They All Want to Be My Female Lead chapter 51

51 Cousin Madly Assisting Elder Sister

“Cousin, where are we going to play next?”

“Let’s go eat something first, rest a bit, and then we’ll see about the fireworks in the evening.”

“Great, let’s go to ‘Eight Immortals Residence’ then. It’s a tall building.”

“What does Elder Sister Ruyu say?”

“Up to you guys~”

“Then let’s go…”

Having finished the role-playing at the Dragon Night Arena, what followed was a brief Lantern Festival activity. Although the script didn’t have specific descriptions, Yan Zhen still had to diligently complete this small plot.

The three of them went to the top floor of the Eight Immortals Residence, got the best private room, ordered a tableful of dishes, and started eating leisurely.

Yan Meng’er pulled the seats of the three of them very close, the chairs almost joining into a long bench.

She sat on Yan Zhen’s right side. One moment she would pick food for Yan Zhen, the next she would feed him, then she wanted him to feed her, and even licked clean the rice grains and oil stains on his mouth.

Yan Zhen was helpless. He could only try his best to satisfy her requests within the limits of not violating his character setting.

This made Yan Meng’er extremely happy. She was almost sticking to Yan Zhen’s body, her full breasts like ripe fruits rubbing against his arm inadvertently.

Seeing her cousin’s active advances, Yan Ruyu felt a bit embarrassed. But when Yan Zhen responded, she was very envious of that girl, thinking if she did the same, would she also be able to–

But Yan Ruyu only thought about it. She didn’t have the courage to do what Yan Meng’er did at all. Only when Yan Meng’er gave her a hint did Yan Ruyu suddenly say, “Yan Zhen, thank you for this morning.”

As she spoke, she picked up a large piece of meat and put it in Yan Zhen’s bowl, quickly withdrawing her chopsticks.

“This is a thank-you gift.”

Yan Zhen was a bit surprised, but still smiled slightly, “No need to be so polite. I was also doing it to uphold the City Lord Mansion’s reputation.”

Yan Ruyu’s mood instantly improved. A faint smile also appeared on the corner of her mouth. There was only one thought in her mind: He smiled at me…

Seeing her discouraged appearance, Yan Meng’er secretly rolled her eyes, thinking that her elder sister was really too useless. Her combat power wasn’t even five. How could she be her teammate?

Her eyes were quick and her hands were fast. She immediately picked the meat out of Yan Zhen’s bowl and stuffed it into her own mouth.

“I’ll eat this piece of meat. Elder Sister, pick another piece for Cousin Yan Zhen. Nom nom~”

“Meng’er!”

Yan Ruyu glared at her cousin in displeasure. Yan Meng’er had a silly smile on her face, but her eyes were desperately hinting: Feed him, feed him!

Yan Ruyu, who had originally wanted to reprimand her cousin, immediately understood her intention. Her heartbeat suddenly sped up. It took a while before she plucked up the courage, picked up her chopsticks, picked up another piece of meat, and passed it to Yan Zhen’s mouth with flushed cheeks.

“Eat, eat it.”

Yan Zhen was greatly surprised, suspecting whether Yan Ruyu was drunk. Otherwise, how could she feed him?

“I’ll do it myself.”

Yan Zhen politely refused. Yan Ruyu’s heart became anxious. She wanted to be fierce to him like usual, but before she could speak, she was glared at by Yan Meng’er. She hurriedly changed her words, “You quickly eat it directly, otherwise it will be snatched by Meng’er again.”

Yan Zhen glanced at Yan Meng’er. The latter blinked her limpid beautiful eyes and revealed a mischievous grin, as if saying “Meng’er is a vegetable-stealing little thief~”.

After a brief hesitation, Yan Zhen still took a bite of the meat Yan Ruyu was holding and quickly ate it.

After all, they were clansmen living under the same roof. They weren’t that distant. Occasionally making some intimate little gestures wouldn’t go against the protagonist’s character setting.

Yan Ruyu stared blankly at the side of Yan Zhen’s face as he chewed the meat with big bites. Her heart was filled with a strange sense of happiness, wanting to continue feeding him more.

No wonder Meng’er kept feeding and feeding, not getting tired of it at all. It was really so delightful.

“Elder Sister, Meng’er also wants you to feed me~”

Hearing Yan Meng’er suddenly acting coquettishly towards her, Yan Ruyu blinked. She casually picked up a fish slice that her cousin loved to eat, reached over Yan Zhen, and stuffed it into her mouth.

“Had enough?”

“Elder Sister is so nice~ Meng’er will also feed Elder Sister in return.”

Yan Ruyu raised her eyebrows, about to refuse. Suddenly, she saw Yan Meng’er hinting with her eyes again. In a daze, she ate the fish belly fed by her cousin and heard her say in a sweet voice, “Cousin Yan Zhen, Elder Sister just fed you meat. As a courtesy, you should also feed her back once, right?”

Eh? Yan Ruyu’s heart sped up again with these words. Her delicate jade face turned even redder. She nervously, shyly, yet expectantly looked at Yan Zhen.

Yan Zhen nodded very readily. He picked a large shrimp, peeled it, dipped it in sauce, and brought it to Yan Ruyu’s face, saying indifferently, “Here, courtesy in return.”

Looking at the fresh, plump shrimp meat and the fair, slender fingers in front of her, Yan Ruyu swallowed her saliva, not knowing which one she was craving for.

She wanted to eat, but felt it was too embarrassing.

While hesitating, she saw Yan Meng’er desperately signaling to her with her eyes, as if loudly cursing: Hurry up and eat, stupid elder sister!

Yan Ruyu bit her lip, closed her eyes, opened her red lips and bit forward, but unexpectedly bit Yan Zhen’s fingers as well. The latter quickly withdrew his hand in pain, looking at Yan Ruyu with some fear.

–Could this be her retaliation?

“My fingers are not edible.”

Yan Ruyu covered her small mouth with both hands, chewing like a hamster. Her cheeks were flushed red. Her eyes were innocent, as if apologizing and saying “I didn’t do it on purpose”.

Seeing this, Yan Meng’er finally smiled with relief. Although her elder sister’s combat power was only 5 now, she still had a lot of potential to be developed.

The meal lasted from dusk until nightfall. Fireworks occasionally rose into the sky, blooming splendidly in the dark night.

The three of them moved their chairs to the window, sipping warm yellow wine while admiring the fireworks and overlooking the streets.

Swimming dragons, flower lanterns, vendors, pedestrians… The lights of thousands of households illuminated the entire city. As far as the eye could see, it was all bustling and prosperous.

“Cousin, let’s go down and play too~”

“There are too many people. I don’t want to squeeze.”

“Oh come on, let’s go~ Elder Sister, you persuade Cousin too.”

“It’s only once a year. Just take a walk.”

“…Alright then.”

“Yay~”

The three of them left the restaurant and walked to the bustling street.

Yan Meng’er took Yan Zhen’s hand and let Yan Ruyu hold Yan Zhen’s other hand, saying it was to “prevent getting lost”.

Holding hands? This was too high-level for Yan Ruyu. She shrank back again, “I’ll just hold your hand, Meng’er.”

Yan Meng’er really wanted to give her useless elder sister a big mallet. “No way, Elder Sister. I have to hold Cousin’s hand with one hand and hold things with the other. I don’t have an extra hand to hold you.”

Yan Ruyu was at a loss for words. After a long time, she convinced herself and grabbed Yan Zhen’s wrist with one hand, lowering her head and not speaking with flushed cheeks.

She used a bit too much force unintentionally. Yan Zhen felt a bit of pain, thinking that this woman was indeed going to retaliate!

In order to avoid generating extra plot, he endured it and pretended nothing was wrong.

The three of them walked hand in hand, admiring the lanterns, guessing riddles, chasing swimming dragons, teasing dancing lions… laughing heartily.

Until it was almost midnight and the Lantern Festival was about to end, a grand fireworks display was simultaneously launched in various parts of the city.

Their hands still not released, the three of them stood by the riverbank, looking up.

With the bang bang bang of explosions in their ears and the colorful, beautiful fireworks reflected in their eyes round after round, their joyful, lively mood also gradually calmed down.

“Cousin.”

“Hmm?”

“Smooch~”

“…”

The sneak attack was successful. Yan Meng’er grinned and was overjoyed. Then she winked secretly at Yan Ruyu standing on Yan Zhen’s other side.

Meng’er took the lead. Elder Sister, you have to work hard too~

Yan Ruyu: “/(//o/ω/o//)/”.
