[Why Isn't He Angry When I Do This? X She Must Have Fallen for Me]
Jiang Shushui transmigrated into a book.
This time, she became a snake-like cannon-fodder character in a genius foil's story.
The male lead, her senior brother Pei Yiyan, was the pride of the Tengshe Dao, the first disciple of the Venerable Xuanfa Wanshi, and the story's saintly figure, as divine as an immortal and kindhearted as a bodhisattva.
Even if someone passing by kicked him, he would think he was in their way.
If she kept quiet and peacefully played a background character, she could surely throw her weight around using Pei Yiyan's name.
But in reality, she was bound to a System: Stepping Stone 2.0.
As the name suggests, she had to be a stumbling block on her senior brother's path to cultivation and love.
This included, but wasn't limited to, stealing swords, drugging people, shifting the blame, sending false messages, and using hidden weapons...
But every time, Pei Yiyan came up with an excuse for her and took the punishment in her place.
At last, one day, she completed all her stepping-stone missions. Jiang Shushui immediately dropped to her knees and apologized. "Senior Brother, I'm sorry. I was wrong! I'll volunteer to go to Liuchong Cliff and repent for the rest of my life."
To her surprise, Pei Yiyan rose with his hand on his sword and hooked a finger around the little bell at her waist. His gaze was knowing. "Junior Sister, I know you're entering your shedding period. Would you like me to help?"
Jiang Shushui: ???
Later, in a cave, Pei Yiyan gathered her restless snake tail in his arms. Desire simmered in his eyes as he kept asking whether she had ever loved him.
The bell rang softly through the cave.
Only then did she understand that this was why the stepping-stone missions had succeeded.
*
The Tengshe Dao values killing. Only those who have no desires and leave no blood on their swords can grasp its true meaning.
In a thousand years, Pei Yiyan was the only one.
But only he knew that the choice to kill or spare someone was made in a single thought, and his desires tormented him every moment.
Fortunately, Junior Sister understood him.
Thankfully, Junior Sister loved him.
(The snake who wandered in: orz, Senior Brother, what are you imagining!)
