I Just Want to be a Throwaway Character - Chapter 84

Chapter 84: World 5

However, the unconscious Ji Wan had no intention of letting Huangfu Yue off the hook.

The temperature dropped during the night, and the heat in Ji Wan’s body gradually subsided.

“Ugh.” Ji Wan groaned in discomfort.

The familiar chill in her body surged up again.

Cold sweat trickled down Ji Wan’s forehead.

Even while unconscious, Ji Wan whimpered in distress.

In the small cave, Huangfu Yue easily caught Ji Wan’s faint sounds.

Like a kitten falling into water, helpless and scared.

Huangfu Yue stood up abruptly.

She took a deep breath, trying to control her strange emotions.

She turned and quickly approached Ji Wan.

A hint of nervousness and concern appeared in her eyes.

She knelt down beside Ji Wan, looking at Ji Wan’s pale face.

Huangfu Yue gently lifted Ji Wan and placed her hand on Ji Wan’s forehead.

Feeling Ji Wan’s forehead temperature, which was significantly higher than usual, a flicker of panic crossed Huangfu Yue’s eyes.

“Princess, wake up, don’t sleep.” Huangfu Yue propped Ji Wan up against her chest.

She frowned slightly, gently stroking Ji Wan’s cheek to try to wake her up.

But Ji Wan couldn’t hear anything anymore.

Ji Wan’s mind was in a state of chaos.

In her consciousness, there seemed to be a clear and cold voice gently calling her.

Who is it?

Why does the voice sound so familiar?

Huangfu Yue looked at the inexplicable little water droplets forming at the corners of the unconscious Ji Wan’s eyes.

She was at a loss for a moment.

Is she crying?

Huangfu Yue didn’t know why, but a strange dull pain appeared in her heart.

“Ugh, cold.” Ji Wan mumbled.

Unconsciously, she pressed her face against Huangfu Yue’s chest and rubbed it gently.

Huangfu Yue looked at Ji Wan’s exposed skin and instinctively hugged Ji Wan tightly.

She transferred her body temperature to her little by little.

Ji Wan felt as if she was being held in boiling water, her strength being drained away little by little.

In her muddled consciousness, she seemed to have arrived at a magical place.

Ji Wan felt that the place she was in was like a celestial palace in the heavens, exquisite and beautiful.

Her perspective kept changing.

Sometimes it was a sea of flowers, sometimes a delicate study, sometimes a pavilion…

Ji Wan felt something strange.

Even though she didn’t know where this was, she felt a sense of familiarity with every plant and tree here.

Suddenly, the scene changed.

A figure appeared in Ji Wan’s line of sight.

Dressed in white, her back alone gave a sense of her stunning front.

But Ji Wan had no time to care about her face.

Feeling a constant ache in her heart, Ji Wan’s tears flowed uncontrollably.

There was a familiar name, and she was about to blurt it out.

But in her illusion, she couldn’t speak for a long time.

Ji Wan was anxious to remember.

Soon, the woman in white moved, walking forward step by step.

Watching her gradually move away.

Ji Wan wanted to desperately keep this person.

Soon, that figure turned around, but it was only a familiar side profile.

Not even a full face.

But just a side profile made Ji Wan’s tears gush out like a flood.

Ji Wan in the illusion wanted to grab her sleeve.

But in the blink of an eye, nothing was left…

And Ji Wan was completely plunged into a void.

“Wuyan… don’t… don’t go.” Ji Wan mumbled incoherently, her voice filled with grievance and despair.

The tears at the corners of Ji Wan’s eyes accumulated more and more.

But Ji Wan’s consciousness in her mind was instantly emptied by a strong force.

In the end, only Ji Wan’s faint mumble remained.

However, Ji Wan’s voice was so soft that it was as if she hadn’t said anything.

Huangfu Yue heard Ji Wan’s faint sound.

She leaned closer to Ji Wan, wanting to listen to her voice.

But in the end, she only heard the girl’s mumbling of “don’t go…”

A complex expression flashed in Huangfu Yue’s eyes, and she gently wiped away Ji Wan’s tears with her thumb.

Does she trust her that much?

Suddenly, the girl trembled.

Her face wrinkled in discomfort, and Ji Wan unconsciously opened her eyes.

She only saw Huangfu Yue’s blurry side profile under the firelight.

After realizing who it was, Ji Wan felt a little at ease.

She couldn’t help but become attached to Huangfu Yue.

“Yue, cold.” The girl’s voice was fragile.

She closed her eyes in discomfort.

The memories in her mind seemed to have been instantly emptied by some strange thing, and it hurt a lot.

And it also came with this strange problem of her broken body.

It was like being thrown into a cold spring without wearing anything.

Huangfu Yue didn’t say anything, she looked at the groaning Ji Wan.

Finally, she seemed to have made a major decision.

She took a deep breath, and a deep meaning appeared in her eyes.

If she didn’t give the girl warmth.

She might… she remembered the consequence.

Huangfu Yue no longer hesitated.

She gently tore off her single layer of clothing, and then the thin inner layer.

And then the only remaining piece on Ji Wan’s body.

Looking at the different scenery on the girl, Huangfu Yue didn’t have much of a reaction.

She bent down and pulled Ji Wan into her arms, hugging her tightly.

Skin to skin, she transferred warmth to Ji Wan little by little.

Huangfu Yue tried to warm Ji Wan with her own body temperature.

At this moment, she only wanted the girl in front of her to live.

And feeling Huangfu Yue’s warmth, the trembling Ji Wan slowly calmed down.

Her face gently rubbed against Huangfu Yue’s neck.

And then she reached out and wrapped her arms around this only source of warmth.

Huangfu Yue felt the touch of her skin, and her body instantly stiffened.

She frowned slightly, and her cheeks couldn’t help but flush a little.

Looking at Ji Wan’s dependent look, sleeping soundly in her arms.

Huangfu Yue’s heart beat faster.

She hugged Ji Wan tightly with a sense of helplessness.

This was only for the Dragon’s Lair treasure, it was definitely not her momentary heartbeat.

The dawn’s light gradually illuminated the earth.

Birds chirped constantly on the branches, and water flowed down the mountainside little by little.

Ji Wan opened her eyes a little in a daze.

Looking at the surrounding environment.

The silent, dim cave was empty, with only the traces of extinguished flames in the center.

Ji Wan endured the pain that appeared on her body, a delayed reaction from being chased.

She struggled to support herself and slowly sat up.

Huangfu Yue’s outer coat was draped over the girl.

The outer coat, which was a normal size, was clearly much longer on the girl, showing her petite size.

The outer coat carried a scent that was familiar to Ji Wan, which made the girl feel particularly at ease.

Ji Wan’s hand instinctively tightened the coat wrapped around her.

Ji Wan’s mind hadn’t fully woken up yet.

Her eyes, like a nervous fawn, kept scanning the surroundings.

Ji Wan felt a dull pain in her head, and her memories were a little jumbled for a moment.

Where is this?

Didn’t she faint in the water yesterday?

Ji Wan looked at her fair palms in confusion, a little lost in thought for a moment.

Suddenly, a drop of water slipped onto her palm, and then one after another.

Ji Wan touched her cheek in confusion.

Are these her tears?

Strange, why am I crying?

Ji Wan looked bewildered, trying to raise her hand to wipe away the tears that were inexplicably flowing.

Don’t cry, why are you crying?

Ji Wan didn’t understand why her heart was filled with sadness.

In the dark and empty environment, only the girl was silently shedding tears alone.

It was as if she had been abandoned by the world.

When Huangfu Yue returned with some fresh wild fruits and easily identifiable medicinal herbs.

She saw Ji Wan sitting alone on the ground, wearing a coat that was much too big for her, and silently crying.

The girl’s crying face, bathed in tears, had a unique kind of beauty.

But in Huangfu Yue’s eyes, there was only an indescribable feeling of discomfort.

Huangfu Yue gently put down the things in her hands and approached Ji Wan.

She knelt in front of Ji Wan and gently wiped away the tears at the corners of Ji Wan’s eyes with her thumb.

“What are you crying for? Am I not here?” Huangfu Yue’s voice was deliberately softened, afraid of scaring the girl.

Ji Wan’s eyes gradually focused.

But the fragile look of her tear-reddened eyes made one’s heart tremble.

When Ji Wan saw who was in front of her, she no longer held back.

Ji Wan’s tears flowed even more, and she unconsciously leaned closer to Huangfu Yue, burying her face in her chest and crying.

“Yue, ugh… Yue…” Ji Wan’s crying was incoherent, but she could vaguely hear that she was calling her name.

Looking at the girl who was trembling and crying against her chest.

The dampness seeped through her thin single layer of clothing and soaked into the skin underneath.

Huangfu Yue felt a different emotion.

At the same time, she also had a strange feeling.

Ji Wan wasn’t crying because of her.

Who was she crying for?

Ji Wan seemed to be grieving for someone through her.

Realizing this, a complex expression flashed in Huangfu Yue’s heart.

But her hand still gently hugged Ji Wan’s slender and fragile waist, gently comforting her.

Huangfu Yue deliberately ignored the inexplicable jealousy that surged up.

Who Ji Wan was missing had nothing to do with her, right?

She was protecting Ji Wan now only because she needed her to help her get the Dragon’s Lair treasure to overthrow her current life.

They were in a hostile relationship.

Huangfu Yue tried to explain her inexplicable emotions to herself.

But the look in her eyes as she looked at Ji Wan still carried a hint of obscurity and a hard-to-detect sourness.

Finally, Ji Wan’s tears stopped.

Ji Wan looked at Huangfu Yue’s half-wet shoulder in a daze.

Huangfu Yue didn’t care about her shoulder being soaked by Ji Wan.

Her expression was indifferent, “Are you done crying? Come and eat something if you’re hungry.”

Huangfu Yue’s voice carried coldness and distance.

She deliberately ignored the resistance in her heart.

She couldn’t have a deeper relationship with Ji Wan.

This wasn’t good for either of them.

“Thank you,” Ji Wan said softly to Huangfu Yue.

After Ji Wan had relieved her inexplicable sadness, she looked at Huangfu Yue’s shoulder, feeling a little embarrassed.

She didn’t notice Huangfu Yue’s distance for a moment, although Huangfu Yue had always had that attitude towards her.

After she had relieved her emotions, Ji Wan gently moved while wearing Huangfu Yue’s outer coat.

Wait?! This feeling…

Feeling the touch of her skin rubbing against the fabric.

Especially the feeling of a vacuum in a certain place, which made Ji Wan’s face turn red to the roots of her ears.

What happened yesterday?

Why… why is she… not wearing… clothes?!

Seeing the girl suddenly blushing and pulling the coat she was wearing tightly.

When she looked at her with a dazed and helpless expression. Huangfu Yue also suddenly felt a little shy.

Especially in the morning when she woke up, she was still holding Ji Wan tightly in her arms.

Remembering the unintentional contact between the two, Huangfu Yue took a deep breath.

She wanted to get rid of her inexplicable thoughts.

She was not a beast, but her mind would still occasionally flash with that dazzling white.

It made one’s gaze be involuntarily attracted and produce strange thoughts.

“Your clothes were all wet yesterday, I took them off for you.” Huangfu Yue tried to control her complex emotions, trying to make her tone sound indifferent and casual.

And Ji Wan was already so shy that she didn’t know what to do.

She could only blush and look at Huangfu Yue with her tear-reddened eyes.

Ji Wan’s voice was soft and full of shyness, unconsciously carrying a hint of tempting huskiness.

“I… I know, um, Yue, can you give me my clothes?”

Huangfu Yue felt her back, which was facing Ji Wan, stiffen.

A strange heat surged through her limbs and bones.

Her heart couldn’t help but pound like a drum.
