Chapter 143

"What are you looking for? Need any help?" Su Yun asked as she set down the supplements, watching the busy Qin Xue from the edge of the bed.

"No need, no need. Just sit tight, Xiaoyun. Don't look at me," Qin Xue replied without even turning around, still rummaging through the wardrobe like she was preparing something big and mysterious.

Su Yun blinked blankly, dazed.

She watched the swaying curves in front of her and, for some reason, even her breathing grew heavier.

No, stop looking… study instead.

She crawled across the bed to the other side, reaching under to pull out her backpack and textbooks. After retrieving the modern history book she had previously rented out, she hopped barefoot down to the floor.

There wasn’t much left to do these next few days except wait for her updated ID and household registration to arrive. Once they did, she’d have to go back to the advisor. Aside from that, there was only this week’s pre-exam class meeting, where she’d need to think carefully about how to introduce herself to her classmates.

Everything else was on break. Time to study properly.

Hopefully, she could ace the finals.

If she got good enough grades… maybe she could even bring Qin Xue home.

Sitting at the desk, Su Yun couldn’t help but glance over her shoulder at the girl still crouched inside the wardrobe, rummaging through the bottom drawers.

Sister-in-law…

She recalled how Liu Fei had addressed Qin Xue just now.

Even Liu Fei now believed that Qin Xue was her girlfriend.

And this morning, Xuanxuan had said something similar—about not letting Qin Xue down.

Sigh… Su Yun sighed inwardly. A faint disappointment welled up inside her.

Maybe this was just part of Qin Xue’s “plan,” wasn’t it?

Since Qin Xue didn’t want a boyfriend, she might as well use Su Yun as a stand-in lover, just to fool others.

Suddenly, Qin Xue seemed to find what she was looking for. Her hands braced against the floor, and she crawled completely into the wardrobe.

"..." Su Yun couldn't help but stare again.

Her eyes landed on two slender thighs... with something slightly raised between them.

She gulped and forcibly suppressed the strange thoughts, forcing herself to focus on her studies.

Why was someone this grown still scared of cats anyway? Honestly.

Though her mind had been wandering into questionable territory just seconds ago, Su Yun was still very disciplined. She quickly snapped back to study mode and began reciting important historical points.

Click. 

The bedroom door creaked open once.

Su Yun kept studying. Five minutes later, it shut again. Probably Qin Xue stepping out and returning.

She also heard a faint sound—something like curtains being drawn.

But Su Yun didn’t pause, nor did she care what Qin Xue was doing at the desk.

Just as she was finishing a few chapters and entering peak focus, two small black shapes appeared on either side of the chair’s backrest near her head.

“?” Something felt odd. Her peripheral vision was blocked slightly, but it didn’t really interfere with reading, so she ignored it.

Until—

Something stepped on her head.

She flinched forward, bent at the waist.

That thing kept lightly pressing down on her head, and worse, one stepped on her head while the other leaned in from the side to kiss her cheek.

Squeezed from both sides, Su Yun could no longer concentrate.

"Sister Xue, stop teasing me! I'm trying to study—mmph!"

She spun around in frustration and grabbed those two black "rods" with her hands.

“Xiaoyun, you finally looked at me~”

Qin Xue was lounging half-reclined on the bed, propping herself up with one hand. Her naturally enchanting features, paired with a mischievous smile, made her even more irresistible.

(Note: The bedroom was small, so the desk and bed were placed close together.)

Su Yun stared at her seductive expression and that posture, immediately sensing something was off.

The "rods" in her hands… why were they so soft… and smooth?

She finally looked at what she was holding on each side.

“Aaah!” Su Yun screamed and instantly let go, jumping away from the chair and retreating to the door.

"Sister Xue, what are you doing?!" she shouted, her face instantly turning red, like a ripened apple.

“Hmph~” Qin Xue casually withdrew her two long, silky legs from the back of the chair.

She sat at the edge of the bed, slowly pulling down her skirt. Her legs, wrapped in sheer black stockings, crossed tightly and swayed slightly.

“I saw Xiaoyun studying so hard. I thought I’d give you a massage to help you relax. What’s wrong? Don’t like it?”

“…” Su Yun looked at the seductive older girl before her, completely speechless.

Qin Xue was wearing a loose, white shirt with only half the buttons fastened. Her pants from earlier had been swapped out for a short, black skirt.

From the outside, it didn’t look like “a massage”—it looked like… the kind of thing that only happened in certain shops without goldfish tanks.

And right now, Su Yun was the customer who had paid over a thousand yuan for the "deluxe package."

No—this setup probably cost several thousand.

Su Yun appeared calm on the surface—still and silent—but her heart was beating like crazy.

“I-I’m not tired… but thank you for the kind offer, Sister Xue. I’ll go study in the living room. You should rest.”

She lowered her head, avoiding eye contact.

But just as she reached for her book on the desk, a black stocking-clad foot stepped squarely on the white page.

Su Yun tugged on the book, but it wouldn’t budge.

“Sister Xue?” Her heart thumped hard. There was a hint of despair in her voice as she looked up at the beautifully dressed girl beside her.

The way Qin Xue positioned herself, the proximity… it hit Su Yun’s soft spot instantly. There was barely half a meter between them in this quiet room with the curtains drawn.

A faint scent drifted into her nose. She wasn’t sure if it came from Qin Xue’s upper body… or the black-chocolate leg right in front of her.

Her head spun.

“Sister Xue, don’t do this…”

“Xiaoyun~ As your girlfriend, I’ll make sure you’re always satisfied~” Qin Xue cooed sweetly. She even reached out with her other foot to poke Su Yun’s stomach.

She didn’t notice Su Yun’s trembling at all—just thought her blushing cheeks looked extra adorable.

“…” Su Yun said nothing. She stared quietly at the black-stockinged foot resting on her belly.

Finally, she couldn’t take it anymore—and grabbed the foot.

“Hey, Xiaoyun—ah! That tickles, don’t scratch!”

“!?” Qin Xue had planned to pull back her leg playfully, but in the next second, she was pinned down.

Before she could even react, in the blink of an eye, she found a soft, equally delicate body pressing down on her belly.

Su Yun was pushing down on her thigh, holding her firmly. Because of the odd posture, Qin Xue’s legs were suspended off the ground—she couldn’t move at all.

“Xiaoyun?”

Qin Xue wasn’t surprised. She actually placed her hands gently over her stomach and waited quietly.

Xiaoyun’s face… so red… so cute. But her dazed gaze didn’t look quite right...

Since when did Xiaoyun have such strength? Qin Xue couldn’t even budge… a bit scary. But her face was so adorable… hehe. She really wanted to bite her.

“…”

Su Yun stared at the black skirt below her. Just as her heated gaze reached its peak and edged toward collapse, she suddenly snapped back to her senses.

No. Sister Xue had always treated her so well. She couldn’t… she couldn’t do this.

She quickly withdrew the hand that was about to pull something open and tried to lift herself off.

But she suddenly realized—Qin Xue had locked her legs around her waist, refusing to let go.

“Sister Xue… I-I slipped… sorry.”

Qin Xue closed her eyes and pouted, not realizing her face was just as flushed as Su Yun’s.

“Oh.” Qin Xue finally released her legs.

She propped herself up with her hands and stared at Su Yun.

But deep inside, she felt a flicker of disappointment—and a bit of frustration.

“Sister Xue, I’m going to the living room to study. You should rest up,” Su Yun said hurriedly. Grabbing her book, she bolted out of the room and slammed the door behind her.

Qin Xue was left sitting on the bed alone.

She refastened her shirt, straightened her skirt, and sat there in a daze.

Just sat there. And sat there. And sat there.

Seduction.

But not the kind where she stripped down like in the bath. She needed to wear something nice.

That was what Xuanxuan had taught her.

Girls with good figures could use this method to test whether someone was interested in them.

So she had put on the uniform and black stockings that Xiaoyun liked.

And judging from Xiaoyun’s reaction just now… that meant she was interested, right?

Or maybe she really had slipped?

But Xiaoyun’s face was so red…

As the thoughts swirled in her head, a foolish grin spread across Qin Xue’s face.

The plan worked, so she’d just keep dressing like this at home. Maybe Xiaoyun would eventually give in—and eat her up.

And if she didn’t, then she’d find a way to eat Xiaoyun instead.

Xiaoyun was just too cute. She really wanted to bully her a little.

As expected, Teacher Xuanxuan’s advice really worked.

Compared to Qin Xue’s delighted mood, Su Yun—who was now trying to study in the living room—was already close to a mental breakdown.

She wasn’t reading at all. Her head was buried in her arms on the desk, and she was desperately tugging at her hair.

Qin Xue always pulled these weird moves when they were alone.

She had resisted all those long nights before—but today, for some reason, she had almost… crossed the line.

If she had, she would’ve betrayed Qin Xue.

Please, stop messing with me, Sister Xue.

I’m begging you…

You don’t want things to get awkward between us, do you?

Lying there, overwhelmed by strange feelings, Su Yun’s energy was completely drained.

And just like that, she fell asleep at the desk.
