Chapter 470: Chapter 444: Time Goes Slowly (Thanks to Xiaonan Xuemengzhu for the Reward +2 more updates)

When Xiao Qian brought in the stuff Shi Touyu wanted, as well as dinner, she saw Shi Touyu, who claimed she couldn’t get up, standing in front of the hotel’s big dressing mirror with a weird, honey-smiling grin.

The window was open, so she didn’t smell any “chestnut flower” or “heather flower” scent. Otherwise, Boss Qian would feel even more heartbroken.

It was a double room with one bed clean as new and the other in a messy state, completely illustrating how intense the night before was.

“What are you looking at? You won’t grow an extra piece of meat, you can’t even see it. Come over and take your medicine,” Xiao Qian said as she put the things on the bedside table, calling Shi Touyu over.

The silly girl of the landlord’s family was practicing her smile in front of the mirror, “Boss Qian, don’t you think I’m different from usual?”

“Yeah, you’re more foolish.”

“No, it’s a feeling.” Standing in front of the mirror, she had some complicated feelings. She felt that since there had been some actual progress, her mood had changed. She looked the same but seemed different somehow.

She wondered if everyone outside would react the same way as she had last night. Her heart felt unsettled. On the surface, everything was the same, but something was different. She no longer felt like she was the same person as yesterday. She felt as if she had matured and even thought her complexion looked different.

Xiao Qian noticed the changes too. Turning from a girl into a woman does come with changes, but due to the feelings of envy and jealousy for someone else getting what she wanted, she decided not to indulge Shi Touyu’s thoughts, lest the girl got more smug.

Since they couldn’t return to the dormitory, they stayed in the same room with Shi Touyu, with two separate beds. Shi Touyu, who had just grown up, clearly wanted to confide, and treated Xiao Qian as a confidant. Xiao Qian was curious too – how did Shi Touyu and Qiao Zhen’s relationship suddenly develop like this after being stagnant for so long?

“Actually, I think it was an opportunity given to me by destiny. It felt incredibly difficult to take that step, but once I took it, I realized that my previous hesitation had only wasted time. I don’t regret it.”

Lying in separate beds, Xiao Qian and Shi Touyu listened to each other express their thoughts. As Xiao Qian lamented the way their young friend had suddenly grown up, she reflected on her own experiences.

What was she thinking when she had a relationship with Yu Minglang in her past life?

She had no thoughts. At the time, she was already a successful, confident woman. She had the courage to do what she wanted to do. Essentially, she was the one who slept with Yu Minglang and didn’t intend to take responsibility.

At the time, he had left with a stern face after looking at the bedsheet, and Xiao Qian had been seething with anger.

Women are strange creatures. Before taking that step, girls rarely discuss such things, and if they accidentally mention them, there’s often a feeling of shyness.

However, after they become women, they dare to ask and speak about anything.

“Oh, right, Boss Qian, I… I want to ask you about something. It’s –”

From her hesitant tone, Xiao Qian instantly sensed that this probably wasn’t a pleasant topic.

“Just say it.”

“I don’t know how to convey my wonderful feelings to him. I always feel like I’m not adept at it.” It’s the mindset of a little woman who loves her partner deeply and doesn’t know how to reciprocate.

“If you were skilled, he would cry, wouldn’t he?” Nobody is an experienced driver right from the beginning; how could anyone drive smoothly from the get-go?

“I just want you to analyze it from a psychological perspective. What should I do?”

Xiao Qian actually wanted to say that going with the flow and not forcing anything was the best approach. However, given her current envious and jealous state, she mischievously switched to tricking-her-friend mode.

“Actually, from a psychological standpoint, people have an unspeakable emotional attachment to their mother tongue. For example, a person might speak their native dialect before they die. What was Qiao Zhen before your family adopted him?”

“He’s from the Northeast~” Shi Touyu mimicked the Northeastern accent.

“So, all you have to do is tell him, ‘Brother, you’re awesome, no problem,’ and he’ll definitely like you even more.”

“…Really?” Why did it feel so strange?

The highest level of tricking a friend involves adding a bunch of professional theories before spouting nonsense and then nailing it every time.

As for whether Shi Touyu actually followed Xiao Qian’s advice, she didn’t know. However, for a while, Qiao Zhen chased Yu Minglang around at work for several days for an unknown reason.

A wife’s debt is a husband’s to repay – misleading one’s daughter-in-law leads to holding Yu Minglang accountable. Makes sense!

“By the way, Shi Touyu, what’s the story between you two?”

“When he brought me here, there was only one double room left, without a single room, so we opened one. Then after I took a shower, I brought out my Old Yue.”

“That loser, he used to be called Benboba.”

“Hehe, I changed his name later.”

It was a very romantic process…

Two days felt both lengthy and fleeting.

For Xiao Qian, these two days passed just like any other, going to school and chatting with her best friend. Nothing unpredictable happened, and life went on as usual, no difference whether they broke up or not.

However, for some people, these few days were extremely long.
