65. So Full, Burp
Sunlight peeked through a gap in the curtains.
Inside the room, one girl slept soundly in bed, while another sat on the edge, brushing her tangled, snow-white hair.
She licked her lips, the lingering taste of blood still present. So full, burp~
Xiao Nuonuo’s blood was incredibly delicious, a sweet, refreshing spring, like mint, flowing through her mouth and throat, spreading warmth throughout her body, a feeling of complete satisfaction.
It was a delightful experience, blood-drinking always a pleasure for a vampire, especially when hungry. Ruo Xiaoxi was completely satiated.
“Full and energized, I feel strong enough to punch a cow to death!” Ruo Xiaoxi flexed her slender arm, admiring her nonexistent muscles.
Lan Yinuo’s eyelashes fluttered, her pink fingernails pressing lightly against her palm, turning slightly white.
Her clear, expressive eyes slowly opened in the morning light. She saw Ruo Xiaoxi’s back, adjusting her skirt and pulling up the zipper.
“Xiaoxi, are you leaving?” Lan Yinuo mumbled sleepily, pushing herself up.
“It’s morning, I should go home.”
“No… Xiaoxi, you’re not allowed to just leave! Take off your skirt!” Lan Yinuo said, reaching out and grabbing her arm, her voice soft and pleading, not letting her go.
“I have to wear something, even if I’m not going home. It would be awkward if your mom saw me like this.”
“Mmm… true.”
“I was going to put my stockings back on, but they’re ripped. You can have them.” Ruo Xiaoxi held up the stockings, the laddered runs a clear indication of… activities.
As for who had ripped them, she wouldn’t say, letting Xiao Nuonuo figure it out herself.
“Sorry, I’ll buy you a new pair… really? You’re giving them to me? I’ll treasure them.”
“Treasure them!? Don’t treat them like a gift! I’m just showing you what you did!” Ruo Xiaoxi said, rubbing her forehead. Sometimes I wonder if Xiao Nuonuo is secretly a little devil.
She changed her mind and took the stockings back. “Actually, no, I’ll keep them.”
“But you said you were giving them to me! Why are you taking them back?”
“Fine, I’ll give them to you! Just throw them away later, don’t keep them.”
Seeing Xiao Nuonuo’s disappointed expression, Ruo Xiaoxi relented and tossed the ripped stockings back. They weren’t expensive anyway, and she had plenty more.
As a white-stocking enthusiast, her stocking collection was her arsenal of charm.
After getting dressed, they went to the bathroom to freshen up. Xiao Nuonuo’s mother was already preparing breakfast, but Ruo Xiaoxi decided to skip it.
“Thank you, Auntie, but I’m still full. I’ve already booked my train ticket.”
“You should eat something. You haven’t eaten anything yet, and you might get carsick on an empty stomach,” Xiao Nuonuo’s mother said from the kitchen, where she was making millet porridge.
Ruo Xiaoxi walked to the door and put on her shoes, her bare legs exposed, only wearing short socks, which her mother didn’t seem to notice.
If she does notice, I’ll just say her daughter stole them! Let Xiao Nuonuo take the blame.
“No, really, I’m full, thank you for your hospitality! So, Xiao Nuonuo, I’ll be going home. We’ll see each other when school starts in a few days.”
“Are you sure you don’t want any breakfast? My mom’s millet porridge is really good.”
“I’m running late. Don’t worry about me,” Ruo Xiaoxi said, standing by the door. Lan Yinuo followed her, reluctant for her to leave.
But she couldn’t be too greedy. She had already kept Xiaoxi overnight; asking her to stay longer would be too much. Besides, she was happy; she should be content.
“Then let me walk you to the station. I’ll just change my clothes.”
“No, no, I can go by myself. What, are you going to miss me?” Ruo Xiaoxi teased, gently booping Xiao Nuonuo’s nose. “We’ll hang out again next time.”
“Okay… see you at school then… Thank you, Xiaoxi, for such a wonderful night. I’ll cherish the memory,” Lan Yinuo whispered, blushing, her gaze fixed on the floor.
She seemed worried about her mother overhearing, but she still wanted to express her gratitude. This secret, whispered intimacy felt strangely exciting and addictive.
“Cherish… Don’t cherish it! Forget about it!”
This must be my day of humiliation, defeated by the innocent Xiao Nuonuo.
It was so… embarrassing… I couldn’t… No, no, I only went along with it because Xiao Nuonuo was trying so hard. It wasn’t because I couldn’t resist her, I swear!
She had given the shy and socially anxious Xiao Nuonuo a perfect date. Hopefully, she would be more confident and make more friends in high school, so she wouldn’t be so lonely.
She had encouraged Xiao Nuonuo to be more proactive, to take advantage of the new environment and make new friends. Everyone was new in high school; it was the perfect opportunity.
She had told Xiao Nuonuo not to worry, to be brave, and that she would always be there for her.
If she succeeded, they would celebrate; if she failed, it was okay, nothing lost. Knowing someone was supporting her would surely give Xiao Nuonuo courage.
And Xiao Nuonuo was actually quite likable; if she just opened up a little, she would be very popular. Ruo Xiaoxi swore, if that didn’t work—
She would be Xiao Nuonuo’s backup plan! A guaranteed win-win.
“See you at school then. Bye.”
“See… you at school.” Lan Yinuo, her hands clasped in front of her chest, said goodbye shyly, then ran back to her room and returned with a box of chocolates.
They seemed homemade, a gift for Ruo Xiaoxi.
A memento of the first girl she had ever… been with, her first experience of such… pleasure.
So that’s why there was chocolate sauce on the balcony table last night. Xiao Nuonuo makes her own chocolates… Ruo Xiaoxi accepted the gift gratefully.
Leaving Xiao Nuonuo’s apartment complex, Ruo Xiaoxi walked towards the high-speed rail station, humming cheerfully, skipping along like a carefree kindergartner.
But just then, from behind a corner of the compound wall—
A head peeked out, watching her retreating figure.
“I finally found that new little sister. Just leaving a girl’s house? She looks happy.”
The figure, her eyes filled with curiosity, was followed by a tail, clearly not of this world, its tip shaped like a heart, swaying gently as if pondering a mystery.
