My Wife Became a Top Star After I Came Back from Quick Transmigration - Chapter 25

The room was dim, with only a little moonlight filtering through the thin white curtains, scattering across the floor.

Su Qixi lay in bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. The painful memories she had just re-lived in her mind never became a demon that trapped her, because even in those memories, there was Lin Mo.

Lin Mo had cut the heart of the demon from her memories at its very root.

A smile touched Su Qixi’s lips. Lying on her side, reliving the past once more, she realized she still loved her so much. Before, she had been too insecure. She had even thought that if she couldn’t be Lin Mo’s lover, she would be her friend and stay by her side forever.

She wouldn’t marry or fall in love; she would just stay in a place where Lin Mo was.

As long as she could see her, even if she saw her with her lover, that would be enough. She had only one wish in this life: she only wanted Lin Mo to live happily.

At that time, who would have ever thought? Lin Mo would actually confess to her?

But…

Su Qixi remembered Lin Mo getting hurt in the supermarket, which made her feel spiritually sick.

She could not accept someone hurting Lin Mo because they liked her.

It was absolutely unacceptable. Fortunately, Lin Mo didn’t get angry.

Su Qixi couldn’t help but cover her face with the blanket and smile happily. Reliving this memory made her feelings for Lin Mo spill out a little uncontrollably.

No, I have to hold it in.

Su Qixi felt that her luck was both the worst and the best. Her life was unfortunate, yet she was able to meet Lin Mo. Her experiences destined her to understand endurance, pressure, and pain better than anyone her age.

But she was also very well protected by Lin Mo. Only after growing up and going through all sorts of things, and overcoming all difficulties with her agent, did she look back and realize how much pressure Lin Mo must have been under back then.

She had fought half a class for her.

She had stood up against the school’s authority for her.

She had fought against dozens of parents, some of whom even worked for the government, for her.

No matter the situation, even the current Su Qixi might not have been able to handle it better than Lin Mo did back then. Lin Mo faced everything alone. Only after growing up could Su Qixi understand how difficult and brave Lin Mo had been.

But why would Lin Mo, who fought the whole world for her, abandon her?

Su Qixi got angry again. She put away her smile and frowned. She still couldn’t understand the reason for her departure back then. She even suspected that Lin Mo had hated her and had finally abandoned her and run away.

Su Qixi’s past also destined her to react to difficulties with self-denial.

“Knock knock.” Two crisp knocks on the door.

Su Qixi was startled and sat up halfway, looking at the sliding glass door to the balcony. In the dead of the night, was someone knocking on the balcony door?

An impossible possibility suddenly popped into her head…

It can’t be…

“Classmate, it’s me.”

Lin Mo’s voice muffled through the glass door.

Su Qixi was stunned for a moment, then she panicked and thought about the distance between her room and the one next door.

How, how did she get over here?

A few possibilities flashed through her mind. Su Qixi frantically threw off the blanket, her mind blank as she got out of bed. After two steps, her legs gave out and she fell to the ground with a thump.

She not only fell, but she also subconsciously grabbed the tablecloth on the nightstand.

CRASH! BANG!

A series of sounds echoed clearly in the silent night…

Lin Mo, standing on the balcony, stopped with the hand she was about to use to knock again.

She blinked, hesitating whether she should go back to her room.

As expected, lights turned on in the other rooms after they heard the noise. Before long, someone walked to Su Qixi’s door and knocked. Su Qixi had no choice but to push down her worry and go open the door.

It was Zhuo Zitao.

She looked at Su Qixi, then at the scattered, reflective shards on the floor under the moonlight. Zhuo Zitao asked strangely, “Are you okay? Did you fall?”

Su Qixi shook her head. “I got up to use the bathroom and accidentally knocked something over.”

Zhuo Zitao didn’t doubt her and asked again, “Want me to help you clean up?”

Su Qixi shook her head like a rattle, pushing Zhuo Zitao back to her room. “It’s fine. It’s so late, you should go back to bed.”

At this moment, everyone else had also rushed over. Seeing so many people, Su Qixi quickly explained again and pushed them back to their rooms.

Seeing that Su Qixi really didn’t need help, they could only turn around and go back to their rooms.

Su Qixi watched them leave, then quickly closed the door.

Qiu Mingyi, who had seen everything, swept his eyes over everyone and suddenly asked, “Why isn’t Lin Mo here?”

Everyone froze and looked at the people around them. Then, they were surprised to find that Lin Mo really wasn’t there. Logically, Lin Mo lived right next door. Whether it was the speed of sound transmission or the time it took to come out and check, she had the most advantage!

Qiu Mingyi looked at Su Qixi’s bedroom door, remembering Lin Mo had said she knew what to do.

What she knew how to do, could it be…?

It was clear that Qiu Mingyi had figured it out, and so had everyone else.

Jiang Lun suddenly laughed, “Did Miss Pig sleep too deeply?”

Wu Qingqing said, “Your minds are so dirty. Miss Pig looks like a respectable person.”

Jiang Lun pointed at himself. “So do I!”

The few of them didn’t pursue what the truth was. In any case, no matter what the truth was, it didn’t matter to them.

On the other side, after Su Qixi sent them away, she rushed to the balcony door in a panic. With trembling hands, she opened the balcony door. As expected, she saw Lin Mo standing outside, smiling and waving. “Hi.”

Su Qixi’s breath caught in her throat. She looked around. She didn’t see a rope from the first floor, so the only possibility was…

She looked at her balcony and Lin Mo’s balcony again. There was a two-meter gap in between.

Two meters…

“Don’t look. I climbed over.”

Su Qixi’s heart, which was hanging by a thread, finally died.

She grabbed Lin Mo by the collar and asked, “Are you insane? How dare you?”

Lin Mo hummed and walked into the room, saying casually, “Not coming over would have been insane.”

Su Qixi’s heart sank. For a moment, she didn’t know whether she was more worried or happy.

Lin Mo glanced at the broken glass in front of her bed. She crouched down to help her clean up and asked casually, “They didn’t say anything, right?”

Su Qixi shook her head. Then, remembering that she couldn’t see in the dark, she crouched down next to Lin Mo and helped her clean up, saying, “I sent them away. And you, you can’t come over like this.”

Lin Mo looked over and was about to speak. She saw that Su Qixi was wearing a loose pajama set. As she was bending down to clean up the trash on the floor, her neck, exposed under the dim yellow light, was as smooth as fine jade, with a delicate sheen.

Her gaze moved away and landed on the view that her loose neckline couldn’t hide, the faint outline of her chest. There was also a fresh scent from her bath under her nose. This scene…

Lin Mo paused and reached out to pull up her neckline. The view was gone, and the scent dissipated.

Su Qixi felt her neck tighten. She turned to look at Lin Mo, her eyes dark and full of confusion.

Lin Mo coughed and asked, “Aren’t you cold?”

Su Qixi glanced out the window and said, “It’s not even autumn yet!”

Then, realizing her mistake, Su Qixi frowned and looked at Lin Mo. “Don’t change the subject. I said you can’t come over like that.”

Lin Mo: “Don’t you trust me?”

Su Qixi said nervously, “It’s not a matter of trust. That’s a two-meter gap! Do you have a death wish?”

Lin Mo laughed. “Don’t worry. I don’t do things unless I’m confident.”

Su Qixi saw that she still wasn’t taking it seriously and immediately got angry. She glared at her, then picked up all the glass shards and threw them in the trash. She didn’t want to talk to Lin Mo anymore.

Lin Mo didn’t get angry. After she threw away the trash, she reached out and pulled her into her arms.

It was a gentle but strong embrace.

Su Qixi felt a sudden wave of fragrance overwhelming her, entering every single one of her pores. Lin Mo was strong. The strength she could use to easily take down a man naturally came with her muscular physique.

Leaning against her embrace, she could also feel her softness.

Their skin touching and the transfer of body heat caused all of Su Qixi’s defenses to crumble.

This was cheating! She was a cheater!

Su Qixi’s face was bright red, but she still couldn’t help but curse, “You shameless person, why are you hugging me?”

Lin Mo chuckled softly, leaning in close to Su Qixi’s ear. Her body, trembling from laughter, and her light breaths on her ear, were all a soft dance on Su Qixi’s heart.

She was so flustered. Her face was red, and she couldn’t stammer out any more insults.

But Lin Mo had a question. “Xiao Xi, are you worried about me?”

“I, I’m not.”

Lin Mo: “Then you’re feeling for me?”

“I, I’m not.”

Lin Mo: “Or…” Her voice paused for a moment, then she asked with a smile, “Have you realized you love me again?”

Su Qixi’s face turned red all the way to her neck this time, and she denied it even more frantically. “I, I, I, I, I’m not.”

Lin Mo watched as the gentle jade was stained with red. It was still so tempting. The light scent under her nose was an invitation.

She couldn’t help but continue to tease her. “Just say yes! It would make me so happy.”

Su Qixi was completely defeated.

Su Qixi knew she was doing it on purpose, but she stammered for a long time, wanting to give in.

In the end, Lin Mo let out a low laugh and whispered in her ear, “I’m not going to tease you anymore.”

Su Qixi lowered her head, her face red, her fists clenched. Her heart was beating fast, and her anger was genuine.

She turned to glare at her again. “You scoundrel.”

“Don’t be angry! I’ve only ever been a scoundrel to you!” Lin Mo said with a smile, letting her go and pulling her to sit down.

Lin Mo finally asked what she had been wanting to ask all along. “Xiao Xi, can you feel… uncomfortable now?” In truth, Lin Mo wanted to ask if she was feeling that numb feeling about everything. But she knew that even in that state, Su Qixi would lie.

Su Qixi was stunned for a moment, then she suddenly smiled. Lin Mo didn’t know that she was her cure!

But she didn’t answer Lin Mo. Instead, she flipped the blanket back and lay down, closing her eyes to sleep.

Lin Mo: “???” She fell asleep in a second???

No, you need to answer me! What’s going on now?

Lin Mo looked at Su Qixi’s sleeping face. She wanted to know what was going on with her, but she couldn’t bear to wake her up!

Sigh, forget it. No matter what the situation was, she would be there.

Lin Mo looked at the half of the bed that Su Qixi had given her and simply got into bed to sleep as well.

She reached out and patted her on the head. Sleepiness came over her, and Lin Mo mumbled drowsily…

“I’m here, Xiao Xi.”

It was a dreamless night, and she woke up at dawn.
