Empress Dowager Yun Lian of the matriarchal kingdom, in order to save her country, binds herself to a salvation system and embarks on a journey through time and space for healing.
World 1: Th...
Hearing the noise from the two of them, Ji Huaixi kicked the bed board hard, extremely irritated: "If you're not going to sleep, get out!"
The sudden noise brought Yun Lian back to her senses.
Fu Qiyu, as if startled, suddenly shrank into Yun Lian's arms.
His eyelashes trembled as he breathed heavily in her ear.
Yun Lian subconsciously hugged Fu Qiyu, who was half her size wider.
Sensing his mental disorder, Yun Lian subconsciously used the soothing methods she remembered to try and contact Fu Qiyu's mental energy.
Upon feeling her touch, Fu Qiyu stiffened for a moment, then forced himself to relax.
His mental energy was like a tangled mess, and Yun Lian patiently helped him untangle it. By the time she finally untied the knots, Yun Lian was covered in sweat and lay in Fu Qiyu's arms.
Fu Qiyu, however, was full of energy, his eyes shining as brightly as day in the darkness.
Isn't her mental strength only at level A? How can she disperse a chaotic mental energy cluster?
Fu Qiyu gazed intently at her sleeping face.
The darkness did not affect his vision.
She was very well-behaved when she slept, her long, straight eyelashes drooping peacefully, and her small nose twitching slightly with her breathing, making her look very cute.
Two furry ears drooped on her head, as if one could see into her heart through them.
Fu Qiyu reached out and gently touched her cheek. The feel of it was 100 times better than he had imagined. It was as soft as a touch, and his heart almost sank into it.
Unbeknownst to him, Fu Qiyu had been staring at her all night.
He was also puzzled as to why he felt an irresistible urge to get closer to her this time.
Like the poppy in ancient scrolls, alluring yet dangerous.
When Yun Lian opened her eyes, she felt like she could eat a whole cow.
An intense feeling of hunger swept over me.
The dormitory was quiet; Fu Qiyu and Ji Huaixi had both disappeared.
Yun Lian glanced at the timetable. There was only a potion class this afternoon, so she could have almost no free time in the morning.
I found a dry piece of bread on the table and used it to make do.
Opening the wardrobe revealed another series of little white dresses.
"Looks like I really should go out and do some shopping."
Yun Lian muttered something to herself, casually slipped on a dress, and headed straight for the mall.
A dress that flatters your figure, buy it!
Beautiful jewelry, buy it!
Buy the matching accessories and shoes!
After Yun Lian finally finished shopping and returned to her dormitory to put things away, Lin Hanxue knocked on the dormitory door.
When Yun Lian opened the door, a flash of resentment crossed her eyes the moment she saw Yun Lian, but she quickly concealed it and gave a stiff smile.
"Yun Lian, why did you suddenly change your style of dress?"
Yun Lian's hair was styled into incredibly alluring waves, and she wore a wildcat-like, innocent-looking makeup look. Her knee-length skirt revealed a section of her slender, fair legs.
The dress she wore was conservative in the front while highlighting her excellent slender figure, and the back had only a few crisscrossing straps, revealing her smooth and delicate back.
As she moved, her beautiful shoulder blades appeared and disappeared, making her look like a butterfly fairy about to take flight, breathtakingly beautiful.
Yun Lian saw that her fingers were digging into her flesh and smiled faintly.
"Some people say that if I wear a little white dress with you, it's like I'm imitating you and it lowers your class for no reason. They even call me a copycat, so I want to change my style."
"So, now I don't think I'm lowering your standards, right? After all, we're best friends, and I don't want to embarrass you, the school beauty."
Lin Hanxue's smile was extremely unnatural. As usual, she reached out and took Yun Lian's arm, and a few strands of hair fell down with her movement.
With the cover in place, she was able to act in a way that was familiar to her.
She said with a reproachful look, "What are you saying? Don't listen to their nonsense about class or class. We are best friends. What's wrong with wearing matching outfits? They are just jealous of our good relationship, that's why they spread those rumors."
Lin Hanxue looked at the charm that unconsciously emanated from her every move, and her eyes were filled with resentment.
I wish she hadn't spread those rumors.
Lin Hanxue deliberately stared at Yun Lian for several moments, then spoke with feigned sincerity.
"Yun Lian, I still think you look better in a white dress. Besides, aren't you rabbit beastmen quite fragile? Wearing a white dress will better arouse the protective instincts of males."
Promise me you won't care what others think, and be brave enough to be yourself, okay? You look really beautiful in that white dress.
Yun Lian was almost cringe-worthy by her fake acting.
Her eyes were practically welded to her outfit today.
She showed jealousy at least three times. Does that make her words credible?
They completely treated her like a fool, and weren't even willing to act properly.
Yun Lian pulled her hand away from her arm, spread her arms and spun around, looking at herself with admiration.
"Hanxue, I've found that it's good to care about what others think sometimes. After all, I've changed my style, and I feel like I've gotten a lot more attention along the way."
Lin Hanxue followed her gaze and found that almost all the female and male beastmen along the way were staring at her.
I didn't even care that my fingers were digging so hard that blood was gushing from my palms.
It's like this again!
Why is it that Yun Lian can attract attention no matter where she is?
Why is she born with a privileged background? She can directly enter the pharmaceutical research lab through special admissions, while she can't get in even after several attempts.
Why is it that the orc she likes notices her first, even though she deliberately diminishes her beauty, she still attracts countless admirers?
This forced her to resort to underhanded tactics time and time again to drive those people away or snatch them to her side.
Lin Hanxue was thinking too much, and her face was almost distorted.
The orcs watching them whispered amongst themselves. Yun Lian smiled, but then, as if suddenly noticing something, she exaggeratedly covered her mouth in surprise.
"Hanxue, why do you suddenly look so pale?"
Lin Hanxue seemed to wake from a dream, and the mask she wore all year round revealed a kind smile.
However, the orcs who were frightened by her did not turn around, and quickly spread gossip about the different side of the school beauty in private.
Yun Lian didn't let her off the hook, her beautiful face filled with worry: "Hanxue, are you unhappy because my change of style today attracted the attention that usually belongs to you?"
Yun Lian always dressed like a pure and innocent girl, but her actions were arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable.
Now she suddenly changes her style, looking glamorous and charming but with worry and caution on her face, creating a huge contrast in an instant.
Regardless of right or wrong, the beastmen instinctively felt sorry for her.
Lin Hanxue's eyes flickered, and the curious gazes around her made her feel like she was being pricked by needles.
"How could that be? I'm so happy that you're popular, Yun Lian. Don't overthink it. Let's go, class is about to start."
Today's open class in pharmacy was open to those who were not in the pharmacy class.
Lin Hanxue only wanted to get her mentor to notice her, while Yun Lian was a student in the pharmacy class, and following her would greatly increase her chances of being remembered by the mentor.
Otherwise, she would never have wanted to walk with Yun Lian.
Whenever they walk together, people will compare them, and she doesn't like to hear any comments that Yun Lian is better than her.
