Chapter 178 Scheming Youth 21

After hearing 003's words, Xu Qiuqiu was stunned. It was unbelievable. Under what circumstances could he drug someone so silently?

Seeing Xu Qiuqiu's silence and the look of utter despair on her face, 003 quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, host. The second male lead shouldn't hurt you. He only stared at you all night last night..."

003 suddenly stopped talking. It felt that saying it that way sounded even more perverted, so it had to change its words. "Host, it's okay. We can just start over with the plot. After all, the second male lead was quite upright and righteous in the early plot."

Xu Qiuqiu asked doubtfully, "Are you sure?"

003 thought for a moment and said, "It seems... I'm not entirely sure. It feels like the second male lead's personality will become very obsessive after he meets the host. Before the host appears, the second male lead is quite normal in the story."

"You mean, Ah Chen only became paranoid after meeting me?"

Unable to answer the question, 003 could only say, "Host, I don't understand human emotions either. After all, I'm still young, and I've never been in love."

Xu Qiuqiu fell into deep thought. Why did Achen want to tie her up?

Thinking about it carefully, hasn't she always been coaxing him ever since she married him?

Yesterday, I just didn't want to talk to him during the day, which was like throwing a little tantrum. If it was just to go see Lin Yexuan, it shouldn't have been that serious, right?

Not long after, the door was pushed open, and light flooded into the room.

Xu Qiuqiu looked up at the person who had come. The young man was dressed in a dark robe, and the light did not reach his face, making him look more gloomy.

He walked slowly toward her, a smile on his handsome face, as if nothing had happened, and spoke in the same intimate tone as always: "My lady, you're awake."

After saying that, he took her hand and looked at her with the same tenderness as always, "My wife, will you stay with me forever?"

"Okay." Xu Qiuqiu nodded.

Shen Yuchen was taken aback, clearly not expecting her to answer like that, and tightened his grip on her hand, "Really...?"

"Really." Xu Qiuqiu looked at him sincerely.

Just kidding, she's not stupid. If she said she didn't want to, she doesn't know how long he would lock her up.

Shen Yuchen stared at her intently, her gaze genuine.

Noticing that the strange aura around him had diminished considerably, Xu Qiuqiu obediently asked him, "Then, Achen, can you unlock these chains and let me out?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the aura that had eased around Shen Yuchen suddenly became oppressive again.

She still wanted to leave him, so she went to great lengths to please him. Why? Why did she lie to him like that?

He felt a chill spread throughout his body, and his heart ached from the cold.

Unable to contain his emotions, his voice filled with anger: "So you were just saying these things to coax me into leaving!"

"I didn't..." Xu Qiuqiu quickly explained, "I want to be with A-Chen..."

Shen Yuchen didn't believe it at all. "My wife, I really didn't expect that you would tell me such a lie just to get out of here!"

He looked at her with a sorrowful gaze, "Does my wife want to appease me so that she can divorce me after we leave?"

After saying that, he could no longer control his emotions. His face turned sinister, and his voice rose: "I won't give you that chance. Even if it means death, you have to stay with me!"

(The male protagonist is having his usual wild thoughts and is starting to scare people again.)
