Translator Note

NOTICE: I’ve pretty much caught up with the raws. The next volume is still on-going, so I’ll wait until it has a decent amount of chapters (80 or something) before continuing to translate

After returning to the guest room prepared by Dongfang Yang on the third floor, Su Tao, who had been holding up with a stern expression, suddenly went limp and fell straight onto the bed headfirst.

Half her body lay on the bed, her face buried in the soft pillow, while her legs knelt on the floor, her butt raised high.

What a great opportunity!

But Chi Xiaocheng is a girl, so this isn’t really a great opportunity.

So she sat down beside Su Tao and comforted her, “Tao-Tao, you’ve really worked hard.”

Su Tao’s voice was muffled, “Ahhhhh, I feel so annoyed. I don’t want to manage the War God Temple, or inherit it, and I don’t want to see that so-called father. Why can’t the World Will just die, and that Young Lady can die too!”

All she ever wanted was a plain and ordinary life.

Going to school, studying, participating in club activities with Chi Xiaocheng, then complaining and encouraging each other about various school matters, graduating, working together, striving to earn money, and then getting married.

An ordinary person’s lifetime would be enough.

But now, this kind of life seems to be getting further and further away from her.

The events of this past month were more surreal than a dream.

Chi Xiaocheng reached out and stroked the beautiful hair on the back of Su Tao’s head, “Alright, I know Tao-Tao is very tired. If the bed isn’t comfortable enough, you can come into my arms.”

Su Tao glanced sideways and noticed the doting expression on Chi Xiaocheng’s face.

Usually, Chi Xiaocheng is playful, so this motherly kind of doting is extremely rare.

A familiar feeling emanated from the other girl.

Once upon a time, even when she was little and felt stressed, seeking comfort from Xiaocheng felt just like this.

“Wuu wu wu wu…”

Without another word, Su Tao turned over, hugged Chi Xiaocheng, and buried her head in the girl’s embrace.

Chi Xiaocheng helplessly wrapped one arm around Su Tao while stroking the back of her head.

It had a bit of a role-reversal feel, except neither could see the slight enjoyment and contentment on the other’s face.

They didn’t say anything more to each other, just enjoyed each other’s warmth. The somewhat spacious large room was left with only the sound of their breathing.

After a while, Su Tao voiced a slight worry, “We just came out of the mountains, and we were sweating… Now that Xiaocheng is holding me like this… will I… will I smell?”

Chi Xiaocheng chuckled, “No, I can’t smell any sweat. Your hair smells like shampoo, mixed with a bit of Tao-Tao’s girly scent.”

“Girly scent…” Su Tao was momentarily speechless, “Science shows that’s just an illusion caused by hormones and dopamine, okay? Even if it was the smell of shower gel, it should have faded by now.”

“Really?” Chi Xiaocheng retorted, “Then does Tao-Tao think I have a smell?”

“Yes.” Su Tao hugged Chi Xiaocheng’s waist tighter, “A faint orange scent. I like it.”

“Really, you make it sound like I’m a fruit spirit.”

Another helpless sigh. Chi Xiaocheng patted Su Tao’s back to convey a message, “Alright, after resting, you should take a bath soon, and then it’s time to sleep. If we don’t sleep now, it’ll be morning and there will be no need to sleep.”

“Don’t wanna sleep…”

Su Tao made a cute sound like a child.

Chi Xiaocheng continued playing the mother role, “After activating your War God physique, you should be very tired, right? Just like my Darkening, after using that ability, I feel like I could sleep for three days and three nights. How could you not want to sleep?”

Su Tao: “My body is very tired, but my mind feels very excited. I definitely won’t be able to sleep.”

So it’s the after-effects of staying up all night.

“Really, what am I going to do with you? I’ll accompany you a little longer, Tao-Tao. But staying like this isn’t good either. How about we sit for a while?”

As soon as Chi Xiaocheng said this, Su Tao froze in her embrace for a few seconds.

Then, the young girl pulled her head out, sat up, and looked at Chi Xiaocheng, “Okay!”

But when the young girl sat up, Chi Xiaocheng noticed the fiery look in her eyes. “Tao-Tao, what’s that look in your eyes? I just meant for you to sit for a while, not for you to think about all sorts of other things!”

“Right.” Su Tao’s fiery eyes also showed a trace of confusion, “Didn’t you say ‘do’ for a while?”

“Huh???”

Chi Xiaocheng found herself momentarily unable to receive Su Tao’s brainwaves.

After another moment of silence, “Sit?”

“Do.”

“I meant, sit on the bed.”

“Uh… wasn’t it ‘do’ on the bed?”

As soon as Su Tao’s words came out, both of them were stunned at the same time.

Immediately, Chi Xiaocheng was the first to blush bright red, stammering, “Tao… Tao-Tao-Tao-Tao-Tao-Tao, you idiot, what on earth are you thinking about? Don’t you understand the current situation? We just went through that life-and-death ordeal; forget needing rest; our future is uncertain; Brother Long and Si Chen are downstairs… Given the situation now, you actually bring up that kind of thing!”

A long string of words poured out of Chi Xiaocheng’s mouth. The girl barely took a breath, almost reaching out to hit Su Tao.

However, the young girl still wore a serious expression, “So, do we do it or not?”

“I…” Chi Xiaocheng shrunk her neck, then covered her face, “I’m going to take a shower.”

…

Pleasurable time always passes in the blink of an eye.

7 AM. A little sunlight shone through the window onto the floor. Su Tao leaned against the headboard, holding Chi Xiaocheng in her arms. “Xiaocheng, I suddenly think a saying I saw online is quite right: ‘Staying up late hurts your body, better to just pull an all-nighter.'”

“Right now, I feel my mind isn’t foggy at all; it’s very clear. I even feel confident that I could persuade my father if he showed up now!”

Chi Xiaocheng reached out and pinched the flesh on Su Tao’s waist, “What’s the use of being clear now? Tao-Tao, really, you have no shame at all. Clearly, we aren’t even married, yet we did this kind of thing.”

“Even if we get married, it’s just a matter of time. I won’t let go of Xiaocheng’s hand.”

The young girl lowered her head again, gently kissing Chi Xiaocheng’s forehead, her eyes firm, “Whether it’s the World Will or that Young Lady, I will definitely not let them take you away. Definitely!”

Chi Xiaocheng rolled her eyes at Su Tao, “Every time Tao-Tao says that, don’t I still have to clean up the mess for you? Always drawing me big pies!”

Su Tao grinned, “So, will you eat this big pie, Xiaocheng?”

“Tao-Tao, your pies are so big, of course I’ll eat them. But… it’s very difficult.” ¹ You should know what this means….

Defeating the World Will and the Young Lady… she felt there was still a long road ahead.

The young girl also knew it was difficult.

But…

“No matter how difficult, I won’t give up.” Su Tao took a deep breath and held Chi Xiaocheng tighter. “For our… future!”

She will definitely shatter this cage called the world!
