Mission in another world with my transformed best friend

Chapter 24 The Impact of the Bet (Part 2)

What seemed like a conversation that was about to turn into an argument was resolved so easily that the two seemed to have opened up to each other.

They also started reminiscing about all the embarrassing things that happened between their "best buddies" when they were young.

As they chatted idly, they lost track of time and forgot that the bright moon was already high in the night sky outside the window...

"Hahaha, alright, it's so late, and we've been chatting for so long, I should go and rest. Martha and I are right next door, so don't wake me up if it's anything unnecessary. Tomorrow I'll be welcoming a brand new start."

As soon as Zhang Lan got up and opened the door, Wang Kai also put away his relaxed expression and said something with a slightly serious tone.

"Wishing us good luck tomorrow! Good night."

"OK, good night!"

Zhang Lan paused for only a few seconds, replied, and then her petite figure disappeared through the doorway.

Looking at the half-open door, Wang Kai felt a strange emptiness in his heart.

"Yeah, we've been eating and sleeping together these past few days, but now that we're 'sleeping separately,' it feels a bit strange. Could it be because of that 'bet' I blurted out earlier that made her wary...?"

Well, I just blurted it out in a fit of pique. It's completely unfounded that I had any strange thoughts about my "brothers".

Oh no, they won't think that way. I have to go over there right away and explain, see if I can change the "bet".

Wang Kai got up and walked to the door, but the door was pushed open again. Zhang Lan stood there straight. When their eyes met, Wang Kai first avoided her gaze, turned his face away, and asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong? Hasn't Martha come back yet?"

"No, the paper I wrote on was left on the bed, I came back to get it..."

"Ah? Oh, okay, please come in."

What do these polite words mean?

Zhang Lan didn't think too much about it. She strode to the bedside and searched around but couldn't find it. So she hopped onto the bed and knelt on the bedding, searching again and again. Finally, she found the note in the gap between the bed frame and the wall...

Watching Zhang Lan lying face down on the bed, bending over and reaching her little hands slowly through the cracks in the wall, her little bottom sticking up high but unable to reach anything, Wang Kai's thoughts were a jumble of complex emotions.

The scene of them together in the lake a few days ago began to "recall" in their minds, especially the sensations of the two of them back to back, which deeply stimulated their brain cells instinctively.

For some reason, this time Wang Kai's rationality showed its disadvantage in the struggle against his instincts.

Even when faced with such intentional or unintentional "favorable situations" in the past, he could always maintain his rationality by wielding the "the other person's soul is that of a true man" sword.

But the "bet" incident just now was said word by word to his face, and Zhang Lan didn't really scold him after hearing it. It seemed like he tacitly agreed to it, which was a bit strange.

"Anything that seems absurd, even if you know it's unlikely, might still have a chance of turning around once you say it out loud."

Zhang Lan's half-hearted manner showed that she readily agreed even though she knew there was a possibility of losing.

To make an even bolder assumption, perhaps she has already come to the realization that since she has possessed a girl's body, why not truly experience what it's like to be a girl, including...

"Hmm, it fell so far in, but luckily I still managed to reach it..."

Zhang Lan finally managed to pick up the note from under the bed, stood up, dusted off her shoulders, and looked up to meet Wang Kai's eyes, who was standing there dumbfounded.

"Why is this guy's gaze so strange? He's staring intently at my body, and every now and then he's glancing at the bed next to me out of the corner of his eye..."

Although the meaning was unclear, Zhang Lan still instinctively felt a chill.

She had a better understanding of this feeling. Wasn't this the same chill she felt last night after being slightly taken advantage of while drinking and chatting with some soldiers?

If we consider Wang Kai's expression, which any ordinary woman would immediately recognize, then it can only mean the true meaning behind that chill – a woman's instinctive self-protective signal!

"When did this guy become so lecherous? Before, he would only steal a few glances at the 'fan service' scenes, but now he's staring straight at us like this?"

Could it be the effect of that "bet" from earlier? I only gave a hasty answer because I didn't want to ruin the conversation...

However, the main reason should be "Alice" herself. After all, "Kyle," that shameless, infatuated simp, has influenced Wang Kai's thinking to some extent. Since that's the case, then...”

Zhang Lan took a deep breath, glanced at the bed next to him, and then said with a wicked smile.

"Oh, I see. So that's what it means for you to stand there staring at me like that."

"Huh? Do you understand what I mean...? No, what do you mean?"

Zhang Lan didn't waste any more words. She stretched out two fingers, tapped the wall next to the bed, then glared at him with her almond-shaped eyes, put her hands on her hips, and said...

"You've got some nerve, staring right at me like that. Are you hoping I'll just disappear so you can sneak out to some red-light district in town and find a girl to bring here for some 'fun'..."

I can warn you in advance that the walls here are very thin. At night, it's not a big deal if only I hear it, and I can even give you some 'tactical guidance' through the wall.

But don't forget Martha's next door. If you set a bad example and influence the kids, I'll definitely have Uncle Doolittle arrest you tomorrow and parade you through the streets with a 'Shameless' sign hanging up your neck!"

A long string of curses, without a single swear word, instantly extinguished the hot blood that had been rushing to Wang Kai's head. He panicked and withdrew his greedy gaze, becoming distracted, and muttering intermittently in response.

"Ah... just now, no, I just... no, I didn't have that kind of thought!"

Zhang Lan remained calm and walked over, patting Wang Kai on the shoulder as they passed each other.

"Ergou, we're all men, I understand. But I have two things to remind you: there's no such thing as 'rubber and latex products' technology in this world, so whether you get infected or not is entirely a matter of luck. You should think it through first. Secondly, there's a shower room in the hallway outside; a cold shower is free..."

While Wang Kai was in a daze, Zhang Lan quickly went out and ran to the next room in a flash, closing the door as if she were avoiding a plague god!

Martha, however, was startled and stopped combing her hair, asking with a hint of confusion.

"Sister Lan, what's wrong? Your face is all red, and despite your fear, there's a stiff smile on your lips..."

"Really?" Zhang Lan took a deep breath, touched her slightly flushed face, then frowned. "You bastard, I treated you like a brother, and you actually wanted to sleep with me!"

"Go? What do you mean..."

"Ah, well... children shouldn't ask so many questions, go and get some rest!"

Seeing Zhang Lan's expression, Martha knew she had come from next door. She rolled her eyes and nodded.

"Oh, I see. Sister Lan, you're not ready to have a baby yet... right?"

"Pfft~ Mama Masa! Do you know what you're saying?"

Martha smiled slightly and continued combing her hair, speaking slowly as she spoke.

"How could I not know? When I was 10 years old, my grandma taught me that I would definitely find a boy I liked in a few years, and only after I got married and had children would I have a home of my own!"

"This other world really starts its sex education for children very early, but some Western countries start even earlier. They look like little kids but are actually 'little adults.' I didn't expect them to casually utter words like 'having children'... Wait a minute."

Zhang Lan suppressed her surprise and walked over to ask softly.

"Wait a minute, you just said that we'll have children after we get married... But I'm not married to that guy, so why did you make that connection?"

"No need to make connections. Didn't you and Brother Kai sign a 'lifelong partnership contract'? It's like you're married. Anyone with elven blood should understand that."

"Um……"

Zhang Lan rubbed her temples, her brows trembling.

"A flood of unfamiliar information has overloaded my brain; let me catch my breath. Martha, could you please explain this to me properly?"

What followed was a few minutes of private chat between the girls...

After hearing these words, Zhang Lan was stunned like a wooden sculpture. When she came to her senses, she touched her ear and found that the top of her earlobe was indeed a bit pointed. Then she covered one eye with her hand, and in the shadow covered by her hand, a bright green pupil reflected a very conspicuous light.

Martha thought she had done a "good deed" and didn't forget to add a sarcastic remark.

"By the way, I also told Brother Kai about this. After that, he just said 'I know' and then kept laughing strangely. I can't figure out what he was thinking at the time. Just like Sister Lan, you look dumbfounded right now. I can't figure out what you're thinking either."

"Yeah, I don't even know what to think anymore... My head hurts so much, goodnight!"

Zhang Lan felt dizzy from the brain overload. She staggered to the bedside, lay down, grabbed the blanket to cover her face, and remained motionless...

"Oh no, this misunderstanding might never be cleared up. Ugh, what's the point of explaining to Er Gou? I'm not really 'Alice'!"

"Sister Lan, are you going to sleep without taking off your clothes?"

"If you take off your clothes carelessly again, you risk giving birth. I'm not saying anything more, goodnight."
