Soft, smooth, sweet…
This was a sensation unlike the fleeting touches before—a wondrous feeling that Ling Xiaoyou wished would last a bit longer.
But soon, she snapped back to reality.
Realizing what Bai Shuanglian was doing, her small face instantly turned redder than ever before, as if steam were rising from her head.
She hurriedly pulled away, her small hand trembling as she pointed at Bai Shuanglian.
“You you you you…”
This time, Ling Xiaoyou couldn’t even form a complete sentence.
She could only point at Bai Shuanglian with a face flushed crimson, her mind tangled into a mess like knotted earphone wires.
“What about me?”
Bai Shuanglian blinked innocently, tilting her head.
“You you you…”
But Ling Xiaoyou didn’t even hear her words.
She just kept pointing and repeating the same syllable, her little brain completely crashing, her thoughts frozen in place.
Seeing this, Bai Shuanglian let out a soft laugh, glanced at the delicate hand pointing at her, then lowered her head and extended her pink tongue to lick Ling Xiaoyou’s finger.
A warm, wet sensation spread.
The shock instantly snapped Ling Xiaoyou out of her daze.
She quickly withdrew her hand and glared at Bai Shuanglian, puffing her cheeks in anger.
“You’re a pervert! Why did you lick my hand?”
“And just now you even…”
Ling Xiaoyou’s voice grew softer, her cheeks turning scarlet.
She was too embarrassed to finish describing what had just happened.
“What else did I do just now?”
Bai Shuanglian deliberately put on a harmless expression, as if she hadn’t just forcefully kissed Ling Xiaoyou—tongue and all.
She just wanted to tease this easily embarrassed little spirit writer.
After all, seeing her adorable reactions was really entertaining.
Ling Xiaoyou felt so ashamed that she didn’t dare lift her head.
She could only lower it, her voice as faint as a mosquito.
“You kissed me! And you even…”
At that point, she couldn’t continue.
It was simply too embarrassing.
If she hadn’t already been kissed twice by Bai Shuanglian before and built up a bit of resistance, she might have fainted from embarrassment by now!
Ling Xiaoyou secretly lifted her head to peek at Bai Shuanglian, like a small white rabbit checking for a big bad wolf.
Then she saw Bai Shuanglian’s smiling face, overflowing with amusement.
Instantly, shame and anger surged within her.
What the heck!
You’re the one who did all these outrageous things!
Yet I’m the one blushing in shame, while you act like nothing happened!
Why?!
Ling Xiaoyou was furious.
She turned her head away, refusing to pay any more attention to this infuriating person.
Seeing this, Bai Shuanglian blinked, then tentatively poked Ling Xiaoyou’s soft cheek.
Hmm, so bouncy, and so smooth.
But Ling Xiaoyou only glanced at her, let out a light snort, and turned her head away again.
Next, Bai Shuanglian reached out and poked Ling Xiaoyou’s waist.
The instant she was poked, Ling Xiaoyou’s body stiffened, but she immediately resumed ignoring Bai Shuanglian, as if nothing had happened.
Yet Bai Shuanglian clearly noticed Ling Xiaoyou’s reaction.
She was like a child discovering a fun new toy, her eyes lighting up with mischief.
With a wicked grin, Bai Shuanglian extended her slender, fair fingers—smooth as polished jade—and poked Ling Xiaoyou’s waist again.
Ling Xiaoyou’s delicate body trembled.
Then, as if realizing Bai Shuanglian’s intentions, she immediately shifted her position, taking Xiaoyu from her thigh and turning her back to Bai Shuanglian.
But Bai Shuanglian didn’t seem willing to let Ling Xiaoyou go.
Seeing her turn, Bai Shuanglian moved as well, coming to Ling Xiaoyou’s side and poking her sensitive waist again.
Under Bai Shuanglian’s relentless poking, Ling Xiaoyou’s face turned crimson, both from the assault on her sensitive spot and from anger at Bai Shuanglian’s antics.
She immediately glared at Bai Shuanglian with wide eyes, making what she thought was a fierce expression.
Her two tiny, cute canine teeth seemed to warn Bai Shuanglian that she wasn’t someone to be messed with.
Seeing the little cutie bristling, Bai Shuanglian chuckled softly and didn’t push further.
She ruffled Ling Xiaoyou’s small head, and before the latter could bite her hand, she withdrew it.
“Then I’ll go handle things for now. See you later.”
Bai Shuanglian stood up, preparing to leave.
Suddenly, she paused, as if a thought had struck her.
She looked at Ling Xiaoyou, her eyes sparkling.
“By the way, I don’t even know your name yet. Can you tell me?”
“…Hmph! After everything you did, you still want me to tell you my name?!”
Ling Xiaoyou was momentarily stunned, then quickly turned her head away, fuming.
At her words, the light in Bai Shuanglian’s eyes dimmed, and she looked like a kitten abandoned by its owner—utterly pitiful.
Seeing this, Ling Xiaoyou felt a strange pang of sympathy.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but then caught herself and shook her head vigorously.
Why should I tell her!
She did all those embarrassing things to me and even bullied me just now!
And yet she still wants my name?
Dream on!
But…
Ling Xiaoyou watched Bai Shuanglian’s dejected figure.
Aside from those shameful acts, she hadn’t really done anything bad to her.
She’d even slain a Devil, saved Xiaoyu, and helped her.
It’s just a name.
It couldn’t hurt to tell her, right?
Hmph, this is just to repay her for her help earlier!
Besides, as Nemeses, if we don’t even know each other’s names, what kind of Nemeses are we?!
But… would Nemeses do such embarrassing things to each other?
Remembering those two intimate moments, Ling Xiaoyou’s face instantly turned red.
She shook her head to dispel the thoughts.
She looked at Bai Shuanglian’s lonely back and called out.
“Wait!”
Bai Shuanglian turned.
Her beautiful, cool face was now filled with sadness.
Ling Xiaoyou hesitated, then turned her head, cheeks red, and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito.
“Listen up—I’m Ling Xiaoyou. I’ll be your lifelong Nemesis…”
Eh?
A warm hand patted her head.
Ling Xiaoyou looked up to see Bai Shuanglian had appeared beside her, a radiant smile on her stunning face.
“Ling Xiaoyou, huh? That’s a lovely name.”
“Then let me introduce myself again. I’m Bai Shuanglian. I’m glad we can be entangled for a lifetime.”
Looking at the girl’s smile, as warm as sunlight after winter, Ling Xiaoyou was stunned.
Then she quickly turned her head away.
From Bai Shuanglian’s angle, she could still see the blush on Ling Xiaoyou’s face.
“Who wants to be entangled with you for a lifetime! We’re supposed to be lifelong Nemeses!”
Bai Shuanglian smiled without refuting her, simply listening quietly to the girl’s grumbling.
Neither of them noticed the gaze watching from the edge of the void.
Hong Lingyan: Amazing! So satisfying! Give me more!
