After Transmigrating into a Book, I Was Entangled by a Crazy and Beautiful Villain - Chapter 27

Song Linlin gently turned her head to look at her, but she was only facing a back view, only able to see the back of the other person’s head with its full head of silver hair.

Her neck was throbbing with pain; the forced kissing and biting were heavy-handed and clearly intentional.

She probably wouldn’t be able to show her face tomorrow.

Song Linlin lay flat on the bed, at a loss for what to do. She really wanted to poke Chi Qianning’s back, but her inner nervousness held her back.

As a result, she could only lie on the bed in a daze. Song Linlin recalled what she had said and felt that the other person’s anger was quite inexplicable.

I just asked a question, why did she suddenly get angry, and so mad at that…

Upon further reflection, Song Linlin suddenly felt relieved. It seemed Chi Qianning was inherently ill-tempered. She was fierce from the very beginning and even wanted to kill her.

However, she had become easier to get along with later on, which had almost made Song Linlin forget her previous awful personality.

The trigger for her anger this time was probably the assumption that she wanted her to leave?

Song Linlin felt this was a massive injustice. She had just asked casually; how did it get so misinterpreted?

Having someone powerful around offered so much security. Spending every day with Chi Qianning for this time, she had almost gotten used to it.

With Chi Qianning, she didn’t have to clean, didn’t have to worry about safety, and could stick close to a beauty. Song Linlin would have to be crazy to hope she would leave soon.

Furthermore, the initiative in this matter wasn’t even in her hands. Whether or not to leave depended entirely on Chi Qianning’s mood. She didn’t have the ability to resist. If Chi Qianning wanted to stay, Song Linlin couldn’t refuse.

Even if she decided to leave at some point, Song Linlin wasn’t in a position to stop her. Someone that powerful, once she decided to truly go, how could a simple request to stay stop her?

Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to spend every day messing around with her was completely in the other person’s hands.

The more Song Linlin thought about it, the bigger her headache became. Staring at Chi Qianning’s back, she could only quietly bite her fingernails, thinking up a strategy.

Ignoring it was definitely impossible. Going to sleep with a misunderstanding would only make things worse. Since people have mouths, she definitely needed to defend herself in this situation.

But how should she start the conversation?

She wanted to speak several times but ultimately hesitated and swallowed the words back. The bedroom was unusually quiet; she could only hear her own breathing. Chi Qianning’s breathing was light and shallow—hard to hear unless one was close.

After lying there for half an hour, staring blankly, Song Linlin couldn’t stand it anymore. She plucked up her courage and reached out to tug at the other person’s clothes.

She didn’t dare use too much force, only gently pinching a corner of the fabric and giving it a light pull. She knew Chi Qianning would definitely feel it. She whispered the other person’s name: “Chi Qianning?”

The sound was airy, like a whisper, but it was still clearly audible in the quiet room. Moreover, Chi Qianning’s hearing was exceptionally good, so she naturally sensed the carefulness of the person beside her.

Song Linlin waited for her answer, but the only response was silence, as if the other person hadn’t heard at all. In reality, she just didn’t want to reply.

“Oh dear…”

Song Linlin sighed softly, helpless. She shifted her body closer, rested one hand on the bed, and brought her head closer to Chi Qianning’s ear. She continued in a low voice: “Are you still angry?”

“No way, please don’t be angry, okay?”

As Song Linlin spoke, she tried to pull at her with her hand, attempting to get her to turn around and face her. “Don’t stop talking, I didn’t want you to leave…”

Chi Qianning listened to the incessant babbling by her ear and the hand that kept tugging at her. The hand had very little force; at most, it just messed up the fabric on her shoulder.

Grasping the disruptive wrist, Chi Qianning turned her head slightly. Song Linlin was very close, barely a hand’s distance away. Their eyes met, and a hint of surprise flashed in Song Linlin’s eyes.

It’s not easy. This person finally is willing to look at me.

Song Linlin immediately continued: “Don’t be angry, okay? Look how much it hurts where you bit me, and I haven’t gotten angry at you.”

Chi Qianning let go of the wrist she was holding, looked at her for several seconds, and then spoke: “I’m not angry anymore.”

“Really?” Song Linlin didn’t quite believe her and leaned closer to ask again.

Chi Qianning really wanted to roll her eyes at the person in front of her but ultimately held back. “I said I’m not, so I’m not.”

Hearing that tone, Song Linlin quietly sighed in relief. The other person had the presence of mind to be annoyed at her, so it seemed she was almost truly not angry anymore.

“Oh.”

Song Linlin nodded and withdrew her hand. Now that she was sure the other person wasn’t angry, being this close felt a little awkward. She moved her head back a bit.

Chi Qianning’s red eyes focused on Song Linlin’s neck. The fair skin was covered in marks left by the bites—there wasn’t a single clear spot, and they looked very conspicuous.

“Still hurts?” she asked, looking away.

Song Linlin didn’t immediately realize what she was asking when she heard the question. Only belatedly did she remember that the other person had been staring at her neck.

She touched her neck and said, “Are you asking about here? Of course it hurts. It hurts so much.”

Who bites like that? It didn’t hurt this much even when she broke the skin to suck blood before. Fortunately, Song Linlin was quite resilient and managed to stop herself from pushing her away.

Now that Chi Qianning seemed stable, Song Linlin finally dared to complain about her behavior and glared at her indignantly.

Chi Qianning certainly noticed the other person’s emotions, but she wasn’t about to apologize. Instead, she stubbornly looked away, refusing to meet Song Linlin’s gaze.

“You…”

Provoked by this reaction, Song Linlin forcefully reached out, cupped her face, and turned her head back. “No, you need to make these marks disappear. I have to go to morning classes tomorrow! I can’t leave the house like this.”

However, just as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized something was wrong. Chi Qianning had just calmed down. Would doing this provoke her again?

Song Linlin nervously looked at Chi Qianning, whom she had turned around. Thankfully, the worst-case scenario she had envisioned did not happen. Chi Qianning merely spoke awkwardly: “I know. Let go.”

Although she looked very unwilling, the result was ultimately good.

Song Linlin obediently released her hands. Chi Qianning raised her arm, and her fingertips touched the neck covered in red marks. Her fingers were still cold, which somewhat relieved the stinging on the skin.

Immediately after, a cool sensation washed over her. The marks on the neck disappeared at a visible rate, quickly restoring it to its original state. The continuous pain also completely vanished.

Chi Qianning slowly withdrew her hand and said, “It’s done.”

Song Linlin couldn’t see what it looked like, but since the other person said it was fixed, it must be resolved.

Feeling much better, she lay back in her original position. After all this fuss, she was starting to feel sleepy. She turned to the person next to her and said, “Then I’m going to sleep. I have a lot of things to do tomorrow.”

Chi Qianning also wasn’t in the mood for any more trouble. She gently hummed in response.

Late at night.

Song Linlin had long been asleep. The room was quiet, with only her shallow breathing continuing steadily.

Chi Qianning lay flat on the bed with her eyes open. At her level of power, she didn’t actually need to sleep. Before, it was only because Song Linlin often slept for a whole morning, and she was bored, so she indulged in sleeping a few times.

Now, her heart felt utterly chaotic, unable to calm down. Song Linlin next to her was sleeping so soundly, which gave her a strong urge to push her awake.

In the end, she suppressed the urge, because she suspected that even if Song Linlin was woken up, she would quickly fall back asleep.

Chi Qianning reflected on what had happened earlier and felt it was baffling. Why had she been so angry then?

Regardless of whether the other person was happy about it or not, whether she stayed or left, the other person had no choice but to passively accept it. The anger was truly inexplicable.

She stared at Song Linlin. In truth, she was face-blind when it came to human appearances. As long as the features weren’t bizarre, in Chi Qianning’s eyes, they basically all looked the same.

She relied entirely on the unique scent of each person to distinguish them, and Song Linlin’s scent was genuinely very fragrant—a kind of inherent attraction.

Song Linlin was a Pure Yin constitution, and she herself was a creature born from the convergence of pure Yin and evil qi, with the corpse of a silver snake as the catalyst.

This combination was indeed very suitable for dual cultivation. Her absorbing Song Linlin’s magic power was also helpful for recovery. However, Song Linlin was too weak. Dual cultivation could only enhance Song Linlin’s power and didn’t have much effect on her.

Moreover, even if she did nothing, her power would naturally increase effortlessly every so often. All she needed was a place to pass through the vulnerable period.

Even during the vulnerable period, it didn’t mean Chi Qianning was truly weak. During the time she spent with Song Linlin, her physical condition improved every day. Except for the very first day, she no longer bothered to absorb that pitiful amount of the other person’s magic power for recovery.

Given all this, why would she get so angry over an unconscious question from the other person?

This was a situation Chi Qianning had never encountered. She had been through a lot. Since her birth, lacking so-called morals yet possessing innate powerful strength, she had done everything according to her own will, young and impulsive, causing a lot of trouble and constantly fighting various humans, regardless of whether she could win.

Afterward, all those who had provoked her died out, and she felt there weren’t many left who could fight her, so things suddenly became dull. Since then, she had lived in seclusion deep in the mountains, rarely venturing out again.

Now, this unprecedented situation left her confused and even frustrated. Coupled with Song Linlin sleeping soundly, Chi Qianning still couldn’t resist giving her a push.

Song Linlin groggily opened her eyes and saw Chi Qianning in front of her. The other person clearly hadn’t slept yet and asked with some annoyance, “Song Linlin, how can you sleep?”

“Huh?”

Song Linlin rubbed her eyes, looking at her strangely: “I don’t have to take the college entrance exam, why wouldn’t I be able to sleep…”

“Don’t talk. It’s the middle of the night. If you can’t sleep, I’ll lull you to sleep.”

Song Linlin pulled Chi Qianning’s head into her arms and patted her back. “There, go to sleep!”

She started humming a song Chi Qianning didn’t understand. Before long, just like last time, Chi Qianning still hadn’t fallen asleep, but she had lulled herself back to sleep.

Chi Qianning: …
