Chapter 29: The Defeated Mesugaki’s Incontinence ~
The mesugaki is incredibly aggressive, but at heart, she’s just an ordinary girl. In fact, her defense points are even lower than a regular girl’s. As she relishes the thrill of mocking others, she possesses defenses as fragile as paper. Ye Xiao, too, embodies all the attributes of a mesugaki.
“Xiao Xiao? What’s wrong?”
Ye Youran, standing beside Ye Xiao, also looked confused.
Ye Xiao’s shriek had startled her as well. She had been silently watching Ye Xiao for a while now, seeing her skillfully draw and color characters, giving Ye Youran renewed confidence in the game Ye Xiao planned to create.
The characters Ye Xiao designed were adorable, and those little sprite-like beings, apparently called “Phantom Beasts Paru”, were particularly eye-catching.
Since Ye Xiao was so focused, Ye Youran chose not to interrupt. Only when she saw Ye Xiao finally stop and stand up did she speak, ready to praise her younger sister. Her first instinct was to turn on the room lights to see what had happened.
“Sister… Don’t…”
Ye Xiao, now conscious of the dampness below, felt her eyes growing red with embarrassment. Her body was still trembling slightly, as the shadow had genuinely given her a fright.
Beneath her, a faint yellowish stain had dampened her white stockings and the hem of her dress. When Ye Youran turned on the light, she walked up to Ye Xiao, reaching out a hand to help her up. Seeing her sister’s offered hand, Ye Xiao’s defenses shattered entirely.
A mesugaki’s guard falls in an instant.
Ye Xiao, who’d been bold her entire life and had never shown weakness in front of anyone—not even before Gu Tingyuan, the chosen hero—had now wet herself out of fear at the silent approach of her ghostly sister, Ye Youran.
“How could this happen…”
Tears welled up in Ye Xiao’s eyes, and a deep sense of frustration and humiliation flooded her. Ye Youran, hugging her trembling sister tightly, stroked her head and comforted her, still oblivious to Ye Xiao’s accident.
“You ghoul! You idiot!!! Why don’t you make any noise when you walk, you clumsy sister?! Waaaah!!”
“You… stupid dumb old sister… wah…”
Ye Xiao’s breakdown only deepened under her sister’s gentle touch. She—Ye Xiao, the world’s most beautiful girl, 22 years old and still a student—had been so utterly humiliated. Here she was, on a typical afternoon, trying to work on her project, only to be reduced to this by her sneaky sister.
“This is mortifying…” Ye Xiao thought to herself. She hadn’t realized she was this scared, that a mere shadow could…
Meanwhile, Ye Youran, gently patting her sister’s shoulder, seemed to be calming her like one would a small child, all while piecing together what had happened. Then, when she noticed the stain on the floor, her expression grew odd.
Should she push away her ridiculously cowardly, 22 years old sister who had just wet herself?
If she’d pitied her sister moments ago, Ye Youran now felt equally repulsed. Sensing her sister’s shifting expression, Ye Xiao’s face flushed red. But she couldn’t let herself be blamed for wetting her pants. Otherwise, this incident could follow her for life, forever marking her as the 22 years old who couldn’t control her bladder.
In 50 years, her tombstone might still bear the shame of this day.
“It’s all your fault! All your fault! Stupid sister, why do you sneak around without a sound? If it weren’t for you sneaking up on me like that, I would never… never have…”
Ye Xiao’s voice trailed off, as even she realized the excuse was flimsy. After all, it wasn’t Ye Youran who’d wet her pants—it was Ye Xiao herself.
“Alright, alright! It’s all my fault. Is apologizing enough? After all, I wasn’t the one who wet myself, everything you say is absolutely right!”
Ye Youran’s lips curled as she barely managed to suppress a laugh, practically giving herself a stomachache.
Just then, Shen Yunchu, who had been preparing dinner and heard Ye Xiao’s shriek, opened her door. She entered to find Ye Xiao, red-faced, clinging to Ye Youran in embarrassment.
“Xiao Xiao, what happened? Are you alright?”
Seeing Shen Yunchu, Ye Xiao desperately hoped she wouldn’t learn about her accident. After all, the fewer people who knew, the better!
“Pfft… hahaha~~ Xiao Xiao… as grown up as she is, she actually got so scared she wet herself!”
The moment Shen Yunchu appeared, Ye Youran, who’d been stifling her laughter, couldn’t hold it in anymore and revealed everything. Shen Yunchu’s face immediately filled with disbelief, as if she couldn’t trust her own ears.
After all, Ye Xiao—Ye Xiao, who had always been the one in control, had actually wet herself?
If it were someone else, Ye Xiao would mock them endlessly, the signature bratty smirk plastered across her face. But now… the one who’d wet herself was Ye Xiao.
“Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Stupid big sister, you’re such an idiot!”
This house could no longer shelter her. It was winter, and feeling her drenched tights was utterly miserable. Cheeks puffed in frustration, Ye Xiao pushed Ye Youran away, leaped to her feet, and dashed to the bathroom.
Ten minutes later, Ye Xiao lay soaking in the bathtub, her flushed cheeks submerged in warm water as she reflected on the humiliating incident.
The world had lost a bit of its color.
Having Ye Youran see was bad enough, but Shen Yunchu too? She felt like dying. The last of her motivation to work on her game had drained away.
As she fumed over how to get back at her sister and wipe away her shame, the bathroom door opened. Ye Youran stepped in, wearing only a towel.
Ye Youran’s figure was impressive. Compared to Su Ruoxue, now married, Ye Youran held her own. As for Shen Yunchu, well, there was no contest. Just her formidable assets alone outmatched Shen Yunchu’s.
“Idiot sister! What do you want?”
Ye Xiao, still fuming, wasn’t the least bit polite. She wasn’t exactly thrilled to see her sister right now.
“C’mon, Xiao Xiao, don’t be mad. I know I was wrong! I just haven’t showered since I got home. It’s been so long since we’ve had a bath together—let’s take one and catch up!”
Ye Youran smiled as if the incident had never happened.
“Bloop bloop bloop…”
Ye Xiao submerged her face, sending up a stream of bubbles but didn’t refuse the idea.

Weakling mesugaki.
