After Transmigrating into a Book, I Was Entangled by a Crazy and Beautiful Villain - Chapter 30.2
Her palm had just closed, and the fish had already slid out. A lingering slippery feeling remained in Song Linlin’s palm.
“Hiss—”
Song Linlin gasped, raising her hand to look at her palm. She really disliked this slimy feeling and quickly washed her hands in the water, washing away the residual fluid from the fish’s body.
These fish were too difficult to catch!
Song Linlin tried several more times, but the results were even worse than the first time. At least she had successfully caught the fish the previous time, only for it to be too slippery and escape. Later, when she tried to catch them again, she couldn’t even touch a fish tail.
Song Linlin even started self-deprecatingly trying to scoop the fish out of the river with the bamboo basket. However, those fish weren’t fools; they swam very quickly, and not a single one was successfully scooped up by the basket.
The result was that Song Linlin had been busy in the river for quite a while, and her waist ached from bending over for too long, yet she hadn’t caught a single fish.
She silently returned to the bank, her damp feet stepping onto the green grass. She walked back to Chi Qianning, sat down on the grass, and leaned against Chi Qianning’s body, complaining, “The fish are so hard to catch! They’re so slippery, I can’t hold onto them at all. My waist is aching, and I haven’t caught anything after being busy for so long.”
While speaking, Song Linlin massaged her waist. She finally understood why these fish, despite not being aggressive, were expensive.
Because these little creatures were truly not just fast; it was impossible to spot them with the naked eye. Even if one managed to catch the fish’s body by chance, the slippery fluid on the surface made it impossible to hold onto.
In any case, Song Linlin felt she had tried her best, but she still couldn’t deal with these little guys. This money was not something the average person could earn.
Now, Song Linlin was resting her head on Chi Qianning’s shoulder, looking at her expectantly, begging her to take pity on her. She felt that Chi Qianning definitely could catch those hateful Silver Flying Fish.
After all, she had worked so hard to come all this way; it would be too embarrassing to go back with an empty basket.
Feeling the overly obvious gaze on her shoulder, Chi Qianning slightly turned her head, met Song Linlin’s eyes for two seconds, and then calmly withdrew her gaze, turning her head to the other side. Song Linlin only heard her voice.
“No.”
Song Linlin’s request hadn’t even been spoken yet, but the other person immediately guessed what she wanted to say and refused her. However, the tone didn’t sound particularly strong, meaning there should still be room for negotiation.
She hooked her arm around the other person’s neck, forcibly moved closer to Chi Qianning, and muttered, “You refused even before I spoke…”
However, Chi Qianning ignored her words, showing no reaction. She was still stubbornly unwilling to pay attention to Song Linlin. Going down to the river to catch fish—when had she ever done such manual labor?
Song Linlin could ask her to kill someone, and she would agree without hesitation, but catching fish was something Chi Qianning instinctively refused to do.
The infamous Hong Ye going down to the river to catch fish—it would be too humiliating to let that information spread!
“Chi Qianning, why are you hiding? Turn your head and look at me.” The more the other person ignored her, the more Song Linlin clung to her.
“Look at me, look at me~”
Song Linlin was almost right next to her ear. Since the other person probably wouldn’t slap her to death, there was nothing to worry about. She continuously subjected Chi Qianning to noise pollution.
Looking at the earlobe and the fair nape of the neck so close to her, Chi Qianning clearly showed an indifferent attitude no matter what Song Linlin said. Song Linlin stopped her incessant chatter, and perhaps out of a desire for revenge, she impulsively kissed her.
The kiss landed on the back of her neck and behind her ear. Even at this close distance, she couldn’t smell any scent from the other person’s body. The touch of her lips was cold. She only touched it lightly, like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water.
Feeling the sensitive area behind her ear suddenly being kissed, with the other person’s breath still scattering across her ear, Chi Qianning immediately turned her head, looking at Song Linlin in surprise. Her lips trembled, and she wanted to say something but no sound came out.
Song Linlin was startled by the look, only then realizing what she had just done. Now, she was also staring at the other person, looking stunned, and she couldn’t help but feel guilty again.
Was my brain short-circuiting? What was I doing just now…
The two stared blankly at each other for several seconds. Chi Qianning touched the spot that had just been kissed. Although the other person’s action was very light, the warm sensation still lingered, feeling ticklish. Chi Qianning was momentarily at a loss for words. “You…”
Imagining being questioned, Song Linlin decided to apologize proactively and whispered, “I’m sorry, I was momentarily confused…”
Words failed her at that moment. She couldn’t resist and just kissed her. Song Linlin had indeed always been captivated by the other person’s beauty and was constantly engaging in close physical contact with her. She didn’t know what she was thinking then, but it was a natural impulse to kiss her.
Noticing that she was still holding Chi Qianning’s neck, Song Linlin silently released her arm. The atmosphere was awkward, and she was panicking inside, yet she didn’t feel any regret.
However, seeing that Chi Qianning didn’t seem angry, only surprised and clearly in a state of confusion herself, Song Linlin relaxed slightly.
Chi Qianning’s gaze slowly shifted downwards, looking at the other person’s lips. The rosy lips were pursed with nervousness. That was what had sneaked over and kissed her while she wasn’t paying attention.
Her mind was a mess. Chi Qianning didn’t want to dwell on the matter anymore, so she averted her gaze and said unnaturally, “Fine… I’ll help you catch the fish…”
“Huh?!”
Song Linlin’s eyes widened as she looked at her. She hadn’t expected Chi Qianning to agree to her request now. She asked in disbelief, “Really?”
“Forget it if you don’t want me to,” Chi Qianning turned her head away.
The surprise was too sudden, and Song Linlin certainly couldn’t refuse. She immediately nodded, “Yes! Of course, I want you to!”
Chi Qianning looked at her, feeling like she couldn’t quite understand Song Linlin right now. For so many years, she had disliked contact with humans, yet now she was constantly close to Song Linlin. The kiss behind her ear kept making her feel hotter and hotter, a sensation she couldn’t ignore.
To express her gratitude, Song Linlin actively offered, “Should I help you take off your shoes?”
As soon as she said this, Chi Qianning couldn’t help but narrow her eyes. However, looking at Song Linlin’s sincere expression, it seemed she genuinely just wanted to help her take off her shoes, with no other intentions.
In the end, she didn’t refuse.
Song Linlin was accustomed to her occasional silence and lack of response, but since the other person didn’t refuse, it definitely meant she agreed.
She walked purposefully to Chi Qianning’s feet and sat down, cross-legged on the grass, lifting one of the other person’s feet onto her lap.
The white shoe was easily removed. Song Linlin placed the shoe aside, looked up at Chi Qianning, whose red eyes were also watching Song Linlin’s actions. She only met Song Linlin’s eyes when she noticed her gaze.
A strange feeling arose in Song Linlin’s heart. Although she was taking off someone else’s shoes, she didn’t feel belittled by it; instead, she felt strangely nervous.
She took off the other person’s sock, her fingers grasping Chi Qianning’s ankle. Song Linlin looked at the scene before her. The other person’s feet, like the person herself, were dazzlingly fair. Her feet were slender and well-proportioned. She just felt that this woman was beautiful from head to toe, so beautiful that it was hard to look away.
Song Linlin looked up and couldn’t help but say, “Your feet are so beautiful…”
Chi Qianning withdrew the ankle held by the other person. Her ears inexplicably felt hot. She felt that she had been teased and couldn’t help but lightly kick Song Linlin.
She spoke with embarrassment and annoyance, “Song Linlin, what are you thinking about in your head?”
She was kicked by the other person, but the force wasn’t heavy. It did bring Song Linlin back to her senses. Having been kicked by Chi Qianning like that, she not only didn’t feel angry at all, but she felt a bit excited deep down.
Song Linlin slapped herself but still couldn’t control the upward curve of her lips. “I’m sorry, I’m a pervert, I repent…”
