Chapter 43 41. She wants to consummate the marriage.
Chapter 43 41. She wants to consummate the marriage.
The mournful moon was silent,
Lin Qingque remained speechless, presenting the look of a victor despite clearly being a loser, and even showed a pitiful expression.
This familiar scene caused Tian Liuli to feel an inexplicable annoyance.
However, that annoyance quickly dissipated like the wind.
Why should she be angry with someone who was on the verge of death?
If it weren't for Lin Qingque's connection to Xu Yuan, someone like her would not have been able to stir even a ripple in the lake of her heart in her previous life.
"What have you done to him? Speak, and perhaps I might spare your life."
Tian Liuli's clear gaze fell upon her, as sharp as a sword, cold and devoid of any warmth.
"Heh."
Lin Qingque simply sneered, "Kill me then. One of us won his heart, and the other his body. We're even now."
"Even? You think you're on a par with me?"
Tian Liuli raised her hand, and as she emotionlessly swung her palm, she suddenly heard a faint sigh.
Xu Yuan opened his eyes, awakening from beneath the girl's skirt, and rapidly yet steadily swung his palm that had been ready to strike.
Clang!
Despite the clash of palms, the sound was like the stir of sword intent.
Tian Liuli was sent flying backward, casually waving her sleeve, effortlessly neutralizing the tremendous force.
"So you couldn't hold back after all?"
Her lips curled up in a scornful smile.
Xu Yuan did not say a word, but instead looked down at Lin Qingque with concern and asked, "Junior Sister, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Senior Brother."
Lin Qingque's gaze was full of emotion, showing no sign of suspicion about the peculiarity behind his sudden awakening, only surprise and delight.
She had no idea that Xu Yuan's awakening was indeed because of her, but in a way, it wasn't solely for her sake.
Because at this moment, his eyes seemed to be looking at her, when in fact, they were fixed on something else.
Nickname: Xu Yuan

Store (Click to expand for details)
State: Dao Heart Demon Planting (Because you inadvertently consumed a large amount of Healing Elixir, you will be influenced by the whisperings of Lin Qingque's Heart Voice for some time to come.)
Xu Yuan sighed silently to himself.
He knew all too well the old saying: 'One who eats another's food becomes soft-hearted; one who takes another's coin becomes short-handed.'
The Healing Elixir that Lin Qingque had given him before most likely had this effect as well, though he had drunk too little at the time for it to take much effect.
Just now, in order to avoid her suspicion, he had pretended to drink it unconsciously.
His initial plan was to lie in wait until the two of them were both significantly weakened, and then come out to clean up the mess. By then, not only could he obtain the precious Illusory Realm, but he might also be able to eliminate the threat of both parties ahead of time.
If only...
Because he hadn't wanted Lin Qingque to notice, he never attempted to control his body.
By the time he realized that his body had started moving unconsciously due to Lin Qingque's Heart Voice whispering, it was too late,
so he simply went with the flow, pretending to have just awakened and to have rescued his Junior Sister from dire straits.
"Lin, you really are a fool. Can't you see the situation clearly even now? He's just using you to weaken me, that's all. He never liked you from the beginning," said Tian Liuli, with a flicker in her eyes and a deep voice.
Even though she was currently the strongest on the field, teaming up against her without harming Xu Yuan would be somewhat difficult.
"Heh, you're just jealous. Besides, even if it were true, so what? If Senior Brother is using me, that means I am in his heart. Otherwise, why would he think to use me?"
Lin Qingque chuckled smugly, clinging affectionately to Xu Yuan's hand, her eyes filled with adoration and obsession as she rubbed her legs together unconsciously.
If it weren't for the "State" still displaying on the attribute panel, if it weren't for knowing in advance that her nature was that of a hypnotic yandere instead of some sort of worshipful yandere,
Xu Yuan might have really been fooled by her.
Indeed, none of these female leads are simple.
The seemingly most harmless Lin Qingque is actually the one with the deepest hidden identity among the three of them.
Xu Yuan sighed and looked at Tian Liuli, saying, "Miss Liuli, why must you do this? I've said before, I don't like you, so why must you cling to me?"
Seeing Xu Yuan's devoted demeanor toward Lin Qingque, Tian Liuli had never felt such intense fluctuations in her heart realm.
She took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and said to Xu Yuan, "Mr. Xu, do you know when I began to suspect you?"
Without waiting for Xu Yuan's response, she continued gravely, "After that night I went to your room..."
At this point, the expressions on the faces of all three present turned somewhat odd.
Seeing Lin Qingque's unsurprised demeanor, Tian Liuli's complexion also changed, murmuring, "As I thought, she was there that night too."
She took a deep breath and continued, "That day, when you were washing my feet, I was happy, but... later on, the more I thought about it, the more something didn't feel right."
"What didn't feel right?"
Lin Qingque's expression changed slightly, but she was not as furiously angered as Tian Liuli had imagined.
After all, although she didn't know about this incident between the two,
What she heard with Heart Voice, combined with the fact that her brother's thoughts were on her Jade Foot at the time,
Lust for the feet, heart with Lin.
"At that time, because it was the first time, I sweated, but you didn't offer to help me clean it up..."
Her eyes cold and piercing, she looked at a stunned Xu Yuan.
"If... if you really liked me, you wouldn't have been indifferent at that moment, you wouldn't have even asked me if I needed to relieve myself afterward, where it would take place, nor did you voluntarily tell me about past events, who you chatted with, what was said, whether you missed me and how many times. Clearly, I'm your fiancée, yet I know nothing about you in this life... I don't understand you at all..."
Tian Liuli began to speak like spilling beans.
Clearly, these words had been bottled up in her heart for a long time.
Previously, she had held back in order to maintain her image.
But now, she was ready to break the jar and ruin everything, using violence to dominate it all, and naturally, she became uninhibited.
"..."
What else could Xu Yuan say? Xu Yuan could only stay quiet.
The process was completely wrong, yet the conclusion was correct.
The thinking of these yanderes is indeed impossible for normal people to comprehend.
Compared to his silence, Lin Qingque seemed quite excited.
She agreed with Tian Liuli's words.
It seemed that brother indeed didn't really like her.
"Forget it, talking about this now won't help matters."
Tian Liuli suddenly sighed wearily, not ruling out the possibility that this was due to Lin Qingque's Heart Voice ability.
But she didn't have the patience to wait any longer.
Even without him scheming, she was planning to settle everything after this mission.
Their marriage contract was already due, and they could have consummated it long ago.
Of course, there is another main reason, and that is, she could sense three obscure and malevolent gazes set on him, filled with dirty desires for him.
She could feel that among them, one had already taken action.
Tian Liuli was worried that delaying any further would inevitably lead to an accident.
So she didn't want to wait any longer!
She wanted to lock him up and then cultivate as quickly as possible. To ascend together.
As to whether he was bewitched by Lin Qingque's Heart Voice ability or if it was his own true intention,
It didn't matter at all.
In any case, she would lock him up and love him dearly.
She would pour all her love into him, letting him understand who in this world loved him the most.
