What Should I do After Binding the Wrong System and the Female Lead comes Knocking at my Door? - Chapter 41

“Is it time to toast to our love next?”

Pei Yuanxi couldn’t help but chuckle.

Gu Qing, nestled in Pei Yuanxi’s arms, had increasingly hazy eyes.

She pinched Pei Yuanxi’s cheek and said a little angrily, “Pei Yuanxi, why don’t you get drunk!”

Gu Qing was practically fuming.

She wanted to wear the bunny girl outfit for Pei Yuanxi while both of them were slightly tipsy, but what about Pei Yuanxi?

She wasn’t getting drunk at all.

Instead, Gu Qing’s own consciousness was slowly becoming blurred.

She didn’t want to become the next ‘Bai Zhou’ (White Porridge – likely a reference to another character’s drunken state).

Waking up in a bunny girl outfit, covered in red marks, whether from kisses or slaps…

Although the final outcome was the same.

But who would want it to happen when they didn’t know anything!

No sense of experience at all.

Pei Yuanxi grinned from ear to ear: “I often have engagements, whether I’m accompanying my sister or on my own usually. You want me to get drunk on red wine? It’s still too early!”

Gu Qing snorted delicately.

“Are you proud of that?”

Don’t you know if you don’t get drunk soon, you won’t see the bunny girl outfit!

Gu Qing realized she couldn’t continue like this.

Drinking, she couldn’t out-drink Pei Yuanxi.

She could only proceed with her plan while she still had some clear consciousness.

Gu Qing wobbled her way out of Pei Yuanxi’s arms.

“Pei Yuanxi!”

Pei Yuanxi quickly supported her, “Take it slow.”

“I’m going to take a shower first…”

“Okay, okay.” Pei Yuanxi didn’t think much of it, just figuring Gu Qing wanted to sleep, but she was still a little worried.

“Can you manage by yourself?”

Pei Yuanxi swore, she truly meant nothing else by asking that.

In her mind, she was genuinely just worried Gu Qing might slip and fall in her hazy state.

But Gu Qing didn’t see it that way…

After hearing Pei Yuanxi’s words, Gu Qing paused, then curved her lips into a light smile and asked, “Then do you want to join me?”

“Wh… What?”

Pei Yuanxi involuntarily swallowed.

“Stop messing around, A’Qing, are you testing me with this? Would I fail such a test?!”

Gu Qing scoffed lightly, glancing at Pei Yuanxi who was standing dumbfounded before entering the bathroom.

“Chicken.”

Pei Yuanxi: …

Wait, was A’Qing serious?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

It was all a trap!

These were all tests, yes, tests!

Pei Yuanxi, having reassured herself, cheered up again.

What a wonderful day it was.

She and Gu Qing had confessed the secrets they were hiding from each other, and the problem she had worried about Gu Qing thinking their relationship was impure didn’t arise.

A’Qing is so good…

The System problem was also solved. They no longer had to worry about being separated due to irresistible factors. With the System gone, A’Qing could continue in the entertainment industry without having to choose between love and career.

A’Qing is so amazing…

Finally, they completely abandoned that dating agreement. Or rather, they were no longer just a couple, but lovers.

A’Qing hehe…

Pei Yuanxi sat on the bed, giggling foolishly for a while, then started rummaging through Gu Qing’s suitcase for the clothes she would change into after her shower.

As she searched, she suddenly heard a sound of “ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling” coming from the suitcase.

The sound came from the extended layer of the suitcase, which looked lumpy.

Pei Yuanxi frowned, feeling that things were not simple.

She remembered Gu Qing seemed to be hiding something during the day, and she almost discovered it.

That thing was likely in there now.

All she needed to do was gently pull the zipper to uncover Gu Qing’s little secret.

Now, the question was…

Should she peek or not?

Wouldn’t peeking be disrespectful to A’Qing?

But if she didn’t peek…

She felt like she had ants crawling all over her!

Let’s just pretend I was looking for clothes and accidentally saw it…

Just one look!

Maybe it’s just regular clothes inside…

Pei Yuanxi carefully pulled the zipper open a bit and reached inside.

First, she pulled out a red silk scarf with a small bell attached to it.

Pei Yuanxi shook it curiously.

“Ding-a-ling,” “ding-a-ling.”

Was this little thing making the noise just now?

Why did A’Qing put a bell in the suitcase?

Curious, Pei Yuanxi reached in again, completely forgetting her earlier promise to only look once.

Pei Yuanxi didn’t feel around carefully, but just pulled whatever she touched out.

What she pulled out turned out to be a hair clip, and the clip had two bunny ears!

Pei Yuanxi was stunned.

She had a premonition.

She was eager.

She completely opened the zipper!

Sure enough, it was a bunny girl costume!

The Christmas edition!

And white sheer fishnet stockings!

But why were there candles too…

Hiss…

Could it be…

“That’s right, it was prepared for you.”

The sudden voice scared Pei Yuanxi so much that she landed on her butt on the floor.

She mechanically turned her head and saw Gu Qing, who had finished showering, standing behind her with her eyes lowered and her little fists clenched.

At this moment, Pei Yuanxi deeply regretted it.

Not regretting anything else, but regretting why she didn’t close the door before peeking.

It wasn’t the first time Gu Qing had suddenly appeared behind her.

How could she have forgotten that Gu Qing walks silently!

Pei Yuanxi gave two awkward laughs.

“A… A’Qing, you showered really fast, huh?”

Gu Qing was practically furious at Pei Yuanxi.

Why did she hide it repeatedly?

Wasn’t it all to give this woman, Pei Yuanxi, a surprise!

Her original plan was to shower first, and then while Pei Yuanxi was showering, she would change into the bunny girl outfit, turn off the lights, light the candles, and wait for Pei Yuanxi on the bed.

But what happened!

Instead, Pei Yuanxi gave her a surprise.

While she was showering, her mind slowly cleared up, and the thought of what Pei Yuanxi was doing alone outside suddenly popped into her head.

At that moment, she had a slight sense of foreboding.

So she hurried out of the shower and indeed saw this woman, Pei Yuanxi, squatting next to the suitcase, looking around stealthily.

“This was prepared for you. I want to see you wear the bunny girl outfit.”

Hearing Gu Qing say this, Pei Yuanxi nodded noncommittally.

She didn’t believe it!

She felt that the bunny girl outfit must have been a surprise Gu Qing prepared for her, but now that she had discovered it prematurely, Gu Qing was just saying it was for her out of annoyance.

“Hey, what just happened? Why can’t I remember anything?”

“Oh no, why did my eyes suddenly go blind!”

Pei Yuanxi closed her eyes and fumbled around with her hands.

“A’Qing, are you there?”

“Quick, come save me!”

“The System doesn’t seem to be completely wiped out, I’m being attacked by the System!”

The non-existent System: …

Gu Qing laughed heartily.

It made Pei Yuanxi’s legs weak.

“Never mind, maybe it will get better in a while. I’ll go take a shower first.”

Pei Yuanxi carefully walked step by step with her eyes closed, slipping past Gu Qing and escaping directly into the bathroom.

Gu Qing pinched her chin, her gaze following Pei Yuanxi as she passed her and fled into the bathroom.

After a while, hearing music coming from the bathroom, Gu Qing smiled, slowly removed her pajamas again, and then, walking with graceful steps like a lotus blossom, re-entered the bathroom.

Meanwhile, Pei Yuanxi, after her escape, let out a deep sigh of relief. She looked at herself in the mirror and scathingly reprimanded herself:

“Seriously, why are your hands so itchy? You just had to look, had to look. Now the reward is gone. Now what are you going to do?”

Pei Yuanxi hummed softly, opened her phone to play music, and then prepared to shower.

After running the hot water for a bit, and since Gu Qing had just finished showering, the bathroom was like a fairyland filled with mist. The rising steam swirled like ethereal clouds around Pei Yuanxi’s fair and smooth skin. Amidst the hazy diffusion, it added a hint of bewitching charm to Pei Yuanxi.

Yes, for Gu Qing, she was utterly captivated.

She had been there for a while, but Pei Yuanxi had her back turned and was listening to music, so she hadn’t noticed.

Gu Qing lowered her gaze, completely locked the bathroom door, and then walked step by step toward Pei Yuanxi’s back.

Pei Yuanxi, on the other hand, was humming a tune and mentally figuring out how to coax her Gu Xiaoqing (Little Qing) back into a good mood!

Then, she felt a cold, soft finger trace slowly along her spine.

Pei Yuanxi’s body stiffened in shock, and she didn’t dare to move.

The cold fingertip, upon reaching her waist, changed its path and slowly moved to the front of her body.

Gu Qing slowly wrapped her arms around Pei Yuanxi’s waist, then tightly pressed her body against hers, and lightly teased her earlobe with her tongue.

“Yuanxi…”

The showerhead was still spraying fine droplets of water. The moment their skin touched, Pei Yuanxi’s body trembled, and her breathing instantly became very rapid.

“A-A-A-A… A’Qing!”

“Mmm, it’s me.”

“A-A-A-A’Qing, what… what are you doing?!”

As Gu Qing’s hands on Pei Yuanxi’s waist slowly moved upwards, Pei Yuanxi was almost crying from panic. Gone was her usual happy and unrestrained demeanor, replaced only by a sense of awkwardness, as if her hands and feet had nowhere to go.

“Hmm? What’s wrong?”

As Gu Qing finished speaking, Pei Yuanxi’s body stiffened again. Gu Qing chuckled softly.

“Yuanxi… turn around, look at me.”

Pei Yuanxi shouted loudly, as if trying to boost her own morale:

“I don’t want to!”

Gu Qing nodded.

“Oh? Is that so?”

Gu Qing’s hands applied a little force, feeling Pei Yuanxi’s trembling body, and she spoke again:

“Look at me, Yuanxi… don’t be afraid. A’Qing belongs to Yuanxi.”

“Always.”

Pei Yuanxi’s heartbeat was like a rapid drumbeat, pounding against Gu Qing’s palm rhythmically.

“Okay, I’ll look.”

Pei Yuanxi’s mind was blank, but her body was honest and slowly turned around.

Their eyes met, then quickly darted away. Pei Yuanxi, with a flushed face, glanced down, and suddenly her mind was no longer blank.

Instead, it was utterly white…

Pei Yuanxi, tense, immediately closed her eyes and directly pulled Gu Qing into her embrace.

They embraced in the water, bodies pressed together. Within this fairyland, their figures were dreamlike and illusory. Time itself seemed to become tender and gentle for them. Two closely pressed, fervent hearts, in this misty realm, were engraving a romantic chapter unique to the two of them.

Pei Yuanxi didn’t know when she suddenly relaxed.

She gently cupped Gu Qing’s face with her hands, like she was holding a long-treasured treasure.

“A’Qing…”

“To our love.
