"Sister..." Xiaoqing saw that Bai Suzhen didn't speak for a long time, and she couldn't help feeling anxious. She bit her lip and whispered, "You said that we should be honest with each other. I wanted to tell you about Sister Feng, but I didn't know how to start—"
"Then tell me now, okay?" Bai Suzhen collected her thoughts, reached out to pour a cup of hot tea for Xiaoqing, and said with a smile: "—I'd like to hear the details."
Xiaoqing took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, I'll tell you—"
"In fact, I have always thought that I have three sisters. In addition to my eldest sister and second sister, Sister Feng has always been the one who takes care of me the most. She will help me whenever I have something to do. Sometimes she is more accommodating to me than my eldest sister and second sister. But I never thought that Sister Feng would like me. It was not until Mu Yanran found me and told me that I knew that Sister Feng had more than just sisterly feelings for me." The night sky outside the window was starry, but the moonlight was a little dim. The stars sprinkled into the house through the open window. The room was quiet, and only Xiaoqing's voice was vague with some memories: "But I only think of Sister Feng as a sister, and I have never thought of anything else." Xiaoqing looked at Bai Suzhen steadily, held Bai Suzhen's hand tightly, and said solemnly: "If I hadn't met you, sister, maybe I wouldn't like a woman at all. I respect Sister Feng, but I only like you, sister. I am very clear about this in my heart. Apart from you, sister, I, Xiaoqing, can never like anyone else, even if that person is Sister Feng."
Bai Suzhen's heart softened. When she heard Xiaoqing clearly say that she only liked her, she felt sweet and happy. She stared at Xiaoqing quietly, stroked her cheek gently, and murmured with a sigh: "Qing'er, have I ever told you that it is Bai Suzhen's great fortune to meet you?"
Xiaoqing's eyes suddenly lit up and she corrected him, "Sister, I should be the one saying this—"
"No--" Bai Suzhen covered Xiaoqing's lips with her fingers, shook her head gently, her eyes scattered and moist: "Qing'er, you don't know how good you are..." Slowly leaning over, removing her fingers, she kissed Xiaoqing on her lips.
Bai Suzhen's eyes were full of tenderness. Xiaoqing's heart was filled with joy. Their eyes met, staring at each other quietly. At this moment, it seemed as if everything in the world did not exist, and only the two of them were left. After an unknown amount of time, Bai Suzhen straightened herself up and said, "Qing'er, say hello to your father, the king, and your mother for me. Remember to come back early."
"Yeah." Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, staring at Bai Suzhen in fascination. Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she frowned and said, "By the way, sister, the Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. You must be more careful." Bai Suzhen's real body is afraid of heat, and the period around the Dragon Boat Festival is the hottest in the year. It must be a bit difficult to endure at that time.
"Is the Dragon Boat Festival coming soon?" Bai Suzhen was stunned. She had really overlooked this point. No wonder it has been getting hotter recently. Looking at Xiaoqing, she smiled and said, "Qing'er, thank you for being so careful. But don't worry, I have practiced Taoism for a thousand years, so I can still handle it."
"I know. I'm just reminding you." Xiaoqing took off her jade pendant from her neck, stood up and walked behind Bai Suzhen: "Sister, you wear this blood jade. It will stay with you for the next few days instead of me. It will protect you for me." She put the blood jade on Bai Suzhen, lay on her shoulder, blew warm air in her ear, and asked in a domineering and coquettish manner: "Sister, promise me that you will wear it all the time, even when you take a bath or change clothes, okay?"
Bai Suzhen smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, whatever Qing'er says is what I'll do." She lowered her head to look at the jade pendant on her neck, and saw that it was shaped like a water droplet and was blood-red all over, with a faint glow flowing. She knew that it must be a magic weapon to protect her body.
"Sister, will you really obey me if I say anything?"
Xiaoqing's voice suddenly had a certain joy and expectation, and her eyes were cunning, and I don't know what she was thinking. Unfortunately, Bai Suzhen had her back to her and didn't see her expression. She only responded subconsciously: "Yeah."
"Sister, you have to keep your word." Xiaoqing suppressed her excitement and emphasized it again.
"Yeah." Bai Suzhen responded again, but suddenly felt that Xiaoqing was a little strange, as if... she was planning something! Subconsciously, Bai Suzhen became alert. She turned around and glanced at Xiaoqing, and asked curiously: "Qing'er, what do you want to say?"
Xiaoqing blinked her eyes and smiled very happily: "Sister, I will stay here tonight and won't go back to my room?"
"Hmm?" Bai Suzhen narrowed her eyes slightly and thought to herself, so this girl is up to this kind of trick.
Xiao Qing was afraid that Bai Suzhen would object, so she quickly reminded her: "Sister, you just said that whatever I say is what it is, you can't change your mind so quickly." After that, to show that she had no bad intentions, she added seriously: "Yes, I will go back to the Dragon Palace tomorrow morning, I just want to talk to you all night. That's all."
"Oh." Bai Suzhen glanced at Xiaoqing with a smile, then suddenly stood up and walked towards the bed.
Xiaoqing was delighted to see that Bai Suzhen had no objection, and hurriedly followed Bai Suzhen and came to the bed together. Thinking that she would be able to sleep in the same bed with Bai Suzhen tonight, the corners of her mouth could not help but rise again and again.
Bai Suzhen made the bed carefully, turned sideways, and said to Xiaoqing, "Qing'er, it's getting dark, go to bed and rest."
"Yeah." Xiaoqing happily took off her shoes, jumped onto the bed, leaned towards the inside of the bed, and stared at Bai Suzhen expectantly. However, Bai Suzhen just stood by the bed, not planning to get on the bed. She looked at Xiaoqing's seemingly kind gesture, and suddenly a deep smile flashed in her eyes. She coughed dryly, suppressed her laughter and said, "Qing'er, this bed is big enough, you don't have to wrong yourself."
Xiaoqing blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "I don't want to crowd my sister. Give her more space so she can sleep more comfortably, right?"
"Qing'er, you don't have to worry about me so much. Anyway, I will go to your room to sleep later. That way, there will be no one to share the bed with me, and I will sleep comfortably." Not surprisingly, Xiaoqing's face suddenly fell, and he looked extremely depressed.
Bai Suzhen smiled and said, "Qing'er, good night." After that, she turned and left.
Xiaoqing looked at Bai Suzhen's departing back, then turned her gaze to look at the dim moonlight outside the window, and suddenly let out a long sigh: "Oh~" Next time I should choose a full moon night, as the reunion of people and the moon will have to wait until the next opportunity.
The author has something to say: Alas, I originally wanted to update three times, but I couldn't resist the temptation of the movie, so I can only update twice. By the way, I recommend everyone to watch a movie "A Voice of Life", which is the original version of "Keep Talking" starring Louis Koo and Big S. I personally think the original version is better. You may want to watch it if you have time.
