Chapter 31 The Witchcraft Boy 30

Qi Gunan screamed in terror at the sight before his eyes, frantically shaking his hands, thinking that he could shake them off.

The worm burrowed into his flesh, causing a bump that quickly disappeared. Qi Gunan had been tortured to the point that he thought he was no longer in pain, but this time it felt like the pain had reached his very soul. He felt as if all the flesh and blood in his body were being devoured, and he couldn't even scream. Then his consciousness slowly faded away.

Qi Chen looked at the person whose eyes were slowly becoming empty and smiled with satisfaction.

Since it's not convenient to kill him, let's just make him a living dead. After all, he's the one who's after his Qiuqiu.

He then quietly left as if he had never been there.

After leaving the water dungeon, Qi Chen's expression gradually softened. He smiled and went to Xu Qiuqiu's room, climbing in through the window once again.

This time, his steps were much lighter as he looked at the sleeping girl on the bed.

The moonlight shone on the girl's face. Her features were exquisite, her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be dreaming. A smile played on her lips. She was like a fairy under the moon, someone to be longed for.

Qi Chen's heart softened instantly. He carefully walked to the bedside and squatted down, looking at her closely. He gently brushed away the stray hairs on her forehead, his eyes tender and lingering. "Qiuqiu, I will always be with you from now on."

"I really hope Qiuqiu can always be this happy."

After saying that, he gently kissed her eyes, then stood quietly watching her, not daring to make any other movements for fear of waking her.

As dawn broke, Xu Qiuqiu gradually woke up, turning over in bed and slowly opening her eyes.

He was stunned as soon as he opened his eyes. The boy was leaning against the edge of the bed, with one hand on the side and the other supporting his head. His eyes were closed, as if he had been sleeping in that position all night.

Could it be that he slept like this all night because he was afraid of waking her up?

She looked at the boy in front of her; he had long eyelashes, extremely handsome features, and lips that made you want to kiss him at first glance.

"He's so handsome even when he's asleep." Xu Qiuqiu muttered softly, got up quietly, and found a silk quilt to cover him.

She wondered if he would catch a cold sleeping like that all night. As she thought this, she covered him with a silk quilt. Just as she was about to let go, her hand was grabbed.

Xu Qiuqiu was startled. She saw Qi Chen slowly open his eyes, his gaze still hazy from just waking up.

After recognizing Xu Qiuqiu, Qi Chen loosened his grip. "Qiuqiu, you're awake."

"Achen, did I wake you up?" Xu Qiuqiu withdrew her hand and rubbed it; her wrist still hurt a little from being pinched too hard.

Qi Chen saw her movements and instantly sobered up. He took her hand and pulled it up to his eyes to look at it. His fair wrist was covered in red marks. He felt extremely distressed. "Qiuqiu, does it hurt? It's all my fault."

"Qiuqiu, why don't you hit me? It's all my fault." He apologized while rubbing her. Back in the Valley of the Holy Healer, there were always people who would try to cause trouble for him while he was asleep, so he reflexively hit her so hard. But he didn't expect that this would hurt Qiuqiu. He was filled with remorse and wished that he was the one who was in pain.

Seeing Qi Chen so anxious that he was about to hit her, Xu Qiuqiu was touched. She had never been cherished by a boy like this before. She comforted him, "Qi Chen, it's okay. It just looks a little red. It doesn't hurt that much."

Hearing her words, Qi Chen still couldn't let it go. "Qiuqiu, wait for me."

After saying that, he quickly climbed out the window and came back in a short while later, holding a small porcelain bottle in his hand. He walked quickly to the girl.

He then took her hand again, opened the porcelain bottle, and gently applied the ointment to her fingers.

Xu Qiuqiu was captivated by his earnest gaze. His eyelashes trembled as he carefully applied the ointment, as if afraid of causing her pain.

"Chen, why didn't you go back to your room to sleep last night? Won't you catch a cold sleeping like that?" Afraid that he would feel too guilty, Xu Qiuqiu thought for a moment and changed the subject.

"Qiuqiu, I can't sleep without you by my side." Qi Chen's eyes became aggrieved as he spoke of this.

He was a little unhappy. He always felt that Qiuqiu didn't like him that much. He would feel anxious and restless if he couldn't see Qiuqiu. Qiuqiu slept well even when she couldn't see him. Thinking about this, he felt wronged and sad.

Despite the bitterness in his heart, he carefully applied the medicine for her. But when he looked up, he saw her puzzled expression and became even more annoyed. He angrily moved closer to her and bit her neck.

His fair neck instantly turned red. After biting her, he felt sorry for her and couldn't help but gently kiss the teeth marks he had just left.

"Hiss..." Xu Qiuqiu was suddenly bitten by him, and she covered her neck with her hand and took a step back. Is this kid a dog? Why does he bite people randomly?

Seeing the rather aggrieved look in his eyes, she was even more confused. She hadn't even felt aggrieved after being bitten, so why was he acting aggrieved first?

After finishing his bite, Qi Chen lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "Qiuqiu, I always feel like you don't care about me."

"?" How could she not care about him anymore? She's spoiled him every day. In the real world, she's always been pampered by others, but she's never pampered anyone. She feels she's already been very good to him.
