### Chapter 8: Sleep Together
The dark night descended.
Night Star returned to her temporary hut.
She didn’t know who originally lived there, but the room’s decoration was exactly the same as hers.
What a strange coincidence.
This just goes to show how magical the stars really are; truly scary stuff.
Night Star had already eaten dinner outside.
Now it’s time for a bath.
Unfortunately, Night Lan is not here, so Night Star has to take a bath by herself.
In the bathroom:
Night Star sat in the bathtub, her smooth, fair body submerged in warm water.
Splish splash.
The ripples of water swayed.
Night Star bent her tender thighs and hugged her knees.
Then she sank further down until only her nose and half her face were above the water. Her clear eyes stared blankly ahead, like she was exhaling to get rid of her worries.
“Hmm… what should I do next…”
Next, Night Star lifted her head, took a deep breath, hugged her knees, and curled up tightly, completely submerging under the water.
The warm water squeezed around her, isolating her from the outside world, much like being snuggled up in a cozy blanket during winter.
“Pfff… pfff…”
Breaking the surface, Night Star greedily breathed in the air.
Her silvery hair, soaked with water, stuck to her fair, smooth face.
In the foggy air, Night Star sat up straight, revealing her delicate collarbone.
“Maybe I’ll let things flow naturally.”
After muttering this, Night Star dried off with a towel and put on her pajamas.
For now, she didn’t dare wander around too much.
After all, a supernova star eclipse might be happening soon.
Night Star definitely doesn’t want to be anywhere near that.
All she needs to do is go to the park in the afternoon every day to watch Lianhua perform puppet shows.
As for the rest, she can leave that to the reliable Night Watchers.
She’s just a lowly scamp who can’t even control the stars.
But she still needs to think about it.
How is she supposed to go back?
The Wish Machine brought her to this timeline, so she can’t stay here forever, right?
Thinking back, when White Fish’s story ended, it ended after the condition for her recovery was met.
Which means once you fulfill your wish.
So maybe if she fulfills the wish she made before going to sleep, she can go back?
Yeah, that sounds about right.
This time, her wish is to fix Lianhua’s puppets, so she just needs to keep them in good condition.
But puppets break for a reason, so she needs to figure out why they break first.
“Next, I just need to make friends with Lianhua, then visit her house, become inseparable, and eventually we can just cuddle!”
“Ah, wait, where did this twisted idea come from?”
Night Star wiped away her imaginary saliva, her expression becoming serious.
But what she said was true.
First, she needs to befriend Lianhua.
Night Star isn’t good at making friends, but with effort, it shouldn’t be a problem.
If worse comes to worst, she can just hold Lianhua and shout “I want to be your friend!” like she was told by Lan Feng Su Yu.
Of course, that’s only if Night Star can actually bring herself to do it, because it’s pretty embarrassing.
…
At the Night Watcher Base.
Night Lan is also fresh and clean, sitting on the bed in the pajamas Lan Feng Su Yu helped her buy.
Night Lan’s room is nice and comfortable, almost feeling like a luxury suite in a fancy hotel.
It would be even better if she could live alone.
She looked over at a nearby slender figure, her eyes filled with resentment.
“Why does Lan Feng Su Yu have to live with me!?”
“Mm…”
Lan Feng Su Yu noticed Night Lan’s expression and asked, “Night Lan, something wrong?”
“Why do you have to live with me…?”
“Because my mission is to look after you. It was given to me by the boss, so I have to follow through.”
Looks like Yao Can is very concerned about this extraordinary star holder, Night Lan.
To keep her safe, Lan Feng Su Yu had to personally look after her.
“Since we’re both girls, why is it a problem for us to live together?”
“Mmm… seems not a problem…”
“So there you go.” Lan Feng Su Yu smiled nicely.
Night Lan sat on the bed, extremely conflicted, starting to imagine all sorts of nonsense.
Even though it looks fine on the surface, in Night Lan’s eyes, it’s a big deal!
Sure, she looks like a girl, but…
Sigh, might as well accept it.
After all, they’ve lived together for so many days, so she should be experienced enough. This is just a simple practice!
“Muh hmm~”
Night Lan instantly felt less nervous, looking bravely at Lan Feng Su Yu.
Then she saw this scene:
Lan Feng Su Yu confidently stripped off her outfit, changing into a light blue nightgown, nearly see-through like silk gauze, hugging her curvaceous figure. Under the glow of the lights, it shimmered brilliantly.
After changing into her nightgown, she walked over and sat on the bed, her voluptuous bottom sinking into the soft white mattress.
Tap tap tap!
Night Lan’s heart almost stopped, grabbing the covers and retreating to the corner of the bed. Her cheeks turned red, spreading even to her ears.
“You… you…”
Lan Feng Su Yu curiously looked at her expression, her golden eyes slightly puzzled.
“Hmm? Are you blushing?” She couldn’t help but laugh, looking like a little devil to Night Lan.
Lan Feng Su Yu gently played with her pink hair, crawling towards her like a puppy, breathing softly.
“We’re both girls here, right?”
“Gwahh…”
Night Lan’s eyes began spinning like a mosquito, steam coming out of her head.
Her mind was in chaos, like a herd of wild deer running amok.
Finally, Night Lan stood up.
“Roa! Roa! Roa!!”
With shameful fury, Night Lan shouted these embarrassing words and ran into the bathroom as fast as she could.
Lan Feng Su Yu stood there, confused.
“Does this kid blush so easily? But why is she blushing?”
Can’t understand, really can’t understand.
In the bathroom:
Night Lan buried her face in her hands, squatting on the floor.
Even though she’s seen a lot of risqué pictures, that doesn’t mean she’s experienced in real life.
When an adorable, seductive girl crawls up to her like a puppy, she can hardly resist!
Non-sense?
Well, that’s settled then.
Calmly, Night Lan started mumbling.
“She’s so naive, I guess I was wrong. ‘Powder’ Black sure lives up to its reputation. Naive Black, yeah…”
After that, Night Lan suddenly realized there was only one bed in the room.
One bed…
One.
Oh no!
Night Lan’s expression changed, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
If there’s only one bed, wouldn’t they be sharing it tonight?
cr*p! Ji!
