Chapter 271: Polar Reversal
Miao Feng watched as Zhang Chi entered Long Yan's room, dumbfounded.
After the shock, he felt anger welling up inside him.
At first sight, he thought Long Yan was a proud and aloof person, but he didn't expect him to be so shameless in front of a pretty boy.
Not only did they openly embrace each other, but he even let him into his bedroom late at night.
He was furious!
Miao Feng's eyes turned red with anger.
Next door, Miao Yin was also filled with rage.
She naturally heard the sound of Zhang Chi leaving.
It was one thing for him to go find Long Yan alone, but how dare Long Yan stop her from eavesdropping!
Was she planning something bad?
Miao Yin's mood instantly soured at the thought. She had thought Long Yan was a decent person, but it turned out he was just like this!
In Miao Yin's imagination, they must have already started getting intimate next door.
But if they hadn't done anything, would she provoke Zhang Chi's displeasure by rashly interrupting them?
Miao Yin was caught in a dilemma for a moment, and finally, she turned her gaze to the wall.
Soundproofing charms could isolate the sound in a complete space, so as long as she made a hole in the wall, the soundproofing charm would naturally be broken.
But...
If Long Yan discovered a hole in the wall later, he might come and make fun of her.
It didn't matter, it wasn't a big deal.
Miao Yin quickly made up her mind and took out her dagger, stabbing it into the wall, quickly creating a hole.
At the same time, Miao Yin used her Divine Ability, Silence of All Sounds, so that no sound was emitted.
Who would have thought that she would use her Divine Ability just to eavesdrop on a corner of the wall?
Although her actions were a bit extreme, the effect was good.
After retracting her Divine Ability, Miao Yin could now hear the conversation next door.
"I'm sorry about Miao Yin," Zhang Chi's voice came through, apologizing, and it was an apology for her. Miao Yin immediately perked up her ears and listened carefully.
It turned out that Zhang Chi was explaining what happened in the morning when he allowed Miao Yin to feed him.
Of course, he wouldn't admit that he had feelings for Miao Yin, he only said that he suddenly thought of Tang Ruoling and got carried away for a moment.
Both of them felt complicated upon hearing this explanation, but what they had in common was a sour feeling in their hearts.
In the morning, Miao Yin thought Zhang Chi had fallen for her, but it turned out to be because of Tang Ruoling. Was she just a substitute?
Miao Yin also had her pride, and now she really wanted to rush over and ask Zhang Chi, "Don't you have a moment of infatuation for me?"
Long Yan also felt heartbroken, but she realized that she had no right to be angry. After all, Tang Ruoling was the one who came first. As Miao Yin said, didn't she take advantage of Tang Ruoling's absence and secretly encroach on her territory?
Now that Zhang Chi misses Tang Ruoling and Miao Yin took advantage of the opportunity, Long Yan couldn't say anything against Zhang Chi.
Tang Ruoling hasn't been missing for long, and in such a short time, Zhang Chi couldn't possibly forget about her.
It's only during the day that Tang Ruoling can see Zhang Chi. Otherwise, she would be puzzled by this scene.
Has she ever done such a thing for Zhang Chi?
No, she directly took the medicine herself.
Zhang Chi's explanation left Long Yan speechless.
But being speechless doesn't mean she has no thoughts. Thinking that Tang Ruoling has always had a place in Zhang Chi's heart, Long Yan naturally feels unwilling.
Long Yan believes in her own charm and is confident that she can make Zhang Chi fall in love with her. She must replace Tang Ruoling's position in Zhang Chi's heart!
Since she has already started competing, she might as well go all the way.
However, out of guilt towards Tang Ruoling, if one day Tang Ruoling returns, she won't stop Zhang Chi from reconciling with her. They can be called sisters.
With a direction for her battle in mind, Long Yan generously said, "If you can't let go of Miss Tang, I won't mind. Miss Tang has only gone to the secret realm, and there may not be a chance for her to come back in the future. If that day comes, I don't mind being her sister."
As Long Yan spoke, although her heart felt sour, she showed a generous smile.
Zhang Chi let out a deep sigh, his face showing a conflicted expression. He seemed to want to speak but hesitated, hesitated but wanted to speak.
The hesitation to speak was too obvious, which prompted Long Yan to ask, "What's on your mind? Just say it!"
"I'm afraid you'll get angry and upset if I say it. But if I don't say it, I feel sorry for you."
Long Yan couldn't help but be curious. What could it be?
Since Zhang Chi had come this far, she couldn't ignore it.
"Just say it, I won't get angry or upset."
Only then did Zhang Chi sigh and say, "At first, I let Miao Yin feed me because I thought of Tang Ruoling. But later on, I couldn't tell anymore if I was attracted to her."
"..."
"..."
Miao Yin next door finally felt a little more comfortable, but Long Yan froze completely.
Upon hearing this, her nose felt sour, as if something was about to come out of her eyes.
She was someone who cried easily, but this time, she tried hard to hold back her tears. She forced a bitter smile and suppressed the sourness in her nose as she said, "So... you're trying to tell me that you actually like Miao Yin?"
Well, it makes sense. It was my one-sided wish for you to be my partner. You just wanted to repay me.
Thinking that Miao Yin also said she was repaying a favor, Long Yan felt even more upset. Her chest felt heavy, and there was occasional stabbing pain inside.
"It's okay. As long as you make it clear to me, I won't force you. I can wish you both happiness."
Miao Yin next door almost burst out laughing. Ha, so I've won?
Long Yan is too weak, isn't she?
Hold it in, don't laugh.
Seeing Long Yan sad, Zhang Chi quickly comforted her, saying, "Sister, what do you mean? Don't you want to be my partner?"
"Since you like Miao Yin, why should I force you?"
"But, I'm not sure if I like Miao Yin, but I'm sure I like you!"
Long Yan: "......"
Miao Yin: "......"
Did the situation just reverse so quickly?
Long Yan was also stunned, not expecting Zhang Chi to suddenly confess.
Before, they had an ambiguous relationship, but they never explicitly expressed their feelings for each other.
Now, Zhang Chi clearly expressed his feelings for her, catching Long Yan off guard, and Miao Yin couldn't accept it either.
Did the situation just change so suddenly?
Long Yan was stunned for a while, finally reacted, and stared at Zhang Chi with wide eyes, angrily saying, "Are you saying you want both of us?"
Long Yan was sad before, but now she was angry.
She could accept that Zhang Chi still couldn't forget Tang Ruoling, but she couldn't accept that Zhang Chi liked both her and Miao Yin.
Wouldn't that make him a playboy?
Being questioned by Long Yan, Zhang Chi shook his head helplessly. He looked at Long Yan seriously and said, "Since I want to be your partner, I will naturally be wholeheartedly devoted to you. I said those things because I don't want to hide anything from you. Even if my true thoughts make you angry, I don't want to lie to you."
This...
Long Yan couldn't help but be astonished.
She realized that she had been thinking too negatively about Zhang Chi's intentions. While she suspected whether Zhang Chi truly wanted to be with her, Zhang Chi opened his heart to her without reservation.
Zhang Chi was sincere to her, while she had too many ulterior motives towards Zhang Chi.
At this moment, Long Yan couldn't help but feel ashamed.
At this moment, she fully understood Zhang Chi.
Miao Yin was indeed beautiful, and she was willing to go all out, seducing people like a fox. Zhang Chi was young after all, how could he resist such temptation?
It was normal to be moved.
What was truly rare was that he was willing to face it all and honestly confess his feelings. Even if he didn't say anything, no one could blame him.
He must truly care for me.
The sourness in Long Yan's heart disappeared, replaced by sweetness and self-reproach.
She had said such things just now, and she was afraid that she would hurt Zhang Chi's feelings.
"If you're still angry, I will continue to apologize, but if you don't want to be partners, please take it back!"
"Okay."
Long Yan quickly agreed, afraid that she would respond too slowly and Zhang Chi would think she was holding onto this point and retracting herself.
On the other side, Miao Yin was grinding her teeth. She thought she had won, but in the blink of an eye, she was defeated.
Clearly, Zhang Chi liked her!
He admitted it himself.
It was all because of Long Yan, this wicked woman. She was good at taking advantage of Zhang Chi's kindness. Her previous behavior, who's to say it wasn't a retreat to advance?
Clearly, she needed Zhang Chi's help, clearly she would bring danger to Zhang Chi, but she didn't mention any of that and only focused on being jealous.
She didn't truly love Zhang Chi. Such a wicked woman didn't deserve Zhang Chi's sincere heart.
She had to make Zhang Chi understand Long Yan's true nature. Only she truly cared for him!
At this moment, Miao Yin was full of fighting spirit, wishing she could tear Long Yan apart.
But Long Yan was thinking, maybe it would be better to let Zhang Chi accept Miao Yin.
She took her father's words to heart.
She could only give birth to one child in her life, and this child must have the surname Long.
This was an unchangeable fact, which made her feel guilty towards Zhang Chi.
Moreover, Zhang Chi did indeed have feelings for Miao Yin.
Although this made her a little unhappy, Zhang Chi was, after all, a normal man. It was understandable that he liked beautiful women. He was honest and brave enough to admit his mistakes. Of course, she chose to forgive him!
"If you really like Miao Yin, I..."
"I will talk to her tomorrow and make it clear. I will only treat her as a sister."
Before Long Yan could finish her sentence, Zhang Chi interrupted her.
His attitude was firm, which made Long Yan happy but also more conflicted.
She felt even more sorry for Zhang Chi. She should help Zhang Chi and Miao Yin be together, rather than forcing Zhang Chi to give up Miao Yin.
Zhang Chi was willing to do this because he loved her.
But love is mutual. Although she didn't want to share her lover with others, just like the saying "lover's heart,"
But, one must be realistic. She had to consider the practical issues for Zhang Chi.
However, let's not talk about this tonight. Let's arrange it later...
The two chatted for a while before Zhang Chi said goodbye and went back to his room to sleep.
Gu Youyou couldn't help but be curious and asked, "Since Long Yan was willing to compromise, why didn't you let her say it? Then you could have both of them and enjoy the best of both worlds."
As a Demon Race, she was also very gossipy.
Zhang Chi calmly said, "Because people have rebellious tendencies. The more I don't want it, the more they want to give it. The same goes for Miao Yin. The more I reject her, the more she pursues me. I know you may not understand it for now, but you can learn slowly."
After explaining, Zhang Chi went to cultivate on his own, leaving Gu Youyou to ponder on her own...
