered the bathroom as fast as a jet...
