Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 200

“Nina?” Yuri slowed down on the stairs when she saw Nina seated right outside her room. She and Yugi furrowed their brows, watching Nina look up at them. “What are you doing outside your room with your door open?” 

Yugi snorted. “Don’t tell me you can’t take your room anymore? So, you’d rather stay out of your 

room?” 

“Mhm.” Nina nodded and didn’t deny it, making Yugi frown. However, Yuri was more 

open–minded than her brother. 

“Nina, is there’s something wrong?” 

Nina shook her head and smiled at her. “Everything is okay. 

“Then, why are you here…?” Yuri’s eyes glossed over to the notes and study materials on the floor with Nina. “Are you studying outside? Can’t study inside?” 

“I can, but I just want to study outside my room.” Nina turned her head to the open door of her room, her lips curling up. “I’m looking at it so I can remind myself of what I’m going to focus on in the summer. 

“Huh?” Yuri’s brows rose while Nina looked back at her. “I saw a glimpse of your room and Yugi’s. Compared to mine, they look cute. I want to make my room aesthetically pleasing to the eye. So I’m taking a good look at it before that.” 

Was it a surprise? 

It would be a lie if Yuri said she wasn’t. However, hearing this from Nina brought this bubble of excitement to her heart. 

“Nina, that’s a great idea!” said Yuri, jumping to Nina’s side. “Do you know that our rooms look like that at first?” 

Surprise washed over Nina’s face. “Really?” 

“Mhm!” 

“Hah! Yuri, don’t lie!” Yugi snorted. “What do you mean, it looks like her room? I would love to have her room if this was before! Her room is ten times better than ours years ago!” 

The corners of Yuri’s lips stretched. “Well, Yugi is right. Our rooms before are just one with a divider. 

Nina slowly furrowed her brows, a little surprised at this. “You didn’t have rooms before?” 

“We’re really struggling back then. Thanks to Penny, we sort of resolved our financial problems,” Yuri chuckled. “But well, even when we had our rooms, it’s bare at first. Yugi, Penny, and I have to save up our allowances to make them as it is.” 

“Ohh…” Nina’s lips formed an o–shape. “How long did you save up?”

“For a year or maybe a year and a few more months. We had to do some side gigs too, so that helped us a lot. Yuri grinned proudly. “We can start slow, Nina. If you need anything, Yugi and I will help you!” 

Nina pursed her lips as reluctance shone in her eyes. Seeing this, Yuri’s excited grin faded. 

“Right.” Yuri awkwardly chuckled. “I’m sorry. You might not want help. I got a little excited and got ahead of myself.” 

“Ah, no, it’s not like that.” Nina panicked. “I’m just a little embarrassed, but if you are willing to help me, then I’d love to. I really need it.” 

Slowly, Yuri’s lips stretched from ear to ear until her eyes squinted. “Of course! Yugi and I can help with this one!” 

“What? Me? No way I’m helping that girl!” Yugi refused adamantly, only to see Yuri give him a quick death glare before she smiled like an angel again. 

“That’s his means of saying yes,” Yuri chuckled, facing Nina again. “Then we now have a plan for our summer break! I’ll let Mom know, so she doesn’t think of anything else.” 

“Mhm!” Nina nodded and set her attention back to the open door of her bedroom. She could already imagine how busy her summer break would be this year. 

“Anyway, Nina, how’s your exam?” 

Yuri’s question stole Nina’s attention. 

“Well Thinking about it, she couldn’t help but smile. “It’s bad.” 

“Huh?” 

“The questions in the exams are very hard and I got too little time to study, explained Nina, sparing them the shameful details of why she couldn’t review properly before the exam. One reason was because of the bullying, but the main reason was because Nina spent a lot of energy scheming behind Penny. 

It only proved that it was truly a loss. 

Yuri hummed and pressed her lips. “Do you need a study buddy?” 

“Hmm?” 

“It’s also our exam week, explained Yuri. “Even though we’re not really pressured to hit high grades, we also do not want to be bottom feeders. Don’t worry. Penny usually studies with me in the past. 

Or more like, she often makes me ask questions, and she answers them. Do you want to 

give that a try?” 

For a moment, Nina could only stare at Yuri and felt a little bitter in her heart. Initially, she didn’t like Yuri and often thought the latter was jealous of her. Turned out Yuri was a very considerate person. Nina felt ashamed. 

“Yes,” Nina whispered with a smile. “If you don’t mind, then I’ll take you up on your offer.” 

“Hehe. No problem.” Yuri smiled back at her warmly.

While the two exchanged warm and appreciative smiles, they heard Yugi’s door slam closed. They flinched and intuitively set their eyes on Yugi’s bedroom.
