“Whew, finally got all these things sorted out.”
Ruan Zhixian stood before the packed wardrobe, wiping the sweat from her forehead, then clapped her hands with satisfaction.
Lately, she had been wearing the clothes Lingling bought for her. Although those outfits were quite nice, she still found herself missing her own little dresses…
Wait, come to think of it, why does Lingling’s family have so many clothes in my size?
The girl’s mind began to turn slowly.
Ah, no, Lingling is yandere after all, and she likes me so much—it’s probably normal for her to know my size and prepare clothes in advance……
The answer came quickly.
It’s all because Lingling is always so cute around me, making me forget that she’s got that yandere side…
The girl started secretly making excuses for herself.
But well, this kind of yandere seems pretty reliable too~
Lingling prepares so many things in advance—see, she’s so thoughtful and cares about me!
The optimistic girl smiled happily to herself.
“Zhixian, I’ve already moved all your art supplies into the empty room in the apartment. Take a look and see if you want to rearrange anything~”
Su Lingqing’s crisp, pleasant voice drifted from outside the room.
“Okay~ Coming~”
The blonde girl took light steps and walked toward Lingqing’s direction.
Hmm… Thinking back, quite a lot has happened today……
In the steam-filled bathroom, Su Ling held her knees, which had a faint pink tint, sitting in the pristine bathtub.
Her long black hair was soaked, some strands clinging to her smooth shoulders and collarbones, while others floated beneath the water like seaweed.
Yesterday, she had gone to apologize to Zhixian with that kind of resolve, but unexpectedly, she was forgiven right away—and moreover…
Moreover, she even said…… that she liked me…
The black-haired girl buried the lower half of her delicate face under the water, blowing bubbles, her skin flushed red from the steam.
Even though I told her how despicable my love is; how terrifying my possessiveness can be…
But she still chooses to like me…
(I told you, no matter what kind of Su Ling you are, I really like you.)
The girl lifted her fingertips, slightly wrinkled from the water, and gently stirred the milky bubbles on the surface, a blissful smile tugging at her lips.
And, and today she was so close to me the whole time! Whether in front of Tang Jin’er or at the company with everyone else, she was so close to me!
She would accompany me to work, call me by intimate nicknames, pull me home, and even gave me the most treasured painting……
Zhixian really seems to like me…
Water droplets fell from Su Ling’s hair tips, breaking the calm water surface and sending out tiny ripples, just like the girl’s somewhat insecure affection—calm and just right on the surface, but inside already stirred by each enthusiastic response from her beloved, creating layers upon layers of tender waves that refused to settle.
Late at night, the moonlight poured softly through the curtains, draping the room in a gentle silver veil.
Two girls lay side by side on the soft bed, sharing the same thin blanket, their breathing gradually lengthening and syncing.
Their hair, one golden, one black, spread across the pillows, strands unintentionally intertwining.
Suddenly, the blonde girl quietly opened her eyes and turned her head.
In the darkness, a pair of sparkling phoenix eyes were watching her too.
“Lingling, you’re not asleep yet either?”
“Ahaha, yeah Zhixian, why are you still awake tonight?”
Su Ling, who always waited for Ruan Zhixian to fall asleep first and then held her as she slept, replied sheepishly.
“Mm, kind of, can’t sleep..”
The blonde girl answered softly, her tone unlike her usual lively self.
“Zhixian, is something bothering you?”
Su Ling quickly noticed the unusual tone.
“Mm, sort of…”
Ruan Zhixian shifted her body, moving a little closer to Su Ling.
Wait, wait, wait! Why is Zhixian suddenly so close?
And she can’t sleep late at night—could it be…
Su Ling’s face instantly flushed.
Could it be that Zhixian wants to take this opportunity to play some adult games with me?!
Having just confirmed the other really likes her, Su Ling’s heart started pounding wildly.
Maybe it’s because I acted a bit distrustful toward Zhixian today, so she wants me to trust her love more, and that’s why she’s acting like this tonight?!
Although I’m very willing to play games with Zhixian, but, but I haven’t prepared anything yet! My winning lingerie, my winning perfume, my……
Ruan Zhixian’s delicate face came closer and closer.
Su Ling’s reply was soft, shy, and filled with anticipation.
The black-haired girl nervously closed her eyes.
“I… I’m still a little worried about Mom……”
Ruan Zhixian rested her fluffy head on Su Ling’s graceful neck, leaning on her and sighing softly.
“Huh???”
Su Ling opened her eyes, a little confused, then hastily reached out to stroke the girl’s smooth back.
“Um, Zhixian, you……”
The blonde girl slightly lifted her head, worry coloring her smiling peach blossom eyes.
“Lingling, you don’t know, although Mom always acts like she can handle everything and never lets me worry about the company, I actually know she’s under a lot of pressure……”
“Mm.”
Thinking back on Madam Ruan’s legendary experiences over the years, Su Ling nodded in agreement.
“This time she went on a long trip but wouldn’t explain what’s going on, so that must mean it’s really serious…”
“Even though Mom said in her letter she’d handle everything, I know it won’t be that easy…… after all, I’m not really an idiot……”
After saying this, Ruan Zhixian lowered her eyelids and buried herself again in Su Ling’s somewhat firm embrace.
“Then, Zhixian, do you want to consider using the communicator to contact Madam Ruan?”
Su Ling gently patted the girl’s back and raised the suggestion again.
“Still no……”
After a short silence, Ruan Zhixian shook her head once more.
“Mom has her own things to handle. I can’t just disrupt her plans because I miss her. I’ll wait until there’s really something going on before contacting her.”
“Mm.”
Su Ling continued patting the girl’s back while reaching up to stroke her hair.
“Zhixian, your mother is a formidable person. I believe that no matter what she’s doing or planning, Madam Ruan will ultimately be able to turn danger into safety.”
“Mm.”
Ruan Zhixian rubbed against the black-haired girl’s long neck, tightening her arms around Su Ling’s waist and holding her even closer.
