Chapter 208: Special

How to cover it up? At the very least, she could muddle through for now, and leave the rest to her future self.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Huanhuan would definitely think of doing that first. But when she saw Dong Yuner wearing that expression, she immediately understood that it was completely impossible to fob her off this time.

Usually, Dong Yuner was almost extremely tolerant of her. No matter what she did or what kind of things she did, it always seemed easy to gloss over.

But Lin Huanhuan knew very well that Dong Yuner was actually a very principled and determined girl.

Not long after she became her personal maidservant, Dong Yuner had already devoted herself wholeheartedly to serving her, and still managed to keep up with her cultivation speed despite that.

Later, when Lin Huanhuan became a villainess young lady, she once tried, for various reasons, to tempt Dong Yuner into corruption so she could control her more easily.

But now, Dong Yuner had already changed and suppressed her chaotic, turbulent heart. Even when Lin Huanhuan’s strength soared to the point where she could barely keep up, Dong Yuner never thought about imprisoning her again. Instead, she trained even harder, just to catch up.

Later, from various clues, she learned that Lin Huanhuan had been secretly seeing other women. Although she was furious, she still quietly observed, hoping to uncover the whole truth on her own.

Dong Yuner’s love for her was the kind that was etched into the bones, unforgettable and indelible—a poison that had sunk deep and could never be cured.

Given that, when Dong Yuner learned that the secret Lin Huanhuan had been hiding could bring great danger, and that she intended to face it alone, how could she not feel driven mad with anxiety?

To sit here quietly and ask calmly was nothing more than the calm before the storm—an appearance bought only by absolute suppression.

“It looks like I’ll have to pay some price.”

Lin Huanhuan took a long breath inwardly, parted her lips slightly, and called softly:

“Yun’er.”

“Come closer. This matter is somewhat secret; I’ll tell you slowly.”

“Yun’er.”

Hearing this, Dong Yuner rose slightly, leaned her head in, and drew close to Lin Huanhuan. Her bright little face showed a look of longing as she gazed at her and asked:

“Miss, is this distance enough? Can you tell me now?”

Lin Huanhuan curled the corners of her mouth slightly. Instead of answering, she actively moved closer herself, quickly wrapped her right arm around Dong Yuner, and before she could react, lowered her head and gently pressed her lips against those tender, rosy, inviting lips.

For a moment, Dong Yuner felt as if her mind had gone completely blank, as if she had lost all her senses. The only thought left in her head was:

“She actually kissed me first?!”

Her bright eyes opened wide, her long lashes fluttering like butterfly wings, and her pupils had turned into spinning circles.

In the fish tank by the corner, two lively fish swam cheerfully, occasionally jumping out of the water and splashing ripples.

Even though the two of them were complete novices at this, Lin Huanhuan, being the one who initiated the attack, was mentally prepared. She had also seen plenty of learning materials in her past life. Although she had never put it into practice, she could still be considered experienced.

Dong Yuner, on the other hand, was a yandere who had once threatened to lock Lin Huanhuan in the basement, but she had no clear idea what to do afterward.

Comparing the two, wasn’t it only natural that Lin Huanhuan overwhelmed Dong Yuner?

After a long while, the kiss ended.

Lin Huanhuan lightly wiped her lips with the back of her hand.

Dong Yuner’s little face was still flushed, her two small hands unsure where to rest, still immersed in the lingering afterglow of the kiss.

Lin Huanhuan teased gently:

“Well, are you satisfied now?”

“Miss, you’re being a bit too mean…”

Dong Yuner hadn’t fully come back to her senses. Looking at her, her moist eyes flowed with a sticky sweetness like honey, as if she wanted to melt her completely and fuse with her.

Dong Yuner took a deep breath. The cold air rushed into her lungs through her mouth, and only then did she calm down a little. She said calmly:

“Miss, even so, I won’t let you get away with it. Just confess honestly.”

Even though what had just happened made her heart flutter with joy, almost soaring with happiness.

But if all that came at the cost of Lin Huanhuan’s safety, she would rather not have it.

Lin Huanhuan sighed again, knowing that this hurdle wouldn’t be so easy to clear.

Fortunately, she hadn’t expected to resolve this matter so simply.

She wrapped her arm around Dong Yuner’s slender waist again and gently pulled her into her embrace.

“Ah…”

Dong Yuner let out a surprised cry.

Her already fragile composure, which she had forced up, seemed to be kicked hard and instantly shattered. She was pulled into Lin Huanhuan’s arms and held softly.

Lin Huanhuan lowered her head and kissed her smooth forehead lightly.

“Miss, you…”

Dong Yuner stared at her blankly.

Lin Huanhuan’s eyes showed an indescribably tender affection. She parted her thin lips and said slowly:

“Yun’er, you might not know this, but actually, you are the person I love the most.”

Hearing this, Dong Yuner’s eyes widened in surprise, and her whole body trembled violently as if shocked by electricity.

Lin Huanhuan didn’t give her time to react. She hugged her even tighter and continued:

“I’m pouring out my true feelings now. There’s not a word of falsehood.”

“To me, you are not only the most special person, but also the one I love most.”

“It was the same in the past, it’s the same now, and it will be the same in the future.”

“I know you might not believe me, but this is the truth. No matter what the future holds, I will use time to prove these words.”

The woman in her arms trembled violently, and her voice shook as she asked:

“Th-then why did you do that? Don’t you know how worried I am about you?”

“If you die, what meaning would there be if only I’m left alive? How could I possibly go on living alone?”

Lin Huanhuan sighed softly, then gently blew on Dong Yuner’s sensitive earlobe. She took her hands and said quietly:

“Of course, because I was worried about you. I didn’t want you to get hurt, so I didn’t take you along.”

Just as Dong Yuner was about to retort, Lin Huanhuan spoke again:

“But seeing you like this this time, I finally understand. I was wrong.”

“I shouldn’t have left you alone to face those things.”

“The truth you want, I can’t tell you. I’m not able to tell you.”

“All I can give you is a promise—a promise that I will definitely keep.”

“From now on, no matter what happens, no matter what stands in front of us, I will face it together with you. I will call you to face it together.”

“I won’t leave you alone again.”

“Is that okay?”

She asked softly, with a hint of pleading.
