The Pig Stealing the Cabbage

Avia was stammering now.

She had originally intended to secretly curry favor with Selina, but before she could even start, she was already found out.

Now, she felt utterly mortified, as if her illicit affair had been exposed.

“Misunderstanding? Does Student Avia think my mother would deceive me?”

“No, that’s not what I mean at all, I just wanted to say…”

Avia still wanted to explain, but Philicia gave her no chance.

“What more is there to say? You don’t think that just because you tricked my sister, you can trick me, do you? Selina is young, and she might easily be swayed by your sweet talk, but I…”

Perhaps it was due to the oddball that emerged from the Disciplinary Department under her student council, but Philicia never believed that girls were any safer than boys when it came to relationships.

Or rather, based on her own experience, in some situations, girls were even more dangerous than boys.

At least men approaching women would instinctively be wary, but girls wouldn’t be so.

Some girls with ulterior motives would exploit this to achieve their goals.

“So, what Student Philicia means is that I’m not allowed to associate with Selina?”

Having her words interrupted twice in a row, Avia felt a bit resentful.

She had indeed received Philicia’s kindness, but this didn’t mean she had to abandon her right to pursue happiness because of it. Repaying kindness and pursuing happiness were not contradictory.

“I just want to know, during this period of interaction, did you actually go through with it?”

Perhaps Philicia had always wanted to ask this question, but had waited until now, when the time was ripe, for them to speak frankly.

Then, there was no need to hide some more subtle topics.

Avia vaguely felt a sense of awkwardness and guilt in her heart.

The girl’s lips, her emerald eyes, stared fixedly at Avia.

Avia’s cheeks also flushed slightly, she didn’t know when.

Due to the generally pale skin of vampires, Avia’s slight blush was keenly caught by Philicia. Instantly, as an older sister, her expression changed dramatically.

“You two didn’t actually…”

“Don’t get the wrong idea! It’s not what you think at all!”

Seeing that if she didn’t explain, the misunderstanding would deepen, Avia was forced to blush and vehemently defend herself.

“Then why are you blushing?”

“Because of shame!”

Avia said helplessly.

Even though she tried her best to suppress that emotion in her heart, her pounding heart continuously flooded her brain with that feeling.

To be honest, it had indeed been almost a day and a half since she last saw Selina since that incident.

Without Selina by her side, the blood in her body became quite restless.

‘Speaking of which, how long had it been since she last fed since her last blood intake?’

It seemed only a day and a half, but why did she feel that bloodthirsty heat again whenever she thought of Avia’s appearance?

Seeing that Avia’s eyes didn’t seem to be lying, Philicia breathed a slight sigh of relief, though the seriousness in her tone did not diminish.

“Then what exactly did you two do? If you were just interacting as classmates, there wouldn’t be any shame, would there?”

When questioned about such intimate matters by her beloved’s older sister, Avia felt her mood and state were incredibly delicate, a feeling of shame intertwined with pleasure.

Philicia’s questioning was like a key. The process of questioning was like shaking a lock to open a door.

When her door was opened, it was as if a key had been inserted into a lock to open the door to her memories.

With her questioning, those past memories surfaced in her mind, word by word.

Emotion stimulated her nerves and brought with it the shame of having her secrets pried into.

“That is to say… I just drank a little blood.”

Recalling what happened the night before last, Avia’s delicate voice was hesitant.

After the fierce battle that night, due to expending too much magic, her newly stabilized bloodline plunged into turmoil again.

She had originally intended to grit her teeth and endure it with willpower, but unexpectedly, Selina, seeing her in such a state, only hesitated for a moment, and then…

The burning sensation on her face grew more severe. Her blood felt as if it was boiling.

Before her eyes, the girl’s shy side profile slowly pulled open her collar, revealing half of her smooth, jade-like beautiful shoulder.

“If you’re uncomfortable, just drink a little. Thank you for today. Don’t force yourself.”

The shy, short words became the most heartfelt love confession in the dark space where she awaited rescue.

From the corner of her eye, the girl’s flustered gaze and the creased corner of her skirt, caused by rubbing her fingers, were a true reflection of the girl’s inner state.

All in all, after that incident the night before last, Avia had truly recognized her feelings.

“Directly mouth-to-mouth?!”

Although it was confirmed that they hadn’t reached that final step, Philicia’s eyes still showed unconcealed shock upon hearing the words “drank blood.”

“Let it be known, she offered it willingly. I didn’t force her.”

Perhaps to avoid being misunderstood again, Avia wisely chose to preemptively cover her bases this time.

Upon hearing that her own sister had willingly offered blood, Philicia, who had been about to open her mouth to scold, frowned as if she had swallowed a fly.

She simply couldn’t understand how her little darling, who had been meticulously raised as a precious noble from birth, could have been “arched” by the pig next door in just a few days.

The crucial point was that this “pig” was one she had personally aided not long ago.

Looking at Avia’s face now, Philicia felt a sense of regret, as if she had shot herself in the foot.

“Through the student council’s internal self-investigation, I already know Selina’s disguised identity in the academy. I had imagined many things about my sister’s life in the academy, but I never expected that in less than a month, you two would already develop to this extent…”

Philicia spoke slowly, her eyes filled with resentment.

“And this time, I even personally sent a letter of invitation to Student Selina on the list, but to my surprise, she actually refused…”

“You know, at home, my sister has never refused my requests. But now, after less than a month outside, she’s already starting to be disobedient. Student Avia, do you have any idea about leading my sister astray?”

A sense of pressure suddenly weighed on Avia’s shoulders. At this moment, Avia felt immense stress.

This was not Philicia’s usual state. The Philicia before her was no longer just the student council president; she had transformed into a ruthless sister-complex machine!

“Um, let me explain…”

Avia spoke weakly. But as she uttered the words, even she herself didn’t know what else there was to explain.

It was indeed her suggestion to take Selina to the auction. And she did indeed drink the blood.

Looking back, she did seem a bit like a pig arching a cabbage.

But the truth was, she hadn’t even started arching yet!

She had just been preparing to implement her plan among the surrounding people, and she was already exposed.

Avia now felt an inexplicable sense of powerlessness, unable to explain herself.
