“Slurp… slurp… To be honest, the braised beef noodles here are really authentic… Slurp, slurp…”
“Slurp… slurp… And these toasted chili flakes, as expected of Wanqing, you guys really have the most variety when it comes to eating spicy food!”
“Slurp slurp… Huh? Little sister, why aren’t you eating? Wasting food is a bad habit.”
“Um… I just ate, I’m not hungry.”
“Then how about giving it to me?”
“Um… Here.”
At a noodle stall by the river in Wanqing City, the river breeze was desolate. As the refreshing, cold breeze blew past, two women of different styles sat there. One sat quietly with the aura of a mature beauty, while the more youthful one was slurping down piping hot braised beef noodles in large gulps.
Ji Yunian looked at the girl in front of her. Her face was flushed red from the toasted chili flake beef noodles, and her eyes were squeezed nearly shut, yet she continued to slurp without a shred of dignity. Ji Yunian seriously suspected that the girl had no money and had come to scrounge a meal off her.
It wasn’t until two bowls of toasted chili beef noodles were finished that Xu Yinsheng finally caught her breath. She patted her flat little belly with satisfaction and looked at the mature beauty across from her.
“Praise the God of Vines! A-Teng.” She pressed her hands together in prayer and winked at Ji Yunian, clearly hinting at something.
Ji Yunian: ???
Seeing that Ji Yunian didn’t respond and instead looked completely bewildered, Xu Yinsheng repeated what she had just said.
Ji Yunian was still confused.
“The code, little sister, the code!” Seeing that Ji Yunian failed to understand, Xu Yinsheng had no choice but to remind her again: “It’s the doctrine of the God of the Vine Monsters.”
Ji Yunian: …
Although she knew the Huayuan Federation had freedom of religion, she hadn’t expected it to be this free. Not only did this girl mooch two bowls of beef noodles, but she was also trying to proselytize to her.
By the way, what kind of new breed was the God of the Vine Monsters? Was it the same species as the Flying Spaghetti Monster?
But meeting the girl’s clear, clean, large eyes, she replied tentatively: “The King of Heaven covers the Earth Tiger?”
“Wrong.”
Xu Yinsheng was greatly disappointed.
“But that’s not right. You clearly have His aura on you.” She leaned forward, getting close to Ji Yunian, and sniffed her scent, her face full of confusion.
Witnessing this bizarre behavior, Ji Yunian seriously doubted whether the girl had mental health issues.
“You really don’t know?”
Xu Yinsheng stared at Ji Yunian, her face full of disbelief.
Ji Yunian: …
Looking at Ji Yunian’s expressionless face—and the slight twitch at the corner of her mouth—Xu Yinsheng seemed to understand something. Her whole body deflated like a popped balloon, and she slumped forward onto the table.
“Fine, it looks like you really don’t know. But since I ate two bowls of your toasted chili beef noodles, I owe you a favor. If you have any wishes, I can help you fulfill them.”
“If you want money, I can make you a multi-millionaire—whether it’s cash, gold bars, land, or shares of equivalent value in physical enterprises. Anyway, all my irresponsible parents left me was money. If you want power, I can contact a few of my uncles and pull some strings to parachute you into a position. But getting the position is one thing; whether you can sit steadily in the future is another.”
Listening to this scam-like rhetoric that sounded like “Venmo me 50 bucks and I’ll make you a Great General in the future,” Ji Yunian couldn’t help but cough lightly. She secretly wondered if the girl was part of some fraud ring, but she wondered when fraud rings had started using such childish scripts.
“Well, it looks like you don’t really believe me.”
As if she could hear Ji Yunian’s inner thoughts, Xu Yinsheng saw no sign of interest from the other party and stopped pushing. She shrugged: “Then let’s try something else. Little sister, I saw you from the riverbank and it looked like you were worrying about something. Can you tell me? Maybe I can solve it for you, or at the very least, give you some advice.”
Looking at the cute girl in front of her—who had the youthful vibe of the girl next door yet called herself a “big sister” and had a face full of gossip—Ji Yunian rubbed her temples with a headache.
Where did this little character escape from, and which mental hospital was she from?
Calling herself a big sister? Ji Yunian was 1.8 meters tall, which was significantly taller than this girl-next-door!
“Consider the noodles my treat. It doesn’t count as a favor. Just go back to wherever you came from. Besides, you can’t solve my problems anyway.”
With that, Ji Yunian didn’t feel like saying more. After paying with her phone, she prepared to get up and leave.
“Hey, hey, wait!”
“Don’t go! Just talk to me. I’ll stop calling myself big sister, okay?”
“I can even call you ‘Sis.’ Just tell me about it.”
“Keeping things bottled up inside is bad for you. It’s easy for your mind to get twisted into a mental illness, just like the person in my family…”
Seeing Ji Yunian intending to leave, the girl who was ready to “eat melons” and hear gossip got anxious. She hurried forward and used every trick in the book to convince Ji Yunian to stay.
Seeing how persistent she was, Ji Yunian could only reluctantly agree and sat back down.
*****
“Just rush her and take the lead!”
Xu Yinsheng suddenly slammed the table, startling the other customers in the noodle shop. Even Ji Yunian was speechless.
Under the girl’s non-stop questioning, Ji Yunian simply told her about her recent predicament.
Firstly, the girl was right. Keeping things bottled up really could twist one’s mind into a mental illness—something Senior Zhang, who ran the clinic near the school, often mentioned.
Secondly, Ji Yunian really had been very distressed lately. On one hand, it was because of Jiang Chi, and on the other, it was because of herself.
Of course, she used some vague disguises for certain details, such as “I have a friend…”
After listening to Ji Yunian’s story, Xu Yinsheng immediately gave her suggestion with a “you’re too cowardly” expression.
“You—er, your friend—just can’t determine if she really likes the other person and whether she can respond to his love? If you ask me, just go straight for the jugular! Aggressively take the lead! Confirm if you truly love him or not.”
Hearing her words, Ji Yunian shook her head, then looked at the girl and asked: “What do you think love is?”
“What is love? I don’t know what others say. But for me and the one in my house, it’s just one side liking the other, and one side completely belonging to the other.”
“For example, me…” As Xu Yinsheng spoke to this point, it was as if a switch had been flipped inside her body. Her eyes began to glow, and she started talking incessantly.
“The one in my house loves me, and I love him. I am his everything, and he is mine. He can be my husband, my boyfriend, my family, or even my Master.”
“No matter how the title changes, he is my everything. My person, my soul, my thoughts all belong to him. He is the sovereign who controls my everything!”
“Just like what I wrote in the ‘Female Property Contract’ I drafted recently and have been urging the one in my house to sign…”
At this point, Xu Yinsheng’s expression became solemn and respectful.
“My lover, my boyfriend, my husband, my Master—I offer everything to him. Even if I lose my human status and no longer possess any human rights.”
“I am an object; my Master owns the property rights to me. I shall be submissive. I do not possess private property. I do not possess the concept of privacy.”
“My life, my body, my self, my personality, my soul, my human essence—all are his property. He may use, modify, taste, and enjoy them at will.”
“As long as he does not abandon me, I will do my best to meet his expectations and comply with my Master’s training and orders…”
Initially, Ji Yunian could maintain her facial expression, but the more she heard, the more wrong it felt. How did this “love” sound more and more like a twisted, perverted, “yandere” obsession?
“Oooooh! You definitely don’t know how good that feeling is!!”
“I absolutely love that feeling!”
“I can guarantee that in the whole world, no love between couples can exceed what we have!!”
The more she spoke, the more excited and hyper she became. Ji Yunian’s face grew increasingly strange, to the point where her mouth was twitching.
According to this girl’s description, this was more than just love. This was completely regarding oneself as the other’s parasite, surrendering oneself from body to soul entirely.
Even if one were to describe it using terms from certain forums or the “Blue Bird” app, it would be categorized under extreme tags like “Human Property,” “Sex Slave,” or “Pet.”
“Sorry, sorry, my old habit kicked in again.” Seeing Ji Yunian’s expression, Xu Yinsheng snapped out of it. Realizing she had exposed her true nature again, she immediately covered her mouth with an embarrassed, dry laugh.
“I’m mentally ill, and so is the one in my house. Please bear with me. The twisted love between us mental patients is just like this. Anyway, I think I really want to be his sex slave, but he’s the one who keeps insisting I act like a ‘human’ and keeps trying to treat my illness.”
“Hmph! We clearly agreed back then that everything I have belongs to him, and now he wants me to think independently… *Cough, cough, cough*, I’m getting off track. Little sister, tell me your understanding of ‘love’.”
“Love.”
Ji Yunian was completely dazed.
“Uh…” Being asked this, she was also stumped, temporarily forgetting the girl’s abnormality.
Love is a truly difficult thing to describe.
It is a wonderful existence that makes one feel lost yet impossible to forget.
Sometimes it is like a spring in the height of summer, bringing a heart-piercing coolness and sweetness to people;
Sometimes it is like a poison; once tainted, one cannot extricate themselves.
It can drive a person to improve, to change bad habits for their other half, and become incredibly excellent;
It can also destroy a person’s soul, pushing them into an endless abyss.
So…
Ji Yunian’s knuckles curled slightly, subconsciously tapping on the table. That familiar and kind face flashed through her mind. The “thump, thump, thump” of her tapping became crisper and more obvious. The calm, mirror-like surface of the toasted chili soup in the bowl reflected the mature beauty’s face—she was breathtakingly beautiful!
…What is love?
