!!!
As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Yan's previously excited expression instantly froze on his face.
Then, it turned into one of utter helplessness.
He sighed and said, "Xiao Leng, could you please not use Qingqiu's voice to say such strange things!"
At the Leng Family residence, Xiao Leng was fiddling with her nails while praising Gu Yan over the phone, "Tsk tsk, I just wanted to test how long it would take for you to figure out whether it was me or the other me on the other end of the line."
"Hmm, you did well. You passed."
Gu Yan, on the other end, was a bit speechless. He asked, "Alright, what do you want? It's the middle of the night. Can't you let people sleep?"
"Hehe, don't be so impatient. Remember? If you want me to cooperate with you, you have to be at my beck and call~"
Xiao Leng blew on her nails, her eyes filled with amusement.
After hearing this, Gu Yan fell silent for a moment.
How had he agreed to such a condition?
Tsk...
"Um... I'm a bit tired today... Can I...?"
"No."
Xiao Leng suddenly interrupted, emphasizing, "You had a great time with the other me during the day, didn't you?"
"What, now that it's me, the other personality, calling you, you're not so eager anymore?"
"That's not what I meant. It's just that I spent the day with Qingqiu, and this will leave me exhausted."
"Hehe, excuses. If that's the case, let's just call off our cooperation. I'll tell the other me all about your true colors."
".........."
Hearing this, Gu Yan immediately felt troubled.
The matter of the memory fragments hadn't been resolved yet, and if Xiao Leng stirred up more trouble, it would only add to the mess.
Am I some kind of slave?
Do I not need to sleep for 24 hours?
Of course, for Qingqiu, I could stay awake for 24 hours, but... you, Xiao Leng, are not Qingqiu.
Just a mere second personality...
"I'll take a shower and then come over."
Gu Yan took a deep breath, offering his final resistance over the phone.
"Oh? Did you sweat?"
"Yeah... I had a nightmare and woke up drenched."
Xiao Leng's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this, and she licked her lips before asking, "What was the nightmare about?"
"I dreamed that you called me over in the middle of the night, and then I woke up to find that the nightmare was real."
Gu Yan replied irritably.
Xiao Leng, who had been waiting for Gu Yan to elaborate, was momentarily stunned. After a moment of reflection, she finally understood what he meant.
A faint smile appeared on her lips, and she let out a charming laugh, "Giggle... I think I understand why the other me likes you so much."
"Such a good vessel, even when sacrificing yourself, you know how to please your mistress."
Mistress and vessel...
You, a mere second personality, sure know how to play games.
Gu Yan pursed his lips, "Alright, I'm going to take a shower now."
"Wait, time is tight. Just skip the shower."
"Skip the shower? Are you serious?"
"Hmm... Of course. My time out is limited, and I don't want to waste it on something like this."
Gu Yan hesitated but eventually nodded, "Fine, as you wish."
In his heart, he thought, "What a joke. Even if you're the second personality, this is still Qingqiu's body. How could I let sweat stain Qingqiu's skin!"
And so...
An hour later.
At the Leng Family residence.
*Click~*
Xiao Leng opened the passenger door and gracefully stepped inside. She was wearing a black coat over a simple yet elegant white silk blouse, with the collar slightly open, exuding an air of intellectual beauty.
Her feet were adorned with black high heels, revealing her fair insteps.
*Gulp~!*
Gu Yan couldn't help but swallow hard.
Seemingly noticing Gu Yan's gaze, Xiao Leng playfully brushed her hair, letting it lightly graze Gu Yan's face, "What's wrong? Can't take your eyes off me?"
"Hehe, compared to Qingqiu, I'm still far behind."
"But this is Qingqiu's body, isn't it~"
As she said this, Xiao Leng leaned closer to Gu Yan, as if searching for something.
However...
When she noticed that Gu Yan smelled fresh and was clean, her beautiful brows furrowed slightly, and a cold voice escaped her red lips, "You took a shower?"
Gu Yan was taken aback and moved slightly away from her, "Yeah, of course I did. You made me wait for a while, but is that really worth getting angry over?"
Tsk...
Xiao Leng felt a bit displeased. She stared at Gu Yan expressionlessly.
Gu Yan, feeling uncomfortable under her gaze, thought, "Isn't this just Qingqiu's body? Wait, no, this *is* Qingqiu's body!"
"Idiot."
Xiao Leng snorted coldly and then sat back properly, instructing Gu Yan, "Let's go."
However, Gu Yan didn't follow her orders.
What does it feel like to be scolded for no reason?
If it were Qingqiu scolding him, he might even get a bit excited.
But you, a mere second personality, what right do you have?
So he turned off the engine, looked at Xiao Leng, and shook his head, "No, I'm talking to you nicely, and you're giving me attitude?"
"You need to understand that the person I like is Qingqiu, not you, the second personality."
"Even though we have a deal, it's not like I have to keep it."
"You can tell Qingqiu about my true colors, but I can also expose you. After all, Qingqiu wouldn't want her sister to know about your existence, would she?"
"Since you're living inside her, you should know that well, right?"
"If you can't learn human emotions, then spend more time online. Don't flaunt what you barely understand."
"I came to pick you up in the middle of the night, and you can't even say 'thank you' or 'please'?"
"Here's a phrase for you: if you're bad, practice more."
"Got it??"
Gu Yan wasn't about to tolerate the second personality's nonsense. If he had to confront her, he would.
".........."
After listening to Gu Yan's tirade, Xiao Leng...
She fell silent.
She hadn't expected this vessel to talk back to its master. Interesting...
Her mood improved, and a smile curled on her lips as she looked at Gu Yan, "Alright, you're right. I'm sorry."
"Please, let's go."
Seeing Xiao Leng smile after being scolded, Gu Yan felt like he had just punched cotton.
"Fine, fine. Where to?"
"Anywhere... By the way, didn't Ye Ye come with you?"
"No, why would I bring it along?"
"Next time, please bring it with you."
"......."
You've really learned everything, haven't you?
