Chapter 925: Chapter 929: And Then There Were None (Part 1)
The brilliant sunlight filtered through the panoramic glass window and spilled onto the twisted bundle on the big bed.
Once again, the bundle on the bed slowly reached out a white jade arm.
"Mmm..." A delicate female voice came from within.
Soon after, the bedcover was lifted, and Su Li rolled around on the bed several times before reluctantly sitting up, squinting as she began to examine her surroundings.
The air carried a salty wet aroma, along with the sound of seagulls outside.
Getting out of bed, Su Li walked barefoot to the panoramic window, where a vast blue ocean was displayed before her eyes.
Her room had a superb view, wide and far-reaching. Looking down, she could see the figures of young men and women frolicking on the deck through the glass.
Su Li closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the entirety of the ship’s appearance had been imprinted in her mind.
She held her head, feeling very troubled.
The owner of the body she had descended into had truly presented her with a massive difficulty.
The original owner had inadvertently intruded into her own Chaotic Space. It seemed as though her entire soul body was bewildered and ignorant, muddled and not like normal at all.
But before she could investigate, she was swept into this small world.
Su Li couldn’t help but speculate; perhaps the other party possessed some Divine Weapons or Magic Artifact without realizing it, otherwise, she would never end up so passive.
The original owner’s soul body was so chaotic that Su Li naturally couldn’t expect the other party to provide her with any information.
And now, even the memories that this body should have are completely blank and devoid of anything.
Aside from knowing the gender of this body as female, and that she is currently on a luxury cruise ship for some reason, Su Li knows nothing else.
This filled Su Li with a slight sense of excitement, like a dull life finally gaining a hint of color.
She couldn’t help but recall her first loss of memory, beginning to be caught in the cycle of small worlds, a situation remarkably similar to the present.
"Knock knock knock..." Su Li heard the sound of knocking at the door.
Before she could respond, the door was turned open from outside.
A couple, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, walked in together, the man holding the room key card in his palm, clearly the one who had opened the door with it.
Su Li frowned, her gaze tightly fixed on the man’s large hand... holding the key card.
It was now that she realized she had overlooked something earlier.
Evidence of another person being active was present in this room.
The identity of the other owner was self-evident.
The couple across seemed relatively tense at Su Li’s expressionless demeanor, seemingly interpreting her facial expression incorrectly.
"Ah Lee, don’t misunderstand, Qiu Yu and I just happened to bump into each other at the door."
"Ah Lee, Qiu Yu is here to invite you out to the deck to have fun; such nice scenery, why hide in the room alone and sleep?"
Li Yiyang, who seemed to be the original owner’s boyfriend, showed a doting smile, "You little jealous pot, look at how your serious expression scared Qiu Yu."
As he spoke, Li Yiyang’s hand made a motion towards Su Li’s face, as if he wanted to pinch Su Li’s nose tip.
Such intimate actions were undoubtedly typical interactions between couples.
Su Li noticed a flash of envy in Qiu Yu’s eyes.
"Hey, you’re too much, flaunting your affection in front of a single person like me, aren’t you afraid of my retaliation?"
Li Yiyang playfully responded, "Not afraid at all, why don’t you find someone quickly so we can enjoy another dose of couple’s sweetness."
"There are so many high-quality elite men on board, considering you’re Ah Lee’s best friend, should I introduce you? They’re all my childhood friends and close buddies, thoroughly acquainted with each other."
"No, no, spare me, I really enjoy my single life right now and don’t want to be controlled strictly like Ah Lee, forbidden from even glancing at other men."
Qiu Yu made a series of exaggerated facial expressions at Su Li, implying, "Giving up a forest for a single tree isn’t the wisest choice..."
Li Yiyang feigned anger, "Don’t lead my little Ah Lee astray..."
As the two of them bantered back and forth, Su Li held her emotion in, lowered her head, and truthfully said, "You two have a great relationship."
Upon hearing this, the room suddenly grew quiet.
Qiu Yu giggled, "See, your little temper has flared up again."
She raised her hands in a surrender position and admitted defeat, "Fine, fine, I give up, who told you you’re my best friend? From now on, when I see Li Yiyang, I’ll keep a ten-meter distance."
If it were another inexperienced girl now, she’d definitely be red-faced, swearing she absolutely didn’t mean this.
Balancing the dear boyfriend and the best friend, it was like choosing between love and friendship, which was more important.
For some, it’s an easy choice, but for others, a difficult one.
Their relationship was very close, and Qiu Yu and Li Yiyang were very familiar with and understanding of the original owner.
Looking at their expressions, it was clear they were anticipating Su Li’s reaction.
But this understanding they had was of the original self, not of Su Li now.
So, Su Li showed high praise for Qiu Yu’s perception, nodding seriously, "Nice, it seems you have a deep understanding of friendship."
"It’s crucial for girlfriends to avoid issues of unclear boundaries."
Suddenly, Qiu Yu’s face turned as colorful as a spilt paint pallet.
She could joke at her own expense without issue, but hearing it from someone else made her a little self-conscious.
But Su Li didn’t notice, she continued to hold Qiu Yu’s hand tenderly and said, "You are my best friend, I treasure you immensely."
Then she turned to Li Yiyang, "Look, Qiu Yu said so, can’t let a girl make concessions, right? Next time you see Qiu Yu, you’d best keep a safe distance."
Qiu Yu bit her lip, her whole body almost shaking, looked sadly at Su Li, "Ah Lee, have you misunderstood me?"
"Am I really that kind of person, needing such precautions?"
Su Li: "Of course not, I trust your character a lot, but... I trust you, but I can’t trust Li Yiyang. Plus my best friend is so beautiful and outstanding, what if he can’t resist and falls for you?"
Su Li began speaking nonsense.
"Pfft," Qiu Yu turned Su Li’s words from tears to laughter, poking Su Li’s forehead in amusement and exasperation, "You, you... express jealousy with such purity and sophistication, it’s rare."
Li Yiyang quickly added, "I fear the likes of you two ladies, from now on I’ll have to retreat at the sight of both of you."
And thus, the matter was completely brushed over.
