Zhao Yicheng wasn’t clear on Bai Xu Yinsheng’s current situation.
However, he understood that this situation was similar to the previous Food Elixir incident. Well… listening to the constant noisy female voice on the other end of the phone, he felt a sense of certainty in his heart. He silently muttered to himself that it might even be more serious.
In both cases, her mind was clouded, she was unable to control herself, and she was trapped in a state from which she couldn’t escape.
When Zhao Yicheng arrived at the villa, he saw a mess of debris and shards scattered across the floor. Following the sound to the bedroom, he saw the two Little Yins. One was sitting cross-legged at the head of the bed, her arms folded across her chest, her head turned away, and her cheeks slightly puffed out in a pout. The other stood by the door, motionless, like an icy mountain beauty.
He glanced at Xiao Hei, then at Xiao Bai, finally resting his gaze on Xiao Hei. “What happened to Xiao Bai?”
“She was throwing a tantrum to see you. She said if she didn’t see you, she’d go on a hunger strike, commit suicide, or bite off her tongue.” Hei Xu Yinsheng curled her lip, her expression filled with nothing but disdain and contempt.
“What a pain in the neck, she’s so hard to serve. I didn’t even know I could be this noisy!” she added. “If it weren’t for the fact that she’s me, I would have punched her twice already.”
At that moment, a soft, delicate body suddenly pressed against Zhao Yicheng’s back. Bai Xu Yinsheng reached out and hugged his neck, her pink, doll-like face rubbing against his shoulder. In a sweet, milky voice, she said, “A’Zhao, A’Zhao… I missed you so much…”
Her voice sounded soft and chewy, like a piece of gummy candy that stuck to the heart and wouldn’t melt or wash away.
“No, this is too cringey. My fists are getting itchy!” Hei Xu Yinsheng ground her teeth. She reached out to peel Xiao Bai off Zhao Yicheng and lifted her by the scruff of her neck with one hand, as if she were carrying a kitten.
“I never thought love could turn a person into such a low-IQ moron!!! ‘I missed you so much’—ugh, isn’t that embarrassing? I’m literally going to throw up!!”
She pinched the soft flesh of the other girl’s cheek and spoke fiercely.
“Xiao Bai, wake up! We aspire to be Sigma Women!!”
“If you keep acting like such a Love Brain, I’m going to give you two good punches!!”
“Now, I’ve brought the person you wanted. You can rest properly tonight, right?”
“Mhm, mhm.”
Xiao Bai nodded her head in agreement.
Having received a response, Hei Xu Yinsheng looked back at Zhao Yicheng and glared at him. “You’re sleeping on the sofa tonight.”
“No! I want to sleep with A’Zhao!!”
“No way,” Hei Xu Yinsheng refused without hesitation. “I don’t trust this dog of a man, and I especially don’t want to share certain strange physical sensations and memories when we merge tomorrow.”
“Then the three of us can sleep together,” Bai Xu Yinsheng suggested. She blinked her teary eyes, looking aggrieved.
“If you won’t even satisfy me on this point, then I’ll go on a hunger strike, I’ll throw a fit, I’ll tear the house apart, and I’ll share the feeling of being hungry with you every day.”
Ultimately, in the back-and-forth exchange of words, the two women reached a compromise. They decided where Zhao Yicheng would sleep tonight, with whom, and how.
Throughout the entire negotiation process, they never once asked the person involved for his thoughts.
Jiefaluoke Zhao: …
Fine, fine, fine. Sure, sure, sure. This is how we’re playing it, huh?
Ugh… at least he wasn’t losing out.
—
Bright moonlight spilled through the gaps in the curtains onto the head of the bed. Three people were squeezed onto the double bed. The white-haired girl slept on the left side, while the man slept on the right, his hands firmly secured by a pair of handcuffs. The darkened girl slept between the two of them, acting as a barrier to cut off any interaction.
Zhao Yicheng had originally thought that tonight’s “threesome” would just be three people squeezed into one bed, but as soon as Hei Xu Yinsheng got under the covers, she introduced something a little different.
“This is called ‘carefulness keeps the ship sailing for ten thousand years.'”
In front of Zhao Yicheng, whose hands were bound by the handcuffs, Hei Xu Yinsheng smugly shook the key.
Then she took out another pair of handcuffs and locked her own left hand to Bai Xu Yinsheng’s right hand.
“Xiao Hei, I really wouldn’t do that kind of thing to you guys. Trust me,” Zhao Yicheng tried to defend himself.
To his surprise, Hei Xu Yinsheng nodded bluntly. “I know.”
“But I don’t trust Xiao Bai. I can believe that you won’t initiate anything, but I don’t believe that you, as a man, could restrain yourself.”
She snorted coldly and cast a glance at his lower half.
“After all, I don’t want to wake up in the morning and see two naked bodies pressed against each other in front of me.”
“Then Xiao Hei can join us,” Bai Xu Yinsheng chimed in at that moment, blinking her eyes innocently.
“Since Xiao Hei doesn’t want to watch two people hugging, we can all three hug.”
“Anyway, A’Zhao likes us so much and has taken care of us for over twenty years, so we should like A’Zhao too. If Xiao Hei is willing, then in the future, whether it’s the one on the bottom or the one in the middle, I’ll listen to whatever Xiao Hei says.”
Hei Xu Yinsheng: …
Zhao Yicheng: …
“How about it?” Bai Xu Yinsheng blinked her pure, innocent eyes. “Is Xiao Hei so moved by what I said that she hasn’t snapped out of it yet?”
Hei Xu Yinsheng was silent for a moment before looking up at Zhao Yicheng. Zhao Yicheng’s face turned slightly red as he cleared his throat and said, “I won’t…”
“Go to sleep,” Hei Xu Yinsheng interrupted him, turning around to pull Xiao Bai into her arms as they settled down.
***
In the blink of an eye, a week passed.
Ever since Bai Xu Yinsheng was struck by the Love Curse, the originally peaceful and harmonious life of the three had been completely shattered. If their previous life was like a trickling stream where one could see the final destination, it had now flooded into a vast ocean where the center was nowhere to be found.
Hei Xu Yinsheng felt like she was experiencing the life of a virtuous wife ahead of time. She had to constantly be on guard against her own “little cabbage” being snatched away by a certain dog of a man, while also preventing the overly enthusiastic little cabbage from going astray and offering herself up to other men.
She had also asked her future self how to break the Love Curse.
The response she received was: wait for the curse to lift naturally.
Hei Xu Yinsheng then asked if she could use the Ring of the Nibelung to break it.
The response was: No.
Even after being hit by the Love Curse, the Chaos-seeker nature in Bai Xu Yinsheng’s bones had not changed; in fact, it had become more severe. Every day she clamored to go out—climbing mountains today, surfing tomorrow, and skydiving the day after. If you tried to stop her, she would desperately tear the house apart and throw a tantrum.
It truly lived up to the old saying: love makes one lose their sanity!
During this week, Zhao Yicheng and Hei Xu Yinsheng seemed to have transformed into a father and mother, following behind her to handle everything and clean up her messes.
“Ah, I can’t take it! I’m going to die of exhaustion! I’ve never seen someone so capable of making trouble.” Hei Xu Yinsheng, acting as the “mother,” slumped onto the sofa with effort, her legs resting unceremoniously on the coffee table, not wanting to move an inch.
Zhao Yicheng was also lying on the sofa at this moment, his face full of fatigue. He held a bottle of mineral water and had already gulped down half of it.
“Here.” He handed the mineral water to Hei Xu Yinsheng.
Hei Xu Yinsheng didn’t care about the saliva on it. She took the water and drank it in large gulps.
“Hey, Zhao, can I make a deal with you?” she suggested while wiping her mouth.
“What?” Zhao Yicheng asked back.
“I’ll give you 1,000,000. For the rest of this month, Xiao Bai is yours. Whether you stay by her side, tether her to you, or lock her in a Cat Cage, it’s up to you.”
“In short, I don’t want to see her again for the rest of the month.”
To this, Zhao Yicheng waved his hand with effort, signaling his refusal.
Xiao Hei was clearly speaking out of anger; she was just saying it, it couldn’t be taken seriously.
“A’Zhao, Xiao Hei.”
Bai Xu Yinsheng, dressed in a cool bikini, emerged from the kitchen with a popsicle hanging from her mouth. She looked at the man and woman collapsed in exhaustion on the sofa.
“Uh… it was just surfing. How did you guys get so tired? You’re not like me. Like I always say, if you’re bad at it, you just need to practice more.”
Hearing this, Zhao Yicheng’s composure remained relatively intact, but Hei Xu Yinsheng burst out with a curse.
“Whose goddamn surfing involves losing their own coordinates? Do you have any idea how worried we were!”
“If I hadn’t stopped Zhao Yicheng, he probably would have dove into the sea to fish you out!!”
