“Xue Ji, Sister Ji, Brother Ji! Please, please do that thing again!”
“In your dreams, you. Even if I’m looking for someone to scold, I’ll only scold girls!” Xue Ji slammed her milk tea down on the table hard. “Drink it if you want, leave if you don’t!”
The class’s Genshin Impact fanatic, Zhao Cheng, got scolded by Xue Ji, and he actually looked like he really enjoyed it.
“That works too. That works just as well.”
The awkward part was that Shen Dai happened to be coming over at that moment, and Xue Ji suddenly started to worry a little that she might be affecting the relationship between those two.
Seeing Shen Dai’s face full of displeasure, her brow furrowed tightly as she got closer, Xue Ji somehow felt like she had done something wrong.
“Um, we were only joking around,” Xue Ji quickly explained.
But instead, Shen Dai got even angrier. She puffed out her cheeks and said huffily, “Why did you only scold her and not me? Come on, hurry up, hurry up!”
Xue Ji’s expression shifted from calm at the beginning to terrified. These two really were a perfect match for each other.
“Do we really have to do this? I don’t think it’s appropriate. And besides, why do you both want me to yell at you? It feels so weird.”
Xue Ji looked around uneasily. Because of her and Shen Dai’s pushing and pulling, many people’s eyes were gathering on them. Even Sha Ya was looking over, her ears twitching.
Did she really have to do this in front of everyone? She felt that anyone who liked this kind of thing definitely had a screw loose.
While Xue Ji wasn’t paying attention, Xia Jin had brought Lilith and Eva over to sit in a corner. She took out her phone, ready and waiting at any moment.
Before she knew it, the cafe space grew quiet, and everyone focused their gazes all in one place.
“Alright, alright, I get it. I’ll scold you, fine.” Xue Ji reluctantly gave in under that kind of atmosphere.
Her hands fidgeted nervously, gripping the hem of her skirt, and she took a deep breath.
Before she could even say a word, her face had already turned bright red.
The shy, blushing posture of the white-haired girl was so breathtakingly captivating that people couldn’t forget it after just one glance.
She was originally like a clear, bright moon, untouched by a single speck of dust, but at this moment she had fallen into the mortal world, allowing people to actually feel her warmth.
“Du—… dummy,” Xue Ji managed to utter with difficulty.
Shen Dai widened her eyes and took a deep breath, just to hold it and not disturb Xue Ji’s performance.
“Idiot! You’re such a big idiot!” Xue Ji vented the confusion inside her heart. “Moron, pervert, weakling!”
Xue Ji kept scolding for a full three minutes, but Shen Dai, standing right in front of her, just had a look of pure enjoyment on her face.
“Xue Ji, even when you curse at someone, you’re so cute. It just makes you so lovable.”
Hearing that, Xue Ji felt both embarrassed and annoyed. Her breathing became rapid, and there were faint traces of tears starting to form in her eyes.
She fled away like she was escaping, disappearing from everyone’s sight.
Xue Ji was so focused on running away that she bumped straight into a soft embrace.
“Sorry, sorry… mmph~”
Just as she tried to lift her head, the other person pressed her firmly against their chest, leaving her unable to move.
The sudden ‘facial cleansing milk’ left Xue Ji completely at a loss, but the more she struggled, the tighter the other person held her, giving her no chance to break free at all.
This texture, this warmth, this fragrance — there was no doubt it was Ling Xiaoxiao.
Based on her own experience, the moment she figured out who it was, Xue Ji stopped resisting and just let the other person hold her tight.
“Miss Maid, if you’ve had enough fun playing around, please give me a little bit of time for now.”
Ling Xiaoxiao toyed with Xue Ji’s beautiful hair. If she could, she would truly want the person in her arms to belong only to her forever, instead of being shared with others.
Like what had happened earlier — Ling Xiaoxiao really didn’t like watching it, but because of Xue Ji’s classmates, she couldn’t lose her temper. So now, she could only find Xue Ji to make it up to her.
Ling Xiaoxiao loosened her hold on Xue Ji just a little, so that she could just barely lift her head and look up at her. But their bodies were still pressed tightly together.
“Haah, haah, Ling Xiaoxiao, why are you holding me so tight? You’re suffocating me!”
Xue Ji’s body temperature was on the cooler side, and Ling Xiaoxiao could clearly feel the heat from her own body transferring over to Xue Ji.
Listening to Xue Ji’s quick breaths and feeling the other girl’s gradually warming temperature — this sensation made her completely infatuated.
This was her own irresistible invasion into Xue Ji’s space, the feeling of claiming every single part of Xue Ji as her own.
Looking at the white-haired girl in her arms, who wasn’t putting up any resistance, a rush of conquering pleasure followed.
Ling Xiaoxiao, caught up in the excitement, cupped Xue Ji’s face and was about to kiss her.
‘Geez, here she goes again.’
Seeing that, Xue Ji quietly closed her eyes, waiting for the contact that was about to come.
But unexpectedly, Ling Xiaoxiao only kissed her forehead and her cheeks.
“Tonight belongs to you. Go do what you love.”
Ling Xiaoxiao let Xue Ji go, turned around, and walked away. Her cascading black hair brushed like a waterfall through Xue Ji’s fingertips.
Only after a moment did Xue Ji touch her own face.
Without her even noticing, Ling Xiaoxiao had changed.
Even though that unreasonable possessiveness was still completely unapologetic, her methods were no longer forceful.
“Ling Xiaoxiao, who taught you this retreat-to-advance tactic? It’s so unfair.”
Xue Ji murmured to herself, feeling her own wildly pounding heart. The moment Ling Xiaoxiao let go, she had almost completely fallen for her.
There was no doubt about it — a gentle Ling Xiaoxiao was lethally powerful, with no one able to match her.
Feeling flustered and distracted, Xue Ji walked back. There were now a few more maids in the cafe, and Xia Jin and Sha Ya were among them.
Sha Ya was very popular with many of the girls. The moment she went over, they insisted on keeping her there to feed her treats.
Since she had been requested way too many times, Shen Dai simply arranged for her to focus entirely on sitting and talking with them.
Ling Xiaoxiao was also there, sitting together with Lilith and Eva.
When Eva saw Xue Ji come back, she smiled and waved at her.
Xue Ji walked over.
“Eva, are you having fun here?”
Eva nodded.
Xue Ji pulled over a stool and sat down with them. This table was in a corner where the lighting wasn’t great. But even so, four uniquely beautiful girls were incredibly eye-catching.
It made the passing classmates all turn their heads to look.
Lilith was swinging her little feet, fiddling with a doll toy she had bought from a stall earlier.
Eva watched her play with it.
Lilith was reshaping the doll into the form of a Gundam, which she knew Xue Ji loved to see, turning the originally round-headed, round-faced doll into a fully armed robot.
Eva opened her small mouth slightly, clearly amazed by Lilith’s skill.
Ling Xiaoxiao, however, wasn’t speaking, and neither was Xue Ji.
Because underneath the table, Ling Xiaoxiao’s leg had been rubbing back and forth, teasing Xue Ji.
There was no way Xue Ji was going to let this girl bully her. She seized her chance, switching from defense to offense, and used her foot, still in its little leather shoe, to rub and trap Ling Xiaoxiao’s calf.
Just when things looked like they might head in a dangerous direction, Xia Jin came over.
“You want to go watch a performance?” Xia Jin asked. “There’s a special guest tonight, you know.”
“Yeah, yeah, let’s go. Let’s all go together.”
Ling Xiaoxiao was unusually eager, because she honestly couldn’t take it anymore. She had tried to tease but ended up getting teased instead.
Just thinking about Xue Ji’s foot in its white stocking rubbing and gripping her leg made Ling Xiaoxiao’s imagination run wild.
She glanced over at Sha Ya not too far away and remembered that scene of that girl licking her own foot. A chill ran down her spine, but then looking at the tantalizingly beautiful Xue Ji in front of her, she felt a faint sense of anticipation.
‘I wonder if Xiao Ji would mind me trying out this kind of play.’
