Chapter 139: Extraordinary Wisdom, the Mystery of the Heart Flow

The next day, early morning.

Tang Liuli woke up in a daze but quickly turned over in Chu Yuanqing’s bed, wanting to go back to deep sleep.

At the same time, the curtains in the room opened by themselves, and the virtual sunlight spread through the room like a perfect alarm clock, lighting up the girl’s beautiful face. Her long eyelashes fluttered, revealing her stunning green eyes.

The green-eyed cat sat up, looking confused, and said with a silly smile:

"Honey Qing in my dream was so assertive."

Tang Liuli pressed her lips together, remembering how she tossed and turned last night, as if walking on clouds, experiencing the dreamy feeling of visiting the City of the Sky. A tempting morning mist shimmered in her eyes, and the beauty mark at the corner of her eye felt hot with shyness, yet she still whispered with a mix of pride and dissatisfaction:

"Hmph, the me in my dream was so amazing, I was an unbeatable kissing expert."

"But it’s strange, I learned so many great little things, so why did I only dream about this little bit? Can’t Honey Qing be a bit more over the top?"

Tang Liuli thought this dream had a lot of benefits, but it felt a bit incomplete, like everything was ready but missing a crucial boost that would lead to a great victory, leaving her with a frustrating feeling when that boost didn’t come, making everything fall apart.

Ugh, can’t I have a more exciting dream?!

The green-eyed cat thought for a moment, pursed her lips in hesitation, but when she glanced at the time, she quickly pushed aside her moral thoughts and lay back on Chu Yuanqing’s bed. She breathed in the scent on the sheets, pondered for a moment, then defeated the devil in her heart, curled up her whole body, and went back to sleep.

Ten minutes later,

Tang Liuli got out of bed feeling fresh, but her legs gave way, and she barely took a few steps before she sat down on the floor with a bump, tears in her eyes from the pain. Her calves trembled as she tried to stand up, her cute face was serious as she comforted herself:

"I took a bath with Honey Qing yesterday, slept in Honey Qing’s bed, even dreamed of cuddling with Honey Qing, and did that in bed too. I won so much, and I did something bad, so it’s normal to face consequences."

"Tang Liuli, you need to have the understanding of a winner!"

The green-eyed cat said confidently, and after speaking, she felt her bottom didn’t hurt anymore. She perked up, full of energy, and decided to set new records today! She aimed to kiss Mother Qing on the cheek in real life and sleep next to Mother Qing in her dreams all day, achieving an unbeatable win-win situation!

After washing up, she changed into new clothes.

Tang Liuli nervously changed Chu Yuanqing’s sheets; she stuffed the old sheets into the smart washing machine, and after destroying the evidence, she pretended nothing happened as she walked back to the dining table.

Chu Yuanqing had already prepared breakfast.

Kirimi Miyuki calmly sipped her milk.

Chu Wang Shu bit into the crispy crust of her toast sandwich, her eyelids drooping, looking tired as if she had not slept well.

Tang Liuli sat next to her lovely daughter, with Chu Yuanqing on her other side. She quietly observed Little Sakura, who had been provoked by her yesterday but now seemed calm and carefree. Tang Liuli felt that not only was Little Sakura fierce and scary, but also very clever, making her feel a little intimidated.

How scary, this bad woman wouldn’t be looking for a chance to push her against the wall and take revenge, would she?

No, starting today, I will stay close to Little Shu and Mother Qing, never alone, to prevent being taken down!

Kirimi Miyuki had long forgotten the poor provocation of the green-eyed cat, and her eyes caught a glimpse of the beautiful girl with a single braided pigtail, who had a widow-like charm, honestly noticing her slightly swollen lips.

The pink blush in the girl’s eyes, like the gentle ripples of a lake in early spring, showed that she managed her expressions well. On the surface, she didn’t show her feelings, but inside, she was filled with shyness and secret joy, like a small fire slowly simmering emotions into a thick sweetness, releasing a honey-like flavor.

Honey Qing’s lips are swollen.

Hee hee, my lips are swollen too!

Kirimi Miyuki’s eyes sparkled with joy, and she seemed very happy. Her mind was filled with the sweetness of last night, and she absentmindedly ate her toast. As her tongue rolled, the taste and texture of the toast felt like Honey Qing bursting with floral fragrance, like fresh, juicy lips.

Little Sakura whispered in afterthought:

"It’s so delicious."

Chu Wang Shu finished half a glass of milk and felt much more energetic. She agreed, saying:

"Little Qing’s cooking is much better than the cafeteria’s."

The green-eyed cat glanced suspiciously at Kirimi Miyuki. It always felt that something was off and quietly wondered why this Sakura girl, who was so fierce yesterday, seemed so happy today.

This was definitely not an act. As a former child star and a self-proclaimed genius detective, she was 100% sure that Kirimi Miyuki was truly in a great mood, even unusually so!

Tang Liuli’s little face was serious. She felt it was necessary to figure out the reason for Kirimi Miyuki’s change in mood.

As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory. To keep the title of Miss Win-Win-Win, she had to understand her rival, gathering information about her strengths and weaknesses to strike at the right moment.

Yes, she is just like that, always preparing in advance, and she is a clever love expert!

The green-eyed cat happily ate toast while carefully thinking, her cheeks puffed up looking adorably animal-like.

Seeing this, Chu Yuanqing gently patted her head and said:

"Did Liuli have trouble sleeping yesterday?"

Tang Liuli quickly chewed and swallowed her toast, nervously looking away. If Mother Qing found out that she not only did bad things on her bed twice yesterday but also had a spring dream about kissing, she would surely get her face pinched!

"I slept very well last night, but I drooled a bit, so I changed your pillowcase and sheets to new ones and put them in the washing machine."

The green-eyed cat lied without showing any emotion; as someone who had been on the big screen before, her expression control was better than Kirimi Miyuki’s, making her a genius in the art of lying!

Chu Yuanqing believed her, and she even felt a little guilty; not only did she sleep on Liuli’s bed, but she also brought Miyuki to sleep with her.

Although it didn’t seem dirty, thinking back on it, it still felt a bit strange.

Well, simply put, the innocent little widow has had a revelation.

Chu Yuanqing first experienced Xie Qingxuan’s terrifying transformation, then yesterday she was held closely by Tang Liuli in the bath, and last night, Kirimi Miyuki confessed her feelings directly, so she was almost forced to realize things.

Now, she is no longer dull about same-sex love; she has realized that Little Liuli most likely still likes her.

Given this situation, kissing another girl on the other person’s bed becomes a very complicated matter.

Whether she accepts this relationship or not, from a universal perspective, doing this is truly terrible and makes her a really bad woman.

Therefore, Chu Yuanqing feels a bit guilty and uneasy; even her earlier thought of punishing the other person has completely vanished.

"That’s good."

Tang Liuli squinted her eyes, enjoying the warm feeling of the girl’s soft fingertips as they tangled in her hair. She felt a little dizzy and guilty for lying to such a wonderful Mother Qing, and quietly asked:

"What about Little Qing? How did she sleep last night?"

Chu Yuanqing felt a bit guilty as she took a sip of milk and said:

"Hmm, I slept very well."

Chu Wang Shu added some oil and vinegar to her salad, yawned sleepily and said:

"Liuli, Sister Miyuki came to find you yesterday, but when she saw Little Qing in bed, she went back. What did you two talk about?"

Kirimi Miyuki’s heart trembled at the words.

Chu Yuanqing’s small hand holding the cup trembled slightly.

Tang Liuli was first confused and then her mind raced with inspiration. Her green eyes suddenly became serious as she nervously glanced at the sakura girl sitting across from her, curling up like a frightened cat towards Chu Yuanqing.

Scary, too scary!

Mean, too mean!

This bad woman actually wants to attack me while I am asleep. How scary, how crazy, and how harsh her desire for revenge is!

Tang Liuli was extremely scared. When she was in the entertainment world, she had heard many terrible stories about fighting, like being tricked into drinking paint on a show, having glass fall on your face and ruin your looks, AI changing your face to spread rumors, hidden needles in talent shows, and poison in a thermos making someone lose their voice…

Although Kirimi Miyuki wasn’t as bad as being rotten, a woman who is blindly in love can still be very scary!

The green-eyed cat snuggled into Chu Yuanqing’s soft, round embrace, holding onto her waist, which still felt delicate even though she hadn’t taken off her apron. She looked very pitiful but didn’t want to seem too embarrassed, pretending to be tough, and said quietly with caution:

"Little Qing, this woman definitely wants to harm me!"

Kirimi Miyuki fell silent. She suddenly felt ashamed of being jealous of Tang Liuli yesterday. Even when the cat took advantage of Chu Yuanqing, she couldn’t feel even a little jealousy in her heart.

Chu Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t mind the soft flesh sticking to her. She gently patted Tang Liuli’s head and said:

"Alright, Liuli, Miyuki won’t bully you."

Tang Liuli was half in doubt. She thought Mother Qing was likely deceived. Kirimi Miyuki had pretended so well in the past. If she believed her too easily, the other person would definitely come back and attack her again.

Chu Yuanqing wrapped her hands around the other’s waist and gently touched their slender back, as if calming a startled and sensitive little animal. Chu Wang Shu, on the other side, found it amusing and patted Tang Liuli’s head.

The green-eyed cat felt a sense of shame.

How could she always hide in Honey Qing’s arms? Even being patted on the head for comfort by Little Moon, whom she considered junior, was just too embarrassing!

Tang Liuli ignored the fact that she had already made a mistake and decided to use her Sherlock-like wisdom. A spark of understanding ignited in her eyes, and the emotional bond instantly opened up, allowing her to sense the feelings of everyone present.

Little Sakura’s emotions were very complicated, mixed with confusion, shame, self-deprecation, relief, and a central feeling of guilt. These emotions stirred together into a messy blend, making it hard to find any trace of malice.

This made her feel at ease and filled her with endless courage.

I see, it’s because I know Honey Qing is next to me that I feel guilty, right?

The green-eyed cat suddenly realized. She sat back in her place confidently, with her back straight, and while adjusting her bangs, she secretly shot a glance at Kirimi Miyuki, starting to comfort herself with a sense of victory.

Hmph, it was just a strategic retreat, a small maneuver on her part. What a weak opponent! The house swap tactic I stumbled upon yesterday must have caused this Sakura girl a lot of trouble!

Tang Liuli self-hypnotized, feeling joyful in her heart. She not only bravely fought off her enemies but also received a comforting hug from Honey Qing. She felt like she had won so much, never expecting that even a simple meal could bring her such victory.

As the girl thought of this, the toast in her mouth seemed to smell wonderful. She quickly remembered the taste of tricking Chu Yuanqing into a kiss, and her heart swelled with pride.

Haha, that little Sakura girl will never know that feeling in her lifetime!

The meal ended in a strange yet subtle atmosphere.

Until the end, Kirimi Miyuki never explained what she wanted to discuss with Tang Liuli that night.

But because Tang Liuli had come up with a very reasonable explanation in her mind, Chu Wang Shu didn’t pay much attention. The only flaw left from last night’s secret was easily brushed aside.

After that, the four of them went to the practice room to start a day of training together.

At first, Tang Liuli hoped to find a chance to get closer, but it didn’t take long before the difficulty of "Pandora" was too high. As the main singer, she had to focus on breath control and was reluctantly caught up in the exhausting high-intensity training.

There was no way around it; after all, there was a chance of losing in a 4V4 Stage Battle.

If they lose, and the enemy takes either themselves or Mother Qing away, wouldn’t that mean they lose their chance to shine even before the battle starts?

To prevent such a tragedy, victory is the only solution!

At the same time, Tang Liuli realized why Honey Qing didn’t see her in a different light.

The reason is simple: Honey Qing is not a spectator. As an opponent, she cannot see her side’s performance on stage. Even if they won the last Stage Battle, she has no idea how much she contributed to that success.

In simple terms, this is a show put on by those who have failed.

But this time is different. Chu Yuanqing is her teammate. They will both stand on the same stage, and they are both partners in cooperation and rivals for the audience’s attention. No one understands each other’s abilities better than they do.

In other words, if she can bring the same impact as the stage performance of "Encounter With the World" this time, and even outshine that sakura girl’s "Heart Flow," Chu Yuanqing will notice her own shine!

So, training cannot be taken lightly; at the very least, she cannot do worse than Kirimi Miyuki.

This means that the green-eyed cat is no longer the lazy one from the preliminary round, completely transformed into an idol. To create the best performance, she has become an awe-inspiring contender.

On the other side, the lovely daughter, as an outsider, feels a lot of pressure in training.

In the team of four, she is the only one who has not mastered the "Heart Flow."

Although this dance is special, with everyone having equal parts, nearly all have leading sections, this is why she cannot be invisible like before; the audience might compare her with her three teammates.

It can be said that this relatively fair environment, for some people, removes the last cover, making it impossible to use the amount of assigned parts or whether they are the Carry Center as excuses for their inability.

Chu Wang Shu has a calm mindset; she already knows the gap between herself and her teammates.

If Kirimi Miyuki and Tang Liuli are in the stage of building their power to soar, then she is still in the phase of learning deeply and gaining experience.

Since everyone is at different stages and paces, feeling anxious is just a kind of arrogance.

"Little Shu is already very talented; I can see that you have always worked hard and taken every stage seriously."

"So, for now, forget about the rules of the program, forget about being eliminated, let go of these distracting thoughts, calm down, and focus on what you need to do now, and just walk at your own pace."

Chu Yuanqing’s comforting words by the bed flowed like a warm spring breeze, washing away her anxiety and giving her the courage to slow down.

So, she decided to ignore all distractions, focus only on the present, and compare only herself to herself; this became her current principle.

With this mindset during training, her efficiency unexpectedly improved greatly, and sometimes, while practicing a dance, she would feel her senses go into overdrive, creating the illusion that the world suddenly paused.

Kirimi Miyuki is very pure; her attitude towards the stage has always been the same. Even after kissing Chu Yuanqing in bed for over ten minutes last night, she could still push aside her chaotic thoughts and fully commit to her training.

After yesterday’s discovery, Chu Yuanqing began to ponder an important question.

That is—how to control[Heart Flow]?

In theory, this shouldn’t need thought; she has always practiced[Heart Flow].

The problem is that the[Heart Flow] she knows is just complete immersion in a universal sense, not the kind that changes the objective reality like Kirimi Miyuki, Tang Liuli, or Xie Qingxuan do, lacking the magical effect of amplifying stage presence and charm.

Chu Yuanqing didn’t think about this before because she didn’t want to be popular; now that her feelings have changed, she naturally must consider related questions.

The first conclusion we can draw is that the "Heart Flow" is indirectly connected to emotional experiences, personality traits, soul quality, and willpower.

At the center of it all is the "Cocoon of the Heart."

This is the ideal organ that allows young idols to consistently release their "Heart Flow."

In theory, as long as one can forge the "Cocoon of the Heart," releasing the "Heart Flow" should naturally follow.

However, this explanation, which generally applies to all witch recruits, feels somewhat out of place for Chu Yuanqing.

As a complete witch and a special Pure White Witch, the "Cocoon of the Heart" is an unnecessary and extra organ for her.

Theoretically speaking, she can release the "Heart Flow" without any threshold or limitations.

Given this situation, what exactly is she still lacking?

Chu Yuanqing pondered this question while training until evening.

It was only when she saw Kirimi Miyuki, tired yet filled with a genuine smile after finishing her dance, that she vaguely realized the simplest and most honest answer.

[Heart Flow]exists for the stage.

But strip away the foam and cast aside the shell.

Chu Yuanqing never saw herself as an idol.

How could someone like her explode with a unique [Heart Flow] on stage?

So… does she really need to try to be more confident and change her mindset to see herself as an idol to use [Heart Flow]?
