NOVEL NEXT 21: Meeting in Person? Meeting a Princess!
Ye Xing and her game friend essentially chatted while playing, eventually just leaving their characters idle to talk.
“By the way, so you have an older sister?”
“Yes, she’s a very reliable sister. Although she usually appears cold, she’s very gentle inside.”
“Is she the cold exterior, warm interior type? That sounds great.”
Ye Xing originally wanted to share her own situation, like living alone.
But now that she had become a young girl, and in two bodies no less, perhaps she could have some fun with it.
“I don’t have an older sister, but I have an adorable little sister. She’s soft when hugged and smells nice. She’s really wonderful!”
“…”
The other side was silent for a moment.
“Um… don’t you know how to describe girls? Even if it’s true, the way you describe it sounds perverted. If others heard, they’d definitely call the police.”
Ye Xing’s face immediately reddened, feeling embarrassed.
“Ugh… I’m sorry, I’m not very good at speaking.”
“Hmm~ But I can tell you really like your little sister.” The other person seemed to be holding back laughter.
“Of course.” She’s super cute, how could I not like myself?
“Looks like you have a sister complex. But I’m similar, I have a sister complex for my older sister.”
Ye Xing tilted her head, pondering deeply.
Sister complex?
That’s not it.
What do you call it when you’re obsessed with yourself?
Narcissism?
As they continued chatting, they moved on to another topic.
“I was thinking… could we meet in person? We’re in the same city and enjoy talking to each other. Wouldn’t it be nice to meet in reality too?” Ye Xing finally mustered the courage to ask directly.
After saying it, she was afraid of hearing a rejection, almost burying her head in the covers.
The other person was silent for a moment, then said, “I want to as well, but my body isn’t in a condition…”
“It’s alright, I can come to you.”
Ye Xing felt her cheeks heating up; saying embarrassing things was like this.
“Really?”
“Yes, really.”
At this point, there was no chance to back out.
Ye Xing could say this was the bravest decision she had ever made.
“I see. Then I’ll look forward to it.”
“Eh? You agree?”
“Yes, since it’s a friend’s request, it wouldn’t be nice to refuse. Besides… I want to meet you too, at least to leave no regrets.”
“That’s wonderful.”
Ye Xing was already getting excited, wanting to roll around on the bed and wrap herself up in the blanket like a young girl roll.
Then Ye Xing exchanged contact information with the other person, truly building a bridge of friendship.
After getting the other person’s address, they both logged off.
Ye Xing curled up on the bed, hugging her phone and rolling around, not even immediately going to open the door when Ye Lan returned home.
“Mmm~ Hehe.”
After a while, Ye Xing sat at the table looking at the map on her phone while enjoying Ye Lan’s feeding service, feeling quite pampered.
“Come to think of it, why does this place seem so familiar?”
Ye Xing and Ye Lan pressed their faces together, looking at the location on the phone, both lost in thought.
“Eh? Isn’t this position near the Night Watchers’ base?”
Ye Xing and Ye Lan were stunned.
Then Ye Lan stroked her chin, speculating: “Is there a possibility, I’m just saying maybe, not necessarily true, that our game friend might be a Night Watcher?”
Ye Xing shuddered: “Impossible, absolutely impossible. Besides, they said their body was very weak. How could they be a Night Watcher?”
That seemed right, so nevermind.
It was probably just a coincidence.
“Forget it, let’s continue eating.”
Ye Lan continued feeding Ye Xing one bite at a time.
Ye Xing scrolled through her phone with one hand, occasionally licking Ye Lan’s delicate fingers, feeling quite pleased with herself.
Originally just one person, this was called scientifically utilizing two bodies.
Then later they would bathe together, play games together, sleep together, cuddling each other. What a perfect day!
At this point, Ye Xing suddenly realized an issue.
“The agreed time is tomorrow, so which body should go to meet them?”
“It must be me~” Ye Lan raised her head with a smile.
Ye Lan already had the identity of a Night Watcher, so going there was most suitable. It was on her way anyway.
As for Ye Xing, she could continue being idle at home, then work hard to slack off for Ye Lan’s share too.
Yes, it’s decided!
…
The next day.
Night Watchers’ base.
Bai Tu went to her sister’s hospital room as usual, bringing her favorite food.
“Bai Yu, did something happy happen? You look very cheerful now.”
Bai Yu smiled slightly at Bai Tu: “Sister, I’m always happy.”
“Today is a bit different. I can tell.”
“I really can’t hide anything from you, sister.” Bai Yu sighed with feigned distress, then continued, “Actually, I’ve arranged to meet a friend offline. I gave them my address, which is here.”
“Friend?” Bai Tu was a bit confused. She didn’t remember Bai Yu having any friends she didn’t know about.
Bai Yu explained, “It’s a game friend I met online. We enjoy chatting, so we made plans to meet.”
Hearing Bai Yu say this, Bai Tu thought for a moment.
“Is that so? Then I’ll wait here for a while and meet this friend of yours.”
“Alright, I really can’t do anything about you.”
Bai Yu sighed helplessly.
She knew Bai Tu had work to do, but now she had put her work aside to wait here with her.
Thinking about it, it was clear.
She was simply a sister who didn’t feel comfortable leaving her younger sister alone with an unknown stranger.
But this was normal.
Isn’t this the kind of care that’s unique to older sisters?
Bai Tu was already starting to imagine scenarios.
She was a bit worried that Bai Yu was too naive and might be tricked by bad people, so she absolutely couldn’t let her be alone with a stranger.
She needed to thoroughly scrutinize this friend, then use her Night Watcher authority to find out all their information and check it carefully.
Only if there was no dark history would Bai Tu feel comfortable letting Bai Yu be friends with them.
As for whether this friend was an ordinary person, Bai Tu didn’t care.
Although this was a special medical facility managed by the Night Watchers’ organization, it didn’t restrict other ordinary people from coming.
For example, family members of Night Watchers could come for treatment, but they wouldn’t know the secrets of the Night Watchers.
Just like Bai Yu.
Ordinary people needed to complete the appropriate procedures to visit.
As long as the procedures were completed, there would be no problem.
…
Meanwhile.
Ye Lan arrived at the Night Watchers’ base as usual, then successfully reached the medical facility following the route.
Being a Night Watcher herself, she didn’t need to go through any particularly troublesome procedures, simply scanning her face for entry.
After looking at the relevant introduction to this medical facility, Ye Lan had pretty much guessed some things.
“Hmm~ I see, so my game friend is very likely to be a family member of a Night Watcher?”
Thinking this, Ye Lan sent a message to the other person.
[I’ve arrived. I’m coming to your place now.]
