219 [NSFW 18+] 4.43 – Our Upgrade – Dangerous Angels
Grinning from ear to ear at his compliment, Bing Shi kissed his cheek and rested her head on his shoulder. “At first, I thought of these bodies as borrowed, because that’s what they are. But then, we killed Lulu Tan, and I asked myself why do I even care, it’s not like I’m going to get punished. I had no idea of who she was, and I just wanted a body of my own that belonged to me,” said Bing Shi, thinking how her current body would be dead if she didn’t select it, snatching it as her own.
“She’s alive,” Xuan Mu chuckled.
“What?!” Bing Shi turned her head towards him, flashing her eyes in surprise. She never brought this matter up as she deemed it as a lesson learned. The next time Xuan Mu awakened, he wouldn’t kill her again.
“After healing the body, I fed you Fu Lian’s water from the pond, it didn’t take long before I could feel a pulse, but the person who woke up wasn’t you,” he nudged her head back on his shoulder, hiding his pained expression. He was thankful that Bing Shi revealed her QT identity, sparing him of so much agony. As the person that killed her, he would certainly go crazy, never forgiving himself. “Recalling how you mentioned that LuLu Tan’s soul would return after you leave, I planted a decoy and brought her to a safe place.”
“My hero ??,” Bing Shi squealed in delight, her arms and legs stretched out to hug him, the awkward atmosphere was forgotten. She was concerned about how it would give an unfavorable impression in front of the HQ, but this was more than good.
*knock-knock*
“Shh...” He placed his pointer at her lips, silencing her. He took in her lovely features and pulled up his pants.
*knock-knock*
“Change of plans. I’m not letting anybody see you in this state.” Leaning her against the wall carefully, he examined his masterpiece in between her legs before rolling her skirt down.
.....
*knock-knock*
“Make it quick,” Ru Quan spared no words as he unlocked the door in an irritated manner.
“...” Edan wanted to ask a few questions regarding the combat technique which he showed her this morning. Staring wide-eyed at the eligible man, his swollen lips, and messy hair added to his allure, his deadly aura was ready to execute anyone that dared to interrupt him. In the air, she could smell his muscular scent that somehow contained a very feminine fragrance, silky soft and clean. It couldn’t be more evident that he brought a woman inside. A prostitute? Edan almost teared up when she saw a hand wrapping around his chest, waving at her playfully. Only one person would wave at her that way, “L-leader?”
“Hi ??,” Bing Shi voiced out joyfully. Young people tended to fall in love too easily. Before Edan could develop deeper feelings, she crushed them seamlessly, making Edan give up on Ru Quan as she believed that it would only stand in Edan’s way.
“If it’s nothing important, leave it for tomorrow,” Ru Quan covered the mischievous hand around his chest and closed the door shut.
“...” Edan wandered back to her room, her mind short-circuiting. At one point, she thought that he discovered her gender as he used to do a bunch of stuff with a double-meaning, asking for her to remain back in the mansion with him, playing with her feelings as he pleased, teasing her from the day one, saying how she was too pretty to be a guy.
Edan wasn’t like most girls; she would often disguise herself as a man, she trained her vocals to be deeper, escaped the manor to ride a horse, chased robbers, or just wandered around the town. Sitting on her bed, she looked down at her chest that got flat from all the bindings, a sharp pain pierced through. ‘All men are the same. They all prefer delicate females over a tomboy like me.’
‘Who succumbed to whom?’ Edan asked herself, unable to imagine that those two would be together without any ulterior motives. They were probably just using each other for their benefits. Cooling down, the protective walls around her thickened, her guard raised. Was she just a tool to be used? She asked Tian Shi once. ‘It all comes to you. If you feel like a tool, then yes, you’re a tool. Instead of looking at everything negatively, find out how you can get the best out of it.’

“Why is there no bathroom attached to the room? I miss Sharkie. I miss our bathtub; I miss our toilet. I need toilet paper,” complained Bing Shi, squeezing the dirty water from her towel into a basin, she soaked it in a bucket of water and scrubbed his back. “I hate public baths and latrines. They are so dirtyyy.”
“Is your period coming?” asked Xuan Mu, listening to her endless complaints. They had to stop midway through their fourth round because of her menstrual cramps. She took some pain killers but he still turned around and rubbed her stomach to ease her pain.
“I didn’t finish,” Bing Shi hopped around and continued to wash his back, after making him spotlessly clean, she helped him to put on lotion, and started to tidy up the room, “I hate periods. They are painful and dirty. I hate them.”
“....Why don’t you ask Kuro to give you some ice cream?” Putting on his clothes, Ru Quan grabbed a rag, and helped her to wipe the desk and floor, except the bed, they somehow messed up the whole room. When done, they washed their hands and went to bed to watch a movie by using baby Shiro as a projector; occasionally, he would tilt his head for a kiss to get a taste of the ice cream.
“How can Kuro eat your popcorn without being charged?” he asked, patting the snake next to him, it was watching the movie together with them while chewing on the chocolate popcorn.
“That little lord is in charge of the storage,” Bing Shi laughed at the giggling snake, its mouth covered in chocolate.
