Xiao Ruawen and Xia Xiaoxiao lay on the same bed, chatting while looking at the ceiling.
"Xiaoxiao, why did you just now ask Wanning that question?" Xiao Ruawen asked.
"Just curious," Xia Xiaoxiao answered.
"Just curious? I thought you discovered something." She turned over and looked at Xia Xiaoxiao's profile as she spoke.
"What do you think?" Xia Xiaoxiao retorted.
Xiao Ruawen was completely confused.
"Ruawen, do you think that bad guy might have already done something with Wanning? Didn't she used to crawl into his bed?" Thinking about the bed-crawling incident, Xia Xiaoxiao started to feel jealous again.
Before, she was just a childhood sweetheart, so she couldn't control him.
But now that the stinky dog had gone up to the rooftop with her, he was hers and she had a reason to control him!
Xiao Ruawen felt inexplicably guilty and remembered the time Brother Fan almost kissed her. She silently turned her body back.
"He even dared to kiss my Brother Fan, even after knowing about the rooftop. Who knows what he's done with Wanning!" she thought to herself.
No wonder Xiao Ruawen thought this way; the dog-man really behaved badly.
"Ruawen?" Seeing her good friend stay silent, Xia Xiaoxiao called out in confusion.
"Ah... haha... I think... I think not. They were young back then. You see, after starting high school, Wanning didn't crawl into Brother Fan's bed anymore." Xiao Ruawen tried to justify herself to hide her guilt.
But her words had some truth, so Xia Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.
"She wasn't that young; she crawled into his bed in eighth grade!" The proud girl was still jealous.
"Oh, come on~ Wanning is just like that, like a little sister who never grows up." Xiao Ruawen continued to defend Lin Wanning.
Not knowing if Xia Xiaoxiao accepted her explanation, she stayed silent.
Xiao Ruawen slapped her forehead, remembering that she wasn't here to gossip but to clarify her pure relationship with Brother Fan—absolutely pure!
"By the way, Xiaoxiao, have you made any progress with Brother Fan lately?" She casually asked.
After all, if she had started with: "Xiaoxiao, you have to trust me, nothing happened between me and Brother Fan!" it would sound suspicious.
"Huh?" This time, Xia Xiaoxiao was stunned, reminiscing about her interactions with Xu Qingfan over the past few weeks.
"Yes... kind of." Thinking about last week's hair-drying incident, her cheeks flushed with a rosy hue.
Xiao Ruawen transformed into a gossip enthusiast, her eyes sparkling.
"Oh... it's nothing." Xia Xiaoxiao hesitated, unsure if she should say it.
After all, she had previously portrayed herself as the passive, forced, and victimized character, with all bad things being Xu Qingfan's fault. She, Xia Xiaoxiao, was helplessly compelled to do those shameful things!
In short: Xu Qingfan did all the bad things, Xia Xiaoxiao sacrificed herself for him!
But last week's incident was an active nighttime attack on Xu Qingfan, contradicting her previously established character in front of Xiao Ruawen. It was hard to explain.
"So, what happened after all?"
"Xiaoxiao, tell me quickly!"
Waiting for a long time without a follow-up from Xia Xiaoxiao, Xiao Ruawen was getting impatient.
"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao!"
Xia Xiaoxiao hesitated repeatedly but couldn't withstand Xiao Ruawen's persistent urging and finally blurted out two words: "Bed... on the bed, we..."
"Wh-wh-what?!" Xiao Ruawen lost all composure, for some reason feeling particularly agitated.
"Keep your voice down!" Xia Xiaoxiao quickly covered her mouth. Although the room had good soundproofing, it couldn't handle such a loud exclamation!
"Mmmph~" Xiao Ruawen's eyes widened as Xia Xiaoxiao covered her mouth with her hand.
"It's not what you think, listen to me first." Xia Xiaoxiao softened her tone, slowly releasing her hand from Ruawen's mouth.
Xiao Ruawen nodded, signaling she was listening.
"Things happened ..." Xia Xiaoxiao initially wanted to fabricate a story to beautify her role, but she couldn't come up with a new story on the spot.
"Then I thought I'd teach him a lesson after Yu falls asleep, but... but that bad guy pulled me onto the bed!"
"Uh..." Hearing the whole story, imaginary grass-eating horses galloped across Xiao Ruawen's mind.
"Brother Fan is really something. Not afraid of getting caught by Yu, dares to mess around , huh!" she thought.
"And Xiaoxiao, 'going to teach him a lesson after Yu falls asleep,' sure you're not just giving in?"
Xia Xiaoxiao continued, "Then nothing happened like you're thinking!"
"It's just... just a step further than the time on the rooftop." She recalled lying naked on Xu Qingfan, feeling shy again.
Xiao Ruawen, lacking hands-on experience and any instructional videos, couldn't comprehend what Xia Xiaoxiao meant by "a step further."
"Did you use that?" She nudged Xia Xiaoxiao's foot, inquiring.
Xia Xiaoxiao blushed deeply, "No... not yet."
"Then why did you say a step further?"
"Ah~ What are you doing!" Xia Xiaoxiao blocked Xiao Ruawen's mischievous hand, annoyed and embarrassed.
"Haha... Xiaoxiao, not there... ah!" Quickly, Xia Xiaoxiao retaliated, hitting her until she lost her bearings.
Xia Xiaoxiao withdrew her hand enviously, soft like white dumplings, the touch felt really good.
"Hmph~ If you mess around again, I'll tell Xu Qingfan your secret!"
