Chapter 33 – Full of Yuri Vibes
What infuriated Lin Xi the most was that this bastard, Shi Yu, was actually making herself right at home!
She wanted to argue with Shi Yu, but the other girl just sauntered into the bathroom without a second glance.
Dammit!
Lin Xi gripped her rag and slammed it onto the table.
“She eats her fill, drinks her fill, washes up, and goes to sleep, while all the dirty, exhausting work falls to me.”
“Am I really just an indentured servant now?!”
“Serving the young miss Shi Yu hand and foot… I’ve had enough!”
“If I can’t stand up to her, I’ll just hide.”
Lin Xi decided that she would go beg Lu Yi another day, pleading with her to take her in.
“If I get down on my knees for Lu Yi, she’ll definitely agree to my request, right?”
As long as she could get away from this plague known as Shi Yu, her dignity didn’t matter.
After finishing the household chores and taking a comfortable shower, Lin Xi opened her bedroom door and was genuinely startled.
Shi Yu was lying on the bed with her feet kicked up, engrossed in reading the manga that Lin Xi had hidden away.
“Holy crap!”
“Shi Yu, don’t tell me… you’re into that sort of thing?!”
“No way, I have to pack my things and run tonight, or my virtue is at stake!”
Lin Xi acted immediately, pulling out the suitcase that was leaned against the wall.
“Are you sick in the head?” Shi Yu snatched up a manga and threw it at Lin Xi. “Even if I were into that sort of thing, I wouldn’t pick you!”
Lin Xi: “…”
“Wait, so you really are into that sort of thing?!”
Shi Yu gave a faint smile. “What do you think?”
Lin Xi was noncommittal. “Who can ever figure out the mindset of a pervert?”
“Do you have a death wish?” Shi Yu pulled a handgun from under the pillow. “Believe it or not, I can blow your head open before you even activate your witch powers.”
Lin Xi: “…”
She put the suitcase back in its place and silently turned around.
“Stay right there.” Shi Yu put the gun away and picked up the manga again.
Lin Xi didn’t bother looking back. “I’m going to the guest room. Isn’t it better if I don’t disturb you?”
“You have to stay here too,” Shi Yu said. “In a couple of days, once the cockroaches are all exterminated, you won’t even be qualified to enter my bedroom anymore.”
“Your bedroom???” Lin Xi asked. “Do you want me to just give you the whole house while I’m at it?”
“Sure.”
“Sure your ass!”
Since Shi Yu was deathly afraid of cockroaches, Lin Xi was forced to stay and keep her company.
“I guess I’ll read a manga too…” Lin Xi hadn’t actually looked at the Cuddle Witch’s “collection” yet, mainly because she wasn’t interested in this kind of manga.
Besides, with Shi Yu in her house, it hadn’t been convenient to take them out.
But now that the “collection” had been unearthed, there was no reason to hold back.
Lin Xi picked up a volume and flipped through a few pages, only to see images that made her face flush and her blood race.
The Cuddle Witch was a true pervert; her “collection” was incredibly lewd!
Shi Yu suddenly turned her head and looked at Lin Xi.
“I can hear your heavy breathing. No way, are you getting turned on just by reading a manga?”
“Who the hell is getting turned on?” Lin Xi hid half her face behind the manga. “Do you think everyone is like you, reading this stuff without their heart skipping a beat?”
“Just this level?” Shi Yu said disdainfully. “The things I draw are way more erotic than these manga.”
Lin Xi was stunned. “You’re actually proud of that?!”
“Of course,” Shi Yu declared her grand ambition. “I’m striving to become the rising star of the doujinshi artist world!”
Shi Yu was reading these manga for the purpose of studying.
Lin Xi couldn’t understand it, nor did she want to.
Shi Yu was a pervert, a fierce bandit, a slave driver, a psycho… in short, in Lin Xi’s eyes, Shi Yu had become an eldritch monster like Cthulhu-indescribable and incomprehensible.
Lin Xi planned to finish the remaining half and go to sleep, but unexpectedly, the more she read, the more hooked she became!
The yuri manga she was currently reading had a total of eight volumes.
After finishing the second volume, Lin Xi swore she would read just one more and then absolutely go to sleep.
Closing the third volume, Lin Xi uncontrollably reached her hand out toward the fourth.
Dammit!
How could I be interested in this kind of manga?!
But… I really want to know how the plot develops in the next volume!
Lin Xi finally yielded to her desires and picked up the fourth volume.
Before flipping it open, she stole a glance at Shi Yu.
During the hours she had been immersed in the manga, Shi Yu hadn’t made a sound. Sure enough, Shi Yu was also reading a series; a stack of finished books already sat to her left.
Ah, this… Lin Xi suddenly realized a serious problem.
Two girls in a bedroom, on the same bed, both reading yuri manga with such gusto…
No matter how you looked at it, the room was overflowing with yuri vibes!
“Hey, Perverted Witch, are you getting all worked up again for no reason?” Shi Yu was extremely sensitive to Lin Xi’s movements.
“I am not!” Lin Xi turned away. “Even if I were, it wouldn’t be over you!”
Silence returned to the bedroom, save for the sound of pages turning.
Page after page, volume after volume.
Before she knew it, Lin Xi had finished eight volumes.
I actually finished the whole series?!
I’m hooked… Lin Xi had to admit she was obsessed.
Time to sleep!
Lin Xi glanced at the clock on the nightstand. “Holy crap, it’s seven in the morning?!”
She rolled out of bed and pulled back the curtains; the night had long since given way to the light of day.
Lin Xi was a bit dazed. She had spent the entire night binge-reading yuri manga?!
Looking at Shi Yu, the other girl also climbed out of bed and stretched.
“I got a bit carried away. Fortunately, today is Sunday.”
“I’m so hungry…”
“Perverted Witch, go make me some breakfast.”
Lin Xi closed the curtains and flopped back onto the bed. “You’re right, it’s Sunday. There’s no problem treating the day like the night.”
“If you’re hungry, get out and buy something. I’m exhausted; I don’t have the energy to cook for you.”
“Goodnight!”
Lin Xi pulled the covers over her head, but Shi Yu snatched them away.
Lin Xi yawned, completely giving up on resisting. “Shi Yu, even if you beat me to death, I don’t have the energy to make breakfast.”
“It’s not about breakfast,” Shi Yu said. “Didn’t you make an appointment with Xia Xun to go to the Countermeasures Bureau today to collect your reward?”
Slap! Lin Xi smacked her forehead. “I almost forgot about that.”
She wouldn’t dare stand up a Magical Girl.
Yawning incessantly, Lin Xi got up to wash. When she was brushing her teeth, Shi Yu squeezed in beside her.
The scene immediately reminded Lin Xi of a moment from the manga: the two girls in love would brush their teeth together every morning…
Are the yuri vibes off the charts now??? Lin Xi couldn’t help but speed up her brushing.
Noticing the change in her, Shi Yu looked at Lin Xi through the mirror and said, “The sun is up, and you’re still getting worked up?”
Lin Xi: “…”
She could only quickly splash her face with cold water and flee the bathroom.
Shi Yu was a shameless pervert. In this regard, Lin Xi knew she could never defeat her.
After breakfast, dragging her sleep-deprived body, Lin Xi prepared to head to the Countermeasures Bureau to find Xia Xun.
Shi Yu pulled out a micro-earpiece and stuffed it into Lin Xi’s ear.
“Don’t take it out on your own this time. You’re not just going to collect a reward; you’re going there as a spy.”
Lin Xi could only promise not to remove the earpiece. As for the spying… she would do her best.
She also wanted to know how far the investigation into the bank robbers had progressed. Was there any risk of her, Shi Yu, or Lu Yi being caught?
“Good.” After fitting the micro-earpiece, Shi Yu clapped her hands. “Perk up! We’re heading out!”
“‘We’?” Lin Xi blinked. “Are you planning on stalking me again?”
“Exactly,” Shi Yu said. “I’ll be monitoring and eavesdropping from the shadows, sending you instructions and remotely controlling how you extract information from Xia Xun.”
“That sounds incredibly unreliable. What if I get caught?”
“Then you’re toast.”
“You-!”
“‘You’ what? ‘When Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a person…’ Perverted Witch, as long as you perform well this time, I’ll give you a gold star.”
“What’s the point of you giving me credit? The higher-ups need to know. Our leader is Sister Lin, right?”
“What are you thinking?!” Shi Yu thumped her chest. “I am your leader!”
“Now, move out!”
