Chapter 128 - Is It Funny That the Reincarnated Senior Sister Is Also Being Pursued?
Bao Qin had a strange dream. In the dream, she crossed into the heroine’s written words in the princess's book. Bai Lian changed to a gentle image, and she tenderly welcomed Bao Qin's advances. When Bao Qin woke up, she felt sticky and uncomfortable. She sat up and dumbfoundedly stared for a while. At only fourteen years old, she didn't know why she would have such a dream or what it meant. She felt some regret. Although Bai Lian was always so gentle with her, she had done strange things to Bai Lian in the dream. It was really too much! Besides... Bai Lian was the senior sister of the Taihua Sword Sect, while she was just a maid beside the princess. She felt a little lost, but quickly pulled herself together. Regardless, she still had to serve Bai Lian well because it was her job! She rubbed her legs and felt the slippery touch between them, blushing involuntarily. She sneaked a glance at Bai Lian and found her still fast asleep, feeling relieved yet inexplicably despondent. It was just a dream after all... She got out of bed, returned to her room to clean herself, changed into clean clothes, and then went back to Bai Lian's room. But Bai Lian still hadn't woken up. She stood by the edge of the bed and stared blankly at Bai Lian's delicate cheeks. Her own face seemed rough and unbearable compared to Bai Lian's flawless face. She gently nudged Bai Lian's shoulder. "Bai Lian, wake up." Bai Lian groggily awakened, clearly not at her usual waking hour. So she naturally entered the grumpy morning mood. However, her morning mood was not at all scary; in fact, it was quite soft. She hugged the quilt, rolled a few times, not even opening her eyes, simply rubbing her face against the quilt before pouting softly. "… Lian'er wants to sleep a bit more. So cute!" Looking at Bai Lian's lips forming a heart shape, Bao Qin's pupils trembled involuntarily. This way, Sister Bai is too cute! I want to hold her in my arms! No, Bao Qin, what are you thinking? She quickly shook her head and said, "Bai Lian, it's time to get up!" "Bai Lian struggled to open her eyes. "Bao Qin... let me sleep a bit... "No, Bai Lian, we're almost at the capital. We need to get up!" Her words had an effect. Upon hearing the words "almost at the capital," Bai Lian wrinkled her nose, wriggled in the quilt a few more times, and then finally sat up groggily. Seeing Bai Lian reluctantly getting up, Bao Qin finally heaved a sigh of relief. At least Bai Lian's behavior was exactly the same as that of the princess, so she could handle it with some experience. But it was strange; why were Bai Lian's habits and those of the princess exactly the same? "Bai Lian, let Bao Qin help you with your hair." "Okay," Bai Lian softly responded, closing her eyes and letting Bao Qin lead her to the dressing table. Seeing Bai Lian's submissive appearance, Bao Qin's eyes lit up. Sister... she's just like a little kitten, so cute! Mu Xing He had just arrived in Bai Lian's room and saw Bai Lian sitting in front of the dressing table nodding, while Bao Qin stood behind her, happily combing her hair – a harmonious scene. Her head seemed to have a big question mark above it. What is going on? Bai Lian, you've managed to win over this little girl in less than a night? And you claim you're not a fickle woman! "Ah, Miss Xing He, good morning," Bao Qin noticed Mu Xing He standing at the door, her face instantly flushing. It seems that there's something special between Sister Bai and Miss Xing He... But last night, she slept with Sister Bai. A strange sense of excitement. She couldn't understand why, but Mu Xing He suddenly felt a little itchy on her head. As if a grassland was about to sprout. She took a deep breath and said, "Bao Qin, the divine boat is about to land. Go and prepare. I need to talk to Sister Bai." "Okay." Bao Qin obediently nodded. Although she wanted to stay by Bai Lian's side, she knew her boundaries as a maid. Mu Xing He went behind Bai Lian, squinting as she watched Bai Lian dozing off in her chair. "Sister Bai, you seem to be enjoying yourself." At that moment, Bai Lian was still not fully awake. Upon hearing this, she instinctively said, "Huh? Bao Qin, why does it feel sour? Did someone accidentally knock over a vinegar bottle?" Mu Xing He took a deep breath, then leaned over and grabbed Bai Lian's dewy cheek, gritting her teeth as she said, "Yes, someone did knock over a vinegar bottle." Bai Lian suddenly woke up, feeling sweaty. "Um, Xing He, what are you talking about... Bao Qin, she's just repaying me for lending her spirit stones to ride the divine boat, so she wanted to braid my hair. We absolutely didn't do anything else!" "Is that so..." Mu Xing He said calmly. She didn't believe that Bai Lian was so pure. She too fell into the trap of her experiences from her previous life, believing that Bai Lian would obediently come to her room in the latter part of the night but found she didn't show up even after waiting in her room until the early hours. I must be more vigilant! "That's right!” Completely oblivious to the sense of crisis, Bai Lian puffed out her chest in pride, unyielding. As a former time management master, she deeply understood that when facing the questioning of this group of arrogant celestial maidens, as long as she showed a hint of guilt, she had already lost! "Hmph." Mu Xing He gave a cold snort and did not continue to pursue the matter. After all, with her current relationship with Bai Lian, she seemed to have no reason to meddle in Bai Lian's private life. But it didn't matter, sooner or later... "Bao Qin has already gone to prepare to return to the Xia Capital. Let me do your hair, Sister Bai." Bai Lian was suddenly shocked. "You, you know how to do hair?" She distinctly remembered that Mu Xing He's cute point in the game was that she was a complete disaster at everyday tasks. Coming from a top-level cultivation family, she had always had maids taking care of everything for her. Plus, after joining the Tianfu Shenzhou, she was completely engrossed in her practice, even wrapping her hair in a towel carelessly for her daily routine. Let alone complex hairstyling, she once blew up the kitchen while cooking. It was only after she successfully charmed Mu Xing He that she studied hairstyling to make her more suitable hairstyles. However, no matter how she taught her, Mu Xing He never learned. As a result, until her death, Mu Xing He's hairstyle was always done by her. And now, Mu Xing He's hairstyle was done using her hairstyling technique from the game that she taught her. Previously, she had been focused on other things and hadn't noticed. How did she learn? She had thought that without her, Mu Xing He would return to the state of fending off things by wrapping her hair in a towel. But it turns out that after the person who always did her hair left, she learned on her own.
