The Buggiest System 150 Secret Revealed!

"So... Big sis, why are you disguised?" Her curiosity was to the max, wondering why such a pretty girl would put on makeup to dampen her own appearance.

Lin Guiying was stumped. Not one person before this little girl had questioned her disguised appearance, and as such she had no idea how to explain it.

"Er, it's, uh... Wait!"

She recalled the rules set by her manager. No one in her school should know of her disguise, else she needed to transfer immediately.

However, this little girl looked like she was in elementary, no way was she a student of her high school.

'That means... I should just tell her, right?'

Seeing the big sis contemplating in front of her made Zhou Zhenya a little impatient. 'If it's a secret, then she should just say so! I won't pry anymore if it is. Well, in the first place, her being embarra.s.sed when I pointed it out makes it obvious it's supposed to be a secret...'

Just as she was about to talk, Lin Guiying interrupted her train of thoughts.

"Okay, okay. I've decided, I'm gonna tell you."

Zhou Zhenya's impatience disappeared that instant. Her eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation once more.

"Well, I'm pretty popular here and there." Lin Guiying gave a vague answer.

Zhou Zhenya was not satisfied. "So, a celebrity then?"

Biting her lip, Lin Guiying gave a reluctant answer. "...Yes."

The little girl's eyes widened. "Which one?"

Lin Guiying hesitated for a moment. Even though it seemed like she found a loophole and was technically allowed to disclose her ident.i.ty to Zhou Zhenya, she knew that if Shao Lingxin found out, she would still be reprimanded...

'...Ah, to h.e.l.l with it!'

She glanced at the door, making sure it was tightly shut. "Don't tell your brother, okay?"

Zhou Zhenya nodded fiercely. If her brother wasn't allowed to know about it, then it must be a dark secret! A secret between girls!

Finally finding her resolve, Lin Guiying took a deep breath. She inched her face closer to Zhou Zhenya's ear. "My real name is... Lin Guiying."

.....

In the living room.

Zhou Lei stared at Jiang Zi Yun. He couldn't take her eyes off her, his whole body frozen in place.

"Leilei..." Jiang Zi Yun filled up with embarra.s.sment when she noticed Zhou Lei ogling- ahem, observing her.

She worked hard to suppress turning her head away. "Lei? Are you there? Earth, earth to Zhou Lei."

Shaking his head, Zhou Lei snapped out of his daze and cleared his throat. "Ah, Zi Yun... So, my sister gave you a makeover, huh."

"Yeah, she's pretty good..."

Silence followed once more.

Both of them gulped. They weren't comfortable with this sort of awkwardness around them.

To be honest, even Zhou Lei was shocked that he was dumbfounded at her appearance. Normally, he would be unfazed, considering that both his sister and his mother were world-ending beauties now. Well, he most likely felt no s.e.xual attraction because of the fact that they were direct relatives, and it would be weird...

However, even when Wen Hui, his teacher, was given a makeover by Zhou Zhenya, he didn't feel this unconscious infatuation.

The most probable explanation was that... he had some remnant feelings towards Jiang Zi Yun in the first place.

Zhou Lei looked down the floor, avoiding Jiang Zi Yun's gaze. He needed to calm down first...

Suddenly, a thud sound came from Zhou Zhenya's room, startling them both.

"What, what happened..." Zhou Lei rushed towards the room, a little happy that he got out of that situation.

"Hmm, hehehe." Jiang Zi Yun giggled. Seeing his red face after such a long time made her feel some sort of relief.

.....

"Y, you're Lin Guiying? THE Lin Guiying?" Zhou Zhenya couldn't hold back her smile.

"Shhh! Don't say it so loudly! No one else can know!" Lin Guiying was worried.

Zhou Zhenya had made such a loud sound when she fell over, it would only be matter of time till Zhou Lei was outside the door.

As expected, Zhou Lei opened the door to see his sister weirdly grinning while lying on the floor.

Lin Guiying turned her head at lightning speed. "L, Lei! Um, nothing happened..."

"It's fine, as long as no one is hurt."

Zhou Lei let out a sigh of relief. A particularly long one, at that.

Jiang Zi Yun also walked over slowly, appearing behind Zhou Lei. "What happened here..."

At that moment, Lin Guiying and Jiang Zi Yun's eyes met. Their sight suddenly turned sharp.

The atmosphere became heavy, congested by the tension the two girls emitted. When their gazes crossed paths, they immediately considered the other an enemy.

"...Lei, who is this?" Lin Guiying was the first to talk. She switched her target to Zhou Lei.

Jiang Zi Yun also looked at him, indicating that she, too, was "curious" about the ident.i.ty of the girl in front of him.

Zhou Lei felt like he had been wronged...

'Why does it seem like both of you are angry at me?'

'What even is this world...?'
