Chapter 73 Why is it Xiaonan Niang? (Apology and additional update)
"It's my cousin. She came to Lanjing to play some time ago. I took her to visit several scenic spots, and now she has gone back." Jiang Yao waved her hands frantically and subconsciously evaded the question, but the expression on her face was indescribably stiff and turned pale in an instant.

Chen Yuan looked at her with some confusion, thinking something was wrong. He was just asking casually, why did she react so strongly? He had never heard Jiang Yao mention having a sister.

However, he did not delve into it further for a simple reason - a couple probably has to be close to a certain level before they would want to introduce the couple to their family, which at least means they are close to discussing marriage.

There is a saying that goes, if you are unsure of something, don't let everyone know. If the two of you can end up together, that would be the best. If you end up parting ways, it would be embarrassing when friends and family ask about it.

Relationships always progress step by step, starting with friends.

Chen Yuan could understand, he just glanced at Jiang Yao indifferently and didn't say anything more.

"Don't talk nonsense! Do you want to die?"

After getting through this, Jiang Yao's heart, which had been in her throat, began to fall back, although it was still beating "boom boom" at a very fast speed. She lowered her voice and glared at Xiao Wan, her eyes full of threats, as if she was going to swallow her up in the next second.

Xiao Wan widened her eyes in fear, and realizing that she had said the wrong thing, she nodded vigorously.

"Whoo~"

The hand covering her mouth loosened, Xiao Wan took two deep breaths and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Things like twin sisters are undoubtedly something to brag about in the eyes of others, as they are two people who look exactly the same. However, among the countless records of twin births, the probability is only one percent.

But Xiao Wan didn’t know that this kind of thing could be talked about casually in other places, but for Chen Yuan, it was undoubtedly a taboo secret.

No boy can accept being fooled by two girls in his first love.

This is deceptive, hypocritical, and violates the principles of love.

Therefore, even Jiang Ning did not dare to reveal it easily. She was afraid that if she said that they logged into the same account and took turns chatting when they were in an online relationship, it would disgust Chen Yuan.

Until now, we have ended up in a situation where we have made one mistake after another.

At the comic convention, the atmosphere was cheerful and lively. Jiang Yao excitedly pulled Chen Yuan and Xiao Wan to buy peripheral products together, one in her left hand and one in her right hand. She felt extremely happy at the moment and forgot all her worries.

……

"Hello, Miss, can we take a photo together?"

As the three of them were walking towards the booth, a girl cosplaying as Nasitan came over. She spoke to Xiao Wan with a cautious and exceptionally friendly attitude.

Xiao Wan also wore a cosplay costume, which was her favorite TV series character - Rikka Takanashi, the heroine of the "Chuunibyou ga Koi ga Shitai" series. Needless to say, she is really suitable for this role, especially her height, which is a replica of the original.

"of course can."

Xiao Wan took off the blindfold, looked at the other person with her golden eyes, and then took the initiative to come over and pose.

"Let me take a picture of you two." Jiang Yao took the phone handed to her, included the two of them in the camera, and heard a "click".

"It's done."

"Thank you, young lady. But can I take another photo?" The girl smiled shyly, but her voice sounded a little weird, at least that's what Chen Yuan thought, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Then change the pose? I know the classic moves of Rikka," Xiao Wan said, holding her hands in the shape of holding an umbrella, frowning, and acting out the coolness and domineering attitude that the "Evil King's True Eye Messenger" should have, "I'm ready."

"Sorry, not with you."

"Eh?!"

"I want to take a picture with..." The girl stretched out a finger, smiled shyly, and pointed at Jiang Yao... Chen Yuan behind her, "Take a picture with him."

"Ah? I'm not a cosplayer." Chen Yuan quickly waved his hands, confused.

"No, you look a lot like the lead actor in a movie I like, directed by Shunji Iwai," the girl pursed her lips, approached carefully, and said softly, "Is it okay?"

Chen Yuan was completely confused. From childhood to adulthood, no one had ever told him that he looked like so-and-so?

Iwai what? He knows nothing about the entertainment industry, let alone the foreign film industry.

He subconsciously wanted to refuse, and just as he raised his hand, Jiang Yao next to him suddenly changed her attitude and raised her cell phone.

"Then I'll take a picture of you two."

"Thank you, young lady. You are so nice!" The girl bowed slightly. She looked very polite and well-educated. There was a faint scent of jasmine on her body, which both she and Xiao Wan could smell.

To Chen Yuan's surprise, Jiang Yao actually agreed to take photos with other girls... Considering her jealous and petty personality, it was really strange.

Facing the camera, Chen Yuan did not make any poses, but just stood there properly and forced a smile. Instead, the girl leaned towards him, looking intimate, and her eyes curved with laughter. "The photo is ready."

The girl who was cosplaying as Nasitan took the phone handed to her by Jiang Yao, lowered her head and swiped the screen, watching it for a moment, and when she raised her face, a happy smile was on her face.

"It's a beautiful shot. Thank you again."

"You're too polite. Not really."

"By the way, I have another request... Although it may sound a bit offensive," the girl turned her head and stared at Chen Yuan, asking sincerely, "Your hands are also very beautiful, can we compare them?"

"How can we compare..."

"Stretch it out like this."

She took Chen Yuan's hand, and the two of them put their ten fingers together and compared them. Jiang Yao was watching all of this, and what was extremely surprising was that Jiang Yao did not react at all, but just exchanged glances with Xiao Wan and looked at this girl quietly.

"Your hands are so big, making my hands look so small." The girl said in a coquettish voice.

"...If there's nothing else, we're leaving." Chen Yuan suddenly got goose bumps on his arms and quickly withdrew his hand.

"Can you add a green bubble, little brother...you smell so good."

"No, stay away from me."

"Really? I have no other purpose, I just want to get to know you better."

Jiang Yao and Xiao Wan stood aside and watched Chen Yuan almost running away. They were almost laughing to the point of vomiting. They held their stomachs and laughed forward and backward, with a look of disgust on their faces.

This is what a homegirl is like...

After a while, Chen Yuan finally got rid of the entanglement of this "girl", wiped the cold sweat from his head, and when he returned to Jiang Yao, he had already walked a full circle around the second floor.

"Why do I feel...that she's weird?" Chen Yuan panted.

"Can't you see? He's a boy."

"Ah? Impossible, the voice is clearly a woman's."

"That's fake voice," Xiao Wan explained proudly, "Xiao Nanniang knows how to do it. It's one of their required courses. It looks like they're attracted to you."

"No wonder you didn't stop him. After all this time, it turned out to be a man... It's so scary, you can't tell at all, and he even has breasts." Chen Yuan pulled Jiang Yao over, ready to give her a hard slap on the head.

"You just have to get used to it. There are a lot of guys dressed as women at comic conventions. Sometimes I can't even tell them apart."

"Why do boys want to be Xiao Nan's wife?" Chen Yuan asked in confusion.

"It's just a personal hobby. Sometimes people do things that others can't understand, like the popular Japanese writer who writes light novels. He also likes to write while wearing stockings. It is said that this way he can get more inspiration."

"?"

Chen Yuan was stunned. He imagined the scene casually in his mind and was really shocked by the two-dimensional world.

……

Comic convention, public toilet on the first floor.

There were indeed a lot of men in cross-dressing changing clothes in the men's restroom. The young man who had just asked Chen Yuan to take a photo also came over. He lowered his head and held his phone, skillfully using the photo-editing software to add filters to the photo of himself and Chen Yuan. He also planned to smooth the skin and whiten it. His movements were so fast that an afterimage was left.

"Xiao Rui, where did you go? You didn't even reply to my messages."

In front of the sink, another little Nanniang wiped the water droplets on her hands and came over.

"I went to take photos with someone, and I met a boy who looked very cool. He's definitely my type. What a pity..." The boy called Xiao Rui no longer had to fake his voice. He said this normally, his tone full of regret, "He should have a boyfriend."

"A sense of atmosphere? What you said is quite mysterious. How come I have never seen this kind of thing in real life?"

"It's just that he's rare, so I have to take the initiative. If you don't believe me, look, I took a photo with him."

Xiao Rui raised his head and glanced at him, then lowered his head again. The photo filter had been added. The little Nan girl who was talking to him came over and stared at his phone screen curiously.

But just one glance.

The expression on the little Nanniang's pretty face froze instantly.
