Chapter 86

“Why haven’t you slept with me until now?”

Qu Panyan, under the influence of alcohol, raised a soul-searching question; one that caught Su Lingyu off guard and speechless. As sharp as she was, she couldn’t immediately respond, and asked in confusion, “What?”

Sleep with her?

What does she mean?

Qu Panyan’s face turned as pink as peach blossoms. She straightened her back, put on a serious expression, and asked again, “Comrade Xiao Su, why haven’t you slept with me until now!”

Qu Panyan’s rationality had been easily overwhelmed by those three cups of wine. Now, she looked at Su Lingyu with a dazed expression. Her slender, onion-like fingers lightly poked at Su Lingyu’s lips as she asked, word by word, “Comrade Xiao Su, you tell me, is it… is it because your ideological consciousness is not high?”

Qu Panyan’s rationality had been easily shattered by those three cups of wine. Now, she looked at Su Lingyu with a dazed expression. Her slender, onion-like fingers lightly poked at Su Lingyu’s lips as she said word by word, “Comrade Xiao Su, you tell me, are you or are you not lacking in ideological consciousness?”

If only her ideological consciousness were a bit higher, and she could grasp things a bit faster, they would have achieved great harmony in their relationship a long time ago!

“Let me tell you, Comrade Xiao Su, this, this is something you must reflect on!” After Qu Panyan finished speaking, her body swayed, and Su Lingyu immediately scooped her back into her arms. Qu Panyan leaned her head against Su Lingyu’s shoulder, finally finding some support.

After resting against Su Lingyu’s shoulder for a moment to ease the effects of the alcohol, Qu Panyan struggled to sit up, placing her hands on the table. Her body kept swaying from side to side, and when Su Lingyu tried to support her, she was reluctant, insisting on standing by herself. She pointed to the empty space next to Su Lingyu and sternly commanded, “Don’t move, sit down!”

Su Lingyu looked at her issuing orders to the empty space and furrowed her brows slightly. Helplessly, she called out, “Yan’er, I’m right here.” You’re pointing at empty space.

But Qu Panyan still didn’t listen, or rather, she seemed completely unaware. She continued to point at the empty space with a silly look on her face, seeing multiple overlapping figures in front of her, and said, “Sit down! Today, I will definitely elevate your ideological consciousness!”

Su Lingyu maintained the position of protecting her but sat down, reluctantly cooperating. However, she didn’t let go of her waist and kept her hands hovering around to prevent any accidents.

Seeing Comrade Xiao Su swaying in front of her finally sitting down, Qu Panyan smiled in satisfaction. Then, she furrowed her brows again and muttered, “Why… Why are you swaying like this…”

She then shook her hand nonchalantly and said, “Never mind, forget it!”

Afterward, she inexplicably picked up a cup from her side, squinted her eyes, carefully examined it for a while, and suddenly threw it backward. With a coquettish tone, she hummed, “Go away, don’t interrupt me…”

Su Lingyu: “…”

Quick on her feet, Su Lingyu made a subtle gesture, and a sheet of ice swiftly rose from the ground, catching the cup steadily. Then she placed it farther away, and the ice dissipated.

“Comrade Xiao Su!” Qu Panyan called out, finally looking at… the empty space beside her, her drunken eyes unfocused, and she said earnestly, “You! Why won’t you sleep with me? Please give me a reasonable explanation…”

Suddenly, Su Lingyu found Qu Panyan’s tipsy attempt at educating someone to be adorable and amusing. She couldn’t help but lift the corners of her lips, smiling gently and radiantly.

But as soon as Qu Panyan saw her smile, she became even more serious, her lips pouted, and she said in a coquettish manner, “Comrade Xiao Su, don’t laugh!”

Every time Su Lingyu smiled, she wanted to kiss her.

Isn’t this disturbing someone while they’re talking?

This comrade’s ideological consciousness was really lacking, a bit mischievous!

“Well, I won’t laugh,” Su Lingyu restrained her laughter and sincerely asked, “Yan’er, what do you mean by ‘sleep with me’?”

Qu Panyan lowered her eyes and looked at her. “You don’t know?”

Su Lingyu nodded.

Qu Panyan blinked a few times and then said, “It means… it’s the process of making babies!”

Su Lingyu instantly understood something and couldn’t help but correct her with a smile, “Yan’er, two women can’t have children.”

Qu Panyan paused for a moment and said, “You’re right…”

Two women indeed couldn’t have children…

So, what to do then?

Qu Panyan patted her own head, suddenly looked up, and frowned playfully, “But having a child isn’t the main point!”

Su Lingyu smiled slightly and replied, “Hmm.”

Qu Panyan didn’t elaborate further, swaying her head lazily. Suddenly, she turned around, stumbling towards the door.

Seeing this, Su Lingyu immediately got up and caught her by the arms, pulling her back, “What do you want to do, Yan’er?”

Qu Panyan suddenly shouted loudly, “I want to go to the roof!”

Su Lingyu asked, “What for?”

Qu Panyan replied, “To remove the roof tiles! I’m going to lift all of them!”

Su Lingyu: “…” When someone is drunk, do they really want to mess with the roof?

Qu Panyan’s expression suddenly became mischievous, and she spoke domineeringly, “Woman, I want you to know that this whole roof is under my contract as Long Aotian!”

Su Lingyu: “…” What nonsense is she talking about?

In her intoxicated state, Qu Panyan’s thoughts changed rapidly. The next moment, she didn’t want to remove the roof tiles anymore. She turned around and buried herself in Su Lingyu’s arms, taking a deep breath of her fragrance, then asked, “Hey, comrade, why do you smell like my celestial sister?”

Su Lingyu chuckled and asked, “Celestial sister?”

Qu Panyan really thought of herself as a celestial being?

Qu Panyan, like a soft little cat, kept rubbing her head against Su Lingyu’s neck, unconsciously acting coquettishly, “Yes, celestial sister, the Sect Master of the Xianmeng Sect, Su Lingyu. Haven’t you heard of her?”

Then she started talking to herself, praising Su Lingyu endlessly. In her heart, the sky was as high and the earth as wide as how wonderful her celestial sister Su Lingyu was!

The actual Su Lingyu patiently listened, the smile on her lips deepening. Seeing that Qu Panyan seemed to be settling down slowly, probably getting over her drunken frenzy and preparing to sleep, she laid her horizontally and put her back on the bed.

But as soon as she let go, Qu Panyan sprang up again, suddenly hooking her neck, bringing the two of them so close that they could clearly feel each other’s breath.

Su Lingyu gazed at her silently. Her skin was as smooth as porcelain, with a hint of rosy blush on her cheeks. Her eyes were veiled with mist, and she exhaled a shallow scent of alcohol from her slightly parted lips. She looked both tender and enchanting.

Su Lingyu’s heart was gently tugged.

Qu Panyan whispered, “But even such a perfect celestial sister has… has some flaws, do you know what they are?”

Curious, Su Lingyu asked, “Hmm? What flaws does she have?”

No one is perfect, everyone has their flaws.

Su Lingyu admitted she wasn’t perfect either. If someone pointed out her flaws within a reasonable range, she would be willing to correct them. And if that person was Qu Panyan, she would definitely make the effort to become even more likable in her eyes. She couldn’t imagine a life without her.

Then she heard Qu Panyan say, “Not sleeping with me!”

Su Lingyu was stunned.

This was considered a flaw?

Qu Panyan seemed to touch on a sore spot, and her eyes welled up with tears, “Am I not attractive enough? Is my figure not good enough? Why won’t this celestial sister touch me?”

Su Lingyu gently touched the corner of her eye and calmly explained, “Because she doesn’t know how.”

Yes, she doesn’t know, and she doesn’t understand.

She only knows that male and female unions can produce offspring, but as for how that union happens, she has never explored or shown the slightest interest in it—at least not before.

She was clueless about this aspect, and her strength and aloofness kept everyone from speaking of such matters in her presence. No one dared to give her a clue or an opportunity to venture into this realm, to open the door to this new world.

So she doesn’t understand, and she doesn’t know how.

Now, Qu Panyan has brought it up, expressing her desire clearly. It’s this desire that has ignited Su Lingyu’s curiosity about this realm—how exactly does this “sleeping” work, and what are the methods of union?

But how can she explore this? Where does she go to learn? How does she learn? And how can she satisfy Qu Panyan’s desire?

After hearing this, Qu Panyan waved her hand grandly and said boldly, “Hey, it’s a small matter!”

She let go of Su Lingyu’s neck and turned to find her Qianbao pouch. Then, like a child, she rummaged around inside for a while before suddenly pulling out several books.

Su Lingyu’s gaze fell on these books, and the covers were marked with titles like 《Double Flowers Chronicle》 and 《Reflections on Spring Water》.

Qu Panyan pushed all these books in front of her feet, and confidently said, “Take them all, give them to the celestial sister! Tell her to read them carefully and learn every word!”

Qu Panyan patted her chest vigorously, making a few deep thumping sounds, and vowed, “I promise you, I promise! She’ll definitely understand after reading them! Definitely!”

“Because my sister is super smart…” Her voice gradually weakened, her eyelids starting to droop, but she stubbornly added, “I love her so much!”

Then she slumped backwards softly, closed her eyes, and fell asleep immediately.

Su Lingyu heard her breathing steady and calm, her eyebrows, like two willow leaves, relaxed. She slept peacefully and gently, unaffected by the celestial fire.

Indeed, getting drunk could help her sleep better.

Su Lingyu’s gaze softened gradually. She gently leaned down and planted a kiss on Qu Panyan’s forehead, whispering, “I love you too.”

As high as the heavens, as deep as the sea, no one could compare.

After settling her down, Su Lingyu sat by the table with the books Qu Panyan had given her, ready to observe and study them carefully.

Since Qu Panyan said that she would understand after reading them, then she would read them. She was determined to learn every word, just as Qu Panyan wished.

With this in mind, Su Lingyu slowly opened the book 《Reflections on Spring Water》. Scanning through the pages, she randomly flipped to the back and suddenly fell into complete silence.

In 《Reflections on Spring Water》 there were very few words, but numerous illustrations filled every page. Each image was different, depicting various postures and gestures of the characters. They sat or stood, capturing a wide array of scenes.

The only commonality was that all the images depicted two women, who met in a very “frank” manner.

Su Lingyu slowly closed the book, supporting her forehead and calming herself for a moment.

This was the first time she had come across… such books.

At three in the morning, Su Lingyu stood alone by the window, gazing at the moon. The cold moonlight gently cascaded down, reflecting her serene and beautiful face with clarity.

She had read most of the books.

She always read quickly and remembered well, and now her mind was filled with those boundless scenes of spring, which seemed very disharmonious with her calm appearance.

She looked at the person lying on the bed and forcefully swept away the gorgeous images from her mind, her gaze remaining serene.

She couldn’t help but wonder: is this what Yan’er wanted… all these things?

It turned out that hands were not only meant for holding swords and casting spells, but also…

The person on the bed suddenly moved, groaning uncomfortably in her throat. Then she sat up, continuously touching her neck.

Su Lingyu, seeing this, closed the window and walked to the bedside, embracing her as she asked, “What’s wrong, Yan’er?”

Qu Panyan mumbled in a daze, “I’m so thirsty…”

Su Lingyu gently touched her head and said in a soothing voice, “Stay seated, Yan’er. I’ll get you some water.”

Qu Panyan nodded dazedly and sat obediently, waiting for Su Lingyu to return. However, the dryness in her throat made her feel uncomfortable, and she couldn’t help raising her hand to scratch her neck weakly.

Little did she know that her seemingly casual action was quite alluring in the eyes of others.

When Su Lingyu came back with the glass, she saw Qu Panyan sitting on the bed with a bewitching and hazy look. The open collar of her pure white attire revealed a fair expanse of skin. Her slender fingers gently caressed her long and delicate neck, exuding an indescribable charm.

Su Lingyu paused. Evil thoughts resurfaced at this moment, arrogantly clamoring in her mind.

With a faintly raised eyebrow, Qu Panyan’s black and white eyes reflected Su Lingyu’s appearance—along with the glass of water in her hand.

She curved her lips and smiled coquettishly, her voice slightly intoxicated as she extended her hand, playfully saying, “Give it to me…”

She was still not sober.

Su Lingyu thought this way and slowly approached her with the glass, asking in a soft voice, “Yan’er, do you want Sister Lingyu to feed you water?”

The familiar, lazy voice with a hint of huskiness floated lightly into Qu Panyan’s ears. Somehow, it was alluring, and she was captivated by it. Under the spell, she nodded happily and said in a sweet voice, “Okay…”

Su Lingyu smiled, a hint of triumph in her smile.

She lifted the glass of water but didn’t bring it to Yan’er’s lips. Instead, she brought it to her own lips and drank from it, tilting her head back.

Seeing the water being consumed by Su Lingyu, Qu Panyan felt both pitiful and a little unhappy. She pouted and complained, “That’s my water…”

Then her lips were sealed by a soft touch.
