Chapter 296: Don’t Think Calling Me “Older Sister” Will Work
The annoying aura of that large moth was still present.
Only the appearance and figure seemed to have undergone extremely subtle changes.
The most eye-catching was her prominent pair of breasts.
Luo Cong’an squinted her eyes. The address “Cong’an Older Sister” gave her goosebumps all over the ground, and her voice couldn’t help but rise.
“Who is your older sister?”
As the saying goes, nothing happens without a reason.
She was already on high alert, wanting to see what tricks this large moth was trying to play.
As if sensing Luo Cong’an’s nervousness, the woman smiled slightly and said softly, “There will be a day when we become familiar with each other.”
“Even if we aren’t now, we will be in the future.”
Selena spoke and began to walk slowly towards the woman standing in the courtyard.
Luo Cong’an frowned as she watched her, her heart filled with even more doubt.
However, considering their previous ‘alliance,’ she didn’t voice her objection.
Selena approached step by step until she was in front of Luo Cong’an.
She found that although she was already quite tall, she was still inferior to this disciple of the Priest.
Luo Cong’an was truly very tall.
She was almost as tall as the young man sleeping in the room.
“Cong’an Older Sister, why are you so hostile towards me?”
When Selena spoke, she was neither delicate and affected nor sarcastic.
To a listener, it only sounded like her genuine thoughts.
Luo Cong’an was taken aback, stammered for a moment, and then said, “Why, you should know yourself.”
Selena blinked, her tone inexplicably seeming a little wronged, “But didn’t we agree to form an alliance?”
Luo Cong’an’s expression froze. She thought that even if that were the case, wasn’t her change in personality too rapid?
After not seeing each other for just one night, she seemed like a completely different person.
Looking at her current alluring appearance, one would think she had already succeeded…
Of course, Luo Cong’an only grumbled these words in her heart and did not speak them aloud.
She cleared her throat, “Cough, that being said, your change is still too great, and I find it difficult to accept for the moment.”
Upon hearing this, Selena’s eyes flickered, and suddenly a playful smile appeared in her eyes as she looked at Luo Cong’an.
This disciple of the Priest is surprisingly pure.
Her smile immediately made Luo Cong’an even more vigilant.
She frowned slightly, and as if thinking of something, she said coldly, “Don’t think that just because you call me ‘older sister’ a few times, I’ll hand over the Mister to you.”
Selena shook her head and smiled, “You misunderstand. I just feel that since you found the Priest first, it’s only natural that I should call you Older Sister.”
This remark hit home with Luo Cong’an.
Her expression immediately improved, and her tone softened.
“Speaking of which, you always refer to the Mister as Priest. I’m a bit curious about what you experienced in that world.”
She paused, “Mainly because the Mister is unwilling to say much, and I can’t keep asking him.”
Luo Cong’an’s words were not false.
She was indeed very curious about where the Mister had gone after leaving her, and what heinous deeds he had committed to attract so much romantic trouble.
However, as soon as she spoke, she felt that it was rather presumptuous to inquire so abruptly.
It was mainly because the big moth’s attitude today was too good, unusually agreeable, which made her impulsive to talk about these things.
Under normal circumstances, they would likely start arguing after only a few words.
“Cong’an Older Sister, very-”
Perhaps seeing that Luo Cong’an did not object, Selena continued to address her that way.
It had to be said that unlike Eileen, she had always had strong affinity since childhood, so she could easily get along with people in her interactions.
Just like Luo Cong’an now, her originally cold and resistant attitude gradually softened without her realizing it.
Seeing her inquiry at this moment, she hesitated and nodded.
Then, Selena took her hand.
Luo Cong’an’s eyes widened, and she instinctively wanted to pull away.
In all these years, besides the Mister, very few people had been able to hold her hand.
Her foolish disciple Xiaoqiu was one of them who dared to do so.
As for people of the opposite sex, it had never happened.
But as she thought of their conversation, she forcibly restrained herself and did not react.
The woman led her to a stone stool beside them and sat down.
Her delicate face seemed to have a faint, lingering smile since she saw Luo Cong’an today.
She did not deliberately tease Luo Cong’an, nor did she lie. She simply began to speak slowly, recounting how she met the Priest back in the day.
Unlike Eileen’s more reserved nature, Selena had always been happy to communicate with people.
“The story begins with a pampered little girl being driven out of her home…”
The woman’s voice was soft, and even when describing her past tragic experiences, there was no hint of complaint.
Her narration was unhurried and gentle, easily drawing people in.
Especially in certain aspects, Luo Cong’an actually had many similarities with them.
As Selena narrated, the little girl in her story, who had been hiding and struggling to survive, finally saw a turning point.
“Speaking of which, when I first saw the Priest, I thought I was going to die like that…”
“At that time, I even felt that dying like that might not be a bad thing, as a kind of release.”
The woman did not intend to complain, she was simply calmly stating her thoughts at the time.
But Luo Cong’an, sitting beside her, was startled and felt inexplicably saddened.
Because she still remembered that snowy night when she seemed to have had the same thought.
For people in their situation, death was sometimes not a punishment, but rather a release.
No longer having to kneel and beg for survival, no longer enduring the hardships of hunger and cold.
“And then?”
This time, Luo Cong’an took the initiative to ask.
Selena glanced at her, then turned her head to look at the room where the young man was sleeping.
Her eyes held a smile that could not be dispelled.
“Later… it was only through slowly interacting with the Priest that I realized that those frightening words he spoke were just that – words.”
“Things like ‘training,’ ‘judgment,’ and ‘injecting positive energy’ – I never saw him actually do them.”
As the woman spoke of these things, perhaps recalling something, her crystal-clear earlobes were tinged with a faint blush.
Luo Cong’an did not notice this detail but keenly caught the hint of regret in her tone.
She frowned and asked, “Judging by your tone, you seem a little disappointed?”
Selena’s expression froze, and she quickly shook her head, trying to explain, “How could I…”
She added silently in her heart, she was only impersonating Eileen, not truly Eileen.
