Still Have This Side – Chapter 47

You are very sweet.

“Xiaomin? Is Aunt at home with her?”

“Mm, the final exams are in a few days, so she’s staying home to read.”

Qiu Baiyu spoke while sitting down, placing her bag to one side.

Because of the exam, Qiu Zimin didn’t even mention wanting to go out with her auntie.

She needs to finish her final exams first, then play slowly during the summer vacation; this is her plan.

Upon hearing the words, Yi Wanyue, with a smile, pushed the blue and white special mixed drink on the table towards Qiu Baiyu: “Here, 37 Degrees Summer, your favorite signature special mixed drink.”

Qiu Baiyu took it, the smile spreading in her eyes.

Yi Wanyue always clearly remembered her preferences, without the slightest negligence.

Immediately after, her gaze swept over the tabletop, seeing the wine glass and also the cigarette extinguished in the ashtray.

“Did you smoke?” she asked with furrowed brows.

“Mm… mm.” Yi Wanyue answered very slowly, honestly but not so wanting to be honest.

Qiu Baiyu immediately rummaged through her memory memo in her mind, the more she recalled, the stranger it seemed: “Did something happen to make you too stressed? But you haven’t had any competitions recently.”

Yi Wanyue’s gentle gaze fell on her, unwilling to leave.

“It has nothing to do with competitions.”

“What happened?” Qiu Baiyu asked, her face full of concern.

Yi Wanyue liked her concerned appearance, as if she was placed in her heart.

Unfortunately, this is not something that can be honest.

At least not now.

Yi Wanyue picked up the wine on the table, her eyes again looking toward Qiu Baiyu.

“Do you remember that you once told me here, you have a secret, one that at that time you didn’t know how to tell me but would one day share with me?”

Qiu Baiyu said, she remembered.

At that time, she hoped for the appearance of someone similar and hoped this only friend could accept all of her.

But she wasn’t that brave yet, so she could only put the secret aside, again and again.

But never expected, this secret was actually pierced first by this friend.

Yi Wanyue drank a mouthful of wine, lightly curled the corner of her lips: “Now it’s my turn to have such a secret.”

At present, unable to speak directly, but eventually one day will tell her:

I like you.

It’s the kind of like that wants to become your partner.

Qiu Baiyu, after reacting, lightly laughed out loud.

She picked up the special mixed drink Yi Wanyue prepared for her.

“Whenever you want to tell me is fine, I will always be waiting.”

Yi Wanyue, hearing these words, said happily: “Is it okay to call you at midnight to tell you this matter?”

Qiu Baiyu, without hesitation: “Okay, why not? Sleep can be made up for, but the desire to confide, once gone, might just be gone.”

Yi Wanyue couldn’t help but be startled.

“Baiyu, you are really very good…”

She put down the wine glass, her eyes bright as she looked at Qiu Baiyu.

“Can you hug me?”

She began to unconsciously act pitiful, wanting more of her attention, more of her kindness.

At this moment, she wanted all these to belong only to her.

Qiu Baiyu couldn’t resist her acting spoiled, nor her showing weakness.

Too beautiful, and too pitiful.

Without saying a word, she stepped forward to hug her, gently patting her back, one pat after another, and said worriedly: “You seem to have encountered something very troubling.”

Yi Wanyue leaned on her shoulder, both hands hugging her waist, gently shook her head: “Actually, it’s not a troubling thing.”

Liking Qiu Baiyu, for her, is something worth being happy about.

This is Qiu Baiyu, the very good, very good Qiu Baiyu.

Being able to like her is the luckiest thing in the world.

What truly troubles her is not knowing what to do, not knowing if the person in front of her will refuse her.

Not pursuing then giving up feels too unwilling…

“Baiyu.”

Yi Wanyue sat up straight, meeting Qiu Baiyu’s eyes.

— Whether or not to pursue, it still needs Qiu Baiyu’s decision.

“Mm?”

Qiu Baiyu’s gaze was gentle, waiting for her next words.

“…”

Yi Wanyue closed her mouth again.

Wanting to ask, yet afraid of scaring her, afraid of being rejected, afraid of not even being able to be friends.

She seemed to understand the feeling Qiu Baiyu had at that time, holding a secret and not daring to tell her directly.

Seeing her wanting to speak but stopping, Qiu Baiyu asked: “What’s wrong?”

While speaking, she tucked her hair behind her ear, her fingers gently and softly touching her head: “If you have something on your mind, don’t hold it in. I can always share it with you.”

Yi Wanyue silently met her gaze, feeling the gentleness of her fingers lingering in her hair.

Qiu Baiyu always had many small comforting gestures, not excessive or ostentatious, everything just right.

Just right to make her sink, to make her unconsciously move a bit closer.

Suddenly, she had a very bold idea—

“Baiyu, I have something I’m very curious about, and I wonder if you’re curious too.”

“What?”

【Fizz fizz… fizz…】

The familiar sound of interference current came again.

This is the signal of their two-person world.

Qiu Baiyu watched Yi Wanyue without turning her eyes, all her curiosity stirred up.

Anything that could make Yi Wanyue put up her shield must be a big deal.

The next second, Yi Wanyue’s pleasant voice fell in her ear—

“Have you tasted a woman’s flavor? Do you want to try it?”

In a red dress like fire, the most beautiful woman in her heart sat beside her with an elegant smile, then leaned forward to whisper to her, her voice hooking people’s minds and swaying their flags.

“Try it with me.”

This move caught Qiu Baiyu completely unprepared, leaving her directly stunned in place.

The taste of a woman, try it once?

Try it with her… ah?!

Qiu Baiyu was dumbfounded.

She never expected that Yi Wanyue would have this side.

More beautiful, more alluring, a side far beyond her expectations—no wonder she needed to put up her shield!

Qiu Baiyu was stunned for quite a while before finding her voice: “When you say try it, do you mean…?”

She saw Yi Wanyue’s gaze slowly fall downward, straight and intense.

Then a finger very lightly touched her lips, the fingertip rubbing at her lip corner, with hidden desire and restraint.

Yi Wanyue’s gaze returned to her eyes.

“Is it okay?”

Three short words, yet they turned the blowing night wind into fire, igniting the atmosphere within the room inch by inch.

Subtle and ambiguous, overwhelming as they surged toward them.

Qiu Baiyu’s heart was wrapped in this moment, and it actually began to beat faster.

She did not immediately respond.

Yi Wanyue’s gaze was gentle, still waiting for an answer.

Refusal or permission.

She had already thought it through.

If Qiu Baiyu could allow her to cross this boundary to kiss her, she would then pursue her in her own way, tease her heart, and try to find that uncertain possibility.

If Qiu Baiyu refused, she would retreat back to her original position, honestly remaining friends.

She had already tried, and if Qiu Baiyu was unwilling, then that was it.

She must respect her thoughts and cannot impose her own feelings on her.

But she waited for a long time and still didn’t hear Qiu Baiyu’s voice.

She seemed to understand the answer.

Was she too abrupt after all…

“Sorry, I drank too much and scared you. Just pretend I never said those words.”

She lowered her eyes, slowly withdrawing her hand and expectant gaze, her heart suddenly filled with bitterness.

So this is what being rejected feels like…

Then her hand was held by someone.

Qiu Baiyu’s voice sounded in her ear: “I am also very curious.”

Yi Wanyue suddenly turned her head to look at her.

Qiu Baiyu saw the brightness return to Yi Wanyue’s eyes.

She still prefers seeing her this way, rather than her disappointed appearance.

Moreover, she is indeed very curious.

Not curious about what it feels like to try with a woman.

She is curious about what it feels like to try with Yi Wanyue.

She wants to kiss her.

Her words brought Yi Wanyue’s heart, fallen from the clouds, back to life.

Yi Wanyue carefully and gently held her hand, gazing into her eyes.

Their eyes met, and neither made the next move hastily.

They had to admit, at this moment, they were more nervous than ever before.

The person in front of them holds extraordinary significance, and neither of them wants to mess up this first kiss.

Qiu Baiyu sensed Yi Wanyue’s hand fall on her face, as gently as every previous touch, yet even gentler than any before.

And then, she leaned in for a kiss.

Soft touch, light as a dragonfly skimming water, yet with a hint of clumsiness.

But it was very surprising.

They realized for the first time just how soft each other’s lips were, like jelly.

(If you're not reading on littlepandatranslations.com, it means this has been stolen)

Their other hands were held together, nervous and still, and soon they discovered there was nothing to worry about.

No awkwardness, no rejection, acceptance was surprisingly good.

Even, they could try a bit more.

Yi Wanyue gently stroked Qiu Baiyu’s face, her voice low and gentle, like whispering a secret: “Is it okay?”

Can she ask her for more?

Will she push her away?

“Yes.”

Qiu Baiyu said.

She feels quite good now; she doesn’t mind having more actions—with Yi Wanyue.

Receiving permission, Yi Wanyue’s actions became much bolder immediately.

She kissed her, then bit her lip, and then gently and softly held it, like holding a treasure, full of affection.

She was feeling her.

Their two nervous hands gently hooked each other, the awkward tension gradually dispersing, finally entangled and falling into this moment.

The temperature inside the room got hotter and hotter, warmer and warmer.

The summer wind between their lips and breath was like a blazing flame, passionately wanting to burn them until they melted together.

Qiu Baiyu’s eyes were tightly closed, unconsciously cooperating, feeling.

A very wondrous and beautiful feeling.

The world was very quiet, and she seemed to hear her own heartbeat.

The more gentle Yi Wanyue was, the faster her heart beat, filled with both shame and expectation.

They were getting closer and closer, they were kissing… she and Yi Wanyue were kissing.

She never thought this could be something that made her so expectant and excited.

The night wind pushed Yi Wanyue’s fragrance towards her, making her head dizzy.

She actually felt like just continuing to kiss was also very good.

Doing anything with Yi Wanyue was also very good.

Yi Wanyue tasted a bit of sweetness between Qiu Baiyu’s lips and teeth.

A marvelous, novel, yet addictively sweet taste.

She couldn’t help but inch forward, using softness to please and soften defenses, then boldly invading, attempting to ask for more.

She seemed not to know what she was doing, yet somehow she did.

She wanted Qiu Baiyu, wanted her breath to be disrupted by her, and also wanted to be allowed more and more.

The buzzing sound continued, as they kissed amid the interference of electric current sounds, breaking through boundary after boundary, touching each other more intimately.

They couldn’t remember how the kiss finally ended.

They only remembered hearing each other’s disrupted breathing for the first time.

Qiu Baiyu lightly changed her breath, and she saw Yi Wanyue’s bright eyes looking at her, with a smile in her voice saying: “You are very sweet.”

“What?” Qiu Baiyu did not react.

“Tongue,” Yi Wanyue said very straightforwardly.

Qiu Baiyu: “…”

Her face was about to burn up.

Curiosity led them to try deeply, even too deeply, now recalling it, her face probably felt hot enough to fry an egg.

After a while, Qiu Baiyu finally found her voice, and barely calmly said: “Probably because of the drink…”

The special mix was sweet, and before the kiss, she drank it, so her tongue might still have the taste.

Yi Wanyue smiled and sat back: “Don’t know, maybe.”

She was like a satisfied child, her beautiful eyes full of happiness, unable to hide it.

Qiu Baiyu allowed her to approach.

She had the courage to run towards her.

Qiu Baiyu saw her so happy and suddenly didn’t feel so embarrassed.

At least this was an attempt that made them both very happy.

There was just one thing that wasn’t good.

Qiu Baiyu said: “Your… a bit bitter.”

After hearing Qiu Baiyu’s words, Yi Wanyue immediately looked at the glass ashtray on the table, where there was half a fruit-flavored cigarette she hadn’t finished smoking.

Burning tobacco produces a bitter taste, the reason couldn’t be more obvious, and she still messed up this kiss.

Guilt immediately filled her eyes.

If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have smoked…

Qiu Baiyu followed her gaze, instantly understood, and remembered that smoking is harmful to health, so she had to sternly say: “Wanyue, you should quit smoking.”

“Okay.”

Yi Wanyue immediately agreed.

She gently hooked Qiu Baiyu’s finger and, looking quite obedient, said: “I will certainly quit smoking properly in the future, okay?”

She doesn’t want the person she likes to remember their kiss as a bitter memory.

This was the first time Qiu Baiyu heard Yi Wanyue straightforwardly agree to quit smoking, and her eyes flashed with surprise.

She nodded with satisfaction, smiled, and said: “It’s good that you’re willing to quit smoking. I believe you can certainly do it.”

The health of family and friends is always her top priority.

Seeing this, Yi Wanyue suddenly had an idea.

(If you're not reading on littlepandatranslations.com, it means this has been stolen)

“But there is one favor I need you to help me with.”

Qiu Baiyu: “What favor?”

Yi Wanyue: “That is, when you have time, come help me test a bit.”

Qiu Baiyu: “Test what?”

Yi Wanyue: “Test whether smoking makes my tongue bitter.”

Hearing this, Qiu Baiyu was stunned.

Doesn’t that mean they would have to again—

Afraid that she would not agree, Yi Wanyue decisively acted, immediately placing Qiu Baiyu’s hand on her own face, making a pitiful expression.

“I think we should confirm again when I’m not smoking, to avoid a wrong conclusion, but if you don’t help me test, who else can I ask for help?

“Our Baiyu will be willing to help me, right?”

Qiu Baiyu: “…”

Here it comes again, her difficult-to-resist act of being cute, and it’s even more intense this time.

Even the Heavenly King Laozi couldn’t withstand this!

Yi Wanyue: “Or do you want me to find someone else? Aren’t we best friends…”

A very effective move, immediately touching Qiu Baiyu’s heart.

They are indeed best friends.

She indeed… doesn’t want her to find someone else.

“Alright,” Qiu Baiyu resignedly sighed, raising her hand to tap Yi Wanyue’s nose tip, “You must properly quit smoking.”

She also couldn’t explain this strange, awkward possessiveness, but she didn’t feel she did anything wrong.

She just wants to help Yi Wanyue quit smoking, just hopes her good friend stays healthy.

With her plan succeeding, Yi Wanyue curved her lips into a smile, her cheek gently rubbing against Qiu Baiyu’s palm, eyes bright and sparkling, like a beautiful fox.

“Mm, I will properly quit smoking.”
