Chapter: Chapter 176
Bai Ling would not be foolish enough to use the three days she owed to offset the reward that Leticia needed to pay this time.
For her, listening to Leticia’s orders for three days was not an unacceptable thing at all; on the contrary, she was quite happy to accept such a thing.
“Wow, we don’t have to hurt each other like this. You can use the three days you owe me to offset the reward I need to pay this time, isn’t that good?” Leticia stomped her foot and asked a little confusedly, “Why do we have to end up with both of us losing?”
It was like Leticia had borrowed a hundred yuan from Bai Ling before, and now she was short of money and asked Bai Ling to borrow another hundred yuan. Normally, this would be equivalent to Bai Ling returning the money, right?
But Bai Ling’s intention was clearly not like this; she intended to calculate these two things separately.
The money she owed Leticia was still owed, and the money Leticia was borrowing now was a separate matter.
It was as if they both owed each other a hundred yuan at the moment. In principle, they owed nothing to each other, but according to Bai Ling’s current intention, she intended to make their current state into a situation where they owed each other.
“I like it, can’t I?” Bai Ling said with her arms crossed, looking proud. “Let’s talk outside, don’t disturb Xiao Mo’s rest.”
Mo Zili blinked her eyes. She wasn’t sleepy now and wanted to watch the show!
But the two girls obviously didn’t care about Mo Zili’s little thoughts. Bai Ling and Leticia walked out of the room, pulling and dragging each other, and closed the door behind them.
“So, what reward do you want?” Pulled out of the room by Bai Ling, standing in the dim corridor, Leticia asked in a low voice.
Bai Ling did not answer, but continued to pull Leticia towards her room.
“Hey, what are you doing? I’m telling you, don’t have any crooked ideas, I will resist!”
“Am I that kind of person?” Bai Ling asked, a little wronged.
“Do you think you, who kissed me by surprise, have the right to say that?” Leticia tilted her head and said without giving Bai Ling any face, “That was my first kiss, do you understand the value of a first kiss?”
In response, Bai Ling stated that it was her first kiss too: “It’s my first time too, you didn’t lose out.”
“No, you kissed me by surprise, and I didn’t lose out?” Leticia’s eyes widened. She had seen shameless people, but she had never seen anyone so shameless.
She, such a pure and kind little girl, had her first kiss taken away by Bai Ling, this lustful, simple-minded, and strong but mentally lacking muscle woman, just like that. Wasn’t this a huge loss for her?
How could she say “you didn’t lose out”!
“Well, you didn’t lose out. I am a super beautiful girl. My first kiss was given to you, so how could you lose out?” Bai Ling nodded with certainty. “Okay, let’s go into the room to talk. It’s not appropriate in the corridor.”
“What’s not appropriate? This is my home, anywhere is appropriate,” she said, but Leticia’s resistance weakened considerably, allowing Bai Ling to pull her into her room.
Bai Ling’s room was next to Mo Zili’s. This was arranged by Leticia specifically, with the purpose of allowing Bai Ling to better protect Mo Zili.
The lights were not on in the room, and the curtains were tightly drawn. The only thing illuminating the room seemed to be Bai Ling’s ruby-like eyes.
“Hiss, shouldn’t we turn on the lights?” Leticia reached out her hand, wanting to touch the switch on the wall.
But Bai Ling raised her hand and pressed Leticia’s hand, “This way is better.”
“Don’t you feel it’s dark?”
“I think this way will allow us to communicate better. You don’t want to see my face, so now you should be able to calm down and talk to me, right?” Bai Ling’s voice was a bit ethereal, as if she herself knew that this reason was not very convincing.
But whether it was convincing or not, it wasn’t that important. What was important was whether the person opposite wanted to be persuaded.
At this moment, Leticia clearly wanted to be persuaded.
“Alright then, what do you want to say?” Leticia withdrew her hand, looked directly into Bai Ling’s eyes, and asked.
“Ahem, as a reward, how about sleeping with me for a few days?”
“You want to take advantage of me?!” Leticia immediately flung Bai Ling’s hand away and made a move to open the door and run out.
Bai Ling quickly grabbed Leticia, “We’re just sleeping together, I won’t do anything.”
“How do I know if you’ll do anything?” Leticia struggled to pry Bai Ling’s hand open, but her strength was clearly no match for Bai Ling’s.
She, such a weak and powerless little girl, sleeping with Bai Ling, the big bad wolf, wasn’t she sending herself into the mouth of this perverted fellow?
Although nothing unexpected happened in the previous few times, who knew if something would happen this time?
Maybe Bai Ling would go wild and want to push Leticia onto the bed and give her an unforgettable experience, wouldn’t Leticia be in danger then?
For her own body, Leticia felt it was better to be careful.
Her first kiss was already lost, and she couldn’t possibly lose her first time, right?
“No, no, your trust level with me is already negative, I won’t sleep with you.” Leticia gritted her teeth, and a chilling cold air surged within her.
Bai Ling frowned, but had no intention of letting go of Leticia.
Since Leticia was unwilling to sleep with her, she would settle for the next best thing.
“Then, you’ll rest here for these few days, and you have to let me hold you for a while every day, is that okay?”
“How long is ‘a while’?” Noticing Bai Ling’s surprising patience, Leticia unhappily withdrew her magic and then asked about Bai Ling’s condition.
Just to be held for a while, it didn’t seem like an unacceptable condition.
Bai Ling’s embrace was soft, and her scent was pleasant. At least Leticia felt she wasn’t losing out by being held.
“Two hours?” Bai Ling asked tentatively.
“Are you kidding me?” Leticia chuckled.
Two hours. The time she could spend with Bai Ling was from after dinner until before sleep. To ask her to spend two hours out of this time to be held by Bai Ling was too abstract.
“Then, one and a half?”
“One hour, no more.”
“Okay, then one hour!” Bai Ling immediately agreed. This amount of time was enough to satisfy her.
Her decisive agreement made Leticia feel a little bit at a loss.
“No, half an hour!”
“Hmph, no backing out now. Then, let’s make up for yesterday’s one hour.”
…
“So… Sister, you fell asleep on Sister Bai’s bed while she held you?”
“An accident, it was truly an accident. I didn’t expect that person to smell so good, and I fell asleep while smelling it.” Leticia covered her face, her voice filled with a hint of collapse.
Qilin’s eyes also became a bit vacant. She no longer knew what to say about her sister. She had said so much about avoiding Bai Ling and having no further dealings with her.
But why, less than half a day after saying that, did her sister happily fall asleep in Sister Bai’s arms!
Isn’t this too fickle?
“Uh, I think I can explain.” Leticia cautiously raised her head, wanting to explain why she had slept in Bai Ling’s arms all night. “Mo Zili’s magic was triggered yesterday, so I rushed back from the Demon King’s Palace to check the situation.”
“Well, after checking the situation?” Qilin rested her chin on her hand, looking at her sister with a scrutinizing gaze.
They were in the study now, having a private conversation between sisters, so there was no need to worry about anyone else suddenly appearing to interrupt their conversation.
“Bai Ling is very sharp. Hearing the movement on my end, she also came to Mo Zili’s room. Then, after I finished dealing with Mo Zili’s matters, she pulled me into her room.” Leticia completely shifted the blame to Bai Ling.
But Qilin was not someone who could be easily dismissed. She only asked one question, which made Leticia cover her face again: “Then, why didn’t Sister resist?”
She didn’t believe that her sister would be forcibly pulled into the room by Bai Ling if she resisted.
Her sister was not that weak!
So, whether it was the reason or not, Leticia definitely did not object to being pulled into the room by Bai Ling, and was even quite happy about it.
“This is a transaction, yes, a transaction.” Leticia found another reason. “She came to help me, so I had to give her some reward, right?”
“The reward is you yourself?”
“Wow, Qilin, when did you become so sharp-tongued!” Leticia slumped onto the table, looking like a salted fish. “Anyway, she asked me to let her hold me for an hour every day. I don’t think it’s unacceptable, so I agreed.”
But she never expected that she would directly fall asleep during that hour last night.
It was really embarrassing to say.
“Phew, let’s put aside this strange transaction for now. I’ll just consider it a special way of interacting between you and Sister Bai. I want to ask another question now.” Qilin asked in a very serious tone, “Sister, you haven’t fallen for her, have you?”
Hearing this question, Leticia immediately perked up. She might not be able to answer other questions, but she could guarantee this one with 100% certainty.
“Of course not. I wouldn’t fall for that pervert for anyone!”
Looking at her sister’s confident expression, Qilin didn’t know whether to believe her sister or not.
Her sister’s behavior in the past six months had been quite good, and she didn’t seem to have fallen for her, but why did she immediately become like this as soon as she saw Sister Bai?
Could it be that Leticia’s state of being infatuated or not infatuated switched randomly?
When Bai Ling was not around, she was not infatuated, but when Bai Ling was present, she switched to an infatuated state seamlessly.
“Really?”
“Of course, it’s real. Between her and me, there is only a super pure transactional relationship. As for feelings, there is only full of hatred.” Leticia answered righteously. She held her head high, as if to add some credibility to her words. “Don’t worry, Qilin, your sister will not fall into the hands of a human.”
“I hope so.” Qilin actually believed Leticia at first, but when she saw her sister walking out of Bai Ling’s room with sleepy eyes this morning, she began to doubt her.
They had slept together several times now, and her sister seemed to have gotten used to occasionally sleeping while being held by Bai Ling.
Were these hugs and embraces the actions of ordinary friends? Was sleeping while being held something ordinary friends would do?
No, it wasn’t.
“Alas, although this is your own emotional problem, and I don’t dislike Sister Bai either, you two are really not suitable to be together.”
“I know, you don’t need to keep emphasizing it.” Leticia quickly stood up and interrupted Qilin’s rambling, pushing her sister towards the door. Leticia opened the door and intended to push her sister out.
Then, they saw Bai Ya and Mo Zili crouching by the corner of the wall not far away, and Bai Ling standing in the corridor without any intention of hiding herself.
So, all these people were eavesdropping here?
Especially Bai Ling. This wasn’t even called eavesdropping; this was blatant eavesdropping!
Uh, what should blatant eavesdropping be called?
“They are curious about what you are talking about.” Bai Ling claimed that she had nothing to do with this matter. She had simply brought her sister here, and was coincidentally completing the task that Leticia had given her.
As for Xiao Ya, she was even more fearless; she just wanted to eavesdrop.
Isn’t gossip everyone’s nature? When she saw Qianqian-jie walking out of her sister’s room early in the morning, Xiao Ya’s gossiping heart began to burn fiercely.
Although her sister had fobbed her off with words like “this is just a transaction between me and her,” the clever and intelligent Xiao Ya wouldn’t believe her sister so easily.
What kind of transaction would lead to the bed? Xiao Ya wasn’t a girl who knew nothing about everything; she was aware of some… sensitive knowledge.
Her sister and Qianqian-jie were very proper and pure, so their so-called transaction must also be very pure.
Maybe?
“Xiao Ya, don’t worry about it too much. I’m just teaching my sister a lesson for not keeping her word.” Qilin walked to Xiao Ya’s side and gently stroked the little girl’s head.
“Eh, Qianqian-jie didn’t keep her word? What word did she not keep?” Xiao Ya asked confusedly.
“Cough!” Leticia coughed loudly.
Obviously, she didn’t want what she and Qilin had said to be known by others.
“This is a secret between sisters.” After coughing, Leticia said to Xiao Ya mysteriously.
“Mmm, you really can’t tell me? Then I can also help supervise Qianqian when little Qi is not around.”
“No.” This time, Leticia and Qilin reached a consensus.
If Xiao Ya really found out, she would definitely side with her sister.
