Chapter 67: The Troubled “Boy”
However, although Lonis recounted her experiences with less embellishment, Su Ling was still surprised and her body trembled: “Lo-Lonis! You’re amazing… You’ve been through so much, and you’re still persevering like this.”
“Ah, it’s not really persevering, it’s just…”
“Wuwu, and you even prepared such a delicious dinner for us, you’re truly wonderful!”
Su Ling was a bit emotional, and Mi Xue Zhou also expressed her gratitude: “Yes, this time it was all thanks to junior Lonis, otherwise I wouldn’t have known what to…”
“It’s really nothing special for me. Well, why don’t you all go rest first? The hot water in the bathroom is ready.”
…
And so, after everyone returned, Lonis genuinely felt a sense of security. Of course, this was not a material sense of security.
Because although Bai Ye, Mi Xue Zhou, and Su Ling were all companions, in reality, none of them were very good at piloting the ship. Mi Xue Zhou was the secretary, and Su Ling was the mascot. Bai Ye had combat power, but it was difficult to utilize it inside the Time Shuttle. Therefore, Lonis’s sense of security actually stemmed from her spirit.
After all, although Elus was still missing, this was a good start. And it sounded like that black-hearted girl had also taken the risk voluntarily… Speaking of which, it should be like this! After all, how could a black-haired girl like Elus, who was so black-hearted and evil, suddenly get into trouble? She was only trying to save the captured people, and couldn’t tell me.
…
“Hmm, lalala~~”
So, Lonis was in a happy mood now, and she even started to skip when she walked. However, Lonis didn’t expect…
“Wuwuwu, Lonis, I didn’t expect being a boy to be such a troublesome thing.”
“Eh?”
“Wuwu, Lonis, you’re so great, wuwu…”
As soon as Lonis walked into the corridor, Su Ling pounced on her. The pink-haired girl… no, the pink-haired boy now, hugged Lonis’s arm and said dejectedly, “There’s, there’s that strange place, and it’s too troublesome to walk, how should I walk?”
“Eh?!”
“Su Ling feels very strange. And… wu?”
Although Su Ling had become a boy, she was still wearing women’s attire (because there was no men’s attire on the ship). Therefore, if you looked at her generally, Su Ling still looked like a cute girl—or rather, at least a cute boy. However, if you looked down, it was completely different. Because the girl’s short skirt was already pushed up! As for what that was, Lonis knew it at a glance… it was her lost youth, and her memories forgotten in that midsummer. Therefore, just a second of gaze made Lonis’s cheeks turn red.
“Su Ling, that…”
“Mm, it’s all my sister’s fault? It was fine originally, but my sister insisted on taking me to bathe with her and having me massage her body to relieve her shoulder pain… but that only deepened Su Ling’s curse.”
“Eh?!”
“And after Su Ling finished massaging, my sister even angrily drove me out. How hateful! Damn it, my sister is so mean!”
Su Ling put her hands on her hips, looking very dissatisfied, and seemed completely unaware that her situation was actually a bit indescribable. Realizing this, Lonis also felt a headache. Should she say Su Ling was innocent or foolish? She actually had no common sense about a boy’s body. And it was only herself, who had been a boy before, who could help her with this kind of thing. So Lonis could only say, “Mm, Su Ling, let’s shift our attention first… Ah, right, let’s go take care of the slimes.”
“Slimes!”
“Mm, they’ve gotten a bit thin because Su Ling hasn’t fed them these days? They need to be taken care of~”
And so, to divert Su Ling’s attention and let her body “relax” as much as possible, Lonis took her to the slime breeding box, preparing to reward the diligent slimes for their hard work these days! However, Lonis didn’t expect…
“Wuwuwu, the slimes don’t welcome me anymore, wuwuwu!!”
“Eh?”
Normally, when the slimes saw Su Ling, they would rush forward, wishing they could press their bodies against Su Ling’s fingers. But at this moment, these slimes were hiding far away, and even when Su Ling put food into the breeding box, they didn’t come out. Such actions made Su Ling cry, “Wuwu… it must be like that time with Xiao Shi, they think I abandoned them because I haven’t taken care of them these days, so they’re angry, wuwuwu!”
This scared Lonis, and she quickly shook her head, comforting her, “No, no, it might not be what Su Ling thinks. Perhaps, these slimes don’t recognize Su Ling anymore?”
“Don’t… recognize me?”
“Mm, after all, Su Ling has become a boy now, right? And your voice has also changed a bit. The slimes can’t understand, and they’ll be vigilant if they smell a strange scent, right?”
“Is… is that so?”
Hearing Lonis’s explanation, Su Ling stopped crying. However, she still looked a bit dejected, and her head drooped, “But in that case, it’s also… very depressing. When will I be able to adapt to this new identity?”
“Uh…”
“On the other hand, Lonis, you’re simply amazing, aren’t you? You play the role of a girl so naturally, with no flaws at all. Unlike me, even though I’ve become a boy, I still act like a girl. It’s really too embarrassing.”
“Ah!”
Although she knew Su Ling wanted to praise her, Lonis still felt a sense of shame emanating from her heart when she was told this. What do you mean no flaws! Do I really look like a cute, soft girl? But given the occasion, Lonis couldn’t deny it:
“M-my situation is for other reasons… And Su Ling, you don’t need to adapt to being a boy, right? Because your body should return to normal before long~~”
“Eh, is that so? But I feel like everyone’s attitude towards me is so strange.”
“Uh?”
“My sister too, and Xiao Luo a little! Although we’re usually so close, now… now it’s like there’s something separating us.”
Although simple, Su Ling was not stupid. A girl’s heart was equally sensitive, and she could sense the emotions of those around her. And with that mention, Lonis realized… she was actually a little afraid of Su Ling. This was a kind of instinctive fear of boys, especially since this boy was her good friend… so Lonis didn’t know what attitude to face Su Ling with. Earlier, when they were feeding the slimes together, they were also at a distance. So…
(No, no! Su Ling was originally a girl, she just turned into a boy because of a curse. I shouldn’t be afraid of her!)
Lonis clenched her fist and said to Su Ling, “Well, if that’s the case, then I’ll go find senior Mi Xue with you?”
“Oh…”
“Mm, I feel like senior also needs some care? After all, her boobs suddenly became so big, it must be very difficult, right? Ah… I didn’t mean to help senior massage, I just meant that senior’s mood must be a bit flustered now, and that’s why she doesn’t know how to face Su Ling! As long as we communicate, everything will be normal!”
“Oh, o-oh, that’s how it is! Xiao Luo is the best~~”
“Eh?”
“Can I hug Xiao Luo and snuggle with Xiao Luo? Eh, wait a minute, why does it feel like the bottom is even more…”
The pink-haired “girl” pressed against the silver-haired girl’s body. And the sharp “fingers” poked into the girl’s muscles.
