The Substitute Female Supporting Character Sees the Bullet Screen

Chapter 30

The scent of Nie Yinzhi on him was too strong, making it impossible for him to ignore. Gu Jiang lay there for a while, entangled in his thoughts, then got up and swept aside the curtains, flying towards the downstream of the forest stream.

He wasn't particular about such things, so he didn't need to heat the water. While still in mid-air, he tore off his robe and stepped directly into the cold water. The scent of Nie Yinzhi on his breath was quickly carried away by the flowing water.

A fresh red rose petal floated down the surface of the clear water, rolling in the ripples. Gu Jiang reached out and pinched it, crushing it between his fingers.

Soon, more petals were carried by the current, and with a single gesture, Gu Jiang caught them all, the petals sticking to his arm.

She used a flower bath when bathing, and even her hair washing water had several different scents. Seeing these petals, Gu Jiang's sense of smell automatically conjured up the familiar fragrance, and he already knew what scent she would have on her later.

He idly gathered the falling petals, his long fingers stirring the clear stream water, collecting the petals in his palm.

Gu Jiang chuckled, then suddenly frowned, flipping his hand to send the petals somewhere unknown, and submerged himself in the water.

He soaked in the water for a while before getting up, casually pulling out a set of clothes from his pocket. The dark red, almost black robe fell onto his arm, embroidered with intricate patterns, the gold thread on the cuffs glinting in the sunlight.

Clearly, this outfit was entirely chosen by Nie Yinzhi based on her own preferences.

Gu Jiang returned to the cliff, his body still damp with water vapor. Nie Yinzhi hadn't returned yet. He lifted the curtains and smelled the scent inside, then stepped back out.

So, his bath had been entirely unnecessary.

Feng Hanying woke up from his rabbit form. He had slept on a tiger for a night, and the big cat had been forced to carry him over mountains and valleys for two days and nights. By morning, it was so hungry that its stomach was growling, and Feng Hanying couldn't stand it any longer, so he let it go.

So now, he could only crouch in the grass. His red rabbit eyes peeked out from between the leaves, glancing at Gu Jiang's figure, then turning to look at the curtains.

His master had actually gotten up and was sitting alone on the cliff edge, blowing in the cold wind. With that lonely, desolate back and disheveled long hair, could it be that he was also afraid of Nie Yinzhi?

Feng Hanying hesitated whether to go and console Gu Jiang, but hearing footsteps approaching from afar, he shrank back.

Nie Yinzhi saw Gu Jiang sitting on the cliff edge and showed a similar surprised expression to Feng Hanying. She quickly walked over, "Why are you up?"

Before she even arrived, the fragrance from her body had already reached his nose, just as he had guessed.

Nie Yinzhi said, noticing his damp hair, and reached out to lift it, "Why is your hair wet? Did you...?" She noticed Feng Hanying was still there and switched to spiritual transmission, "Are you so weak that you can't even dry your own hair?"

Gu Jiang, with her hair in her grasp, looked up at her and snorted through his nose, "Even if I sent ten of you to the stage of transformation, I could do it." Nie Yinzhi's movements were really slow. If she had come back a little later, his hair would have dried in the wind.

?I believe you're a ghost. You old demon, you're so bad, if you could do it just once, your kids could be making soy sauce by now!?

?Demon, I don't believe you, unless you show us now!?

Hehe, last night you were hugging Nie Yinzhi, licking and sucking; I thought you had a unique fetish for dreaming about your lover. But when you woke up, you secretly destroyed the evidence. You're really something.

Wow, dreaming about your lover, that's hilarious hahaha

?Dreaming about it is fine too, demon, just do it!?

Nie Yinzhi glanced at the bullet comments and instinctively wanted to touch her neck, but she resisted. She just felt that the dream had been a bit too realistic.

She tried to shake off the images in her mind and used her spiritual power to dry his hair, "Did you bathe?"

Gu Jiang replied, "Yeah, I was covered in your scent."

"Well, I'm covered in your scent too," Nie Yinzhi muttered, her neck still wet with your saliva.

This thought seeped into his heart through "empathy," and Gu Jiang's eyes flickered, nervously swallowing a mouthful of saliva. She hadn't noticed, right?

Nie Yinzhi stood behind him, unaware of anything.

Gu Jiang had a very unique scent, a cold, solemn fragrance that Nie Yinzhi had never encountered before. She didn't know how to describe it; it was elusive, suddenly overpowering her own scent and invading her sense of smell.

Nie Yinzhi's face felt hot, and her action of combing his hair became a bit rougher, intentionally pulling on a strand, "So you're disgusted with me, huh?"

Gu Jiang laughed at her skilled reversal of blame, "Clearly, you're the one who dislikes me."

"I didn't..." Nie Yinzhi muttered halfway, suddenly remembering that her "empathy" hadn't been cut off. She let go, the neatly tied hair spilling back over his shoulders, smooth as silk.

Nie Yinzhi cut off "empathy," rearranging her long hair, "So, where did you go to wash? Did you sneak a peek at me?"

Gu Jiang pursed his lips, replying, "No." He had retracted his spiritual sense in time, so it didn't count as peeking. "I went downstream, far away from you."

That meant he had used the water she had washed in? Nie Yinzhi covered her face with the back of her hand, muttering in her heart, "How lucky for him."

A demon like Gu Jiang, who was always ready to lie down, had always been very casual with his hairstyle. If it weren't for Nie Yinzhi tying his hair, he would just tie it up with a hairband and be done with it.

Nie Yinzhi grabbed his sleeve, although she was satisfied with the clothes she had bought, she felt that the demon was a bit strange.

"Are we going out?" Nie Yinzhi asked.

Gu Jiang nodded, "Yes." Although he didn't want to go out, Nie Yinzhi wasn't like him; she liked bustling places.

Nie Yinzhi took a deep breath and said discontentedly, "You dressed up so nicely, who are you showing off for? And you even waited for me to come back to tie your hair for you; I'm not going to tie a crown for you, I'll just use the ugliest hairband to tie it."

When they were alone, why didn't Gu Jiang ever put in the effort to dress up? He had even complained about her clothes being too flashy.

Nie Yinzhi became more and more annoyed, but since the crown was already on, it wasn't good to take it off. It was a Xuanyu golden patterned crown that matched the clothes, and she forcefully inserted the long hairpin.

Gu Jiang turned around and saw Nie Yinzhi glaring at him, her cheeks puffed up, looking genuinely angry. Her temper was truly unreasonable.

He helplessly said, "In this world, besides you, who else would pay attention to what this big demon wears or has on?"

Nie Yinzhi blinked, convinced by him, immediately smiling, "You're right." She was happy, so she helped Gu Jiang tidy up his loose hair at the back, pulling him up and stepping back a few steps to look him up and down, "So you dressed up specially for me?"

“Not specially, just casually dressed.”

Nie Yinzhi was in a good mood and didn't argue with him.

Gu Jiang stood against the light, the setting sun outlining his slender waistline, his back straight, his stature tall and slender. With a smile on his face, he didn't look like a vicious demon at all. Of course, he wasn't vicious either. Even in the mortal world, he would be a dashing young gentleman.

If ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????they had only met in the mortal world, they would probably be a good match.

Nie Yinzhi wanted to reach out and hold his hand, but halfway through, she hesitated and withdrew it into her sleeve.

Gu Jiang noticed her small movements, pondered her thoughts for a moment, reached out and grabbed her wrist, his slightly cold fingertips resting in her palm, "What kind of floral decoration do you like?"

Nie Yinzhi glanced at his expression, seemingly nothing unusual. She closed her palm, gently holding his fingers, puzzled, "Hua Tian? Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

“Hmm.” Gu Jiang nodded; her flesh was becoming more tempting to the demonic cultivators, and once they reached the demonic cave, many would covet her. He needed to leave his mark on Nie Yinzhi, and the most conspicuous place would be her brow.

Just slapping something together wouldn't do; she definitely wouldn't like it.

Nie Yinzhi confidently said, "Lots, of course, whatever is the most beautiful and popular, and matches my makeup the best, that's what I'll stick."

Indeed, Nie Yinzhi was the most troublesome creature in the world.

Gu Jiang sighed countless times in his heart, feeling conflicted for a moment, "Do you have any designs?"

“Of course.” Nie Yinzhi looked at him strangely, pulled him down to sit on a rock, took out her makeup box from her bag, placed it on her lap, and then pulled out a small notebook.

There were decorative flower stickers and painted flower stickers; usually, it was Cheng Bi who drew and stuck them for her. Now that they weren't around, Nie Yinzhi couldn't do it herself, so she hadn't stuck any lately.

Gu Jiang took the design from her hand and flipped through it, "What kind of flower paste do you want today?"

Hearing his tone, it seemed like he was going to paint something on her? Nie Yinzhi was shocked and instinctively frowned, taking a step back. "You..." She cautiously closed her mouth, her consciousness sweeping past Gu Jiang to focus on the rabbit hiding in the grass. "Feng Hanying! Take a look at your master, he's acting really strange. Could he have been possessed by someone else?"

Feng Hanying's ears twitched, but he didn't even bother to open his eyes. "Since being with you, when has he ever been normal?"

Nie Yinzhi: "..."

Gu Jiang handed her a pattern book, waiting for her to choose. Nie Yinzhi flipped through a few pages and picked a simple design made of three water droplets.

Gu Jiang leaned in to take a look. It was too simple, but he confidently said, "Sure, I can do that."

Nie Yinzhi lowered her head, preparing to fetch the brush and lip rouge for him, but he reached out and gently grasped her chin. A wisp of demonic energy flowed from his fingertips, sending a cool sensation to her forehead.

After a moment, Gu Jiang let go. "Done."

Nie Yinzhi pulled out a small mirror to check. A vermilion-colored floral design adorned her fair, smooth forehead, making her appearance even more enchanting. She gently touched it with her fingertip.

"It's made from my demonic energy, so it won't fade," Gu Jiang said, taking her pattern book. There were many intricate designs inside, and he needed to practice more. "If you want to change it after applying makeup in the future, I'll do it for you."

Nie Yinzhi touched her forehead. "What's this for? To mark me as your property?"

Gu Jiang was silent for a moment. "To intimidate other demon cultivators."

Nie Yinzhi turned to look at him, her eyes smiling. "Then you'll need to learn some prettier patterns. Next time, I won't choose something so simple."

Gu Jiang held the pattern book and retreated behind the curtain. The lingering scent in the curtain had already dissipated, but his body still carried her scent.

Nie Yinzhi watched the floating barrage while checking the floral design on her forehead in the mirror. She lowered the mirror to examine her neck, moving it back and forth.

There really wasn't any trace left.

The demon is too cunning.

"I have to learn how to dye my nails and how to paint floral patterns again. Is the devil just waking up from a tribulation? doge"

How can someone who is too lazy to put in hard work be willing to learn such meticulous skills? Isn't this love?

It's all fine. Gu Jiang should learn to comb hair. After Nie Yinzhi conquers all the demons and takes the throne to become the Demon Lord, you can still open a beauty and hairdressing vocational school after losing your job. The retired old demon can have a second career.

What a joke, we Gu Gu is going to be a man who becomes a demon lord! Hidden away with a beautiful woman, you know!

Gu Jiang: As long as I do not die, you will always be my concubines!

Wow, it seems that the demon is truly focused on pleasing the emperor's main consort, yet the emperor has secretly started arranging for the selection of new candidates. The harem is about to open up!

This magic seal is stamped on the forehead; which demon would dare to come forward now? Did the demon king hear the true thoughts in Nie Yin's heart during the empathy, which is why he is so eager to assert his dominance? Demon king, you are so cunning!
