Liang Shi: "..."
She appeared to be alone in the room, but the sound of water could be heard from the bathroom. Liang Shi was only wearing a tank top and underwear, with two bruises on her waist. Her pants were still on, and her black wool coat was hanging on a hanger in the corner. There were water stains on the floor.
Her tongue felt numb.
Liang Shi sat there, bewildered.
Memories from when I was drunk gradually came back.
...
Unlike Xu Qingzhu, Liang Shi doesn't black out when she's drunk. She only forgets things at first, but as her mind gradually clears, those memories will gradually return to her.
Everything will come back, and you'll remember it even more clearly than you would remember anything else you've ever experienced.
Even sensory memories are more vivid than usual.
Liang Shi: "..."
From drinking the wine that had splashed on Xu Qingzhu's neck at the restaurant, to arguing and talking nonsense with Xu Qingzhu in the car, to sitting on the floor kissing Xu Qingzhu's feet after returning home, to taking a short nap in the bedroom, and then suddenly waking up and being unable to bear the darkness in the bedroom, she went to the living room and saw Xu Qingzhu looking out the window.
The sudden urge to see the sea almost overwhelmed Liang Shi's reason.
Feeling tipsy, Xu Qingzhu granted her request and took her to see the sea.
At the beach, she thought of her grandparents and everything that had happened in that world.
She, who had never confided in anyone since those events occurred, told Xu Qingzhu everything.
They kissed on the beach, the seawater washing over their ankles, and then she remembered all the sensations, all the feeling of touch.
As their tongues intertwined, she unbuttoned Xu Qingzhu's shirt.
But they didn't go any further.
The more intense the kiss, the more restrained the physical contact.
Then she and Xu Qingzhu booked a room at a nearby guesthouse. After returning to the room, she sneezed three times in a row. Xu Qingzhu urged her to take a shower. She quickly took a shower and came out to lie on the bed, hugging her pillow and saying that she wanted to wait for Xu Qingzhu to come out because she wanted to hold her while she slept. But before Xu Qingzhu came out, she fell asleep.
...
That concludes my recollection.
Liang Shi wanted to bang his head against the wall.
I want to cut off his head and kick it under the bed.
She wanted to cover her face and never see Xu Qingzhu again.
What is she doing?!
He drank way too much and had no sense of reason at all.
Why did he say those things to Xu Qingzhu and kiss her so recklessly?
Liang Shi buried his head in his hands, filled with remorse, and decided to quit drinking from now on.
She always subconsciously used this body as her own, and since she rarely got drunk, she forgot that the original owner's body wasn't very good at drinking.
However, after her luck stat reached 80, she did feel more agile and comfortable using this body.
The main difference is that they look exactly alike, even the location of the small moles on their bodies is the same. The only difference is that when they first arrived, they found that the original owner didn't have abs and her physical condition wasn't as good as hers. Otherwise, they are completely identical.
Oh right, the original owner had one more gland than her.
It's hard to say whether her body will develop glands after she arrives, or whether she will undergo differentiation or become a glandless individual.
Liang Shi didn't know what the system would do then.
But what Xu Qingzhu said last night was also right: the memories of the present moment are hers, and the feelings of the present moment are also hers.
So, it's her right now.
Liang Shi… She sighed heavily.
Then, Xu Qingzhu's cool voice rang out in the room, "Teacher Liang, pack up and let's go outside to see the sea."
Liang Shi: "...?"
She didn't dare to look up at all, and simply buried herself in the blanket.
So timid.
Xu Qingzhu chuckled, "It seems that Teacher Liang doesn't have the habit of blacking out when drunk."
Liang Shi mumbled from under the covers, "I remember everything."
Xu Qingzhu laughed even louder, "So what?"
Liang Shi: "..."
That's why she's like this!
She couldn't figure out her own feelings, nor could she escape her current situation.
Most importantly, Xu Qingzhu will have her own official Alpha partner. The system said that her OOC can change the details, but it cannot change the major events.
So in this world, the big event is that Alpha Lu Jiayi will fall in love with Omega Xu Qingzhu.
In short, it's a story about two perfect people who must fall in love and get married.
She, as cannon fodder, has to go offline in accordance with the times; if she doesn't... she might be subject to mandatory punishment.
Just like the original owner before.
Therefore, even when Liang Shi was drunk, he answered Xu Qingzhu honestly.
She cannot take responsibility.
Liang Shi was now even more frustrated.
Xu Qingzhu then lifted her blanket, saying, "Such beautiful weather. It's not easy to go out, why don't you go out and see the sea and soak up the sun? Consider it a celebration for you joining the crew."
Liang Shi secretly opened one eye to look at Xu Qingzhu and found that she was wearing a purple floral dress and a cardigan on top.
Liang Shi was taken aback: "You even brought clothes?"
"I bought it outside," Xu Qingzhu said. "I also bought one for you. Change into it in a bit. Are you really that unenthusiastic about going on a trip?"
Liang Shi: "...!!"
Her eyes lit up instantly.
travel!
Her second side quest is a three-day, two-night trip.
Liang Shi immediately got up and said, "Okay."
This is a double room. As the name suggests, the bed is very large, big enough to sleep four people.
It's bigger than the ones they had in Repulse Bay before.
Liang Shi breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed she hadn't done anything more beastly to Xu Qingzhu last night.
//
Xu Qingzhu didn't care; she meant what she said.
Liang Shi is not responsible for the kiss.
She was simply doing what she wanted to do based on the current situation; the physical pleasure led to the psychological pleasure, and in that moment, she was so happy she wanted to cry.
That's enough.
As for what happened afterward, she understood that Liang Shi had some concerns, but she didn't think it was a problem.
But Xu Qingzhu hadn't figured out exactly what to do next.
They are now in a legal relationship, so they can do whatever they want.
As long as both people are willing.
Just seeing Liang Shiquan's expression after he remembered something in the morning made her laugh.
How come I never noticed how adorable Liang Shi was before?
She's the kind of person who really wants to be teased.
While waiting for Liang Shi to wash up, Xu Qingzhu laid out the things she had bought outside that morning, including some simple cosmetics, such as lipstick and sunscreen.
The tourist area here doesn't sell a complete range of products; they're mostly off-brand items. She didn't dare to use just anything on her face, so she only bought the lipstick and sunscreen, which were brands she had used before.
She sprayed sunscreen on herself in the mirror and then applied lipstick.
Liang Shi quickly changed her clothes and came out wearing the same dress as Xu Qingzhu, but in light blue.
Both of them have great figures, and they can make even a simple long dress look incredibly charming.
The same style in different colors looks like a couple's outfit, and the outer knitwear is also the same style.
Liang Shi asked her, "It's already autumn, aren't you cold?"
"Didn't we buy leggings?" Xu Qingzhu said, "Wear them. Besides, the temperature at the beach is very high during the day, it's only cold at night."
When it gets hot, the temperature difference between day and night can reach more than ten degrees Celsius.
Liang Shi asked his phone to broadcast the temperature and found that it was indeed higher than the city center, reaching 23 degrees Celsius.
She walked over and noticed lipsticks on the shelf, exclaiming in surprise, "You even bought this?"
"Mm." Xu Qingzhu said, "It's essential for improving complexion. I didn't sleep well last night."
A look of panic flashed across Liang Shi's face. "Ah?"
They practically had "What does this have to do with me? Is it my problem? What happened?" written all over their faces.
Xu Qingzhu chuckled, twisted the lipstick to compare it to her skin color, and then closed the cap. "It has nothing to do with you."
Liang Shi: "..."
I'm still on tenterhooks.
Xu Qingzhu handed her the hair tie. "Teacher Liang, can you help me tie my hair?"
Liang Shi: "Huh?"
"If it doesn't work, then forget it." Xu Qingzhu put the hair tie back on the table. Liang Shi, feeling incredibly guilty after being drunk last night, immediately picked it up. "I can do it."
