Chapter 361 A Feeling of Losing and Regaining [36]
In those few seconds, the man stabbed Ah Chu several more times!
At the same time, the system in Achu's mind emitted a malfunctioning electrical sound.
The world before Achu's eyes seemed to have turned into slow motion.
She saw Song Lin running towards her, along with his bodyguards.
She saw the bodyguard subdue the man who attacked her, and she saw Song Lin catch her as she was about to fall.
Finally, everything returned to normal speed.
I heard terrified screams from the people around me. Some were shouting for the police, others were shouting for an ambulance. It was very noisy.
And there was Song Lin calling her name repeatedly.
Achu was held in Song Lin's arms, and she could feel him trembling.
"Don't be afraid, Yao Yao! You'll be alright! I won't let anything happen to you! It'll be alright!"
Song Lin's voice was also trembling.
His hand was covering Achu's wounds, but she had several wounds, and each one was bleeding profusely.
Achu's snow-white dress was stained red with blood, a truly horrifying sight.
Song Lin's face was even paler than A Chu's.
Achu looked up and saw the panic on his face.
She was quite calm, though somewhat confused.
Since he started doing missions, Achu had never encountered such an unexpected situation.
The person who attacked her was ruthless; every stab was aimed at a vital spot, clearly intending to kill her.
Her body's protective mechanisms prevented Achu from feeling too much pain, but she knew she was probably going to die.
Ah Chu was still wondering if she would still get points if she left now since Song Lin's favorability rating wasn't 100% yet.
Was all the mission in this world for nothing?
And... what's going on with the system?
Logically speaking, it should be able to sense such an emergency, right?
And since she was the one who got stabbed, it seems like it was also damaged.
As Achu pondered these thoughts, her consciousness gradually blurred, and all she could hear was Song Lin's heart-wrenching cries.
She sighed, a wave of guilt and reluctance washing over her.
I'm sorry, Song Lin...
When Achu regained consciousness, she discovered that she could no longer see.
Yes, they are still blind.
She was somewhat puzzled.
What's the situation now?
Achu thought she should have returned to the system space, but she could hear the rumbling of thunder and the sound of heavy rain every now and then.
So she's obviously still outside.
Was she automatically teleported to the next mission world? Or is she still in this mission world?
Ah Chu touched her stomach; it was flat with no incision scar.
Recalling the static-like sounds in his mind after the attack, Achu called out to the system: "System? Are you there?"
Several seconds later, Achu heard the familiar system voice: [Yes, host!]
Achu breathed a slight sigh of relief.
She asked, "What's going on? Have I been transported directly to the next mission world? And am I blind again?"
The system remained silent for a few seconds before replying: [No, host. The system experienced a sudden malfunction and, after emergency repairs… transported you back to the time before you broke up with Ye Wenyuan.]
[The timeframe is shortly after Su Xingyue was discharged from the hospital due to her injury, during a thunderstorm. Ye Wenyuan asked Song Lin to accompany you so he could see Su Xingyue.]
Even someone as composed as Ah Chu was somewhat surprised to encounter this situation for the first time.
Achu: [So, I'm starting over?]
The system replied somewhat guiltily: "Yes, host."
Ah Chu accepted it fairly well; starting over was fine, it was a different and novel experience.
However, since she's already starting over, Ah Chu doesn't plan to follow the same plot as before; that would be too boring!
Achu asked the system again: "What about the man who attacked me? Did Su Xingyue hire him?"
But she also felt it was unlikely.
Su Xingyue isn't that brainless!
The system's answer only confused Achu more: "[Sorry, host, the system doesn't know either. It's probably just a bug!]"
Achu frowned, feeling that the system was hiding something.
She wanted to ask more questions.
Just then, Achu heard Song Lin calling her from outside.
"Xingyao?"
"Su Xingyao?"
Achu quickly adjusted his state.
When Song Lin pushed open the door and came in, he saw A Chu covering her ears and huddled in the corner.
Her face was pale and bloodless.
A clap of thunder sounded, and she trembled with fear.
Even the screams of fear were faint and weak.
Upon seeing Achu, Song Lin suddenly felt his heart clench, a mixture of heartache and inexplicable ecstasy.
There's a kind of illusion of losing something and then regaining it.
He didn't understand where this illusion came from, but he just wanted to follow his heart and go over to hug Achu!
"Yaoyao, don't be afraid, I'm here!"
Song Lin himself didn't realize that his voice was trembling.
Ah Chu was held tightly in his arms, almost unable to breathe.
She buried her face in Song Lin's chest, her voice muffled: "A Yuan? Is that you?"
Song Lin's breath hitched; she called him A Yuan...
Yes, he came here impersonating Ye Wenyuan!
Song Lin mumbled a reply: "It's me."
Achu immediately hugged him back, her voice trembling with tears, "Why did it take you so long to come! I was so scared, so scared!"
Song Lin gently patted her back: "I'm sorry, I ran into a little accident on the way and kept you waiting for so long."
Upon hearing this, Song Lin felt a strange sense of déjà vu.
Before he could think it through, he heard Ah Chu ask anxiously, "Accident? What accident? Are you alright?"
"It's okay, I'm fine."
Song Lin answered.
He lowered his head, looked at Achu, and couldn't help but kiss her.
Only after kissing him did I realize that he was an imposter and had crossed the line!
Ah Chu, who had just been kissed, was also stunned for a moment.
But then, as if to divert attention, Song Lin noticed that A Chu wasn't wearing shoes, and immediately picked her up and put her on the bed.
"The ground is cold, be careful not to catch a cold."
Achu was tucked into the quilt by Song Lin.
She didn't want to, and insisted on snuggling in his arms.
Song Lin felt somewhat helpless, yet secretly pleased.
He wanted to hold her, to hold her forever!
Song Lin said, "Since you can't sleep, shall I take you to the living room to watch TV?"
Achu nodded and replied, "Okay!"
Song Lin found a movie with a romance theme.
As the thunder and rain raged outside, he described the scene to Achu in a deep, gentle voice.
Achu nestled in his arms.
When Song Lin said that the female lead gently kissed the male lead, she raised her chin and kissed his lips.
They parted after a brief touch, and then she asked somewhat shyly, "Is that so?"
Song Lin felt his brain freeze for three seconds, and when it reactivated, his blood seemed to be boiling.
He looked down at Achu, whose cheeks were flushed with shyness.
The lips that had just kissed him were like ripe fruit, tempting to be picked.
Song Lin's eyes were deep and dark, concealing a wild beast that was about to be suppressed.
He heard himself say, "Yes, that's right, and then the male lead..."
Song Lin demonstrated what he meant by that through his actions.
In the dimly lit living room, on the television screen, the movie protagonists are embracing.
On the large, comfortable sofa, a tall, handsome man held a delicate and beautiful girl captive in his arms, his actions shifting from gentle demands to domineering possession.
The temperature in the living room kept rising.
Song Lin knew he wasn't a good person, and he always admitted it.
However, when impersonating Ye Wenyuan, he still managed to maintain a basic moral standard.
However, under A Chu's deliberate seduction, Song Lin's moral bottom line could be broken in an instant.
By the time he regained his senses, everything that should and shouldn't have happened had already happened...
As the thunderstorm subsided, Achu was exhausted and fell asleep in Song Lin's arms.
Song Lin also felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction, embracing A Chu as if he were holding a lost treasure that had been found again.
It was strange, but he didn't delve into the feeling.
Song Lin felt that the question he should be thinking about now was how to completely take A Chu away from his younger brother!
