Quick Transmigration: The Green Tea Mistress's Guide to Seduction - A Master's Handbook

"Last night?" Ji Lingshen seemed to think for a moment, then smiled and said, "I went to my dad's yesterday, sister, you forgot? When I came back, you were already asleep, and I had to carry you to bed."

Xie Qingyu looked directly into Ji Lingshen's eyes.

Ji Lingshen leaned back on the sofa, letting Xie Qingyu look at him. "What's wrong?"

Xie Qingyu slowly approached, trying to glean something from Ji Lingshen's expression.

Ji Lingshen maintained a smile on his face and did not say much. He watched Xie Qingyu slowly approach him, standing between his legs, and his expression remained unchanged.

“You were there for more than three hours yesterday, and you stayed at your dad’s place for quite a while,” Xie Qingyu said as if she were having a casual chat with Ji Lingshen.

If we ignore the undercurrents in their eye contact.

"It took a bit too long. I won't do it again next time, otherwise you'll fall asleep on the sofa again," Ji Lingshen admitted his mistake.

Xie Qingyu didn't take the meaning behind his words to heart at this moment, and instead slowly spoke again.

"You and your dad don't get along. What did you talk about yesterday that lasted so long?" Xie Qingyu asked.

"It was just some casual conversation. I asked about things in the lab. You know, I wanted to ask about those two lab technicians yesterday, but unfortunately I didn't know much." Ji Lingshen said this, but there was no regret on his face, only a hint of regret in his tone.

"You're lying to me." Xie Qingyu stopped beating around the bush.

"What does my sister mean?" Ji Lingshen asked in return.

Xie Qingyu snorted coldly at his stubborn denial and stepped forward to grab his collar. "You and your father don't get along. You don't even greet each other when you see each other outside. So it's impossible for you to stay in his house for so long. Besides, Chang Xinrui and Chang Qing are still in that house. You don't like seeing them either."

After Xie Qingyu finished speaking, Ji Lingshen could only smile helplessly. He wanted to say something more, but Xie Qingyu didn't give him the chance. Instead, she continued, "And when you came back yesterday, there was a bloody smell on you, but it wasn't very strong. The smell was very faint. At first, I thought you had accidentally cut your finger or something, but that wasn't the case."

Xie Qingyu didn't think much of it when she smelled this scent last night.

She was naturally sensitive to certain smells, and as a superhuman, her physical abilities were enhanced in all aspects, so she could smell even the faintest scent of blood.

However, the smell of blood is gone today, so it shouldn't be Ji Lingshen's injury.

"What does Sister mean?" Ji Lingshen still had a smile on his face at this moment, even though the clothes on his chest were pulled a little by Xie Qingyu's movements, causing his chest to move forward, making it look from a distance as if Xie Qingyu was bullying him by pressing him down on the sofa.

But upon closer inspection, Xie Qingyu was clearly trapped between his legs, with his arms outstretched on either side of the sofa. With just a slight movement, he could completely lock Xie Qingyu in his arms.

However, judging from the current situation, he is in a state of being restrained.

Xie Qingyu was almost face to face with him, and they could feel each other's breath.

Xie Qingyu's voice trembled slightly as she squeezed out, "That lab technician, you killed him, didn't you? He's the one who did it to my dad."

Xie Qingyu's tone was clearly a question, but what she said was an affirmation.

Even though she was the one who had the upper hand in asking the questions, tears involuntarily streamed down her face. She didn't have time to care, and stubbornly clung to Ji Lingshen's clothes, determined to get an answer.

Ji Lingshen met her gaze, and the moment her tears fell, he couldn't help but sigh.

Then, a hand wiped away Xie Qingyu's tears, "Why should you care about these things, sister? Anyway, he's dead, which can be considered revenge for Uncle Xie."

Ji Lingshen did not give a direct answer, but that only proved that Xie Qingyu's guesses were true.

Upon receiving this answer, Xie Qingyu slowly loosened her grip on Ji Lingshen's clothes and tried to leave as if all her strength had left, but Ji Lingshen grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms.

Xie Qingyu buried her face in Ji Lingshen's chest, shrinking into herself.

Xie Qingyu didn't move, and Ji Lingshen didn't speak either.

There was silence in the room.

Gradually, Ji Lingshen only felt a wet patch on his chest. When he lifted Xie Qingyu's face, she was indeed covered in tears.

Ji Lingshen slowly took a tissue and wiped away the tears on her face.

His eyes, wet with tears, were glistening but held no aggression.

This, on the contrary, stirred a sense of responsibility in Ji Lingshen's heart. His voice was somewhat helpless as he said, "Why is my sister crying? Uncle Xie will be upset if he sees this."

Xie Qingyu didn't cry like this when Xie Cheng left.

Or rather, after Xie Cheng left, Xie Qingyu only experienced a brief moment of vulnerability before immersing herself in the emotion of wanting to avenge Xie Cheng.

This emotion sustained her to SS University and to her investigation in the experimental area today. All her energy and spirit were devoted to analyzing these things, so that although she appeared to be in good spirits, she was actually on edge and dared not relax at all.

The fact that this matter has now been confirmed has snapped the string in her heart.

I was in a state of exhaustion and confusion.

Just like now, she was completely unaware of how intimate it was to be nestled in Ji Lingshen's arms.

Ji Lingshen's current aggressive style is quite different from his previous ones.

And how much his tone now sounds like he's coaxing his girlfriend.

Xie Qingyu didn't speak and buried her head.

Warm tears soaked through Ji Lingshen's clothes again. He resignedly stroked Xie Qingyu's back gently, trying to calm her down and give her space to vent.

After an unknown amount of time, the faint sobbing in her arms stopped, and Ji Lingshen's hand slowly stopped moving.

He called the name of the person in his arms softly twice, but received no answer.

Already asleep.

Ji Lingshen was truly helpless now.

After thinking for a moment, he leaned back on the sofa, causing the person in his arms to lean back as well, without waking them.

Soon, only two slow breathing sounds remained in the room.

Large foliage extended from the sofa to the balcony by the door, densely blocking all gaps, leaving only silence in the room and the two people inside.

I don’t know how long I slept.

When Xie Qingyu woke up, she felt that her hands and feet were numb, and even the slightest movement caused a tingling and numb sensation.

She reached out to get up, and touched warm skin.

I don’t know when, but Ji Lingshen’s blouse was unbuttoned and her hand was placed on it without any obstruction.

She moved it around; it felt nice.
