Do you hate me?
It's late at night.
After this busy and magical day, Xixi felt very tired. Unlike usual, she went back to her room early to sleep.
Xixi lay on the bed with her eyes closed, but she couldn't fall asleep.
All she could think of were the looks the three succubi had given her—looks of disgust, wariness, and even hatred that stabbed her heart like a knife. She turned over and buried her face in the pillow, but as soon as she closed her eyes, she could hear the hoarse words, "Don't come over here."
Why
They were obviously of the same race, so why were they looking at her like that? Was it because she was free to follow Gu Tinglan while they were imprisoned and tortured, or... Lin Mo had used other succubi to deceive them?
The more she thought about it, the more irritated she became. Xixi pulled out her phone, opened WeChat, and hovered her fingertips over the video call. But it was already two in the morning, and Xiyin was either asleep or busy eating. If she was so presumptuous as to call her on video, would she be annoyed?
In this way, the only demon who is willing to talk to her and do good for her will leave her.
Sissy didn't want this.
She sighed and tossed her phone aside.
The room was eerily quiet.
Because she has no heart, she can't even hear the sound of her own heartbeat.
She looked down at her left chest. If she were human, there should be a heartbeat there, but now there was only dead silence. All succubi had no hearts, which should be normal. But why was it that only she was often gnawed by this bone-eating loneliness?
Xixi curled up on the edge of the bed, her fingertips unconsciously clenching the sheets. This feeling of emptiness had been with her since she could remember, like a wound that would never heal.
It felt like she had already died, leaving behind only the numbness of her body struggling to survive.
This feeling of loneliness from within penetrated deeply into her empty heart. Until she met Gu Tinglan, she hadn't felt this kind of dull, suffocating emotion for which she couldn't find the reason for it for a long time.
It was so heavy that she couldn't breathe.
But now, that familiar dull ache is back.
Gu Tinglan.
She wants to find Gu Tinglan.
"Gu Tinglan..."
The name escaped her lips like a lifeline. She desperately needed to see him. Sissy shook her head, sat up, and planted her bare feet on the floor. She needed to talk to someone, even if it was just to hear him say, "Stop it," with a straight face, or to frown and scold her, "Be careful, or I'll throw you out."
She could even imagine that Gu Tinglan's expression must be particularly contradictory. There was a thin layer of red on his cheeks, his ears were also red, but his expression was very fierce. His voice was louder than usual, but the tone revealed was not scary at all. Instead, it made her feel at ease and even wanted to go further.
Humans call this pushing the envelope?
Thinking of this, Xixi suddenly chuckled.
Xixi didn't understand, but she liked every word Gu Tinglan said when he was helpless with her.
Although she was clearly saying no, those sharp eyes concealed a hint of indulgence. This contradiction made her want to push further, and Gu Tinglan... that duplicitous human, would always acquiesce to her every move.
Thinking about Gu Tinglan's expression and tone later, Xixi's heart grew happier, and a sly smile curled up at the corner of her mouth. She tiptoed through the corridor like a child about to play a prank. Moonlight streamed in from the window, casting a silvery white on her figure.
She tiptoed to Gu Tinglan's door and was about to knock when she suddenly stopped.
A low gasp came from the crack in the door.
“…Xixi…”
The voice was incredibly hoarse, like a breath forced from the throat, but it was clearly Gu Tinglan's voice, and her fingertips froze in mid-air. Gu Tinglan had never called her name in this tone before - sticky, wet, and filled with some unspoken longing.
Then came the rustling sound of fabric rubbing against each other, the slight creaking of the bed, and... the usually calm and self-controlled Gu Tinglan, moaning uncontrollably.
It was as if he was deliberately suppressing the sound in his voice, but he couldn't control it because of the pleasure, so he let out a few low moans as if in relief.
This is... calling her name
His voice was soft and his breath was unsteady. After enduring it for a long time, he finally let out a few disturbing words, her name.
When the two words came out of his mouth in full, trembling voice, he repeated them several times before he was satisfied.
This cautious approach was as if his name was some kind of sacred belief in his heart, which he found difficult to talk about but wanted to madly desecrate.
The tips of Xixi's ears suddenly burned. She should have turned and left immediately, but her feet felt rooted to the spot. When the second, trembling "Xixi" came, she even imagined a violent heartbeat echoing in her empty chest.
Xixi froze in place, the tips of her ears instantly turning red.
Why did her name sound so good when spoken by him? It was completely different from usual.
No, no, no, that's not right?
What is he doing?
Wait, Gu Tinglan.
Is the person inside really Gu Tinglan?
This is ridiculous.
Although Xixi didn't have the actual combat experience like Xiyin, she certainly knew what humans would do at certain times, but... Gu Tinglan, who usually had a cold face and would subconsciously retreat even when she approached...
But why didn't he want to go find him directly, but instead hide here and solve it secretly?
Xixi bit her lip and gathered a trace of spiritual power at her fingertips.
Invisibility.
She walked straight through the door.
The scene in the room completely stunned her.
Gu Tinglan leaned against the bed, his shirt disheveled and open, revealing his lean waist and abdomen. He supported himself with one hand behind his back, and with the other...
Xixi's eyes moved downwards, and her blood instantly rushed backwards.
In the moonlight, Xixi could barely make out what Gu Tinglan was doing. His other hand, hidden in the darkness, was magnified infinitely in her eyes. Xixi swallowed nervously, her gaze wandering, until she finally spotted her headband on the bedside table—the lavender headband she disliked and didn't want to wear.
“…Xixi…”
He closed his eyes, his Adam's apple rolling, the strands of hair on his forehead damp with sweat, and his usually stern features now tinged with lust. His slender fingers slid up and down, the movements becoming faster and faster, his breathing becoming heavier.
Xixi stood there, her legs weak and her body numb from the stimulation of his deep cry. Her mind was blank, only the raw adrenaline was surging. She had never seen Gu Tinglan like this before—out of control, obsessed, even... vulnerable.
For some unknown reason, Xixi actually felt a little shy, mixed with a bit of fear and a desire to explore new things.
He, he, this thing of his does not match his gentle appearance at all. Gu Tinglan looks very flamboyant, and this thing is also very flamboyant, but it is not the same kind of flamboyance.
When Gu Tinglan doesn't speak, people will think he is very well-behaved and delicate like a doll.
But this... in short, it doesn't look like something from Gu Tinglan at all.
Xixi even subconsciously raised one hand to symbolically cover her eyes, then quietly opened her fingers and peeked through the gaps between her fingers.
It would be a shame not to look at it. Gu Tinglan is so sexy. Wouldn’t it be a waste not to look at her?
Just as Xixi was lost in thought, the figure on the bed suddenly trembled violently, followed by a suppressed groan, and then all sounds stopped. After a few seconds of suffocating silence, Xixi saw him pull out a tissue from the bedside and tidy up the mess.
Seeing such a shocking scene, Xixi instinctively knew that if Gu Tinglan found out that he knew his secret, he would definitely throw her out.
Because this is the handle!
Who made him always look so pure and innocent, but do such a thing behind her back while calling her name? According to his personality, he would definitely be angry and embarrassed.
Her mind was already dizzy from the shock of the previous scene, her breathing gradually became uncontrollable, and excitement gradually filled the room.
Suddenly, Gu Tinglan opened his eyes abruptly and looked straight in her direction.
Xixi wanted to run away.
“…who’s there?”
Xixi was so scared that she trembled. She steadied her legs, held her breath, and silently said to herself, "Don't find me, don't find me."
If it were Xixi, who only thought about eating before, she would not feel so flustered at all, but now Xixi just felt that she was satisfied to have Gu Tinglan hold her in his arms while she slept every night. She couldn't digest this unexpected surprise for a while.
There was no movement behind her. Just when Xixi thought she had escaped and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Gu Tinglan muttering a spell.
Immediately afterwards, Xixi's invisibility was broken, and she turned around slowly like a robot.
Their eyes met.
The air froze.
Gu Tinglan's face turned pale instantly. He pulled the quilt over himself, but his voice was surprisingly calm: "When did you come in? How much did you see?"
Xixi opened her mouth, but no sound came out. Her eyes glanced down uncontrollably. Although her eyes were blocked by the quilt, the scene just now was deeply engraved in her mind.
"I, I just..." she stammered, "I heard you calling me..."
That means seeing it all.
Gu Tinglan's expression seemed to be compromise, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Do you hate me?"
"Hmm?" Xixi was a little confused.
Why do you hate him?
Xixi didn't understand why he changed the subject so strangely. Didn't he hate her? Why was it the other way around?
But Gu Tinglan's expression at the moment was very solemn, his face full of apology, and his eyes were completely devoid of his former arrogance, like someone quietly waiting for her judgment -
sinner.
Xixi didn't understand, but she didn't want to see this expression on Gu Tinglan's face. She felt very uncomfortable.
So she put aside the embarrassment of being caught, walked over to Gu Tinglan in two or three steps, stretched out her hands, and gently held up his lowered face, "I love you the most."
"Let me be clear in advance, you can't throw me out just because I caught you doing something wrong," Xixi said emphatically, "otherwise I'll be really angry."
"If I'm angry, I can't guarantee that I won't hate you. At least now, I don't hate you at all."
Hearing her gentle tone, Gu Tinglan reached out to grab her wrist, but retracted his hand just before touching it. He just rubbed Xixi's hand lightly with his face and said, "Don't you think I'm disgusting?"
"Disgusting?" Xixi shook her head. "I was so excited. I didn't expect your—"
“Hmm—”
Xixi opened her eyes wide, and Gu Tinglan's handsome appearance was reflected in her clear black eyes. His hot lips were pressed against hers, blocking her from saying anything else.
"Please, shut up." Gu Tinglan's lips only stayed for a few seconds before leaving, and he said to her almost pleadingly.
"oh."
