I'm a Professional at Being a Scumbag [Quick Wear] - Chapter 3

Le Yi froze completely. It took a while for her brain to reboot.

The little wolf cub was already trying to pry her teeth open.

Le Yi immediately pushed her away, not with much force, afraid she would lose her balance and fall.

“Qiao Qiao, look at me. I’m your jiejie.”

Chu Qiao stared at her with hazy, piteous eyes.

“I know, jiejie.”

It’s precisely because I know it’s you that I want to be close to you and have you all to myself.

There are too many people with ulterior motives around you. It’s so irritating.

If you were mine, if you were mine…

Chu Qiao latched onto her again, wrapping her arms around Le Yi’s waist as if using all her strength.

Le Yi found it a little hard to breathe. She stroked the back of her head, saying softly, “Let go for a moment, jiejie will take you home.”

The elevator was about to open. If someone saw them pulling on each other like this, who knew what kind of scandal would come of it?

Chu Qiao pretended not to hear. She rubbed her chin against Le Yi’s like a little kitten.

She seemed bold, but she didn’t actually dare to go against Le Yi. She stopped her physical actions and just rubbed her gently, giving the impression of someone pretending to be crazy from drink, but not quite crazy.

Le Yi immediately saw through her thoughts. Just as she was about to say something, the elevator door chimed open.

A person was standing at the entrance. It seemed to be a new neighbor.

Seeing them so close, the person didn’t look the least bit surprised. They even had the good sense to step to the side.

This made Le Yi feel even more awkward.

She leaned into Chu Qiao’s ear and whispered, “Can you let go of jiejie now?”

Chu Qiao gave a soft hum to express her displeasure, but perhaps it was due to the alcohol, her voice was soft and sounded like she was pouting.

The neighbor glanced at them, and thinking of something, smiled to themselves.

Le Yi didn’t have an exhibitionist streak and didn’t want their private moment to be watched, so her tone became a little firmer.

“If you keep this up, jiejie will get angry.”

Chu Qiao immediately let go, her eyes looking even more pitiful.

Le Yi looked away so as not to be swayed by her gaze and helped her walk toward the apartment.

The neighbor even took a step back, even though there was more than enough space to not touch them.

Le Yi and Chu Qiao reached their front door as the neighbor entered the elevator.

Suddenly thinking of something, the neighbor took out her phone, snapped a close-up of her hand, and sent it to the person at the top of her contact list on WeChat.

—Thinking of getting a manicure.

She locked her phone after sending the message, smiled, and pressed the button for the first floor.

Le Yi brought the “drunkard” home, settled her on the sofa, and prepared to make a hangover cure.

“Next time, don’t drink so much.”

Drunk people were truly a pain.

Le Yi turned to leave after saying this, but the kitten, who had her eyes closed just moments before, grabbed her and pulled her into her arms.

Le Yi fell onto Chu Qiao’s lap. The sofa’s edge dug into her butt, and she let out a small yelp. The kitten immediately sat up and asked what was wrong.

Seeing that she was even carrying her along with her, Le Yi was even more certain that she wasn’t completely drunk.

Even if she was, she was only a little tipsy.

“Don’t pretend to be drunk. Lie there nicely. I’ll get you a hangover cure.”

Chu Qiao held onto her, her face rubbing against Le Yi’s neck.

“I’m not pretending to be drunk. I…” like you, jiejie.

Chu Qiao almost blurted out what was on her mind.

She caught herself, rubbing her chin against Le Yi fiercely, like a small animal seeking comfort.

She wanted to say that this feeling had been growing inside her, and she was almost going crazy from holding it in.

But she was afraid that if she said it, her jiejie would be unhappy, and she didn’t want that.

Over the years, her jiejie had sacrificed so much for her. She believed in her jiejie’s affection.

But this affection seemed to be platonic, just a familial love.

Her jiejie saw her as a little sister.

So no matter how much she spoiled her, it was just a sister spoiling her sibling.

If she told her jiejie how she felt, would she cast her aside?

Thinking of this, Chu Qiao shuddered and hugged Le Yi even tighter.

“Don’t… don’t abandon me…”

Le Yi heard her muffled voice and sighed helplessly.

“It seems you really are drunk. You’re starting to talk nonsense.”

Even as she said this, Le Yi could feel Chu Qiao’s anxiety through her actions, so she didn’t push her away. Instead, she gently stroked her back.

The little wolf cub was just like she was when she had first taken her in, sensitive and fragile, but pretending to be tough.

And yet, it was also different.

Back then, she had been afraid, but she had pretended not to care, baring her fangs and claws. Now, she was showing her a vulnerable side, seeking comfort.

This Chu Qiao wasn’t like a little wolf cub. She was more like a small puppy.

Innocent and lovable.

“Oh my, who is this, so grown up and still needing a hug from their jiejie? It’s my little Qiao Qiao.”

Chu Qiao was embarrassed by this comment. She buried her face even deeper into Le Yi and tried to explain, “Jiejie, I’m already an adult.”

Le Yi chuckled softly. “In jiejie’s heart, you’ll always be a child.”

Chu Qiao pouted in dissatisfaction but said nothing.

After stroking her for a while, Le Yi said, “Are you sober yet?”

Chu Qiao quickly replied, “Not yet. Not even close.”

Le Yi pinched her ear, like she was punishing a disobedient child.

“Just now you said you were an adult. Now you’re acting like a spoiled brat. Is that a good look?”

“Didn’t jiejie say that in your heart, I’ll always be a child?”

Le Yi hadn’t expected Chu Qiao to use her own words against her. She was a little speechless, then she laughed and patted Chu Qiao. “Alright, then I’ll go make you a hangover cure.”

After being petted for so long, Chu Qiao gradually relaxed, her embrace not as tight as before. Le Yi was able to easily break free from her hold.

“Jiejie…” She reached for Le Yi but only grabbed at empty air.

Le Yi looked at her. Her upturned phoenix-like eyes were intentionally wide and glistening, like a little deer, melting Le Yi’s heart.

“I’m going to get you a hangover cure. Don’t move. You might fall.”

Le Yi rubbed Chu Qiao’s hair. Her eyes were filled with gentleness and affection. Chu Qiao looked at her through the strands of her hair. The yearning in her heart lessened a little.

No need to rush. I can take it slow.

Anyway, I’m with Le Yi every day. I’ll find a way to make her love me.

If anyone gets to take advantage of this proximity, it should be me.

Le Yi had just started to walk away when her phone rang. She asked Chu Qiao to hand it to her. Chu Qiao grabbed the phone, saw who was calling, and hung up.

“Whose call was it? Why did you hang up?”

Chu Qiao mumbled, “Zhu Qiong.”

If you were to ask Chu Qiao who she had hated most in her life, it would have to be Zhu Qiong.

Every time she wanted to be alone with her jiejie, that woman would show up and steal her time.

Before, she didn’t understand. She thought it was just a natural dislike. But later, she understood.

She hated Zhu Qiong for being a third wheel, especially because she had a different kind of feeling for her jiejie.

Le Yi reached for the phone and said, “Qiong Qiong might be calling about work. You brat.”

Zhu Qiong had previously told her that a big-name director was looking for an actress and that she could get Le Yi an audition. It was for a supporting role, but appearing in a high-caliber movie like that was a hundred times better than being stuck in a small web drama.

Le Yi was a little tempted.

While live streaming made money, she had always seen herself as an actress. An actress’s job was to act, to bring characters to life and present them to the audience.

She hadn’t considered these things before and had been focused on making money. But now that she had some money, her mindset was changing.

She wanted to prove herself.

Chu Qiao was also starting college, so she had more free time. The timing was perfect. When else would she get an opportunity like this?

Le Yi was concerned about getting the role, but to Chu Qiao, it sounded like her jiejie was blaming her because of Zhu Qiong.

This made her feel indignant. She held the phone high, so Le Yi couldn’t reach it.

Le Yi stretched to grab it, but her leg hit the corner of the sofa, and she fell right on top of Chu Qiao.

Chu Qiao’s heart skipped a beat. She instinctively reached out to grab Le Yi. Le Yi took the chance to snatch the phone and, not in a hurry to get up, dialed Zhu Qiong’s number.

Chu Qiao looked down at her, her eyes dark. She swallowed, seemingly trying to suppress something.

The moment the call connected, Le Yi’s lips were sealed, only letting out a soft sound.

“Le Yi, about that thing I told you about…”

Le Yi only heard half the sentence before Chu Qiao threw the phone far away. She glared at Chu Qiao and tried to push her away.

Chu Qiao pulled her into her arms, covering her eyes with one hand.

She had searched for tutorials online, and they all said you should close your eyes when you kiss.

The moment Le Yi’s eyes were covered, Chu Qiao also closed her eyes. With her sight taken away, she could truly focus on the wonderful sensation.

The little wolf cub’s clumsy movements broke Le Yi’s lips. Now, the little wolf cub was trying to get to her tongue.

Even though Le Yi tried her best to clench her teeth, she was no match. Soon, the little wolf cub broke through her defenses and slipped inside.

Their lips and tongues tangled. Le Yi could feel Chu Qiao’s nervousness and shyness, as if she were a guinea pig.

She was experimenting, exploring.

Strangely, Le Yi didn’t hate this feeling. She was even starting to get lost in it.

It wasn’t until Chu Qiao’s hand reached under her shirt and began to stroke her back that Le Yi came to her senses.

This was the child she had raised. How could she be so animalistic?

Le Yi bit Chu Qiao. Chu Qiao stopped, wincing in pain, and looked at her, her eyes full of grievance.

Le Yi sat up, trying to compose herself. She said in a serious tone, “Go to your room to sleep. You’re drunk.”

Chu Qiao thought Le Yi was angry. She grabbed Le Yi’s hand and wouldn’t let go.

“Jiejie, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it. I just…”

Like you too much.

I really, really like you.

Le Yi wasn’t truly angry. The girl was a teenager, and it was normal for her to be curious about these things. She needed to guide her properly.

“Qiao Qiao, go get some rest. We’ll talk about these things tomorrow.”

Le Yi’s hair was a mess, her shirt was bunched up, her cheeks were flushed, and her lips were slightly swollen. Chu Qiao only needed one look for her blood to start boiling.

She gripped Le Yi’s hand even tighter, pleading, “Jiejie, please. Give it to me.”

Le Yi was startled and immediately shook her hand away. “What are you talking about!”

[Host, what are you doing?] the system suddenly appeared.

Le Yi: “Mind your own business.”

System: […Don’t be so rebellious! Do you remember your mission?]

Le Yi: “To play a heartless top.”

[So how can you be a heartless top without topping?]

It was Le Yi’s turn to be speechless. She really couldn’t do anything with the child she had raised.

She had to escape!

Seeing Le Yi try to leave, Chu Qiao wrapped her arms around her waist, pleading pitifully and on the verge of tears.

“Jiejie, don’t go~”

“I’ll make you happy. I’ve looked up a lot of tutorials and read books. I promise I won’t make you uncomfortable.”

“Look, I even trimmed my nails.”

Chu Qiao held out her hands to Le Yi. Her fingers were long and slender, and her fingertips were round and a pretty light pink.

Was the little wolf cub trying to top her?

Le Yi’s slow-witted brain finally caught up, and she immediately came up with a plan.

“It’s no use saying more. We’re both tops.”

Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment. She took Le Yi’s hand and put it inside her collar. “I can be the bottom. As long as jiejie is happy, I’ll do whatever you want.”
