Chapter 92: Your Little Mouth is So Sweet~
***
“You… you you… didn’t you already dissipate?”
Lin Muyu stared at the face before her that was identical to her own in every detail, her speech becoming stuttered.
Memories of what her original self had done to her before dissipating suddenly flashed through her mind, and her originally calm face instantly flushed hot.
“After experiencing those kinds of things so many times, I didn’t expect you’d still be so innocent~”
Her original self slowly walked closer, her skirt swaying gently with her movements, stirring up an almost imperceptible breeze.
She raised her hand, her fingertips carrying a slightly cool touch as they gently caressed Lin Muyu’s face that was identical to her own, sliding from her brow to the corner of her lips with movements so tender it was as if she were touching fragile treasure.
“Who would want to experience those things?”
Lin Muyu jerked her head away to dodge that hand, her expression instantly darkening as her brows furrowed tightly, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on:
“That had nothing to do with love or romance whatsoever, it was purely unreasonable torture!”
“Torture…”
Hearing those two words, her original self’s movements paused, as if remembering something.
She slowly withdrew her hand, a barely perceptible dejection creeping into her voice.
But the next second, she changed the subject, pointing at the swing beneath Lin Muyu with a smile that curved her eyes:
“Could you let me sit on half of it?”
“But… but this swing is only this big.”
Lin Muyu looked down at the small swing beneath her. The wooden seat was only big enough for one person, and she responded with some hesitation.
“Dummy, this is your dream.”
Her original self reached out a finger and lightly tapped Lin Muyu’s little head, the pressure of her fingertip neither light nor heavy.
“Just make the swing bigger, won’t that work? I really don’t know how you were a teacher in your past life, how did your logical thinking become so dumb!”
“…”
Lin Muyu was momentarily speechless. She opened her mouth but couldn’t say anything, and could only silently comply.
She closed her eyes and silently wished in her heart for the swing to become bigger, bigger still.
Before long, the swing beneath her truly grew as she wished, as if guided by invisible hands, slowly stretching and widening as the wooden seat extended to provide enough space.
Thinking about it carefully, her original self was right, she really had been influenced too deeply by this body.
How had her former self, who always loved to be thorough and remained calm and rational, become so emotional and confused?
In the past, she definitely wouldn’t have been troubled by these things.
“Noticed the problem?”
Her original self chuckled softly, her tone carrying some understanding, as if she had already seen through her thoughts.
She naturally sat on the other half of the swing, then casually wrapped one arm around Lin Muyu’s slender waist, gently resting her head on her shoulder. A faint, indescribable fragrance drifted from her hair, the intimate and natural gesture as if they were meant to be this way.
The warm touch on her shoulder and the tickling sensation of hair brushing against her neck made Lin Muyu’s waist instantly stiffen, all her muscles tensing up as even her breathing became somewhat labored.
This ambiguous posture, like that of lovers, made her feel flustered and confused.
She indeed instinctively resisted those forceful, rough actions and was even somewhat cold toward them. After all, she wasn’t a masochist. Who would like being forced?
But faced with this kind of gentle intimacy that carried no sense of oppression, she felt as if all her strength had been drained away, unable to even generate thoughts of resistance.
What a pity that there still wasn’t a truly gentle girl by her side.
Perhaps Xiaotao could be considered gentle?
But being with Xiaomu, one timid and one naive, always felt like raising two daughters…
“First, I need to apologize to you.”
Her original self’s voice suddenly became sincere, breaking the silence.
“I was the one who pulled you into this world, making you suffer so much. I’m sorry.”
“You don’t need to apologize.”
Lin Muyu shook her head, her tone serious and her eyes showing no trace of falseness.
“Thanks to you, I was able to have a second life.”
In her past life, she had already lost her life due to an accident, such an embarrassing accident at that.
If her original self hadn’t pulled her soul into this world, she probably would have completely dissipated between heaven and earth long ago, leaving not even a trace.
Even if she could go back now, she absolutely wouldn’t dare.
That corpse must have been discovered long ago, if she were to resurrect, she’d probably die of social embarrassment.
“Secondly… you can’t handle it after just 4 times? What a weakling~”
Her original self suddenly returned to that teasing demeanor, the corners of her mouth curving into a mischievous arc.
As she spoke, she brought her face closer, her nose almost touching Lin Muyu’s cheek, clearly wanting to see her flustered and blushing appearance.
Lin Muyu wasn’t to be outdone either. Provoked by this attitude, she almost reflexively retorted without thinking:
“Right, not like you with all your battle experience and rich expertise…”
The moment the words left her mouth, she realized something was wrong. Her heart sank with a thud as she abruptly closed her mouth.
Sure enough, the atmosphere around them instantly fell into deathly silence. Even the air seemed to freeze, and the previously warm atmosphere suddenly turned cold.
“Are you saying I’m dirty?”
The smile on her original self’s face slowly faded. She gave a self-deprecating laugh, her tone filled with barely concealed dejection, her eyes also dimming as if covered by a layer of gray, making Lin Muyu’s heart tighten.
“I’m sorry >人<, I didn’t mean it that way!”
Lin Muyu hurriedly apologized, so flustered her face turned red and her eyes grew hot, fumbling to explain.
“I didn’t mean that, after all, I should be about the same as you now…”
But her original self extended a finger and gently pressed it against her lips, the cool touch of her fingertip making Lin Muyu’s words catch in her throat.
Her original self’s face regained its smile, though that smile always carried an indescribable meaning as she said lightly:
“Don’t say anymore, I understand.”
But Lin Muyu could clearly see the loneliness and bitterness hidden behind that smile, like a thin layer of ice covering water’s surface that would shatter at the slightest touch.
She wanted to explain again but was once more interrupted by her original self.
“In that case, give me a kiss and I’ll forgive you!”
Her original self pointed at her own face that was identical to Lin Muyu’s, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Looking at that face that was no different from her own, with even the pores clearly visible, Lin Muyu’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
She hesitated for a moment, her gaze evasive, but finally bit her lip and slowly leaned closer.
As the distance grew shorter and shorter, just when she was about to touch her cheek, her original self suddenly broke the routine, slightly turning her head to actively offer her soft lips.
Lin Muyu had no time to react and couldn’t dodge. The two pairs of soft lips collided together without warning.
Like two sweet jellies, carrying a slightly cool touch yet burning hot.
“Mmm…?”
“Wait… why are you using your tongue… mmm…”
Facing the experienced original self, Lin Muyu was like a complete novice, only able to passively endure this sudden kiss, her mind going blank as she even forgot to resist.
When the kiss ended, her original self nimbly jumped down from the swing, her movements as light as a forest sprite, her skirt drawing a beautiful arc in the air.
Meanwhile, Lin Muyu sat there with a red face, frantically covering her mouth with her hands, looking exactly like a bullied little wife.
Actually, Su Wanqing had forcefully kissed her many times before, those kisses carried an undeniable dominance and roughness that only made her feel disgusted and resistant.
But only this gentle kiss with a touch of playfulness made her heart race.
“You!”
Lin Muyu was just about to say something, looking indignant as if ready to demand an explanation, but was interrupted by her original self.
Her original self turned her back to her, walking slowly forward, her silhouette stretched long in the dim light, while saying:
“Don’t speak. I don’t have much time left.”
“Before I go, I want to tell you a few things. You must remember them well.”
“Don’t forget your purpose for coming here. Don’t let the emotions before you cloud your judgment, it’s not worth it.”
“There’s no need to get tangled up in so much right and wrong, grudges and grievances. After all, our goal was never these things, it was to fight against fate, wasn’t it?”
After speaking, her original self turned around and smiled gently at Lin Muyu, that smile as bright as light suddenly shining in the darkness.
“Also, your little mouth is so sweet~”
As her words fell, her figure began to become transparent, transforming into points of starlight like fireflies scattered by the wind, gradually dissipating bit by bit in this darkness until completely gone without a trace, even the faint fragrance in the air fading away.
Lin Muyu sat stunned in place on the empty swing, her original self’s final words echoing repeatedly in her mind.
That’s right, after staying at Qinglan Sect for so long, she had almost truly forgotten her original purpose.
Forgotten that she came here definitely not to get entangled in these romantic complications.
“Sigh, I should wake up…” She sighed softly, her gaze gradually shifting from confused to determined.
