You're Beautiful When You Smile - Chapter 88 Part 2

You’re Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 88 Part 2

Old Cat, who was sitting on the other side of Lu Sicheng, heard some rustling noise and turned over to ask: “What are you two doing?”

Tong Yao stretched her head higher than the arm of Lu Sicheng’s chair, her face was blank from nervousness. Lu Sicheng remained at ease: “Something dropped on the floor, she’s looking-- --Have you found it?”

Tong Yao: “I’ve found it.”

As she spoke, she stood up and dashed back to the stairs. She sat down next to her best friend and before Jinyang could ask a question, Tong Yao started talking: “I know what you are going to ask and I know I can keep silent after you ask and whatever I say will be used as evidence-- --That’s right, Xiao Cong is the kitten that jerk Xu Tailun and his fangirl had. Xu Tailun got banned and doesn’t feel like keeping the kitten. So our captain went over to the Qing Dynasty and asked for it. I don’t know whether he paid for the kitten or not. It happened last night. I’m the one who named it Xiao Cong, because it’s my kitten too. Then the problem is why one kitten has two owners and there’s only one answer, my captain and I are having an indescribable relationship.”

Jinyang: “?”

Tong Yao: “That’s all there is.”

Jinyang: “? ? ? ? ? What the heck? ? ? ?”

Tong Yao gritted her teeth: “That’s all there is.”

Jinyang: “What? ? What the heck? You and who? ! Chess-- --”

Tong Yao nervously covered Jinyang’s mouth before she finished yelling-- --Jinyang’s pupils enlarged then slightly shrunk. She turned to look at her uptight friend besides her. There was a light blush on Tong Yao’s fair skin and Tong Yao’s eyes were sparkling. Tong Yao lowered her voice and whispered into Jinyang’s ear: “Don’t yell. No one knows about it!”

“......” Jinyang pushed the hand over her mouth down and took a deep breath. The first thing she said after she calmed herself: “You’re really something, Mulan. You haven’t accomplished what you set out to do and damn, you’ve slept with our General Lu first.”

“..........................................Hush, hush, hush, not yet, not yet. I haven’t got the chance to sleep with him.”

“Huh, you even feel sorry about that? !

“Hush! ! !” Tong Yao shrunk her neck and widened her eyes: “Don’t talk so loud!”

“Oh.” Jinyang nodded: “So when are you going to apply to Beijing and Qinghua Universities?”[1]

Tong Yao: “......”

Jinyang: “Did you hear that? That’s the sound of you being slapped in the face.”

Tong Yao reached over to pinch her, Jinyang backed away, giggling all the while. The two of them playfully huddled into a ball. Tong Yao released Jinyang after a while and looked around before whispering like she was a thief: “Actually, I didn’t mean for it to happen this way. I really didn’t. But yesterday, somehow, this thing came up. He even used the kitten to trick me and I agreed because I didn’t hold my ground. Now it’s the trial period. Our captain said that the only way to examine the truth is through practice.”

“What truth?”

“That he’s a good man, not like Jian Yang and them……” As Tong Yao was saying it, she realized that it didn’t sound quite right. Her voice became quieter and she started to twist her fingers. After a short pause, she added: “Something like that.”

“...........................Can’t you two have a normal relationship like everyone else? Ok, you want to keep it a secret, but treating it like an experiment! Can you return it if you’re dissatisfied?”

“Three months trial period and five years warranty.”

“...................Alright, alright, then make good use of your trial period.” Jinyang emphasized the word “use” and grabbed her friend over giggling: “My cabbage finally learned to slowly move herself under a pig’s nose.”

“......”

“Good choice. At least he’s the king of pigs.” Jinyang sighed: “Unlike me, I just randomly picked a little pig from the pig pen next door. Aside from eating, sleeping, and irritating me, he only knows how to roll in the mud.”

“......”
