After the two of them had a wild “heart-to-heart,” their pants ended up on the floor.
Dong Enyu picked up the jeans from the ground and looked around, still not having put them on.
At that moment, Yong Le was sitting on a crate, pulling out a cigarette from her pocket.
With a snap of her lighter, she lit it and took a couple of puffs, but her gaze was still fixed on Dong Enyu’s bare, round backside, wondering what she was doing.
“Are you still hungry?”
Yong Le exhaled a cloud of smoke, a mischievous smile creeping onto her face as she stared at Dong Enyu.
“With such bold teasing, I might not be able to hold back.”
Her voice was husky, laced with laughter, making it sound incredibly seductive.
“I can’t find my panties…”
Dong Enyu frowned, having searched the bottom of the box but still unable to locate her black lace underwear.
“If you can’t find them, then don’t wear them. No one can see you anyway.”
However, Dong Enyu shot her a skeptical look, as if warning her to come clean.
Yong Le stared at her for a moment, then teasingly pretended to undo her belt again.
Seeing this, Dong Enyu immediately stepped forward and pinned her hands down.
“What are you trying to do! You can’t just do whatever you want!”
She pressed down on Yong Le’s wrists, but Yong Le blew a puff of smoke in her face.
“I see you’re feeling uneasy without your panties, so I thought I’d take mine off and give them to you. How about that?”
She pried Dong Enyu’s hands away and pulled her into an embrace.
“Otherwise, what do you think I want to do? Hmm?”
The last word lingered, dripping with playful mockery.
“Even if you take them off, I don’t want to wear them.”
She broke free from the embrace and huffily put on her jeans.
Seeing Yong Le’s annoying smile, she snatched the cigarette from her lips and took a deep drag before flicking the butt on the ground and extinguishing it, blowing a puff of white smoke in Yong Le’s direction.
After adjusting her clothes, Dong Enyu strode away, but just a few steps later, she felt a tight grip around her waist.
“Where are you going?”
Yong Le held onto her, and the two walked side by side down the dark alley.
Her voice was low, deliberately whispering into Dong Enyu’s ear, and she could faintly smell the scent of tobacco on her.
“Home.”
Dong Enyu was too lazy to elaborate.
After the intense activity earlier, all she wanted was to take a shower and collapse into bed.
“Can I sleep at your place tonight?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Dong Enyu stopped in her tracks.
“Is that not okay? Do you have a man or a woman at your place?”
Yong Le squinted at her, but Dong Enyu didn’t explain.
She let the woman follow her, continuously asking questions without responding.
By the time they walked back to Star Diamond, Yong Le had kept her arms around Dong Enyu, and Dong Enyu didn’t push her away.
As soon as they entered the lobby, Mama-san appeared.
She had intended to scold Dong Enyu, but upon seeing Yong Le, she suddenly fell silent.
“Let go of me.”
Dong Enyu tried to pull away from Yong Le, but she clung on stubbornly.
“I want to sleep with you. I want to sleep in your bed tonight!”
“You need to talk to Mama-san about that; I can’t decide.”
She helplessly gestured for Yong Le to go over herself.
“Okay, you said it, so you can’t back out.”
Yong Le promptly released Dong Enyu and walked over to Mama-san.
“Mama-san! Long time no see! It’s only been a few weeks, and you’ve gotten even prettier!”
She greeted Mama-san warmly, starting with a compliment.
“Yong Le, long time no see. Why hasn’t Han Ge come by recently?”
Mama-san responded immediately upon hearing Yong Le’s greeting.
“Han Ge has been busy lately, and he had a bad cold a while back, so I came to hang out for him,” Yong Le said cheerfully, her earrings sparkling and dazzling Mama-san.
“Mama-san, can I sleep at Star Diamond tonight? I won’t disturb your work; I just want to share a room with Aunt Dong.”
“Huh?”
Mama-san was taken aback.
She looked at Yong Le, hesitating for a moment before saying, “It’s fine, but Dong Enyu sleeps in the Basement. If you don’t mind that, then it’s okay.”
As soon as Mama-san agreed, Yong Le waved her hand and left without even saying goodbye.
Where she slept didn’t matter; the key was to lie in the same bed as Dong Enyu, under the same blanket.
She happily walked to the Basement, knowing exactly where Dong Enyu slept without anyone telling her.
There were only two doors here, one open and one closed.
The open one led to the storage room, while the closed one was naturally Dong Enyu’s bedroom.
Yong Le unceremoniously turned the doorknob, but it was locked!
She raised an eyebrow and knocked twice.
“Open the door!” she shouted at the wooden door, but there was no response from inside.
“I talked to Mama-san, and she agreed, so open the door and let me in!”
To her surprise, Dong Enyu had snuck back while she was chatting with Mama-san and had deliberately locked the door.
“Dong Enyu! Open the door!”
Being locked out felt terrible, and Yong Le’s expression darkened.
She crossed her arms and shouted a few more times, but Dong Enyu refused to open up.
Knowing she was an impatient person, she issued an ultimatum.
“I’ll give you ten seconds. If you don’t open the door, I’ll kick it down and come in to beat you up!”
She wasn’t joking and silently counted in her head.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one…
Bang!
— The fragile wooden door was kicked open with a loud crash, the sound echoing through the Basement, and the doorknob fell to the ground.
Dong Enyu shrank back in the corner of her bed, shocked.
She hadn’t expected Yong Le to actually kick her door down, and the door had even fallen from its frame.
Yong Le’s face was pale, as if possessed by a ghost, her red eyes resembling a monster from a movie, as if flames were surging within, almost burning Dong Enyu’s gaze.
“What are you doing kicking my door down!”
She grabbed something nearby and threw it, but the pillow was easily caught by Yong Le, who held it in her arms and stepped forward.
“Don’t come any closer! I told you not to come closer!”
No one could stop the big bad wolf when it wanted to eat Little Red Riding Hood, and no one could stop the little rogue when she wanted to hit Dong Enyu!
Smack!
Smack!
Smack!
Three sharp sounds landed on Dong Enyu’s backside.
Not content with just hitting, Yong Le’s hands began to knead her as if she were dough.
“Who told you to lock the door! And your door is too flimsy; remember to ask Mama-san to install a sturdier one tomorrow, or else I’m worried about your chastity.”
Does she even have chastity left…
After Yong Le had her fill of squeezing, she lay back on the bed, wrapping her arms around Dong Enyu from behind, holding her tightly, her legs entwining with hers, treating her like a pillow and not allowing Dong Enyu to turn over.
“Don’t do this; I’m really uncomfortable,” Dong Enyu squirmed a few times, but Yong Le refused to let go, her breath brushing against Dong Enyu’s neck, making it impossible for her to sleep.
“Fine, I won’t kick you out, but let me lie down first. How can I sleep if you’re holding me so tightly?”
“You’re so annoying. Just close your eyes and sleep. And you’d better get used to it because I’ll come over to sleep with you whenever I have the chance.”
Yong Le’s words sent a chill down Dong Enyu’s spine.
Again?
She furrowed her brows tightly.
When did she provoke this troublemaker?
Was it just because she treated her to a bowl of plain noodles?
But she understood that asking would be pointless.
After giving up on struggling, Dong Enyu simply shut her mind off.
She was too tired; she had been shopping all afternoon, attended a solo concert in the evening, and then was chased around, even having a rogue lay hands on her.
The memories of the day swirled in her mind, and in her drowsiness, she grew accustomed to the warmth behind her and the sound of calm breathing in her ear, quickly drifting off to sleep.
The next day when she woke up, no one was holding her anymore, but there was still someone sitting by the bed.
Yong Le was only wearing a long shirt, sitting on the edge of the bed.
Dong Enyu stared at her row of earrings from behind, which were colorful and vibrant, shining like a dazzling rainbow, making her eyes sting.
She let out a few soft whines, lazily turned her head, and when Yong Le heard her movements, she leaned in closer, bending down to lightly peck the corner of her mouth, the warm lips barely touching before pulling away.
“Good morning, baby.”
Unlike last night when she called her “Aunt Dong,” she switched to a more affectionate nickname.
Dong Enyu rubbed her eyes, staring at her for a while before asking, “Why haven’t you left yet?”
Her tone held no trace of displeasure, her lazy voice lacking strength, sounding both sexy and a bit spoiled.
Yong Le smiled at her, leaning down close to her lips, “I was afraid you would throw a tantrum if you woke up and didn’t see me.”
This statement was quite cheeky; where did her confidence come from?
“Someone called you earlier.”
Yong Le held out the phone in front of Dong Enyu, realizing she had been looking at her phone just now.
Dong Enyu didn’t mind; after all, there was nothing on her phone.
She took the call and saw that the missed call was from Mu Lin.
“Who is she?”
Yong Le squinted at Dong Enyu.
They were close enough that she could clearly see Yong Le’s fiery pupils, which were captivating yet intimidating.
“A friend.”
Dong Enyu put her phone away, unable to articulate what her relationship with Mu Lin was.
“What kind of friend?”
Yong Le pressed, unwilling to let it go, expecting Dong Enyu to give her an answer.
Faced with Yong Le’s inexplicable questioning, Dong Enyu simply changed the subject, softly asking, “Are those fiery red pupils real or fake? If you don’t take out your contact lenses all night, it can hurt your eyes.”
“They’re real; I intentionally had surgery to get them. Do you like them?”
She was pleased with Dong Enyu’s concerned question, so she didn’t pursue the topic of Mu Lin any further.
She leaned in, pressing her forehead against Dong Enyu’s, allowing the other to see her reflection in her eyes, even catching a glimpse of her own smiling face in Dong Enyu’s gaze.
Upon hearing this, Dong Enyu suddenly averted her eyes.
“What’s wrong? Don’t you like them?”
Noticing her avoidance, Yong Le unhappily held her chin, forcing their gazes to meet.
Dong Enyu admitted that those eyes were beautiful, unlike anything in the world.
The heat that seemed to surge like flames was filled with a domineering and wild aura, captivating anyone who looked at them.
However, they were too direct and intense, making Dong Enyu feel fear the longer she looked, as if the truth would be exposed, suffocating her.
“I like them, but you’re too forward, and it’s a bit overwhelming for me.”
Dong Enyu pushed Yong Le away and sat up, speaking the truth.
She found it strange; why was Yong Le so persistent?
Or what exactly was her intention?
“Do you like women?”
Dong Enyu asked, turning her head while opening her simple wardrobe, glancing at Yong Le sitting on the edge of the bed.
She shook her head.
“Then why did you act like that with me last night?”
Dong Enyu took off her outerwear and picked a gray sweater.
Yong Le scratched her head, her long red hair a bit messy yet still stylish.
“Teacher Zhao can, so I can too.”
Her words sounded odd, as if they were directed at Dong Enyu, but rather at Zhao Han.
“Do you have a grudge against Teacher Zhao?”
If not, then what was with the provocative tone?
“No, I have nothing to do with her, but I’ve seen her a few times. That woman is very cold; I even wondered if she had no sex drive, but it turns out she likes to be with women,” Yong Le said with a smile, grabbing a pillow and hugging it like a child, her eyes sparkling with mischief.
“So I wanted to find out; the person she took out that day was you, so I wanted to see what kind of person could move the ice queen.”
“Did I disappoint you?”
Dong Enyu looked at her with a half-smile, thinking Yong Le was just a little kid.
“No, but I’d be even more satisfied if you were more proactive.”
She jumped off the bed and hugged Dong Enyu, resting her shoulder against her and laughing, “From now on, we can be best friends!”
