The air in the gaming room suddenly turned scorching hot at this moment.
…This heart, beating just for me…
Gazing into Meng Wange’s eyes, Su Wanli felt like every breath she took was inhaling a ball of searing flame, making her internal organs burn along with it.
…Huff… huff…
…How strange, it felt like oxygen had vanished from her chest into thin air. No matter how deeply she gasped, she couldn’t calm her body down.
Calm down, Su Wanli! Meng Wange is still watching, she’s definitely seen all of your reactions!
She was already struggling to find excuses for her earlier behavior, and now it would be even harder to explain!
Besides, her own heart was pressed tightly against Meng Wange’s chest. She would surely notice with ease the restless heartbeat within her, just as agitated as her own, pounding heavily against the surface of her skin, beat after beat.
“Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump…”
…At this point, there was no need to keep doubting. Through the heartbeat of this legendary “Aura of Main Heroine,” the genius girl Meng Wange, Su Wanli had become absolutely certain of one thing.
—That is, Meng Wange also…
…Absolutely loves her body, and has wanted to get intimate with her through various means for a long time.
Ahem, although Meng Wange had always wanted to try hugging her and such, it did sound like a shocking fact that would make one’s jaw drop, but honestly, it wasn’t that shocking to her.
—After all, from the very first day Meng Wange arrived at the Sujia, she had tried to indirectly kiss her by feeding her, grabbed her palm and pressed it to her chest, and afterward there were all sorts of clues revealing this. The Data Panel from the day before yesterday had directly confirmed this fact for her.
That’s right, one of her earlier deductions had actually been correct. Beneath Meng Wange’s cold, ascetic exterior, she was just an ordinary adolescent girl harboring some normal desires toward her.
Then, what about other aspects?
…Um, although it sounds strange coming from her, since she herself had also slightly coveted the Heroine’s beauty, but if after spending so much time together, Meng Wange’s feelings toward her were still just that simple, physical kind of Like, that really wouldn’t do, would it!? That’s way too low-level and shallow, isn’t it!? What she wanted from the very beginning was actually that kind of soul-level resonance!
If there’s no soul-level resonance, and it’s just liking each other’s bodies, then how is that any different from friends with benefits!?
Although from a certain angle, Meng Wange, as an Aura of Main Heroine with an overall very positive image, should be someone whose outside matches her inside. Since she liked her body, she should also like her soul along with it.
But… would it really be like that? Meng Wange, besides her body, also admiring her soul or something…
…No matter how she thought about it, it was impossible.
After all, even she herself didn’t know, aside from this passable-looking shell, what else about her was worth Meng Wange’s Like.
From the very first day she met Meng Wange, she had been constantly playing the role of a willful Villainous Eldest Young Lady under the System’s instructions. First, she snatched away the only memento Meng Wange’s Mother had left for her. Then, at the Welcome Banquet held for her, she mocked her with cold sarcasm. After that, she forced her to go to Xue Xiao alone, and then constantly spread Ambiguity rumors about the two of them at school…
Huh, was it her imagination? It felt like these childish moves didn’t even count as Banling?
Ahem, it must be that her memory wasn’t thorough enough. The Banling above started escalating, growing more and more intense. Not only did she do this and that to Meng Wange, but in the end she even did some…
Some… what was it again? For some reason, she felt like the scenes of her bullying Meng Wange had become somewhat blurry. Was it because there were too many instances and they were too severe, so her brain automatically ignored and blocked out this information?
This was the consequence of always pulling her punches and leaving herself a way out when carrying out Tasks. Even if she wanted to repent now, she had forgotten exactly which bad deeds she should be repenting for…
Just as Su Wanli was sinking into this prolonged self-doubt, Meng Wange lightly furrowed her brow, staring intently at the black-haired girl in her arms who had, for some reason, begun to space out.
…Honestly, to think she would be thinking about other things at a time like this.
Miss Su, even though I’m holding you tightly in my arms like this, I still can’t occupy all of your thoughts?
Meng Wange pressed her lips together, and as if to punish her, extended a single finger joint, lightly and barely tracing across Su Wanli’s back.
“…!?”
Feeling that faint yet impossible-to-ignore force behind her, Su Wanli’s body jolted violently, then she dazedly lifted her head, meeting Meng Wange’s gaze directly above her.
Oh right!? Stupid Su Wanli, what are you spacing out for!? From earlier until now, she had been tightly held in Meng Wange’s arms the whole time!?
Besides, even though the System said “actions the Heroine takes on her own initiative toward you will not significantly deduct your Female Villain Value,” enough time had passed. Her Female Villain Value had already dropped to 82. If she stayed any longer, she might start developing some strange Debuff!
When that happens, if the System gives her a muscle weakness negative status and she can’t break free from Meng Wange’s embrace, her Villainess Career would gently meet its end in Meng Wange’s arms!?
Su Wanli instinctively reached out, pressed her palm against Meng Wange’s shoulder, then used all her strength to push Meng Wange away by about ten centimeters.
“…”
Th-that was close, she almost died! If this continued, she would either die from lack of oxygen or die from her Female Villain Value hitting zero…
Calm down, Su Wanli, you’ve only just confirmed a fact that had already shown Clues in Meng Wange. Could it be that after learning Meng Wange is very interested in your body and willing to engage in intimate contact with you, you can be Satisfied and stop there?
No, of course not. Rather, it’s only just beginning!
Gazing at the brown-haired girl who, even after being pushed away by ten centimeters, was still smiling brightly and gazing at her, Su Wanli lightly bit her lip and silently made up her mind.
Since her body’s attraction to Meng Wange had been conclusively proven, then next…
It was time for the deeper battle!
