In late autumn, golden ginkgo leaves covered the courtyard. The living room had a double-height ceiling, and beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows stretched a gray-blue sky. When the wind blew, shadows from the trees flickered across the marble floor.
You Xu was dozing in a rocking chair, eyes half-closed. Hearing a sound, he lazily opened his eyes and turned his head.
The girl's eyes drooped slightly, giving her a look that made people want to dote on her, but she didn't even look his way.
One day, Yu Xi was stopped by a boy from her class in an alley, who wanted to talk to her. You Xu was leaning against a wall across the street. No one knew how long he'd been there.
The man watched them listlessly, looking displeased.
They headed home together. He sat down in the entryway, leaving her to brace herself against the wall as she changed her shoes.
She had only just kicked one shoe halfway off when someone tugged her backpack strap from behind, neither gently nor roughly. She stumbled backward.
You Xu wrapped an arm around her waist and rested his chin by her shoulder, his voice lazy, though he seemed even more displeased.
"You're pretty popular, aren't you, little sister?"
-She isn't anyone's muse. She's her own Lorelei.
