Episode 8: Who Will Be the Lifelong Partner? Part 6
What time is it?
Ugh, can’t stand it… Annoying, annoying, annoy-ing.
Still… just a few more minutes… It’s coming soon!
Hold on, just a little longer… Keling, hold on now, don’t be anxious.
I’ve endured so many days, enduring for a little while longer is no problem.
It’s here!
It’s here, it’s here, it’s here!
It’s finally here!
Almost at the same time, everyone else also…
If they heard what we were saying in the room, they probably heard it too.
And it seems they were all well-prepared. The peace felt genuine, but it was merely an illusion.
Although it seems like we’ve all been getting along well on the surface during this time,
It was all for this moment!
From now on, everyone is an enemy!
Strike first! Let’s chase after them first!
They shouldn’t have gone far!
If it’s only two hours, then Brother…
Let’s go to Brother’s side!
I can’t even spare a second, and Sister Xinran is also a competitor!
This time, Brother is mine alone!
But before I could run out, someone silently placed a hand on my shoulder.
“Wait a moment, don’t look at him like that. I won’t fall for those cheap tricks you’re playing! I’m going to find Brother now!”
“Hmph! Don’t try to fool me! You sly fox! We’ve been getting along well recently, haven’t we?”
“Waaah, you really change your tune in an instant. I thought we were getting along well!”
“I really agree! I thought we were getting along well! You sly fox! You’re surprisingly good at putting on a show!”
If it weren’t for that contract, how could I possibly…
“I’m not wasting any more time with you! I’m going to find Brother!”
Bride!
As a woman, I’ll go to the ends of the earth for him!
And then, I can call him Mom, hehehehe~
There’s no time to delay!
Let’s set off now!
“So, don’t be so impatient.”
“Let go of me.”
“Keling, listen to her first.”
“Jiuyuan!”
Since Jiuyuan-jie is speaking…
Yes, wasting time here is making me anxious.
“This is also beneficial for you, isn’t it?”
“Younger Sister Keling, you’d want fewer competitors, wouldn’t you?”
“What do you mean?”
“Don’t you have an interest in the battle for the position of main wife this time?”
“I thought most of you would be here to… were you just here to scatter people’s spirits?”
Hmph, I thought every one of you loved Brother to death, which is why…
Is there really someone who doesn’t want to participate?
No way! No way!
And it’s her saying this?
They all belong to Brother…
How could that be!
To my surprise, she said nothing, pursed her lips, and smiled.
“If you participate, our chances of winning will be slim. But do you really…”
“Hoo hoo, that would be a great help.”
“Not participating?”
“I’m not interested anymore. I’ve already spent a long time with that guy.”
“It’s also thanks to your care that Juncheng is still Juncheng. In fact, we should all call you ‘sister’.”
“The reason I’m here is also because of you. Should I call you ‘Mom’ too?”
“If you’ve always called me that, I wouldn’t refuse.”
“Hoo hoo, you…”
I’m too lazy to bother with that thick-skinned fox spirit anymore.
She sat down and didn’t intend to go out. It seems she’s really not interested in the battle for the position of main wife this time.
So Ling isn’t participating. What about the others? To be honest,
Even if I win this time, there’s no real benefit.
The main wife has the right to suppress and bully the mistresses, but Juncheng wouldn’t allow such a thing.
Competing for the title of ‘main wife’ is just an empty name. A ranking of one to seven, that’s all. I don’t think anyone is really interested in that. Hoo hoo hoo.
Not only the fox spirit, but did she expect this from the beginning?
To eliminate those who have no will to fight in advance and reduce the number of competitors. What a plan!
Then, another person raised her hand. I’ve never seen her before. She must be a new one Brother found somewhere.
Her personality seems quite soft, as if she’s a pushover.
She’s as pure as a brand-new bar of soap that’s never been used.
If even that fox spirit can’t subdue her, I’ll probably change drastically too.
It would be best if it really happened.
SF Light Novel
Gulp. Saint, are you really not participating?
“Indeed. As a servant, I shouldn’t have such presumptuous thoughts.”
“You’re the same no matter which world you’re in. However, in the original world, you were the first one to marry Juncheng.”
“Eh?!” x2
My scream overlapped with the blonde girl’s. She herself looked surprised.
What? This blonde girl was the first to marry Brother?
Everyone else also looked at Saint with varying degrees of surprise.
“You are Juncheng’s last witch, just as Young Miss is Juncheng’s first witch. The last one is also significant.”
A certain young miss snorted.
The last one…
No, the last one was Jiuyuan-jie. In the previous world, everyone else was a loser, and only Jiuyuan-jie…
And at that time, it should have been my body that awakened. I was originally Juncheng’s vessel for Jiuyuan-jie.
In other words, in the end, I got Brother.
That’s right! Brother should have been mine!
You bad guys! You forcibly took Brother away!
Bad guys!
“The process of conquering you was the most troublesome. Although marriage was just an event that happened between us, in the end, you were the one who…. together with Juncheng, lived happily ever after in a wedding dress. So, you were indeed Juncheng’s first bride. You should have seen this scene, shouldn’t you, even if you haven’t experienced it yourself?”
“…”
Saint covered her head, lost in thought.
Her hand inadvertently touched the base of the ring finger on her left hand.
Hmph, it seems there was such a thing.
“I feel a bit indebted to you. After all, if it weren’t for… the other me replacing the world, you would have been the first to marry Juncheng. And you represent her, don’t you?”
“…I understand. I will participate.”
Tsk, so I have to participate after all.
After Saint made up her mind, the masochistic teacher on the other side also spoke.
“Uh, then I…”
“Lily-sensei, you shouldn’t give up so early.”
“But, Master…”
“Imagine it from a different perspective. Juncheng is wearing your body, biting your ear, and calling you ‘Teacher’ in your ear… placing his hand on your…”
“…”
SF Light Novel
Ugh, I can’t help but imagine that scene too. It’s quite evocative.
My heart started racing. To be able to describe it so vividly, that fox spirit is indeed skilled at saying such beguiling things.
“Uh, Lily-sensei, nosebleed! Your nose is bleeding!”
She’s actually bleeding from her nose? Really? How pure can she be?
Even though she has such a terrible figure, she’s bleeding from just this…
Hoo hoo, also…
“How is it? Isn’t it wonderful? Juncheng’s coldness is nice too, but the occasional passionate Juncheng has a different kind of charm, don’t you think?”
“I… I will participate!”
In the end, Teacher Yang was also swayed.
How strange.
I didn’t think that fox spirit was trying to reduce the number of competitors, but now she’s persuading others to join?
What is she really up to?
“Then, are there any others? No one else? Hmm… then let’s get ready to depart~”
Yes!
It was a complete waste of time!
Whatever. If Ling withdraws, that’s…
Let’s go!
“Wait a moment~”
“What is it now! I’ll bite you!”
“Younger Sister Keling, do you know where Juncheng went?”
“Why should I tell you!”
After dinner, I overheard Li Nai and Brother talking in my room about hiking clothes and the like.
I bet they’ve gone into the deep mountains.
“I know what you’re thinking, Younger Sister Keling, but that’s just an illusion.”
The class monitor unexpectedly knows a lot.
She saw through it…
That’s right, this person is a stalker.
“When it comes to tracking Juncheng’s whereabouts, no one is better than me. After all, I am…”
“…Hoo hoo hoo.”
“Heh heh heh, the blue fox finally admits it?”
“Oh, I’m not a stalker~”
Juncheng and the class monitor are probably on a plane. They bought tickets on the spot and took a flight.
“Judging by the route, they should have gone to the airport. Now Juncheng…”
“…It’s a flight before noon. That means we can’t catch up immediately.”
“A plane!”
They’re flying!
Buying tickets on the spot instead of in advance… SF Light Novel
What a ridiculous idea from that idiot Li Nai?
“Where did they go!”
This fox spirit must know!
I have to admit, when it comes to tracking Brother’s whereabouts, this person is incredibly skilled.
“Hmm~ Where did they go~ Hoo hoo hoo~”
Damn it… She’s playing coy!
“Don’t be angry, Younger Sister Keling. You won’t be pretty if you’re angry.”
“Tomorrow!”
It’ll be too late by then!
Who knows where Li Nai took Brother!
I can’t go after them right now–
“Don’t worry, the class monitor, you know…”
She herself has no intention of competing for the first place.
“Huh?”
“Heh heh, that’s right. Juncheng is probably doing something with Brother’s… but she always breaks free from the established pattern and overturns the status quo.”
“Because that person is like that.”
“You guys, stop talking to yourselves! What’s going on!”
I’m so anxious here! And you’re all so slow!
Sister Xinran and Sister Jiuyuan too,
It’s lively, come and help!
But the fox spirit said unhurriedly.
“They’re probably sightseeing leisurely, so it’s fine for us to leave tomorrow. Let’s endure it for today, Younger Sister Keling.”
“…”
Tomorrow.
Forget it.
Indeed, we lack information now. Rushing out recklessly won’t help me find Brother.
“Only for today…”
“Okay! I promise we’ll leave tomorrow.”
I snorted coldly.
And returned to my room.
I just need to endure one more day.
And then, the next day.
I received news that the plane Brother was on had crashed.
