[WeChat] Zhang Mou: You're the first, but I hope you'll be the last.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: But if the hotel is fine, why go to your place?

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: What, are you scared? My husband passed away long ago, and I live alone.

Xiangyi could imagine Zhang Mou's current demeanor from her teasing tone. However, she still couldn't understand why she needed to go to Zhang Mou's house.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: Of course I'm not scared. I checked the schedule, and I can only go at night.

To prevent any accidents, Xiangyi decided to shorten the time. As soon as she got the second kiss, she would run away and pretend to have vanished from the face of the earth.

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: What a shame. I wanted to have a drink with you and spend our last days leisurely.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: You say that like you're going somewhere. It's okay, there's still a long future ahead.

Xiangyi spoke suggestively, and Zhang Mou sent a smiling emoji, as if satisfied with the answer. Immediately after, Zhang Mou wanted to start a video call with Xiangyi.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: Sorry, I'm in my dorm right now, it's a bit inconvenient.

She chose to refuse this time. Especially with Shuxuan right beside her, it was difficult for her to go to the balcony or the restroom again, as it would make Shuxuan think she was up to something illicit.

Zhang Mou didn't press further. They chatted about the delicious food she had eaten these past few days and how she had been living, treating Xiangyi like an old friend. That feeling made Xiangyi feel their relationship was peculiar, as if Zhang Mou had various needs from her, and because she accepted them, Zhang Mou continued to have them.

Even at forty, Zhang Mou had become much more mature and steady, but fundamentally, as long as she had emotions, she would still lose control, feel lonely, and crave love and to be loved.

Although she understood that this was due to Zhang Mou's needs, Xiangyi still found it incredible and couldn't help but ask about Zhang Mou's thoughts.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: Can I ask you a question?

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: That depends on whether I can answer it.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: Why did you choose me? You're beautiful, seem wealthy, and have many other options.

Xiangyi was puzzled. She had only met Zhang Mou once and helped her, but that wasn't enough for this woman, who usually seemed like a hedgehog, to let down her guard and choose her.

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: Hmm, this question is a bit difficult to answer. Just think of it as you're very beautiful, so I was attracted.

She had expected Zhang Mou to say some sweet nothings to coax her, but the answer left Xiangyi a bit dazed. She stared for a while, and Shuxuan's gaze next to her became sharper, as if she sensed an unusual atmosphere between Xiangyi and the other person.

Xiangyi instinctively hid the information and continued typing.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: I don't think your explanation is convincing at all.

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: Then do you want to hear my real thoughts?

Zhang Mou asked tentatively. Xiangyi pondered for a moment and decided to ask. Once she knew Zhang Mou's inner world, she wouldn't have any burdens, even if she ran away.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: I want to know.

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: You are beautiful, smart, clean, and have a good temper. Most importantly, you are a girl. Being with you, I have no extra burdens.

Then, as if feeling the previous sentence wasn't enough, Zhang Mou, lacking security, typed another line.

Chapter 102 [3] I want both fish and bear's paw!

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: You're a girl, so I don't have to worry about pregnancy, nor do I have to worry about you trying to take everything in my life.

And the last sentence was probably the most important reason Zhang Mou chose Xiangyi. Her answer was very rational, even giving Xiangyi the illusion that they were discussing a business deal.

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: Of course, if you need anything, I can pay for your monthly support. If you have an urgent need, I can also lend you a large sum of money. All you have to do is accompany me every day and not have any ambiguous relationships with others.

Xiangyi's expression was subtle as she witnessed a live demonstration of a rich woman offering sponsorship. Although Zhang Mou was only a collateral branch of the Qin family, she was still part of high society. Coupled with her social skills, she had brought significant benefits to the company, which was why the main Qin family treated her very well.

Xiangyi filtered the information in her mind and then silently pressed the screenshot button. If possible, she wanted to post an anonymous thread about her sudden fear of being sponsored.

But in an instant, Shuxuan's cough beside her made her realize she didn't have the luxury to be frivolous. She composed her expression and saw Zhang Mou type another message.

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: Did I scare you? I've always been very realistic, which is probably why I don't even have friends. If you feel you can't accept this kind of relationship, we can say goodbye today.

But Zhang Mou was decisive. If Xiangyi said no, this relationship would be completely severed, let alone Xiangyi getting what she wanted. Xiangyi became a little anxious. Regardless of what happened with Zhang Mou later, she needed to get the most important thing first.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: I don't need your sponsorship, I can work part-time myself. But our progress is too fast, and I don't know if I can be with you long-term.

Xiangyi softened her words, informing Zhang Mou that she would run away at any time. Rather than being a scumbag who only made promises, it was better to be upfront about everything.

Zhang Mou sent a handshake emoji, giving Xiangyi the illusion of successfully negotiating a salary with her boss.

Regardless, the two agreed on a time and place. Zhang Mou even sent Xiangyi some pocket money in advance, which made Xiangyi's mood peculiar.

Zhang Mou was both a beautiful woman and, on the surface, her patron. That strange feeling gave Xiangyi an extra thrill.

[WeChat] Xiangyi: Let's end our conversation here for today. We'll talk properly tomorrow when we meet.

[WeChat] Zhang Mou: Okay, see you tomorrow.

As they spoke, Zhang Mou sent a kissing emoji. It was the first time Xiangyi had seen such a woman act so coy. But she couldn't even send a cute sticker like that, so she simply sent a rose, a token of affection from a junior to a senior.

After doing all this, Xiangyi put down her phone and suddenly thought of something even more dreadful.

Tomorrow was Sunday, and Shuxuan would be home all day. What excuse could she use to fool Shuxuan into letting her stay out overnight?

Xiangyi found herself in a dilemma but maintained the posture of looking at her phone, secretly switching to another WeChat account.

This was an Android app that allowed her to run two WeChat accounts simultaneously. Xiangyi feared that two phones would be too conspicuous, so she downloaded this app. Now, she switched to her regular WeChat account and saw several messages from Muning, along with some shares about Heaven City.

Muning, who had been feeling down, became cheerful upon learning that Xiangyi would also be going to Heaven City. Xiangyi wasn't sure if this was the right thing to do, so she chatted with Muning about random things, passing the time.

When she noticed the people around her, Jing Shuxuan had a stern face, looking very angry.

"Sister Shuxuan, I want to go with Ning Ning tomorrow..." Qin Xiangyi decided to use Zhou Muning as a cover to create an opportunity for her to visit Zhang Mou's house that night.

"No."

Jing Shuxuan immediately refused. Realizing her attitude was a bit off, she softened her tone and said, "I want to buy you more things tomorrow. You're leaving on Monday, so you can't go anywhere."

Qin Xiangyi put on a troubled expression. "But I already made plans with Ning Ning."

Jing Shuxuan didn't hesitate at all. "Then let her come with you."

She clearly didn't want Qin Xiangyi to spend time alone with Zhou Muning, and absolutely didn't want anything like that to happen, even if she was just watching their interaction.

Qin Xiangyi felt a bit depressed and, with a thought, began to play the victim.

"But Ning Ning and I are parting soon, and I don't know when we'll see each other again."

Qin Xiangyi spoke with increasing sadness. She thought that Jing Shuxuan, being easily swayed, would eventually give in to her persistence, but Jing Shuxuan's refusal was even more decisive.

"No means no! You can't go anywhere tomorrow, you have to stay with me!" Jing Shuxuan raised her voice and looked at Qin Xiangyi, her tone surprisingly domineering. After she got angry, Jing Shuxuan realized she might have gone too far.

Looking at Qin Xiangyi, who seemed frightened by her outburst, Jing Shuxuan rubbed her temples, trying to calm herself down from her anger. However, even now, she didn't seem to understand the reason for her anger; she just felt that she didn't want Qin Xiangyi to spend time with Zhou Muning.

"I'm sorry, Sister Shuxuan." Qin Xiangyi could only apologize first, while pondering what other tricks she could use.

She was going to Zhang Mou's house that night, so she couldn't scare Zhang Mou again; that would only complicate things further.

Seeing Qin Xiangyi looking down, Jing Shuxuan tried hard to explain the reason for her outburst.

"Xiao Yi, I don't know what your relationship with Zhou Muning is, but our feelings for each other are no less than hers. You're reluctant to part, and I am too, but your attitude now makes it seem like she's more important than me." The more she explained, the more she realized something was still off, as if she were just jealous of Zhou Muning and didn't want Qin Xiangyi to go out.

Her last night should have belonged to her and Qin Xiangyi, not Qin Xiangyi with Zhou Muning.

Qin Xiangyi felt a bit dizzy listening. She knew that girls could be possessive, and Jing Shuxuan's possessiveness was clearly a bit strong, leaving her unsure how to respond. What kind of expression and attitude should she adopt?

"I'm sorry, Sister Shuxuan, it's my fault." But for now, Qin Xiangyi chose to apologize first. Even though she didn't know the reason for her fault, apologizing first would soothe Jing Shuxuan's emotions.

Chapter 103[4]Let's Try Again From a Different Angle

Jing Shuxuan's mood finally improved, and she said, "How about this: we'll pack our things in the morning, and in the afternoon, you can go out with Zhou Muning, but you have to be back before dinner."

Qin Xiangyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She couldn't ask Zhang Mou to change their date time. If she had known this earlier, she would have asked Jing Shuxuan first and then confirmed the rest of the plan with Zhang Mou.

Could it be that she had to resort to her old tricks again?

Qin Xiangyi's heart was in turmoil. Zhang Mou's lips made her reluctant to part, yet Jing Shuxuan was someone she couldn't afford to offend. But she couldn't split herself into two to deal with these two different situations simultaneously.

'Split... split...'

Suddenly, Qin Xiangyi thought of Little Grass's ability. As long as Little Grass possessed someone, ordinary people could basically become tools. If she could get Little Grass to find an excuse to make Jing Shuxuan work overtime at the company, then she would have proof that she was at home that night.

Even if Jing Shuxuan really came home, Little Grass could inform her of everything remotely.

With this thought, Qin Xiangyi pretended to play with her phone, but in reality, she was using her consciousness to communicate with Little Grass, asking her to notify the three Little Grasses she had previously possessed.

Little Grass: Flower Master, what are your orders?

Qin Xiangyi explained her idea to the three Little Grasses. Little Grass expressed difficulty, stating that none of them were in the sales department, and Jing Shuxuan, being a manager, had no authority to order her to work overtime.

Little Grass: However, everyone knows that the sales department manager is quite unhappy with her. Why don't you send another Little Grass to possess the sales department manager? That way, you can get Jing Shuxuan to go to the company. Given their relationship, Jing Shuxuan wouldn't be suspicious and would just assume it was retaliation for the previous contract issue with Young Master Chen.

Qin Xiangyi's eyes lit up. She thought Little Grass's suggestion made sense.

As long as she found the sales department manager tomorrow afternoon, this entire plan could be successful. With Zhou Muning as a cover, Jing Shuxuan would definitely not discover her unusual actions.

With the plan confirmed, Qin Xiangyi's mood instantly improved. She reached out and hugged Jing Shuxuan, saying, "Sister Shuxuan, I knew you were the best!"

Jing Shuxuan, who had been looking at Qin Xiangyi quietly, was a bit taken aback, but after being hugged, she felt uncomfortable. She instinctively pulled away, seemingly remembering kissing Qin Xiangyi secretly last night.

Qin Xiangyi naturally pretended not to know, agreed to the time Jing Shuxuan had set, and then pretended to try to get more time to spend with Zhou Muning.

"But you could have brought Zhou Muning along, wouldn't that save some time? I wouldn't bother you." Jing Shuxuan asked curiously, not understanding whether Qin Xiangyi was planning a heist or a date, insisting on spending one-on-one time with Zhou Muning. Her gaze was somewhat wary, as if she were still suspicious of Qin Xiangyi's relationship with Zhou Muning.

Coupled with Qin Xiangyi's previous claim to like girls when she was tricking Young Master Chen, Jing Shuxuan's feelings towards Zhou Muning were very subtle.

"Compared to a threesome, one-on-one conversation is better, Sister Shuxuan. Although you're trying hard to hide it, I can tell you don't like Ning Ning, right?" Qin Xiangyi continued her deception. Jing Shuxuan didn't deny it and nodded honestly.

"Since all three of us would be unhappy, it's better to do it one-on-one."

Qin Xiangyi explained with a serious face. Jing Shuxuan reached out and gently touched her nose, then said, "You sound like a player, I'm really worried you'll go bad when you get to Heaven City."

Jing Shuxuan's face showed helplessness, but she didn't realize that Qin Xiangyi was already on the path to becoming bad. Qin Xiangyi smiled guiltily and, after a lot of talking, managed to change the subject.

They watched TV for a while longer, and around midnight, they went to bed. Jing Shuxuan seemed a bit restless, and with their impending separation, she chatted with Qin Xiangyi. Qin Xiangyi could feel Jing Shuxuan's kindness towards her, but unfortunately, even the most wonderful people were just passersby in this story...

After about an hour, Jing Shuxuan fell asleep while talking. Qin Xiangyi covered her with a blanket, and then, worried, used aromatherapy to help Jing Shuxuan enter a deep sleep state before entering the Flower God Ring.

Since Oleander was activated, the Flower God Ring had been incredibly quiet. If she hadn't been with Jing Shuxuan, Qin Xiangyi would have been too bored and would have gone in to check the situation long ago.

Now that the real-world matters were finally settled, she entered the special space of the Flower God Ring, feeling a bit dazed.

Large areas were pitted and uneven, filled with traces of past battles. The peach demon named Yaoyao was cowering in a corner, trembling, while the Flower God Huangquan sat leisurely on the only intact open space. As for Little Grass, she was still maintaining a defensive formation, warily watching her surroundings as if waiting for an enemy.

"Is the Inner Demon here again?" Qin Xiangyi looked dazed, recalling the Inner Demon during Shaoyao's evolution.

Little Grass shook her head frantically. She was too preoccupied to pay much attention. The more Qin Xiangyi looked, the less she understood. She walked directly towards the Flower God Huangquan, only to see Huangquan, who had been reading a book in a chair, suddenly disappear.

When Xiangyi noticed again, Huangquan was already by her side, pulling her directly into her embrace. The more Xiangyi looked, the stranger it felt, but then she noticed something was wrong with her clothes. Her intact clothing had suddenly turned to shreds, scaring Xiangyi into covering herself.

Upon a second glance, the one who had flown past wasn't anyone else but the newly activated Top-tier Flower PersonOleander. She was still as petite, holding a long sword in her hand, her gaze sharply scanning her surroundings as if searching for someone.

Oleander seemed to quickly realize what she had just done and hurriedly flew before Xiangyi to apologize.

"Flower Master, this subordinate deserves a thousand deaths!" Oleander said with a serious expression, kneeling in mid-air and begging for forgiveness from Xiangyi.

Xiangyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but considering her current state, she decided to find some clothes to change into first. As she turned her head, she felt a garment suddenly appear on her. Immediately after, Xiangyi saw the person who had given her the clothes—it was the Flower God Huangquan.

Her gaze remained cold, but she still maintained a posture of standing beside Xiangyi. Xiangyi couldn't decipher her emotions, but it seemed she wasn't as indifferent as imagined.

Xiangyi quickly grabbed the ancient-style dress and put it on.

The red garment was incredibly luxurious and appeared very thick, yet it felt very light when worn, its texture as if it were air. Moreover, the dress had a peculiar sensation, as if it were alive.

"Thank you, Huangquan," Xiangyi felt even more emotional, but in an instant, the dress seemed to sense her feelings, covering her body and then consuming the excess clothing. When she looked down again, Xiangyi realized she was wearing a complete ancient-style outfit.
