Oh~ he actually ran away.
Tang Yunle looked at the young man’s back as he rushed out of the hot spring, wrapped in a towel, and disappeared in the white mist in an instant. She couldn’t help but pout.
“What are you so afraid of? I wasn’t really going to do anything.”
“I was just playing around.”
She had just wanted to tease Qin Liang a little. Who would have thought that Qin Liang was so innocent that he would just run away?
“Innocence is good. This kind of innocent boy is the easiest to cheat money from.”
“Otherwise, how would my sister and I achieve a class leap? If hard work could really make money, the mules in the village would be the richest people in the world.”
The white mist curled upwards, dyeing the surroundings a hazy white, as if in a dream. At this time, a light and sweet female voice came from the depths of the mist, through the dense steam. You could vaguely see that person stretching, her figure graceful and slender.
Tang Yunle swung her legs and swam forward a little before she could get a clear look at the figure in the white mist.
The girl was sitting by the side of the hot spring pool.
She hadn’t entered the water, but had just dipped her calves in, leisurely kicking the water and playing.
This girl who had suddenly appeared was very beautiful. The moon-white silk bathrobe clung to her body, outlining her graceful curves. She looked a few years younger than Tang Yunle.
Her long, dark hair was wet and fell to her waist. Unlike the previous few times, this time, it was as if she had re-sculpted her face. Her features were fifty percent similar to Tang Yunle’s, as if she were the female version of Tang Yunle in her first year of high school.
In the hot spring, the two girls faced each other from a distance.
One girl was naked, the other was draped in a towel. Their dark black beautiful eyes and star-like eyes met in the steam. They were a pair of absolute beauties.
Only—
“Am I dreaming again?” Tang Yunle frowned, as if analyzing to herself.
“Did I fall asleep in the hot spring?”
“Then hurry up and leave. I don’t want to drown in the hot spring.”
After speaking, she closed her eyes, waiting to wake up from her dream.
The past few times she had communicated with Tang Yunke had all been in dreams. Sometimes, it was clearly a dream…
“Sister, this is not a dream.”
A helpless female voice sounded.
Tang Yunle’s eyes flew open, and she looked over in surprise.
“I didn’t pull you into a dream. I came to the world you are in now.”
Tang Yunke lightly tapped the surface of the water with her fingertip, creating circles of shallow ripples. The hem of her moon-white bathrobe was slightly transparent from the steam.
“But I can’t stay for long. It’s like throwing a stone into the water. I can only create some ripples for a short time. I can’t hold on for too long.”
“Oh,” Tang Yunle replied nonchalantly, her gaze drifting towards the direction Qin Liang had left. “Just this? If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving. I’ve soaked enough, and I’m a little hungry. I should go find Ah Liang for lunch.”
‘Saying she’s going to find him for lunch is just an excuse to stick by his side.’
Tang Yunke saw through her with a single sentence. Her mind-reading ability always allowed her to accurately see through Tang Yunle’s thoughts.
She leaned forward slightly, and the collar of her bathrobe inadvertently slipped down a little, revealing her exquisite, jade-like collarbone. “Sister, I don’t care if you’re difficult, but I advise you not to fall for a man who is destined to have regrets, even if you want to ‘cling’ to him.”
“That will have a great impact on our future lives. I don’t want us to have money and achieve a class leap, only to have you, sister, drown your sorrows in alcohol every day, thinking of the past.”
Tang Yunle frowned. “What do you mean?”
“And, I just want to be with Qin Liang. I don’t like him.”
Hearing this, Tang Yunke shook her head. “Do you still remember the part in ‘Journey to the West’ where Tang Sanzang advised the King of the Women’s Kingdom, who had his eyes closed and refused to look directly at him?”
“In the words of the King of the Women’s Kingdom, if you have no desire in your heart, everything you see is ordinary. If you are moved by emotion, everything you see is tinged with attachment.”
“You are now in a very dangerous state. A step back is pure and strong friendship, but a step forward…”
She paused and sighed lightly.
“In short, don’t invest too much real emotion.”
“Money is everything. Even if you marry him, it’s just to get more money, not for a relationship that is destined to be full of regrets.”
This rational, almost cold tone, was like an emotionless seal, branding everything with the mark of utilitarianism, not allowing even a hint of warmth.
Tang Yunle was suddenly angry. She didn’t want to talk about this topic anymore.
“Every other sentence is about money. Is money really that important?!”
She and Qin Liang had a life-and-death friendship!
Qin Liang had helped her when she was about to be sold off by the college.
Qin Liang had taken good care of her when she was sick.
Qin Liang had even helped her save face in her family in this world.
And what was Tang Yunke doing with these words?
Was there no other relationship between her and Qin Liang besides a scammer and a victim?
For example, good brothers, for example, friends, and for example, master and female pet.
She made it sound as if she had only been close to Qin Liang from the beginning to cheat him out of his money.
Tang Yunke was a sister who had appeared out of thin air and had even made her change her gender. How could she compare to Qin Liang, a good brother with a deep friendship?
“Alright, alright, I won’t say any more.”
Seeing her genuinely angry, Tang Yunke immediately raised her hands in surrender.
“I just came to report something to you, sister. It might not be long before we can return to our original world.”
“And, don’t think that because brother-in-law is innocent now, he will always be innocent. In the future, he might also become black-bellied.”
“If you continue to tease him like this in the future, sister, you might really be pressed against the edge of the hot spring pool and f*cked.”
As she spoke, the white mist around her suddenly began to churn.
The figure in the moon-white bathrobe was as if being pulled by an invisible force, its edges starting to blur, like ink spreading on rice paper.
“In short, sister, you should be careful. No matter how innocent Qin Liang is, he is still a man, and a man…”
Tang Yunke suddenly made two gestures towards Tang Yunle. One hand formed a circle, and the other hand—was inserted into the circle.
“is destined to f*ck girls like us.”
When the last word dissipated, that graceful figure had completely merged into the white mist. Even the edge of the pool where she had sat had not retained half a hint of warmth.
Only a few wisps of light smoke were still floating on the surface of the water, as if the conversation just now had never happened.
As soon as Tang Yunke left, the heat in the hot spring seemed to have dissipated a little.
Tang Yunle stared at the empty edge of the pool, the anger in her chest still not gone, but her cheeks were inexplicably hot—especially when she thought of that sentence, “is destined to f*ck girls like us.”
“Pah, what am I thinking?” She raised her hand and slapped her own face, and a few drops of water splashed onto the tip of her nose.
What girl? She wasn’t a girl!
She was just a gender-bent boy.
And Qin Liang’s character was so good. How could he possibly cross the line of “good brothers” and lay a hand on her!
Unless they encountered some life-or-death crisis, had an epiphany at Longchang, and directly saw through life!
And when they transmigrated back, when she was gender-bent back, she would be able to punch a little punk like Qin Liang with one punch.
Just as she was thinking, the sound of footsteps came from the distance.
Tang Yunle’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly shrank deeper into the hot spring, leaving only half of her head above the water.
“Ah Le, it’s time for lunch.”
In the mist, the figure of a certain young man slowly appeared.
“Coming!”
Tang Yunle replied.
