Chapter 19: Xiao Guang: Do you understand the value of the first silver dragon support? ( Part 2 )
Xiao Guang wouldn’t miss any opportunity for fun. Blindfolded tag was the second sister’s favorite game, and she wondered what method Munen would use to “assert her dominance” once the game started.
“Okay, I’m fine with whatever.”
Being the guest, Helena naturally agreed.
The girls played rock-paper-scissors to decide who would be the “ghost.”
The final result of the game was that Noa lost, so she would be the ghost for the first round.
Munen helped her sister put on the blindfold and then stepped aside.
Xiao Guang and Helena also distanced themselves.
“Ready? Here I come!”
Noa raised her arm, carefully feeling her way forward.
The blindfolded tag doesn’t have much technique, it relies on 90% hearing and…
91% luck.
But even so, it remained a game that kids loved to play with their families.
In this round, Noa was quite lucky. As she fumbled around, she was getting closer and closer to Munen.
Munen, watching Noa approach, felt a surge of excitement.
See!
Even with a blindfold on, my sister is the first to sense me!
Don’t underestimate the bond between me and my sister!
Noa was getting closer, and Munen, smiling, prepared herself to be scooped up by her sister.
Come on, sister, don’t be shy! Grab me! Grab me!
However, just as Noa was about to catch Munen, she suddenly turned away.
Munen was stunned and blinked her large, pretty eyes, shouting in her heart,
Sister, I’m over here! Just take one more step!
Unfortunately, Noa didn’t have the internal communication that their parents did.
She continued to turn and slowly moved toward Helena instead.
Seeing this, Munen became a little anxious.
If Noa continued forward, she would end up hugging Helena!
No,No, no, no, no!
The first hug from my sister today is mine!
Munen’s brain started thinking for once, trying to figure out a way to keep her sister!
Helena, seeing Noa getting closer to her, followed the rules of the game and tried to avoid Noa as much as possible.
She slowly stepped back, trying to keep her footsteps light, without making any noise.
But Noa continued to approach slowly.
After a few steps back, Helena’s back suddenly hit a tree trunk.
She had no way to retreat.
And Noa was almost right in front of her.
Helena squinted and smiled, thinking, I’m about to be caught.
“Creek!”
Just as Noa was about to catch Helena, the sound of a tree branch breaking came from behind Noa.
Noa’s ears were sharp, and she immediately turned around and quickly felt her way toward the sound.
And it was none other than Munen who had stepped on the branch.
Noa easily caught her sister and tightly embraced her before taking off the blindfold.
“Sister, you grabbed me first, that’s so annoying!”
She said “annoying,” but inside, she was overjoyed.
Noa removed the blindfold and gently pinched her sister’s nose.. “Who told you to step on the branch?”
“Ugh…”
She wasn’t sure why she suddenly stepped on a branch either.
But who cares, she was able to hug her sister, even if it were steel bars, she would have broken them!
“Sister, you’re so great, hehe~”
Munen leaned into Noa’s arms, her little tail wagging happily, looking incredibly cute.
Meanwhile, Xiao Guang looked down at the several branches in her hands and quietly hid them behind her back.
“Second sister, remember, someone is always here in the shadows to protect you!”
…
After the ghost-catching game, the little dragon girls played some other games.
Most of them were physical games involving contact.
Although Munen was usually a bit lazy, regarded as the mascot of the Silver Dragon Temple, to successfully guard the tower, she made an effort to be clever this time.
Half of the morning was spent in Noa’s arms.
Noa even briefly considered whether they should just sit down, with Munen in her arms and Helena holding Xiao Guang, chatting casually.
But she still followed Munen’s wishes and played various little games with her.
After lunch, since they had woken up early and spent the entire morning playing, fatigue and drowsiness began to creep in. Munen tried to resist.
But she couldn’t resist.
In the end, with Leon’s comfort, she returned to her room for a nap.
Xiao Guang, seeing that there would be no fun left for the afternoon, went straight to her mother’s private library to pass the time.
Noa and Helena didn’t need a rest. The two girls returned to the back garden of the temple, lying on the grass, enjoying the warm, pleasant noon sunlight.
“Noa.”
“Mm?”
“Your sisters seem to like you.” Helena gazed at the clear, cloudless sky.
Her pupils, the same deep blue as the sky, reflected the calm.
“Mm, especially Munen. She’s always been clingy since she was little.”
After a pause, Noa added, “But lately, it seems a bit unusual… She’s always been clingy, but not to this extent.”
Helena smiled, closed her eyes, and slowly said, “But you still accept it all.”
Noa curved the corner of her mouth. “Yeah, after all, she’s my sister.”
“You once told me that you work so hard and are so diligent because you want to protect and take care of your sisters and not disappoint Uncle Leon and Aunt Roseweiser, right?”
Noa nodded.
“From what I can see, you’re doing great.”
Helena said, “Your sisters depend on you, and I can see the pride in Uncle Leon and Aunt Roseweiser’s eyes when they look at you. Noa, you’re doing well.”
