Chapter 26 - What Does Her Turning Bad Have To Do With Us Being Brothers?
It was night.
It was raining heavily outside.
Pitter-patter.
The raindrops hit the window pane rhythmically, making a soft, continuous sound.
Sitting at her desk, freshly showered, Ruan Qingqing had no intention of reviewing her lessons.
The textbook was open in front of her, but her mind was far away from the complex and difficult problems.
With her chin resting on one hand, her eyes kept wandering to the cell phone charging nearby.
The screen glowed faintly, showing the time: 10:30 pm.
The chat interface froze at the message she had just sent.
[Xu Xu Qing Feng]: Classmate Ji Mu, can we meet at the subway station at the alley entrance tomorrow at 1 pm? It's quite close for both of us.
The light green battery icon was almost fully charged.
Still no response from the other person.
Has he fallen asleep...
A soft, wordless murmur escaped her lips, and a feeling of disappointment spread from the corners of her heart.
Even though they had only been apart for a few hours, she was unconsciously beginning to miss him.
It felt like spending time with the boy during the day was just a drop in the bucket.
It couldn't ease the loneliness in her heart at all.
Ruan Qingqing didn't know what was happening to her.
An indescribable emotion surged through her entire being, overwhelming and unreasonable.
It affected her every moment.
Whenever she had the courage to send a message to the boy, she would spend a long time editing, deleting, and rewriting on the keyboard, only to end up sending just a few words.
She was anxiously waiting for an answer from him.
If she had to wait too long, her mood for the whole day would deteriorate considerably.
She hated this feeling of uncertainty and had been suffering from it for a long time.
With a slow breath, Ruan Qingqing patted her cheeks.@@novelbin@@
She forced herself to suppress her thoughts and tried not to pay attention to these trivial matters.
As she walked to the wardrobe, she thought about doing something to distract herself.
Various clothes were hanging on the hangers.
Her eyes wandered over the different styles, but she hesitated, unsure which outfit would be most appropriate for meeting the boy.
She had very few casual clothes, and all of her spring, summer, fall, and winter outfits were crammed into this small closet.
Therefore, her choices were limited.
If only I had a few more clothes...
A girl who had never cared much for material things now longed to earn more money.
That way, she could dress a little more brightly and beautifully.
Maybe the person she cared about would look at her a little longer...
Ding-dong.
A message?
Hearing the vibration from her phone, Ruan Qingqing reflexively put down the clothes in her hands and hurried to the desk.
She didn't even notice how fast and joyful her steps were.
After unplugging the data cable, she picked up the phone and saw the message from him.
[Wild Boy]: OK, but can we move the time up a little? How about around 11 AM?
Of course!
She would have done anything to meet the boy sooner.
But why so soon?
A look of confusion flashed in Ruan Qingqing's eyes.
Before she could ask the reason, a few more messages arrived from the other side.
[Wild Boy]: This time is perfect to eat before going to the library.
[Wild Boy]: There's a place near the Port Subway Station that serves great rice bowls.
[Wild Boy]: Especially their tomato shrimp and scrambled egg rice, it's super delicious 😋
[Wild Boy]: Let's go together then.
Together...
Ruan Qingqing's cheeks felt a little warm.
Her gaze was fixed on the boy's last message, and her beautiful eyes seemed to hold a pool of autumn water, looking incredibly captivating.
[Xu Xu Qing Feng]: Mm-hmm, sounds good.
She lay down on the bed, holding her phone to her chest as she listened to the constant ringing in her ears.
Is this a date...
Ruan Qingqing closed her eyes, unable to resist rolling around on the soft fabric.
So happy~
Even though she knew it was just an ordinary outing, the thought of spending time with the boy made her uncontrollably happy.
I wonder what he's doing right now.
She stopped rolling and rested her chin on the blanket, the light from her phone illuminating her delicate, soft features.
Her eyes kept wandering over the chat interface.
She tried to look through the screen, to get a glimpse of his life on the other side.
Is he playing games?
Or studying?
Or maybe...
Some inappropriate thoughts suddenly entered her mind, causing Ruan Qingqing to blush and bury her face in the pillow.
The white nightgown on her body slipped down slightly as she moved, revealing pink stains on her beautiful neck.
It wasn't entirely her fault for having such bold and presumptuous thoughts.
Teenagers often have a deep interest in sexual matters.
Ruan Qingqing was no exception.
She wasn't completely ignorant.
During middle school, she would occasionally look up related information on the Internet.
Adolescent boys are like walking hormones, full of energy and passion for life. They also have a strong curiosity and attention to the opposite sex.
If women crave intimacy most around the age of thirty, adolescence is the time when boys' desires are at their peak.
Various actresses from Japanese adult films become their teachers of enlightenment, and the use of tissues at midnight far exceeds that during the day.
Ji Mu was also a boy of that age.
So, would he be like other boys...?
Ruan Qingqing bit her lower lip, her petite face hidden by her black hair, revealing a pair of misty eyes filled with confusion.
She knew that she was thinking too much.
But the more she tried to stop herself from thinking, the more her mind uncontrollably wandered to strange places.
Chaotic images flooded in.
One of them vividly depicted the boy sitting in his seat during the day, drinking Coke.
He was lazy and casual with his chin up.
The strands of hair on his forehead swayed gently in the breeze from the window.
His other hand held the can, a few drops of water falling from the rim and spreading in small patches across his pale skin.
As his index finger hooked onto the pull tab and applied light pressure, the veins on the back of his hand became faintly visible.
It was like looking through a tube to see a leopard.
With a single glance, she could feel the dangerous yet alluring power.
...Opening a can with one hand
Such a simple and effortless action.
Yet, when Ji Mu did it, this ordinary behavior seemed incredibly captivating.
She didn't understand why she remembered it so clearly.
Like a pervert hiding in the dark corners, every nerve ending swelled and heated with every movement.
So...
When the shameful act of self-indulgence was forced upon Ji Mu...
This scene must have been... incredibly sensual and lascivious.
Unable to articulate the filthy thoughts that flashed through her mind, Ruan Qingqing couldn't help but squeeze her legs together and rub them lightly to relieve the tingling itch.
No, no, no. I can't think about it anymore. It's getting weird.
She closed her eyes, trying to escape the overwhelming sea of desire.
But as her vision plunged into darkness, the image of the young man's slender, well-defined hands reappeared in her mind.
They were very handsome, very long.
Every nail was meticulously trimmed.
Whether those hands were caressing her head, her collarbone, or her cheek.
Or exploring those inexpressible special places.
She seemed incapable of reacting with the defensiveness that a normal person would have when insulted.
The mere thought of the tingling sensation of fingertips brushing against her skin made her body tremble in an involuntary physiological response.
"I'm going crazy..."
She tilted her head back in unbearable discomfort, her cheeks flushed.
As her thoughts grew hazy, she imagined herself becoming the few drops of sweat that trickled down the young man's forehead as he drank Coke.
Intimately feeling every inch of skin, sliding down to his Adam's apple and finally disappearing into his slightly open collar, completely occupying those two prominent collarbone lines...
"Haah~"
Her full, rosy lips parted and closed, a heavy breath escaping into the dim light.
The imagined scenes became clearer and more dangerous.
The sheets showed wrinkles from being held tightly, and her steady breathing became rapid.
The late night was always a hotbed of desire.
The heat rose from within and any attempt at rationality crumbled before this unstoppable force.
It was like an insatiable abyss, an endless longing.
"Ji Mu..."
A sigh of seeming surrender echoed in the dark room.
Her beautiful eyes, half open and half closed, allowed only a glimpse of the spring colors of desire and passion.
"Sorry...
Just this once, okay...
Just this once...
I might think about doing something naughty with you."

[Host, why are you hesitating, just go for it!]
Under the bright incandescent light.
Looking at the boy's miserable gameplay, the system was fuming.
[Do you even know how to play? A handful of rice thrown on the screen, and a chicken could play better than you.]
0/25/0
My goodness, he must be a living saint to play the game without even killing anyone.
"Can you say a little less, who's playing anyway, you or me?"
Ji Mu got a headache from the noise.
"If you really can't, then try."
You can you up, no can no BB.
[Fine, I'll do it.]
Little did he know, the system had been waiting for those words.
After watching the boy play for so long, it was itching to take over.
[Host, just watch me play, you'll be speechless!]
Just as it was about to confidently take control and perform an impressive move, it suddenly heard the disappointing voice of the subsystem.
[Main system, stop playing for a moment, there's an important report.]
"Seriously, could your timing be any worse?"
Annoyed, the system handed the phone back to the boy and retreated angrily into the system space.
[What's the big deal?]
[Main System, there's been a recent change in the Prajna Instrument.]
The subsystem gave it the display device.
The system took it and looked at it.
Mission target: Ruan Qingqing
Affection level for males: -43
Hidden Dark Level: 80%
[? Where's the change?]
The subsystem has paused.
[Main system, the mission target's hidden darkness value...]
[80%, so what's the problem?]
[Ah, well...]
For the first time, a look of confusion appeared on the subsystem's face.
[What does it matter how high Ruan Qingqing's darkness value is? Even if her hidden darkness value reaches 10000%, what then?]
The system had a desperate expression.
[By that time, the host would have already become very friendly with her. No matter what happens, she won't hurt her good friend, okay?]
After saying that, she left the room without looking back.
[All right, from now on, don't report anything related to the hidden blackening value to me, I'm busy.]
Subsystem: [........]
What do you think?
