The sun shone brightly, and the woods were quiet.
Birds chirped and insects chirred from time to time.
Beneath the trees,
stood a small courtyard.
Jiang Ling lay in a recliner and stretched.
"Bulma, come over and rub my shoulders."
Nearby, Bulma wore a cool, lightweight set of loungewear, with sheer fabric draped over her.
Her fair skin was just visible beneath it. The scant fabric barely contained her ample chest, while a cute triangular patch covered her most private area. The contours it traced made a person want to explore.
At Jiang Ling's words, Bulma rolled her eyes.
"Go away! Don't bother me while I'm watching Zhen Huan."
She held her phone and munched on snacks, engrossed in the TV drama.
Jiang Ling stood up and stretched.
The corners of his mouth curled upward.
He leaned close to Bulma's ear.
His hot breath brushed against her earlobe.
"How about we work from sunset to sunrise?"
Bulma pushed him away, her eyes still on Zhen Huan on the phone screen.
"Oh, I'm watching my show. Don't start."
"That won't get in the way. You watch yours, and I'll do my thing."
"???"
Bulma was instantly confused.
Could he really do that?
Before she could react, Jiang Ling came up behind her and began running his hands over her.
Bulma couldn't resist him and could only let him have his way.
Gradually, her face flushed.
Even her soft little gasps turned seductive.
Then,
Jiang Ling got straight to the point.
Bulma let out a startled cry.
The two began exploring the origins of life, the nature of humanity, and whether the chicken or the egg came first...
An hour later...
In her daze, Bulma felt her whole body grow light, as if she were flying and drifting into the clouds.
Jiang Ling kissed Bulma, then went to the side to drink tea, not wanting to move a muscle...
He collapsed nearby, not wanting to move a muscle...
Bulma shot him a look, then rose, displaying her alluring figure as she headed for the bathroom.
She was still grumbling.
"Such a blockhead!"
"Can't you say something sweet afterward?"
Jiang Ling thought it over and realized he had indeed been inconsiderate.
So he smiled and said, "Bulma, rub my shoulders."
"??? No! I don't have time!"
"Looks like you won't take no for an answer. Then I'll have to be forceful!"
"Huh? Damn it! Why are you starting again?"
Jiang Ling chuckled. "That's what they mean by 'spare the rod and spoil the wife.'"
He looked at Bulma and continued with a grin, "You know what to do now, right?"
"..."
"Honestly, you're impossible."
Bulma said that, but her body was growing warm, and her legs pressed together a little tighter.
All day long,
Bulma didn't wear a stitch of clothing.
That night, Jiang Ling held her ample curves as they fell asleep in each other's arms.
Out in the wilderness, a campfire burned.
Android 16, Android 17, and 18 sat on a rock, eating freshly roasted dinosaur meat they had hunted that day. It was delicious.
To be precise, Android 17 and 18 were eating, since Android 16 was a fully mechanical robot...
"What should we do next?"
As 18 ate the roasted meat, a hint of confusion suddenly appeared in her beautiful eyes.
Since they couldn't beat Jiang Ling, they had kept their agreement and hadn't gone after Goku.
Her younger brother, Android 17, pursed his lips. "Tomorrow, I'll go beat Jiang Ling. Just because you can't beat him doesn't mean I can't. After all, I'm the strongest!"
As he spoke, a strangely confident look spread across his face.
Android 16 interjected, "Based on the energy readings, Android 17, you can't beat Jiang Ling."
"How do you know?"
"Because I have a radar inside me that can measure energy levels."
"Oh, then it might be broken,"
Android 17 said dismissively.
"Maybe we shouldn't go looking for a fight," 18 urged.
She didn't believe Android 16's radar was right, either. She thought her younger brother was the strongest.
For some reason, she didn't want Jiang Ling to get hurt.
Android 17 glanced at her, his expression teasing. "Oh? 18, you've been acting strange ever since you fought Jiang Ling. Are you in love with him?"
"Don't be ridiculous!" 18 glared at him with her beautiful eyes. "Why would I like him?"
A young woman would always deny it right away when she heard something like that.
"You still won't admit it." Android 17 spread his hands.
"Forget it. Tomorrow, I'll bring Jiang Ling here and keep him by your side, working like an ox and a horse for you."
"?"
18 shifted slightly. "Well... I suppose that wouldn't be so bad."
Android 16 drank gasoline nearby and spread his hands. "I can't make sense of you humans and your feelings..."
The next day,
Jiang Ling got up right on time.
He sat on the bed, one hand braced against his lower back.
He looked at Bulma beside him, the sheets revealing a generous expanse of her skin.
He sighed.
"You little vixen."
He shook his head, went into the bathroom, and washed up.
Then, in the living room,
he took goji berries, dried longan meat, and the like out of the System Space.
He boiled them in water to drink...
Young as I am, I'll start taking care of my health now.
He sat in the courtyard, enjoying the cool breeze and sipping the tonic he had prepared.
Life was good.
A little while later,
Jiang Ling's eyes narrowed as he looked into the distance.
Three figures flew toward him from afar.
They landed in front of him.
Android 16, Android 17, and 18!
Android 16 had a tall, imposing build.
Android 17 was tall and slender.
18 had an alluring, shapely figure.
Jiang Ling said calmly, "What brings you here?"
Android 17 sneered. "I'm here to beat you, then drag you back to be my sister's man!"
Jiang Ling looked at 18 in confusion.
18 lowered her head slightly, her cheeks red, and didn't deny it.
She felt that she really did like him.
If she liked him, she should be bold about it.
Just then,
a woman's voice rang out from inside the house.
"Who's trying to steal my husband?"
Bulma came out of the room.
She wore a qipao, her blue hair falling over her shoulders, her figure full and curvaceous.
Her delicate face was fierce with anger.
She was like a tiger whose territory had been invaded!
18's eyes widened.
She hadn't expected that the man she liked already had a woman!
But she wasn't giving up. Love was something you had to fight for!
"What are you to him? Are you married?" 18 demanded.
She couldn't let herself be intimidated!
"I'm Jiang Ling's girlfriend! So what if we aren't married yet?" Bulma said loudly, hands on her hips.
Hearing this, 18 smiled happily.
"Even if there's no law forcing people to be monogamous, you two still aren't married. That means anything is possible!"
"You shameless woman! You think you can steal my man?"
"I'll steal him! So what? I like him, so why shouldn't I try to win him over?"
"..."
Seeing that the two sides were about to fight,
Jiang Ling and Android 17 both felt a headache coming on.
Meanwhile, wisps of green smoke began to drift above Android 16's pineapple head..
