Chapter 30: Offense and Counter-Push
In the end, I couldn’t help her with anything, and Zi’ai went back.
Instead, she helped me adjust my mindset and comforted me with herself. I was truly ashamed…
After saving the text message, I put my phone back in my pocket and asked Lanhua, who was standing at the bathroom door.
“So, how do you know her?”
“Hm? Oh my, Juncheng~ Are you underestimating how well I know you? Even if I hadn’t seen her appear on the monitor, I can judge whether it’s the real Juncheng or the fake Juncheng the moment I see you?”
Lanhua’s words might really be able to distinguish my authenticity from details—I had no doubt about that. However, I noticed something strange in her words.
Even if she hadn’t seen it on the monitor? Does that mean she only found out about Zi’ai’s appearance later?
“Hm? You didn’t see Zi’ai appear?”
It was strange that Lanhua wasn’t constantly watching me.
“So her name is Zi’ai? What a nice name.”
And to think I only just found out her name now—. Lately, I’ve felt like she’s been looking at me less, so it wasn’t a mistake. It seems Lanhua is also encountering something…
Ah, right, there’s one more thing I haven’t asked.
“Lanhua, how did you know when she disappeared?”
She knew that Zi’ai was about to disappear before I did. Did she check the text messages on my phone in advance? But if that’s the case, she wouldn’t have not known Zi’ai’s name—where did she get this information from?
“Um…”
Lanhua lowered her head and fell silent. She clenched her fists. Although I couldn’t see her expression, her conflicted feelings were clearly conveyed to me through her actions.
“Should I… rely on Juncheng?”
“What are you saying…”
I didn’t quite understand what she wanted to say, so I wanted to ask back, but seeing her expression, I swallowed my words.
With a helpless, wry smile, Lanhua showed me a look of helplessness for the first time. At that moment,
She was in trouble. SF Light Novel
Since she had no solution, she came to ask me for help. Facing Lanhua’s plea, who had helped me so many times, there was only one response I could give.
“Of course, you can.”
“But don’t you hate me, Juncheng?”
“Huh? When did I ever say I hated you?”
Oh, is it because I’m always so distant with her that she thinks I hate her? I hate her gaze, not her as a person!
Ah, this might sound strange, but I just don’t like being stared at. I don’t hate Lanhua herself.
Being directly confessed to by a beautiful girl, anyone would be a little happy, right? The reason I refused Lanhua back then was because I felt that I couldn’t get too close to other girls if Lianbing was my only girlfriend.
Although now… ahaha… I’ve gone down the path of being scum and can’t turn back
But life can’t be lived twice. Since I’ve already chosen this path, I should be confident and bring happiness to everyone!
Since I’ve already died once, if I fail in the end, it’ll just be dying again!
Let’s fight for the establishment of my harem! (Harem – + Harmonious Harem + Harmonized Harem)
Also, I’m not used to being treated so enthusiastically, so I feel uncomfortable. At first, I thought being stared at by a crazed stalker was terrifying, and I tried everything to get rid of the surveillance. Now, I’ve gotten used to it (and the surveillance can’t be completely eliminated either). I guess habit is a terrible thing.
But in reality, Lanhua is a very self-controlled person. She hasn’t done anything excessive since then. Perhaps—at first, she couldn’t control her desires, which led to **behavior, but now she can control herself well… at least she doesn’t act infatuated in front of me anymore.
“I’m not good at dealing with you, and I’m a bit helpless with your stalking behavior, but it doesn’t mean I hate you. Tell me if there’s anything. I’ll do my best to help you.”
“….Can I push you down, Juncheng?”
?P SF Light Novel
Suddenly changing to an unrestrained mode, hey, hey! Her expression is breaking apart! Saliva! Saliva! Wait, what’s with the position of her hands!
I take back my previous assessment. It seems she hasn’t stopped being a pervert; she’s just become an ‘elegant’ pervert.
“Don’t take advantage of the situation… If you’re not going to talk business, then go back!”
But Lanhua showed no intention of leaving, so in a fit of anger, I pulled her closer and engaged in some physical contact.
Speaking of which, I’m quite skilled… or is this my true nature? If I recall Zhe Yu’s words, my past life was apparently that of a playboy. Even if I’m reborn, the soul is still the same.
I’ve always pretended to be reluctant, acting like a victim, as if everything was against my will. Surrounded by many girls, I acted like it was troublesome. What was I thinking? Taking advantage and… isn’t that me?
…No, I shouldn’t fall into self-loathing.
Zi’ai also said I should be confident.
Lost in these thoughts, I didn’t notice that the hand holding Lanhua’s collar had let go at some point.
“Hehehe…”
I squatted down, pinched her nose, and snorted.
“How is it? Have you finally learned your lesson…?”
“Woah!”
However, the truth proved that I still underestimated Lanhua.
Not only did I fail to subdue her, but I even triggered a dangerous switch.
Lanhua directly tackled me in the locker room, straddling me, panting heavily, and said excitedly.
“…You’re finally willing to accept me!”
“..-.-….”
With things reaching this point, saying anything less would seem impoverished and weak. Not to mention, even I…
If I’m going to build a harem, then Lanhua is naturally one of its members—I subconsciously thought so.
Yes, this might be a wrong decision!
“Juncheng~~ Hehehe… Persistence really pays off! I’ve been holding back, holding back, holding back, and haven’t done anything that might make Juncheng hate me. Now, finally, finally, finally, I’ve waited for this! Lanhua is so happy, so excited, so blissful right now~ I want to do comfortable things, and I want Juncheng to feel comfortable too. Is that okay, Juncheng? It means yes, right? I can do all sorts of things to Juncheng now that I have permission, right!”
Her string of words was filled with madness. She wasn’t asking for my permission; she had already decided.
“Waa! Wait! I’m sorry! It’s my fault! Please stop!”
I underestimated Lanhua’s desires! Think about it, a stalker who surveils me twenty-four hours a day, and has been suppressing that impulse until now—how much has accumulated?
She’s a powder keg!
Lanhua, of course, couldn’t be stopped by me. She had completely gone berserk, lost all control!
And the one who drove her to this was none other than this idiot, me!
Ahhh, I’m sorry! I was too arrogant! Being surrounded by a group of girls has made me swell with pride!
Please, spare me!
“I-I-I-I-I-I-I… I’m finally going to take the step towards adulthood today! Aah~ Aah~ Aah~ I love you, I love you, I love you, Juncheng~ Let’s **~”
If what I did earlier was mischievous, then Lanhua’s actions were already lewd! A feeling of being bound swept over my entire body, infinitely unrestrained!
“Wait, hold on… Please stop! Lanhua!”
In my desperation, I could only use ‘verbal coercion’ to suppress her.
But!
She only stopped for a moment and then broke free!
Just like Li Nai, who turned into a zombie and tried to bite me back then, my Spiritual Power couldn’t suppress them at all! The reason is, of course, that their Spiritual Power is strong enough to resist!
The status displayed concisely showed why her spirit was so resilient now.
[Reason Evaporated, Desire Excessive, Emotion Elated, Breeding Urge, Frenzied]
It was the first time I had seen so many statuses, five in total!
“Ah, please don’t worry! I’ve been careful usually, I haven’t damaged it! Hehehe, I’ve been saving it for Juncheng all this time. You don’t have to worry about me feeling pain? Do whatever Juncheng likes… please play with me freely. Being rough is fine too, and you don’t have to take responsibility if you break me.”
She held my hand. Her sweat-drenched hair glistened under the bathroom lights, and the tears in the corners of her eyes made her eyes incredibly moist and pitiable.
…At this point, what else could I say?
Lanhua, you win. You successfully stopped Lianbing and Zi’ai, and got ahead.
So, my first experience is going to be with Lanhua…
Well, I hope she becomes a little more obedient afterwards. It would be best if she were completely submissive to me.
But Lanhua avoided it. What’s going on? I’m here… No, she didn’t avoid it; she suddenly sat up excitedly.
Her voice rose, becoming uncontrollable.
Although she was also excited, it was due to a different emotion… Anger? Even her title turned orange.
“…Why are you here?”
Lanhua suddenly put on an expression of extreme disgust, as if she had seen something unforgivable and intolerable. Her eyes, which were full of love just a second ago, instantly turned into hateful glares.
However, she wasn’t looking at me but past me, towards my back.
“Get out of here, Zihua!”
Huh? Zihua?
Who is that?
