Su Mengyao’s well-behaved behavior set White Snow’s mind completely at ease.
She gave the girl a kiss on the cheek as a reward, and seeing her adorable flustered look, her own mood improved a lot.
They played until nearly eleven. White Snow saw it was getting late, and on top of that, she was really tired today, so she said goodbye to her and returned to Lin Shuangxue’s home.
A flash of white light, and Jiang Cheng fell from one softness into another, landing on the bed Lin Shuangxue had prepared for her.
To be honest, Lin Shuangxue was actually pretty good to me. I don’t know what brand the blanket is—can’t read the label—but it’s super soft.
And the skirts she promised me—if I just say a word to An Xin, I can have as many as I want. I even get tens of thousands in allowance every month.
If only she could stop being so awkward.
Every time Jiang Cheng thought of Lin Shuangxue, she got angry.
When they parted that afternoon, Lin Shuangxue had said,
“You’d better close that Psychological Counseling Room.”
Why?
“You’re getting too close to those girls. I don’t like it.”
‘Oh, so you don’t like it? That’s your problem, not mine!’
‘You don’t want to see me being affectionate with other girls? What kind of friend are you? Selfish!’
‘I’m not yours!’
Jiang Cheng thought angrily.
‘I won’t just continue the psychological counseling service—I’ll step it up!’
‘You don’t like me being friends with other girls? Fine, I’ll change the daily limit from ten to twenty!’
‘Not only that, I’ll expand! Add more sofas!’
‘Actually… forget sofas—I’ll turn them into beds! Then there’ll be one big bed in the treatment room, no, ten beds! And I’ll have ten girls waiting outside!’
‘When they come in, I’ll use “Maternal Overflow” through cuddling. That way I can level up my “Soothing” skill and improve my own mood—two birds with one stone!’
Jiang Cheng got more and more excited.
‘What could Lin Shuangxue do then? If she came into the treatment room, she’d only see sleeping girls sprawled everywhere, and me working hard to treat them.’
‘”What are you looking at? Never seen a psychological counselor comforting troubled girls?”‘
‘”What, you want some too?”‘
‘”Wait outside! Get in line!”‘
‘Wow, just imagining that scene was satisfying…’
After indulging in that wild fantasy, Jiang Cheng felt especially refreshed. She got up, left the room, and went into the bathroom to wash up.
While brushing her teeth, she heard footsteps outside, voices talking, and especially heavy footsteps and a door opening. She didn’t pay much attention.
Probably someone was really tired and in a hurry to sleep.
After washing up, Jiang Cheng hummed a tune and walked back to her room.
She pushed the door open. The light from the hallway streamed through the gap, leaving a long strip of light in the room.
There was someone lying on the bed.
She closed the door and looked up at the room number.
It was her room.
‘No way, why is there someone on my bed?!’
The girl calmly thought for two seconds and decided she must have opened the door wrong.
Jiang Cheng pressed her hands together and prayed to the great Doraemon, hoping he hadn’t mixed up the Anywhere Door with her door.
Then she pushed the door open again.
Sure enough, that person was still on her bed.
***
‘No, why is this happening?!’
Jiang Cheng stormed into the room, walked to the bed, and was about to demand an explanation.
But the moment she saw that face, she deflated.
“Ahem, Classmate Lin Shuangxue…”
Jiang Cheng took half a step back.
“What a coincidence, you’re sleeping in my bed too?”
‘What coincidence?! Meow!’
‘The question is, why are you in my room?! On my bed?!’
‘And why didn’t you even take off your clothes?! You rude bastard!’
Jiang Cheng was cursing up a storm in her heart, but she still kept a polite smile on her face.
“Classmate Lin Shuangxue, look, did you get the wrong room? This is my bed.”
“Classmate Lin Shuangxue?”
The mature woman lying on the bed didn’t answer. Jiang Cheng poked her exposed hand, poked her face, and even bravely poked the clothes over her chest, but there was no reaction.
At the same time, Jiang Cheng smelled a strong scent of alcohol.
‘Had Lin Shuangxue been drinking?’
Jiang Cheng wasn’t sure. In her impression, Lin Shuangxue wasn’t the type to drink herself unconscious. She didn’t even think Lin Shuangxue would drink at all.
After all, in the manga, Lin Shuangxue was a total workaholic. After work, she’d go teach two classes or go on an intense shopping spree as a break. She would never do something like drinking that would make her lose her composure.
But now? How did she end up drinking so much?
Jiang Cheng was troubled.
‘I’m not some Overbearing CEO. Why is there a plot where a drunk girl crawls into my bed?!’
‘I’m the soft, cute girl here! If anyone’s crawling, it should be me crawling into someone else’s bed… Wait?’
Jiang Cheng suddenly realized that this plot wasn’t so bad after all?
‘At least now, Lin Shuangxue is defenseless in front of me. Whatever I want to do, she has no power to resist.’
‘Doesn’t that mean I can take revenge however I want?’
Looking at Lin Shuangxue’s sleeping face, the mischievous Jiang Cheng conceived an evil idea.
She reached out her hand, hesitated in the air for a moment, then suddenly brought it down—and pinched Lin Shuangxue’s cheek hard.
Hearing Lin Shuangxue mumble something unclear—like a dream or an objection—Jiang Cheng felt delighted.
‘You! Your mouth is so tough, but when you pinch it, it’s soft~’
‘Pinch, pinch, pinch!’
‘Heh, no way to resist now, huh?’
‘You’ve fallen under my skirt, and you can’t even beg for mercy anymore~’
‘No, I have to capture this scene with my new phone. Hmm… where did I put my phone?’
Just as Jiang Cheng was searching for her phone on the table in the dark, Lin Shuangxue’s eyes opened a slit.
In the darkness, using the light from the hall, she saw a suspicious figure by the bed, sneaking around, doing who knows what.
“Jiang Cheng… is that Jiang Cheng?”
“Oh, don’t rush! I’m still looking for my phone. I’ll take a picture in a sec… Wait!”
The girl jumped up in fright.
“Lin Shuangxue! When did you wake up?!”
In her drunkenness, Lin Shuangxue couldn’t hear what Jiang Cheng said clearly.
She only saw Jiang Cheng jump in surprise and speak loudly about something.
‘That girl must be stealing something in my room.’
Lin Shuangxue was a bit annoyed.
‘I care so much about her, yet she doesn’t appreciate it at all. Instead, she comes into my room and does who knows what?!’
‘This Jiang Cheng needs to be taught a lesson…’
“Hurry up, where’s my phone… I’ll miss the shot…”
Jiang Cheng was still searching for her phone.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed the edge of her clothes.
“Hey! What are you doing?!”
The girl was startled. She panicked and turned to slap away the drunken hand.
But then, the hand yanked hard.
Jiang Cheng only had time to let out a cry of
“Uwah!”
before being caught and pressed onto the bed.
While the girl was still in shock, a face that was cold and beautiful but reeking of alcohol pressed close…
