After hesitating for a long time, Barbara's eyes regained firmness and she spoke to Lisa.

"I want to talk to sister Qin..."

"oh?"

Hearing the change in Barbara's title, Lisa raised her eyebrows slightly.

It seems she is serious this time.

But it's normal. She is a girl in her twenties. In some places, she is already a mother. How can she still be so timid?

"It's optional, but I think... Qin must have been waiting for a long time."

Lisa smiled slightly, strode out the door, and hung a 'resting' sign on the office.

If the studio can't finish everything, it's better to give these two sisters some time alone.

Fortunately, she was also happy and free.

In the office, Barbara looked at her sister's haggard face, her eyes full of compassion.

She stayed by the sofa, quietly waiting for the sun to set on the hillside.

After a long time, dusk gradually disappeared from the window, and the last ray of sunset also disappeared on the earth.

Barbara got up and lit the chandelier in the room.

But maybe her movements were a little too big, because Qin suddenly started murmuring in her sleep.

"Lisa..."

Her voice sounded a bit dry and rough, probably because her throat was uncomfortable.

Hearing the sound, Barbara was startled and subconsciously turned off the light she had just turned on.

But the sound of the light switching on and off was clearly captured by Qin in his sleep.

"Is it night? Lisa..."

It was still the same as when she woke up last time. Qin did not open her eyes and was still curled up lazily under the quilt.

It's just that her delicate body is too slender, and even if she curls up, the quilt covering her body still looks a bit narrow.

Lisa helped cover last time, but this time Barbara was at her wits' end.

She just stood there, and she could even hear her own beating heart in the darkness.

The sound was like beating on a heavy drum, making her chest tremble continuously in the silence.

But soon, Barbara forced herself to calm down and took a deep breath.

The blue-gray eyes were once again covered with determination.

She slowly walked to Qin who was half asleep on the sofa and said softly.

"elder sister."

Just two words instantly woke Qin up from her sleep.

She opened her eyes suddenly.

Under the night, the two people looked at each other.

Although the lights were dim, Qin immediately confirmed the identity of the person in front of her. Who else could it be besides her own sister Barbara.

The remaining sleepiness in Qin's eyes quickly faded, and she subconsciously fiddled with her messy hair twice, trying to make herself look more in line with her sister's identity.

But it was obvious that it was meaningless for her to do so. As long as no one admired her sleeping face like a baby, no one would care about her so-called sister's reserve.

The so-called acting leader is just an ordinary woman.

Barbara was silent for a while, then turned on the light at hand.

The light came sloping down like a waterfall, driving away the night from the entire house.

"Barbara..."

Qin was a little dazed by the sudden bright light and murmured.

"Ah! When did you come?"

After a while, Qin suddenly realized what she was doing and quickly asked Barbara to sit down. She even thought of pulling a stool for her, but Barbara pushed her back to the sofa.

"Sister, take a good rest when you are tired, otherwise you won't be able to work tomorrow."

"oh..."

Qin was a little confused as Barbara called her "sister" again and again. Her newly awakened mind became groggy again, and she might fall asleep at any time.

She bit the tip of her tongue lightly to wake herself up again.

"Barbara, why are you here, where is Lisa?"

"Miss Lisa went out before and left you under my watch."

Barbara didn't say a word about the art of language that she asked for it, so it sounded like Lisa took the initiative to dump Qin to Barbara, which made Qin couldn't help but mutter something about her best friend.

This Lisa.

"That guy has always been out of tune. Sorry to bother you, Barbara."

Qin's eyes flashed with a color called helplessness. She shook her head, and there was nothing she could do about her best friend.

Judging by the time, that guy has probably already escaped.

It was Yola who called Lisa here today, otherwise she probably wouldn't have even taken a step into the Knights.

That woman's lazy temperament is comparable to that of the cat at the door.

"It doesn't matter."

The two of them sat at opposite ends of the sofa, feeling a little awkward for a moment.

The hands of the clock hanging on the wall have passed seven, and have spread their legs towards eight.

The sound of ticking gears seemed so clear at this moment.

After a while, Barbara, who was at loggerheads, took the initiative to tell her the purpose of her visit.

"I heard...my sister is worried about marriage recently."

As soon as these words came out, Qin's eyes flickered a few times, and her eyes were a little erratic.

"This matter has nothing to do with you. Children, please don't interfere in adults' matters."

"But I'm an adult!"

Seemingly very angry that her sister still treated her like a child, Barbara raised her arms and clenched her fists tightly in front of her.

"I am not a child in my sister's eyes."

Barbara's voice gave Qin a headache. She pressed her temples and sighed softly.

"I appreciate your kindness, but this is not what you seem -"

But before Qin could finish speaking, Barbara interrupted.

"I know, it's just Mother who is behind the scenes, forcing you to take action, right?"

Hearing this, Qin's red lips opened slightly, as if she didn't expect Barbara to guess this step.

But soon, her eyebrows moved and she asked.

"Someone told you? Who? Lisa?"

"Don't worry about who it is, just tell me whether what I said is right or not."

Just kidding, how could Barbara confess Bai Qiyun now?

For her, Bai Qiyun is already her last trump card.

There was absolutely no way she would betray that man before the real crisis came.

But she obviously forgot one thing. If the news about her and Bai Qiyun's street official announcement in the afternoon came into Qin's ears, even if she didn't say it, Qin would be able to guess who was giving her advice behind the scenes. But now she was dizzy with sleep.

It was impossible for Qin to think of this.

Facing Barbara's unyielding gaze, Qin rubbed her temples in confusion.

"Indeed."

She did not continue to evade. Now that her sister had come to the door and pointed out the logic behind it, there was basically no way to escape this matter.

And there is no need to run away anymore, today is a good time to talk.

Qin regained her composure and whispered softly to her sister.
