Xia Zhibai sat in the chair with her head bowed, her face and ears burning red as the flames of desire blazed in her heart.

When Ruo Xiaoxi felt she’d had enough fun, she secretly slipped her little foot back, put her little white shoe on again, then struck a cute pose for Xia Zhibai.

She’d had her fun, but Xia Zhibai was suffering terribly.

If it weren’t for more than a decade of family upbringing and moral discipline holding her back, Ruo Xiaoxi would probably be squealing like crazy by now.

“Let me… touch you.” At last, Xia Zhibai managed to get the words out, her face red.

“Huh? Where?” Ruo Xiaoxi pretended to be startled and crossed both hands over her chest.

“W-wherever you want. Then… let me touch your waist!” Xia Zhibai wanted just a little something to quench her thirst.

“Oh, don’t be like that. We’re still out in public, Sister Xia. You’re so naughty~”

“You’ve got some nerve saying that when you were the one who tempted me first! No hiding!”

But there was no way Ruo Xiaoxi would give in now. She gazed at Xia Zhibai with those sparkling, little-devil eyes, then slipped away with a twist of her waist. Her hem fluttered gently like a lotus leaf, and her fair little belly button flashed into view.

Just as the two girls were playfully tussling…

An old man who sometimes passed through this street on his walks in the park came up behind them. Leaning on his cane, he looked at Xia Zhibai, who seemed to be about to do something, and gave her the same bewildered expression as the old man staring at his phone in that meme.

“Young people these days… They really have no shame. Everyone talks about free love now, and I get that, but you’re the older girl—you shouldn’t always be picking on the younger one…” He was quite a progressive old man, all things considered.

Xia Zhibai: “…” (Her gaze went utterly blank.)

Ruo Xiaoxi: (She looked up at Xia Zhibai with a playful flutter of her eyes, trying her hardest not to laugh.)

After the old man passing by said that, Xia Zhibai’s cheeks turned truly ripe-red. Her body stiffened at once, and she didn’t dare turn around.

Ah, come to think of it, Sister Xia was a young lady from a well-to-do family. She was so easily embarrassed that a single comment was enough to make her squirm. She really was easy to fluster.

The two of them sat frozen in silence for a long while.

They waited until the old man had walked off, sighing as he went.

Damn it! She hadn’t even done anything yet. Ruo Xiaoxi was the one who’d been playing footsie under the table! She was the one who’d been tempted, so why was he only scolding her?!

The more she saw Ruo Xiaoxi trying not to laugh, the angrier she got.

“You tease me shamelessly, but you won’t let me do anything!” Xia Zhibai rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath.

“There are so many people on the street, and you wouldn’t dare touch me anyway.”

To her surprise, Ruo Xiaoxi had a comeback ready. She even puffed out her chest proudly. But would Sister Xia really dare reach out and touch her in front of strangers?

Xia Zhibai took several fierce gulps of her milk tea, then slammed the empty cup down on the table.

Hmph! She really couldn’t handle this little brat? Just wait—she’d make sure Ruo Xiaoxi regretted it! She was going to make Ruo Xiaoxi hers. Once she got her back home, let’s see how much swagger she had left in the bedroom.

As they sat resting, Xia Zhibai suddenly spotted a milk tea shop next door. It seemed to be having some kind of Qixi Festival promotion, and two petite girls were standing in front of it.

Then, all of a sudden, she saw them lean in and share a sweet little kiss.

“Meow, Fufu, just one kiss is enough. Don’t get greedy—we’re only getting two free milk teas.”

“Hehe, okaaay, okaaay.”

The sweet couple called each other by their pet names, both wearing fond, doting smiles.

Once they pulled apart, Xia Zhibai came into view in the distance, looking utterly stunned. Even just watching another pair of girls kiss made her cheeks feel a little hot.

She even felt like a lonely single girl getting brutally shown up.

Huh? Wait, their relationship looks so natural! Why are they so sweet together?! They’re both girls, too. So why was she the one being teased until she couldn’t get enough of it by that little green tea beside her?

“Come on, let’s go too. Looks like they’re doing a milk tea promotion.” Xia Zhibai tugged Ruo Xiaoxi along.

Ruo Xiaoxi hooked a finger around her shoe heel to pull it on, then got to her feet unsteadily.

After checking it out, they learned that the shop was running a special Qixi Festival promotion: any couple who came in and kissed could get two milk teas for free.

Judging by the couple they’d just seen, it clearly wasn’t limited to men and women.

“Ah, another pair of pretty, cute girls?” The clerk standing outside in her uniform looked a little surprised. Maybe she hadn’t expected there to be so many romances between girls.

She’d already seen several couples today, though straight couples still made up the vast majority.

She’d also seen a pair of close friends who were secretly in love with each other but didn’t dare say so. Instead, they used the Qixi promotion as an excuse to pretend they were a couple and share a gentle kiss.

After seeing so many couples that day, the clerk almost felt like a matchmaker.

She gave the two lovely girls a polite smile. They looked like a somewhat shy young yuri couple. After welcoming them, she leaned in and asked, very quietly and with obvious curiosity:

“Are you best friends or a couple? Just between us, which one of you takes the lead and which one follows? We give the milk tea to the girl first—oh, no, I mean the one who bottoms—then wait for her partner to kiss her, okay?”

Huh? If she was asking a yuri couple, did that basically mean she wanted to know who topped and who bottomed? Ruo Xiaoxi wondered.

“Mmm…” She rested her chin in her hand and fell into deep thought at the question. She was so in control, and always came out on top—so the answer was obvious, wasn’t it?

After giving it some serious thought, Ruo Xiaoxi declared solemnly, “I’m probably the top.”

“And the other ninety-two percent of the time, you’re the bottom,” Xia Zhibai immediately shot back.

You couldn’t tell who was the top or bottom in everyday life. But when it did become obvious, Ruo Xiaoxi was clearly a helpless bottom—no, a teasing bottom!

And such a total bottom, too. She could bring out anyone’s protective instincts like crazy.

“Hmph! As if. I’m super bold, okay? I—Mmph!?”

Ruo Xiaoxi stood with her hands on her hips, swaggering proudly. But before she could finish, a slender, pale hand gently lifted her chin, and her voice cut off at once…

Her eyes instantly filled with shock and embarrassment.
