Chapter 343: Trampling Him, Heh Heh, I’m Pretty Awesome…
With that thought, Li Qing Xue hurriedly shook her head.
“What’s wrong?” Lin Wan Ning noticed Li Qing Xue suddenly shaking her head, so she quietly asked.
“Nothing.” Li Qing Xue suddenly looked up at Lin Wan Ning with a smile, then pinched her cheek: “You’re so flirtatious.”
Lin Wan Ning blinked, somewhat lost in Li Qing Xue’s train of thought.
Luckily, she already knew that Shen Meng Jie and Ye Liang Chen definitely had a connection. When the time comes, she’d tell her brother about it.
Ye Liang Chen is really both stupid and malicious, and Shen Meng Jie’s eyes when she looks at her brother—ugh, so annoying…
Seeing Lin Wan Ning’s puzzled look, Li Qing Xue grew even more amused. Ah, the feeling of holding a secret all to oneself—so satisfying!
She still doesn’t know she already knows about the good deeds she did with Dragon Brother.
Hmph! Dragon Brother, you’re doomed now. How dare you do something that disloyal to Ah Ying behind her back?
Hmph! You used to bully me, but this time, I’ll stomp on your face and make you kneel and lick me!
Wait, wait—this is all to avenge Ah Ying. Gotta step on him a couple more times later!
Suddenly, her head was poked.
Snapped out of her thoughts, Li Qing Xue looked at Lin Wan Ning, who was poking her forehead with a finger.
“Why are you smiling so silly?”
Lin Wan Ning still looked confused. Just now she was fine, but in a blink, she was spaced out, lost in a goofy grin.
Li Qing Xue snorted twice, thinking, silly woman, I already have your little secret in my pocket.
Taking a deep breath, she crossed her arms and gazed at Lin Wan Ning with a provocatively playful look: “I’m thirsty. Buy me some fruit tea.”
Seeing Li Qing Xue’s inexplicably proud and petty expression, Lin Wan Ning’s lips curved slightly: “You wanna drink fruit tea, huh? Just now you said I was flirtatious…”
Then she started tickling Li Qing Xue: “See, aren’t you gonna tell me? Still not telling?”
Li Qing Xue, furious, realized she already had her little secret, and this plastic sister still dared to attack her—guess she’s gotta teach her a lesson.
In the end, Li Qing Xue gained the upper hand.
After all, just recently, Lin Wan Ning’s energy had been drained dry, so she was naturally no match for Li Qing Xue.
“Oh dear, I was wrong! I’ll buy you the fruit tea—I’ll go get it right now! Please forgive me…”
Watching Lin Wan Ning beg for mercy, Li Qing Xue finally let her go, straightening her waist and placing her hands on her hips, feeling incredibly awesome.
Lin Wan Ning, exhausted from being tickled, took a deep breath and wandered around with Li Qing Xue.
Not only did they buy fruit tea, but they also snacked on some local street food.
“Don’t go back tonight.” Today was Friday, and tomorrow was a day off, so Lin Wan Ning said.
Li Qing Xue munching snacks and drinking fruit tea agreed.
Then her bright eyes subtly shifted as she pointed at a nearby inn: “Let’s stay there.”
Seeing it was that inn, Lin Wan Ning subconsciously said: “That one’s bad, let’s stay somewhere else.”
Watching Lin Wan Ning look flustered for a moment, Li Qing Xue found it hilarious.
She deliberately asked: “Have you stayed there? How do you know it’s bad?”
Lin Wan Ning suddenly didn’t know what to say.
The music academy was right next door; she couldn’t exactly say she wasn’t used to dorms and had stayed at that inn before, right?
Watching Li Qing Xue head toward that inn, she hesitated—she had just checked into a room with Dragon Brother, and the front desk staff recognized her… If she went over now, Qing Xue might find out about some things.
Finally, she blushed and said, “I… I’ve stayed there with him, so I know it’s bad.”
“He?” Li Qing Xue raised an eyebrow and chuckled. “Your boyfriend?”
Lin Wan Ning hesitated for a moment, then shook her head: “Not… not yet…”
Hearing that, Li Qing Xue was genuinely a bit surprised.
She thought Lin Wan Ning would use her boyfriend as an excuse, but she didn’t…
Is it because Dragon Brother is Hu Yu Ying’s boyfriend?
But she already did that kind of thing behind Hu Yu Ying’s back with Dragon Brother…
Seeing her tangled and complicated expression, Li Qing Xue softly smiled: “Then let’s go to another inn for room.”
Lin Wan Ning made no effort to speak; she just stayed silent.
Li Qing Xue thought she was joking, maybe went a bit too far.
She opened her mouth to say something to ease the mood.
But Lin Wan Ning spoke first: “Do you think I’m a bad woman?”
Li Qing Xue paused: “Y-You, why would you say that?”
Lin Wan Ning’s face was cold as she forced out a strained smile, recalling what her brother had said. Her voice grew heavier: “I did something wrong, but I’ve never regretted it. I just… I’m really scared of losing you guys, my friends.”
Her brother couldn’t bear to hide Ah Ying anymore; he wanted to confess everything, take all the blame on himself.
But how could that be? The initial mistake was hers; how could she let her brother bear a burden that wasn’t his?
She’d made up her mind—if her brother told the truth, she would reveal everything. She was the one who seduced him; she pushed him into making mistakes…
It was simply fleeting happiness stolen away. Her brother had once liked her, and she was content with that.
But sadly, there was no remaining beauty or nostalgia now.
A sword of Damocles hung over her head, uncertain when it would fall.
“It’s nothing. Let’s go. Tonight, do you want to take a bath? I’ll keep you company,” Lin Wan Ning smiled.
“Then I’ll help you scrub.”
“Eh~” Lin Wan Ning pretend-gasped with mock disgust: “I don’t want that! You’re definitely going to take advantage of me during the bath.”
“Still complaining about me? The more you dislike me, the more I wanna wash you.”
They started teasing each other again: “Should we call Hu Yu Ying and invite her to join us?”
Li Qing Xue smiled: “It’s been ages since we’ve all hung out together, I miss it.”
“Yeah, it’s been two weeks. We should find some time to spend with each other,” Li Qing Xue sighed and grabbed her phone: “Should I give her a call?”
“Aren’t you worried Dragon Brother might get jealous?”
“Dragon Brother isn’t that petty, right? Does he even care if women get jealous?”
“Well, you’re a woman too.”
“Who knows?” Li Qing Xue played mischievously. “Once I taste Dragon Brother, I might turn into a woman myself.”
Heh heh, then I’ll punish Dragon Brother properly—daring to do things behind Ah Ying’s back!
Trample him underfoot!
Heh heh, I’m pretty awesome…
