The Transmigration Missions Are Not Scientific Ch.43

Chapter 43-Entertainment Circle (5)

When they entered the room, Gu Anran set Mu Qingli on to the bed and then walked into the bathroom. She grabbed a towel and soaked it in hot water before coming out to sit next to Mu Qingli. 

“Roll up your pants.”

“This…” Mu Qingli was at a loss. 

Tsk. Seeing that Mu Qingli didn’t move, Gu Anran simply did it herself and rolled up the other’s pants. The white and tender skin was now marred in an ugly red that caused Gu Anran’s heart to die from the distress. 

“I…this…” Mu Qingli didn’t know what to say. She was afraid that even if she told the truth, Gu Anran would not believe her. 

“I understand. If this happens in the future, tell the director immediately.” They dare to use such schemes, are they prepared to face the consequences? 

Gu Anran gently pressed the hot towel against Mu Qingli’s legs, 

“Wu….” Mu Qingli let a comfortable sigh at the sudden warmth on her sore legs. 

“Is the temperature too hot?” Gu Anran wrapped Mu Qingli’s entire calf with the towel. 

“No.” Wait! This is too much! The person helping her was not her friend Mengyan (Chi Mengyan: so you’re saying it’s ok if I’m the one doing this ←←) but her Goddess! 

“No, no, no! Anran, I-I can do this myself….”

At those words, Gu Anran’s movements stopped. Then she raised her hand to flick a finger against Mu Qingli’s forehead. 

“Wha!” Mu Qingli clutched her forehead, her face full of grievance and puzzlement as she glanced up at Gu Anran. 

“Lie down. Stop trying to be brave.”

“Uh…ok…” Mu Qingli watched as Gu Anran walked in the bathroom to grab some more towels. Her heart felt like it was stuffed with sweetness. From these actions, she wondered, Anran doesn’t think I’m annoying? 

「Female lead’s rating had increased by (5) and is currently at (70).」

Huh, it increased? Speaking of, where’s the rabbit? I haven’t seen the bugger all day, did it go off somewhere to play with the other animals?

Holding the hot towel in her hands, Gu Anran walked out of the bathroom and the scene that greeted her had her veins popping against her forehead. 

The fat rabbit was being held in Mu Qingli’s arms. It was fine if the rabbit was just being hugged, but that face full of satisfaction and the two paws clawing against a certain someone’s chest….

Gu Anran stomped over to Mu Qingli and grabbed the rabbit in Mu Qingli’s arms by the scruff of its neck. 

“Squeak!” Fatty who was enjoying the gentle patting while taking advantage of the soft breasts pressed against its body looked up in irritation at the person who interrupted its enjoyment. However, when Fatty looked up, it saw a pair of eyes that were burning with flames. Combined with a frosty face, it was a combo attack of fire and ice! How frightening! 

“Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!” Due to Mu Qingli’s presence, Fatty couldn’t speak and could only cast a pitiful look at Mu Qingli. Save me! Your wife is going to kill me! 

“Anran, what are you doing?” Mu Qingli looked strangely at the human and rabbit duo. 

“I was thinking about roasting a rabbit.” Gu Anran said lightly. 

“Squeak!” See! She really is trying to kill me! 

“Ah, Anran, you shouldn’t joke like that.” Mu Qingli smiled/ 

How could you possibly think she’s joking? Don’t you see the murderous intent in her eyes?! Fatty wailed in its heart. 

Hmph. Gu Anran threw Fatty to the side and replaced the towel on Mu Qingli’s legs with a new one. 

“Do you want to watch some TV?” Gu Anran pointed to the remote control sitting on the table.

“Ok!”

Passing the remote over to Mu Qingli, Gu Anran looked around for some sort of medical ointment. Otherwise, she can only wipe some lotion to soothe the redness and wait till later to buy some medicine. 

I forgot to tell Qingyi earlier, I wonder if they will buy some without my reminder. 

Knock, Knock. Serval knocks sounded on the door.

“Hye, we’re back.” Hong Qingyi and Chi Mengyan came in while carrying several bags. 

“We bought some medicine.” Chi Mengyan raised one of the bags, the one filled with several medicine ointments. 

Brushing the towel off of Mu Qingli’s leg, they wiped the water off with a dry towel and then opened one of the smaller jars. Digging out a little bit of the medicine, Anran began to apply it onto Mu Qingli’s legs. 

“Mhmm!” Mu Qingli’s legs tightened at the sudden stinging. 

“Sorry, did I use too much strength?” Gu Anran hurriedly lessened her strength and asked gently. 

“N-no.” Mu Qingli hugged her pillow, her entire face almost buried except for two bright eyes that were staring at Gu Anran’s side profile. 

「Female lead’s rating had increased by (5) and is currently at (75).」

Ugh…so envious…Hong Qingyi chewed on her barbecue skewers she just bought and watched the love-dovey couple (although not officially a couple yet) in front of her. Annoying! Think about the single dogs for once! Awooo! 

Ever since coming into this world, her own target had only been asking about how to work as a manager, what’s the best way to help your artists, etc/ Everything was so serious! She should be happy that her wifey is so motivated and hardworking, but it was hard to gain any affection from this version of Mengyan! 

The restless Hong Qingyi grabbed Fatty who was pretending to be dead off the ground and started petting the rabbit aggressively.

“Squeak!” Why is it always me! I’m the one who’s miserable! Fatty screamed internally. 

“Qingyi, what are you doing? How could you bully small and helpless animals like this?” Chi Mengyan frowned.

“Huh? I’m not bullying it! Fatty likes it when others treat it like this! Isn’t that right, Fatty?” Hong Qingyi smiled threateningly at Fatty. 

“Squeak!” Fatty immediately surrendered to the intimidation with no resistance at all (Fatty: How can I resist? Is there even use in resisting? You guys can just lift me up with only one hand! If I resist, I really will be roasted alive! Ooooo….where are the animal rights’ activists?! I need you to help me!)

“Really?” Chi Mengyan asked skeptically. After all, Fatty’s squeaks didn’t sound pleasant. Wouldn’t someone scream if they were uncomfortable>

“Really! Do you want to try it?”

Oya! Can I eat tofu again? [1] Fatty who was sighing internally suddenly lifted its head again. 

“No, no way. I’m allergic to fur.” Chi Mengyan waved her hands. 

“Ok.” Hong Qingyi immediately threw Fatty to the side. Get out of my sight! What if she caused an allergic reaction in her wife! 

Fatty flew in a parabola and then fell to the floor. Fatty then sadly hid in the corner and started drawing circles on the ground. 

Wuwuwuwuwu! Why am I so pitiful! The players are violent and the other two are even worse! One of them is stupid and the other is allergic to me! Ahhhh! The rabbit life is so difficult! 

“Alright, you’re good.” Gu Anran screwed the lid back on and wiped her hands. 

“Thank you, Anran, I feel much better already.” Mu Qingli tried moving her legs. Although it still hurt, it was not as serious as before. 

“Alright, let’s eat dinner then!” Hong Qingyi opened the bags and declared. 

“We bought dry noodles, kebabs, hot vegetables, pork balls, and more!”

“Isn’t this a little too much?” When the food was still in the bag, Mu Qingli didn’t think it was much. Now that they had set it out, she can see how rich and plentiful tonight’s dinner will be. 

“I’m going to ask the front desk for some silverware.” Gu Anran said and then picked up the phone. 

A waitress quickly came up with several sets of silverware and then helped them pour the food into different dishes. 

“Wha! Let’s eat!” Hong Qingyi cheered.

“You already ate a lot earlier.” Gu Anran glanced at the five or six kebab sticks scattered haphazardly in the trash can. 

“Aiya~How is that much enough? I bought more than 20 skewers! You can choose from beef, mutton, pork, or chicken!” Hong Qingyi happily pointed to the kebabs piled on the plate.

Can four people eat thirty skewers? Aren’t you treating us like pigs? Gu Anran thought silently.

“Qingli, you can’t eat anymore.” Mengyan grabbed Mu Qingli’s hand that reached out for the skewers. 

“B-but…Mengyan, look, there are four different kinds and I have only eaten two kebabs….”

“Don’t you hate exercising the most? If you get fat, you’re just going to come complaining to me again.” Chi Mengyan shook her head, unwilling to compromise.

“Oh….” Mu Qingli pouted, her face was full of disappointment. 

“Eat.” Gu Anran handed several skewers to Mu Qingli. 

“This…but…” Mu Qingli sneaked a glance at Chi Mengyan and seeing the disapproving glance in the other person’s eyes, she could only shake her head. However, she couldn’t get rid of her eager expression and the constant drooling near her mouth. 

“It’s ok, just eat it. If we have to, we can go on a morning run together tomorrow.” Gu Anran said. 

“Really?” Mu Qingli then turned towards Chi Mengyan. The puppy-like expression made Chi Mengyan sigh and she nodded helplessly.

“Fine, but you better remember to go on your morning run tomorrow.” Only God knows how difficult it was to get Mu Qingli up in the morning to exercise. Furthermore, she would run but it wasn’t actually running, more like a slowed-down version of it. Now with Anran watching her, Qingli might have the motivation to exercise for real. 

“Yay!” Mu Qingli grabbed a skewer and chewed it cheerfully. 

“Your noodles.” Gu Anran placed a plate of noodles with some greens in front of Mu Qingli. 

“Don’t just eat the meat.”

“En!” Wiping her greasing hands, Mu Qingli obediently picked up the bowl and slowly ate everything. 

“Here, Mengyan, drink some soup.” Hong Qingyi placed a portion of every food onto her plate and presented it to Chi Mengyan. She was afraid her wife wouldn’t eat enough. 

“Wait, wait, this is too much. I can’t finish it.” Chi Mengyan looked helplessly at the pile of food in front of him, and hurriedly stopped Hong Qingyi’s movements. If this continued, half of the food on the table would end up in her stomach. 

“It’s fine, it’s fine. Let’s eat it together.” Hong Qingyi squeezed to sit beside Chi Mengyan. 

Ahhhhh! Too bright! My rabbit eyes hurt so much! Fatty wailed while covering its eyes. Fatty was beginning to regret running into a rabbit. Fatty had only wanted to come outside and enjoy life but has suffered both physical and mental damage ever since becoming a rabbit. Why is life so hard! I don’t want to play anymore! I want to go home!
