NOVEL ONLINE FREE 8: Sleeping Together
Night fell.
Ye Xing returned to her temporary cottage.
She didn’t know who originally lived in this area, but the room’s decorations were identical to hers.
It was strange.
This also demonstrated the wonders of Stars, which were truly terrifying.
Ye Xing had already eaten dinner outside.
Now it was time for a bath.
Unfortunately, Ye Lan wasn’t by her side, so Ye Xing had to bathe alone.
In the bathroom.
Ye Xing sat in the bathtub, her smooth, fair, delicate body immersed in warm water.
Splash, splash.
Ripples danced on the water’s surface.
Ye Xing drew up her smooth, tender thighs, hugging her knees.
Then she sank down until the water covered her up to just below her delicate nose, leaving only half her face above water. Her clear eyes stared unfocused ahead as she exhaled the air from her lungs, as if expelling melancholy.
“Hmm… what should I do next…”
Then Ye Xing lifted her head, took a deep breath, hugged her knees tightly, and curled up, completely submerging herself underwater.
The warm water pressed in from all sides, temporarily isolating Ye Xing from the outside world, like sleeping in a warm, cozy bed in winter.
“Huff~ Huff~”
Breaking the surface, Ye Xing greedily gulped in air.
Her silver hair, wet with water, clung to her fair, smooth cheeks.
In the misty vapor, Ye Xing sat up straight, revealing her delicate, slender collarbone.
“I’ll just let things take their course.”
Ye Xing mumbled before drying herself with a towel and putting on her pajamas.
Currently, she didn’t dare to wander around.
After all, a Supernova Star Eclipse might erupt soon.
Ye Xing had no desire to get involved in such matters and would definitely stay far away.
Now, it was enough for her to go to the park every afternoon to watch Lian Hua’s puppet shows.
She’d leave the rest to those reliable Night Watchers.
She was just a small fry who couldn’t even control her own Star.
However, she still needed to think things through.
How could she return now?
The [Wishing Machine] had brought her to this timeline, but it couldn’t possibly keep her here forever, right?
Thinking back, in Bai Yu’s story, it ended when the condition of restoring Bai Yu’s health was met.
That is, when the wish was fulfilled.
So, did that mean she could return once she fulfilled the wish she made before sleeping?
Hmm, it should be so.
This time, the wish was to repair Lian Hua’s puppet, so she just needed to keep the puppet in good condition.
But there was a reason for the puppet’s damage, so she needed to understand that reason first.
“Next, I should just become friends with Lian Hua, right? Then the next step would be to visit her home, and after that, become inseparable, and the final step would be to cuddle freely!”
“Ah, no, why would I have such perverted thoughts?”
Ye Xing wiped away non-existent drool and adopted a serious expression.
But her words weren’t wrong.
The first step was to become good friends with Lian Hua.
Ye Xing wasn’t skilled at making friends, but if she tried hard enough, it shouldn’t be a problem.
If all else failed, she could always use the method Lanfeng Suyu had told her: just hug the person and loudly proclaim, “I want to be your friend!” and be done with it.
Of course, that was assuming Ye Xing could swallow her pride, as it would be extremely embarrassing to do such a thing.
……
At the Night Watchers’ base.
Ye Lan had also finished bathing.
She was now sitting on the bed wearing pajamas that Lanfeng Suyu had helped her buy.
Ye Lan’s room was in the Night Watchers’ dormitory, and the environment was quite nice, with a high-end feel to it.
Of course, it would have been even better if she had the room to herself.
Ye Lan looked at a slender figure not far away, her gaze somewhat resentful.
Why was Lanfeng Suyu staying with her, kora!
“Umm…”
Lanfeng Suyu noticed Ye Lan’s expression and asked, “Ye Lan, is something wrong?”
“Why are you staying with me…?”
“Because my task is to watch over you. This is a mission given to me by the boss, so I must carry it out properly.”
It seemed that Yao Can greatly valued Ye Lan, this exceptional Star holder.
To prevent anything from happening to this new mascot, he had Lanfeng Suyu personally oversee her.
“Since we’re both girls, is there a problem with us staying together?”
“Umm… I suppose there isn’t…”
“Then it’s fine, isn’t it?” Lanfeng Suyu displayed a beautiful smile.
Ye Lan sat on the bed, feeling very conflicted and starting to overthink.
Although there didn’t seem to be any problem on the surface, to Ye Lan, it was a big issue!
She might appear to be a girl on the outside, but…
Never mind, she should just accept reality.
After all, she had lived with Ye Xing for so many days, so she could be considered experienced. This time was just a simple practice!
“Hmph~”
Ye Lan suddenly felt less burdened psychologically and looked at Lanfeng Suyu with a brave gaze.
Then she witnessed this scene:
Lanfeng Suyu casually took off her outer coat and other clothes, changing into sky-blue pajamas that seemed as thin as cicada wings or fine silk gauze, clinging to the girl’s curvaceous, delicate body, shimmering brilliantly under the dazzling lamplight.
After changing into her pajamas, she walked over and sat on the bed, her full, plump bottom sinking into the soft white mattress.
Thump thump thump!
Ye Lan’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. She grabbed the quilt and retreated to the corner of the bed, her snow-white cheeks turning completely red, the blush even spreading to her ears.
“You… you…”
Lanfeng Suyu looked at her expression curiously, her golden eyes showing slight confusion.
“Hmm? Are you actually shy?” She couldn’t help but laugh, appearing like a little demon in Ye Lan’s eyes.
Lanfeng Suyu gently played with her pink hair, crawling towards Ye Lan like a puppy, and softly exhaled.
“We’re both girls, after all.”
“Ugh…”
Ye Lan’s eyes had already turned into spirals, and steam seemed to be furiously billowing from her head.
Her mind was in chaos, like a herd of frenzied deer running wild inside.
Finally, Ye Lan abruptly stood up.
“Rua! Rua! Rua!!”
After shouting these embarrassing sounds in shame and anger, Ye Lan ran into the bathroom at an extremely fast speed.
Lanfeng Suyu was left stunned, then looked puzzled.
“Is this child so easily embarrassed? But why is she embarrassed?”
She couldn’t understand, really couldn’t understand.
In the bathroom.
Ye Lan crouched on the ground, covering her face, already wishing she could die.
Although she had seen many erotic pictures, it didn’t mean she had much real-life experience.
Having a beautiful girl in sexy pajamas crawl towards her like a puppy—how could she possibly maintain her composure?
No chicken to talk about?
Well, that’s fine then.
After calming down, Ye Lan began to mutter to herself.
“I originally thought she was just an airhead, but it seems I was wrong. The saying ‘pink on the outside, black on the inside’ is indeed true. She’s more of a natural black than anything else…”
Then Ye Lan suddenly remembered that there was only one bed in this room.
One bed…
One.
Oh no!
Ye Lan’s expression changed as she finally realized the gravity of the situation.
If there was only one bed, didn’t that mean the two of them would be sleeping in that one bed tonight?
This is bad! It’s over!
