Jing Yi looked at her with tear-filled eyes, "Mm... we... happen to be going the same way..."
"..."
He'd gotten carried away and spoken without thinking...
"Grasp the essence!"
"Mm..."
"Jing Yi..."
"Hmm?"
Jing Yi held the woman in his arms who had transformed from a cat to a tiger and back to a cat again, letting her carefully trace her fingers over his sweat-drenched body. Aside from when she was sick or injured, this woman only became this docile during moments like these.
"You messed up my clothes."
Jing Yi's forehead darkened, "You were the one who said to take off our clothes before continuing..."
Leng Yue pinched his stomach and pointed at the mess on the floor, "I meant the clothes I just folded!"
The pile of clothes that had been painstakingly packed into the bundle earlier had been returned to their original disarray by their bout of cloud and rain.
Jing Yi looked at the pomegranate-red skirt Leng Yue had thrown over his head, his lips curling into a smile, "I know how to save you some coffin money."
"Huh?"
Jing Yi grabbed one of Leng Yue's hands and placed it on his left chest, then grabbed her other hand and placed it on her left chest, "Do you have a way to make mine look like yours?"
Leng Yue's face darkened as she slapped him, "Bastard! What would I do if you became like this?!"
"...No, I mean... just to look like this."
Leng Yue's face darkened even more as she straddled Jing Yi and grabbed his neck, "You weren't satisfied with learning how to seduce women, now you want to pretend to be a woman and learn how to seduce men?!"
"...No, no..."
"If not, then why do you want to become... become like me?!"
"Your father..."
"You want to seduce my father too?!"
"...No, no... I want your father to not recognize me... during the court session..."
Leng Yue finally released Jing Yi's now-reddened neck and gave his flat chest a displeased glance, "With your foundation, making it look like mine isn't realistic... Don't bother with anything fancy on your chest, it would be troublesome if it fell off halfway. Just wear more layers in winter, no one will notice anyway. There are plenty of women with chests as flat as yours."
"...Then what should I change?"
Leng Yue rolled her eyes at him, wrapped herself in clothes, and rolled off the bed. She rummaged through the mess on the floor and threw several items at Jing Yi, including the long pomegranate-red skirt with white rabbit fur trim. "This skirt was bought too long, it should fit you properly... After you put it on, I'll pick out some jewelry for you and do your makeup. I guarantee you'll captivate everyone... except my father."
Jing Yi felt a subtle dark line forming on his forehead as he held up the indeed very long skirt, "If it was too long, why did you bring it?"
Leng Yue casually picked up the remaining clothes from the floor, "I didn't bring any clothes with me."
Jing Yi looked at the still half-full wardrobe, "Then these clothes..."
"I bought them along the way! It's not like this is the first day you've known I love buying clothes..."
"..."
As Jing Yi dressed himself, he silently calculated in his heart.
Next time he took on a case, he'd have to ask Wang Ye for a money-making assignment. Even though the old man was wealthy, he'd rather earn money himself to support his wife, his son, and that precious daughter who hadn't arrived yet...
Leng Yue stood with her arms crossed, watching Jing Yi slowly change clothes. Jing Yi was naturally delicate-looking, and wearing women's clothes actually suited him quite well. "Jing Yi... if any man takes the bait this time, you're not allowed to tell him you're a man for three years."
"Huh?""If you don't agree, I'll immediately drag you to my father's tent."
Jing Yi immediately put on an exaggerated performance, crossing his arms protectively over his chest. "No, no, no... I won't tell, I definitely won't tell!"
"Hmm... if no one shows interest in you, you should try to flirt with them."
"...Why?"
"I just want to see how good my makeup skills are... anyway, your natural features aren't too bad."
"Then... what if someone confesses their feelings to me?"
"Tell them you've been my person for twenty-two years already."
"...!"
