Yao looked in the mirror, harboring special feelings.
This feeling is deep and unwavering.
This feeling was extraordinary; it occupied almost all of her thoughts.
She won't deny it arrogantly; instead, she'll admit it openly and generously.
But Wang Qiu'er so bluntly exposed his thoughts to his face, even with a hint of accusation.
Even with Dongfang Yao's excellent mental fortitude, she found it difficult to remain calm at this moment, and the color drained from her face and then returned instantly.
Seeing Dongfang Yao's reaction, Wang Qiu'er confirmed her guess.
Shocked, she even subconsciously took two steps back and blurted out, "I...I'm going to tell Ah Jing!"
She's going to complain?!
Dongfang Yao also panicked, forgetting her embarrassment, and immediately retorted:
"You dare tell him? Believe me, I'll go tell him about your little scheme right now too!!"
She stared at Wang Qiu'er's stiff face and spoke rapidly.
It already carries a sense of desperation and a willingness to burn one's bridges. One might boldly speculate:
"Hmph, I've roughly guessed it! Judging by his personality, he probably only sees you as a friend."
In the beginning, your relationship with him was indeed that simple.
But! Gradually you changed!
Your feelings for him have changed! You can't even admit it yourself!
Or rather, you're afraid to face it! You've fallen for him, haven't you?
Wang Qiu'er froze on the spot.
Her fair cheeks flushed bright red instantly.
This guy is way too perceptive!
How could I see through her so clearly when we've only just met?
Even her own hesitant thoughts were pointed out by the other party!
Nevertheless, Wang Qiu'er was not to be outdone and immediately retorted.
The two argued louder and louder, their tone becoming increasingly aggressive.
Fortunately, the soundproofing at Qibao Inn is quite good.
The sound of rushing water masked the noise outside.
The oriental mirror in the bathroom is focused on washing away fatigue, humming a little tune.
Completely unaware of the fierce confrontation taking place inside the room.
A moment later,
Dongfang Yao and Wang Qiu'er both stopped, slightly out of breath, their chests heaving, glaring at each other.
Clearly, neither of them could convince the other, and their faces were filled with resentment.
Wang Qiu'er took a deep breath, looked intently at the stubborn girl in front of her, and her tone returned to its usual calm:
"Ah Jing is a person with strong opinions. Once he makes up his mind, he won't easily change it. Your feelings for him are unlikely to have a happy ending."
"the same as you."
Dongfang Yao also said calmly, stating the facts, "You have a strong personality and are too possessive. Your affections are too self-centered. A girl who doesn't know how to be tolerant and understanding will probably not be truly liked by him."
"No, what I mean is," Wang Qiu'er shook her head, looking directly at Dongfang Yao, her tone carrying a hint of disappointment, "A-Jing already has someone he likes."
These words were like a needle, piercing Dongfang Yao's heart.
She took a deep breath, suppressing her surging emotions.
His gaze became even more resolute, as firm as a rock!
"So what? I love him, and that feeling won't change! As long as he's by my side, that's enough for me!"
After saying that, she felt that arguing like this would never end.
I calculated the time and felt it was about right.
So, Dongfang Yao raised her hand and made a stop gesture, interrupting Wang Qiu'er's possible rebuttal: "Let's stop this for now. If you still want to argue, we can find another opportunity to talk about it privately later."
Wang Qiu'er frowned, but seeing the other party's serious expression, she nodded and agreed to a temporary truce.
However, the next second...
She saw the girl in front of her start to unbutton her clothes!
She then deftly grabbed a large bath towel from the closet and wrapped it around herself.
Then, she strode towards the bathroom door with a clear goal in mind, her hand already on the doorknob.
Wang Qiu'er's pupils contracted, and instinctively she rushed forward, grabbed Dongfang Yao's arm, and stopped her from opening the door.
"Are you... are you crazy?! What do you want to do?!" Wang Qiu'er's voice was filled with shock and disbelief, her eyes wide open.
Dongfang Yao was rather puzzled by her intense reaction and question.
He turned to look at Wang Qiu'er, his eyes filled with a mixture of confusion and self-righteousness: "Did you grow up in the deep mountains and forests? You don't even understand this?"
If you want to be with someone you like, how can you not actively create opportunities? Do you really expect that blockhead to suddenly realize your feelings on his own?
She paused, looking at Wang Qiu'er's still shocked expression, and continued bluntly:
"Otherwise, why do you think I'm so insistent on sharing a room with him?"
As for you, you finally have the chance to share a room with someone you like, are you really just going to lie down and sleep like that? You don't even know how to seize an opportunity that's right in front of you?
Besides, although I don't know who the person he likes is, it's definitely not going to happen yet!
As the saying goes, first come, first served! I need to get there first!
Wang Qiu'er was stunned by Dongfang Yao's blunt and bold remarks, her mind going completely blank.
Although Dongfang Jing had told her many stories about the human world, such as the tadpoles looking for their mother and Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf.
But these practical skills have never been taught!
In the instant Wang Qiu'er was stunned, Dongfang Yao exerted force and broke free from her grip.
Click.
The doorknob was turned gently.
A sweet smile instantly bloomed on Dongfang Yao's face.
In a sweet, coquettish voice, she called out crisply into the bathroom, "Ta-da! Yao'er's here to scrub your back! Aren't you happy? Aren't you surprised?"
Dongfang Jing, who was comfortably soaking in the bathtub, was startled and lost her balance, slipping on her bottom.
He looked up blankly at the girl who had suddenly burst in through the door.
Dongfang Yao was untying her hair tie in front of the mirror, her long, jet-black hair cascading down her back and down to her waist.
This is completely different from her usual playful and cute appearance when she wears pigtails.
Her long, straight black hair added a touch of maturity and elegance to her, making her appear even more poised and graceful.
Dongfang Yao saw the changes in Dongfang Jing's expression through the mirror.
A slight stirring ran through her heart.
She couldn't help but raise her hand and gently stroke her soft, long hair.
How about I keep this hairstyle from now on?
The girl turned around and asked in a soft, sweet voice, "Do you think Yao'er's hairstyle looks better now, or when she wore pigtails before?"
"You're so good-looking, a lot of hairstyles should suit you," Dongfang Jing replied instinctively.
But my gaze involuntarily drifted away from her face.
He swept his hand over the bath towel that outlined her figure in the steamy air, as well as her slender arms and legs that were exposed.
As soon as he finished speaking,
He then realized what was happening.
wrong,
Now is not the time to be commenting on hairstyles!
