Raiden Mei precisely grasped the key point: Jiang Cheng wouldn't take the initiative, but when he was passive, he wouldn't be too annoying either, and she manipulated him little by little.
The entire day of the date was planned with this in mind.
Even if Jiang Cheng doesn't apologize, he'll eventually find a way to go on a date.
Now that preparations are complete, all steps have come to an end.
The next thing to do... Cover (one) 8 Ba Lingqi (six) Ying
"Lord Cheng, you should know, right?"
“I’ve wanted to do something like this for a long, long time. I should be a passive person, but it’s all your fault for not being proactive at all.”
"You always talk about being conservative and gentle, but hey, but hey, I'm a Herrscher! No matter how rough you are, Jiang Cheng, you can't hurt me!"
……

……
The lights were silently switched off, plunging the luxurious room into darkness once more.
Only the last flicker of candlelight divided the light and shadow, allowing the remaining moonlight from outside the window, its flawless silver light, to serve as a backdrop.
Each strand of hair exudes an ethereal, dreamlike quality, pure yet distant, as if it would vanish like a mirage if one were to reach out.
It felt as if the entire starry sky was before me, and even the brilliance of the stars and moon seemed to sweep in from outside the window, displaying that breathtaking beauty without reservation. The moonlight where the sky and earth met was like a stream floating with bubbles, and every second that flashed and exploded was the starlight reflected in the silvery moonlight.
The waves shattered the shape of light, scattering silver specks that were tinged with a faint, ethereal blue.
It's so ethereal that just looking at it makes you feel cold.
The cold of the distance.
Eternal cold.
It was as if a wind was blowing, carrying a low hum that seemed to travel through time and space, floating and swaying uncertainly, giving one goosebumps.
The consciousness that was once again drawn back felt like a dream, and everything in sight was as beautiful as a fairy tale.
So beautiful.
It feels like a dream.
But this is definitely not a dream.
—The fine threads clinging to the face are not fake.
The purple hue plucked from lightning that tears through gloomy clouds is a sediment that even darkness cannot conceal.
He yielded to that innocent yet sweet kiss.
A joyful and expectant heartbeat.
He gently stroked his face.
Those beautiful, purplish-red, diamond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, filled with a smile, curving downwards like crescent moons.
"Don't reject me this time."
"May I?"
“My dearest Cheng Jun.”
……
Despite remaining indifferent and appearing clownish, there was a sense that Mei was forcing her to act.
But Jiang Cheng knew that if he refused at this point, he would truly look like a clown.
Ultimately, there's no going back. He's already rejected Mei's confession so many times. If he were to deny what should happen after they've become lovers... if he really did that, even he would probably start to doubt his own health.
There's no point in persisting now. Even the girl herself is acting on her own initiative, so there's no need to worry about the consequences. Just the burning gaze she's currently looking into is enough to convince her that Raiden Mei will never regret what she did today.
No matter how much I fear taking on responsibility, how much I worry about the future, or how much I overthink... I've had enough by now.
If you have any worries, feel free to leave them for last. After all, you've been busy for so long, it's time to indulge yourself once in a while.
The only thing to worry about is that when you arrive at the room, you'll also be carrying the Jizo-soul.
There should be no problem?
Ling wouldn't actually enjoy watching this kind of show.
……
……
【snort……】
[I love Rin the most... Pshaw!]
Her eerie, cherry-colored eyes took in everything.
—Although Jiang Cheng seems to have never said that.
……
The following night was very long. After the girl took the initiative to pounce on him, Jiang Cheng, no matter how clueless he was about romance, could no longer refuse.
What happened in between was something that couldn't be written about or described, because I had already suffered a lot, so it was something that absolutely couldn't be shown.
Overall, it's perfect and very smooth.
An ordinary boy and a strong-willed girl.
She only wanted to use the most ordinary and normal approach, but instead, Mei, who was the one who took on the responsibility, kept trying new things.
I want to take away all of Jiangcheng's firsts—that's the excuse the girl used.
When Jiang Cheng dragged his sluggish and drowsy body, forcibly suppressing the urge to lie down from endless exhaustion, and opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was the midday sun seeping through the curtains, its excessively dazzling and brilliant light almost blinding.
Using the back of his hand to shield his eyes from the light, while simultaneously processing everything that had happened yesterday, Jiang Cheng immediately turned his head—the beautiful girl who was fast asleep was still there.
Ahhh...
It's still there...
It really is true!
All the haze of last night vanished in an instant, as if shattered violently, like raindrops falling on a phone screen. Memories came back to life, every gesture and experience so vivid.
Her smooth, delicate back was framed by a cascade of vibrant purple hair, and her exquisite, adorable shoulder blades trembled shyly like real butterflies. Her rounded, full, fair arms were also visible, outlining two curves that were clearly visible even from behind.
Looking further down into the indescribable area, the ten crystal-clear toes resembled lotus seeds clustered together, occasionally twitching habitually, as if still savoring the sensation that had previously made those rounded fingers clench tightly together.
As for her beautiful face at this moment—that sleeping posture that would make anyone feel the warmth and tranquility of a wife and children on a cozy bed, her once wide-open lips are now pursed, and her bright, thunderous eyes are now quietly closed.
She possessed neither the aloofness of a school beauty nor the excessive coercion and initiative of a yandere; at this moment, she was simply a gentle young girl.
Even so, her long, trembling eyelashes still shone in the sunlight, making her look incredibly adorable.
It was truly a dreamlike day.
I simply can't imagine it.
Don't dare...
It was even more dreamlike than when Mei confessed to me.
"It's still hard to imagine. Just a short time ago, I was desperately trying to survive."
"Such a terrible world, such a disgusting world, but in the end... it seems this world isn't so bad after all."
He stared at the right hand, which was made of soul steel.
My right hand, which I have now lost.
Jiang Cheng's fingertips gently stroked her long, smooth purple hair, then her delicate, snow-white back. Her body, which had been unconscious, seemed to sense the touch and was awakened by some instincts. Her shoulders swayed, but this only added a bit of fun to the downward movement of his fingertips.
The fair skin still felt warm to the touch, and the natural body temperature combined with the previous exercise made it feel even hotter than an average person's at first glance.
The body of a Herrscher is so supple... so perfect that you can't find the slightest flaw. Sliding down the back to the next undulation feels comfortable to the touch.
However—it still can't last long.
This intimate little interaction was quickly reversed.
It wasn't because I was tired of her—there was absolutely no feeling of cloying in my interactions with Mei, never, ever, ever. It was simply because I saw the Jizo Mitama lying flat on the table in my line of sight.
It was faintly glowing red at that moment.
It's glaring and infuriating.
what is this?
Reaching out from the side, Jiang Cheng pulled out a pair of shorts, tucked them into the blanket, adjusted himself slightly, got out of bed, and walked towards the table.
……
For some reason, there was no explanation in this body, but seeing this scene, Rin had an inexplicable urge to stop it—to immediately project her body, pretend to be a ghost and scream, or cause some kind of disaster. In short, any method would do, she had to stop their actions and divert Healthy's attention.
I absolutely cannot accept Jiang Cheng and Mei sleeping together.
This fact is utterly intolerable.
Especially now, Jiang Cheng's words still keep echoing in my mind—I am going to save LINH, and no one can stop me.
His voice remained clear and persistent, as if he were still standing before me, making an unquestionable declaration.
However, in the blink of an eye, with his eyes closed, the girl he was surrounded by had become someone else entirely.
What I had heard before seemed like a dream.
Like a fantasy.
But this is by no means a fantasy.
Because of the young man's demeanor at this moment, the heartbeat that could be felt beneath his seemingly completely sugar-coated exterior, and the unchanging character he possessed, all proved that Jiang Cheng was a scholar/prince who would never break his promise and would remain faithful to his word.
At least for this moment, as the blade gleams, the boy still gently touches it, signifying that the promise made in the past still stands.
"Well……"
"How strange..."
Her purplish-red pupils, still slightly glazed, were slightly narrowed upon waking.
He took in the whole scene.
It's like watching other children get their heads patted, and then pouting and puffing out your cheeks, angrily trying to assert your presence and wanting to be patted on the head too.
This behavior is so childish! And why does it seem like they're vying for attention just by looking at a knife? Isn't that a bit too strange?
……
Chapter 88 Miss Yae's Great Failure
Carrying the knife, he returned to bed once more.
My body is well-rested, but my spirit is not.
Unable to transcend the Heavenly Root, they are ultimately still within the limits of humanity, possessing a non-human body but still a human spirit.
I casually drew back the curtains, and the golden sunlight streamed into the room without reservation, bathing everything in a radiant glow.
Looking at Yu Chenxi’s white body, which resembled rolling waves in the morning light, and recalling yesterday’s madness, she also realized the weight she would have to bear next.
really...
They're even more anxious than me...
From now on, I won't be living alone anymore.
"Hoo... Sigh..."
It was a life I had never experienced before.
I laid the blade flat on the bedside table to my right—the sensation of being touched by someone else came through my uninjured left arm once again, like being climbed.
"what happened?"
Raiden Mei, who was gripping Jiang Cheng's shoulder, looked up at him with a questioning look in her watery eyes.
The thin silk quilt slipped down from her waist, and she slowly got up, nuzzling Jiang Cheng's cheek like a kitten.
This unintentional flirtatious gesture almost made Jiang Cheng lose control again. If it had happened yesterday, the girl would have immediately grabbed the bedsheet and bent her neck backward like a dying swan—unfortunately, there wasn't that much time to waste a few more hours now.
