Chapter 388 - Past Wishes
"But … I saw it by accident, it's not my fault … …" Lin Yi said, feeling wronged. How could he be blamed for this?
"By accident? Who are you trying to fool? " Mengyao's eyes were wide open. "There's a lock on the chest, how could you have seen it if you hadn't opened it?"
"Wha?!" Lin Yi's eyes were wide open as well. "Chest? You're talking about a chest? "
"If it wasn't a chest, then what did you think it was?" Mengyao wasn't happy with Lin Yi's act.
"I thought … … You were talking about your thighs … …" Lin Yi said, sweating.
"Thighs?" Mengyao's face reddened. "Don't change the topic, it was an accident. I'm talking about why you broke the lock on the chest. Don't you know that it's immoral to peek at someone else's privacy? "
Had it been someone else, Mengyao would've thought that the lock might've been broken by someone else, but Lin Yi had pulled down the iron bars of the storeroom in the villa's backyard with ease, saving Yushu. Breaking a small lock was a piece of cake for Lin Yi.
It wasn't her thighs? As long as it wasn't! Lin Yi let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed that Mengyao wasn't going to pursue the matter any further, and that made Lin Yi feel relieved. As for the lock on the chest, Lin Yi didn't think much of it. "I didn't break the lock- it's been corroded for years, and the chest can be opened directly … …"
"Really?" Mengyao blinked at Lin Yi's explanation.
"Really … … You can go see for yourself if you don't believe me." Lin Yi smiled bitterly.
"Ah?" Mengyao panicked after listening to Lin Yi's explanation. Lin Yi had no reason to lie to her. After all, he only needed to go out and take a look to know the result.
Before Mengyao could say anything, Yushu ran out and came back not long later with a broken lock in her hand. "Yao Yao, look, it's really the lock that's corroded, it's not Shield Bro's doing. I told you before, Shield Bro isn't that kind of person!"
"Little Shu! Which side are you on? " Mengyao was a little pissed off at Yushu's words. "Why don't you hide it and destroy the evidence?"
"Oh? Should I throw it away now? "Yushu asked weakly.
Mengyao's face reddened when she realized that Lin Yi was still there. "I'm just saying, I'm just joking! Come on, let's go upstairs! "
"Ugh, okay … …" Yushu nodded and smiled at Lin Yi. Then, she went upstairs with Mengyao.
Lin Yi didn't know what was going on. Was the meeting over just like that? The Miss didn't want to cause trouble for him anymore? Lin Yi didn't think that things would end so easily. What a surprise!
"Shu, you've made me lose face! You brainless girl, tell me, did you help Lin Yi on purpose? " Mengyao was very furious- after all this, it was all her fault. She wanted to yell at Lin Yi, but couldn't bring herself to do so.
"No, I'm just telling the truth … …" Yushu said innocently. "Yao Yao, do you want me to lie? Didn't you always tell me that lying kids are bad … … "
"......" Mengyao waved her hand helplessly when Yushu changed the topic. "It's fine, let's go upstairs!"
"Okay, I want to see what wishes I wrote when I was young … … I forgot!" Yushu said excitedly as she ran upstairs.
"Which of these two sachets is yours?" Mengyao asked as she looked at the two pouches in her hands. She couldn't tell who belonged to whom. It was way too long ago, or else she would've remembered where she buried it.
"I don't know. Let's open one each. It's been a long time, anyway. We can see what wishes we made back then." Yushu said.
"Alright then … …" Mengyao nodded after some hesitation. She didn't want Yushu to find out about her secret- the girl wasn't very trustworthy. She'd probably spread the news to Lin Yi the moment she found out. That'd be so embarrassing.
But thinking about it, it was a long time ago, and she couldn't even remember what she'd written. Even if Lin Yi found out, it was just a childhood fantasy, and it didn't matter.
And so, Mengyao and Yushu each picked up a pouch and opened it. The pouches were sewn together with thin thread, and the two of them weren't in the mood to open them bit by bit. Yushu, who couldn't wait any longer, took out a pair of scissors and cut off the thread before opening the pouch.
"Hehe, I'll open it first and see whose it is!" Yushu said with a smile. The paper was a little yellowed, and the handwriting was old, but it was still very clear. "My wish is to live with Shu for the rest of my life, and be happy forever … …"
This was evidently Mengyao's handwriting, and Mengyao listened to Yushu's words in surprise. She didn't think that she'd been this close with Shu since they were kids.
"Yao Yao, I'm so touched … …" Yushu was a carefree person, but she couldn't help but feel touched when she read the contents of the paper. Her eyes reddened, and tears were about to fall.
"Hmph, now you know how good I am to you?" Mengyao took the scissors and opened the pouch in her hand- needless to say, this was Yushu's, "My wish is to marry Yao Yao, and be with her for the rest of my life … … Huh?!"
Mengyao's eyes widened after reading the contents of the paper. Yushu wanted to marry her? Was there something wrong with her? Was she a lesbian?
"Huh?" Yushu paused as well- she didn't think that her wish would be this powerful, "Yao Yao, could it be that we were a pair of lesbians back then? Why else would our wishes be the same? "
"Lesbians my ass!" Mengyao was speechless, "What's the same? Far from it! If we're a pair of lesbians, it's you, not me! I'm writing that I want to live with you, that we can live together as sisters! Look at what you wrote, you want to marry me, you're the one with the problem! "
