Thinking about it this way, the appeal of Jing Shuxuan lying next to her suddenly faded.
She was so deep in thought that she didn’t even notice the time until Jing Shuxuan suddenly called her name, making her realize it was already past eleven.
“Xiangyi, I have to work tomorrow, so I’m going to bed first.
If you get tired, just come sleep with me,” Jing Shuxuan let Qin Xiangyi know about the bed situation, sounding totally natural.
You could tell their relationship was genuinely close.
At the very least, it seemed like they’d slept in each other’s beds before.
Qin Xiangyi responded with a hum, put down her phone full of notes, and looked up at Jing Shuxuan.
“Sister Xuan, why don’t we just sleep together? I’m tired too.”
Jing Shuxuan looked a little surprised and joked, “Not going to chat with your little girlfriend anymore?”
Qin Xiangyi laughed, playing along, “How could she be more important than you, my wife?”
Girls often joke about being each other’s husband or wife.
As expected, Jing Shuxuan didn’t react much, just wrapped her arm around the slightly shorter Qin Xiangyi and said, “Alright, hubby, let’s go to bed together.”
They both laughed and headed to the bedroom.
Jing Shuxuan’s bedroom was simple and carried a faint fragrance.
Seeing Qin Xiangyi standing there zoning out, she pointed at the bed and asked, “You want the left or the right side?”
Qin Xiangyi thought for a moment and decided on the left.
Jing Shuxuan seemed a bit surprised and laughed, “Didn’t expect you, little Yi, to look so gentle but actually be kind of bossy.”
Qin Xiangyi was confused, so Jing Shuxuan explained, “Usually, the person who sleeps closer to the door is the one who likes to take care of others, makes people feel safe… Ah, I can see you’re still confused.
To put it simply, when a couple walks down the street, the guy usually walks on the side closer to the road… Anyway, it just makes people feel safe.”
Jing Shuxuan started sharing her girlish thoughts.
Qin Xiangyi thought back and realized she’d seen scenes like that before.
For someone who lacked a sense of security, that kind of gesture really was heartwarming.
“Heh, little Yi, you don’t even realize what you’re doing, but it’s fine.
If it’s about love, your big sis can teach you step by step.” Jing Shuxuan kept joking, pushing Qin Xiangyi onto the bed like she was about to do something.
Qin Xiangyi played along, spreading her arms. “Sure, come teach me.”
Jing Shuxuan, who just wanted to tease Qin Xiangyi, ended up getting teased herself.
She sighed, “You’re always the same, so boring.
Don’t you ever get embarrassed?”
Her words hinted that this kind of thing had happened before.
Qin Xiangyi didn’t say much, just climbed into bed slowly, pulled the air conditioner blanket over her stomach, and said, “It’s just that your acting is so bad, Sister Xuan, it doesn’t make me feel anything.”
Jing Shuxuan sounded a bit hurt and pounced on Qin Xiangyi again, annoyed.
“Then I’ll really kiss you a few times, so your future husband will regret it!”
With that, Jing Shuxuan lunged like a wolf, but Qin Xiangyi easily flipped her over and pinned her down.
The roles switched again, and Qin Xiangyi smiled confidently.
She’d never been in a relationship, but she’d read thousands of romance novels.
Looking at the scene now, she definitely wanted Jing Shuxuan to realize something.
“Sister Xuan, I want you to know—even women can be dangerous.” She smiled at the pinned Jing Shuxuan, trying to create a kissing atmosphere.
But she didn’t actually kiss her, just let Jing Shuxuan think about it, hoping to change the dynamic between them.
“You…” Jing Shuxuan froze, staring at Qin Xiangyi.
She felt like this was Qin Xiangyi, but also not, as if her brain had been knocked loose and a second Qin Xiangyi had appeared.
But just as Jing Shuxuan started to feel pressured, Qin Xiangyi smiled, let go, took off her glasses, and got ready to sleep.
Her movements were so smooth and quick that Jing Shuxuan didn’t even have time to calm her racing heart.
She looked at Qin Xiangyi again, seeing her stunning face without glasses.
You could still see Qin Xiangyi’s original features, but now they were so delicate they were hard to describe, especially her aura—ethereal and lively, like she wasn’t from this world.
If you rated looks, Jing Shuxuan was a 90, but Qin Xiangyi in front of her was a 180, even prettier than the 150-point Hua Nu, though still not quite as beautiful as the Flower Goddess Huang Quan.
“Sister Xuan, did I scare you?” Seeing Jing Shuxuan staring, Qin Xiangyi thought she’d gone too far and left a shadow on this self-proclaimed hater of Chosen Ones.
If that was the case, kissing Jing Shuxuan would be even harder.
Qin Xiangyi grew anxious, trying to get closer to apologize, but Jing Shuxuan suddenly made a stop gesture and said, “It’s fine, let’s sleep, I have work tomorrow.”
With that, Jing Shuxuan turned off the light, plunging the room into darkness, finally feeling her heart calm down a bit.
But her heart was still beating fast, because of that face, she even started having strange fantasies.
That thought made her face heat up.
She was supposed to be the one teasing Qin Xiangyi, so how did she end up getting flustered by Qin Xiangyi’s face?
The scary thing was, Qin Xiangyi didn’t even realize she was the cause of all this.
Hearing Jing Shuxuan’s heart pounding, she started worrying about her health.
“Sister Xuan, are you really okay?”
“I’m fine, just tired, let’s sleep.” Jing Shuxuan replied perfunctorily, feeling Qin Xiangyi getting closer behind her, even touching her waist.
If it were a guy, he wouldn’t even be allowed in the room.
But this was a girl, and not just any girl—someone Jing Shuxuan was very familiar with.
But now, this little sister suddenly seemed so attractive, Jing Shuxuan realized she was acting weird.
“Good night, then.
By the way, I probably don’t sleep very well.
If I do anything weird, just wake me up.” Qin Xiangyi added politely.
This was the first girl she’d slept with in this world, so Qin Xiangyi had no idea what her sleeping habits were like.
“Huh? Little Yi, you’ve always slept well.” Jing Shuxuan turned her head at that, almost bumping into Qin Xiangyi’s face.
Luckily, she reacted quickly, and in the faint light from outside, Qin Xiangyi’s eyes were still mesmerizing under the moonlight.
“A lot’s happened lately, so…” Qin Xiangyi didn’t panic when her lie was exposed, just explained that she’d changed because of everything going on.
Jing Shuxuan calmed down, realizing she was being ridiculous.
This was just a kid—how could she be thinking such weird things? At that moment, Jing Shuxuan’s mind settled, and she pulled Qin Xiangyi into her arms.
But at the same time, she regretted it…
