Chapter 119: I felt dizzy or fell asleep

Xie Yanyu had guessed it earlier.

After looking in the mirror of the past, she vaguely realized that something was wrong.

Those plots were like things she had experienced. Although she didn't remember them, certain emotions and feelings were imprinted in her body. She just couldn't be sure whether they were really the so-called past life or present life.

Now I heard it from Helan Wei's mouth.

As expected.

So although I was surprised, I didn't feel particularly surprised.

Instead, the system in my brain started to scream.

The noise gave her a headache.

She was quiet for a moment, then said to the system, "Don't scream so loudly." "Haven't you known this all along? You should know about rebirth, right? You just kept it a secret from me. Why are you so surprised now?"

The system was buzzing in her head, not because of surprise.

Mainly because the things it had been hiding were exposed unexpectedly, it was hard for it not to cry out -

And it was the first time to know that Helan Wei was also reborn.

The news was like a bomb, blowing its mind blank.

He was reborn, how come it didn't notice?

The system pondered.

It feels that the main reason is that although Helan Wei was reborn, his performance is not much different from the original plot overall.

Although some behaviors had changed, they were not so significant as to make it doubt that he had been reborn.

After all, in the original plot, after Xie Yanyu's death and before the plot completely collapsed, Helan Wei's condition was very abnormal, so crazy that it was difficult to describe, so it subconsciously thought that if he was reborn, he would also be very crazy, much crazier than he is now.

It was thinking to itself.

But he finally stopped screaming and didn't dare to talk to Xie Yanyu. He kept his mouth shut and pretended to be dead.

My mind is finally quiet.

Then Xie Yanyu thought of the monster again.

If that monster is the Demon Lord, then he must have been reborn.

However, looking back at the original storyline, he pierced her heart with a sword. If the demon was the Demon Lord, and treated her like this after being reborn, it must be something that happened after her death. However, in the original storyline, all the pages after her death are blank.

Now that Helan Wei has been reborn...

Xie Yanyu looked at Helan Wei again.

She looked normal, showing no strange expression about the so-called past and present lives. She remained noncommittal, as if tacitly agreeing: "Since you have also been reborn, then tell me what happened after I died."

These words fell.

Helan Wei opened his mouth and wanted to answer.

Memories flowed through her mind. After she died, he dug out her sachet from some corner and kept wearing it, as if that would allow him to laugh at her. She thought she had broken up with him completely, but in fact, it wasn't that clean.

Because the sachet had become old and dusty from his wearing, he never took it off.

Often, he would reach out and stroke the fabric with his fingertips.

But many times, which times?

Helan Wei suddenly thought about those things carefully, but suddenly found that his memories were vague, like a cloud of fog.

In his memory, there was only the image and feeling of him caressing the sachet. What was he doing at other times? What happened during that time after her death? Even before his rebirth, how did he die in his previous life?

He actually...

"I forgot." Helan Wei said.

*

Unable to get more information from Helan Wei.

Therefore, Xie Yanyu began to interrogate the system again.

But no matter what she asked, the system didn't answer her.

Either they kept silent, or they evaded the question by saying, "I don't know."

In the end, nothing was asked.

Xie Yanyu couldn't help feeling a little annoyed. The system refused to say anything, and she really had no way to force it to speak.

Finally she asked: If I finish the storyline, I can still become an immortal, right?

System: [Yes.]

It paused, its thoughts swirling before it added, "I'm not lying to you. Really. As for the rest, there are some things I truly don't know, and some things I, as a system, shouldn't reveal. And there are others I can't discuss. If I do, I might disappear. Immortality is what I promised you. It's the only thing I can do. If I disappear, you won't be able to achieve it. Don't ask any more questions."

You can tell that the system is a bit helpless.

And it is also limited.

Maybe it was a little anxious at the moment, so its speech was not very fluent. Xie Yanyu listened to its words, thinking about something.

I don’t know what she was thinking, but in the end she didn’t ask any more questions: Forget it.

System: […Well, actually, the most urgent thing is to follow the plot. What’s in front of us is the most important. There’s no point in asking so many questions about other things.]

Xie Yanyu remained silent.

She changed the question: Since we are following the plot, you have to tell me, is that monster the Demon Lord?

Actually, it's a bit negligent.

Whether the monster followed her secretly as a monster at first, or later disguised as a servant, she never asked his name.

Because she didn't need to call his name very often, he was so considerate and obedient, always by her side. Most of the time, when she needed something, he wouldn't have to wait for her to ask, he would ask her first and then prepare everything for her. Even if he didn't ask her first about something, she would just look at him and he would come up and ask her what she wanted.

When I turned around, he was beside me.

So much so that she had never even called him by his name, nor did she know his name.

But he wanted to hide his identity, so even if she asked him his name, he would just make one up.

Xie Yanyu waited for the system's answer.

But the system started to play dead again and stopped talking.

Fortunately, this does not require a system answer, she can find the answer herself.

It's just another trip to see him.

Then check to see if there are any wounds on his waist caused by her.

*

Because of the fight with Helan Wei, the monster was seriously injured and looked very weak.

When Xie Yanyu went over, he knocked on his door, but heard no response, so he pushed the door open and went in.

It was already nightfall, and the sky was very dark. A little moonlight shone through from outside, but the room was still dark. With such brightness, the wound on his waist was definitely not visible, so Xie Yanyu lit another candle to illuminate the room before walking in.

I walked around the screen, came to the bed, and saw the ups and downs under the quilt.

The monster was sleeping, its black hair spread out like vines, covering its pale face, making it look fragile. Under the quilt, its legs looked long and bent, probably unable to maintain its human form and turned into a snake's tail.

Xie Yanyu instinctively disliked snake tails.

It should be because in the original plot, she was almost strangled to death by him with a snake tail. The memory is gone, but the aversion to the snake tail remains.

She walked to the bed and gently lifted the quilt.

She put her hand on his collar and tried to pull it open with some force.

The system finally couldn't bear it anymore.

It was the type of person who wouldn't cry until he saw the coffin. When she asked, it still adhered to the principle of not saying anything if possible.

But now her hands were on his clothes. If she unbuttoned them, she would be able to see if there was any injury on his waist. There was no point in hiding it: [It’s him, he is Chen Lang.]

As soon as these words fell.

Xie Yanyu paused and was about to take his hand back.

However, at this moment, a gust of wind blew through the room and blew out the candle.

The light disappears.

Suddenly, everything went dark before my eyes.

Even though I’m no longer night blind, I still can’t see very well.

A hand reached out from the side, cold and slender, and slowly grasped the hand she was about to take back.

It was Chen Lang’s hand.

Xie Yanyu wanted to speak, but suddenly found that he could not make a sound.

I wanted to take my hand back, but found that I couldn't move.

And Chen Lang's hand, like a vine, held her tightly.

In the darkness, his fingertips began to move, touching her hand bit by bit, from the fingers to the back of the hand, as if he was touching a precious treasure. The force was light, but every inch of skin was not left out.

She heard his voice: "Baby."

Xie Yanyu was speechless.

Obviously, he also knew that she couldn't speak, so he didn't wait for her to answer.

He loosened his grip slightly, as if he wanted to let her go, but just as he loosened his grip a little, he seemed to regret it. His hand wrapped around her like a snake, and his slender fingers wedged into her fingers, interlocking theirs.

"I was seriously injured and unconscious. I was a little confused just now. When I heard someone come in, I thought it was someone with bad intentions, so... I instinctively used a spell to freeze the person. I only realized it was you now. I'm sorry, did I scare you?"

His voice was soft and weak.

But his tone was gentle and he sounded very serious about apologizing.

But in the darkness, Xie Yanyu could feel it.

She could feel that his eyes on her were filled with a suppressed desire for aggression and possessiveness. Even though he was suppressing it, she could still feel that his eyes seemed to want to swallow her into his stomach, and the lust in them was astonishingly strong.

Every time.

He wouldn't do that when she looked at him.

But in the darkness, in the shadows, where she couldn't see, he would look at her like this.

Xie Yanyu even suspected that he was deliberately freezing her.

She couldn't speak, couldn't move, and couldn't break free from his spell, so at this moment she could only stand there like a puppet, except for her eyeballs, which could move. So she turned her gaze to him.

Shen Lang avoided her gaze.

How could he dare to look her in the eye?

Even in the darkness, he didn't dare to look her in the eye, because he knew how despicable and dark he was.

Of the things he said just now, only the fact that he was weak and mentally confused was true. Not a single word of the rest was true. When her footsteps appeared in front of the bed, he woke up and knew it was her.

He didn't want to lie to her, but he was afraid she would see the wound on his waist.

She was suspicious, but suspicion was just suspicion. Only if she really saw him would she confirm his identity.

Would she hate him?

Will you drive him away?

How can this be?

He always felt that she had some memories of her past life, but they were incomplete. If she discovered his identity, he might one day never be able to get close to her again.

He would agree with her in everything.

Even if he watched her having sex with someone else and listened to them outside, he could accept it. He could do anything, but he couldn't leave her. He couldn't live without her for a single day. This was all he wanted, just this, just watching her, being allowed to follow her, that would satisfy him. He was so despicable, but stealing such a glance also made him extremely satisfied.

But if even this is taken away...

He could feel that there was a dark fog somewhere in his heart. If even a little bit of it was gone, he might lose control and use some means to keep her by his side, or stay with her.

He didn't know what he would do.

Maybe he would take her back to the demon world and lock himself and her together, forever and ever, so that she could only see him and never be separated from him. Or maybe he would sew himself and her together with needle and thread.

Or he could cut himself into pieces and force her to eat them, so that they would never be separated.

Shen Lang suppressed these thoughts.

He gently squeezed her hand and intertwined his fingers with hers. This was enough to make him happy now.

He wanted to keep this happiness.

So she can't see it.

“That must have scared you.

"I'm sorry... but I can only use this spell, I can't dispel it. I can only wait for it to wear off on its own. It will take several hours.

"Will you get tired standing like this?"

His tone was gentle and concerned as he questioned her in the darkness, but he didn't wait for her to answer.

Xie Yanyu listened to his voice.

Then she felt him stand up slightly, and with some strength, he pulled her down.

It was like hugging a favorite doll. His strong arms wrapped around her waist and he carried her to the bed. He did not let go and instead wrapped his arms around her even tighter. But perhaps because he knew she didn't like snake tails, he pulled his tail back slightly so she couldn't touch it.

Then he buried his head in the crook of her neck.

The warm breath fell on her. She couldn't move, but she felt her lower back go weak.

But other than that, he didn't do anything else. He just whispered softly in her ear, "It will be better if you lie down like this. Go to sleep. You will be able to move when you get up tomorrow morning."

He was coaxing her to sleep.

He held her tightly, but his hands patted her back gently.

It was as if he had infinite patience to do such things. Xie Yanyu didn't want to sleep at first, but being held in his arms and coaxed gently by him, she finally felt dizzy and fell asleep.

*

She is so beautiful.

Chen Lang looked at her eyebrows and eyes. Only after she fell asleep did he dare to get close to her and do something presumptuous.

He put his lips gently to her eyebrows and kissed her little by little, then he bit her lips. He was so excited that his scalp was tingling, a faint blush appeared under his eyes, and a little watery light appeared in his amber eyes.

Wait until you kiss her all over.

He got out of bed and cut open his heart scales.

The newly grown scales were pulled out, revealing a bloody wound. He had an expressionless face as he drew out the power from the heart-protecting scales and used this power to force the wound on his waist to heal. Then, coughing up blood, he returned to the bed and tightly wrapped his snake tail around her.
