She wanted to go to all the places Bai Qu had forbidden her to go before.

As if she was taking this opportunity to silently accuse Bai Qu’s tyranny.

Hearing You-You’s words, both Wei Yang and Ji Lin fell weirdly silent. They wanted to ask – are you really eighteen? You’re not a child anymore right?

“Uh, is something wrong?”

Seeing the two people’s strange expressions, You-You sat up straight with a serious expression. “If it’s inconvenient, I can leave the car.”

Although You-You was very stupid, her brain worked just fine.

And she had a huge sense of self-awareness.

Before, in the real world, only when she was with Bai Qu that You-You would be a little unscrupulous and unreasonable, often angering the former. 

In front of others, You-You was often sensible and courteous.

Wei Yang, Ji Lin: …..

The girl was extremely beautiful, with fascinating eyes. At the moment, she had a serious expression on her childish and delicate face, which made a charming contrast. Instead of decreasing her beauty, it enhanced it, making her look more dazzling.

Something flashed in his eyes, and with raised eyebrows, Wei Yang laughed. “Convenient. It’s convenient. But, dear aunt, could you please choose which place to go first?”

‘Pick one first?’

You-You frowned, puzzled. Beside her, Ji Lin, who had been silent, said: “Go to Animation City.”

His voice was low and indifferent; just like its owner.

Wei Yang glanced at him in surprise, but seeing that You-You raised no objections, he proceeded to drive to the biggest and most luxurious Animation Centre in the city.

Throughout the drive, You-You constantly looked out towards the city and its bustling people with a dazed expression.

As soon as they arrived, You-You jumped out of the car and was lost in the sea of people. Leaving behind a speechless Wei Yang to chase after her.

“I say, haven’t we already brought her here? Why are you going to follow her? Aren’t you going to drive to the club?”

Dissatisfied with Ji Lin’s complaints, Wei Yang, who had been squeezed in the crowd, with messy clothes, felt his heart become gloomy and his originally good mood was soured.

“There are so many people here. It’s making me uncomfortable.”

Glancing at Wei Yang lightly, and in Wei Yang’s eyes, Ji Lin’s attitude and tone were disdainful. “Also, wasn’t it you that went to chase her first?”

Wei Yang: …….

How could he have known that she’d run so fast, that she would be gone in the blink of an eye?

There were too many people here, so blindly searching for her was not the way to go. Ji Lin frowned slightly, then remembered what she had said in the car.

“To the claw machines.”

Tugging Wei Yang along with him, Ji Lin followed the signs that led to the claw machines.

“She must’ve gone to get a rabbit doll.”

“Damn rabbit doll.”

Saying this in a murmur, Wei Yang looked around the crowd and pursed his lips worriedly.

    …

Ten minutes later, they found You-You on the fifth floor.

Seeing that she was surrounded by people but paid no attention; only focusing on getting the rabbit doll, the two’s facial expressions darkened. 

What the hell was she thinking?

Doesn’t she know it’s dangerous to play alone in such a place?

Couldn’t she be a little more guarded?

Taking advantage of his height, Wei Yang squeezed through the crowds with brute force and firmly patted You You’s head. With a mock fierce tone, he chastised, “Running around recklessly again; don’t you know that your eldest and second brothers are always looking for you?”

“Ah! My rabbit doll!”

Seeing the rabbit doll, which she had managed to pick up with great difficulty, fell down because of a moment of lost concentration, You-You clutched her head in pain; she seriously wanted to cry ah!

When she raised her head to see the culprit and found it was Wei Yang, she wanted to cry even more.

‘Aahh! How was he as annoying as Bai Qu?’

Every time something like this happens, she gets caught.

“Uh…”

Seeing the girl’s teary face and accusatory eyes, Wei Yang coughed lightly and insincerely said, “How about I let you play for a while before heading back?”

You-You: …..

Ji Lin: ……

Onlookers: “Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!”

The crowd of onlookers couldn’t stop laughing at the dumb brothers and sister. As such, only Ji Lin noticed the two delinquents with blond dyed hair spit and leave.

Rubbing his temples, Ji Lin strode over to the two of them and asked You-You, “If we catch the rabbit doll, can we finally leave?”

You-You nodded her head.

For some reason, she was afraid of Ji Lin.

“Alright. You stand to the side and watch me do it.”

“Eh?”

A minute later, You-You confusedly held a pink rabbit doll in her arms.

Not only You-You was confused about what happened. Wei Yang was also puzzled.

He looked to the expressionless Ji Lin and asked, “When did you learn to play that? How come I don’t know about it?”

Ji Lin looked at Wei Yang in cold silence.

In fact, Ji Lin himself didn’t know how he could do it either. He just said he would get the doll for her, and then he did it. It just came naturally to him.

    …

Back in the car, You-You was a little lost.

She held the rabbit doll, occasionally stealing glances at Ji Lin. Her little face held a torn expression – for a moment, she felt like Ji Lin was Bai Qu. But that was impossible. Bai Qu didn’t know that she was bound to Xixi. 

You-You was conflicted. She had gone to the amusement park and tossed Ji Lin or Bai Qu to the back of her head.

She had been walking to the haunted house, but stopped in her tracks and timidly turned her back to the two boys. In a somewhat ingratiating tone, she asked, “Would you like to come to the haunted house with me?”

Seeing this, Wei Yang broke out into laughter and Ji Lin couldn’t help but want to laugh as well.

He nodded and instructed, “Stay behind us later and don’t wander around.”

The more time he spent with this person, the more he came to like her. However, along with that, he continuously found many things wrong in her that needed correction.

You-You nodded miserably, but she didn’t know that all her interaction with the two had been seen by a pair of eyes from beginning to end.

Chapter 12: Fate Trading System (12)

TL: Vaishu
ED: Anna
PR: Dark
QC: Vaishu

Qu Feiqing saw the traces she left on Su Xin’s neck last night. She reached out to touch them, but found that Su Xin’s body was cold and sticky, and she could smell a faint aroma of wine when she got close. 

It was not difficult for Qu Feiqing to imagine what was going on. She tucked Su Xin’s quilt and waited for the imperial doctor to come.

Shu Quan hurriedly invited the imperial physician, and after the imperial physician saluted Qu Feiqing, he performed a ceremony where he put a silk cloth over her wrist to diagnose the pulse and then withdrew the cloth. 

“Your Majesty, this girl has caught a cold, and in addition to the weather she is not used to, it seems to have gotten worse. It will be fine when she takes the prescribed medicine on time.”

The imperial doctor wrote down the prescription and talked about the things that should be avoided and paid attention to, before leaving with the medicine box.

“Go make the decoction.”

Shu Quan nodded, took the prescription and rushed to the imperial apothecary, and then ran back to make the decoction.

Qu Feiqing opened Su Xin’s quilt, picked Su Xin up bridal style, and went to the small bath chamber of the palace.

Su Xin groaned and shrank in Qu Feiqing’s arms.

Qu Feiqing untied Su Xin’s clothes lightly and wiped Su Xin’s body with a towel soaked in water.

Because Su Xin was asleep, it wasn’t easy to get her into the water.

Qu Feiqing didn’t expect that her mouth would be so ruthless. The girl’s white skin had traces of dark purple or red, which made one reminisce.

After Qu Feiqing wiped Su Xin’s body, she realised that she had forgotten to get a change of clothes for  Su Xin. In desperation, she could only hold the bare Su Xin in her arms.

She walked quickly, fearing that Su Xin would be seriously ill if she was exposed to the cold for too long.

After tucking Su Xin into the quilt, she went to the closet to look for Su Xin’s usual clothes.

After finding two pieces of obscene clothes and trousers, Qu Feiqing put them on Su Xin.

First the undergarment, Qu Feiqing pressed her lips and tied the string to form a knot on the back,  to protect the two trembling snow white balls.

After putting on Su Xin’s clothes and pants, Qu Feiqing covered her with a quilt, and sat on the edge of the bed looking at Su Xin’s burning face.

Shu Quan came with the medicine, which was too hot.

“Put the medicine here, you can leave first.”

Qu Feiqing took the bowl, and Shu Quan looked up at her, then walked out.

Strange… Empress Qu hasn’t come to see the Miss for ten consecutive days, but now the Empress is so caring for the Miss because of her illness.

Qu Feiqing stirred with a spoon to cool the medicine.

She then put the bowl down and went to wake Su Xin up.

Su Xin opened her eyes with difficulty and saw a bowl of medicine in front of her.

Su Xin shook her head, took the concoction, and drank half of it in one breath, frowning at the bitter taste.

Su Xin continued to drink the rest, stuffed the bowl into Qu Feiqing’s hand, wiped the corner of her mouth, and then continued to lie down.

Qu Feiqing stuffed Su Xin’s mouth with a candied fruit, and Su Xin’s frowning brows slowly eased.

After that, Qu Feiqing left, since she had her own affairs to deal with.

Su Xin woke up in the evening. Shu Quan, who had been guarding her bed, quickly helped her get up.

“Miss, you are awake! Are you hungry?”

“A little hungry…”

“Miss, wait. I’ll bring you porridge.”

Su Xin looked down at her clean clothes and rubbed her eyebrows tiredly.

Fourteen, I regret it.

[What do you regret? Did it happen?]

No, I didn’t ask her if I was beautiful at the good time yesterday!

Su Xin wailed in her heart, ‘Mission ah Mission!

Last night, both of them were confused and in disorder. If she had asked if she was beautiful, Qu Feiqing would definitely answer in the affirmative.

[That’s right. I forgot to remind you.]

Fourteen also felt a little upset. It hadn’t paid attention to the mosaic process and it indeed had missed an opportunity.

After Su Xin finished eating the white porridge, she planned to put on her clothes and sit on a chair. She slept for too long, and she now became lazy and weak.

After drinking the medicine at night, Su Xin fell asleep again until dawn the next day.

The next day, the weather was fine and the sun was shining. She was ready to get dressed and go for a walk in the courtyard, bask in the sun, and get rid of her illness.

Shu Quan followed her step by step, for fear that something would happen to her.

Su Xin was bored, so she started to play a game of tic tac toe with Shu Quan.

There was a piece of paper with 9 squares on it, one person draws circles and another does cross. Whoever can get 3 in a row wins.

In the beginning, Shu Quan didn’t know how to play it, so Su Xin kept winning. Fortunately, the game was very simple, and Shu Quan learned it right away. The two sides were in a tie. Later Su Xin continued to win.

“Shu Quan, it’s obvious that you are deliberately letting me win.”

Su Xin put the pen on the table and looked at Shu Quan.

“No, Miss is too smart and I’m too stupid.”

Shu Quan pursed her lips and smiled shyly.

“What are you both playing?”

A child’s voice came from the door, Su Xin and Shu Quan stood up and bowed to the eight or nine year old child.

“Greetings, Your Highness.”

This child was the son of Qu Feiqing’s brother. She imprisoned her brother, and then took his child and raised him personally. Although it was not officially stated, everyone assumed that the child was the prince of the country.

“You can stand, are you the woman my aunt brought back?”

Qu Xing Chen raised his chin. His aunt never liked to be close to others, so it was really rare to bring someone to the palace. He had been completing the tasks assigned to him by his aunt a few days ago, so he couldn’t come and have a look at what this person was like, earlier. 

Su Xin nodded and tidied up the table next to her.

“You still haven’t told me what you were playing.”

“It’s a type of game….”

Su Xin told his Royal Highness the rules of the game, and Qu Xing Chen was eager to try.

Su Xin blasted Qu Xing Chen for several rounds, and Qu Xing Chen gradually mastered the rules, and there was a scene where neither of them let the other win. 

The game was okay to play for a while, but after a long time, it got boring.

 When Qu Xing Chen blocked Su Xin’s road with a smile, he suddenly flinched, and quickly put down the pen in his hand and got up from the chair, looking at the direction of the courtyard door.

The next moment Qu Feiqing walked in from the courtyard gate, and Qu Xing Chen bowed a stiff salute.

“Come join us Royal Aunt.”

Su Xin and Shu Quan also saluted. Su Xin looked at Qu Xing Chen’s movements. This child was so sensitive to even Qu Feiqing’s breath.

“Chen’er, it’s getting late, you go back first.”

It was clearly still early and the sun was shining brightly. 

“Yes aunt.”

Qu Xing Chen quickly walked out without question, not even turning his head to look at Su Xin.

“He seems to be scared of you.”

“Hmm.”

Qu Feiqing responded lightly, she was probably the shadow of her nephew’s heart, an existence of extraordinary terror.

Qu Feiqing waved for the servants guarding in the courtyard to go back. Only the two of them remained.

“Your sickness has healed?”

“Almost all better, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty.”

“After all, it’s my responsibility if you are sick.”

That night was so ridiculous, Qu Feiqing was half drunk and half awake and did not control her strength.

Qu Feiqing couldn’t forget that night: The moon was bright and Su Xin’s long silky hair spread across her back. Her half-dangling eyes and red cheeks.

“Then…do you think I am beautiful?”

No matter how I ask, it’s fine, even if I’m treated as a narcissist, it doesn’t matter. If Qu Feiqing admits this, then I can pat my butt and leave.

Qu Feiqing smiled, why is this woman so persistent in front of such a problem?

Qu Feiqing wanted to tease her, so she didn’t speak.

Fourteen, she is playing with me. Will she die if she admits I’m beautiful?

[Uhh…This…]

She messes with people like that. Even when we were rolling around before, she didn’t say anything sweet to me, even under pleasure!

[Host let me remind you that you made the first move and did the deed too. While tossing around, you also forgot to ask her.]

You’re actually defending her! You don’t love me anymore!

[Host you are so dramatic. Fine I won’t do it again.]

…Fourteen was speechless.

The following days became unremarkable, Su Xin could only stay in this palace, and couldn’t walk around. She was waiting for the second chance to pick up the lead, and she would ask questions after getting together.

Qu Feiqing was in a bad mood today, and a group of people in the court called her to accept the male concubine and open the branches and leaves. She wanted to smash them in the face with something on the spot.

If it’s those men who are going to get pregnant, she might have thought about it, but that’s impossible. Want her to be touched by a man and then get pregnant and have children? Don’t even think about it.

Putting aside her hatred of men touching her, she would be physically weak when she is pregnant, and it would be even more dangerous for the next few months. It would be so easy to kill her. She does not need children, nor does she need to do these things.

She had only wanted to win the throne and become an Empress to teach the people, who insulted and oppressed her mother and her, a lesson. It was also to achieve her own ambitions of dominating the Kingdom.

However as a Ruler it was expected of them to produce an heir, as the people wanted someone only with the surname Qu to sit on the throne. It was for this reason that she brought her brother’s son, Qu Xing Chen and raised him.

Those who are loyal to her, hope that her heirs can inherit the country, and those who want to harm her also hope that she can conceive and have children so that she is weaker.

Still, these people have no shame, they would promote their own sons one after the other, as if it was a competition on who sells first. Qu Feiqing sneered. Do they think that she is so naive? Their demeanors were so troublesome.

Concubines are considered romantic and sound good. But for Qu Feiqing, it was like taking a prostitute and dressing it up in a noble status to hide the filth. Those male concubines don’t give her money, but instead she has to pay to support them, which she found extremely disgusting.

After hundreds of years of conceptual suppression of women, Qu Feiqing alone was unable to change this, even if she was an Empress. She was an exception in several dynasties and the most dazzling existence among the Four Kingdoms.

Qu Feiqing retired in a bad mood, she changed her clothes and looked at the memorials and felt even more unhappy. She left the Imperial Study Room and planned to take a walk to change her mood.

When Qu Feiqing walked to the Royal Garden, she heard a burst of laughter.

In the pavilion among the flowers, two people were sitting close together, one of them covered her face with silk, smiling happily and she had to snuggle up to the other person.

Su Xin grinned, wondering how fake the Princess’ smile beside her was.

“Younger sister is in good spirits, and I heard her laughter from outside the Imperial Garden.”

When Qu Fei Yun heard Qu Feiqing’s voice, it was like a mouse meeting a cat, and she immediately sat upright and bowed to Qu Feiqing.

“Greetings Royal sister.”

   Author’s note:

Qu Fei Yun: Tell me a joke.

Su Xin: Oh, when I was walking in the street one day…

Qu Fei Yun: Hahahahahahahaha

Su Xin: [? ? ? ] Is she sick?

Chapter 8.1: The Movie Queen’s Little Fortune Butterfly (8)

Lin Qinglu didn’t know why she suddenly pretended to be asleep.

When she realized what she was doing, she carefully kept her breathing slow and even.

Come to think of it, it seemed that she and Song Pianzhen were both in the backseat, with only an arm’s breadth between them.

Nobody spoke and a tranquil silence descended upon them.

So, when she looked over towards Song Pianzhen, whose swan-like neck was slightly slumped, Lin Qinglu’s eyes coincidentally flitted shut.

Anxious, she did her best to breathe evenly. However, her heartbeat seemed very loud and erratic.

Fortunately, Song Pianzhen couldn’t hear it.

But due to her racing heart, Lin Qinglu wasn’t able to hear anything else either.

After waiting for a long time, Lin Qinglu didn’t sense any movement in the car.

Today, she was feeling quite curious, so she sleepily turned around and cracked one eye open to sneakily look at Song Pianzhen.

Song Pianzhen had her headphones on and was gazing out the window. A ray of sunlight shone on her hair, illuminating it with a warm light.

Suddenly, Song Pianzhen turned around and looked at her.

Lin Qinglu subconsciously closed her eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep.

Then, she felt the blanket shift.

Turns out, Song Pianzhen had turned to adjust her blanket properly.

The ride was smooth, and the temperature from the air-conditioning was comfortable. Lin Qinglu had a warm blanket draped over her, and when she woke up, she found that she had unknowingly fallen asleep at some point in time.

Groggily, she opened her eyes and saw the laughing Song Pianzhen hadn’t left.

“Ms. Lin, we’re here.”

Maintaining her calm composure, Lin Qinglu replied in a cool manner, “Okay.”

She sat up, stretched her hand to flip her hair, and looked out the window.

Outside the window stood a glamorous, high-rise building with a red carpet rolled out at the entrance, and silhouettes of people entering and exiting.

It didn’t seem to be an established brand.

“Lele had mentioned that this place would be quite crowded. Ms. Lin, you’ve got a lot of fans, so shall we ask the driver to bring the food here?” Jian Yixin asked softly.

‘Lele? Such an intimate form of address?

Lin Qinglu pursued her lips and decided on a different approach, “Is it really okay to trouble that gentleman’s driver like that?”

She glanced at Xiao Dong and thought, How come Song Pianzhen said that so naturally?

‘How familiar is she with the driver’s boss?’

Watching Mu Qing-Xue leave, You-You scratched her hair, feeling a little puzzled.

She really couldn’t understand Mu Qing-Xue’s mood swings.

She’s normal for a moment, and suddenly odd the next.

Yawning lazily with a hand over her mouth, You-You sucked in a breath. Her eyes, which were originally hazy, suddenly became clear because of the moisture in them.

As she slowly approached her desk, she saw that Mu Qing-Xue had bought her porridge and two dumplings.

“Hey, I want to eat meat.”

You-You, who naturally liked meat, wasn’t satisfied with this food and was still famished. After washing up quickly, she gobbled up all the steamed dumplings and drank almost all of the red date porridge. 

“Um, Xixi, what shall I do now?”

After eating and drinking, You-You reclined on her pink bed. Rubbing her full tummy, she questioned Xixi.

“Mu Qing-Xue isn’t here, and there are no classes over the weekend, so what should I do?”

Since she was in a foreign world, she was heavily dependent on Xixi.

As Bai Qu wasn’t by her side, the only one she was familiar with was the mysterious, white lotus system that transported her to this place.

【Host, you’re allowed to do anything that you want.】

【This system isn’t going to restrict the host, but host has to know her limitations.】

【This system hopes that the host will always keep the task in mind.】

“Mm. Don’t worry Xixi! I definitely won’t forget the mission!”

After squinting comfortably,  You You stared at the pink ceiling above her, and suddenly smiled in surprise, “then, can I go out to play now?”

【Alright.】

“Great!”

She immediately sat up on the bed, and excitedly exclaimed, “I’ll go to the amusement park to ride the Ferris wheel, visit the haunted house, and then go to Animation City to catch little rabbit dolls.

    【……】

Isn’t her host too childish?

But thinking of Mu Qing-Xue’s favorability towards You-You, Xixi relaxed.

After all, all of the other past hosts had never raised the task target’s favorability to such a high level, so perhaps she made the right choice this time?

‘Follow your words’, You-You thought as she hopped to her closet to pick out some clothes.

Originally, You-You had wanted to wear a fancy red and pink dress, but Xixi warned her that it wouldn’t be suitable for the activities she was going to do, since it could ride or fly up. So instead, You-You chose a pair of black ripped jeans and a top with short pink sleeves.

The style and brand were very simple.

Carrying a small, exquisite purse that only contained her mobile phone, keys, ID card, and a bank card, You-You locked her dorm door and left in high spirits.

When You-You first got to another time and space, she was very curious about this world.

Obviously, this world was like the real one, but the fact alone that she could crossover was enough to amaze her.

So, when Wei Yang drove out the school gate, he saw a delicate red and pink figure, lightly caressing the bushes.

Her posture made her look like she was trying to find treasure in the bushes.

Pff!

Nearly choking on his saliva, Wei Yang’s lips twitched. In one swift move, he drove his car behind You-You, honked the horn, and rolled down his window. 

“Bai You-You, are you looking for treasure?” 

” Ah?”

When she turned around and saw Wei Yang, she suddenly rolled her eyes. “Wei Yang, why did you scare me?” 

She wasn’t a Buddha, she held grudges. Yesterday, Wei Yang had spooked her, and she remembered it clearly. She didn’t hesitate before branding him as a villain internally.

“My goodness! Are you blaming me for your own guilty conscience?” 

Few can beat Wei Yang in a battle of words. But, You-You’s unreasonable childish logic is one of the exceptions.

Seeing the young lady’s beads of sweat and her flushed face, Wei Yang squinted and suddenly spoke.

“Why don’t you hop into the car? We’ll drive you to your destination.” 

Seeing You-You’s hesitation, Wei Yang smiled evilly and pointed to the sun, “If you really want to be charred to a crisp, I won’t force you.” 

‘Never!’ 

She promptly opened the car door and went inside. When she entered the car and saw Ji Lin dressed in a white shirt and black pants with an indifferent expression, she understood why Wei Yang had said ‘we’.

“I’m going to the amusement park and Animation City.” 

When she entered the car, the air conditioning quickly soothed the dullness in her heart. You-You squinted in enjoyment and even her tone became light and soft.

“And the Food Court.” 

Without Bai Qu around to manage her, You-You was like a wild horse without reins. Joyfully playing and having fun all throughout the time.

Chapter 11: The Courtesan’s Daily Life (11)

TL: Vaishu
ED: Anna
PR: crazyformyself
QC: Vaishu

“Your Majesty, You are drunk.”

Su Xin’s hand stroked Qu Feiqing’s back.

Qu Feiqing did not wear a fancy court dress and instead wore regular clothes. Her hair was loosely tied behind her head, looking very unruly.

Qu Feiqing’s body stiffened and instinctively pushed against Su Xin, but Su Xin hugged her tighter. 

Su Xin’s heart lamented that Qu Feiqing was too kind and too predictable.

Qu Feiqing couldn’t see Su Xin’s face and frowned irritably. She hated others being so close to her. Even if it was a warm hug, she didn’t need it.

Qu Feiqing used her internal force and abruptly pulled Su Xin away from her embrace.

Su Xin took advantage of the situation, and as she slammed to the ground, she pulled Qu Feiqing as well. Qu Feiqing was led to rush forward and pressed against Su Xin.

As their lips collided, Su Xin couldn’t help licking, hissing, and bleeding.

Su Xin hadn’t expected such a  situation.

[I never anticipated this either.]

Qu Feiqing’s lips were still on hers. At that moment, Qu Feiqing only felt something soft had licked her lips carefully.

With the alcohol flowing through her body, Qu Feiqing held up her arms and gently lifted her body, which was very close to Su Xin’s.

“You like women?”

Qu Feiqing squinted her eyes, and the intoxicating aroma of wine exuded from her body.

I can’t answer that. Is this a misunderstanding? I really didn’t plan to lick you just now. Fourteen what should I do?!

[The host can be rest assured that we are a very humane system, so you can do it if you want.]

It did not matter to Fourteen anyways, since it had mosaics. In fourteen’s opinion, proper physical intimacy and psychological pleasures were conducive to the host’s mission.

You’re deluded! Who said I’m gonna do it!

The wine coloured Qu Feiqing’s face with beauty; replacing her grumpiness with enticing laziness. 

She stuck out half her tongue and licked Su Xin’s lips for a moment.

“Your Majesty likes it?”

Su Xin allowed Qu Feiqing to move, opening and closing her lips while speaking. Qu Feiqing had no idea that she would speak suddenly, causing the small tip of her tongue to go into Su Xin’s mouth.

Both of them were stiff. It was the first time that Qu Feiqing was so intimate with her. Qu Feiqing just licked her because she didn’t hate the feeling. It was also to tease Su Xin. She didn’t plan to go any further, just now….

   Fourteen, I suddenly want to do it now…

 [You are free to do as you wish, host. I have Mosaics1.]

Mosaic Protection to promote Socialist Harmony.

Su Xin squinted her eyes to see Qu Feiqing’s tongue and touched it with her own

Qu Feiqing must have been drunk, smelling Su Xin’s warm fragrance.

In fact, this person was indeed beautiful, at least just now, when she licked the tip of her tongue and looked at her provocatively, it made her feel like her blood was boiling, unlike the impulse of usually being bloodthirsty.

Qu Feiqing was drunk but Su Xin wasn’t and she wanted to do it. 

The clothes were worn out, Qu Feiqing raised the flask, and the wine dripped down from Su Xin’s neck, splattering their clothes.

The wine was cold and due to the cold wind from outside the palace, they couldn’t help but shiver.

Qu Feiqing gently touched the skin on Su Xin’s neck and drank all the wine there before she was willing to switch places.

Su Xin took off the hairpin on her head and threw it aside. Her long hair spread on her back like  fine silk.

When the wind started to blow, the red beads on the branches shook with the wind’s movements, and the moonlight shone brightly above, the people below were stained with decadent colors. 

The feelings were mutual. Su Xin also helped Qu Feiqing to massage her diligently. Qu Feiqing hummed and raised her red lips.

The wind grew stronger, and even the entire branch shook with it, shaking helplessly.

Su Xin is an adult, and what she had to do for Tayan had been postponed until now.

The lake in the palace, blown by the wind, made waves and the fish kept swimming in the water, sinking into that kind of warmth.

Everything suddenly became still. Su Xin got up, put on her clothes and tied up her hair again.

Sweat and spilled alcohol on her body had started making her uncomfortable.

Qu Feiqing opened her eyes and looked to be awake.

“How did you find me?”

Qu Feiqing looked into Su Xin’s eyes.

“Just strolling around,”

Su Xin answered.

“In the middle of the night, it was fun.”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

Qu Feiqing looked up and down Su Xin, not knowing what she was thinking, her expression was calm.

Each of the cold palaces in the Imperial palace had their own stories. They have had many rulers, generation after generation of masters.

Half of Qu Feiqing’s youth was spent here.

Her mother, who was a concubine, gave birth to a daughter, to the displeasure of the Emperor. At that time the other concubines took the opportunity to deal with her mother, so Qu Feiqing’s mother took her and moved into one of these cold palaces.

Qu Feiqing’s current methods and achievements were largely due to her mother’s contributions.

Her mother died of illness in this palace, and Qu Feiqing had watched her only relative leave her.

After she became the Empress, she occasionally came here, sitting alone on the ground and drinking, thinking of her mother.

At first, Qu Feiqing suspected that Su Xin had deliberately followed her here, but she later thought that the time when she came to this cold palace was not planned, and she came as she wanted, and even she didn’t know when she would come.

However, she still didn’t believe Su Xin’s reason for strolling around, it was too clumsy.

“It hurts.”

Su Xin frowned and murmured, feeling very uncomfortable.

Her body was weak, not as good as the one that had been trained before. She had been wounded just some time ago, and she just exercised vigorously. She also caught a cold in the wind. How could it not be uncomfortable?

Qu Feiqing felt her hands becoming cold and even the temperature just dropped.

Su Xin started to feel a headache.

Qu Feiqing stood up and stretched out her hand to Su Xin who was still sitting on the ground. Su Xin grabbed Qu Feiqing’s hand and struggled to stand up.

“Thank you very much.”

Su Xin patted the dust on her body, lowering her head, so she didn’t see Qu Feiqing’s hesitant expression tinted with light desire, wanting to tell her to stop. 

They did it, and Qu Feiqing was trying to figure out whether she was responsible or not.

 Su Xin didn’t have such thoughts and was ready to leave.

“Tonight….”

Qu Feiqing helped Su Xin sort out her messy clothes and thought about how to phrase the question.

“Nothing serious, your majesty rest assured, I will not talk nonsense.”

 “Are you…Happy?”

Qu Feiqing looked deeply into Su Xin’s eyes.

If not, why do you have to follow her? If not, why do you want to approach her? If not, why did you accept her just now?

“What?”

 Su Xin was bewildered, showing a confused expression.

“Your Majesty has been worrying too much. Your Majesty is like a bright sky and bright moon. It is hopeless and unobtainable. Xue Yao is only worthy of knowing, and there were just no emotions, even if it was not your Majesty.” 

The rest of Su Xin’s words were muted in Qu Feiqing’s terrifying eyes.

Fourteen, why do I feel that the situation is a bit wrong?

[This…maybe…Host, you are really a strange person.]

How can someone say to someone who just finished it that ‘I don’t like you, even if it wasn’t you, I would do something like this’…

This was no longer lack of consciousness, this was either a low emotional intelligence or slag.

I always feel like you have something to say.

[Is that so? You feel wrong.]

Fourteen said calmly.

“Your Majesty, I’m leaving first, and see you another day.”

Su Xin subconsciously felt that the situation might not be so good, and hurriedly left so she wouldn’t feel uncomfortable.

Qu Feiqing looked at her back and smiled.

Su Xin’s unavoidable evasive appearance, on the contrary, seemed to be like a stalker.

Each person’s character has a great relationship with the environment in which they grew up.

Su Xin was almost straight, speaking directly and not very fond of twists and turns, and her profession does not require her to go around.

The boss of the organization also values her very much because of her personality, because she never thinks too much about what to do.

Su Xin’s emotional experience could be said to be a blank, after all, her life was  only training before she was able to go on missions.

After being able to go on missions, Su Xin’s profession was destined to make her be a loner and not very close to others, except for Qiu Qing Qing, who was in the same occupation as her.

Since she had no emotional experience, this  made her have low emotional intelligence.

  Su Xin felt like what happened tonight was no big deal, and that this matter depended on mutual consent. Why make it complicated? I mean, hello… I’m fine.

Of course, Su Xin felt that not everyone can change other people, only those who have feelings would be able to do it.

Su Xin went back to her room with a little dizziness, her body was already freezing, and her stomach was aching.

[Host, you are sick.]

I know.

Su Xin ignored taking a shower, took off her outer garments, got in the bed in sleazy inner garments, covered the quilt and faintly fell asleep.

Usually  if there was nothing to do, Su Xin would always wake up naturally when she sleeps.

However, when Shu Quan came in, Su Xin was still asleep under the quilt.

“Miss, can’t you get up?”

“Sleepy.”

Su Xin felt that her body was as heavy as lead, and she was struggling to even open her eyes. She answered dully before putting the quilt back on. 

“Miss will sleep for a little longer.”

Shu Quan thought that Su Xin was asleep, so she put down the wash basin and closed the door.

[Host, you have a fever.]

Su Xin did not respond to it and continued to sleep for the rest of the day.

Qu Feiqing came to see Su Xin after the morning. Originally, she did not want to come after Su Xin’s indifferent attitude last night. However, something about Su Xin’s reaction was not right, and Qu Feiqing couldn’t let it go, so to simply soothe her mind, she went to find Su Xin.

“See your majesty. Miss is still asleep.”

Shu Quan bowed to Qu Feiqing lightly.

Still Sleeping?

Qu Feiqing pushed the door lightly and walked to Su Xin’s side.

Su Xin had covered her entire body with the quilt, only her hair was exposed.

 Qu Feiqing lifted the quilt a little, revealing Su Xin’s flushed face.

Qu Fei frowned and reached to check for the temperature of Susin’s forehead, it was extremely hot.

“Hurry up and go fetch a physician.”

Shu Quan was taken aback, and quickly ran out.

Su Xin closed her eyes and felt that someone was touching her forehead. It was cool and comfortable.

“Qiu Qing, I’m so uncomfortable.”

Su Xin acted unconsciously, shouting the name of the person she trusted the most.

Qu Feiqing was taken aback, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

TL Note: Fourteen is saying how because of the mosaics/censors it promotes harmony between the system and the host so that there isn’t awkwardness.
