My Soulmate Is I (Patreon)

Chapter 14: Explanation Gone Astray

"Stay away from my sister, you dangerous piece of trash."

As soon as I (Night) was pulled out of the door by Xue'er, she came at me with this barrage of words.

To be honest, my first reaction (Night) was confusion.

Because in my memory, Xue'er had never used such an attitude towards me before.

Did she really call me trash? Are you sure these are words that Xue'er could say?

Could it be that someone swapped personalities?

After a moment of confusion, I realized that, oh right, both I (Night) and I (Yue) are currently in the same space. Yue, my female self was with Laphae, and Xue'er was addressing my male self, Night.

In other words, Xue'er was just doing what she always does—driving away people around me (Yue).

"I understand, I won't get close to your sister."

Anyway, let's just deal with it for now.

"You're so casual about it. You must be thinking about dealing with me first and then secretly pursuing my sister, right? You heartless turnip! Let me warn you, every inch of Lady Sister's skin belongs to me! Don't even think about getting close to her!!"

"You little—"

Stay calm, stay calm. I'm not Yue, I'm Night. I need to stay calm and deal with Xue'er later when I (Yue) take care of her. For now, I (Night) just need to get through this.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your sister. She's not my type. Laphae is."

"Hmph, I'll believe you this time. But if I find out you're trying anything funny, whether openly or in secret..."

Xue'er showed off her cute tiger teeth and I couldn't help but pinch her cheek and then pat her head.

At first, Xue'er closed her eyes comfortably, but then she quickly reacted and swatted my hand away with a fierce look. "What are you, trash, doing? In this world, only my Sister can touch me like that!"

"Alright, alright."

I shrugged indifferently and turned to walk back to the guild entrance.

"Anyway, you better believe me. I really have no interest in your sister."

Being my own girlfriend? How miserable would my life be then?

Look at my face—just think about it, you'd know I'm the kind of person who can find a wife. How could I possibly end up with the pathetic future of solving my own problems?

"Hmph, so I'll only believe you this once."

As Xue'er followed me into the guild entrance, she hadn't finished speaking when she saw her own sister walk up to the backstage and take the tray from the beautiful mother who had just warned the trashy guy in front of her.

"Let me handle it, Mom. You can go attend to other things."

Upon hearing those words, Xue'er's brain went blank in an instant. "Huh?"

Not just Xue'er, even I was stunned into silence.

Both versions of me were equally stunned.

"Oh my, she called her 'Mom' directly. What a well-spoken child. Laphae, it seems you've got a strong competitor."

"Oooooohhh"

"This new girl is quite scheming, going straight to gain his mother's approval from the get go.”

"Are kids nowadays so impressive? They even know how to please their future mothers-in-law from such a young age!"

"You're quite popular, Little Night! But of course, if I weren't so old, I'd want to call Miss Fay my mom too!"

"Well done, it takes such bold and intense efforts to win over little Night!"]

At first, Mom looked puzzled for a moment, and then her face lit up with joy. She looked at me (Yue) with a pleased smile, and a group of adventurers watching the scene burst into cheers and applause.

At this moment, even Dad (Yue’s dad) finally caught on and put on a stern expression. "Yue, did you fall asleep on the train or something?"

I (Yue) also took a deep breath, forcing myself to calm down. "I'm sorry, Miss Fay, but you're so much like my mother."

"It's okay. You're really adorable, and I mean it. You're just too lovable! It's alright if you keep calling me Mom if you want to in the future, I'll be happy about it."

Mom (Night mom) didn't yet know about Dad (Yue dad) Duke status, so she was being incredibly playful without any restraint.

And behind me,

"Yue~~~"

Laphae's eyes weren't filled with resentment anymore; they were now radiating with dark intent.

Of course, it wasn't just Laphae—Xue'er's gaze from behind me (Night) was even more intense with killing intent. Her gaze drilled into my back and made my scalp tingle.

"This trash is indeed a dangerous super-trash, an extremely dangerous trash! He has the audacity to bewitch my sister on their first meeting! A trash like him should be wiped out and thrown directly into the trash bin! I mustn't let my guard down and spare him! I'll definitely have to personally take you down, slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you, slaughter you!"

I'm genuinely in danger now.

It's not just the killing intent from Xue'er behind me (Night), but in front of me (Night), Dad (Yue dad) 'gaze is fixed on me (Night), his eyes filled with even more murderous intent than Xue'er's. His right hand is already gripping the hilt of the thin sword at his waist.

"What kind of demonic spell have you cast, you brat, to dare to seduce my precious daughter? I'll obliterate you, you little demon!"

Clang!!

Wow, he's actually drawn his sword!!

"Hold on a moment! Father, are you serious? Killing someone is against the law, you know! Mother, hurry and stop him... ah."

I (Night) had just finished saying that sentence when I realized I was already regretting it beyond measure.

I called Yue dad as my (Night) dad.

Crap, he is exploding.

"What right do you have to call me Father? I won't entrust my precious daughter to a playboy like you!!!"

"Oh my, this child really warms my heart with that address. He's so cute."

Mom (Yue mom)  smacked Dad with her fan and sent him sprawling on the ground, then she looked at me (Night) with a delighted expression. She glanced back and forth between me (Yue) and me (Night), her eyes getting brighter and brighter, then she moved closer to Mom and engaged in a lively conversation.

"How about it, Miss Fay? Don't they look like a perfect couple?"

"Yes, the more I look at them, the more suitable they seem! Miss Mire, you really have a wonderful daughter."

"Miss Fay also has a good son."

"They really look like a perfect match. Look, even their expressions are the same now."

"They're so adorable! And the both of them are so beautiful and handsome—when they standing together, they look like a painting."

This is bad.

In this moment, I've come to realize.

This time, there's no way to explain it clearly.
