Now that she had carried the person back inside, Si Yuan wasn’t about to abandon this person with limited mobility.
She said nothing, but quickly found the first-aid kit in the cabinet following Ye Mengyun’s pointing finger and carried it back.
Ye Mengyun sat on the sofa, hugging her foot, watching Si Yuan serve her with obvious satisfaction, having completely forgotten about her injured foot.
At this time, getting her target to stay overnight was the most important thing!
Si Yuan carried the first-aid kit to Ye Mengyun, placed it aside, opened it, and carefully placed the injured foot on her own leg. While expertly cleaning the wound, she calmly said, “Get a tetanus shot after you’re done cleaning.”
“Tetanus?” Ye Mengyun was actually sleepy, and thinking about the hassle of going to the hospital late at night, she secretly asked the system, “System, will it be okay if I don’t get a tetanus shot?”
“It’s okay, you’re the protagonist now, you can’t die.”
“That’s right!” Ye Mengyun only remembered that she was the protagonist after being reminded by the system; her protagonist aura wouldn’t allow anything to happen to her. After receiving confirmation from the system, Ye
Mengyun turned to the system, feigning strength yet tinged with pitifulness, saying, “It’s just a minor injury, nothing serious. I won’t go out so late.” However, her mind was already conjuring up images of Si Yuan, concerned for her, desperately urging her to get a shot. She wouldn’t mind reluctantly agreeing then.
Si Yuan remained focused on treating her wound, and without even looking up at Ye Mengyun’s decision, said, “Whatever.”
???
This isn’t the scenario I imagined!
Ye Mengyun had already mentally planned how many times she could use her charm to get closer to the two, but she hadn’t expected her target to show absolutely no gratitude towards her benefactor.
“System, my heart is cold,” Ye Mengyun said resentfully, staring at Si Yuan who was busy treating her foot injury, and began to bother the system.
“I thought you already understood her personality,” 0348 said, showing no intention of comforting her.
“Now I do,” Ye Mengyun gritted her teeth, her gaze involuntarily drifting to the line of words above Si Yuan’s head, all eight characters now grayed out.
Ye Mengyun suddenly had a flash of inspiration and guessed, “System, does the icon above Si Yuan’s head light up whenever she possesses a certain item?”
“Yes.”
“Is it that convenient! I was worried about how to tell if Si Yuan possessed these things.”
Ye Mengyun was happy for a moment, but then her smile faded as she remembered something. She stared at the gray “Friendship” icon above Si Yuan’s head, feeling somewhat frustrated.
“System, I’ve helped the target so much, and she still doesn’t consider me a friend? That’s too cold-hearted!” ”
It seems you don’t understand the target’s personality enough. If she were so easily moved, the icon wouldn’t have been gray in the first place.”
“That’s right!” Reminded by the system, Ye Mengyun’s previously discouraged spirits instantly recovered. After a second of dejection, she started plotting.
There’s no woman I can’t win over in real life. I don’t believe you don’t yearn for the word “best friend,” especially a rich and beautiful best friend like me!
Si Yuan cut off the remaining bandages and said, “All done.” Then she put the items she had just taken out back into the medicine box one by one.
“You’re so professional!” Ye Mengyun moved her right foot, admiring the neatly bandaged bandage.
However, Si Yuan remained as indifferent as ever, closing the medicine box and returning it to where she had brought it. Ye Mengyun
looked at Si Yuan’s aloof back, pouted, then suddenly softened her voice, saying, “You’re staying today, right?” She then added pitifully, “I’m your benefactor, after all~” She drew out the last syllable, making it seem like Si Yuan had saved her, not the other way around, if there were a third person in the room.
Si Yuan closed the cabinet door, turned, and calmly looked at Ye Mengyun, saying, “I don’t like owing people favors.”
So, she’s staying!
Ye Mengyun automatically translated Si Yuan’s words, her smile deepening. She then said with a hint of flattery, “Are you sleepy? Why don’t we go to sleep?” She pointed upstairs, “The bedroom is upstairs.”
Seeing Ye Mengyun’s smile again made Si Yuan’s usually stoic heart soften inexplicably. She dismissed it as a hallucination and strode towards Ye Mengyun.
Ye Mengyun was still eagerly waiting for Si Yuan’s answer about whether they should go to sleep, watching her get closer and closer. Only when Si Yuan bent down in front of her and lifted her up in the same way she had just entered the room did she understand Si Yuan’s meaning.
It seemed her target was a woman of action!
Ye Mengyun realized she had subconsciously wrapped her arms around Si Yuan’s neck and couldn’t help but feel embarrassed, saying, “You could have just helped me upstairs, my other leg is fine.” She then pointedly lifted her uninjured left leg.
Being princess-carried by another girl felt quite awkward.
“So quick,” Si Yuan’s expression seemed to say, “I just didn’t want the hassle.”
“System, how can Si Yuan be so cool? I feel like she doesn’t need a male lead at all. Maybe giving her a girlfriend would be better.”
“The target female lead’s sexual orientation is normal. Don’t think about weird things.”
“I was just joking~” Seeing the system so serious, Ye Mengyun also became serious and said, “If the target likes women, I wouldn’t be happy either. Someone as beautiful as me would definitely be the most dangerous.”
Following Ye Mengyun’s instructions, Si Yuan successfully carried her into the bedroom.
The moment she opened the bedroom door, the cold and austere decor made Si Yuan feel for a moment that it was completely unsuitable for the person in her arms. Not only was the room’s decor unsuitable, but Si Yuan even felt that the clothes this person was wearing were extremely mismatched with her, making her look much less interesting.
Ye Mengyun hadn’t paid attention to what Lu Xue’s bedroom looked like in her memory. When she saw the decor inside, she felt the same disdain as Si Yuan.
She was still a young girl; her bedroom should be sweet and charming. This cold and austere style gave her a creepy feeling.
Oh… no wonder Lu Xue is a creep!
After Si Yuan carefully placed Ye Mengyun on the bed, she stared blankly at Si Yuan, who had already turned and walked towards the door, and said, “You’re just leaving like that?”
“Otherwise?” Si Yuan stopped and turned to look at the person on the bed.
Ye Mengyun wiggled her dirty left foot at Si Yuan and said, “I need to wash my feet, no, I need to take a shower.”
After spending so much time in the bar, she was still covered in the smell of smoke and felt terrible if she didn’t shower.
Si Yuan frowned and said, “Your feet can’t get wet.”
“I know, my right foot won’t get wet, but the rest of my feet need to be washed.” Ye Mengyun winked at Si Yuan ingratiatingly and said, “That’s why I need you to stay and help.”
Since it was this person’s request, Si Yuan was too lazy to stop her and went straight into the bathroom next door.
When Si Yuan carried Ye Mengyun into the bathroom, the bathtub was already filled with water.
After Ye Mengyun stood in front of the bathtub, she took off her old-fashioned dress without hesitation. She also hated this outfit.
Ye Mengyun quickly stripped naked. The moment she took off her bra, she realized that her physical attributes were quite good, with a curvaceous figure, fair skin, and beautiful features.
Ye Mengyun turned and struck a pose in front of the mirror, then looked down at her breasts and decisively reached out to grab them.
Hmm…the feel is quite nice!
Si Yuan, carrying a bathrobe, had just entered the room when she bumped into the naked body, and couldn’t help but be taken aback, especially since the other woman’s behavior was a bit strange.
Ye Mengyun’s gaze met Si Yuan’s calm eyes, and she calmly released her hand, saying, “I wonder if they’ve sagged.” With that, she slowly lay down in the bathtub, holding onto the edge.
Before enjoying her bath, Ye Mengyun thought of Si Yuan and enthusiastically arranged, “The guest room is right by the corridor. You can stay there tonight. There’s a bathroom in the guest room too, so you can take a shower and rest well. My house is very safe.”
Si Yuan placed her bathrobe aside and coldly said, “No need to trouble yourself. I’ll just sleep on the sofa tonight.”
Ye Mengyun glared at Si Yuan, who was still stubbornly refusing to give her a chance to get close, and said angrily, “You still need to take a shower! Do you know you smell like smoke? I don’t like smells.”
Hearing her words, Si Yuan just silently gave her a look and left the bathroom, leaving Ye Mengyun to continue taking a shower in a huff.
Ye Mengyun originally wanted to stay angry for a while, but when she thought about the mission she was here for and Si Yuan’s experience, her anger instantly disappeared.
“System, what is the target doing now? Did she go to take a shower?”
“No, she’s standing outside waiting for you.”
“…”
Hearing the system’s words, Ye Mengyun completely lost the desire to continue taking a bath and decisively climbed up the edge of the bathtub.
She had just gotten up when the bathroom door opened, and Si Yuan calmly walked in. She began handing things to Ye Mengyun, who had difficulty walking, and helping her when needed. Neither of them spoke during this time.
Ye Mengyun didn’t know how to start a conversation, while Si Yuan was speechless to begin with.
After Ye Mengyun finished dressing, she decisively reached out to stop her, pointing to the bathtub and saying, “You go in and shower too!” To prevent the other from being stubborn, she added, “If you want to sleep in my room, you have to be clean. After you shower, put your clothes in the washing machine so you can wear them tomorrow.” Saying this, she hopped on one foot to the wardrobe, rummaged around for a while, and took out a brand-new bathrobe, saying, “Wear this tonight, or you won’t be sleeping tonight!”
Si Yuan frowned, hesitated for a moment looking at the bathrobe handed to her, and finally took it and turned to go into the bathroom.
Ye Mengyun looked at the closed bathroom door and cursed herself, “Lu Xue, what have you done!”
Lu Xue’s bedroom was quite large, with a sofa in addition to the bed.
Ye Mengyun glanced at the bare sofa and decisively hopped on one leg.
To gain Si Yuan’s favor, she had to be incredibly kind to her, and if she was going to be kind to her, the place where she slept couldn’t be too shabby.
Ye Mengyun originally wanted to give the bed to Si Yuan, but considering Si Yuan’s stubborn personality, she thought it was more reliable to tidy up the sofa for her, since the sofa in the room was big and comfortable enough.
Si Yuan, who was showering in the bathroom, could clearly hear the sound of someone hopping on one leg outside. She wanted to remind her to be careful, but then felt that she was being too concerned about a stranger, so she ultimately chose to remain silent.
Si Yuan quickly washed and dried her hair, then put on a bathrobe and went out.
The bedroom was quiet; the person who had been hopping around not long ago was now curled up in bed, seemingly asleep.
Si Yuan turned her gaze to where she was going to sleep and noticed that the sofa, which had been empty before,
now had pillows and blankets. “All done showering?” Ye Mengyun’s mumbled, clearly half-asleep, came from the direction of the bed.
“Mmm,” Si Yuan responded softly.
“Then go to sleep.” Lu Xue’s body has its own biological clock; she was already very sleepy at this time. However, Ye Mengyun stubbornly struggled for a while before Si Yuan came out.
After tidying up the sofa for Si Yuan, she had planned to wait for Si Yuan to finish showering so she could give her a self-introduction symbolizing the start of their friendship. However, the bed was too soft and comfortable, and she almost succumbed to it after only a short while.
When Ye Mengyun heard the bathroom door open, her mind was already blank. She managed to say a few words before falling into a deep sleep.
Si Yuan glanced at the person on the bed whose hair was the only thing visible, and then quietly lay down on the sofa.
If Ye Mengyun were still awake, she might have seen the word “friendship” flash above Si Yuan’s head, but it quickly went dark again.
