118: Chapter 118 Late at Night, Three Young Girls in the Bloom of Love

Late at night, at the Qiao Family.

In a pink room filled with a girlish atmosphere.

Qiao Shiyu was wearing pink pajamas, clutching a rabbit doll almost as big as herself, curled up on the large, soft bed.

Her long, silver-white hair was scattered across the pillow, her small face buried in the doll's soft belly, revealing only a pair of wide-open eyes that showed no sign of sleepiness.

Yet, what surged within those eyes at this moment were not calm thoughts.

In her mind, the scenes from today played on an uncontrollable loop—

The focused and gentle gaze of Brother Lin Yun when he was guiding her...

The way that Stinky Meatball, Bai Lulu, had pretended to be seductive while getting so close to Brother Lin Yun...

The embarrassment she felt when she had blurted out her promise to show Brother Lin Yun her swimsuit photos...

And... and that faint, almost imperceptible smile on Brother Lin Yun's lips when he received the photos...

"Wuu..."

Qiao Shiyu couldn't help but bury her face deeper into the doll, letting out a whimper of shy annoyance.

With every passing thought, she felt her cheeks growing hotter and her heartbeat racing faster.

Her thoughts were like a wild horse off its leash, jumping from Lin Yun to Bai Lulu's "seductive" posture, and then back to her own "bold" promise...

"Will Brother Lin Yun think my swimsuit doesn't look good?"

"Will the photos of that Stinky Meatball, Bai Lulu, be more attractive than mine?"

"Was she doing it on purpose when she said she wanted to trade photos for guidance today?"

The more she thought about it, the hotter her cheeks became, a rosy, burning flush spreading from head to toe.

She hugged the rabbit doll tightly, her little brows slightly furrowed, yet the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, looking like a girl whose heart was fluttering, yet who was completely at a loss.

She didn't know how much time had passed—long enough for the starlight outside the window to have shifted its position.

Qiao Shiyu suddenly lifted her head from the doll, her large eyes wide and round, a flash of alertness flickering within them!

Something is wrong!

That Dead Meatball, Bai Lulu... her behavior today was too strange!

Although she had always stood against her, grabbing things and competing for victory, those were always things between the two of them!

But today... she actually took the initiative to approach Brother Lin Yun!

And she looked at him with that... that kind of gaze!

She even used her swimsuit photos as a trade!

Could it be...

A thought that made her alarm bells ring instantly struck her mind like lightning:

Is that Stinky Meatball, Bai Lulu... trying to compete with me for Brother Lin Yun?!

Once this thought appeared, it grew wildly like weeds, instantly occupying all of her thoughts.

The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed!

Otherwise, how could one explain her strange behavior today?

Thinking of Bai Lulu's hot figure, seductive tone, and the way she had actively leaned into Lin Yun today.

An unprecedented emotion, a mixture of crisis, annoyance, and a trace of panic she hadn't even realized herself, instantly gripped Qiao Shiyu's heart.

She hugged the doll, tossing and turning on the bed in agitation, her little mouth pouting high.

"Damn it! Dead Meatball! Stinky Meatball! How dare you compete with me! Just wait until I..."

She shook her little fist indignantly, but her mind was completely blank regarding what exactly she would do to "just wait."

On the other side, in Qiao Feifei's room.

Qiao Feifei was also experiencing a rare bout of insomnia.

She lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, her mind equally cluttered with chaotic thoughts.

Today... Brother Lin Yun had given her guidance on her Combat Technique.

Although it wasn't for long, it was the first time she had been in such close contact with a male who was neither a Family elder nor a virtual instructor.

The gentle breath when he spoke, his fingers occasionally brushing against her wrist to guide the direction of her force, and those deep, calm eyes that seemed to see through everything...

During the day while studying, because she was focused, she hadn't felt much.

But now, in the stillness of the night, every detail was magnified, and an indescribable shyness and palpitation surged into her heart like a tide.

She felt like she was going to steam!

Her cheeks were burning, her heart was drumming, and she tossed and turned, unable to sleep at all.

"Wuu... Brother Lin Yun... swimsuit... and today..."

She buried her face in the pillow, letting out a muffled, ambiguous whine.

Also suffering from insomnia was Bai Lulu.

She lay on her spacious and comfortable, yet coldly minimalist, large bed, equally unable to sleep.

Her mind replayed her "feat" from today over and over.

Taking the initiative to get close to Lin Yun, using her swimsuit photos to make a trade, and... the embarrassment of almost fleeing in defeat at the end.

"What is wrong with me..." She stared at the ceiling, muttering to herself.

How could she have been so possessed to do such a thing?

She had clearly only wanted to annoy Little Bean and, incidentally, see what kind of skills that Lin Yun actually had...

But when she really got close to him, smelled that clean and refreshing scent, and saw his calm eyes that seemed capable of peering into one's heart...

And, when she sent those photos and imagined the scene of him potentially clicking to view them...

A strange emotion that made her heart flutter and panic was clawing at her heart like a little beast.

She turned over in agitation, burying her face in the pillow.

"It's all Little Bean's fault... Yes! She forced me!"

She tried to push the blame away, but the trace of strange palpitation in her heart could not deceive her.

That night, the three young girls, each with their own thoughts, remained awake all night, their minds swirling with the figure of the same person.

...

The next afternoon.

Combat Technique Analysis Hall.

Bai Lulu, not knowing what method she used, had actually managed to obtain access rights to the Combat Technique Analysis Hall.

She had also secretly changed the agreed-upon location for guidance to this place—exactly the same spot where Qiao Shiyu had previously asked for guidance.

When Qiao Shiyu and Qiao Feifei arrived, Bai Lulu was already waiting inside.

She was wearing a form-fitting black training suit today, which, as always, showcased her physical advantages to the fullest.

But under the filter of Qiao Shiyu's "colored glasses" at this moment, this originally ordinary training suit looked "seductive" no matter how she looked at it!

"Hmph! Who is she dressing up for!"

Qiao Shiyu muttered under her breath, and the suspicion in her heart that "Bai Lulu is trying to compete with me for Brother Lin Yun" became even more certain!

Otherwise, why change the location to such a "private" Analysis Room?

And dress so... um, revealing her curves!

This was clearly showing off on purpose! Trying to seduce someone!

Bai Lulu didn't know her thoughts, otherwise she would really feel wronged.

Just like yesterday, she hadn't specially dressed up.

It was just that her figure was too good; even the simplest training suit could be worn with a hot and seductive feel, which, in Qiao Shiyu's eyes, became "deliberately seductive."

When Bai Lulu saw Qiao Shiyu, she habitually wanted to make a sarcastic remark.

But when the words reached her lips, she inexplicably remembered her insomnia last night and all those messy thoughts; her eyes flickered, and in the end, she just gave a soft huff and said nothing.

Seeing that she didn't take the initiative to provoke her, Qiao Shiyu became even more alert—

Abnormal!

Too abnormal!

This Dead Meatball must be plotting something bad!

Not long after, Lin Yun walked in with Su Yingxue and the others.

As soon as he entered, he felt that something was wrong—

In the past, whenever Qiao Shiyu and Bai Lulu met, they would quarrel endlessly.

But today, the two of them were actually standing quietly to the side, neither speaking, the atmosphere particularly subtle.

Su Yingxue's eyes lit up first, and she quietly nudged Shen Youqing beside her.

The group exchanged a knowing look, a trace of realization and amusement flashing in their eyes—

Judging by this posture, these two little girls, could it be that without Husband needing to make a move, they have already conquered themselves?

One secretly full of jealousy, the other deliberately acting seductive, it was clear that both had developed feelings for Lin Yun.
