“I’m living with a friend right now,” Mo Qing replied with a smile.
“A really close friend? A guy or a girl?” Tang Bao’er’s heart tightened. She didn’t even realize her question was giving away her intentions.
“A really close friend. She’s a girl,” Mo Qing answered. Watching Tang Bao’er’s nervous expression, she thought she was adorable.
“A really close female friend, huh… By the way, Mo Qing, can I call you Qing’er?” Tang Bao’er looked into Mo Qing’s eyes. They were beautiful—those eerie green eyes drew her in a little.
“Of course. We’re close friends now, too, aren’t we?” Mo Qing met Tang Bao’er’s gaze. She knew exactly how Tang Bao’er was looking at her.
“Mm!” Tang Bao’er nodded firmly. They’d reached the second floor, and she carried Mo Qing to her room, gently laying her on the bed.
“Qing’er, you’re tired. Get some rest, okay? Call me if you need anything. I’ll stay in this room, too.” As she spoke, Tang Bao’er sat down beside the bed.
“Mhm~” Mo Qing nodded. She always played her part to the hilt, closing her eyes and pretending to sleep.
【Silly Girl, who do you think is cuter, Sister Bao’er or Little White Flower?】
【I don’t know. You don’t like Tang Bao’er either, do you? Why are you doing this…? She’s actually pretty pitiful…】
【Is she? I guess she is. But even so, I can’t let her off. I don’t have your kind of merciful heart, Silly Girl. Maybe I don’t have a heart at all.】
【Mo Qing, can you tell me why you’re doing all this?】
【No.】
【…Then what are you trying to achieve?】
【Sorry, I can’t tell you, my Silly Girl.】
【Are you planning to kill the male lead? Aren’t you afraid this world will fall apart?】
Silly Girl tried asking from a different angle. She was genuinely curious about what Mo Qing was planning. It felt like Mo Qing had already planned everything out long ago, like she had some hidden agenda.
【Yeah. But the protagonist’s plot armor is pretty strong. The kidnappers don’t seem able to kill that man. As for whether this world will fall apart… I’d like to know the answer, too~】
【Do you hate the male lead that much? You want him dead so badly…】
【Hate isn’t quite the word. I’m jealous. The male lead is loved by this world—he gets more of its affection than anyone else. So I’m jealous of him.】
【…】
Silly Girl fell into thought. She thought she’d sensed something in Mo Qing’s words, but she couldn’t quite make sense of it. Something seemed to flicker through her mind, then slip away before she could grasp it.
【Silly Girl, you’ve got a lot of questions today. Are you worried about me?】
【I am not!】
Tang Bao’er sat beside the bed with her laptop. Of course, she had no idea about the conversation between Silly Girl and Mo Qing. She sat there with her computer, working while glancing at Mo Qing from time to time.
Mo Qing breathed evenly, as if she really had fallen asleep. Her sleeping face was peaceful, a faint smile on her lips. She always seemed happy, as if she were a sunny girl who could light up Tang Bao’er’s life.
“Qing’er, Qing’er, Qing’er, are you asleep?” Tang Bao’er whispered tentatively. Mo Qing, asleep and completely defenseless, had a dangerously powerful pull on her. Tang Bao’er’s breathing grew a little quick, and a flush crept across her fair face. She seemed excited.
Mo Qing continued to lie quietly on the bed without answering Tang Bao’er. She seemed to be truly asleep.
Tang Bao’er set the laptop on her legs aside. Carefully, she turned over and braced herself on the bed with both hands, slowly moving closer to Mo Qing. Her body trembled a little with excitement.
Possess her.
Possess Mo Qing.
That was the only thought in Tang Bao’er’s mind now.
