CHAPTER 1591: CHAPTER 1592: SNEAKING AROUND, WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?

The meeting between Cen Nong and Li Qiyi was very ordinary, just at a recruitment fair. Cen Nong hired Li Qiyi, and after a series of tests, she specially recruited Li Qiyi as a personal assistant.

For the next three years, Li Qiyi was very busy during the day, and once she was free at night, she would think of you, recalling everything from the past, even the scene when he was born.

Li Qiyi couldn’t figure out how she truly felt about you. Many times, she forced herself not to think, as it would only make her more miserable.

"Li Muyun, don’t run, I promise I won’t beat you to death!"

Li Qiyi’s thoughts were disrupted by the playful noise of Du Yanan. Turning her head, she found Du Yanan had somehow picked up a large pillow from the sofa and was relentlessly chasing you with it.

You really have enough time on your hands, as the two of you started playing around like children.

Eventually, Du Yanan got tired of chasing, and only then did you leisurely sit down, quickly peeling an apple with a knife, and said to Li Qiyi, "Sis, want to eat one?"

Li Qiyi shook her head with a smile, slowly sitting down, and said to Du Yanan, "Yanan, now that you’re the vice captain of the Criminal Police Team, why are you still behaving like a child?"

"Sis, you can’t blame me. This little sly one is too annoying, he’s definitely plotting revenge!" Du Yanan managed to catch her breath and looked at you, "Hey, little ghost, where do you get all that energy? You should know your elder sister here is a three-time champion!"

You never considered Du Yanan as your sister. Hearing her self-proclaimed title, you chose to ignore it and rolled your eyes, saying, "Women can never surpass men in terms of physical strength. In this regard, men and women can never be equal."

"Why, on what basis!?" Du Yanan glared at you fiercely. As a female criminal police officer and vice captain, although her family played a big role, it was inseparable from her own hard work.

Compared to you, Du Yanan was somewhat weaker, but you are abnormal and cannot be balanced using normal standards.

You yawned, ignoring Du Yanan’s expression that seemed as if she wanted to eat you.

"Brat, you better explain yourself."

You shrugged, smiling, "What’s there to explain? Aren’t societal issues like this quite common? Especially in bed, if you women want equality, go ahead and give your best, while us men can lie underneath whining."

"Go to hell!"

"Ouch!"

Du Yanan took advantage of the situation and caught you by surprise, throwing a large cushion at you just as you were finishing speaking.

Hit you right on the head!

After being hit, you could only rub your head, surrendering to the approaching Du Yanan ready to strike. The way you surrender is quite particular, known only to Du Yanan, Li Qiyi, and that person you prefer not to mention.

Your surrender gesture was simple: extend both hands, press the index and middle fingers onto the couch surface, bend the four fingers, and slightly lower your head. When lifting your head, the playful smile on your face vanished, replaced by a pitiful look. The originally mischievous eyes became clear, shimmering with light, melting Li Qiyi instantly.

Seeing you in such a stance, Du Yanan broke into laughter, reminding her of how you used to be years ago.

Back then, carefree and boundless, it was really nice.

Du Yanan laughed, seeing her sweet smile, you knew that this crazy girl would probably not go against you for now.

"Crazy girl" was the nickname you always used for Du Yanan. Since childhood, she played with the boys in the military mansion. Kids growing up in the military mansion were all rather wild and playful, and Du Yanan was no exception, doing things like climbing trees to steal bird eggs, digging up potatoes, and catching clams in the river.

As she grew older, although she seemed more mature and stable, her playful nature remained, especially when facing you. After all, you were her best playmate during her childhood, even if she often bullied you. But who says bullying isn’t just a cover for the exact opposite attitude?

All women love cleanliness. While you were watching TV in the living room, the two divine-level "sisters" were freshening up.

It’s said that the thing goddesses fear most is taking a bath, because once they wash up, they have to remove their makeup. Without makeup, a goddess is not much different from the frumpy woman next door who yells at her dear husband all day.

To some extent, you agree with this. After all, not everyone is a celebrity who can spend a lot of money on their face, doing skincare and beauty treatments daily to eliminate all blemishes, then use a bit of light makeup to present their best image.

However, a true goddess can withstand the flush of makeup remover.

Due to work, Li Qiyi wears a bit of light makeup to make her features sharper and her gaze more piercing, thus discouraging some from getting too close to her appearance-wise.

As for Du Yanan, this crazy girl never liked dolls since childhood and spent her teenage years training day and night in the troops. She was clueless about these things. It wasn’t until after leaving the troops, under the strong insistence of Wei Yingyue and Li Qiyi, that she finally started using BB cream for a bit of coverage.

Actually, it’s not that Du Yanan doesn’t love beauty, she just finds it troublesome. Her military life instilled simple and convenient habits. Making her sit at a vanity, applying layer after layer of skincare and makeup products on her face, would be worse than death for her.

"Huh—" you checked your phone and found it was already eight o’clock, yawning as you got up to return to your room to sleep.

Just then, the bedroom door opened. As you turned to say something to Li Qiyi, you were immediately startled!

Blurting out, "What evil is this!"

"Evil your ghost!" Du Yanan snapped directly.

The reason for your surprise was mainly because both women had a wet face mask on, and without taking a closer look when turning your head, you reflexively shouted.

This was the first time you saw Li Qiyi using a face mask, and as for Du Yanan, it must have been a first for her too, seeing how she continually looked at her reflection in the window.

"Hey, what were you up to skulking around just now?"

To avoid you teasing her, Du Yanan struck first.

When a guy often picks a fight with a girl, it usually means he likes or at least is fond of her.

To you, Du Yanan was a childhood friend, someone you knew and could talk to, but beyond that, you had no other thoughts.

However, you didn’t know why, but sometimes you just enjoyed teasing her, maybe simply because you were bullied as a child.

Looking at Du Yanan, you deliberately kept silent.

If you were to banter with her now, Du Yanan would instinctively continue the opposition, you attack I defend; however, your silence left Du Yanan puzzled. After all, since meeting that evening, you never stopped bickering.

"Hey, I’m talking to you?"

You shrugged, simply smiling, still saying nothing.
