DTBS – Chapter 103

Chapter 103: Inept Strategist

After lunch, Qin Qingshang put on her mask and hat before leaving with Tao Qiuyun. Each held one of the little cat's paws, a family of three heading out for the first time.

On the way to the parking lot, they ran into Mrs. Feng, who was walking her dog in the complex.

"Hello, Grandma Feng~" The little cat greeted her first.

"Oh, our Qinqin is so well-behaved! Qiuqiu, your daughter is really cute!" Mrs. Feng came forward to greet them, then looked at Qin Qingshang, who stood gracefully beside Tao Qiuyun.

The woman's eyes and brows were extremely similar to Tao Aiqin's. Seeing that she was also holding the little girl's hand, Mrs. Feng immediately understood and said to Tao Qiuyun with a smile, "This must be your wife, Qiuqiu?"

Qin Qingshang nodded and looked at Tao Qiuyun, "Qiuqiu, aren't you going to introduce us?"

Seeing that Qin Qingshang didn't avoid or change the subject, Tao Qiuyun was delighted. She smiled and said, "Auntie Feng, yes, she is my wife, Qing... dear, you can call her Auntie Feng, just like me."

Her face turned red from the word "dear." Even though she knew Tao Qiuyun said it to avoid revealing her identity, Qin Qingshang couldn't help but cheer a little in her heart.

"Are you three going out to play?" Mrs. Feng seemed quite interested and said to Tao Qiuyun, "I told you, Qiuqiu, you're too reserved. You should go out and have more fun. Now that you're married, you should spend more time with your daughter and wife..."

"We're not going out to play, I'm taking my wife to work," Tao Qiuyun said, still polite even when interrupting. "It's getting late, otherwise we'd definitely walk with you more, Auntie Feng."

"It's fine," Mrs. Feng smiled and waved goodbye to them. "We're in the same complex, after all. Let's keep in touch."

"Okay," Tao Qiuyun nodded, then lowered her head to rub the little cat's head. "Qinqin, say goodbye to Grandma Feng."

"Goodbye, Grandma Feng!" The little one waved.

Sitting in the passenger seat of the Bentayga, Qin Qingshang buckled her seatbelt while looking at Tao Qiuyun, who was doing the same. "Qiuqiu, is it really okay for you to drive this car to take me? Won't it be a bit... conspicuous?"

After all, the Bentley logo is quite eye-catching.

Tao Qiuyun's movement paused almost imperceptibly. Her expression was calm. "We'll go to Su Qingxiang's place first. I'll have her give me her Cayenne."

"Go to Su Qingxiang's place?" Qin Qingshang was puzzled. "Why not drive the gray car from before?"

Hearing this, Tao Qiuyun started the car and continued, "Because of that incident online, if I keep driving that gray car, I'm afraid it might affect you."

"By the way, Qingshang, can I never drive it again from now on?"

"You can," Qin Qingshang looked at the scenery outside the window. "Netizens' memories aren't actually that good."

"Just in case," Tao Qiuyun signaled to turn. "When I'm with you, I won't drive that car for now... After all, in the eyes of netizens, 'Qiu Yi' is your girlfriend right now, isn't she?"

"Then what is Tao Qiuyun to me?" Qin Qingshang turned her head to look at her, a playful smile on her face.

"Tao Qiuyun is your legal wife."

As soon as she said this, Qin Qingshang's heart skipped a beat. Then she saw her daughter's innocent eyes in the rearview mirror, and her face instantly turned red. She said shyly, "You... you're not allowed to be glib in front of our daughter! You'll corrupt Qinqin."

"Isn't that the truth?" Tao Qiuyun was puzzled. "I'm not being glib, and I wouldn't deliberately say nice things just to make you happy."

Qin Qingshang: ...

Thanks, I really feel that way! Right, sweetheart?

Tao Aiqin: ...

Help! With your one-point-added, one-point-subtracted performance, how did you manage to take my female lead mom onto the highway last night?!

After swapping the Bentley for her friend's Porsche, Su Qingxiang even offered to help look after Qinqin.

"You're acting strange." Tao Qiuyun raised an eyebrow slightly. When those sharp eyes focused on someone, it was hard for anyone to resist.

"Okay, I confess! I confess everything!" Su Qingxiang looked down at Tao Aiqin and said, "Here's the thing, Teacher Chang is having a bit of trouble. Because she feels bad always asking me for help, she doesn't want to trouble me anymore, so she explicitly refused my offer. So I'm planning to take Qinqin."

"Qinqin," she squatted down and stroked the little cat's head. "Later, will you do exactly as Auntie Xiang tells you? Just pretend it's a game. After it's done, Auntie Xiang will treat you to fries."

Tao Aiqin: "Good heavens! This yuri novel comes with a correction attribute, does it?"

System 030: "Do you want to help her?"

Tao Aiqin: "Help? Why wouldn't I help? I have no other hobbies in life, I just love watching two pretty sisters get close! I'm definitely helping with this."

"Auntie Xiang," the little cat beckoned her closer and whispered in her ear, "Qinqin wants wavy fries! Big ones! Lots and lots, don't tell Mom."

The little one thought her voice was quiet, but the adults actually heard everything.

Qin Qingshang couldn't help but laugh, leaning on Tao Qiuyun's shoulder, smiling happily. She simply bent down and poked her daughter's back. "Qinqin is doing a good deed. Good deeds should be rewarded. Mom allows Qinqin to eat fries."

"Mom is the best!" The little cat gave her a big kiss on the cheek.

"What about me?" Tao Qiuyun bent down, seemingly wanting a kiss too.

"Cat kiss transfer! Biu—!" The little cat pointed at Qin Qingshang, then bounced and pulled on Su Qingxiang's clothes. "Mom, go kiss the bad guy."

"Why am I the bad guy again?" Tao Qiuyun was puzzled.

"Hmph!" Tao Aiqin ignored her.

She heard everything last night through Big Bold! Sleeping in the study, sleeping in the study, good job! Looks like you'll only sleep in the study tonight too!

Seeing the little cat ignore her, Tao Qiuyun wasn't annoyed. She straightened up and looked at Qin Qingshang beside her, her expression gentle. "Qingshang, can you transfer Qinqin's kiss to me?"

"No." Qin Qingshang gave Su Qingxiang a few instructions and turned to leave, like a proud cat, flicking her tail, unwilling to pay attention to her.

She wouldn't kiss the person who only kissed but didn't take responsibility afterward! At least... she had to ignore her tonight to let her know she had a temper too!

"Qingshang, you look really good today. You must have rested well last night?" The makeup artist held a small brush. "I really envy your skin."

"Pretty well." Qin Qingshang smiled.

Although she was a bit unhappy last night, the overall experience was actually totally worth it! Especially...

Forget it, forget it, can't think about it anymore.

After Qin Qingshang finished her makeup, the makeup artist also packed up and left. Ming Siwen was leaning on the sofa, flipping through a magazine. Seeing that only the two of them were in the lounge, she spoke, "You came quite late today, that's not like you at all."

The cat looked left and right, confirmed no one else was there, walked to the sofa opposite her, and sat down. "Teacher Ming, I have something big to tell you."

"What is it?"

"Sit up straight first. What I'm about to say might be outrageous. I'm afraid you'll be so shocked you'll drop something."

"I'm an actress, professionally trained. You want to talk about you and CEO Tao, right? Go ahead. I know your situation. Don't worry, your little matters won't make me panic..."

"Tao Qiuyun gave me oral last night, and then I got water all over her face."

The cat's words were shocking.

Ming Siwen's eyes widened, her elbow slipped, and she fell onto the sofa with a "bang," the magazine sliding off. She completely ignored it, shocked. "Qingshang, are you... are you sure you weren't dreaming?" Tao Qiuyun... oral... No way, no way! Is this something she can hear for free?

"I'm serious," Qin Qingshang's face was slightly red. "And it was all her initiative. Really, I never thought of seducing her. We only moved in together yesterday, and this happened that very night. I was just sleeping normally, and she suddenly pounced on me."

She paused. "Actually, I'm telling you this because I want your help. Can you help me analyze her behavior?"

"Are you sure you were just sleeping?" Ming Siwen sat up straight, bent down to pick up the magazine from the floor, and asked suspiciously, "Did you really not do anything else to her? Were you wearing a revealing nightgown?"

That's not right. How could Tao Qiuyun, someone so pure and ascetic, possibly... She'd be more willing to believe Qin Qingshang was dreaming.

"I..." The cat blushed. "I was wearing proper pajamas, decent ones! I just saw she was asleep and couldn't resist leaning close to her ear and calling her name a couple of times, poking her face, and then she rolled over and pinned me down."

Seeing Qin Qingshang like this, Ming Siwen also realized that this matter... it seemed to be true!

She recalled her first meeting with Tao Qiuyun and their brief time together on the romance show...

Good heavens, if Qin Qingshang wasn't lying, then Tao Qiuyun was the real actress! How good was she at acting and enduring to be able to disguise herself as a refined beauty in front of everyone!

Speaking of which, didn't she and Qin Qingshang sleep in a tent together? It must have been hard on her. Being so fierce last night must be because she had been holding back before!

"Teacher Ming," Qin Qingshang reached out and waved her hand in front of her eyes. "Given her situation, do you think I don't need to deliberately seduce her anymore?"

She wasn't stupid. Naturally, she saw Tao Qiuyun's true nature last night! This person is secretly passionate! She pretends to be gentle but reveals her true self in bed, a big-tailed wolf! Serves her right for often being the wolf in Werewolf and always pretending to be a good person.

"She's already like that and you still want to seduce her?" Ming Siwen was shocked. "You came so late today, could it be because you were too wild with her last night?"

"It wasn't too wild," Qin Qingshang shook her head. "We only did it once. Afterward, she was very strange, absolutely refused to touch me, preferring to go for a night run to expend energy rather than use it on me."

This kept her up all night.

"Sounds like you're quite disappointed?" Ming Siwen said with a forced smile.

"Not very disappointed, just..." She held out her hand. "A little bit disappointed."

"Information was wrong," Ming Siwen looked at her. "CEO Tao isn't as cold as we thought. On the contrary, she... Anyway, I think you've reached this stage, it's just a period of adjustment, and you probably don't need my help anymore."

"Then analyze why she didn't want to touch me again last night, Teacher Ming, please!"

"Hmm..." Ming Siwen lowered her head in thought. "Didn't want a second time after the first?"

"Exactly," the cat lowered her head. "I threw myself into her arms and melted into a puddle, and she was completely unmoved."

"Are you showing off your affection in front of me?"

"No way, Teacher Ming, I'm asking for your advice, so I'm being detailed."

"I really can't analyze this," Ming Siwen shook her head but still offered her advice. "However, if I were you, facing this situation, I'd choose to ignore her for a while, make her actively seek intimacy, then play hard to get, give her a little taste, and finally reject her firmly to make her regret it, teach her a lesson, and finally ask for the reason. Everyone's happy."

The cat took out a notebook, took notes, and nodded seriously. "Okay, Teacher Ming, I understand."

Hmph! Tao Qiuyun! Just you wait!

From now on, I am the woman you cannot have!
