Chapter 100: Let’s Soak in the Hot Spring Together

“Whoa—”

The man pulled the reins tight. The muscles under the horse’s belly tightened, and its front hooves stamped on the grass twice before it came to a steady stop in the shade of a tree.

He let go of the beauty in his arms, swung his long leg over, and landed nimbly on the ground. The few women who had been waiting by the side of the racecourse immediately surrounded him. One of them handed him a neatly folded hot towel.

Qin Wen took the towel, wiped the sweat from his face, and then took the hot tea handed to him by a maid and drank it all in one go. The warm tea slid down his throat, and he squinted his eyes in pleasure.

“What has my little brother been doing all morning?” He handed the empty teacup back and asked casually.

“To answer the young master, the second young master has been riding with that little sister Tang he brought back all morning.”

“Not bad, he knows how to show off in front of a female companion. Tsk, going to college has really taught him a few things,” Qin Wen said with a laugh and a curse, and then took another cup of freshly poured tea.

Hearing this, the female servant who had just spoken had a slightly unnatural expression on her face. After a moment’s hesitation, she spoke again to explain, “Young master, it wasn’t the second young master who was riding with that little sister Tang. It was… it was little sister Tang who was riding with the second young master.”

“Pfft!”

A mouthful of water shot out, splashing far away. Qin Wen choked violently, his shoulders trembling from the coughing.

At the same time, white steam was rising.

The hot air spread over the edge of the warm jade-paved hot spring pool, making the surrounding scenery hazy and unclear.

The young man with ice-blue pupils was half-immersed in the warm spring water, his black hair wet and clinging to the side of his neck. A few water droplets slid down his well-defined jawline and disappeared into the hollow of his collarbone.

He leaned lazily against the edge of the pool, one arm resting on the smooth stone edge, while the other was stretched out to reach for the celadon teacup on the tatami mat by the shore.

He drank the tea in the cup. The slightly astringent taste lingered on his tongue. After it had dissipated, it brought a hint of sweetness.

He had been riding for the whole morning. Although he wasn’t the one in charge of riding, just explaining for the whole morning had made his mouth dry.

Now, lying in the hot spring to soothe his muscles and drinking a good cup of tea was no less than drinking a cup of iced lemonade during a midsummer day’s military training.

One word, comfortable!

“Wuhu! Hot spring!!”

“I’m coming!”

The white mist was suddenly and forcefully dispelled. A beautiful figure rushed over excitedly, jumped up with a look of joy, and landed in the water with a “splash.” The water splashed everywhere, even on Qin Liang’s face!

Qin Liang raised his hand to wipe the water from his face. Only then did he get a clear look at the person before him. She was thin where she should be thin, and plump where she should be plump. She was tall, and her graceful female figure was on full display.

The white mist enveloped her, as if in a dream, and it also highlighted her exquisite, beautiful, and familiar face.

“Hi! Ah Liang!!!”

“I’m here for a hot spring bath too.”

Tang Yunle waved familiarly, her tone light and cheerful.

The water splashed lightly by her legs, creating a small whirlpool, and then it dispersed.

“Pfft!”

A mouthful of tea sprayed directly onto his face. The young man’s ice-blue eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at her.

“What are you doing here?!”

“You’re here for a hot spring bath, so of course I’m here for a hot spring bath too.”

“Besides, I’ve been riding my bike all morning. My muscles are also sore. Just in time to try this hot spring and see if it’s as magical as they say online.”

As she spoke, the girl stood up from the hot spring pool, stretched her arms and legs, and did a few stretching exercises.

Crystal clear water droplets fell from her hair and slid into her chest. Her fair and smooth skin was exposed to the air, and because of the hot spring, it had a slight flush.

Her fair calves dangled in the water, the ripples sparkling, a mesmerizing beauty.

In the young man’s field of vision, spring was in the air, full of temptation.

Qin Liang was in a daze for a moment, then he abruptly turned his head and looked away.

Seeing this, Tang Yunle patted the water in dissatisfaction and even kicked him lightly with her foot. “What’s wrong? Am I an ugly monster? You’re not even willing to look at me? Or are you disgusted with me? Do you think a commoner like me is not worthy of sharing a hot spring with a Celestial Dragon like you?”

‘At least I took you for a bike ride all morning. Even if there’s no credit, there’s still hard work.’

Qin Liang opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but he didn’t know where to start.

Could Tang Yunle be in the hot spring?

Of course she could! He had brought her back. She was a guest, so naturally she should enjoy the highest treatment of the host.

Could Tang Yunle be in the same hot spring as him?

If it were in the original world, before Tang Yunle had been gender-bent, of course she could.

But now,…

His peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the spring scenery under the water. Qin Liang swallowed, and then quickly looked away.

The girl was carefree, not at all concerned that her body was being seen, without any of the normal distinction between men and women.

If Qin Liang had his phone in his hand right now, he would definitely post a bounty thread:

“Online, waiting! Urgent!! My good brother has no sense of the distinction between men and women after he was gender-bent! What should I do!”

Qin Liang’s swallowing motion fell into Tang Yunle’s eyes. She slightly narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a half-smile. “Oh! I get it. You kid see me as a woman.”

“Tsk~”

The girl pouted.

‘I see you as a brother, but you see me as a girl. Ah Liang, you’ve disappointed me so much~~~’

Qin Liang’s throat bobbed, and he struggled to speak.

This posture made it impossible to ignore.

Tang Yunle’s lips curled up slightly, and she said with a smile, “What? Bro, are you afraid I’ll eat you?”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, why don’t you fight back? Try pinning me against the wall of the hot spring pool. I promise I won’t struggle.”

“I recently peeked at a few of the transformation novels you’ve collected. In one of them, the male protagonist r*pes the female protagonist in a hot spring.”

Small beads of sweat appeared on the young man’s forehead.

Tang Yunle could say such things without any burden, and she could do such provocative things.

One, she was a ts-girl herself, and her concept of the distinction between men and women was very shallow. Two, after getting along for so long, she also understood his character. In small matters, his little head might control his big head, but in big matters, he would never do something like forcing himself on his good brother.

But he couldn’t.

He really had a trace of an unspeakable feeling for Tang Yunle in his heart, which could be understood as the love between a man and a woman.

Simply put, Tang Yunle didn’t see herself as a woman and could tease him freely, but he couldn’t completely see Tang Yunle as a normal friend.

“Yo~”

“You’ve got a boner. So you’re not impotent.”

“Come, let me grab it.”

As she spoke, completely ignoring the young man’s embarrassment, she swung her legs and approached without any restraint, her full breasts even pressing against the young man’s arm.

The girl supported herself with both hands on either side of Qin Liang, trapping him in the space between herself and the wall of the hot spring pool.

Her beautiful and exquisite face got closer and closer to him, so close that he could clearly feel her exhaled breath. Her clear and bright eyes reflected his ice-blue pupils.

This posture… was too alluring!

“Hiss~ Ah Le…”
