[R18] Paradox [siblings] – An in-depth review of “Paradox [Sister and Brother]” [English]

Every Monday the school has a speech under the national flag, where the school leaders or student representatives speak on the podium.

Surprisingly, Ling Qingyuan, the student union president who was supposed to speak today, arrived late. It was only after the dean repeatedly emphasized the problem of students’ puppy love style that Ling Qingyuan walked up from the other side of the podium with long legs.

His eyebrows were clear and his expression was calm. Even though his face was dizzy with heat, there was no trace of panic at all. He stood in front of the microphone in an orderly manner.

He was just a sophomore in high school who had skipped a grade. Judging from his age, he was only a freshman in high school at this time, but he happened to stop there and his aura was natural.

The speech was unscripted, mainly to mobilize and encourage senior high school students for the upcoming college entrance examination as a junior. It was originally a very official manuscript, but he said it with a bit of interest. And at the end of the speech, with his clear and powerful enunciation and intonation, the meaning gradually increased, and inexplicably made people really feel the passion of burning the boat.This reminded Ling Sinan of ancient wartime scenes of generals boosting the morale of their soldiers before going into battle, and he was like the general who toasted to the sky and listened to the sound of drums.

Thinking like this, Ling Sinan fantasized about Qingyuan going into battle wearing armor and holding a sword, and couldn’t help but be amused by his own imagination.

“What are you laughing at? By the way, did you ask him to write a review?”

The speech under the national flag had been dismissed and everyone was on their way back to the classroom. Gu Ting’s question made Ling Sinan couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.

“I…I forgot.” After what happened on Saturday, she lived in the new apartment. The luggage Qingyuan prepared for her only had a few clothes and a pile of review materials (yes, there were more review materials than clothes), so on Sunday she went out to buy some daily necessities and ingredients. Because she didn’t have a mobile phone, she couldn’t contact her brother at all, so how could she remember asking him to write a self-review.

“I’m going to the broadcast room during my lunch break. Are you forcing me to make an impromptu speech?” Gu Ting patted his head.

“I’m sorry, I’ll write your review later during the break.”

“What review?” A young man’s voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Ling Sinan turned around, who else could be speaking if not Qingyuan?

Gu Tingxiao glanced at he: “Do you understand the dangers of puppy love, little brother?”

“Not small.” He said with a calm expression.

“???” Gu Ting didn’t react for a moment: “What’s ‘not small’?”

“Nothing is ‘too small’.” He said with a serious face: “You don’t understand, why don’t you ask my sister.”

Ling Sinan’s face was already filled with embarrassment.

Gu Ting, who came back to his senses, rolled his eyes: “Why don’t I want to hear it at all?” He leaned towards Ling Sinan and asked: “If you are forced, just wink at me and I will call the police for you.”

Ling Qingyuan squeezed in between the two of them: “You have a beautiful idea.”

“Stop making trouble.” The two male idols of No. 6 Middle School were hanging around her. She already had no idea how much hatred she had caused. “I have to rush back to finish Gu Ting’s review.”

“Is it the one that will be broadcast at noon today?” Ling Qingyuan raised his eyebrows.

“Yeah.”

“I’ll write it.”

“Huh?” Ling Sinan didn’t expect his younger brother to be so proactive.

Ling Qingyuan looked very responsible: “Of course I should write it. After all, I am in love with you.”

“…” She was a little uncomfortable being so straightforward in front of others.

“Damn, love really smells sour.” Gu Ting snorted, raised his lips and said, “You have to reflect more deeply.”

Ling Qingyuan also smiled back: “Don’t worry, I will definitely write deeply – deeply -”

During the lunch break, Ling Sinan finished his meal early and went to the school radio station with a letter of apology.

The radio station is located in Chengxin Building where the auditorium is located. In addition to the auditorium, a quarter of the building is divided into two floors. The radio station and several club activity rooms are located here.When Ling Sinan came, the broadcaster on duty today was still debugging the equipment, so she asked her to wait aside.

Ling Sinan was holding the self-examination letter in his hand. He didn’t see Gu Ting, and he didn’t have a mobile phone to remind him. He was afraid that he would forget it. After all, this self-reflection was one of the conditions proposed by the teacher and Gu Ting to exempt him from the warning. He had caused harm to others, so he couldn’t really let them be punished, right?

Fortunately, not long after, Gu Ting knocked on the door of the radio station.

“Where’s the confession?” Gu Ting reached out to her.

Ling Sinan was slightly surprised: “Huh?”

“…he didn’t give it to you, did he?”

“I came here directly after dinner. I thought he was looking for you…”

Just as he was talking, the door was opened, and Ling Qingyuan walked in with a stack of papers.

When he entered the door, his eyes happened to collide with those of Gu Ting. Gu Ting’s eyes fell on the paper he brought, and his eyebrows were twisted a little, which probably meant – your mother is kidding me.

Ling Qingyuan chuckled lightly and handed the paper under his arm to He. Under Gu Ting’s panicked eyes, he pulled out one and stuffed it into He’s hand. Then he glanced at Ling Sinan, walked over to Jiang Dongming, who was in charge of broadcasting today, and put down the remaining files: “Next month’s broadcast promotion arrangements.”

Jiang Dongming was flattered: “President, you personally sent it here?” He accepted it as if he had received an imperial edict with a look of admiration.

Ling Qingyuan curled up his lips: “Brother Dongming, don’t be too exaggerated with your acting skills.” He paused, looked back and looked back at Gu Ting, who was about to review the self-criticism letter he handed over, and couldn’t help but ask: “The ‘struggle meeting’ hasn’t started yet? Is it time yet?”

When asked, Jiang Dongming glanced at the clock, hurriedly asked Ling Sinan and Gu Ting to sit down at the broadcast table next to them, and asked: “Which one of you will come first?”

Ling Sinan was punished for public self-examination for the first time in his life. He was very nervous. Seeing that she couldn’t let go, Gu Ting simply said: “I will go first.”

Jiang Dongming nodded and sat back, turned on the mic and gave a brief explanation first, which was probably “Everyone knows that the school does not promote puppy love. Last week, two students made mistakes and caused some trouble. Today, two students came to the radio station to review. I hope everyone can learn from it.” After that, he signaled to Gu Ting that he could start.

Gu Ting picked up the manuscript in his hand and began to read it according to the subject.

The beginning was unremarkable. He just reviewed the incident last week and explained that he was also a victim. Then he continued with the same old-fashioned mandarin, such as “As a senior high school student, you should focus on your studies in the college entrance examination.” It sounded boring and boring, so he continued to read it quickly without any worries, until——

“I know that as the successor of socialism, puppy love will corrupt my pure heart. At the same time, I should have a clear understanding of myself, put myself in a suitable position, and should not have any unrealistic expectations about the outstanding female classmates around me. After all, when I was a student, I didn’t study well and was looking for trouble all day long. I am not worthy…” Gu Ting read here and his voice became smaller and smaller, and he sternly slashed at Ling Qingyuan, who was watching the show with his arms folded beside him.

Ling Qingyuan was smiling, and the narrowness in his eyes almost spilled out of the corners of his eyes. He also whispered, “Don’t stop, examine deeply.”

Gu Ting threw away the manuscript, lowered his head and cursed “fuck”. There were other nonsense words that followed, such as “I swear I will never come within three meters of classmate Ling Sinan again”, “I will be the successor of socialism wholeheartedly, I will not fall in love, I will not cause trouble, and I will devote myself to socialism”. He really couldn’t say it.

Ling Sinan, who had already heard that something was wrong, turned around and saw Ling Qingyuan with his back to them, his head against the wall, and he was pounding the wall until he couldn’t help laughing. He couldn’t help raising his eyebrows and calling in a low voice – “Qingyuan, what are you doing?”

Jiang Dongming on the side was probably seeing the student president like this for the first time, and he couldn’t help but look a little lost. It took him a long time to realize that the broadcast was jammed, and kept asking Gu Ting to continue talking.

Gu Ting picked up the microphone and leaned closer: “Actually, I don’t know what’s wrong with falling in love. Anyway, just study hard and review that I really tried my best. That’s it.” After saying that, he stood up and walked in front of Ling Qingyuan. However, the broadcast was still going on. He could only give him a hard look, turned around and walked out of the broadcast room.

The broadcast was interrupted in a hurry, and the booing from the teaching building outside could even be heard. Jiang Dongming quickly smoothed things over, inserting a short piece of music first, sitting on a chair with his legs crossed and looking at the two siblings, with lingering fear: “Classmate Ling Sinan, you are not going to do something wrong, are you?”

Ling Sinan looked embarrassed and waved his hand towards he: “No, my manuscript is normal, and it was not Gu Ting’s fault just now, it was all…”

Jiang Dongming is still waiting for her to say.

“…” Ling Sinan felt that he shouldn’t add the last sentence. He couldn’t say that Gu Ting’s manuscript just now was written by his brother, right?He glared at Ling Qingyuan next to him angrily again, and then responded calmly: “——It’s all the fault of the system.”

“Hahahaha——” Ling Qingyuan was really laughing beside him this time, so much that he lost his image at all.

Although Jiang Dongming also found it interesting, he didn’t know why. Seeing the usually reserved president of the student union smiling like this, he couldn’t help but ask: “That… president – is it me today?”

“It’s not me. I have something to burn.” Ling Qingyuan straightened up and pressed his chest to calm the twitching expression on his face.

Speechless Jiang Dongming readjusted the broadcast and asked Ling Sinan to prepare.

Ling Sinan took a deep breath, and the girl’s gentle voice slowly sounded throughout the campus.

Not long after, Jiang Dongming opened the door and went out without knowing what happened.

From the corner of his eye, Ling Sinan caught a glimpse of his brother standing next to her, leaning over to read her manuscript.

In addition to the self-reflection letter with black characters on a white background, all he could see were the cuffs of a white shirt, with two silver cufflinks embedded in the clean and flat sleeves.

The young man’s slender wrists were wrapped under his sleeves. His fingers were slender and white, with clear joints. His skin was so thin that you could see the light blue meridians. Under the natural light in the room, the back of his hands seemed to glow with a faint halo.

The graph paper on which the self-review was written was too soft, so he held up the pages of the self-review and held them up for her to make it easier for her to read.

The faint tea scent of fabric softener lingered on the tip of his nose. Ling Sinan thought about it, and his thoughts drifted to he.

The smell is so disturbing.

Especially the sound of Ling Qingyuan’s even breathing in his ears.

Fortunately, there was soft background music on the radio when she was reading, so her occasional pauses were not too abrupt.

She read the manuscript slowly, unable to control her distraction. She raised her eyes from time to time and met Qingyuan’s focused gaze.

In his amber eyes was his own panic.

The more I read, the hotter my cheeks feel, as if what I am reading is not a self-examination, but some shameful words. Although the speed of reading is getting slower and slower, my heart is beating at an unusually high frequency.

Stop looking.

She thought in her heart, her eyes couldn’t help but dodge.

There was an attractive blush on her cheeks.

The radio station in the afternoon, the soothing background music, the gentle fragrance of tea, the young man’s eyes full of love, and…

A touch of warmth falling from thin lips.

He closed his eyes lightly, his long eyelashes resting on her round skin, trembling slightly with his breathing, brushing against her pink cheeks again and again.

The warm lips touched her, feeling hot and cold, she couldn’t tell the difference.

Soft, moist, like downy feathers, sliding down the face.

Ling Sinan was stunned. He forgot which line he had read in the manuscript in his hand.

He held the back of her chair, glanced at the page from the corner of his eye, pointed at a section, and whispered softly in her ear: “Continue…”

She kept reciting her self-criticism for a while, and could only hear the uncontrollable laughter in her ears.

“Puppy love can easily distract people and consume their willpower.”

——You are so right, she secretly cursed.

“For a senior high school student, it is natural that he should devote all his energy to studying and stay away from the poison of puppy love. Our minds are not mature enough now, and at this age, we cannot truly appreciate the beauty of love…”

Qingyuan’s lips were caressing along the lines of her cheeks, and the warm breath from his lips made her feel numb and itchy like an electric shock.

Her body trembled as she closed in on he’s kiss.

She raised her hands to push, but the strength was pitiful. In the end, it turned into a combination of wanting to welcome and resisting, and she clung to the skirt of He’s chest and wouldn’t let go.

Will the breathing sound be too loud?

Is the door to the radio station closed?

Did I read the wrong line in the manuscript just now?

With endless thoughts in his mind, Ling Sinan finally read the last line of the self-examination letter.

“So I sincerely reflect and will not make such a mistake again. I hope that my classmates can also learn from it, stay away from the illusion of love, remember their duties as students, study hard, and… well, every day.”

Before he could finish the last word of the sentence, Ling Qingyuan suddenly opened the microphone with one hand and closed it with familiarity.

He pushed her back into the chair and kissed her lips.
