My Love Rival and I Are 100% Compatible - Chapter 75

This meal completely exceeded Chi Yueshan’s budget. Even though she had received a hefty sum from Xi Yang, it was still difficult for her to save any money.

But her mood wasn’t too bad.

Maybe she had expected it, maybe it was the kiss.

Or maybe it was Xi Zhoumeng’s invitation.

She was so excited on the way there, even a little too excited, she kept asking Xi Zhoumeng questions.

“I heard your mother is a general in the Expeditionary Force, what do you usually talk about when you contact her?”

“Do you talk about the interstellar bandits you encounter?”

“Or are there some stray Insect Race?”

“What kind of mecha does she have?”

“Oh right, isn’t your big brother an Alpha? I heard him say before that he went to Guyun Academy, so does Big Brother Xi Li have his own mecha?”

“And…”

Chi Yueshan wasn’t really good at being pushy, partly because her social circle was pitifully small.

Xuan Ping wasn’t “strong” at all, although she was reliable in her studies, and she even liked to research some obscure data streams, but most of the time, Chi Yueshan felt like she had to protect her.

This was probably because of Chi Yueshan’s wandering life since she was a child, she didn’t feel like she needed to be protected.

Even facing Wen Xinghuo, she still had the thought that “even someone so powerful has vulnerable moments.”

But Xi Zhoumeng was like a gauze curtain floating in the window at night, with a hint of temptation and unknown mystery, making Chi Yueshan uncontrollably want to get closer.

She didn’t realize that she had gotten close to Xi Zhoumeng again.

Xi Zhoumeng didn’t remind her, she was actually a little annoyed.

It was like the effect of hundreds of ducks quacking at the same time.

She took a deep breath, she controlled the hover car to speed up while reaching out, her thumb pressed against Chi Yueshan’s brow, “Stay away from me.”

Chi Yueshan said “oh”, she quietly expressed her dissatisfaction: “You haven’t answered me yet.”

Night had already fallen, the splendor of the Upper World was like a spread of gilded silver, but Chi Yueshan didn’t have time to appreciate it.

Her eyes were moist as she looked at Xi Zhoumeng, as if dewdrops were falling on scattered gems.

Waiting for a ray of morning light to evaporate the dew.

“We don’t contact each other much, and we can’t always get in touch.”

Xi Zhoumeng answered blandly, she didn’t look at Chi Yueshan’s eyes.

She suddenly felt a little dissatisfied, why were this person’s eyes so dazzling, she was born into filth, she hated this kind of pure white that was untainted by dust.

“Isn’t that obvious?”

Chi Yueshan hummed, “But a general like Shen Yu is also very charming, and his rank is very high, your mother…”

Xi Zhoumeng: “They’re not in the same army.”

Chi Yueshan nodded like a pestle, she was pushed away but she leaned over again, “Have you seen your mother control a mecha?”

“Is her spiritual power S+?”

“Before, she was also in…”

Xi Zhoumeng: “Can you ask her yourself ?”

Her tone was clearly impatient, Chi Yueshan thought she was unhappy, she meekly said “oh”.

“How could I meet such a powerful Alpha general?”

Xi Zhoumeng thought: You’ve met the future heroes of the galaxy, my Alpha mother can’t compare.

But when she thought about how even if the author wrote until the end, Chi Yueshan would already be dead, there wouldn’t be any meeting or not meeting.

She should have had unlimited possibilities.

Xi Zhoumeng’s heart softened again: “What’s with this ‘can or can’t’, she’s rotating this year, she should be back for the New Year.”

Xi Li had arranged all of this, although he was the eldest son. Despite being the eldest son, he was essentially a housekeeper and big brother, treating his own Alpha mother like a diplomat. He’d already started setting up the venue.

Chi Yueshan didn’t look up, she lowered her head, she didn’t know when she had shrunk back.

She stared at her watch, Xi Zhoumeng knew it was her watch, she asked: “Where did you buy that watch, it’s so broken.”

After she finished speaking, she had a sudden inspiration: Could it be that this girl made it herself?

Chi Yueshan: “I made it myself.”

She pursed her lips, then took off her watch.

Xi Zhoumeng hadn’t paid much attention before, she realized that Chi Yueshan had been wearing this watch since the first time she saw her.

Although holocoms were very important, she hadn’t seen her take it off even when she was taking a bath.

It was like this in the academy’s bathhouse, even when they slept together, at the peak of sweat and entanglement, Chi Yueshan was still wearing this broken watch.

“You have this skill, why don’t you make a new one.”

Xi Zhoumeng raised her hand, the scorpion tail ring on her little finger gleamed with a mechanical coldness. Even though the material wasn’t top-notch, the texture was still first-class, and it was very high-end.

It didn’t match Xi Zhoumeng’s usual style, but it had a strange kind of fit.

It was like a glimpse into her cold and desolate heart.

“I made it a few years ago.”

Chi Yueshan touched the watch’s chipped face, “It’s ugly, but it works.”

I’m so useless, I even want to ask Xi Zhoumeng to help me find my Alpha mother.

But that’s not good.

Forget it.

Xi Zhoumeng belatedly realized that she might have touched a sore spot, she wouldn’t have been annoyed at all in the past.

But Chi Yueshan was different.

She rarely opened her mouth, she didn’t speak for a long time, then she finally finished organizing her thoughts, she calmly praised: “The craftsmen in the Mechanical City can’t make this at thirteen years old.”

Chi Yueshan laughed: “You can comfort people too?”

Xi Zhoumeng looked at the scenery outside, the night wind blew her long hair, the faint fragrance and her voice, which was a little scattered by the wind, blew onto Chi Yueshan’s face——

“Don’t flatter yourself.”

At the end of the year, Xi Li was working overtime like crazy, the interstellar civil service system was very imperfect, no matter what era it was, there were always old hands who made the young ones work.

Even though he was the top noble, Xi Li still had to act like a grandson when he was at work, facing the old noble seniors.

His salted fish style was completely different from Xi Chun’s salted fish style.

He was salty, but he was also smooth and tactful, he was good at socializing, he listened to gossip from all sides, and he live-streamed on the family group.

Usually, only Xi Chun, who felt sorry for him, would interact with him.

Xi Yang was too busy with her career to chat, Xi Zhoumeng, who was only going to school for show, directly blocked the group messages.

She completely ignored her brother, who mentioned her and even sent her a private message——

“There’s a ball at home tonight.”

It meant that Xi Zhoumeng could use her connections.

But Miss Xi’s communication number had too many messages, even her own brother wasn’t worthy of being pinned to the top, she didn’t know where he was relegated to. When the hover car landed on the lawn of the manor, Xi Zhoumeng realized that there were too many cars today.

Chi Yueshan exclaimed: “Your family is so extravagant, it’s fine to have one luxury car per person, but why are there so many limited editions?”

She couldn’t stop the sourness in her tone.

As soon as Xi Zhoumeng opened the car door, a maid came over, she looked at Xi Zhoumeng in surprise: “Miss Zhoumeng, why are you back tonight?”

Xi Zhoumeng glanced at the main building, whose exterior had even changed color, “Can’t I come back?”

She didn’t even guess: “Xi Li is throwing a party?”

The maid was a female Beta with brown hair, her black maid uniform was a stark contrast to her usual formal style, not to mention the male servants in the distance who were showing off their butts.

Chi Yueshan’s jaw almost dropped.

She looked at Xi Zhoumeng in shock, her eyes were condemning, as if Xi Zhoumeng had thrown a big feast behind her back.

Xi Zhoumeng: “What are you looking at me for?.”

Chi Yueshan: …

“Master invited a lot of people to the ball, the theme this time is ‘special attire’…”

The maid’s respect for Xi Zhoumeng always made Chi Yueshan feel like Xi Zhoumeng had done something heinous in the past.

“If you’re attending, I can prepare your…”

Xi Zhoumeng shook her head: “No need, she and I are just…”

The Xi family was ridiculously large, they even had an escalator to walk around inside, Chi Yueshan leaned on the railing, looking at the main building’s exaggerated colored lights, she asked: “Your brother… loves to play.”

Xi Zhoumeng was looking at her group chat, she casually asked: “If you want to play, I can accompany you.”

The escalator happened to pass by the window, Chi Yueshan just looked up and saw two women leaning against the window, affectionately hugging and kissing.

So exciting.

Chi Yueshan coughed: “I’m still young.”

Xi Zhoumeng sent Xi Li a scolding emoji while saying: “You’re still young, it’s fine.”

Chi Yueshan: “What are you talking about? I’m saying I can’t handle this kind of… intensity. It’s too…”

She quickly looked away, the deafening music couldn’t even cover the sound of the AO kissing on the second-floor balcony.

Is it true, can kissing be so loud?

Xi Zhoumeng laughed: “Your constitution is naturally…”

She was really talking about everything, “Why are you like this! Do you think I want to?”

She wasn’t really angry, this secret had been unknown to anyone since Zhou Fengqin died, Chi Yueshan’s words sounded like she was being coquettish.

Xi Zhoumeng: “I’m sorry.”

She was very serious, Chi Yueshan snorted: “It’s okay! I’m not that petty! Just don’t tell anyone.”

Xi Zhoumeng: “Who would I tell?”

The escalator reached the end, there was another towering castle with a pointed roof in front of them. She walked forward and said: “You have to find an Alpha who cherishes you, there’s nothing to be ashamed of about it.”

She said it frankly, but it was like she had stabbed Chi Yueshan with a knife.

Chi Yueshan originally thought that Xi Zhoumeng’s kiss was a seal of approval for their ambiguous atmosphere, it was the “kind of meaning” that hadn’t been declared yet.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly said this.

All her excitement from the night was as if it had been doused with cold water.

“I don’t want an Alpha.”

Chi Yueshan stood there, she looked at Xi Zhoumeng’s back and said.

She suddenly realized that she had a deep impression of Xi Zhoumeng’s back.

Most of the time she saw Xi Zhoumeng at the academy, it was like this, she was surrounded by people, she was unattainable from the back.

Now that they were alone, walking side by side, it was fleeting. She wouldn’t reach out like she did when she took her to the fashion show, and she wouldn’t pull her to the restaurant.

She was meticulous when she was nice, but she was so cold when she let go.

But it made my heart beat irregularly, like a fool.

Xi Zhoumeng hadn’t realized Chi Yueshan’s emotions, she was puzzled why the system had been like it was dead for the past few days.

If it stayed like this, she wouldn’t have to think about how to deal with it anymore.

…

Her love life could be said to be rich, but it could also be explained as barren.

Based on her age when she transmigrated, Xi Zhoumeng’s first half of life was an offering on a high platform, she was born at the peak. She enjoyed resources that ordinary people couldn’t enjoy, but she couldn’t get the love that ordinary people could get.

It didn’t come with any blessings.

In a way, she was a blank sheet of paper that hadn’t been processed.

It still had the bitter taste of raw juice, but all that was sprinkled on it was resentment and self-righteous dedication.

After the high platform collapsed, she started over, trying to experience the ups and downs of life.

But life can be reborn and start over, no one was willing to start over with her.

Adults find it difficult to be selfless in love, even if they like someone, they need something in return.

Xi Zhoumeng’s feedback was too cold, it even had a naive contempt.

“Is that better?”

“Are you okay now?”

“Isn’t this liking?”

“You want money, I have a lot, you want me to kiss you, I can do that, you want me to accompany you, I can do that, why are you looking at me with hurt eyes?”

Even her frowning expression of incomprehension was so beautiful, but it was beautiful like a sculpture.

Too cold, too cool, even being destroyed was hard.

Some people tried to soften her, but they all failed.

“Let’s break up.”

“You… you’re very beautiful, you’re very good to me. I was very scared at first, but Zhoumeng, do you know? Even when you hug me, you have no feelings.”

Xi Zhoumeng shook her head: “I’m being serious about being good to you, is that not good?”

“No, being good to someone doesn’t require ‘seriousness’.”

Her eyes were red, but she didn’t feel reluctant to leave Xi Zhoumeng, “It’s unconscious, look, you’re ‘trying’ when you hug me.”

“But you also have a problem, I always want you to tell everyone that you love me, you’ve said it before.”

“But even you, who I like so much, couldn’t make me happy when you said ‘I love you’ to me, I knew then that I wasn’t ‘that person’ to you.”

The ex was generous, she waved goodbye when they parted, she gave blessings for Xi Zhoumeng——

“I really want to see you completely fall for someone.”

“That person must be very difficult, but they will also be very happy.”

The colored lights of the sky train flickered in the sky, Xi Zhoumeng turned around, the wrinkles on the chest of her dress didn’t make her look disheveled.

She was still the aloof and untouchable goddess.

It was as if the fireworks of the human world couldn’t invade her already closed shell.

Even though she had learned about joy and sorrow, she tried to experience the ups and downs of life.

But it was too late.

She was beyond saving.

Even though Xi Zhoumeng had thought about taking Chi Yueshan away, just being together.

But Chi Yueshan was hers after all, she wanted her to have a smoother life than in the book.

How could I possibly make her feel loved and secure?

Besides, Chi Yueshan has to like me too.

…

“I’m sorry?”

Xi Zhoumeng turned her head to look at Chi Yueshan, a hint of apology was in her eyes, even her apology had a mechanical feel.

“I didn’t hear you clearly.”

Chi Yueshan was furious, she directly threw the ring that had just warmed up in her hand towards Xi Zhoumeng——

“I said I don’t want an Alpha! You’re the biggest scumbag in the universe!”
