It was a clash of softness against softness, plush yielding to plush.
“No, sorry about that, Liang Sheng,” Ou Lu snapped back to reality and hurriedly pulled away from Liang Sheng’s body. The lingering softness of their flesh against each other still tingled. “Sorry, sorry, sorry…”
In truth, when Liang Sheng’s body had drawn her in, the sensation had felt so real and intense that it left Ou Lu a little dazed, a little intoxicated. It made her think of Liang Sheng’s smile, the tender touch of her skin, that overwhelming feeling—and before she knew it, her heart was fluttering with desire.
But then Liang Sheng had pulled her back in, and suddenly Ou Lu realized she was still nestled in the girl’s arms, with gentle fingers stroking her back.
She straightened up in a panic, her face flushing red. “Liang Sheng, you… you just pulled me…”
This so-called “female CEO” wanted the Green-haired Girl to release her wandering hands and give her some freedom.
Liang Sheng watched Ou Lu. She’d only meant to tease her a bit, instinctively drawing this Scorpion Beauty into her embrace.
No matter how you sliced it, this beauty now harbored feelings for her that went beyond friendship, so Liang Sheng naturally felt bolder than before.
Liang Sheng smiled. “I just pulled you in for a second. But Sister Ou Lu, you looked really cute back there~.”
Ou Lu froze. She hadn’t expected Liang Sheng to say something like that.
But damn, it was seductive.
“Ding~”
Favorability increased.
“Ou Lu’s Favorability towards Liang Sheng: 112”
“W-We should get going!” Afraid others might notice her blushing, Ou Lu spun on her heel and hurried toward the office door without looking back, terrified the Green-haired Girl might chase after her and see her flushed cheeks.
Liang Sheng had seen so many girls get shy like this before. She knew this beauty was embarrassed and decided not to press it. Instead, she trotted after her with a playful bounce.
“Sister Ou Lu, why are you walking so fast? Wait for me~”
Liang Sheng was feeling mischievous. She clasped her hands behind her back and sauntered after the flustered Ou Lu.
Ou Lu paused but still didn’t turn around.
Liang Sheng sidled up beside her and gently took hold of her hand. “Hey~ Sister Ou Lu, I’m directionally challenged. If I lose sight of you, I’ll get totally lost~. So, you lead the way, okay~?”
“Ding~”
Favorability increased.
“Ou Lu’s Favorability towards Liang Sheng: 115”
“Mm…” Ou Lu slowly tightened her grip on Liang Sheng’s hand.
Mm~ A Mature Big Sis with this kind of unexpected charm was right up Little Liang Sheng’s alley.
Liang Sheng quickened her pace to match Ou Lu’s steps.
The two of them reached the elevator. Ou Lu jabbed the close button, her mind a total blank.
But Liang Sheng showed no sign of nerves. Instead, she pressed her body closer to Ou Lu.
Ah, this Green-haired Girl was getting better and better at this~.
Ou Lu could hear her own heart pounding—thump-thump-thump—like a drumbeat.
In a fluster, she glanced at the elevator mirror.
There she was: cheeks rosy, eyes glazed over, a hungry desire simmering in her gaze.
Had her expression turned this sultry? Was this really her? She couldn’t bear to look and quickly averted her eyes.
Ou Lu, how could you act like this? You’re a girl, and Liang Sheng is a girl too.
How could you blush like this over another woman—and feel desire for her?
Ou Lu cupped her face with both hands and rubbed hard, trying to calm herself down.
Whew~ She desperately wanted a cigarette to steady her nerves.
The tension had even triggered her nicotine craving.
“Ding~”
The elevator reached the ground floor, and Ou Lu scurried out with small, hurried steps.
Liang Sheng followed right behind.
Seeing a Mature Big Sis make such cute gestures and faces was just too adorable.
Ou Lu headed to her car to drive Liang Sheng out for a meal.
“Liang Sheng, what do you feel like eating?”
That was exactly the question plaguing Liang Sheng too. What to eat, where to eat—somewhere that would let her deploy her flirting skills most effectively?
“Well…” Liang Sheng tapped her chin thoughtfully.
“Liang Sheng, how about Western food?” Before she could finish, Ou Lu cut in with the question.
“Western? I’m not sure. As long as it tastes good, I’m not picky. Ahem.” Liang Sheng replied.
Ou Lu furrowed her brow. That made things easy. “Then how about I take you for some Italian pasta?”
She figured since Liang Sheng claimed not to be picky, there shouldn’t be any objections.
“Mm~” Liang Sheng nodded. “Sounds great—thanks for treating me, Sister Ou Lu!”
Ou Lu gave a small smile and started the car.
In reality, the Green-haired Girl had never actually eaten Italian pasta.
Well, that wasn’t entirely accurate. The original owner of this body, Liang Sheng, had tried it—but the memories Liang Sheng possessed were only those of “Liang Sheng” from her past life.
Of course, that Liang Sheng had eaten Italian pasta too, but only by mimicking videos for fun. She’d botched it completely, and it tasted awful.
What if she embarrassed herself eating it now?
Liang Sheng felt a twinge of anxiety, wondering how to twirl pasta with a fork.
What if she hated the taste and spat it out—or choked on it? That would be mortifying.
“Ding~”
“Ding~”
“Ding~”
“Ding~”
Ou Lu pulled the car to a stop. Her phone was buzzing and ringing nonstop.
Sigh. As a CEO, Ou Lu was a terribly busy woman. She took her work seriously too, handling almost everything personally.
Liang Sheng started to feel a bit sorry for this powerhouse. Sure, she had a thriving career, admiration, respect, financial freedom—but it seemed exhausting.
“Hello?” Ou Lu answered the call.
Without speakerphone on, the Green-haired Girl couldn’t hear what the person on the other end was saying to the beauty.
“Ah… Little Li, I want to take the afternoon off today. So if any more documents come in, could you review them for me? If you’re unsure, just send them over. I’ll look at home tonight.” Ou Lu sighed.
Liang Sheng watched Ou Lu’s helpless expression, and her heart ached. An impulse welled up inside her—a protective urge to pull Ou Lu into her arms.
Ah~ Another day living the Sea King life~.
Liang Sheng wanted to do something to help ease Ou Lu’s fatigue.
“Sister Ou Lu, after we eat, let’s go have some fun!”
Conveniently, that was exactly what Ou Lu had in mind too—some relaxation after the meal, though she hadn’t decided where.
“What do you want to do?” Ou Lu asked.
Liang Sheng thought it over. The ultimate stress-reliever was bungee jumping, but…
She shuddered at the memory of the dizziness after jumping with Bai Zhen. No way. And definitely not right after eating—that would just lead to puking everywhere in embarrassment.
“How about… we go play in the water?”
Ou Lu glanced at the overcast sky, then at the puffy coats they were both wearing. “You… sure?”
Liang Sheng grinned. “Of course indoors, Sister Oulu! It’s freezing out here—where would we even find outdoor water play in this weather?”
