I Helped My Best Friend with Her Romance—and Fell for the Enemy’s Strategist - Chapter 47

National Day arrived, and University C had an eight-day holiday.

Since all four of them were locals, there was no need to buy train tickets.

Most importantly, all four of them owned cars, a testament to their comfortable family backgrounds.

They had obtained their driver’s licenses long ago.

“Sis, I heard you’re going on a road trip?”

Lin Shuyi sidled over. She, too, had an eight-day break.

She had been quite surprised to learn that her older sister was dating Fu Yanxi.

Lately, as a military instructor, she had been busy training freshmen.

She hadn’t had much time to act as Fu Yanxi’s relationship coach.

She had even returned all the “start-up funds” she had previously asked Fu Yanxi for.

Money wasn’t an issue for her; she had just wanted to test the capabilities of her potential sister-in-law.

“Yeah, we planned it a while ago. Since it’s not too cold yet, we’re heading to the islands for a week to relax,” Lin Ruocheng replied as she packed several bikinis, swimsuits, and other clothes into her suitcase, including undergarments. After all, a week-long trip required ample preparation.

Things would only get busier after they returned.

She and Fu Yanxi still hadn’t finalized their performance plans, though the program list was already set.

She also needed to finish coding the final parts of some games.

And she had to find a voice actor to dub the remaining three roles.

She was swamped, far from having it easy.

“Sis~ dearest sis~~”

Lin Shuyi leaned in closer, but before she could say anything, Lin Ruocheng already knew what the girl was thinking.

“Need money? How much?”

Whenever Lin Shuyi acted like this, it was always because she wanted money. Even though their mother didn’t give her an allowance, Lin Shuyi had various scholarships to rely on. From a young age, she had learned that sticking close to her older sister meant good things would come her way.

Driven by her love for good food, she had become a fiercely loyal protector of her sister.

“It’s not about money! Do I seem that shallow? I want to come too~ The islands… I don’t have anything to do during the break. Please let me tag along! I promise I won’t interrupt your romantic time. Just feed me, and I’ll be happy. I remember the islands have amazing seafood feasts.”

For the sake of good food, she didn’t mind being a third wheel.

With Lin Shuyi joining, their group would total five.

It was just the right number for their SUV.

It wasn’t a bad idea, they could even have her drive and handle odd jobs.

If she didn’t mind being the extra, there was no reason for Lin Ruocheng to worry.

After all, someone had to play that role.

“Fine, go pack your things.”

Lin Shuyi immediately stood up and saluted her.

“Mission accepted!”

Seafood feast!

She had been craving it for so long!

…

On the afternoon of October 1st, the group gathered at Lin Ruocheng’s house with their luggage.

Lin Shuyi was especially eager to help, carrying her sisters’ bags.

She then took the driver’s seat.

The SUV was spacious enough to comfortably seat six people.

Fu Yanxi settled into the back seat.

Lin Ruocheng sat beside her, smiling warmly.

“I brought some snacks, they’re all your favorites. There’s a trash bag here, and I have motion sickness medicine if you need it. Whatever you want, I’ve got it covered. If you’re hungry, feel free to eat. I’ve also downloaded some movies on the tablet for the ride, so it won’t be boring. The drive will take about three to four hours.”

Lin Ruocheng was exceptionally thoughtful, a natural planner with a strong sense of responsibility.

No matter where she went, she always brought a lot of things with her.

She seemed prepared for any situation.

She even had the nickname Doraemon.

It felt as if she carried a treasure chest by her side, containing everything one could possibly need.

And it seemed to hold an endless amount of items.

Fu Yanxi still felt a bit dazed, unable to believe that she had actually become the girlfriend of the girl she had secretly admired for so long.

It felt like a dream, utterly unbelievable.

Perhaps she had been gazing at the sun for too long.

When they were younger, the view she saw most often was the other girl’s retreating back, as she would flee at the sight of her.

“Sis, are we leaving now?”

“Alright.”

Lin Shuyi drove steadily, yet swiftly.

Lin Ruocheng lowered the sunshade.

The projector inside the car began playing the TV series she had downloaded in advance.

The four of them leaned back in their seats.

Watching the drama, with a mini-fridge in the car, it was pure bliss, this was what a vacation should feel like.

The Lin family had always adhered to the principle of working diligently when it was time to work.

And playing wholeheartedly when it was time to play.

They believed in indulging to the fullest.

The two mothers of the Lin family often said, “We work hard so that you two can enjoy life.”

So, when it was time to have fun, they could do so without restraint.

Otherwise, all the money they earned would be for nothing.

Lin Ruocheng loved snuggling, especially against Fu Yanxi.

It felt incredibly comfortable. She found a cozy spot.

And nestled into her embrace.

Only through such closeness could their bond grow stronger.

Besides, now that she had a girlfriend, she could snuggle as much as she wanted.

It was different from being alone before.

She was the official girlfriend, what was wrong with a little affection?

Even a surprise kiss wouldn’t be out of place.

The little “orange” in her arms was as quiet as a kitten nestled close.

Occasionally, she would let out soft, contented sighs.

How wonderful it would be if life could continue like this forever.

Lin Ruocheng tentatively reached out to touch the other’s face.

“Are you feeling better now?”

“Yes, much better. With my girlfriend’s tender care, I recovered quickly.”

Fu Yanxi held her wrist and gently kissed her palm.

The sensation was ticklish, making Lin Ruocheng wonder if this person was really as inexperienced as she claimed.

How could she be so skilled?

Lin Ruocheng snuggled deeper into her embrace.

Fu Yanxi held her close, playing with her hair.

For the first time, Lin Ruocheng realized how thin her girlfriend was, lying against her felt a bit bony.

It seemed she would need to fatten her up a little in the future.

A plump figure would surely feel much better than the current slender frame.

Lin Ruocheng held her hand.

Now she could finally indulge in admiring those slender, elegant fingers she had been longing for over the past month.

The moment she met Fu Yanxi, she had been captivated by those hands.

Although it felt somewhat improper.

But there was no helping it, lesbians tended to pay special attention to such details.

Before finding a partner, one could manage on their own.

But having a girlfriend and still resorting to DIY would be nothing short of a joke.

“Do you really enjoy playing with my hands so much?”

Fu Yanxi hadn’t understood it before, but after participating in a yuri audio drama, she realized why lesbians placed such importance on a woman’s hands. She never thought her own hands were particularly remarkable, but several senior voice actors had told her that her hands would surely help her find a wonderful girlfriend.

At that time, her heart could only hold space for one girl.

From then on, she began taking meticulous care of her hands, hoping that one day Lin Ruocheng would notice them.

Thankfully, thankfully she took a liking to these hands of mine.

Of course, I knew exactly what these hands were meant for.

All those years of voice acting for audio dramas hadn’t gone to waste.

I had always voiced the dominant roles, never the submissive ones.
