Chapter 22: Caught Red-Handed~

***

Since Su Wanqing had fallen into a coma, Lin Muyu couldn’t cross that vast lake surface to attend the so-called classes.

And there were only two small houses on the leaf where they were located. Lin Muyu couldn’t go anywhere or do anything now.

Having nothing else to do, she could only silently observe Su Wanqing’s living environment.

“As expected, her room is just like this…”

Lin Muyu understood, feeling somewhat speechless. The room Su Wanqing had given her was actually transformed using her own room as a template.

Couldn’t she have made it more refined?

This room was even plainer than her previous house in the small village. Do all cultivators live so simply?

That shouldn’t be right?

Weren’t cultivators supposed to live in magnificent, luxurious palaces?

How come the style at Jade Lotus Peak is so strange?

However, Lin Muyu discovered that Su Wanqing’s room seemed to have one more cabinet than hers, and she didn’t know what was inside it.

That cabinet was about the same size as an ordinary wardrobe at her home, standing quietly in the corner.

“Would it be wrong to go through someone else’s cabinet?”

Lin Muyu hesitated a bit, but couldn’t resist her overwhelming curiosity.

“Never mind, let’s take a look first!”

Having made up her mind, Lin Muyu carefully examined the cabinet.

The cabinet had two levels. Lin Muyu first opened the upper, longer wardrobe section.

Inside the cabinet, she saw several identical Daoist robes neatly stacked, exactly the same as the one Su Wanqing was currently wearing.

“This taste in clothing is really quite simple…”

Lin Muyu felt somewhat speechless. She only remembered that in her previous life, she would also have several identical pieces of clothing.

But she only did that for convenience, wearing them casually was fine, but for formal occasions she would also prepare some handsome clothes.

But Su Wanqing was different, she was a great beauty! So pretty, yet her charm was diminished by these plain Daoist robes. What a shame.

“If I get the chance in the future, I must get her some beautiful clothes!” Lin Muyu thought with some regret.

Suddenly, a strange question flashed through her mind…

“Wait… why don’t I see any undergarments here?”

The careful Lin Muyu only saw several one-piece Daoist robes, but didn’t see the things women wear underneath to protect their privacy.

“Could it be that?” Lin Muyu belatedly realized, suddenly understanding, finding it hard to believe.

Although they had been intimate three times already, Lin Muyu had always been the passive one and hadn’t paid attention to that detail at all.

After all, each time her attention had been focused on resisting, and then she would pass out…

Besides, who would have thought that a cold and proper fairy would actually be like this?

Curiosity drove her to quietly approach the unconscious Su Wanqing, wanting to discover the truth.

She quietly extended her hand toward Su Wanqing’s smooth neck, preparing to investigate.

After all, Su Wanqing had also touched her, and in a very thorough way at that. Lin Muyu had nothing to be shy about.

“Eh? Why does my neck feel ice cold…”

Before Lin Muyu could make her move, she felt something cold being pressed against her neck, along with a slight stinging sensation.

She saw that Su Wanqing’s ice sword, which had been thrown to the ground, was now somehow pressed against her neck, its sharp edge emanating waves of coldness.

“…”

Glancing at Su Wanqing, who was still unconscious, and realizing it wasn’t her doing, Lin Muyu felt somewhat speechless.

“Your sword actually protects its master?”

“Then why didn’t you move when she was bullying me?!”

The sword seemed to understand Lin Muyu’s words and hesitantly moved away some distance.

It could sense that Lin Muyu seemed to have no malicious intent, and besides, this person seemed to have a good relationship with its master?

Lin Muyu took the opportunity to grasp the sword hilt with her hand, inserting it back into its sheath, gently comforting it:

“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to your master. We have a very good relationship~”

Yes, they were so close!

Lin Muyu gritted her teeth a bit. She didn’t want things to be this way, but she was completely powerless to resist.

Their fates seemed to have become completely entangled together due to these variable coincidences, impossible to untangle…

Not wanting to think about it anymore, at this moment she just wanted to quickly satisfy her curiosity!

After all, they were both girls, surely Su Wanqing wouldn’t mind.

So Lin Muyu slowly extended her hand to explore…

“Mmm, no way, really?”

Lin Muyu was somewhat shocked.

Could it be that she really doesn’t understand anything?

How did her master teach her!

…If it was that unreliable person, Lin Muyu could somewhat understand.

Lin Muyu’s mind conjured up the image of that eccentric master reeking of alcohol. Perhaps she was off enjoying herself somewhere right now.

She couldn’t help but feel a bit worried about their future. Could that master really teach the two of them properly?

Should she secretly run away with Su Wanqing?

Coming back to her senses.

“But this Daoist robe is really quite magical.” Lin Muyu praised the material of the robe a bit, because this Daoist robe didn’t reveal anything that shouldn’t be revealed about Su Wanqing.

“Mmm…”

Su Wanqing unconsciously let out a few soft moans, startling Lin Muyu into quickly withdrawing her hand.

“So she hasn’t woken up.”

Seeing Su Wanqing’s eyes still tightly closed, Lin Muyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this was the perfect moment to get revenge on Su Wanqing, Lin Muyu would never take advantage of someone when they’re down!

Besides, Su Wanqing looked exceptionally weak right now…

“Since I’m idle anyway, why don’t I sew some undergarments for her?”

She could use the clothes in her cabinet to modify them, but she lacked needles and scissors…

Seeming to think of something, Lin Muyu also stomped her feet like Su Wanqing had done, calling out to the ground:

“Lotus leaf, could you give me a needle?”

Lin Muyu, who originally had no expectations, suddenly discovered that the ground in front of her began growing a jade-colored vine that was delivering something.

Looking carefully, it was actually a needle with a jade-like luster and a jade pair of scissors!

“Thank you, lotus leaf.”

She hadn’t expected the lotus leaf to actually understand her words. Somewhat delighted, she accepted the needle and scissors.

However, after Lin Muyu took them, the vine didn’t disappear. Instead, it swayed in place, seeming to express something.

Lin Muyu didn’t know what this meant, but she found this scene seemed familiar… just like the little dog she used to have at home wagging its tail for attention!

“Do you want me to pet you?” Lin Muyu carefully inquired.

Unexpectedly, the vine obediently bobbed up and down, as if nodding.

So Lin Muyu confidently placed her hand on the vine to stroke it. The smooth jade-like feeling made her very comfortable.

“So well-behaved~”

After Lin Muyu’s petting and praise, the vine also seemed satisfied and happily slowly retracted.

How magical!

She never would have thought that the lotus leaf would actually be so obedient. This was truly an unexpected joy.

“Then in the future, wouldn’t I be able to handle things without bothering Su Wanqing?” Lin Muyu thought this way. She absolutely didn’t want to owe Su Wanqing any favors if she could avoid it.

Because she discovered that the favors she owed were all repaid in strange ways…

“That method is completely unnecessary. My small body can’t handle it.”

During her year in the small village, because she needed to mend the somewhat tattered clothes on her body, Lin Muyu had secretly learned needlework from the village women.

She had even been mocked, what was a grown man doing learning needlework…

Unfortunately, the skill remained, but the people who taught her were no longer there.

“Sigh.”

Thinking of this, Lin Muyu sighed. She must have her revenge!

It’s just that she was currently too weak and needed to cultivate properly for a while.

A gentleman’s revenge is never too late, even after 10 years!

Although she was no longer a gentleman now, it still wasn’t too late!

Before long, Lin Muyu had finished sewing the undergarments and prepared to try them on the sleeping Su Wanqing.

She skillfully jumped onto the bed, straddling Su Wanqing’s waist in an intimate position, placing her hands on the restraining sash and gently pulling…

Suddenly, Lin Muyu’s body stiffened, and her movements stopped, frozen in mid-air.

It wasn’t because she was frozen by seeing Su Wanqing’s body, after all, she had seen everything she needed to see already.

But rather… at some point, those tightly closed eyes had suddenly opened and were quietly staring at her, thinking unknown thoughts.

Lin Muyu looked at what had already been uncovered… but didn’t have any strange thoughts in her mind.

Because her small face immediately turned red from embarrassment, with steam quietly rising from the top of her head.

“Damn it, why did she have to wake up at this exact moment…”

She had been caught red-handed…
