109: true end Ordinary Happiness
"This ti, let's read about those important days, Lele."
"As you wish, my Lili."
[July 20, Year 115 of the White Lily Calendar]
[Today is the day the College Entrance Exam results are released! Without any surprises, Lili and I both were admitted to Osmanthus Academy, ranked third in the Cosmos Republic. This is also the university our teacher recomnded for us. Unlike Violet Academy or Rose Academy, Osmanthus Academy doesn't carry strong labels of the Free School or Academic School. There is no discrimination against art schools. The professor said that there, we can freely pursue our artistic dreams. I hope she is right.]
"Ah, university days. What nostalgic tis."
Liu Lili smiled, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes bunching together. It was obvious that ti was precious to her, and simply recalling it made her incredibly happy.
"Yes, although it was a long ti ago, it was beautiful."
Going to university with her lover was Lu Lele's second favorite period of ti.
If Lu Lele and Liu Lili's middle and high school years were like orange soda, then university was like a blues cocktail with lemon juice added.
It was refreshing, yet carried a trace of bitterness. But savoring it carefully, one could taste a unique sweetness.
Generally speaking, it is hard to balance studying with being passionately in love, but the two of them managed to have it all. The hardships of being art students did not stop the two girls from squeezing out ti for dates, nor did it stop them from establishing all sorts of rules based on drawing to decide who would be the dominant one in bed.
To avoid being pinned down by her lover, they could only work harder and harder.
And the training the female professor provided over those few years played a decisive role.
Lu Lele's fundantals were unrecognizably better than in her previous attempt. Liu Lili also no longer knew only how to copy; she could create excellent original paintings.
With such a solid foundation, the two improved so quickly that they left their peers far behind. They were even noticed by the principal, who personally arranged the best ntors for them.
But if there was one event that left the deepest impression on Lu Lele, it would be tracing back to the first year of university.
It was also a rather cliché plot.
Because of her beauty, Lu Lele was pursued by a senior male student one year above her.
That senior was also an international student from the White Lily Republic. He possessed conditions he believed Lu Lele could not refuse; his parents were both officials working in the governnt, he was handso, and he was very rich.
Lu Lele rejected that senior very clearly, telling him that she already had a lover and that she was a lesbian. She then threw his love letter into the trash can.
But in that senior's eyes, there seed to be no such thing as a woman he couldn't obtain. So, he began to use various thods to coerce and entice Lu Lele into submitting.
However, Lu Lele's experience from decades of reincarnation wasn't accumulated in vain. The other party didn't gain the slightest advantage, and was instead sanctioned by Lu Lele several tis in return.
A few months later, the senior, who hadn't even touched Lu Lele's hand, finally lost his composure. He started spreading rumors damaging to Lu Lele, attempting to ruin her relationship with Liu Lili.
Liu Lili found out about this. She stopped Lu Lele, who was planning to physically eliminate the other party, and proposed a requirent to him.
A painting duel.
Composed of teachers from the academy as judges, they would resolve the dispute through a contest of painting.
This was also a tradition of the academy. Any disputes that could not be reconciled could be resolved in this manner.
In the end, the result of the painting duel was a victory for Liu Lili, against all expectations. The senior was forced to apologize, and with his reputation ruined, he never dared to trouble Lu Lele again.
[August 8, Year 120 of the White Lily Calendar]
[Where on earth did my sister find so many people! Even if this was the "surprise" she gave , it's too exaggerated, right? Not just radio reporters, she even invited the mayor! However, this wedding was truly dreamlike. Especially at the mont when five hundred and twenty fireworks rose simultaneously, that scene was simply too beautiful! But, what I wanted to rember most was, of course, Lili's blushing cheeks when she said "I do." So red, and incredibly cute!]
"I didn't blush back then." Even though she was over seventy, Liu Lili remained stubborn about this.
"I know, I know." Lu Lele stroked her lover's head like she was coaxing a child.
At the age of 24, Lu Lele and Liu Lili got married.
By this ti, Liu Lili was already an art designer for a famous ga company, responsible for drawing ga original art. She was widely praised for her solid foundation, and her annual inco was even higher than Lu Lele's, who was working as a lead artist in a manga studio.
They had a incredibly grand wedding. The wedding was conducted with great pomp and circumstance, and almost every famous person in the city ca.
Liu Lili's parents were also invited. They appeared extrely apprehensive. During their speech, they repeatedly praised how excellent Lu Lele was and how lucky their daughter was, and so on.
This ti, Lu Lele could finally interrupt them without hesitation and say that sentence very seriously:
She was not with because of luck. Lili's own excellence was enough for her to be my equal, a lover well-matched to .
As her voice fell, the whole venue erupted in applause, and Liu Lili shed tears because of it.
[July 1, Year 126 of the White Lily Calendar]
[Lili and I beca the first couple to try the female-female reproduction technology. According to the agency, the condition of the early embryo is very good, and we can go in today. In the end, I couldn't win against Lili. She will be the one to carry and give birth to our child. This way, in the future, she will beco the child's Mama, and I will beco the child's Mother.]
"Hehe, our little Lili was famous from birth, after all. Being the first case of a technology written into history."
"Goodness, I should have been the one to get pregnant back then. Lili, you scread like a slaughtered pig when giving birth to little Lili. My heart was bleeding just listening to it."
"How many years has it been, yet you still use that taphor? I told you, although it hurt a lot back then, once I saw little Lili, it didn't hurt at all."
Lu Lele and Liu Lili's child was a cute daughter nad Lu Lili.
The aning of this na was simple; it represented that she was the combination of Lu Lele and Liu Lili.
Although she was the first product of female-female reproduction technology, Lu Lili had always been very healthy and very intelligent. Her appearance inherited mostly from Lu Lele, and she was also a stunning beauty of national caliber.
The grown-up Lu Lili also inherited Lu Lele and Liu Lili's hobbies and professions, becoming an excellent manga artist. She currently runs the animation company founded by Lu Lele, and her career is booming.
A happy marriage, a fulfilling life, and a successful child. To be honest, Lu Lele and Liu Lili's lifeti had no regrets left.
"Cough cough..."
Lu Lele originally wanted to read a few more entries, but Liu Lili suddenly started coughing.
She closed the diary and asked with concern:
"Did you take your dicine today?"
"..."
Liu Lili didn't answer, averting her eyes evasively.
"I know that dicine is very bitter, but it is good for your body, Lili." Lu Lele said seriously.
At this mont, Liu Lili looked like a child who had made a mistake. She nodded silently and answered:
"I know. I will drink it. Don't worry."
"Mhm, I believe you."
Lu Lele smiled at her lover, then gently kissed Liu Lili on the cheek and said:
"I love you, my dear."
Liu Lili responded with an equally gentle smile:
"I love you too."
There was nothing soul-stirring.
There was nothing tragic.
The instincts of the possessive yandere were suppressed very well by Lu Lele. Or rather, she didn't need to suppress them at all.
After all, from start to finish, she was with the person she loved most, living day after day in warm and happy tis.
Perhaps it was indeed very plain.
Perhaps it was indeed not worth ntioning.
But this was precisely the happiness that belonged to them. Their ordinary happiness.
