But… can I really endure this?
“Xiaoxi, you’re awake? Hmm, this time the dosage was just right.”
When Xia Mengxi opened her eyes, the ceiling before her wasn’t exactly familiar, but the voice in her ear was someone she knew all too well.
From the words spoken, it wasn’t hard to figure out what had happened—her Noon Meal had been drugged, so she was now waking up in bed.
“Come on, Xiaoxi, it’s time for Afternoon Punishment.”
Punishment.
The moment she heard that word, Xia Mengxi couldn’t help but shiver. The events of the Morning were still fresh in her mind; that was simply inhuman torment.
Watching Lin Xue’er tie her to the bed again, Xia Mengxi immediately shut her eyes, clenched her fists, and tensed her body, bracing herself for the coming torment.
But just then, the person straddling her spoke in an unquestionable tone.
“Xiaoxi, relax a little, or I’ll get angry.”
At those words, Xia Mengxi unwillingly complied. She really didn’t want to, but had no choice, so she obediently relaxed her body.
“Mm, Xiaoxi’s so obedient. As a reward, I’ll give you another choice, how about that?”
Lin Xue’er’s idea of a reward, coming from her darkened self, was nothing good, as Xia Mengxi well knew.
But she had no choice but to agree, so she followed her three-step plan and started by putting up a slight show of resistance.
“I don’t want it.”
“Eh? You don’t want it? But this choice will let you skip tonight’s punishment, you know.”
As soon as Lin Xue’er said this, Xia Mengxi’s eyes flew open. She met Lin Xue’er’s gaze, then quickly looked away to the wall as if to hide her curiosity.
Seeing this, Lin Xue’er chuckled in delight, then climbed over Xia Mengxi’s body, lying on the other side of the bed to face her directly.
“You’re obviously curious, so why not be honest?”
“Hmph! I don’t believe you! You’ll definitely trick me!”
“How would I trick you? I’m not Xiaoxi, I wouldn’t pretend to feel sick or fake a fall for sympathy just to do bad things.”
“……”
If Xia Mengxi didn’t already know what was beneath Lin Xue’er’s mask, she really would have felt a deep sense of guilt from her sarcasm.
So to go along with Lin Xue’er, she immediately widened her eyes and hurriedly turned her face to the other side.
“So, Xiaoxi, want to hear the other choice?”
Lin Xue’er blew a breath into Xia Mengxi’s Ear, making her shudder. After a moment’s hesitation, she nodded.
“Hehe, in that case, listen carefully.”
Lin Xue’er’s so-called other choice was to add seven seconds to each round of this punishment. Seven seconds didn’t sound like much, but on top of the original fifteen seconds, it became pretty terrifying.
At this, Xia Mengxi complained inwardly. She knew Lin Xue’er’s offers were never good. Sure enough, Lin Xue’er planned to make the Afternoon Punishment so harsh she couldn’t even beg for life or death.
“Se…seven seconds…?”
“That’s right, Xiaoxi, just seven seconds. Think about it, you’re only taking on half a punishment more, maybe even one second less, and you get to skip a whole punishment tonight.”
Your math’s amazing, but calculating tickle time by math—isn’t that a bit much?
Even though Lin Xue’er’s tricks made her look like a fool, Xia Mengxi was rather pleased. If Lin Xue’er underestimated her intelligence, she could play the well-trained student even better.
“Well… fine. But Lin… but Xue’er, can you swear? Swear you absolutely won’t trick me. If you punish me again tonight, then… then I’ll never listen to you again!”
“Of course, no problem.”
Saying this, Lin Xue’er, under Xia Mengxi’s returned gaze, raised her hand and swore to the sky, “Unless Xiaoxi makes another mistake today, after this punishment I will not punish you again tonight. If I do, may I not die a good death.”
As expected of you, Lin Xue’er. Even your vows are worded so carefully and in detail. But… no matter how clever you are, you can’t outmatch me. I’m Old Six, with willpower way above your level.
“Is that good enough, Xiaoxi?”
“Mm… let’s do it.”
Going to endure that Morning torture again… damn it!
As Lin Xue’er plucked a Feather from the Chicken Feather Duster and brought it to Xia Mengxi’s Ear, she suddenly remembered that the Afternoon Punishment spots were completely different from the Morning.
Ear, Waist, and Thigh Side… these places shouldn’t be too bad…
“Yiya!!!”
What the hell?! I 屮艸芔茻!!! Big trouble!!
The instant Lin Xue’er teased her ear canal with the tip of the Feather, Xia Mengxi broke out in goosebumps. At the same time, her head buzzed with ringing, her eyes blinked uncontrollably, and her whole body convulsed out of control.
This sensation was totally different from the Morning. Now she felt her Brain Trembling, she couldn’t even count numbers.
“Ha… hu… ha… hu…”
So scary… so scary… so scary!!
The feeling of being forcibly emptied of all thought is truly terrifying for someone rational. Unable to keep count, after the torment, Xia Mengxi’s tears fell.
Damn it! Lin Xue’er really is warped from childhood. Otherwise, who else could invent such a torture method?
What’s worse, this body of mine is really messed up! Sensitive, sure, but it can take such a beating! How many seconds was that…? Oh! Those twenty-two seconds didn’t make her any less sensitive, instead making her feel everything even more clearly.
“Break time’s over, Xiaoxi, time to switch sides.”
Damn! Damn! Damn! It’s coming again… aaahhhh!!
After two rounds of Ear punishment, Xia Mengxi’s tears and drool were everywhere, but she didn’t care about her image at all. Because right now… she was going crazy!
Not good, really not good… she felt she couldn’t take this part, that Brain Trembling sensation was terrifying!
“How was it, Xiaoxi? Doesn’t it feel good?”
Good your head! Lin Xue’er, screw you!!! I #ï¿¥%…… ah!! No, please, no!!! Uu… I’m begging you… let me go!
Just like when she first encountered punishment in the Morning, Xia Mengxi’s defenses were broken. She was even scared enough to beg Lin Xue’er for mercy—she really, really couldn’t take this kind of punishment!
Yet, maybe because her mind had been made fuzzy by all this, her thoughts slipped out of her mouth uncontrollably. She really couldn’t endure Lin Xue’er’s punishment.
“Xue… Xue’er, can you… please not do my Ears anymore? I’m begging you, okay? I… I’m really scared!”
