Chapter 50 Senior 17
Although she was curious about what was happening outside, the housekeeper's advice before leaving was like a wake-up call. Wei Jingan wiped her hands and returned to Li Jingjing. She sat on the chair next to her and noticed something slipping away outside the door with her keen hearing.
She shifted her position and sat on the edge of the bed.
He pinched the corner of Li Jingjing's sleeve with his fingers.
Li Jingjing fell asleep after taking just a shallow sip of wine. The wine was only as deep as the tip of her thumb nail, and it was the lowest-proof fruit wine. I really didn't know she had such a low alcohol tolerance.
Something was still sliding outside the door.
Wei Jingan felt that she was a little drunk, otherwise why would she be hallucinating?
But it was immediately disproven, and it was not an auditory hallucination.
She had seen with her own eyes the giant mutated octopus... and the two soft tentacles that approached her for unknown reasons.
Wei Jingan covered his head and shook it a few times, and the sound outside the door disappeared.
She breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that she had overthought it.
She turned her attention to Li Jingjing. Her cheeks turned red from drinking, and she was so groggy that she started talking in her sleep.
The mumbling was so soft that it was hard to hear clearly, but a few words could still be heard clearly.
She said:
"I'm really fed up with studying. Why can't I decide for myself what I want to study? Now I've been admitted to Qingdao University, but it's a last-place major! What future can I have? Why can't I choose the major I like..."
"Dorm leaders have to take care of them like a nanny? Do they have broken arms or legs? They're all adults, why should everything become the dormitory leader's responsibility?"
"Damn Liu Zilin... She actually told the instructor that I was the dorm bully... She's the one being unreasonable, okay? Go to hell!"
Wei Jingan shook the cursing Li Jingjing: "Wake up? Are you having a nightmare?"
Li Jingjing didn't reply to her. Those sticky malicious words kept coming out of her mouth. Wei Jingan looked at her worriedly. Li Jingjing looked like a drunk at the moment, but there was also something weird about her.
Finally, Li Jingjing calmed down.
Wei Jingan touched her face and hands and let out a long breath.
"You rest here, I'll get you a cup of sobering soup," Wei Jingan whispered close to Li Jingjing's ear, then opened the door and left.
…
The thing outside the door almost made Wei Jingan faint.
A handsome man with gold-rimmed glasses perched on his straight nose stood next to the escalator on the second floor. He stood in the shadows. There was no light in the empty hall, only a faint glow from the moonlight seeping in from the window.
The man's fluffy curly hair gave him a hint of gentleness, but beneath his wispy hair lay a pair of dark eyes devoid of white. The most unacceptable thing was the several tentacles extending from his back, each as thick as a man's thigh. They were black and as filthy and terrifying as mud.
Several tentacles crawled along the escalator.
Wei Jingan couldn't control her tears and gripped the door handle tightly, resisting the urge to rush in. Li Jingjing was still inside, her back against the door panel, trying to find anything to protect herself.
After all, octopuses don't have human appearance.
Men are more terrifying.
Her lips trembled as she tried to negotiate with him: "Hello... I'm here to celebrate my friend's birthday. I'm leaving right away. I will never tell anyone what I saw... I swear!"
Lin Yanqing stood on the escalator, looking down at Wei Jingan who was almost fainting. Her slender white fingers gently rested on the escalator, and her eyes looked over the closed door at the person lying inside. Malice that was invisible to the naked eye radiated outward like silk threads, and the monster nourished by malice became stronger.
He has been in a bad mood recently. A group of people sent by the research institute to the nameless island to explore unknown creatures have lost contact, and Zhang Canying has become obsessed with a popular male star. He can't say anything in front of her, and his emotions have accumulated to a certain extent, and he revealed his true colors when he was least prepared.
He pursed his lips, fearing that he would scare his brother's sweetheart to death. His mind was struggling with what words to say. The girl with her legs weak on the ground seemed to him to be a very young and timid child. She quietly swept the vase on the cabinet at the door to the ground. When the crisp sound rang out, she suddenly looked at him.
The eager look in her bright eyes made him slightly stunned. Does his brother like girls like this?
Looks very brave.
It's not what it seems at all.
Wei Jing'an hid the fragments in her palm with shaking hands. The sharp porcelain pieces cut her fingers, and blood flowed out. She just felt that she had been extremely unlucky recently. What kind of thing had happened to her?
The falling vase made a loud noise. On the one hand, I hoped that the housekeeper who heard the noise would come to check in time. Since this humanoid monster appeared in the villa, the housekeeper was very likely to know about it.
On the other hand, if the housekeeper did not arrive in time, she would have to rely on herself to insert the porcelain piece into the approaching tentacle with great force.
As for why not hide in the house.
She didn't think that the solid door panel would remain strong in front of the monster, which would smash it into pieces like an ant.
Wei Jingan is ready.
She mustered up the courage to look up, her unclear vision falling on the monster's face, taking in the man's handsome features.
etc?
Wei Jingan's hand trembled.
The housekeeper just said: The eldest young master is resting upstairs. Miss Wei, please don't walk around and disturb his sleep...
Her eyes were wide open with disbelief and surprise. The porcelain shard in her palm had cut her fingers, leaving long bloody marks. She saw the thick tentacle expanding in front of her, followed by a monster that had lost its human appearance, with its body covered in muddy, wriggling flesh.
Wei Jingan's eyes rolled back and she fainted.
This was the solution Lin Yanqing came up with - to use the pressure of his original body to knock his brother's sweetheart unconscious, and let his brother figure out what happened next.
…
Wei Jing'an's body was covered in tentacles of various colors, all of which shared a common characteristic: they were trying to wrap her up and send her into the ferocious maw. At that moment, a black and red tentacle rushed to her side and rescued her...
She hugged her savior with tears in her eyes, even though it looked no better than those evil tentacles.
Cold forehead.
Wei Jingan suddenly opened her eyes.
Lin Yanzhou took back his hand from her forehead and said worriedly, "You're finally awake. Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Wei Jing'an stared at him with wide eyes, as if staring at an unknown monster. She examined him carefully, but found nothing wrong with him. Then she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Ahem... I'm fine. What's wrong with me? Where is this place? Why are you here, senior?"
After asking a series of questions, Lin Yanzhou did not answer immediately. He placed the warm water on her lips and placed one hand on the back of her head: "Drink some water first."
Wei Jingan was helped up by him, and the warm water droplets moistened her dry lips. She took a few sips and shook her head, and Lin Yanzhou put down the cup.
His tone was filled with an intimacy that left Wei Jingan bewildered, as if she had fainted and woken up to a completely different world. He naturally tucked the strands of hair from her ears and wiped the water from her lips with the backs of his fingers. "...You have no recollection of this at all? If I had known you couldn't hold your liquor, I shouldn't have given you any. You passed out at the door, but luckily you weren't hurt. I was so scared when I found you...I'm glad you're okay."
He touched her forehead, revealing the heartache of a lover.
Wei Jingan just felt more dizzy.
She paused and asked, "...Where's Li Jingjing?"
Wei Jingan found that she was not lying on a hospital bed, but in a room full of masculine atmosphere.
Lin Yanzhou: "I went back to school a long time ago. You were in a coma for two days."
Two days?!
Wei Jingan lifted the quilt and saw the brand new pajamas that had obviously been changed. Her cheeks flushed so red that she couldn't ask who had changed the clothes.
This should be Lin Yanzhou's room, not because of anything else, but because the room is filled with a fragrance that fascinates her.
She didn't know her sense of smell had become so sharp.
Although the man was someone she had secretly loved for a long time, when she was alone with him in a private space, especially his bedroom, Wei Jingan was like a gourd with its mouth sawed off, biting her lower lip and unable to utter a word.
Fortunately, Lin Yanzhou stood up at this time, stood by the bed, and said, "Since you're awake, I'll call the doctor in to check you out. The kitchen is preparing lunch, and your clothes are in the closet. They were sent by your roommate. For the time being... for your health, can you stay here for a while?"
He said, “You are in very poor health.”
Wei Jingan listened blankly, clenched her fingers, thought for a moment, and shook her head: "Don't bother me, senior. I'll just go back to school."
For some reason, she instinctively wanted to stay away from this place. She remembered drinking Lin Yanzhou's blood. Although the housekeeper said it was red wine, there was no taste of alcohol in the liquid. How did she faint?
My memory is actually fragmented.
I always feel that there is something weird everywhere.
Wei Jingan sat up, shook her head, and her eyes fell on Lin Yanzhou, urging him to leave so she could change out of her pajamas. The cotton nightgown wrapped around her tired body. If she were in the dormitory, she probably wouldn't even get up and would just fall back asleep.
But she couldn't stay here any longer.
Wei Jingan instinctively thought that Lin Yanzhou was a gentle person and would immediately comply with a girl's request, but he didn't. Instead, he walked over to her, bent down and said, "Jingjing, don't you understand what I mean?"
"Ah...what?"
Wei Jingan blinked helplessly, feeling nervous for no reason.
Lin Yanzhou laughed. "If any other girl fainted in my house, I could just call the hospital. How could they sleep in my room? But don't worry, the quilt and sheets are all new. I haven't slept in them yet. But even so, you can't let strangers touch them..."
The man's handsome face was magnified infinitely before her eyes. Wei Jingan could even see the fine hairs on his forehead. His deep pupils were like whirlpools, and his dense, curly eyelashes fluttered gently a few times. His cold and indifferent face was instantly replaced by tenderness, and he uttered trembling words with expectation: "My birthday gift is just cookies. How can—"
"Jingjing, can you be my girlfriend?"
