Imaginary Enemy

[Frenemies / Turning a Straight Girl / Long-Game Seduction]

Wen Feixi was an excellent student, stunningly beautiful, elegant, and poised. She was the goddess of the whole school. Her narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes could make even a telephone pole swoon, and when she smiled, who knew how many moths would be drawn to the flame?

At the entire school, only Lu Chen Yu disliked her.

Lu Chen Yu was a girl with a strong sense of pride and a sensitive nature. In other people's eyes, she was always a good student, sweet-tempered and easygoing.

She ranked second in her year. Whenever she saw Wen Feixi, she would obediently call her "Sister," bring her water, and tie her shoelaces. On the surface, they always maintained a friendly, helpful relationship.

Only Lu Chen Yu knew how sick she was of Wen Feixi.

She hated how Wen Feixi always got the better of her.

When her pent-up anger finally reached its limit, Lu Chen Yu took a friend's advice and went to a gym.

There, she wrote Wen Feixi's name on a punching bag and struck it again and again, hitting it with all her might.

It was a great way to relieve stress, and Lu Chen Yu went to the gym to hit the bag every day.

Then one day, as she punched the bag with tears in her eyes, she suddenly sensed that it had gone unusually quiet.

Something felt wrong. She whirled around and saw Wen Feixi leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, her narrow phoenix eyes slightly narrowed as she watched.

Lu Chen Yu's legs went weak with fright.

What would Wen Feixi do to her?

She had so many admirers at school. She was the campus beauty and a member of the student council. What would happen to her from now on?

Wen Feixi looked at her and smiled. "If you don't want me to tell anyone about this, you'll have to agree to one condition."

She was always beautiful when she smiled, a dimple appearing in her left cheek. Yet her eyes were calm, like a deep pool, clear and captivating.

Lu Chen Yu asked through her tears, "What condition?"

Wen Feixi came closer and wrapped her arms around her.

Lu Chen Yu went rigid, not daring to move. She was scared.

Wen Feixi looked at the tears on her face and curved her lips into a smile.

"Be my girlfriend. Everything I own is yours, okay?"

When exactly had her relationship with Wen Feixi started to become something strange?

Lu Chen Yu couldn't figure it out, no matter how hard she tried.

Maybe it was the day she got drunk and, emboldened, told Wen Feixi, "I hate you."

Wen Feixi asked, "Why do you hate me?"

Lu Chen Yu said, "Because you take everything from me."

Wen Feixi replied, "Oh? You're always so obedient. So that's what you've been thinking."

Lu Chen Yu doubled down. "...Your legs aren't as nice as mine."

Wen Feixi chuckled softly. "Really? You haven't even taken a good look. How would you know?"

Lu Chen Yu said, "Your skin isn't as soft as mine."

Wen Feixi teased her with interest. "Have you touched it?"

Unable to win an argument with Wen Feixi, Lu Chen Yu grew furious with embarrassment, leaned in, and kissed her.

Wen Feixi fell silent.

It seemed that from then on, my archenemy started looking at me differently.
