Chapter 2: Sister’s Reward for Good Children.

Lin Qingya’s pupils held not a single glimmer of light.

She merely received Bai Wanting’s words as commands, accepting and executing them without question.

Her vermilion lips parted slightly, her voice flat, carrying a trace of tamed softness.

“Alright… Sister.”

Bai Wanting’s fingertip left Lin Qingya’s forehead, shifting to a playful gesture, lightly twirling a strand of her hair around her finger.

“Then, let’s begin today’s ‘tutoring’ session.”

“Report to Sister first—who did you interact with today, and were you a good girl who listened to Sister’s words?”

Her tone sounded light and casual.

But if the answer was wrong, it would likely lead to an intense “make-up lesson.”

Lin Qingya knew the “tutoring” had begun.

It was an unspoken ritual between them.

A moment for Bai Wanting to test the results of her mental imprint, and for Lin Qingya to have her sense of self further stripped away, her cage reinforced.

The girl on the recliner began her unreserved report.

Her voice remained as flat as ever, devoid of emotion, like a perfectly tuned recorder replaying the day’s events.

“At 7:15 a.m., I said good morning to my desk mate, Zhang Meng. The conversation lasted three seconds.”

“At 9:50 a.m., after the second class, I asked the physics class representative about the homework submission location. The conversation lasted twenty-one seconds.”

“At 12:10 p.m., in the cafeteria, I asked the auntie for a serving of guobaorou and thanked her. The conversation lasted eight seconds.”

“By the way, the cafeteria’s guobaorou was quite delicious.”

“At 2:30 p.m., Li Hao, who sits behind me, tapped my shoulder. He wanted to borrow my notes, so I handed them to him directly without any conversation.”

…

No detail was spared.

From a simple greeting to a trivial request, Lin Qingya recounted every interaction she had with others throughout the day.

Each exchange was remarkably brief, none lasting longer than half a minute.

It had to be said—the power of the human subconscious was far stronger than one might imagine.

Unbeknownst to Lin Qingya herself, her subconscious precisely carried out the underlying command to “minimize contact with everyone except Bai Wanting.”

Bai Wanting listened quietly, the smile on her face growing wider.

She was extremely satisfied.

She gently caressed Lin Qingya’s hair, savoring its silky smoothness, her mood unprecedentedly buoyant.

The first step of her plan was already showing results.

Lin Qingya was subconsciously isolating herself from normal social interactions, turning herself into a landscape open only to Bai Wanting.

The feeling was so exquisite, it was utterly intoxicating…

Just as Bai Wanting was basking in this satisfaction, Lin Qingya’s report abruptly stopped.

Her usually calm voice faltered for the first time.

A shadow clouded her vacant gaze, and within the chaotic sea of her consciousness, feelings of guilt and panic surged.

“There’s more…”

Lin Qingya’s voice began to tremble, as if she had suddenly recalled something utterly terrifying.

“Today… at 4:00 p.m., the physics test results came out… My score… wasn’t very good…”

“The homeroom teacher… Teacher Song, called me to the office… for a talk…”

At this, her body began to quiver uncontrollably.

It was as if a devotee who had committed an unforgivable sin was confessing to their deity.

“The conversation… lasted more than five minutes.”

Her last few words carried a sobbing tone, filled with an overwhelming sense of self-loathing.

“I’m so sorry… Sister.”

The smile on Bai Wanting’s face froze for a moment, but deep in her eyes, a flash of even fiercer ecstasy sparked!

It worked!

The hypnotic suggestion she had planted in Lin Qingya—to “subconsciously avoid everyone except her and keep interactions with others under five minutes”—was not just solidified.

It had become an ironclad rule etched into the depths of Lin Qingya’s soul!

The moment it was violated, her subconscious would immediately attack itself, flooding her with intense guilt and pain.

This was far more effective than any coercive method!

Perhaps… this approach might truly succeed!

Bai Wanting didn’t care about something as trivial as a teacher’s meeting.

In fact, she was inwardly thrilled to the point of madness.

But on the surface, she feigned a slight frown.

She reached out her index finger, gently tapping Lin Qingya’s nose with an intimate gesture, her tone carrying a perfectly measured hint of reproach.

“Oh? More than five minutes, huh…”

Her voice lingered, each word softly striking Lin Qingya’s fragile, sensitive nerves.

Lin Qingya’s trembling intensified, and crystalline tears welled up at the corners of her eyes—a physical reaction to the torment of her guilt.

“I’m sorry… Sister… I… I didn’t mean to…”

Seeing the girl on the verge of tears, Bai Wanting knew the timing was perfect.

Pushing further would not only be excessive but would also pain her own heart.

Her tone softened instantly, brimming with warmth and understanding.

“It’s okay, my little Qingya.”

She soothed gently, her fingertip delicately wiping away the tears at the corner of the girl’s eyes.

“The teacher calling you for a talk is a legitimate matter. That’s not your fault.”

“We’ll take it slow. I believe my little Qingya can do it—try to minimize contact with others in the future, alright?”

Her words were like a spring breeze, gently dispelling the shadows in Lin Qingya’s heart.

Receiving Bai Wanting’s affirmation and forgiveness, a clear trace of dependence and submission flickered in her vacant pupils.

She immediately nodded obediently, her voice eager and earnest. “Yes, Sister! I will! I absolutely won’t let you down again!”

“So good.”

Seeing Lin Qingya’s adorable yet pitiful expression, Bai Wanting’s heart nearly melted.

She leaned down, her warm lips gently pressing a kiss onto Lin Qingya’s smooth forehead.

“This is a reward for a good girl.”

The kiss was as soft as a feather.

But to Lin Qingya at that moment, it was like a bolt of lightning.

A scalding warmth spread from her forehead, rushing through her entire body.

Her cheeks flushed a captivating shade of red, the blush spreading from her face to her ears and even tinting her fair neck a soft pink.

Her breathing grew rapid and uneven.

This soft, dazed appearance was almost unfairly adorable.

Bai Wanting gazed with satisfaction at her masterpiece.

She loved seeing Lin Qingya so flustered and enchanted by her.

Her hand began to wander restlessly over Lin Qingya’s body once more.

This time, her fingertips glided slowly from the girl’s collarbone down to her arm, relishing the warmth and smoothness that captivated her.

Each touch caused Lin Qingya’s body to tremble faintly.

Bai Wanting leaned close to her ear, her warm breath grazing the girl’s sensitive earlobe, her voice dropping to a low, seductive whisper.

“As long as my adorable little Qingya is good, Sister will give you even more, even better rewards…”

“Like… this…”

Her fingertip lightly traced circles on Lin Qingya’s tender abdomen.

The tingling sensation shattered the last remnants of Lin Qingya’s rationality.

Overwhelmed by Bai Wanting’s touch, her body softened, her face flushed, and she couldn’t even form a complete sentence.

Her consciousness, submerged in the depths of hypnosis, was utterly drowned by this unfamiliar sensation.

Her voice, laced with a captivating sob, sounded especially enticing.

“Yes… Sister…”

“Qingya… Qingya will be the best…”

“Please… please reward Qingya more…”
