Even If She Was a Bad Woman, She Wanted Them All (NP Yuri ABO Main Attack) - Episode 41: Sisters Who Fought and Stayed Distant, the Gradual Growth of a Sickly Sister

Episode 41: Sisters Who Fought and Stayed Distant, the Gradual Growth of a Sickly Sister 

Sure enough… waiting for that person to take the first step was impossible, wasn’t it? 

After all, Qiao Jinyan still only saw her as a sister up to now. 

Qiao Zhinian stood by the window. Her eyes darkly watched Qiao Jinyan downstairs. Her sister was “talking” with their omega mother. 

She saw the intimate act of wiping her face. 

The girl’s hand unconsciously gripped the curtain tightly. Her mood was sinking to the bottom. 

During the weekend, Second Treasure didn’t review for any so-called exams either. 

All day long, Qiao Zhinian didn’t know what Qiao Jinyan was busy with in the yard. 

She was so easy to please. So why did her sister’s eyes never hold her? 

She just wanted to try changing her approach. She threw a tantrum. But she didn’t expect it to backfire. 

It pushed the alpha even further away from her. 

“*Cough… cough*…” 

Qiao Zhinian covered her lips. 

These past few days, her heavy worries made her already fragile omega body weaken again. 

Even today, standing by the window for a bit longer caused her body to “protest.” 

The omega clutched her chest. Which heaved unevenly under intense coughing. Her profile looked even paler under the sunlight. 

“Miss, it’s time to take your medicine.” 

A knock sounded. And the nanny caring for Qiao Zhinian entered the room with a bowl of foul-smelling herbal medicine. 

“Leave it there, I’ll drink it later. Go out.” 

Another new medicine, a hint of disgust flashed in the omega’s eyes. 

“But… Madam said these past few days…” 

“I want to be alone, Auntie.” 

Qiao Zhinian coldly interrupted the woman’s words. 

The omega’s usually soft and sweet voice now seemed shrouded in an unshakable gloom. It sounded surprisingly icy at that moment. 

The girl’s petite and frail body leaned against the windowsill. Her entire silhouette looked especially heartbreaking. 

At that moment, Qiao Zhinian seemed like a completely different person in anyone’s eyes. 

The nanny hesitated behind her. She knew full well that Qiao Zhinian was in a bad mood. 

This state had lasted for days. 

So the doctor prescribed new medicine again. 

Such situations had happened before. 

“Okay… alright, Miss… I’ll leave first.” 

In this atmosphere, the woman didn’t dare urge the girl to drink the medicine before leaving. Though she usually did under Madam’s orders. 

She could only set the bowl down, close the door, and leave. 

When the woman closed the door and quietly waited outside to retrieve the bowl, a loud crash of something heavy falling came from inside the room moments later. 

The woman hurriedly entered the room. She checked the source of the noise. 

“Miss! Are you okay?” 

“I’m fine… *cough… cough*…” 

The delicate girl seemed to have fallen to the floor. Her clean white dress was now stained with hard-to-wash dirt. 

The medicine bowl that fell from a height still rolled on the ground. 

Qiao Zhinian sat on the floor in a mess. Her pale profile flushed unnaturally from the intense coughing. 

“I’m fine… I just didn’t hold it steady.

Sorry, Auntie, I spilled all the medicine…

Can you not tell Mom and the others… and, *cough*… could you help me to the bathroom to change clothes?” 

The moment she looked up, the girl returned to her usual frail and pitiable demeanor. 

“Is that okay, Auntie?” 

Her previously cold tone softened again. It became gentle and non-threatening. 

It was as if everything the middle-aged woman saw earlier was an illusion. 

“Okay… alright…” 

“Thank you, Auntie.”

Finally, everything was ready. 

It was just… waiting for nightfall. 

And today wasn’t too hot. It was truly perfect timing, place, and conditions. 

At dinner, Qiao Jinyan could clearly feel Qiao Zhinian’s bad mood. 

Perhaps because Aunt Liang and the others weren’t here today. 

It was especially “obvious.” 

The dining table was so quiet that only the sound of chopsticks hitting bowls could be heard. 

For the sake of the evening’s surprise, Qiao Jinyan could only grit her teeth and swallow the words of concern for her sister. 

It was better to keep things as they were for now. 

To avoid Aunt Song noticing that she and Nian Nian had been at odds recently… 

Besides, the surprise she prepared was only meant for her sister to know. 

Qiao Jinyan tried hard to keep her “expression” as usual. It was so that the omega sister sitting across from her wouldn’t notice anything. 

But in Qiao Zhinian’s eyes, she saw her alpha sister “with a cold face.” She was unwilling to say a single word to her. 

The alpha’s perfect features looked especially indifferent today. 

Qiao Zhinian lowered her eyes. She was staring at the barely touched food in her bowl. 

Her eyes were full of disappointment and sadness. 

Was she… already unwilling to even talk to her? 

Perhaps in Qiao Jinyan’s heart, she was now just a sister throwing a tantrum for no reason after failing to get her way. 

That’s why… 

Qiao Zhinian kept her head down. She was holding back the sting in her eyes. She mechanically stirred the soup in her bowl with the spoon clenched in her hand.

Song Qingzhu witnessed all this. For the first time, she felt that this meal was so “unpleasant.” 

Didn’t they find this atmosphere uncomfortable? 

Each one didn’t want to eat but insisted on sitting at the table, suffering. 

And their expressions—one looking “numb,” another “in pain”—made Song Qingzhu lose her appetite too. 

What happened? Didn’t Nian Nian just come back a few days ago? 

Did Second Treasure mess up again? 

Something seemed off during the day. 

But… weren’t these two sisters usually the closest, always sticking together? 

Unable to make sense of these troublesome matters, the enchanting wife suddenly spoke at the quiet dining table. 

“I’m tired. If you don’t want to eat, leave it for the auntie to clean up… eat some snacks or do whatever you want.” 

Song Qingzhu couldn’t stand watching these two kids, who didn’t want to eat. She only pretended to eat properly in front of her. 

It was truly awkward. 

Song Qingzhu always prioritized enjoyment and never forced herself to feel uncomfortable. 

But these two kids… they looked like they were each “suffering.” 

It ruined her appetite… she didn’t know if these two had fought. 

Song Qingzhu picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth. 

“And I don’t care why you’re fighting… make up quickly.” 

With that, Song Qingzhu got up and left. 

Young people’s matters were better left alone… 

There was a generation gap, after all. 

Giving them space to talk it out themselves was more effective than anything. 

And also… if her little troublemaker were here, she could dump this mess on her. 

A longing glint flashed in the fox-like enchanting woman’s eyes as she quickened her steps upstairs. 

Song Qingzhu now only wanted to hurry upstairs, call Qiao Jiangli, and complain about the “grievance” of taking care of two awkward kids alone at home. 

// 

Do whatever they wanted, huh… 

“I’m full.” 

Qiao Jinyan “calmly” put down her chopsticks. 

Glancing at the aunties who hadn’t left yet, Qiao Jinyan hesitated. But she still picked up her bowl and chopsticks and headed to the kitchen. 

Looking around, Qiao Jinyan walked to the auntie cleaning in the kitchen and whispered her request. 

After getting a positive response, Qiao Jinyan felt relieved. 

It wasn’t dark yet. So there was no rush… but Nian Nian’s current state clearly showed she was waiting for her to make the first move to talk. 

It was like a “cold war” between lovers. 

The one in the wrong had to apologize first. 

Qiao Jinyan knew the easiest way to coax her sister. 

If she just lowered her head now, hugged her warm-hearted sister, and apologized for before, the other would forgive her. 

But for some reason, she just didn’t want to do it. 

Qiao Jinyan gritted her teeth. Her heart was conflicted. 

No, to be absolutely sure, she’d check everything again later. 

But… Qiao Jinyan’s steps paused. Her gaze involuntarily fell on the lonely figure of the girl at the dining table. 

For a moment, she really wanted to just tell her the surprise. 

But Qiao Jinyan’s reason quickly suppressed that urge. 

They say the greater the disappointment, the greater the surprise… so she’d endure a bit longer. 

But… there was something about Nian Nian that seemed different from before. 

That look in her eyes… 

A trace of doubt flashed in Qiao Jinyan’s eyes. 

For a moment, the way Nian Nian looked at her seemed like she wanted to devour her. 

That look of wild possession and obsession. 

It was a bit like the way Lu Wanning looked at her that day. 

This was nothing like the pure and innocent little angel sister in her memory. 

It must’ve been her mistake, right? 

How could her pure, lovely, and kind baby sister show such a terrifying expression?
