Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Princess ~
Su Yuan was originally worried about why Yan Zhou suddenly came to ask him about something. Could it be that Yan Zhou discovered something? The next second, he was forced to divert all his attention because of the person he grabbed by the hem of his clothes.
As Pei Yuanfei's chest rose and fell violently several times, Su Yuan clearly felt the astonishing anger and the pain that could not be concealed at all from Pei Yuanfei.
The look in the other person's eyes when he looked at him was filled with a kind of pity that was suppressing something.
While Su Yuan was still a little confused, Pei Yuanfei's heart was already churning.
He was wondering why he had not decided on him before, but after meeting Su Yuan, he was completely sure of his identity as his direct disciple.
He originally thought that it was because Su Yuan was a healing card, which just happened to suit that person's taste.
Now I realize that it is indeed satisfactory.
But it just suits the other party's dirty and shameless intention!
Thinking about Su Yuan's slightly pink cheeks and the strange atmosphere when he went to pick her up in the afternoon, Pei Yuanfei clenched his fists, and the blue veins on them bulged with a crackling sound.
Pei Yuanfei gritted his teeth and said with difficulty under Yan Zhou's strange gaze, "He is not that person's boyfriend."
"He was threatened." Pei Yuanfei let out a long breath, his expression full of hatred for his own incompetence, "He agreed to that person's unreasonable demands for my sake, after that person was attracted to him..."
As he finished speaking, Pei Yuanfei's palms made a crackling sound several times.
Su Yuan’s head was buzzing: “?” Huh???
He was indeed threatened at the time, but not because of this.
The main target used to threaten him was Yan Zhou on the opposite side.
Su Yuan objected in his heart, but he soon became very uncomfortable because of these thoughts that subconsciously popped up in his mind.
Su Yuan subconsciously glanced at Yan Zhou who was separated by a door.
Su Yuan looked at the scene in front of him with trembling eyelashes. He found the situation so strange that his heart trembled inexplicably for several times.
Pei Yuanfei, who was actually not the real boss at all, was extremely angry at the moment. Not only was something swelled up in front of his eyes that made him go black, but he was also gritting his teeth due to something that had stimulated him.
Yan Zhou, the main character, was obviously shocked by Pei Yuanfei's words and his body was stiff. However, he swallowed the words in his throat when he was obviously preparing to ask more questions about this matter. He looked as if he was embarrassed to continue asking questions because of Pei Yuanfei's incompetent rage at the moment, and was very worried about touching Pei Yuanfei's sad memories.
Su Yuan tightened his fingertips, he felt embarrassed for Yan Zhou.
Su Yuan felt that this development was very strange and weird. His eyelashes trembled and a hint of evasion subconsciously appeared on his face.
And his uncomfortable look in Pei Yuanfei's eyes almost became strong evidence to confirm his guess.
Pei Yuanfei couldn't help grinding his teeth.
If Yan Zhou, an outsider, was not still here, he would have been unable to control himself and would have said something to Su Yuan immediately.
When Yan Zhou reacted, a hint of disappointment appeared between his brows, which he couldn't even explain.
Ever since he left that person's office, his heart has been inexplicably confused, and he keeps thinking about the last look at the table. So even though it was so late and he couldn't sleep for some reason, after he found Pei Yuanfei back in the dormitory, he immediately came to this disciple who already knew that person very well, wanting to ask about that "boyfriend".
However, he didn't expect that the answer he got in the end would be like this, a secret topic that he, an outsider, was too embarrassed to ask about.
Yan Zhou, who originally had many questions to ask, couldn't help but feel a little sympathy when he saw the green hat on Pei Yuanfei's head that was almost turning into reality.
His spontaneous empathy prevented him from continuing to poke at Pei Yuanfei's self-esteem at this time.
The scene fell silent for a moment, with only Pei Yuanfei's occasional heavy breathing being heard.
As Su Yuan's nose turned red, he couldn't help but scratch the ground with his toes.
Su Yuan originally thought that if the situation was really bad, he could bite the bullet and contact the protagonist.
But he has now completely given up on the idea.
The situation is now completely unclear because of Pei Yuanfei's words.
Su Yuan pursed her lips.
He should not contact the protagonist.
If the protagonist found out that not only was he the one in the office at the time, but Pei Yuanfei was talking about him at the moment, and he had also been hiding from him several times in close proximity and beside other people...
Su Yuan felt uneasy just thinking about it.
Pei Yuanfei actually wanted to ask some specific questions about Yan Zhou, but when he saw that Su Yuan looked like he wanted to faint, he didn't ask.
"Do you have anything else to say?" When Pei Yuanfei spoke again, he was trying to drive Yan Zhou away.
His tone at this time was really not very good, but Yan Zhou understood very well that the other party was like this because of the green cloud above his head.
However, inexplicably, when Yan Zhou realized that Pei Yuanfei must be eager to contact that "boyfriend", his eyelids suddenly twitched several times.
As Yan Zhou stepped back toward the door, he hesitated for a moment. He looked at Pei Yuanfei's face, which was almost tangible, and after thinking for a second, he said, "Do you think there's something wrong with that guy?"
Su Yuan, realizing that the protagonist had keenly smelled something, paused for a moment.
"What's wrong?" At the moment, that person was a powder keg to Pei Yuanfei.
"I just have a strange feeling. The academy seems to have become a little strange." Yan Zhou's words were not very clear at first. Some confusing thoughts flashed through his eyes. "He suddenly became hostile to me."
It was not like this during the school anniversary square.
But when he went to the office again, the hostility was very strong, and one could even say that they were extremely unhappy with him.
This hostility made him a target.
Su Yuan, who probably knew the source of this hostility, curled his fingertips.
"When I was about to leave the academy, I was always inexplicably tripped." Yan Zhou's sixth sense told him that his situation was closely related to the person's hostility towards him.
There is a certain probability that he would behave like this because that person doesn't want to let him go.
But it was precisely this hostility that caused the other party to reveal some of his flaws, allowing him to vaguely discover something unusual on campus.
"And there's something wrong with the perfume on that table."
The clear information Yan Zhou finally gave made Su Yuan stunned.
Su Yuan's eyes blinked as he recalled the past. He remembered that after the person put him under the table, he did take the perfume and sprayed it before Yan Zhou came in.
It seems that it is because——
Su Yuan's face unconsciously felt a little hot.
He had been too nervous and too scared before, and was sweating a lot. The woman tried to cover up the smell of his perfume.
"There is nothing wrong with the perfume itself, and it won't cause any harm to people, but the material used in it is quite special, and it comes from a very sinister replica product." Yan Zhou paused, "Heartless Wood."
"Heart-Losing Wood?" Pei Yuanfei's face changed drastically when he heard this. "Are you sure? Wasn't the Heart-Losing Wood stolen from the Card Master Guild three years ago?"
"I should be right. There is indeed the scent of the Lost Heart Wood Flower in that perfume." Yan Zhou's expression was a little solemn. "The Lost Heart Wood Flower only comes from the Lost Heart Wood. Since the Lost Heart Wood was lost, there has been no trace of the Lost Heart Wood Flower on the market."
Yan Zhou said these words thoughtfully, and a plot emerged in Su Yuan's mind.
This perfume does not appear in the plot, but the lily of the valley flower is mentioned.
After Yan Zhou dealt with the man in the card world, they would inevitably need to clean up the mess he had made and properly deal with the people in the academy who had turned into puppets.
The Card Master Guild mobilized many healing card masters, but they were all at a loss as to how to deal with these puppets and could not think of a way to restore their sanity.
In the end, it was the protagonist who solved the problem.
The solution is the flower of the Lost Heart Tree. This flower that grows from the Lost Heart Tree can just restore everyone's dementia.
Su Yuan's heartbeat quickened for a few seconds.
If I could get this perfume, it might be of some use at a critical moment.
"Just be careful." Yan Zhou reminded Pei Yuanfei who was lost in thought.
Yan Zhou originally wanted to say that the person who chose the other party as his personal disciple should not be that simple, but he suddenly remembered with a strange expression that the other party obtained this status by sacrificing her boyfriend, and he was speechless.
When Yan Zhou left, he was very polite and considerate and took the initiative to help the "cuckold" Pei Yuanfei close the door.
Pei Yuanfei, who was originally deep in thought, immediately lost interest in his thoughts when he and Su Yuan were the only ones left in the room.
Or to be more precise, what he is doing now is what he cares about most.
Su Yuan was caught off guard when he heard Pei Yuanfei's anxious and painful question, "What did that bastard do to you?"
Su Yuan felt as if the other party was looking him up and down carefully.
Then I heard the other party's words of self-blame, "How can I deserve you to do this for me!"
Su Yuan felt very uncomfortable as he did nothing for Pei Yuanfei.
In fact, Su Yuan should have refuted Pei Yuanfei's wrong speculation, but if he refuted it, he would not be able to tell Pei Yuanfei the truth.
Su Yuan, who could neither betray Yan Zhou nor think of any other excuse, could only vaguely admit under Pei Yuanfei's distressed and regretful gaze that he was indeed threatened by the other party because of the other party.
Su Yuan heard the other party clench his fists even tighter, and veins all bulged out.
But along with it, there was also the inevitable and almost unbelievable sound of the other person's heartbeat.
"...I will definitely treat you very well." Pei Yuanfei's voice was indescribably hoarse.
Su Yuan was stunned for a moment, but still nodded.
Under Pei Yuanfei's moving, twisted and painful questioning, Su Yuan told him about the person who treated his mouth.
"Did he trick you into kissing him?" Pei Yuanfei raised his voice.
Su Yuan withdrew the hand that was holding Pei Yuanfei's clothes. The other party's body was heaving too much now. He said in a low voice, "It's treatment."
Pei Yuanfei was heartbroken, but he could do nothing about what had happened. He was afraid of affecting Su Yuan's mood, so he could only suppress the overwhelming depression and bitterness in his heart and digest it with difficulty. But he still said with jealousy and discomfort, "You are just too naive, you believe everything others say."
Su Yuan felt that it was very strange for Pei Yuanfei to say this.
After all, the other party doesn't know the truth.
Pei Yuanfei believed whatever he said.
"You must never do this for me again!" Pei Yuanfei said to Su Yuan in a very serious tone, suppressing the pain.
Su Yuan nodded repeatedly from the bottom of his heart.
But the other party obviously didn't believe it, and the words he said were both happy and painful, "You're pretending to be good to please me."
Su Yuan: “?” Brother, please stop thinking!
Even though Su Yuan had fallen into darkness after letting go of Pei Yuanfei, he could still feel Pei Yuanfei staring at his mouth.
After thinking about something, Pei Yuanfei suddenly changed the subject, "Well, this is treatment."
The person who was jealous just now was now muttering, "This is not a first kiss." He looked like he had already figured it out and comforted himself.
Su Yuan's face was steaming again.
Especially when the other party was jealous and extremely persistent and said to him, "You can't treat this as your first kiss."
Su Yuan blushed and nodded almost dizzily.
"What else did he do to you?" Pei Yuanfei continued to ask.
Su Yuan shook his head, "I didn't do anything."
"Then..." He asked cautiously and nervously, "Did he hold your hand?"
Su Yuan didn't expect the other party to ask this: "...Yeah."
"You held hands with me, and did it with him as well?"
Su Yuan wasn't sure whether he could sense a break in Pei Yuanfei's voice, which had risen a little bit.
But Pei Yuanfei's tone was so strange, full of jealousy, that Su Yuan felt inexplicably guilty.
What does it mean to hold hands with him?
As if it was something special and unusual, they often held hands only because he couldn't see and needed to activate the virtualization skill frequently.
When Pei Yuanfei spoke again, Su Yuan seemed to see the other party biting a tissue while speaking in grievance.
"Did he hug you?"
Su Yuan nodded slightly uncomfortably.
The next second, Su Yuan, who was in darkness, regained his sense of light.
Because the young man in front of him suddenly came over and hugged Su Yuan.
"Is this how you hug me?" The sourness in Pei Yuanfei's words seemed to be rising to the sky.
When he hugged Su Yuan from the front, he buried his head in Su Yuan's neck and rubbed it back and forth as if seeking comfort pitifully.
Pei Yuanfei's slightly short hair brushed against Su Yuan gently, causing a tingling sensation on Su Yuan's neck.
While he was rubbing his head, his nose didn't stop and kept sniffing.
"No!" Su Yuan was about to push the person away when he denied it.
But before Su Yuan could make any move, Pei Yuanfei had already moved very quickly and picked him up in his princess arms again.
"Is this how you hold it?" Pei Yuanfei asked again.
Pei Yuanfei looked at Su Yuan's face, which was wrinkled but still exceptionally beautiful, and his heart felt inexplicably unbalanced.
"It seems not." He judged like this, but his head seemed to be hit by a hammer. The jealousy made him want to defeat the bastard. He said in a daze, "Do I hold him better than him?"
Seeing that Su Yuan frowned and didn't seem to want to answer his question, Pei Yuanfei's mind went blank and he continued, "This is a princess hug. I really think you are a princess, so I want to hug you like this. He definitely hasn't thought about it this way."
He said pitifully, rubbing his head again, as if a tail was wagging, "Princess, please choose me, okay?"
*
This farce was cruelly stopped by Su Yuan, whose ears were red, saying, "You don't want me to hate you, do you?"
Su Yuan felt Pei Yuanfei's listlessness, and thought that this sentence was really refreshing to say, and quickly told Pei Yuanfei the plot that was about to unfold.
Pei Yuanfei, who was originally ready to take action and had some complaints about the man, finally turned serious after hearing this.
Pei Yuanfei also realized the seriousness of the matter, especially after combining it with Yan Zhou's reminder just now.
The bell that Su Yuan mentioned that could gradually deprive people of their sanity was most likely made from the mind-destroying wood.
"Who is planning to turn everyone in the academy into his puppets so that he can successfully enter the card world by having everyone give up their cards at the same time?" Pei Yuanfei repeated the story with a look of deep thought in his eyes.
"Yeah." Su Yuan nodded repeatedly.
Pei Yuanfei's expression changed for a few seconds, then he turned on his light brain.
When the person seems to have taken the initiative, the best way to break the deadlock is to seek help from outsiders.
Pei Yuanfei's expression suddenly became a little ugly, "The optical brain has no signal now."
The optical computer that was able to transmit that person's information before is now unable to use its communication function. This can almost be regarded as an ominous warning.
“It could be caused by the remaining [Copy of Echoes] from the previous copy, or it could have been tampered with by that person—”
Pei Yuanfei's voice sounded thoughtful, but he paused when he met Su Yuan's face which suddenly turned pale.
If it was really that person who restricted the optical brain signal, then it undoubtedly meant that his action was about to begin and all his preparations were in place.
Pei Yuanfei glanced out the window. It was already pitch black outside, and the silence was so eerie that it was scary.
"You stay in the dormitory first. I'll sneak out to see the situation on campus." Pei Yuanfei was not planning to let Su Yuan return to his sea of consciousness. If something really happened to him outside, Su Yuan who stayed in his sea of consciousness would probably be completely trapped.
Su Yuan was a little hesitant.
He has the ability to virtualize cards, so in theory, he should be able to help Pei Yuanfei.
But that person could see right through him.
Su Yuan was not sure whether the puppets spread throughout the academy could see through him through some kind of connection.
"Okay, just take a nap. I'll be back when you wake up." Pei Yuanfei could still smile and comfort Su Yuan at this moment, "Maybe I can find a place where we can climb over the wall and get out."
Su Yuan, whose physical fitness was very poor and would definitely be a hindrance if the virtualization didn't work, finally nodded. Before Pei Yuanfei left, he said to him worriedly, "Then you should be careful."
The noise Pei Yuanfei made was very light, and he closed the dormitory door very gently, but Su Yuan's heart still beat uncontrollably.
Of course Su Yuan had no intention of sleeping. He sat quietly on the sofa waiting.
Without any contact with Pei Yuanfei, Su Yuan's eyes returned to the darkness they should have. The surroundings were too quiet, and Su Yuan couldn't help but fall into a little panic.
His calves rested stiffly on the sofa, listening to his own abnormal heartbeat and relying on the connection with the card master for a sense of security.
The passage of time seemed to suddenly become very slow. Su Yuan finally forced himself to adapt to this anxious waiting, but in an instant his breathing stopped.
Su Yuan's expression suddenly became panic-stricken.
The special connection between him as a card and card master Pei Yuanfei suddenly disappeared.
Finally, other sounds were heard in the room. It was the sound of beads of cold sweat on Su Yuan's forehead falling onto the sofa.
Did something really happen to Pei Yuanfei?
Su Yuan wanted to comfort himself, trying to tell himself that it might be caused by the special [Copy Echo], but his heart was still uncontrollably alarmed, making his heart tremble.
Su Yuan pursed her lips and stood up from the sofa with a pale face, groping carefully in the darkness.
With no sense of light and no one around to help him, this was the first time Su Yuan truly experienced what it was like to be blind.
In the short walk from the sofa to the door, Su Yuan accidentally bumped into many things, and his legs were a little sore.
But the inexplicable fear overwhelmed all Su Yuan's feelings at the moment.
He touched the door which had already gone cold, leaned his back against it, and sat down with his whole body weak as the force exerted force.
Su Yuan put his ear against the crack of the door, so that he could sense the movements outside as quickly as possible amid his growing fear.
A feeling of coldness continued to spread from the area near the door. Su Yuan felt the biting cold and broke out in cold sweat, and his heart was pounding non-stop.
——Dong
When the sound of the bell rang faintly in Su Yuan's ears, Su Yuan's heart almost felt like it was not his own.
This is not a normal bell sound.
The pendulum forged from heartless wood could not have transmitted the energy over such a long distance.
It was some kind of card power that caused the bell, which was supposed to echo in a small area, to resound throughout the entire academy.
In the dead of night, when the entire academy was asleep, everyone unknowingly heard the strange bell sound that could make them lose their minds, and they were one step closer to becoming that person's puppet.
Even though he knew the special nature of the card creatures, which prevented him from turning into a puppet when the bell rang, Su Yuan, sweating profusely, still covered his ears out of fear.
The next second, Su Yuan's heart contracted violently.
He heard the sound of voice-activated lights turning on outside.
Su Yuan's heart was beating very fast and he was extremely uneasy.
He held his breath and listened to the footsteps approaching, his breathing becoming very disordered.
When the door was successfully opened by the person outside, Su Yuan stood up hastily and felt that he must look very embarrassed in the eyes of the other person.
He spoke with inexplicable panic, "Pei Yuanfei?" His voice was trembling.
"Well, don't be afraid, I'm back."
The moment Pei Yuanfei's voice clearly reached Su Yuan's ears, Su Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He hurriedly asked the other party worriedly, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Pei Yuanfei responded to him while helping Su Yuan tidy up his slightly wet hair.
Su Yuan lowered his voice and asked the question that concerned him most, "Have you found--" a way to get out?
Su Yuan's voice, which had been slowing down a little, suddenly froze.
The person in front of him seemed to notice that his legs were a little sore, so he gently supported his shoulders.
Su Yuan could feel the warmth coming from the other person's palm, but——
The resulting light sensation did not occur.
It was still pitch black before his eyes.
The person opposite is not Pei Yuanfei!
When Su Yuan's heartstrings were tense, he heard the other party ask very gently and patiently, "What did you find?"
