But ultimately, it was still not gentle enough.
"..." Ah Qing silently took out a white tassel hairband from the drawer and stared at Wen Li’s face.
"Miss, would you... like to try it?"
Ah Qing believed that there was still a way to make ands. As long as Wen Li wore this soft hairband and paired it with a gemstone earring, she would absolutely outshine everyone.
At the very least, Zhu Pingniang, that woman who had nothing, would definitely be overshadowed.
"No need." Wen Li stood up. "Let’s go."
"Alright then... okay." Ah Qing sighed, sowhat disappointed.
What a pity.
At this mont, she suddenly empathized with those won at Piluo Residence.
To realize that having a dressed-up doll to adorn could be such an interesting thing?
I’ve heard... I’ve heard that little girls in the mortal world liked dolls and dressing them up in their childhood. Now... would this count as making up for her nonexistent childhood?
At this mont, Ah Qing’s eyes were covered with a faint pink fog, behind which lay irresistible seductive colors.
If only...
If I could treat Miss Yun like I’m treating Wen Li...
Ah Qing’s heart was moved strongly.
After being Yun Qian’s ’maid’ once, and holding her hand to et Xu Chang’an, she could be considered completely conquered by Yun Qian. She truly liked that girl whose every detail was filled with elents that made people fond of her.
"...?"
Wen Li looked strangely at Ah Qing, whose breathing suddenly beca irregular, head slowly lowered, and eyes shimring with sparkling light.
What was going on with her?
Why did she suddenly seem to have her mind in turmoil?
Wen Li wouldn’t think the change was due to herself, as the clothes she wore were all dressed by Ah Qing’s hands. If she was going to have feelings, it wouldn’t just happen today.
anwhile, Ah Qing was looking for a coat that could be worn, then led Wen Li to the feast.
Wen Li looked at her.
Being Junior to Pingniang; also a Half-Demon, Wen Li asked.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Thinking of soone I like." Ah Qing said casually.
"Soone you like..." Wen Li nodded.
Yes, Half-Demons can also have such extravagant emotions.
Wen Li sotis couldn’t grasp what emotions were, whether it was because she was a Half-Demon and different from ordinary won, especially when before her stood a girl she considered quite nice, who was also a Half-Demon.
Surely she liked the person she was thinking of a lot, being able to get her heart racing even when looking at her wearing a slip.
"What does it feel like to like soone?" Wen Li asked a question she wouldn’t typically ask.
Ah Qing was stunned for a mont too.
Clearly, Ah Qing didn’t expect such private conversations between girlfriends to show up between her and Wen Li, even she was a bit dazed.
But when Ah Qing saw Wen Li’s serious, unwavering gaze, her heart felt a bit helpless.
This Ni Zi... What kind of expression is that?
Leaving aside private topics, Wen Li’s look of earnest academic inquiry made one wonder about her thought process.
Ah Qing shook her head and told Wen Li: "Actually, I don’t have much experience and I’m not sure what liking soone feels like."
What liking feels like, even Ah Qing couldn’t explain. To her, liking soone was based on ’trust,’ sothing that should have been absolutely impossible for her.
If it weren’t for Young Master easily dispelling her surrounding Dao Rhy Cage, saving her from mysteriously being wiped out by Heavenly Dao, Ah Qing figured she couldn’t have placed the weight of her life onto another.
It was due to Xu Chang’an’s appearance and mysterious presence that made Ah Qing realize she wasn’t so high above.
That’s why when she suddenly fell from grace after being filled with bewildernt, her heart moved so distinctly.
One must understand, celestial beings don’t easily fall for mortals unless... she recognizes she’s no longer a fairy.
In this aspect, Ah Qing was like this.
And wasn’t Qing Jun the sa?
How proud she used to be, but after being impacted harshly by the White Jade Heaven-Reaching Purple Thunder, causing her to crash into the mud, she realized... she was just an ordinary woman.
Such is always the case.
"Not sure... that’s true." Wen Li wasn’t surprised.
It’s been just a few years since Zhu Pingniang picked up Ah Qing, and she was bound not to get an answer asking Ah Qing. However, seeing the emotions in Ah Qing’s eyes, perhaps after fernting for so days, Ah Qing might give her a reference-worthy answer.
Ah Qing tilted her head.
The feeling of liking soone...
Truly complex.
Only rembering the rapid beating of the heart.
And the feelings toward the Young Master and Miss Yun were not quite the sa.
Now, rembering when Xu Chang’an walked over to hold an umbrella for her, the lingering rouge scent from when he was applying makeup to his wife... Even now thinking back, it’s so calming.
Yun Qian, in comparison to Xu Chang’an, impacted her even more than he did. The way Miss Yun treated and genuinely saw her as a Half-Demon, no matter which stage, her gaze was always consistent.
Being looked at with such eyes, although there was a sense of sha as if not wearing clothes, the most prevailing feeling was liking, hoping she could look at herself a couple more tis.
How could Ah Qing not like a girl that allowed such direct heart-to-heart exchange?
Tsk.
At this mont, Ah Qing deeply recognized what a vile person she was.
To like one person was one thing, but liking both of them... What does this even an?
"I’m ready." Ah Qing put on her coat, picked up the Pear Blossom Umbrella next to her, and said: "Miss, let’s go to the banquet."
But Wen Li was taken aback.
She recognized the light-colored Pear Blossom Umbrella in Ah Qing’s hand.
This umbrella...
She must not have mistaken.
This umbrella was the standard of Muyu Peak and... was an expression crafted by those younger sisters who admired her, as if embroidering pear blossoms on the umbrella surface would allow closeness to her.
"Oh." Ah Qing noticed Wen Li’s sowhat surprised gaze and explained: "This umbrella was gifted to by Young Master. Miss, what’s up?"
"Given by my junior brother?" Wen Li wasn’t inclined to take a stance.
"You could say that." Ah Qing turned back and smiled.
Actually, it wasn’t gifted by Xu Chang’an.
The umbrella belonged to Muyu Peak and, to be precise, was requested from Zhu Pingniang.
Wen Li also knew her junior brother wouldn’t easily gift a girl a present like this, but she didn’t point it out or relate it to herself.
"I’ve prepared a new umbrella for you, Miss, so it won’t match with yours." Ah Qing took out an umbrella from Flower Moon Building and handed it to Wen Li.
Wen Li took the umbrella and nodded.
Nowadays, going out with an umbrella, she was already accustod to it.
But just as the two were about to step out of the room, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a panting girl in yellow rushed in.
"Ms. Qing!"
As the girl rushed in, before she could speak, she suddenly saw the scene in the room and was stunned.
Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
This woman who was alone with her Ms. Qing... who was she?
Since when did Flower Moon Building have such a beautiful girl?
This kind of girl brought an instant overwhelming sense of inferiority and self-sha to the girl who rushed in, making her montarily speechless.
Seeing this, Ah Qing gave Wen Li an apologetic look and then walked over, helplessly saying.
"You little rascal, so hasty, what happened."
"Ms. Qing..." The girl’s gaze quickly filled with grievance. "You said... I could sleep for a while... then call ."
But upon opening her eyes, she didn’t even see a shadow of Ah Qing.
Going out, she heard that Ah Qing had gone with a really pretty girl to this side... Naturally, she felt anxious.
Alone with soone dear...
And so beautiful.
The girl in yellow hid behind Ah Qing, sneaking glances at Wen Li.
Though she really wanted to say ’Where did this fox spirit co from?’... but facing such a woman’s delicacy, the girl knew impolite words were inappropriate and were a form of desecration.
Therefore, jealousy mixed with unease and inferiority ended in grievances pooled in tears waiting in her eyes.
"...It’s Pingniang’s guest." Ah Qing sorted the girl’s ssy bangs, gently sighed.
Emotions were strange.
The lass was jealous... Jealous of Wen Li?
In this world, really anything can happen.
"Apologize." Ah Qing looked at her.
"Mm..." The girl in yellow cald down, she timidly moved in front of Wen Li, respectfully bowing.
"Miss... I’m sorry."
