The School Beauty's Four Boyfriends, Part 29 (The End)
"Explain yourself first, what's going on with you?"
Qi An'an pulled over a wet wipe and used it to wipe the bright red stain from Yan Xingcun's lips.
"My head hurts," Yan Xingcun replied weakly, stretching out his arm.
Qi An'an nestled in his arms, surrounded by the faint scent of his shower gel.
His breathing was heavy and hot, as if he were in a state of extreme unease, and for the first time it was so sticky, like he was being coquettish.
Qi An'an let him hold her, and even asked considerately, "Would you like to lie down on the bed for a while?"
Yan Xingcun obediently nodded, and as she lay down on the bed, he pulled her back into his arms, holding her like a doll.
Qi An'an looked up, staring intently at him, and asked frankly, "Where did you take Xiao Hei?"
Yan Xingcun's dark eyes lost some of their luster, but he still had the mind to joke with her, "Why don't you look for it?"
"..."
As the two remained silent, a voice suddenly appeared in Qi An'an's ear—
"Mission progress 99%, congratulations host, you are one step closer to success."
Qi An'an clearly saw Yan Xingcun take Xiao Hei away, but at this moment, she also clearly heard its reporting voice, coming from an unknown direction.
It was clearly Xiao Hei's voice, but it didn't sound like it would; it was stiff and monotonous.
At the same time, Yan Xingcun's body suddenly trembled, and he pressed her into his arms even harder.
He heard it too.
Qi An'an's hand wasn't fully healed yet, and it was throbbing slightly because of his restraints.
She sighed, "Ji Yu is dead."
Only if Ji Yu dies will her mission progress suddenly increase dramatically.
Yanxingcun just disappeared mysteriously. Could he have gone to commit murder?
Yan Xingcun pursed his lips, gently pressed his forehead against hers, and pulled her tightly into his arms, asking abruptly, "Are you leaving?"
Even without the little black ball, her set of rules was still in operation.
It turned out he had no way to stop her from leaving.
Qi An'an said, "I can leave anytime I want."
After she finished speaking, the boy who was hugging her became even stiffer, his body tense.
"Will you leave?" he asked.
She took a deep breath; her right hand felt a little uncomfortable.
Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly saw several strands of red silk thread nimbly wrapping around her arm.
She blinked, stared intently, and after realizing it wasn't her imagination, exclaimed in astonishment, "Yan... Yan Xingcun!"
She was too familiar with Xiao Hei's healing abilities, so she knew very well that the glowing red threads were healing her wounds.
Moreover, that energy was more abundant and powerful than Xiao Hei's.
Yan Xingcun lowered his eyes and looked at her, his voice hoarse, "An'an, I don't think I'm a normal person either."
His words are pointless.
Qi An'an had prepared herself mentally, but she was still taken aback.
A thought flashed through her mind: if Yan Xingcun insisted on keeping her here, she would most likely not be able to leave.
When did you become like this?
"After you were injured." Yan Xingcun coughed lightly, his thin lips, which had just been bright red, now turned somewhat pale.
"you……"
As soon as Qi An'an opened her mouth, his expression suddenly changed, and he pulled her back into his arms.
The change came suddenly; a golden light enveloped everything from all around, its oppressive force almost suffocating.
A white figure appeared in the golden light. Qi An'an was all too familiar with that crisp uniform!
Quick Transformation Bureau employee uniforms!
Her gaze rose and landed on the man's face.
With short, flaxen hair, striking and well-defined features, and turquoise eyes like crystal-clear icebergs, a chilling aura emanated from him.
On his left chest, the golden wings on the badge were particularly striking.
She had seen this badge on the forum before, and many people speculated that he was the director of the Quick Transmigration Bureau.
But what popped into Qi An'an's mind was that name—
“Cen...Ji”.
As she uttered the person's name, several blurry images surfaced in her memory.
Upon hearing the two words she uttered, both Cen Ji and Yan Xingcun's expressions changed.
"Yes, I am Cen Ji." Cen Ji stepped on golden light, displaying a somewhat divine aura, but when his gaze fell on Yan Xingcun, it was instantly enveloped in an overwhelming chill. "An'an, do you want to come back with me, or do you want to... be trapped here for the rest of your life?"
For employees of the Quick Transmigration Bureau, a lifetime is not long, but if they are forcibly trapped, that's a different story.
Moreover, Yan Xingcun has already shown his desire to control her.
Based on his understanding of her, he would choose to leave immediately.
Even as the golden light appeared, a layer of red mesh barrier was already in place, blocking Cen Ji from the other side.
Qi An'an turned to look at the person beside her, gently moving her healed right hand.
Yan Xingcun once again felt a splitting emotion within him, a trace of confusion appearing in his eyes, which then instantly became clear and calm.
"Can you take me away?"
Qi An'an got up, stood by the bed, and looked up at the tall figure opposite her.
As if unaccustomed to being looked down upon like this, Cen Ji stopped on the floor. "Well, even without the system, I can still take you back."
But before that, he had to kill 001.
With a wave of his hand, the golden light surrounding him swallowed up the barrier that was blocking him, and a powerful killing intent spread throughout the room. A sharp golden light even struck towards Qi An'an's forehead!
After he appeared, Qi An'an never relaxed, and she nimbly dodged the attacks.
At the same time, she was protected by a thread-like red light, which helped her block the menacing golden light.
This is a statement that should be kept.
He was standing behind her, silently protecting her with red light.
Qi An'an glared at Cen Ji, her voice firm, "You want to kill me."
Cen Ji's eyes were deep and he replied in a low voice, "Only by killing you can I take you away."
"An'an, don't believe him."
Qi An'an heard Yan Xingcun's hoarse voice behind her.
Cen Ji hated Yan Xingcun. The moment the thought arose, another exceptionally violent golden light surged toward him, baring its fangs and claws, as if it wanted to slowly torture him to death.
But all the attacks were blocked by Yan Xingcun's barrier.
He gazed at the man in the white uniform opposite him, and had a vague feeling that this kind of confrontation between the two had happened far too many times. He could deal with Ji Yu, but he couldn't defeat Cen Ji. It was best to avoid his sharp edge...
"Cough..." A large amount of blood spilled from the corner of Yan Xingcun's mouth.
Qi An'an glanced back at him, and before Cen Ji could make another move, she suddenly said, "You killed me, Cen Ji."
As she finished speaking, Cen Ji's expressionless eyes trembled, and he didn't look at her or say anything for a long time.
His reaction corroborated Qi An'an's words.
When the golden light struck, a similar image flashed through Qi An'an's mind: she was cut to pieces by the golden light, and blood flowed down from the high steps. The scene was very eerie.
"But you're right here, aren't you? I never intended to hurt you, An'an. I'll explain everything to you when we get back." Cen Ji looked up again, his turquoise eyes unwavering.
But Qi An'an inexplicably felt that Cen Ji was not someone who could be reasoned with, and that his calm exterior was just a cover for his inner madness.
“I will go back, but I don’t need you to take me.” Qi An’an said firmly. “Also, your appearance in my mission world, doesn’t that count as violating the employee code of conduct? Does being ranked first mean you can do whatever you want? I’ve really learned something new.”
Cen Ji stared at her quietly, as if he hadn't listened to her at all.
The atmosphere in the room was pushed to its most tense point.
Cen Ji blinked and said in a flat voice, "An'an, you always say things I don't like to hear. Why don't you ever trust me?"
With such a handsome face, speaking words like a wronged woman, anyone would soften their heart.
However, Qi An'an only became more vigilant and defensive, because her mind was too tense and every muscle in her body felt sore.
"An'an, relax, everything will be alright."
Yan Xingcun gently pressed against her back, placed his hand on her shoulder, and half-embraced her. His low, husky voice seemed to have a magical power, soothing her tense heart.
She caught a glimpse of Cen Ji making a sound out of the corner of her eye, so she reached out and hugged Yan Xingcun, instinctively pulling him away!
"An'an, you still chose him!" Cen Ji's turquoise eyes lost their gentle protective color, revealing an icy coldness.
Qi An'an felt as if her eyes were about to be pierced by the golden light. A hand pressed down on the back of her head, and she leaned against Yan Xingcun's chest.
"Buzz..."
Her eardrums were ringing, and the whole world seemed to be slowed down. Then a vortex appeared in front of her, distorting everything, and her consciousness was sucked away in the next second.
In the blink of an eye, Qi An'an came to her senses and found herself in the hall.
She reached out and braced herself against the white wall beside her, feeling completely exhausted, as if her brain was being struck hard with a hammer.
She failed to complete her mission and was seriously injured in the world, which naturally had some impact on her physical body.
She leaned against the wall and took a deep breath, suddenly feeling the intense pain rapidly receding.
She felt as if she were enveloped in an invisible warm current, or as if she were in someone's embrace.
That comforting force allowed her to relax.
Qi An'an didn't know how long she had been standing there until she realized that everyone in front of her was staring at her in astonishment.
It should be said that we are looking through her to see what's behind her.
She turned her eyes and saw that countless threads emitting a faint red glow were wrapped around her body, gently enveloping her.
She slowly turned around and saw the red threads finally converge, twisting into an even more powerful red torrent, disappearing into nothingness.
Is it... Yan Xingcun?
The red threads receded from her body, yet seemed to linger on something, lingering around her fingertips before slowly disappearing into the air.
What is that?
"I don't know!"
"Take a picture!"
"Holy crap, that's amazing! Does Qi An'an have powerful connections?"
"What exactly is this?"
Qi An'an also wanted to know what exactly happened!
If Ji Yu can be silent, then Yan Xingcun is definitely not just Yan Xingcun!
In fact, she already had an answer in her mind: the main system.
It was just healing her body.
Qi An'an quickly took a few steps forward and reached out to grab the last piece of red thread.
"Don't go."
As soon as she spoke, the slowly receding silk threads actually stopped.
However, it did not speak on its own initiative.
It was as if they were waiting for her to speak.
Before she could even open her mouth, the entire tower suddenly shook.
"Damn, which big shot is going crazy?"
"Is this ever going to end! I only heard that the upper levels could feel the commotion before, but now the whole tower is shaking!"
"I envy the big shots who can pull off such a grand spectacle even without a system..."
"Those must be some of the people on the ninth floor, right?"
"Speaking of which, they've been quite active lately. I saw them in the lobby last time."
"You can't just make a scene like that!"
Resentment filled the hall. Qi An'an staggered slightly and almost fell, but the red silk thread wrapped around her again, holding her tightly and stabilizing her.
"Come with me." A deep, magnetic voice came from an unknown direction, reaching Qi An'an's ears directly.
"Mmm," she replied.
The red thread, which had been so polite and refined just moments before, instantly surrounded her and swept her away.
Once everyone had regained their footing, they looked back at the spot where she had been standing, but there was no one there anymore.
"Wait, so what was that red thread on Qi An'an's body just now?"
"The forum says...that's the main system!"
"??? What the hell!"
"When the main system punished a certain big shot on the leaderboard that time, someone saw it; that red line was the manifestation of the main system's energy!"
"What? The main system has punished people before? Who was it, and why?"
"Shh..."
After that, everyone kept their mouths shut and dared not discuss it anymore, but the thirst for gossip in their eyes grew stronger and stronger.
So, Qi An'an was just punished by the main system...?!
What serious crime did she commit?
Nobody knows.
Another loud bang rang out, and the hall erupted in complaints.
Whether it's the bureau chief or the main system, when will they be able to get rid of that lunatic on the ninth floor?
If an earthquake were to strike every now and then, who could withstand that!
