Chapter 56 – Leaving No Regrets
Night Star wrapped her arms around Luo Xi from behind.
Front to back embrace.
Night Star could feel the smooth, silky skin on Luo Xi’s back.
Luo Xi could feel the sensation of Night Star pressing against her as well.
The small, bouncy pudding in front was particularly elastic.
This mutual honesty embrace was new territory for Night Star and Luo Xi.
It was even more exhilarating than sleeping in the same bed.
Night Star rested her chin on Luo Xi’s fragrant shoulder, gently rubbing her face against Luo Xi’s side.
This level of cutesy behavior was irresistible to anyone who had feelings for Night Star.
Only the emotionless, blank loli Luo Xi remained unfazed.
She simply stretched out her hand to ruffle Night Star’s hair, skillfully handling her antics.
Even though they had barely started, Night Star couldn’t help but whine.
Her self-control was completely shot.
This only confirmed how highly she depended on Luo Xi.
Luo Xi really didn’t know how to reduce that dependency.
But of course, she wasn’t going to spoil Night Star’s mood at such a time.
After all, this was their last night together.
Within these final hours, Luo Xi wanted to fulfill any desire Night Star might have.
Leaving no regrets was the best approach.
Night Star quickly washed off the suds from both of them, moving the remaining snuggling time to the bathtub.
Splish splash—
Plenty of hot water overflowed from the large bathtub, clearly audible in the otherwise silent bathroom.
“Hmm~ soaking in a bath is so relaxing… If I couldn’t do this someday, I’d definitely be very upset…”
Night Star leaned her head against Luo Xi’s chest, feeling an incredibly comfortable softness.
Luo Xi held Night Star tightly in her arms, making herself the perfect seat, without a hint of complaint. She still wore her usual unemotional expression.
Night Star’s spirits were high.
Knowing that the Wish Princess was about to awaken already made her extremely happy.
Now having Luo Xi invite her for a bath only added to her joy.
Soaking comfortably in the tub, nestled in Luo Xi’s embrace, Night Star felt like singing a song to express her happiness.
She hadn’t been the bathroom’s lead singer in quite some time.
Night Star slightly opened her lips, letting out a beautiful melody.
“La la la~ la la la~”
No specific lyrics.
Just a spontaneous hum based on her mood.
Yet, the resulting song was quite pleasant, conveying clear emotions.
Happiness and bliss filled those notes.
Someone hearing a child-like voice express such joy might smile kindly.
Behind her, Luo Xi wasn’t smiling, but her eyes gleamed as she watched Night Star happily singing.
Was she actually happy?
Maybe, but her happiness wouldn’t last.
No matter how happy Night Star was now, she would eventually calm down and remember the deceptive process she was undergoing.
To some extent, what Luo Xi was doing seemed like deceiving her.
Building a virtual identity.
Defining basic emotional patterns.
Creating dependency over time.
Everything was fake.
Even the bliss Night Star now felt was just a crumbling illusion.
In the end, Luo Xi intended to destroy this happiness.
Turning her into an enemy.
The fabricated affection would vanish entirely.
This probably explained the result.
Closing her eyes, Luo Xi carefully read what was in Night Star’s heart.
In the next moment,
She opened her eyes, extending a hand to stroke Night Star’s rosy cheek, lightly scratching with cat-like movements.
Night Star paused her singing, becoming even happier under Luo Xi’s gentle teasing, elevating her singing to new heights.
There weren’t many nightingales as capable as her.
Yet, suddenly, Luo Xi’s hand moved, turning Night Star’s head.
Luo Xi leaned in, the singing abruptly stopped, silence falling in the bathroom.
“Mmm…”
Night Star’s huge eyes turned into tiny spirals of confusion, reddening from head to toe, her mind utterly chaotic.
Oh no!
Luo Xi kissed her!
What happened?
Why did Luo Xi make such a bold move?
Especially being so proactive!
Night Star’s heart began to wail.
Seemed like this was her first kiss with another girl.
Completely different from kissing herself!
That meant…
Luo Xi had claimed her first kiss!
Though this future version of her might have kissed Luo Xi countless times,
Her past self was a different story!
She was a pure, shy girl!
Finally parting lips.
Night Star touched her cherry lips, lost in thought.
Luo Xi showed no emotion, just licking her own lips, relishing the taste.
Even after such startling action, her expression remained unchanged.
Hardly recognizable as the one who just kissed Night Star forcefully.
“Mmm…”
Night Star’s cheeks burned like fiery clouds.
Her entire body sank until the warm water covered her head.
Bubbles floated up, illustrating the turmoil inside.
Avoiding Night Star from drowning, Luo Xi pulled her out of the water.
“What’s wrong?”
“I mean… kissing… It’s so intense… Why suddenly do something like this?”
Night Star was in mixed emotions.
She did want to taste Luo Xi’s lips, but just thinking about it was all.
If asked to act, it’d take her years.
Typical situation of daring to think and not act.
Who knew Luo Xi would be so proactive, initiating a kiss in the bath?
It was unexpected.
Without any warning at all.
At least give a heads-up before doing this.
She had missed out by not savoring it thoroughly.
In response to Night Star’s question, Luo Xi paused.
“It’s about… leaving no regrets.”
“Umm… What does that mean?”
Night Star didn’t quite get it.
Not leaving regrets sounded odd.
Even if Night Star went back in time to meet the three-year-ago Luo Xi, and developed a relationship leading to today, there would still be plenty of time for snuggling.
And this future Luo Xi could also have a Night Star who regained her memory, making their bond even stronger.
Why should there be any regret?
Or was Luo Xi enjoying tonight’s playtime with the limited-time Night Star too much?
Once Night Star returned to her normal self, her fun would end.
Would that be something to be sad about?
Is this what she meant?
