Chapter 420: Experience It For Yourself

What the fuck did she just ask me?

It would be an understatement to say that Ye Guan was taken aback by what he had heard just now.

Cizhen merely blinked in the face of Ye Guan's astonishment. She put her right hand on his chest and slowly pushed him back down onto the bed.

"Don’t be shy. This is just a simple interrogation; pretend that I'm Cishu," Cizhen said gently.

Do you seriously want to do it like that?

Ye Guan’s expression froze.

Cizhen saw that Ye Guan looked a little wary, so she decided to change the question.

"How did you come to know Cishu?" she asked.

Ba Wan...

Ye Guan looked at Cizhen and sighed in relief at the harmless question.

"Tell me," Cizhen urged.

Ye Guan nodded slightly, and he started smiling as he reminisced about the days he had spent with Ba Wan. "We met in this strange village..."

He told her everything, including how got to know Ba Wan and how they had done something specific in the True God World. Cizhen’s eyes lit up upon hearing that, and Ye Guan started to hesitate about going into the details.

Cizhen quickly asked, "Was it Cishu who initiated it?"

Ye Guan nodded.

Cizhen muttered, "So Little Shu is dirtier than I thought."

Ye Guan was suddenly struck by a wave of fatigue, and his head swayed as he struggled to stay awake.

Cizhen followed up with another question. "What happened afterward?"

Ye Guan shook his head. "What happened afterward isn't child-friendly..."

"I’m not a child, so tell me."

"I can’t describe it."

Cizhen frowned. "You can’t describe it?"

"Yes, you have to experience it yourself to know it..." Ye Guan was completely drunk, which was why he said something so ridiculous. He wanted to dissuade her from asking more questions, as he wanted nothing more than to sleep.

Cizhen grabbed Ye Guan's shoulder to stop him from falling asleep and hurriedly asked, "You can't fall asleep yet! Hurry up and tell me the details about what happened between you and Cishu on that fateful day!"

Ye Guan felt a little helpless and exclaimed, "Do you really expect me to talk about something so intimate and private?!"

Cizhen said seriously, "I told you to pretend that I'm Cishu!"

Ye Guan rolled his eyes and looked away.

Cizhen grabbed his head and made him stare at her.

"I’ll let you sleep once you've told me everything!"

Ye Guan got a little annoyed. He grabbed Cizhen's waist and flipped over, making her lie down beneath him. "You’ll know it once you experience it for yourself!"

Before Cizhen could react, she felt Ye Guan's lips on her own.

A forced kiss!

Cizhen's hazel eyes widened, and she gripped the bed sheets tightly.

Cizhen’s soft and delicate lips made a fire rage in Ye Guan's heart, and a beastly desire threatened to consume him.

The room fell silent as Ye Guan became bolder and bolder. He even started to pry open Cizhen’s teeth with his tongue without realizing that Cizhen's shocked expression had turned icy.

She clenched her right fist, and the room suddenly became illusory.

"Ah!" Ye Guan exclaimed. His mind went blank upon seeing Cizhen beneath him, and he stared at her in disbelief.

Fuck. What did I just do?

Cizhen stared calmly at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan quickly ran to the bathroom. He turned on the tap and splashed cold water all over his face, which sobered him up.

What did I just do...?

Ye Guan couldn't believe what he had done. Clearly, alcohol was capable of making someone do awful things. Ye Guan stayed in the bathroom for quite a while.

When he eventually returned to the room, Cizhen was still lying on the bed.

At the sight, Ye Guan walked hesitantly to the bedside.

"S-s-sister Zhen..." he stammered.

Sister Zhen?

Cizhen was silent.

Ye Guan surreptitiously glanced at her and found that she was completely calm. She didn't seem furious, but for some reason, her calmness made Ye Guan even more nervous.

Cizhen got up and shouted, "Lie down!"

Ye Guan hesitated, but he still decided to sprawl out on the ground.

"I meant on the bed!" Cizhen added.

Ye Guan did not dare to move.

Cizhen calmly pointed out. "Weren’t you pretty daring just now?"

At that, Ye Guan immediately got up and sprawled out on the bed.

Since you’re not afraid, why should I be afraid?

Ye Guan decided to go for it!

"Sleep!"

However, Cizhen's response made Ye Guan feel like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him.

Sleep?

Ye Guan glanced sideways at her and saw that her eyes were closed.

Unfortunately, Ye Guan was no longer sleepy.

"Sister Zhen?" Ye Guan asked hesitantly.

Cizhen was quiet.

"Please don't be angry at me," Ye Guan said, "I-I'll tell you the details!"

Cizhen's eyes opened instantly, and her expression was that of excitement as she said, "Go on."

Ye Guan had no idea what to say.

"Hurry up and tell me!" Cizhen urged.

Ye Guan thought about it for a while before he started telling her every single detail of his fateful rendezvous with Cishu. Cizhen wrote down every single detail, and she would even ask questions. Some questions were so explicit that Ye Guan answered them while avoiding her gaze.

Meanwhile, Cizhen remained calm. It looked like she was genuinely carrying out artistic research without any ulterior motives or dirty thoughts.

As they chatted, they got closer and closer to each other. Cizhen eventually started leaning on Ye Guan's chest.

Ye Guan wanted to move, but Cizhen looked up at him and said, "Stop thinking about weird things; empty your mind of dirty thoughts!"

Ye Guan truly had no idea what to say.

How can I not have any dirty thoughts when you're so close to me?!

Cizhen saw Ye Guan's unnatural expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sister Zhen, I'm a normal... functional young man..."

"I know! So what?"

"And you're really beautiful."

"And?"

"Why don’t I sleep on the floor?"

"You really are a pervert."

"..."

"I remember hearing about a man of eminent virtue named Liu Xiahui. He lived here on this blue planet, and he was capable of remaining prim and proper even in the most tempting situations. Why can't you do the same?"

"He must have been suffering from a

physical

issue."

"

Physical issue

? You mean he couldn't get hard?"

"..."

"Okay, I'll stop teasing you! Let’s just continue. You and Cishu only did it once, but she ended up getting pregnant. Is that right?"

"Why don’t we change the topic? Let's talk about something less...

dirty.

"

"No!"

"..."

"Do you like Cishu?"

"Yes."

"What about Cijing?"

"I like her, too!"

"How about Cirou?"

"...I don’t have that kind of relationship with Lady Cirou."

"Cirou doesn't like you?"

"No, she doesn’t like me at all."

Cizhen cast a deep gaze upon Ye Guan, but she didn't say anything in the end.

"Sister Zhen, is it fine if I marry Cijing and Cishu at the same time? You're not going to object to it, are you?"

"Why would? As long as they like you, it’s fine."

"You’re such a great person, Sister Zhen..." Ye Guan replied, sounding moved. He knew how important Cizhen was to Cijing and Ba Wan. Ye Guan was bound to have a massive headache if she were to object to his marriage with the two.

Cizhen merely smiled.

Just then, Ye Guan recalled something and asked, "Sister Zhen, do you know where Cishu and Cirou are right now?"

"They’re at the Milky Way Academy."

"Really? They're at the Milky Way Academy?"

Cizhen nodded silently.

"Did you see them there?"

"Yes, but they didn't see me. They also have no idea where I am, and can you not tell them where I am once you're reunited with them?"

"Why not?"

Cizhen merely shook her head.

Ye Guan stared intently at Cizhen, and he had to admit to himself that she was extremely beautiful. Her features were perfect as if she was a living masterpiece.

"What are you looking at?" Cizhen asked.

Ye Guan sighed and replied, "Sister Zhen, you really are pretty."

"Who’s prettier? Me, Cishu, or Cijing?"

"They're just as pretty as you!"

"You have a smooth tongue, young man. Go to sleep!"

"I’ll sleep on the floor."

"Can’t you just get rid of all your dirty thoughts?"

Ye Guan fell silent.

My mind is devoid of dirty thoughts, but my body is different! This Mad Demon Bloodline of mine is extremely perverted, and it must be the reason behind my urges!

"Hurry up and go to sleep. As I said, don't overthink it."

"Okay," Ye Guan replied, nodding. He closed his eyes promptly, and a wave of fatigue inundated him soon afterward.

The room was silent once more.

Daybreak eventually arrived, and a ray of sunlight shone on Ye Guan's face through the window. Ye Guan opened his eyes and realized that his head felt a little heavy. He also felt something resting in his arms. He looked down and froze.

Cizhen was sleeping in his arms, and she had snuggled up to him!

How did she end up in my arms?

The cogs in Ye Guan's mind spurred into action, but before he could even recall anything, Cizhen stirred and opened her eyes. Ye Guan quickly closed his eyes and acted like he was sleeping.

Cizhen frowned upon realizing that she had unknowingly snuggled up to Ye Guan. She glanced at Ye Guan before slowly getting up and stretching lazily next to the bed. Afterward, she went to the kitchen and started to get busy.

Ye Guan hurriedly put the blanket aside and was relieved to find that he was still wearing his pants.

Cizhen walked into the room just then, carrying two bowls of noodles.

She walked to the nearby table and set the bowls down, saying, "Get up."

Ye Guan knew that he could no longer pretend that he was sleeping. He promptly got up and walked up to the table. He sat across from Cizhen and asked, "You cooked all these?"

Cizhen nodded with a smile. "Yes."

Ye Guan didn't stand on occasion and started eating with relish.

Cizhen stared at Ye Guan and asked, "How was your sleep?"

"It wasn’t too bad, but my head still hurts. It must have been the alcohol last night."

Cizhen stood up and left. She soon returned with a carton of milk. "Drink this. It'll make you feel better."

"Thank you, Sister Zhen," Ye Guan replied with a smile.

Cizhen smiled quietly in response.

Ye Guan finished his bowl of noodles and said, "I have to leave now, Sister Zhen."

"Sure."

"What about you?"

"I have to get started on my draft."

"We just met for the first time ever, but I already feel like you're treating me as if I were your..." Ye Guan trailed off and was quiet for a few moments before continuing. "I feel like you’re treating me as family."

"Cishu and Cijing like you, so you're family."

"Is that so?"

"Other than my three sisters, you're the only one qualified to call me

Sister

."

"May I visit you again?"

"Yes, you may visit me anytime you like," Cizhen said and gave him a few keys.

Ye Guan put it away without asking any questions and said, "I'm leaving now, Sister Zhen."

Ye Guan turned around to leave.

"Remember not to tell them that I’m here," Cizhen reminded.

Ye Guan froze and hesitated briefly before nodding. "All right."

Ye Guan continued walking away and eventually left the residence.

Left all alone, Cizhen tidied up the dining table and walked over to her desk.

She sat down in front of her desk and wrote down three words on an empty document:

the Final Draft.

She paused for a few moments before she wrote down two words on a separate piece of paper: Ye Guan.

Cizhen put down her pen and looked up at the sky beyond the window.

"Time is running out," she muttered.
