After Lin Mu's figure disappeared, Yukino Shitayuki covered her rapidly beating heart, a slight smile involuntarily curving her lips.
"A devil? He's truly gentle."
Willing to endure the pain himself to heal his sister's injuries, Lin Mu's actions successfully moved Yukino Shitayuki.
Although he himself also paid a price.
From now on, her entire life would exist as Lin Mu's possession.
But everything was worth it.
When she prayed to the gods and received no response, it was Lin Mu who answered her expectations.
Moreover, he wasn't like the devils in movies or fairy tales, making those who traded with him endure all sorts of pain and human tragedies.
Instead, he treated her so gently.
Although his unreserved actions towards her also caused a hint of resentment in Yang Nai's heart.
But overall, she was quite satisfied with her first time.
Her only dissatisfaction was how skilled he was.
This philandering devil!
Sitting by the bed, Yukino Shitayuki brushed aside her sister's beautiful hair from her forehead, looking at the now rosy little face, a gentle smile unconsciously appeared.
"Little Yukino, wake up soon, okay? Big sister will always be with you."
What she didn't know was that Yukino Yukinoshita was already awake.
Or rather, she had been awake the whole time.
She just couldn't open her eyes.
When Lin Mu kissed her, she felt everything with incredible clarity.
What made her feel embarrassed was that the person actually used his tongue!
How could there be such a person?
Not only did he steal her first kiss, but he was also so excessive.
Yukino Yukinoshita didn't want to open her eyes.
It wasn't that she didn't want her sister to see her awake, but she was afraid of the awkwardness and didn't know what to do at the moment.
Moreover, she decided not to tell her sister that she knew everything, otherwise her sister would be very embarrassed and ashamed, right?
Facing this sister who was willing to give everything to heal her, Yukino Yukinoshita was moved like never before.
Until a sudden urge to urinate came, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't pretend anymore.
She opened her eyes, looking at her sister with embarrassment.
"Sister, I..."
"Little Yukino, you're finally awake! Wuwu... That's great!"
Seeing her sister finally open her eyes and call her name energetically, Yang Nai hugged her tightly, her eyes welling up, and tears streaming down uncontrollably.
"Hmm... Sister... Let go of me first... I need to use the restroom."
Despite the shame, Yukino Yukinoshita still decided to take care of her personal needs first.
"Uh... Sorry, sister will take you."
Yang Nai was startled for a second, then immediately smiled, helping her out of bed. Her careful demeanor warmed Yukino Yukinoshita's heart.
At the same time, Yukino Yukinoshita also made up her mind.
She would find that devil and find a way to make him break the contract.
She couldn't let such a good sister be bound by him for a lifetime because of her!
...
The news of Yukino Yukinoshita waking up was nothing short of a miracle, causing the hospital doctors to widen their eyes in astonishment.
After examination, it was found that her body had completely recovered and there were no problems at all.
The attending physician still wanted to keep her hospitalized for observation, but Mrs. Yukino, without any politeness, displayed the aura of a councilor's wife and said a few words with a smile.
The attending physician's little schemes immediately couldn't continue to cause trouble, and he could only let Yukino Yukinoshita complete the discharge procedures.
Wasn't that doctor thinking that Yukino's body was special and wanted to continue examining her and researching it?
Mrs. Yukino naturally wouldn't let him succeed.
After making a phone call and having her councilor husband deal with that ill-intentioned doctor, Mrs. Yukino finally looked at her fully recovered second daughter.
Yukino Yukinoshita lowered her head, feeling a bit embarrassed. For a moment, she didn't know how to face her mother, with whom she had always had conflicts.
"Mother... Ugh!"
However, there were no words of reproach. Mrs. Yukino hugged her second daughter tightly.
Her eyes also became moist.
"Little Yukino, welcome back."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes also became slightly moist.
She awkwardly extended her hands and hugged her mother back.
"I'm back, Mother."
Seeing the mother and daughter getting along harmoniously, Yang Nai also opened her arms and joined the hug.
Seriously.
How can you exclude me?
I want to hug Little Yukino and Mother too!
For a moment, the gloom over the Snow family dissipated, and everything began to develop in a positive direction.
Back home, Yukino Yukinoshita immediately ran to the bathroom.
After lying in the hospital for so long, although her sister had constantly wiped her body, she still felt a strange smell on her body.
Girls are all clean, how could she stand the smell of medicine on her body?
While washing her fair body, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but cover her lips.
Thinking of that person's act of sticking out his tongue, Yukino Yukinoshita became angrier the more she thought about it.
She felt unclean.
But thinking of her sister, this little thing seemed insignificant.
Her sister had given everything, including her pure body and her future life.
Yukino Yukinoshita clutched her chest, feeling very heavy-hearted.
She had no idea what she could use to buy her sister's freedom.
After all, she was a vegetable before, and that devil had also paid a price to restore her health.
How could she make him change the contract?
Could it be that she should just lie there and be a vegetable again?
Not to mention that she herself didn't want to be a cripple, and besides, what her sister had already lost couldn't be brought back.
The troubled Second Miss Yukino Yukinoshita walked out of the bathroom, full of internal conflict, and slipped into bed.
Meanwhile, Yukino Shitayuki hugged her sister, nuzzling her cheek against her arm like a spoiled child.
"Little Yukino, big sister is going to sleep with you tonight, okay? Aren't you feeling nostalgic?"
The former Little Yukino was her shadow.
No matter where she went, Little Yukino would always follow her every step.
But as the eldest daughter, she was to inherit the Snow family. She accepted her mother's high-pressure education and became the spokesperson for the Snow family.
She didn't want Yukino to know about the hardships and difficulties involved, and even less did she want Yukino to follow the same path as her.
So she began to play pranks on her beloved sister, causing her sister to instinctively tremble whenever she saw her.
After that, her sister stopped following her, but gradually grew distant from her, which in turn made Yang Nai feel incredibly lost.
Facing her sister's playful affection, Yukino Yukinoshita didn't push her away this time, but just snuggled into her sister's embrace and nodded gently.
"En, let's sleep together."
Thinking of what her sister had done for her, she wanted to cry.
But she couldn't let her sister know that she understood everything, so she could only hide these feelings and bear them silently by herself.
Yang Nai, on the other hand, didn't overthink it.
Her sister was finally awake and so healthy; she couldn't be happier.
At the same time, her gratitude towards a certain devil grew even stronger.
