Her Tentacles 31

Chapter 31: Swimsuit 

“Yo, why’s everyone gathered here?”

Situ Jin’s voice finally came from the cabin door. When she took a step forward into the sunlight, the golden butterfly pattern on her one-piece dress became even more dazzling. The equally sparkling necklace and sunglasses showed off her wealthy aura.

She walked up to Shu Yao and the others. She had naturally already noticed that Mu Qing was also on the ship. At this moment, she just gave her friend a meaningful look, then casually pointed a finger back at the magnificent water park facilities that could be seen even from a great distance.

“Do you want to go over there and play now? I’ll have someone book the whole place. Later, when more people get on the ship, you’ll probably have to fight for a sunbathing chair.”

That was the water park project’s pipes that they had seen from the ticket hall earlier, coiling on top of the cruise ship like a colorful giant dragon. The red and blue ones, at first glance, looked as if a land-based water park had been completely moved up.

Shu Yao could guess from the size of the cruise ship alone that when the ship was finally sailing on the sea, the tourists, whose activity space was limited and whose wifi signal might even worsen, could only flock to these amusement facilities in a crowded scene.

Such a high level of crowd density was lethal for a social phobic.

So she nodded eagerly. “Yes.”

Then she looked at Lin Ran next to her, and in their clasped hands, she gently hooked her palm with her index finger, blinked once, then blinked again.

Lin Ran could only move her gaze back from Mu Qing and gave her silently pleading girlfriend a gentle smile. “Let’s go.”

As she left from in front of Mu Qing, she held Shu Yao’s hand even tighter.

…

To play in the water, a swimsuit was naturally essential.

Shu Yao had heard Situ Jin mention this before, and had even been teased by her friend to give her girlfriend a treat. But before the vacation, because a new world had opened up, she was always being picked up and kissed by Lin Ran in various situations without a word—

So much so that she had been putting off buying a swimsuit.

She always felt… that appearing at home in a swimsuit would make the situation even more dangerous.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too late now. There was also a large shopping mall on the cruise ship, just a few floors below. Looking out from the cabin’s glass corridor, there were even green plants on the open-air plaza-like floor below, with a pointed glass house in the center of the green belt, and under that glass was the shopping center.

Because she had saved a large expense on travel, Shu Yao no longer cared about spending money while on vacation. She pulled Lin Ran to the shopping center first, while Situ Jin naturally called Mu Qing to go to the water park first.

The shopping center, which only showed its pointed top from above, had a dome designed like an ancient clock when viewed from inside. The retro-style copper rings were interlocked in various sizes, and together with the European-style pillars on the ground, the style was completely different from the one above.

Shu Yao was at the stage where everything was new to her. Seeing this, she first took out the camera she had been wearing around her neck and took a picture of the beautiful scenery, then asked Lin Ran, “Which shop do you want to visit first?”

All the luxury shops here had their new season swimsuits on the mannequins in the windows, with spotlights illuminating them from the most perfect angle.

Lin Ran didn’t mind. Anyway, once they entered the water park, whether her clothes got wet or not was up to her mood. So she looked at Shu Yao. “You choose.”

Shu Yao looked at the exquisite shops on both sides, and the sexy swimsuits on the mannequins. After a while, her gaze, as if possessed, moved back to Lin Ran.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, her expression changing from sizing up, to deep thought, and then to a sudden realization!

Her thinking had been too limited before!

The Miracle Princess game that she could only be forced to play by Situ Jin, when it came to her and Lin Ran, could be completely transformed into a Miracle Girlfriend game!

With this change in mindset, Shu Yao was suddenly enlightened. She decided to reward herself and pulled her girlfriend toward the nearest shop. “Then let’s take our time trying them on. We can keep trying until you find one you like.”

Lin Ran, watching her mood change from shy and hesitant to suddenly cheerful: …?

A few minutes later.

In the spacious fitting room waiting area.

After the curtain was drawn, a tall and slender figure walked out from inside. Her very dark black hair was draped over her off-the-shoulder top. The simplest white style, with black-lined shoulder straps, was only a finger’s width wider than spaghetti straps, and hung delicately at the junction of her collarbone and shoulder bone.

And below the collarbone, her chest, waist, and hip curves were all wrapped in fabric. Shu Yao’s gaze couldn’t help but linger, and then she looked at the lower half of the inverted triangle fabric—

Her long, straight, and well-proportioned legs came straight into view without any obstruction. Thighs, knees, calves to ankles and toes, after looking up and down twice, Shu Yao felt her whole head was about to smoke. This time, her nose also started to feel hot.

Lin Ran took a few steps forward and squatted down in front of her. She extended her palm and caught the nosebleed that was dripping down.

Shu Yao, with this white, fleshy body occupying her vision at close range again: “!”

She felt as if she were about to faint. Seeing her faint, and seeing the scarlet blood falling into her palm, she immediately took out a tissue to give to her and to plug her own nose. Then she leaned back on the waiting sofa and muttered:

“This—this one is too—too stimulating. Can you change into another one…”

But Lin Ran didn’t let her tilt her head back like that. She held the back of her head with her palm and made her change to the correct posture to stop the bleeding. The sea salt scent from her body drew closer again, and her pleasant murmuring voice came, “Why the sudden nosebleed? Did you hit somewhere just now?”

Shu Yao: “!!”

She took out two more tissues, closed her eyes as if she had decided on the spot to abstain from lust and enter a monastery, and said in a pained voice, “You—you go and change first. Don’t talk to me, wuwu… I’ll be fine in a while, I just suddenly got ‘heated’…”

Lin Ran, who only had Western medical knowledge and didn’t quite understand the concept of being “heated,” showed a skeptical expression.

But Shu Yao’s check-up was just recent. As long as the nosebleed could be stopped later, there shouldn’t be any major problems. So she nodded. “Okay, I’ll change and go back with you.”

At this time, Shu Yao, who had just closed her eyes, suddenly opened them and grabbed her hand. “No, we have to buy it today. We have to buy the most suitable one.”

And so, next.

Shu Yao saw Lin Ran in a black and white checkered swimsuit, Lin Ran in a bow-tie spaghetti strap garden swimsuit, Lin Ran in a pink two-piece swimsuit…

The pile of tissues next to her grew higher and higher, almost scaring the counter staff who came in to deliver tea and snacks, and they asked her with concern if she wanted to go to the ship’s doctor.

Finally, after Lin Ran changed into a white short-sleeved, tight-fitting swimsuit with blue shorts, Shu Yao’s nosebleed stopped.

She weakly took out her card. “I’ll pay.”

…

“Hahahahaha!”

Half an hour later, Situ Jin, lying on an inflatable boat, wearing sunglasses, and slowly eating a matcha shaved ice and a beautiful fruit platter, listened to her friend’s tragic story and let out a merciless laugh, adding, “So useless.”

Shu Yao: “?”

She retorted indignantly in a low voice, saying that she had actually bought all the swimsuits that looked good on Lin Ran, so that she would have a chance to slowly get used to admiring them in the future. It—it wasn’t that pathetic, was it?

Situ Jin laughed out loud again without giving any face. This time it was, “Not only useless, but also a kept woman.”

Shu Yao: “??”

In a fit of anger, she became angry, pulled down her sunglasses to cover her face, and lay down on the deck chair under the parasol, pretending to be dead.

Because she had lost too much blood just now, Lin Ran and Situ Jin wouldn’t let her go into the water, afraid that she would catch a cold from the sudden change in temperature and fall ill before the trip even began.

Although she was in a happy water park, she could only watch and not play. Shu Yao felt emo again at this thought, even though her friend had promised that before they got off the ship, she could use her money power to book the whole place for her again.

Situ Jin saw that she had been teased too much, squeezed a screaming chicken in her hand, and then tapped Shu Yao’s calf with the toy. “Okay, okay, it’s not that I can’t praise you. At least you’ve learned to be greedy for someone else’s body now. I’m so gratified—”

Shu Yao: “???”

What are you talking about!

Lin Ran is so beautiful, and we’ve been dating for so long. Wouldn’t I be a eunuch if I wasn’t greedy for her body! Who are you calling that, you damn Jin!

This time, she took off her sunglasses, picked up the water gun on the table next to her, and prepared for a duel with her friend today.

Just as Situ Jin sneered, put down her shaved ice and fruit platter, and also picked up the water gun on the air cushion boat, Lin Ran, who had just gone to get fresh juice for Shu Yao, walked back, and on the way, she met Mu Qing.

Shu Yao, as if she had an anti-showdown radar, sensed the dangerous aura spreading around the two of them and quickly got up and walked toward Lin Ran.

Even though she wasn’t sure if Mu Qing’s arrival was intentional or a coincidence, her intuition was getting worse and worse, especially after she had just told Situ Jin about the fitting room incident, and Situ Jin had teased her, asking her what she thought of Mu Qing’s skills with a hoe.

Before Shu Yao could react, Situ Jin had already followed up with, “As long as the hoe is wielded well, there’s no corner that can’t be dug.”

It was because she didn’t want to hear this kind of terrifying guess from a love expert anymore that she had randomly changed the subject and talked about her own embarrassing incident.

This time, Lin Ran left with Shu Yao very easily.

Compared to the provocative, annoying ordinary human, she had noticed the strange abnormality on this ship.

The waiter who had just been standing in front of her, dressed in beach attire and diligently juicing, exuded the scent of a [parasite].

He was parasitized.

Because the sea breeze was too strong, compared to in Nancheng, Lin Ran needed to be closer here to judge these abnormalities by smell.

“I’m suddenly a little hungry,” Shu Yao held her arm and suggested, “Anyway, I can’t go into the water now. I want to see what delicious restaurants are on the cruise ship. Do you want to go with me?”

Lin Ran, of course, still nodded.

—Because she also wanted to know how many delicacies on this cruise ship could be on her menu.

The two of them left hand in hand under Mu Qing’s gaze, leaving this magnificent water park and heading toward the corridor bridge leading to the interior.

There were many types of restaurants on this cruise ship. For VIP room guests, most of them could be enjoyed for free. Japanese, Italian, steak, Chinese, dessert shops, and buffets, everything was there.

Shu Yao said she was hungry, but she wasn’t in a hurry to make a choice and go in. Instead, she pulled Lin Ran to look at the decor and today’s menu of each restaurant, so the two of them walked up and down several floors in the cabin.

And so, in the interior, where the salty smell of the sea breeze was a little fainter, Lin Ran was able to confirm.

One, two…

Not just the waiter who had been making juice just now.

On this ship, there were very, very many foods that exuded a fragrant scent.

Lin Ran subconsciously licked her lips and showed a happy and expectant smile.

This movement was captured by Shu Yao, who had been paying attention to her.

Her gaze, which had only been casually scanning, suddenly stopped. She couldn’t help but focus on the pair of lips that had become even more plump and alluring after being licked with a layer of moisture.

She couldn’t look away.

Shu Yao reflexively thought of how her girlfriend’s lips had been like this after she had been particularly indulgent before.

But it should be a little redder… Wait! What am I thinking about in broad daylight! It’s all Jin’s fault for saying those perverted things about being greedy for someone’s body! Damn it!

The memory that surfaced in her mind made Shu Yao’s face flush red.

She thought that Lin Ran was “greedy” again, and quickly glanced at the tourists and staff walking around. Although they had just walked to a corner because they were curious about the view from the restaurant’s panoramic window, and it was temporarily a blind spot…

But Shu Yao couldn’t overcome her shyness. She hadn’t reached the point where she could accept this kind of public display, and began to stammer, trying to change the subject in a low voice. “I—I think the Japanese restaurant just now was better. There was a dish I really wanted to eat. Why don’t we go back?”

But instead, it made Lin Ran’s attention fall back on Shu Yao.

Shu Yao was not the type to be good at disguising herself, especially in front of people she was close to, so Lin Ran quickly saw through Shu Yao’s misunderstanding.

But she didn’t intend to explain.

“I think I’m hungry now, girlfriend.”

She wasn’t lying. Lin Ran, whose desires had been aroused, whispered in a very honest voice, then she held Shu Yao’s still-shocked face and kissed her deeply, greedily.

At this moment, the boundary between the predator’s appetite and her desire for love was suddenly blurred.

But, without a doubt—

Shu Yao, and the satisfaction brought by this way of eating, could also temporarily fill her insatiable desires.

Her best, and the prey she was most reluctant to eat.

And the most delicious girlfriend, who had walked toward her on her own initiative from the very beginning.
