Chapter 32: The Ledger is Found Again — Desire, Like an Awakening Beast, Crept Out…
Every time Tu Si dove, she returned with a full load, and this time was no exception. A Jie had gone from initial shock to complete acceptance. He even suspected Tu Si was a mermaid—otherwise, how could she repeatedly bring back top-tier seafood that even he, a professional chef, rarely encountered?
It was after school, and Tu Si hurriedly finished a few roasted lobsters, her attention suddenly drawn to a girl on a skateboard. A Jie seemed to have anticipated this, pulling out a preservation bag like magic, swiftly packing the remaining king crab and lobster.
“Take this. If you want to go play, go. There’s more here if your friend (Wang Wei) shows up.”
Tu Si took the bag without a hint of guilt and ran after the skateboarding girl.
Tu Si was in a great mood today, perhaps because she knew her dance tuition was finally paid for and she could go to class with Wang Wei tomorrow. Perhaps it was because she had learned a new skill—skateboarding.
Or perhaps, it was simply because Gong Shayu had gotten off work exceptionally early. It was still bright outside, and Gong Shayu was actually sitting on her “bed” drinking wine?!
“Sister?” Tu Si’s eyes lit up, her voice filled with undisguised excitement. She risked the inevitable scolding for bringing cooked food home, offering the plastic bag in her hand like a treasure.
Gong Shayu turned her head, glancing at her indifferently.
Tu Si leaned in mysteriously. “Sister, you’re in luck today. Come, eat together.” Before Gong Shayu could respond, Tu Si had expertly placed the bag on the coffee table.
She turned to wash her hands, the water running loudly, then skillfully pulled out tableware, and finally, naturally, sat down right next to Gong Shayu. It was as if this were a common ritual for them.
By the time Gong Shayu intended to refuse, a piece of lobster, unsalted, was already right under her nose.
“Try it… it’s really delicious.” Tu Si looked at Gong Shayu expectantly, like a street vendor trying to sell seafood.
Gong Shayu had never eaten lobster in the shell and found herself momentarily wondering where to start.
“Here… eat my portion.” Tu Si generously offered a piece of shelled meat, then naturally added, “Sister, can you buy me a skateboard?”
Gong Shayu nearly choked on her red wine. “Cough, cough, shut up! Remember… when I’m eating, please keep your mouth closed.”
Tu Si made a zipping motion over her mouth, then couldn’t resist muttering, “But you’re clearly drinking right now…”
If Tu Si hadn’t brought up buying a skateboard, Gong Shayu might have given her the courtesy of a small taste.
Miss Gong tilted her head back and downed the remaining wine in her glass. Just as she was about to stand up, her peripheral vision casually swept over the seafood scattered on the table and was suddenly caught by a jarring splash of blue—the page tucked beneath the lobster shells and crab legs.
Tu Si followed her gaze and frantically tried to explain, “Ah… I was just using that to line it temporarily. After I eat, I… I’ll just…”
Before she finished speaking, Gong Shayu reached out and swept the shells and crab remains off the blue paper. They scattered across the table with a “crash.” Written clearly on the blue page were the characters “Mark.”
Gong Shayu picked up the corner of the page with her fingertips and slowly unfolded the title page, treating it like a dangerous object.
Tu Si suddenly remembered Fang Yu’s warning: “Boss Gong has an extreme aversion to dirt. It’s best not to eat at home.” The room was now filled with the sweet, fishy scent of seafood.
This little notebook’s main purpose had been as a transfer station for her food scraps. She thought Gong Shayu was gathering evidence of her secretly eating at home to punish her by not buying the skateboard or other things.
“I have never brought food home before today,” Tu Si argued, decisively choosing her own interests over honesty.
Gong Shayu didn’t reply, didn’t even register what she was saying. She looked at the shocking numbers one by one in the ledger, as if seeing a swarm of termites fiercely gnawing away at a riverbank.
Tu Si rambled incoherently for a long time. Seeing Gong Shayu’s expression grow increasingly solemn, her speed in turning pages getting faster and faster, with no intention of holding her accountable, the Dodder Flower felt parched and eyed the red wine on the table.
In fact, she had liked the color of the wine since she walked in. It resembled the bl00d flowing in the person before her. Could it also bring similar power?
Lost in thought, Tu Si picked up the decanter and secretly took a sip. Sour with a hint of astringency, astringent with a touch of sweetness. Not good!
But why does Gong Shayu like to drink it?
Tu Si didn’t believe it and took another large sip. This time, the sweetness outweighed the sourness.
One sip…
Two sips…
Three sips…
One more sip…
Huh! Why are there two Gong Shayus?
Tu Si lifted her head forcefully, now more certain than ever that Gong Shayu was also some kind of spirit. She reached out to touch her face, trying to confirm through touch: “Hey! What kind of fellow Daoist are you?”
Gong Shayu was startled by the sudden voice and the inexplicable question. Before her mind could catch up, her face was cradled by a pair of soft, boneless, yet strangely strong hands…
“You—”
“You shut up, shush!” Tu Si interrupted Gong Shayu.
“!!!” Miss Gong was yelled at for the first time in her life, instantly stunned for three seconds.
“Wife, let me taste what your beautiful mouth tastes like? Sister…” Tu Si didn’t know why, but a incredibly powerful force was awakening within her, unrelated to spiritual energy. In this moment, she felt like she could do anything and dared to do anything.
So she asked the question she had thought of many times.
The Dodder Flower Spirit, having fought off a heavenly tribulation, was emboldened by the wine to the point where she could command Gong Shayu.
Gong Shayu’s mindset was exceptionally complicated today. The entire layoff plan was under her control, and even if a protest or two occurred, she could handle it calmly.
But… since the ledger went missing, everything had become uncontrollable. She had intended to come back early to organize her thoughts. Who would have thought that the ledger, which she had failed to find for a week, was right here in her home, being used as a trash mat by this brat? Before she could even ask the barrage of questions, her mouth was blocked by that soft touch.
Tu Si was clearly drunk…
But Gong Shayu was not.
The unique fragrance of flora, mixed with the mellow aroma of red wine, made Gong Shayu doubt her alcohol tolerance for the first time. It was only a small glass; why was she feeling so dizzy?
She heard the sound of something intangible cracking inside her, and she physically felt it: Desire, like an awakening beast, crept out of that crack inch by inch.
Their lips met, a brief brush before parting. Tu Si’s hands instantly lost strength, and she stumbled, falling into Gong Shayu’s embrace.
Gong Shayu’s expression shifted several times. She opened her arms, allowing Tu Si’s upper body to be completely trapped between her two arms, their bodies almost overlapping.
She seriously suspected Tu Si had no bones. The seemingly delicate body actually had a lot of substance, especially…
Gong Shayu swallowed hard, freeing one hand to fiercely grip Tu Si’s chin, forcing the other woman to look at her. Their faces were very close. Their breaths intertwined, and Gong Shayu’s breathing grew hot. “I’ll teach you how to taste!”
Their lips slowly pressed together. A cool tongue tentatively explored a warm interior, and they greedily inhaled each other’s scent.
Tu Si felt short of breath, her brain momentarily lacking oxygen. The physical pleasure made her forget to absorb the spiritual energy. The Dodder Flower’s nature to attach itself caused her body to wrap around Gong Shayu like a vine.
The two kissed passionately, their minds in chaos. Tu Si allowed her body to stretch out. Her withered spiritual consciousness rapidly swelled. A force broke through its shackles, quietly and frantically growing amidst the shortness of breath.
Gong Shayu felt the person in her arms growing hotter. Another voice in her mind sounded an alarm. The five clauses in the marriage agreement weren’t just for Tu Si; they were more for herself.
Do not love!!!
No love meant no weakness. Even physical surrender was unacceptable! Gong Shayu had known since childhood that the difficult path she had to walk was no less dangerous than walking a tightrope on a cliff. There was no reason, no need, to bring a fatal weakness along with her.
The floral scent in the air intensified. Gong Shayu opened her eyes and forcefully pushed Tu Si away. In a daze, the other woman seemed to be wearing a small yellow flower cap on her head?
“…”
The Dodder Flower, deeply immersed, was abruptly pushed away and was extremely displeased. She wanted more…
“What is on top of your head?” Gong Shayu asked, her voice hoarse.
On top of her head? Hair? Vine? Flower? Her main body!!!
Tu Si instantly sobered up. She couldn’t let humans know who she was—this was a warning as important as the one regarding the bl00d contract host.
“Ah, it’s a small flower cap. Do you want one?” Tu Si asked disingenuously, secretly retracting her main body, trying to make the “cap” look as sparse as possible.
Gong Shayu recalled seeing a similar flower that night. She raised her hand, wanting to confirm it.
In a panic, Tu Si kissed Gong Shayu’s lips again.
“Sister, kiss me again…” Tu Si murmured vaguely.
Gong Shayu’s raised hand finally rested on Tu Si’s back.
Do not love… No love. As long as the heart doesn’t love, merely not disliking the physical contact doesn’t count as a weakness, right!
Gong Shayu confidently thought. Her stress had been too high recently. This might be a good way to release tension.
The kiss didn’t last long. When Tu Si was almost finished retracting her main body, she actively pulled away from Gong Shayu’s lips. The Dodder Flower clearly felt the changes in her body. She worried that if this continued, she would be unable to stop releasing her main vine, scaring Gong Shayu to death and cutting off her nutrient supply.
“Sister…”
“Shut up!” Gong Shayu was a little exasperated, but then she thought, the only consolation was that Tu Si was drunk and had actively seduced her. She could still punish her tomorrow.
“Sister…” Tu Si seemed unable to resist speaking again: “Are you drunk? Where is there a flower cap?”
Gong Shayu: “…!!!???”
Seeing Tu Si’s slightly curly, vine-like hair, coupled with her own unusual behavior, she genuinely had the illusion that she was the one who was drunk.
Miss Gong gave a technical cough and uncomfortably changed the subject. “Where did you get this notebook?”
Tu Si saw her Sugar Daddy let the flower cap slide, and beamed. “Under the mango tree in the plaza.”
“Who told you?” Gong Shayu was startled.
Tu Si thought she couldn’t possibly tell her it was the mango tree, but she had already told many lies since coming to the human world, which was detrimental to her cultivation.
“It was Ma Yi,” Tu Si continued without hesitation. A few more lies shouldn’t matter. Besides, she did meet Ma Yi at that location.
After this thought, she added smugly, “Ma Yi is the one I’m going to dance with.”
“She told me that there was treasure under the mango tree, so I went and dug it up. I didn’t expect it to be just a lousy box and a lousy notebook. I’m going to go settle the score with her tomorrow! Hmph!”
Tu Si realized that as long as she swapped the mango tree’s name with Ma Yi’s, her lie sounded completely natural.
Gong Shayu, however, felt as if an invisible force was secretly manipulating everything. For now, it seemed to be helping her…
