Qiu Yue could feel something very soft and sweet touch her lips. Her eyes fluttered as she tried to open her eyes but the warmth and comfort were constantly lulling her back to sleep.It had been so long since she"d felt like this, so... comfortable.
In this way, Qiu Yue, though curious, drifted back into sleep without knowing what it was that had made her feel so light and comfortable.
When she woke up the next morning, she was disappointed to see that Qiao Feng had already packed up everything, just waiting for her to wake up before leaving. Even worse, he just couldn"t seem to look her in the eye.
Qiu Yue got dressed and after having a light breakfast, they both started on their way back.
Honestly, Qiu Yue was already quite dense not to realize it immediately. But with the way Qiao Feng was behaving, avoiding her eyes, not being able to take the keys from her hand without fumbling... the way his eyes would stray to her lips... there was no way she wouldn"t know what had happened okay!
She was not sure whether to laugh or cry as she saw him trying to act very natural, almost to the point she felt he"d become a plant...
(つ﹏<>
He"d act very cool, much cooler than normal as though trying to gloss over his actions. Actually, to him it felt like he was doing pretty good, he felt quite guilty. Of course, given the chance he"d 100% do it again but...
He knew she was still in love with someone else if she got to know that he-he"d done that, he didn"t want to think about it.
A spectator would like to tell him something, - don"t try acting, like ever.
To be honest, though it wasn"t completely his fault. Qiu Yue couldn"t stop staring at him, and as he felt this was because she knew what he"d done, he avoided her gaze even more. It got so bad he actually started to fumble his words.
After they reached the agency"s dorms, Qiao Feng immediately ran away leaving Qiu Yue to shake her head at him.
Just as she was stepping through the automated doors of the lobby, Qiu Yue"s phone rang and her eyebrows furrowed as she looked at the displayed name.
Why was Yao Yan calling ah?
Actually, now that she thought back she hadn"t had much interaction with Yao Yan since coming here...
Really need to make it up to her!
She made up her mind and picked up the call and was startled by Yao Yan"s urgent voice.
"I got the results!!"
"How much s.e.x did you have?!"
"He"s ——- what."
"What do you mean s.e.x yah!"
Qiu Yue opened and closed her mouth a few times. Aiya that wasn"t the type of result she was talking about?
"I was working so hard for you... and you-you!"

"ai I"m sorry ah, don"t mind me, YanYan is the sweetest! Forgive this poor Yue, I"ll treat you okay?"
Yao Yan harrumphed before accepting her offer. Never say no when Qiu Yue offered to treat you, her taste in food was amazing, and so was her ability to find places with tasty food. Look she even found that fantastical house husband that can cook!
Anyways after she heard the results Yao Yan was sure that Qiu Yue would definitely repay her big time!
"Listen carefully, this is important! I had the system run a test for me, and I just got the results."
"Before anything else, just to run this test I had to personally hack into the main system frame software so it wasn"t easy... that"s why it took me so long. But, the results are here. Ah Yue, I was looking for Zi Feng... Huo Zi Feng"s soul among all the worlds."
Qiu Yue heart stopped at that last sentence. Sure she had hope, sure she"d decided to believe in her hope, but this could change everything! Her grip on the warm metal body tightened as she braced herself for what Yao Yan would say next.
"He"s here. Or well, his soul is."
It was astonishing, the power of words. Just those few words had made Qiu Yue"s legs wobbly with relief. There it was. That meant she wasn"t wrong. If he was here then...
Right now Qiu Yue was ready to bet her everything that she"d found him. She was still scared, she still didn"t know how right she was but, but at least she knew that she could keep looking. No matter what she wouldn"t give up now, not now that she knew he was here somewhere.
"Based on the data it seems he"s an ordinary soul, as in he currently isn"t a host. However, he has a tremendously powerful soul as he was able to travel between worlds. I just don"t know how he was able to follow you here... but I had a feeling so I tested it."
Yao Yan paused for a second.
"I"m sorry it took me so long."
Truly Yao Yan was very scared right now. What if Qiu Yue was angry at her for not telling her, her suspicions beforehand? Or what if she felt that Yao Yan had taken too long?
She"d read somewhere that people would often expect others to behave in the way they did so often themselves. Yao Yan was such a trusting person, in fact, she"d been so distrustful of the right people that she"d lost them all.
"Thank you... Yao Yan, YanYan! Thank you. I-"
Qiu Yue could already feel tears swell up in her eyes. Ah was she always crying nowadays? But even with her frustration at her tears, her throat closed up and she could barely speak. Relief was such an overpowering emotion, equal to fear and anxiety. While those two kept our body going in times of danger, relief could, in one go, fell all out defenses and leave us so vulnerable and yet happy.
Qiu Yue changed into her own clothes and refreshed herself, waiting for Yao Yan to come over.
They both went out to a nice cafe that Qiu Yue had been recommended to by her fans and for once in a long time, it was a quiet and peaceful fun afternoon.
The two girls had left behind their worries and problems, adamant on having fun. And it was!
The macarons were absolutely adorable to look at, and as Qiu Yue bit into one pale pink confection, she was so happy. The crunchy outer sh.e.l.l gave away to the soft chewy center and the filling was creamy and tarty sweet.
They both got iced tea drinks to go with the sweets so that they wouldn"t be overloaded with the sweet, unable to enjoy them any further. The bittersweet mild taste of the tea made it so that they could truly taste the sweets they bit into.
(A/N: I will make this a food novel.)
Yao Yan was posing as a popular model in this world. She"d transmigrated into her own body, but using the system she"d invented a character and embedded false memories into everyone"s memories.
Yes, it wasn"t easy to do this, so how was she able to do it? The only reason applicable was that she was Yao Yan. Even Qiu Yue had to admit that while she had no idea why she was chosen to be a system host, Yao Yan had the true heroine like capabilities and cheats.
She had acc.u.mulated so many points and could hack into any software in existence, even the ones she didn"t know of, she rapidly took to, learning how to use them. She was smart and knew exactly what to do to get what she wanted. Qiu Yue felt like Yao Yan was the main character in disguise at times.
Qiu Yue and Yao Yan took selfies the entire afternoon, posing with their food and each other. They would only post the pictures on social media after they"d left the area. How had they not been recognized yet you ask?
Well, of course, they were in disguise! If you could call a mask and sungla.s.ses a disguise that was.
As this wasn"t a typical novel, the places they went to were also in very good locations and were very populated. There was no death seeking character trying to take advantage of them.
Well even if there was, Yao Yan"s stare could keep King Yan away!
(A/N: The G.o.d of death basically. But like can you imagine if Yao Yan became a king?)
(A/N: ik I"m very lame. Shhh.)
Qiao Feng was alerted every time Qiu Yue posted the pictures and though he could only avoid the real person, he could take his eyes off of her pictures. For the first time in forever he could see her smile like that, and even more so after that first soft touch of her lips. His eyes and thoughts couldn"t help straying to them.
What if... if he could do more...
The pen that he"d been twirling in his hand trying to focus was put down with a sigh. Who was he kidding?
The worst part about this was that kissing her had felt so G.o.dd.a.m.n familiar, it was as if something in him was calling for her and no matter how hard he tried to control himself he simply couldn"t forget the feeling.
Even more so, his mind couldn"t stop thinking about more. The fact that he felt like he"d done this before and the feelings he was trying to suppress were killing him.
The best part was his conscience and the guilt trying to get their sixty seconds of fame. It wasn"t enough to keep thinking about her, he had to do with the guilt ringing in his head constantly.
While Qiao Feng was lost in his thoughts, the screen he"d been intently staring at changed and it buzzed as Qiu Yue"s name was displayed in big bold letters.
This shook him out of his thoughts like thunder sounding in quiet rain but as he fumbled with his phone to accept her call...
