After Filming a WLW Movie With My Straight Girl Crush 87

Chapter 87: What-If Storyline 5

Xu Ling knew that a real scammer could definitely say “I’m not a scammer” without batting an eye, but as soon as Qin Cong’an said it, she really stopped doubting.

Or rather, she didn’t want to doubt anymore.

To sleep with a doubt, or to sleep without a doubt, it was natural to just throw her brain away and enjoy it.

She would wait until Qin Cong’an tried to scam her out of her money. Anyway, she wasn’t without money. If she wanted to scam her, then let her.

“Then I want to look at the details again,” Xu Ling said.

“Details?” Qin Cong’an didn’t react for a moment.

Xu Ling pointed to the papers with the portraits in her hand.

“Oh.” Qin Cong’an held them up and shook them, the corners of her mouth curling into a smile of having caught her. “So this is yours. Why didn’t you admit it just now? Ling, are you a scammer?”

“…”

Although the tables had turned, they had turned a little too quickly.

Xu Ling cleared her throat. “Yes, I’m a scammer. What about it?”

“Nothing.” Qin Cong’an stood up and slowly walked in front of Xu Ling, tilting her face up slightly to look at her. “I just like little scammers.”

Xu Ling didn’t dare to breathe, but with this one breath, she had an epiphany. If she didn’t want to be scammed, didn’t want to be played with, then she should be the one who scammed, the one who played with her, right?

What a genius. Thinking of this, Xu Ling reached out and wrapped her arms around Qin Cong’an’s waist, and kissed her directly.

“Like it?”

Xu Ling saw the smile in An’s eyes deepen, but for some reason, she had a feeling that she completely knew what she was thinking. Damn it.

“I like it,” Qin Cong’an replied, and also offered her lips.

Why did kissing feel so good? Was it because Ling’s lips were so soft and full? Was it because Ling was so cute, trying to act so composed when her heart was beating so fast? Or was it just simply because she had already fallen for her?

The fourth day of their acquaintance.

After her morning class, Xu Ling rode her motorcycle to Qin Cong’an’s hotel to wait for her.

She looked at herself in the reflective glass of the hotel entrance. Tsk, tsk, so cool. Wouldn’t this make An fall for her like a fool?

Xu Ling didn’t wait long before she saw An walk out. She had told her in advance that she would be riding a motorcycle, so An was dressed in comfortable clothes.

Dark cargo pants that hugged her beautiful waist and hip lines, making Xu Ling’s mouth almost water.

For some reason, Xu Ling felt that the rougher Qin Cong’an dressed, the better she looked. That kind of cheap utility tank top, cargo pants, and it had to be paired with a sexy belt.

When they were… pulling off the belt…

“What are you thinking about?” Qin Cong’an asked, looking at the dazed Xu Ling.

Xu Ling swallowed. “Nothing.”

“There you go again, little scammer.”

“…”

“Are you happy?”

Xu Ling was stunned again. Why the sudden change of topic? She nodded. “I am.”

“Mhm, that sounds like the truth.”

Xu Ling felt that she was too easy to see through as a scammer. How could that be!

But what could she do? She just meekly took out a helmet and put it on for Qin Cong’an, buckling it with a force, as if to vent her frustration.

An sat behind her and wrapped her arms around her waist.

To die for.

Qin Cong’an was a little surprised at how secure it felt to hold Xu Ling’s waist. She was so thin and always complained of a sore waist, but at this moment, holding her, she wasn’t worried at all.

“Don’t tickle me,” Xu Ling said threateningly. “Otherwise, we’ll die together.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ling didn’t know if she was agreeing to die together or promising not to tickle her.

The destination was the White Cliffs, to see the cliffs, to see the sea view, a must-do for couples.

The weather was nice today, very suitable for a stroll on top, to talk about love, to talk about feelings.

Qin Cong’an asked, “Did you draw in class today?”

She saw that Xu Ling didn’t have a bag today and was quite curious about what new things she had drawn after she had actively shown her more details last night.

“No, I couldn’t draw.”

Qin Cong’an turned her head to look at her and also saw the beautiful sea view behind her, but she couldn’t care less and asked, “You didn’t feel it last night?”

“…” It wasn’t that she didn’t feel it. It was just that she hadn’t slept enough for two consecutive days, but her nerves had been very excited. She was a little tired in class and was so sleepy she kept yawning.

But since An had asked, Xu Ling said, “It seems I need more stimulation.”

For example, what she had just been thinking about.

“Then do you want to kiss here?”

“!?” Xu Ling was shocked and looked at the people around them. Kissing in public! Although it was actually very normal, and Xu Ling often saw people kissing outside, but to have it happen to her, this, this, this was still not quite right.

“Or what kind of stimulation do you want?”

“We’ll talk when we get back!”

Seeing her angry look, Qin Cong’an couldn’t help but laugh out loud. How could there be such a fun scammer, who would blush after just a few words? How could she be a scammer?

But actually, she was also surprised that she had said such a thing. It was probably because it was impossible to do it in the country, and her time in London was already counting down.

The two of them walked around on the White Cliffs for a long time, then lay down to feel the breeze, talking about this and that, but they never talked about the end.

On the way back, Xu Ling rode the motorcycle a little slower, wanting to feel the wind more. But time, it was still so fast.

They were drinking wine in Qin Cong’an’s hotel room, with cheese. As they drank, their faces flushed red.

“Can I buy your drawing?”

“What drawing?”

“Your self-portrait,” Qin Cong’an said. “I want to take it with me.”

She didn’t explicitly say they were parting, but this was undoubtedly a hint. Xu Ling’s expression darkened. “I don’t have one.”

Xu Ling said, “If you want to take something with you, you can only take me.”

“Okay,” Qin Cong’an replied, stood up, and picked up Xu Ling, putting her on the bed. She then started to wrap her up in the blanket, as if to pack her.

Xu Ling didn’t move and let her do as she pleased, but she couldn’t get it right.

“It’s not working.” Qin Cong’an let go. After a lot of effort, the blush on her face was even deeper. She said with some frustration, “I can’t take you with me. Can you come with me?”

In that instant, Xu Ling really wanted to go with her.

No matter where, whether it was back to the country, or to wander, or to jump into a volcano together.

But in the end, Xu Ling didn’t answer this question.

They didn’t talk about this anymore after that, just started to kiss, to hug, from the head of the bed to the foot, again and again.

Qin Cong’an’s phone started to vibrate. Someone was calling her.

Xu Ling’s body was very tired, but her mind was very clear. She listened to An talk on the phone and felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. She also calculated that it should only be six in the morning in the country. Who would call her so early?

As soon as the call ended, Xu Ling asked, “Who was it?”

“Family.”

“Oh.” Xu Ling was relieved for a moment, then asked, “What kind of family? You’re not married, are you?”

“Isn’t it a little too late for you to be confirming this now?”

“So what!”

“It was my brother.”

Xu Ling still chose to believe An’s words. “So you have a brother.”

“What about you?”

“I’m an only child, but I have many cousins…”

Qin Cong’an interrupted her. “I mean, do you have an intimate relationship.”

“Of course not!” Xu Ling was a little angry. Why would she suspect this? Did she really think she was a scammer?

After the end of her tone dissipated in the air, there was a moment of silence.

They were in a relationship where they couldn’t be taken away, and they wouldn’t follow. Talking about these things was meaningless in the first place.

Xu Ling gradually got used to the rhythm of the night, and this night, she slept very soundly.

She was in a good state in class, especially with her imagination and inspiration. She even drew several drafts.

The drawings were very impactful, but Xu Ling herself could see clearly afterwards that this impact didn’t just come from the clothes, but more from the person.

As long as she substituted Qin Cong’an, she had a feeling no matter what she wore.

Xu Ling was always thinking of An and was looking forward to finding her after class. But An sent her a message saying she had something to do today and would meet her later.

Maybe it was because she knew there were only a few days left, or maybe it was because some part of her still felt that Qin Cong’an hadn’t been completely honest. Xu Ling instantly had a bad premonition.

She comforted herself. It was just meeting later, not not meeting at all.

Maybe it was just something that had come up. Who didn’t have something come up at the last minute?

Xu Ling went home first.

Li Yan was sitting at the dining table, drawing on her computer. Seeing her come back, she said softly, “It’s been a long time since you’ve been home. It seems you weren’t careful.”

“…” Xu Ling wanted to say that she had been very careful. She had even confirmed it with the person face to face! But saying it out loud, she herself felt foolish. It was better not to give Yanzi any ammunition to laugh at her. Although Yanzi was very gentle and wouldn’t laugh at her.

“The desserts I made for you should have all gone bad.”

“Ah!” Xu Ling had been eating other things happily these past few days and had forgotten about the delicacies at home. “Then what do I do?”

“There’s nothing to be done. It was always going to be one less meal.”

Xu Ling suddenly felt the walls of the house moving away from her, as if everything was about to leave her behind. How could this be? An was leaving, and Yanzi was also leaving.

Xu Ling sat opposite Li Yan, a little dejected. “I feel like I can’t be a child anymore.”

“You said that on your twentieth birthday, Xu Ling.”

They had celebrated their birthdays together. Li Yan still remembered that Xu Ling had made a solemn announcement that day.

She had even been teased by Meng Bai, who had said that she had probably made the same declaration on her eighteenth birthday.

Xu Ling had an embarrassed expression on her face.

“What happened? You and that person.” A birthday was a milestone. What was the milestone now?

“No, it’s because you’re leaving. I won’t have a roommate anymore.” Xu Ling had heard many people complain about their roommates. She felt that after Yanzi left, she didn’t want to find another roommate. Even if it were a normal person, they couldn’t be better than Yanzi. And the probability of encountering a weirdo seemed to be not low.

“Don’t say such things.”

“Why? Because it sounds very childish?”

Li Yan closed her laptop and looked at Xu Ling’s eyes without any barrier. “Because I might not be able to stop myself from not leaving.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“I like you, Xu Ling.” Li Yan had been a little moved less than a month after this roommate had moved in. Her eyes would shine when she praised the desserts she had made. When she was in trouble, she would flusteredly help, and although she had made some mistakes, just seeing her by her side made her feel very relaxed.

Li Yan had never thought of saying it out loud, but in fact, she had already said it a thousand, ten thousand times with her actions.

At this moment, Li Yan sensed that Xu Ling was lying. She was clearly making that remark because of someone else, but she had said it was because of her, which made her a little uncomfortable.

So Li Yan said it out loud, wanting to make Xu Ling uncomfortable too.

“Not just the liking between friends. And it’s been over a year, almost two.”

She would probably be very troubled, to have been liked by her roommate not long after moving in, and to have lived with her for so long. Maybe besides being troubled, she would also feel scared.

Xu Ling looked frozen, but the phone on the table was working perfectly. It lit up, and a message popped up.

Li Yan glanced at it and opened her laptop again, while saying, “It seems she’s looking for you.”
