Girls in a Matriarchal World Are Just Too Scary-Chapter 19 - Misunderstanding
The sun shone brightly over Tian Shui Peak, where magic made flowers bloom all year. To ordinary people, it looked like heaven.
Xiao Wu stood outside, staring at the place she had lived for years. She hesitated, not wanting to go inside.
"After that embarrassing moment with Junior Brother, how can I face him? But I can't avoid him forever. I have to clear things up."
Taking a deep breath, she stepped forward.
That night’s accident—seeing a different side of Junior Brother—had made her heart race like a scared rabbit. She had stayed away for days.
But now, she misses him too much. Today, she would fix the misunderstanding.
"I have to explain and apologize properly."
It was her fault for entering his room without knocking. But who would have guessed he’d be lying on the floor, doing that? At least he could have done it on the bed—with the door closed!
"Maybe he’s grown up and has... certain needs he can't control."
She thought about how he had been acting lately. Before, he only looked at her when he wanted her to buy him something expensive. But now, his eyes kept staring at her body, making her blush.
"Who was he thinking about that day? Could it be... me?"
Her breathing quickened at the thought.
“No, what am I thinking? I’m here to apologize!”
Xiao Wu slapped her burning cheeks, strode to his door, took another deep breath, and knocked lightly.
Knock, knock, knock!
Footsteps sounded inside, and the door opened—but it wasn’t him.
“You’re…?”
Xiao Wu’s eyes narrowed suspiciously. She hadn’t gone to the wrong door, had she? This was Junior Brother’s room—why was a strange girl here?
“Mm…”
Lin Qingyue rubbed her sleepy eyes, feeling confused. Who was this person?
Wait!
She suddenly remembered—it was the senior sister from that argument the other day. That meant she must be...
“Eldest Senior Sister, hello! Do you need something?”
“Eldest Senior Sister?”
Xiao Wu frowned, surprised by the title.
Lin Qingyue smiled. “I’m Master’s newest disciple. This is our first time meeting.”
Oh! Now Xiao Wu remembered. Master had mentioned a new junior sister recently. So, this was her.
“Nice to meet you, Junior Sister.”
Master Bai Shuixin always taught them to be kind and support each other. If Lin Qingyue was now part of their sect, she was family.
But…
“Why are you coming out of Junior Brother’s room looking so tired?”
Xiao Wu’s expression changed as she thought about it.
Junior Brother was at that age. She had already caught him doing something embarrassing a few days ago, proving he had certain... urges.
And now, he had spent the night alone in a room with the new girl—who looked exhausted.
It was hard not to get the wrong idea.

Xiao Wu asked delicately, “Didn’t sleep last night, Junior Sister? Did you… do something with him?”
“Yeah, Senior Brother kept me at it all night—no sleeping till we finished. I’m still beat…”
Lin Qingyue blinked drowsily, answering in a haze.
But her words made Xiao Wu’s breath hitch, her chest heaving.
Had she just heard something wild?
Kept at it all night! No sleep till they were done!
“Explain yourself!”
Xiao Wu gritted her teeth. No way! It couldn’t be!
It wasn’t what she thought!
Still foggy, Lin Qingyue rubbed her sore eyes. “I kept messing up, so we went late. I passed out when I couldn’t take it anymore. Senior Brother’s too intense—kinda scary…”
She shifted her legs uncomfortably—too many ‘zheng’ characters from sloppy studying.
But to Xiao Wu, that little move meant something else entirely.
Too intense, scary—now her legs were trembling!
“Wahhh!!”
With a quick leap of imagination, Xiao Wu felt awful!
Her teeth clamped her lip, a whimper escaping. She’d only stepped out for a few days—how had this happened?!
Junior Brother, taken by some newbie—it was a bolt from the blue.
Meanwhile, Su Yan was mid-dream when chatter woke him. He dressed and stepped out.
“Huh? Senior Sister, you’re back? What’s the talk about?”
“You’re just in time! Tell me what happened last night—what’d you two do?!”
Xiao Wu snapped, fuming.
Su Yan blinked, startled. Why was Senior Sister so mad?
She remembered what she’d heard, and Su Yan’s jaw dropped.
“No way, that’s ridiculous!”
He shot Lin Qingyue an exasperated look. It was just basic reading—how’d she twist it into that? He started to explain to Xiao Wu, but the system popped up.
[Option 1: Deepen Senior Sister’s misunderstanding—say you and Junior Sister had a wild night, then get cozy with Junior Sister right in front of her. (Reward: Breakthrough to Late Foundation Establishment)]
[Option 2: Let actions speak—get cozy with Junior Sister right away. (Reward: Random Skill Point)]
[Option 3: Deny everything and clear it up. (Reward: Spiritual Power +3)]
A skill point reward this time!
Su Yan’s eyes widened. He was tempted, but to avoid trouble, he picked three.
“Senior Sister, don’t misunderstand. Here’s what really happened…”
After hearing the full story, Xiao Wu was unsure.
“So, you studied until midnight, and since it was late, you just slept in the same room?”
Su Yan nodded. “Yes, but I slept on the bed, and she slept at the desk. Nothing happened.”
“Is that true?” Xiao Wu asked, turning to Lin Qingyue.
By now, Lin Qingyue was fully awake. She realized what she had said earlier and blushed, her face turning red with embarrassment.
“Senior Brother is telling the truth,” she said softly.
Xiao Wu’s face stayed serious. Their words made sense, but Lin Qingyue’s shy expression was suspicious. If nothing happened, why was she blushing?
Thinking the worst, Xiao Wu stepped closer to Lin Qingyue, leaned in, and sniffed her neck.
