Chapter 24-2: The First Person You Sleep With

Thinking this, Jing Shuxuan next to her suddenly lost her appeal. She was completely engrossed in her thoughts until Jing Shuxuan suddenly called her, and only then did she realize it was almost eleven o'clock.

"Xiangyi, I have to work tomorrow, so I'm going to bed first. If you're tired, come sleep with me," Jing Shuxuan informed Qin Xiangyi about the state of the bed. Her attitude was very natural, showing that the two of them had a genuinely good relationship.

At least, it seemed like they had slept in each other's beds before.

Qin Xiangyi hummed in response. She put down her phone, which was filled with notes, and looked up at Jing Shuxuan again. "Sister Shuxuan, let's sleep together. I'm tired too."

Jing Shuxuan was a little surprised and said humorously, "Aren't you going to chat with your little girlfriend anymore?"

Qin Xiangyi was also amused and replied jokingly, "How can she be more important than you, my wife?"

Among girls, it was common to joke about husbands and wives. Jing Shuxuan didn't react further and hugged Qin Xiangyi, who was slightly shorter than her, continuing, "Okay, husband, let's sleep together."

With that, the two of them laughed and walked into the bedroom.

Jing Shuxuan's bedroom was very simple and had a faint fragrance. Seeing Qin Xiangyi standing there in a daze, she pointed to the bed and asked, "Are you going to sleep on the left or the right?"

Qin Xiangyi thought for a moment and decided to sleep on the left. Jing Shuxuan seemed a little surprised and then smiled, "I wouldn't have guessed that Little Yi, you look so delicate and weak, but you're quite domineering."

Qin Xiangyi was completely confused and heard Jing Shuxuan continue to explain, "Generally speaking, people who sleep closer to the door tend to be more caring and make others feel secure... Ah, looking at your confused little eyes, to put it more simply, it's like a couple walking on the street; the one closer to the road is usually the man... How should I put it, it just makes people feel very secure."

Jing Shuxuan began her somewhat girlish interpretation. Qin Xiangyi recalled carefully and indeed remembered such scenes happening. For someone who lacked a sense of security, this gesture was truly heartwarming.

"Hehe, Little Yi, it seems you haven't realized your actions at all yet, but it's okay. If it's about romance, I can teach you hand in hand," Jing Shuxuan continued to joke, pushing Qin Xiangyi onto the bed as if she was about to do something.

Qin Xiangyi also cooperated with a smile, spreading her arms and saying, "Okay, come teach me quickly."

Jing Shuxuan, who had only intended to tease Qin Xiangyi, was instead teased. She said helplessly, "It's always the same, so boring. Don't you ever get shy?"

Her words seemed to imply that something like this had happened before. Qin Xiangyi didn't dare to say much more, slowly got into bed, covered her stomach slightly with the air-conditioned quilt, and then said, "It's just that Sister Shuxuan, your acting is too bad; it's impossible to create that feeling."

Jing Shuxuan felt a bit dejected. She pounced on Qin Xiangyi again in dissatisfaction, "Then I'll really kiss you a few times and make your future husband regret it!"

Saying this, Jing Shuxuan lunged like a wolf, but Qin Xiangyi easily subdued her with a counter-move. The roles of attacker and defender were swapped again, and Qin Xiangyi's expression held a confident smile.

Although she had never been in love, the thousands of romance novels she had read in her mind were not read in vain. Looking at the current scene, she naturally wanted Jing Shuxuan to realize something.

"Sister Shuxuan, I want to tell you that even women can be dangerous." She smiled at the suppressed Jing Shuxuan, trying to create a kissing atmosphere. But she couldn't actually kiss her; instead, she passively made Jing Shuxuan have that thought, thereby changing their positions.

"You..." Jing Shuxuan was stunned and stared at Qin Xiangyi. She felt that the person in front of her was Qin Xiangyi, yet she also felt that this was different from the original Qin Xiangyi, as if her brain had been damaged and a second Qin Xiangyi had emerged.

But just as Jing Shuxuan felt a sense of pressure, Qin Xiangyi smiled, let go, took off her glasses, and prepared to sleep.

Her movements were so smooth and quick that Jing Shuxuan hadn't even had time to calm her racing heart. Jing Shuxuan looked at Qin Xiangyi again and saw her stunning beauty after taking off her glasses.

Her facial features still showed Qin Xiangyi's original appearance, but they were exquisitely beautiful beyond words. Especially her aura, which had a hint of ethereal charm, as if she were an otherworldly visitor.

If one were to rate appearance on a scale, Jing Shuxuan would be a 90, while Qin Xiangyi in front of her would be 180. She was even more beautiful than Hua Nu, who was a 150, but still not comparable to the Flower God Huangquan.

"Sister Shuxuan, did I scare you?" Seeing Jing Shuxuan staring at her again, Qin Xiangyi thought she had played too much and left a shadow on Jing Shuxuan, who claimed to dislike the Chosen One.

If that were the case, her desire to kiss Jing Shuxuan would become even more troublesome. Qin Xiangyi felt anxious and tried to move closer to Jing Shuxuan to apologize, but Jing Shuxuan suddenly made a stopping gesture and said, "It's fine, let's sleep, let's sleep. I still have to work tomorrow."

After saying that, Jing Shuxuan turned and switched off the nearby light, plunging the room into darkness. Only then did she feel a little better.

But her heart was still beating a little fast. Because of that face, she even had a strange fantasy.

That thought made her face flush. It was clearly she who was bullying Qin Xiangyi, yet she was instead mesmerized by Qin Xiangyi's face.

The terrifying thing was that Qin Xiangyi still didn't understand that she was the cause of all this. Hearing Jing Shuxuan's heart beating too strongly, she was worried about Jing Shuxuan's health.

"Sister Shuxuan, are you really okay?"

"I'm fine, I'm tired. Let's sleep, let's sleep." Jing Shuxuan replied perfunctorily and then felt the person behind her getting closer, even touching her waist.

If the other person were a man, they probably wouldn't even be allowed into the room. But this was a woman, and in fact, Jing Shuxuan considered her a familiar little sister. Yet now, this little sister had suddenly become so charming, making Jing Shuxuan realize that she seemed to be acting strangely.

"Goodnight then. Oh, right, I'm not a good sleeper. If I do anything bad, just wake me up directly," Qin Xiangyi added politely.

This was the first girl she had slept with since coming to this world, so Qin Xiangyi didn't know what her sleeping habits were like.

"Huh? Little Yi, you've always been a good sleeper." Jing Shuxuan turned her head upon hearing this, almost bumping faces with Qin Xiangyi. Fortunately, her reaction was extremely fast. In that instant, in the dim light from outside, Qin Xiangyi's eyes were still captivating in the moonlight.

"A lot has happened recently, so..." Qin Xiangyi wasn't flustered when her lie was exposed, explaining that her changes were due to the recent events.

Jing Shuxuan also calmed down as she listened, feeling that she was being too unreasonable. Clearly, the person in front of her was just a child; how could she be thinking of so many strange things? At this moment, Jing Shuxuan's mind was at peace, and she pulled Qin Xiangyi into her embrace.

But at the same time, Jing Shuxuan regretted it...

Chapter 25-1: The Fragrance of Flowers

The face so close was incredibly striking. Jing Shuxuan wondered if it was her imagination, but as she got closer, she could even smell a pleasant fragrance.

She couldn't quite describe the scent, but after taking a breath, it made her want to take another.

They used the same shampoo and body wash, yet the scent on the other person was more pleasant than her own. This strange feeling made Jing Shuxuan's heart race again. She tried to stop her abnormality but found herself even less in control.

This torment made her want to let go of Qin Xiangyi, but she worried that letting go now would make the other person overthink things.

Her brain sent signals, telling her she was very tired, but her body was unusually excited because of that scent. Thinking about her work tomorrow, Jing Shuxuan still wanted to say something to Qin Xiangyi, but before she could speak, she felt the rhythm of Qin Xiangyi's breathing.

It was so steady and peaceful, as if she had truly fallen asleep in her arms. Jing Shuxuan felt distressed but then remembered Qin Xiangyi's recent experiences and felt immense pity. In the end, she didn't struggle and fell asleep in that position.

After about ten minutes of back and forth, Jing Shuxuan was completely exhausted, her breathing finally evening out.

At this moment, Qin Xiangyi's eyes snapped open. She quietly slipped out of Jing Shuxuan's grasp and rolled off the bed. Then, worried that Jing Shuxuan might wake up, she called out for the Hua Nu.

Qin Xiangyi: Hua Nu, do you still have that sleep aid incense from last time?

Hua Nu: Of course, but if you want to use it on ordinary humans, it needs to be diluted.

Qin Xiangyi: How long will that take?

Hua Nu: A few minutes.

Qin Xiangyi calculated that this likely referred to the time in the real world converted from the Flower God Ring's time. She waited patiently for a few minutes, and the Hua Nu floated over, holding a small ceramic bottle.

The bottle was exquisite, looking like an antique. However, Qin Xiangyi couldn't understand how the Hua Nu could produce so many things when the Flower God Ring seemed to be empty.

Hua Nu: Flower Master, do you have any other questions?

Qin Xiangyi: I'm very curious, you don't seem to have much, yet you can always produce so many strange things.

The Hua Nu replied: Each of us has a storage ring. The items inside are time-locked and are only taken out when needed.

Qin Xiangyi suddenly understood, recalling settings like storage rings or Qiankun bags from many novels. But if everyone had one, it implied that the storage ring contained a vast amount of items, or that the Hua Nu before her was actually a wealthy individual.

Seeing the golden glint in Qin Xiangyi's eyes, the Hua Nu chuckled, "Flower Master, are you perhaps short on living expenses? I see this gold is quite valuable, but where I come from, it's merely an auxiliary material for weapons. If you want some, just ask."

The Hua Nu's reply was respectful, but her tone indicated that her storage ring held quite a few treasures.

In her understanding, the Hua Nu, having lived the longest and being Huangquan the Flower God's housekeeper, would naturally possess an immense fortune and materials.

Qin Xiangyi: I'll ask when I'm short on money. What I lack now is strength. It's about half an hour until dawn, and I plan to train.

With that, Qin Xiangyi opened the Flower God Ring and entered it. Shaoyao was left to monitor Jing Shuxuan, to prevent any strange misunderstandings if Jing Shuxuan woke up while Qin Xiangyi was focused.

The Hua Nu was very satisfied with Qin Xiangyi's attitude. Since she was inside the ring, she didn't need to communicate with Qin Xiangyi using divine sense. She said, "Flower Master, you are truly the most diligent human I have ever seen."

Qin Xiangyi smiled. She wouldn't tell the Hua Nu that she already knew her fate of being pinned down by the villain in Heaven City, and that this encounter would be a particularly brutal one. Qin Xiangyi, being both cowardly and afraid of pain, naturally intended to work hard before entering Heaven City.

"Heh, isn't it because I'm worried I won't have the strength to protect you all?" Of course, Qin Xiangyi remained polite in her words.

The Hua Nu smiled, her expression becoming more meaningful, "But I always feel like the Flower Master somehow knows the secrets of heaven."

Qin Xiangyi smiled but didn't respond, projecting an air of seasoned calculation. Although the Hua Nu appeared amiable, she was, apart from Huangquan the Flower God, the most difficult Flower Person to deal with. To gain such a Flower Person's sincere respect, Qin Xiangyi's efforts would have to be doubled.

Once she gained the Hua Nu's true loyalty, she would truly become Qin Xiangyi's capable assistant, rather than just outwardly compliant while still harboring reservations about Qin Xiangyi behind her back.

"Alright, let's talk less and do more. The cultivation technique I'm giving you now is the simplest sword art."

As she spoke, the Hua Nu casually waved her hand, conjuring a long sword. The sword was exceptionally beautiful, its craftsmanship alone suggesting it was incredibly valuable. Even more wondrous was that the sword emitted a faint glow, but it wasn't the cheap luminescence of a toy sword. The light exuded a sense of power; with a mere flick of the Hua Nu's finger, the sword seemed to gain a consciousness and begin to move.

Qin Xiangyi was extremely curious, but the Hua Nu then picked up a branch from a nearby tree. Even more astonishingly, she merely swung the branch a few times, and it abruptly lengthened. A gentle sweep sent a strong gust of wind blowing.

"Granny Hua, aren't you skilled in medicine? How come it seems you're also very good with a sword?" Qin Xiangyi was even more puzzled. The Hua Nu hid the displeasure in her eyes and continued, "I did have martial arts before, but someone found me displeasing and crippled my skills."

She spoke very calmly, yet beneath that calmness lay the quiet before a storm. Qin Xiangyi filed this away, sensing that if the Hua Nu ever betrayed her, it would likely be related to this.

The Hua Nu was neither wholly good nor evil, appearing like someone with a rebellious streak.

"Alright, no more talk. I'll demonstrate it once. How much you understand is up to your own ability." With that, the Hua Nu tossed the long sword to her.

This approach left Qin Xiangyi a bit bewildered. She had thought the branch was for her to use, but instead, she was given a real sword. However, as the Hua Nu began her sword dance, Qin Xiangyi focused intently, memorizing every detail.

The eidetic memory copied from Shaoyao was a great help. It was as if she could never forget any detail after seeing it once. Her memory was like a recorded video that could be replayed, perfectly recreating every detail. By the time the Hua Nu finished her sword dance, Qin Xiangyi had absorbed it all.

Chapter 26-2 You're Acting Strange

"Did you learn it?"

"Yes, Granny Hua."

Qin Xiangyi replied, noticing the disdain in the Hua Nu's eyes, as if she thought she was exaggerating. Qin Xiangyi smiled and then somewhat clumsily raised the long sword. The moment she drew the sword from its scabbard, she nearly collapsed under its weight.

Even after improving her physique for thirty months within the Flower God Ring, she was still not strong enough to wield a sword.

"It seems the previous marrow cleansing was somewhat useful; at least I didn't fall over immediately." The Hua Nu showed a hint of admiration and then added sternly, "From today onwards, you will begin learning this sword technique."

Qin Xiangyi gripped the sword, which felt like it weighed a thousand pounds, and asked, "Granny Hua, you still haven't told me the name of this sword technique."

The Hua Nu stopped and thought for a moment before answering.

"This is Falling Leaves Plucking Flowers from the Flower Cherishing Record. If you can grasp its essence, you won't need a long sword to kill; anything in your hands will become the most powerful weapon. As for this sword, it's just to build your strength." The Hua Nu's tone was laced with malice, as if she didn't have high hopes for Qin Xiangyi's abilities.

Perhaps due to the principle of "similarities repel," the Hua Nu wasn't as polite. But regardless, Qin Xiangyi had no choice but to resign herself to continuing.

One day, two days...

Qin Xiangyi found the sword becoming lighter. What she previously needed two hands to grip tightly, she could now easily control with one hand and began to wield it smoothly.

However, if it were for killing, the sword still felt sluggish.

Five days, six days...

The Hua Nu, surprised, pointed out a few more moves, and Qin Xiangyi's progress accelerated even further.

Until Shaoyao sent a reminder, and Qin Xiangyi even heard a system notification.

System: Congratulations to the user for obtaining Sword Mastery. Your learning rate for any future sword techniques will increase by 10%.

If the Flower God Ring was about creating a learning environment, then the system was about adding auxiliary learning. As long as one was diligent enough within the Flower God Ring, there was no problem that couldn't be learned.

"Flower Master, Jing Shuxuan is about to wake up." Shaoyao's voice reminded her again. Qin Xiangyi didn't hesitate and emerged from the Flower God Ring. However, she was a step too late. Just as Jing Shuxuan opened her eyes, Qin Xiangyi was standing by the bedside.

Having learned swordsmanship, Qin Xiangyi's demeanor had improved. Jing Shuxuan glanced at her a few times, seemingly thinking she was dreaming, and then smiled before going back to sleep. Qin Xiangyi breathed a sigh of relief. She went back to take a bath and, before Jing Shuxuan officially got up, quietly climbed back into the covers.

But due to her powerful body, she merely closed her eyes and entered a state of semi-sleep, simultaneously absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

After an unknown amount of time, Jing Shuxuan opened her eyes and noticed the distance that had grown between herself and Qin Xiangyi. She seemed a little confused but didn't dwell on it. Instead, her gaze was fixed on Qin Xiangyi, feeling as though the person before her had somehow changed again.

"Why does it feel different somehow?" Jing Shuxuan murmured softly. If she hadn't had self-control, she felt she would have been unable to resist pinching Qin Xiangyi's cheek.

But she still didn't dare to do so. She stared blankly for a few more minutes until she felt she absolutely had to get up, and then she slowly got out of bed.

Qin Xiangyi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Glancing sideways, she saw Jing Shuxuan begin to change her clothes with her back to her.

A professional outfit and an elegant updo showcased the mature charm of an urban woman. However, Jing Shuxuan seemed to deliberately make herself appear older, so she would wear slightly heavier makeup. This was why her initial appearance score was only 85.

And today, she seemed to be making an even more deliberate effort to make herself look less attractive, perhaps because of something unpleasant that happened at work.

For instance, workplace harassment.
