My Sister Never Said She Was a Creepy Tale - Chapter 97

Gu Nanqiu’s reaction truly confused Yue Yiyue. Based on her understanding of the other woman, she shouldn’t have focused on the identity of the online friend, rather than first sharply sensing the unusual nature of the word “medicine.”

And then she should have been thinking about who in the room sent that message.

Besides, she and this online friend had absolutely nothing going on!

Yue Yiyue looked at Gu Nanqiu sitting next to her with an indescribable expression, as if to say, Do you even know what you’re talking about?

Her own mind was already so muddled, and here Gu Nanqiu was seriously examining these irrelevant details.

And Gu Nanqiu was completely off-topic.

Being looked at with such an expression, Gu Nanqiu showed no trace of guilt and instead protested, “I’m just concerned about you—”

“We can talk about that later. Our top priority right now is that you have been designated as the ‘medicine’!” Yue Yiyue emphasized the word “medicine.” “Do you understand what might happen next?”

At this point, Yue Yiyue lost some control, grabbing Gu Nanqiu’s shoulders and shaking her. “What if the person is some kind of lunatic and drains your blood dry?”

“What if that online friend’s sister also finds out and captures you?”

Tears spilled from Yue Yiyue’s eyes like broken strings of pearls. Her nerves, which had been tight for days, snapped at this moment, leading to a loss of control.

A teardrop landed on Gu Nanqiu’s hand, like a blazing spark that solidified into a tiny, exciting burn mark on her skin.

Yue Yiyue looked so beautiful like this.

It turned out that the negative emotions plaguing Yue Yiyue were all about her—

Gu Nanqiu looked down at the tear on her hand and then raised her hand.

The tear quickly fell into her mouth; it was a little salty.

But the emotion contained within was exceptionally pure.

“Yiyue, you don’t have to worry.” Gu Nanqiu tilted her head, looking at her forearm. This was the first time Yue Yiyue had left a mark on her since their reunion.

She had to preserve it well. She would secretly peel this piece of skin off and store it properly later. This didn’t sound too bad.

What would Yue Yiyue do?

Would she lock her in this room to ensure her safety?

Only allowing her to look at and stay with her?

Or something more extreme, like chaining her up at home?

It seemed she had bought a set before and stored it in the utility room. How could she make Yue Yiyue see it?

Gu Nanqiu’s fingertip brushed under Yue Yiyue’s eye, lightly touching the dark circles. She asked softly in a sweet voice, “It sounds like it’s very dangerous outside. Yiyue, you wouldn’t lock me in the room to protect me, would you? Not allowing me to go out.”

“Although that would truly be safe, I still hope to face things with you.”

“Even if it means death, as long as I can be by your side, I don’t care.”

Following Gu Nanqiu’s words, Yue Yiyue felt like she had opened a new door, but her mind quickly rejected the idea.

If she did that, Nanqiu would be very bored here.

She had thought about it before, but she was still the one spending money.

However, if she were financially independent later, she could indeed take this step.

The situation was different now.

Did Gu Nanqiu foresee something?

Why would she talk about death?

Could it be that she had already realized something?

Yue Yiyue could feel the difference between Gu Nanqiu and herself, but she had already decided to accept everything no matter what.

But what if Gu Nanqiu had sensed that her own death was approaching?

In a flash of insight, Yue Yiyue looked at the message on the phone, and it overlapped with the novel in her memory.

How could she have forgotten this?

In the original novel, the supporting character “Yue Yiyue,” whether out of jealousy or perhaps love—an overly complex emotion—couldn’t stand Gu Nanqiu going out and interacting with others, so she chose to make a trade with a monster.

As for what the trade was, Yue Yiyue would have known after delivering that one takeout order.

But she had been inexplicably chased to this place by the fish head.

Staying here for too long, being too comfortable by Gu Nanqiu’s side, she had almost forgotten this whole plot point.

The original novel’s plot was supposed to happen in her third year of university.

It seemed that because she kept interfering with the plot, was the world intending to end her storyline early?

If so, everything made sense.

She carefully rubbed Gu Nanqiu’s hand. “If that’s the case, then it really is terrible.”

“Nanqiu, tell me, if I did something bad, would you hate me?”

“Or rather, could I beg you not to hate me?”

Yue Yiyue whispered her plea, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed the softness she had tasted many times.

There was no lust, only guilt.

The kiss was not sweet.

Gu Nanqiu, who could perceive emotions, tasted a kind of bitterness.

It carried a slight reluctance to let go.

Gu Nanqiu expertly responded, her nimble tongue tasting the slightly higher temperature of the other’s mouth.

Entangled, pulling, then playfully landing on her brows and eyes, finally returning to those rosy lips.

Yue Yiyue gripped Gu Nanqiu’s arm weakly. Whenever she felt overwhelmed, she squeezed slightly, and Gu Nanqiu would slow the pace, giving the clumsy Yue Yiyue, who only knew how to press her lips against hers, a moment to breathe.

Of course, it would only be for a fleeting moment.

The next second, Gu Nanqiu would chase after her, tasting Yue Yiyue through and through, bit by bit.

Sensing that Yue Yiyue was nearing her limit, Gu Nanqiu wiped Yue Yiyue’s moist lips. “That was hard work—thank you, Yiyue, for giving me this reward.”

As usual, Gu Nanqiu was ready to stop there and change the subject, but she looked with confusion as Yue Yiyue’s trembling hand unbuttoned the first button.

The second…

The third…

The cotton homewear was quickly stripped off, falling to the floor and making intimate contact with the dark floor mat.

“Yiyue—” The bath towel nearby was snatched up and then placed over Yue Yiyue. “It’s not necessary.”

“Yiyue, I don’t think we need this between us.”

“I hope that after everything is over, you feel our relationship can advance, and then we can explore pleasure together.”

Not now, while Yue Yiyue was still somewhat confused.

Yue Yiyue would definitely regret it later. It would be too much of a loss if she ran off to Ye Qiu out of shyness then.

“Yiyue, I’m already very happy just having you with me.” Gu Nanqiu’s tea-brown eyes held only Yue Yiyue’s small figure. The love hidden in her eyes was bottomless, making Yue Yiyue willing to leap into the river of love named Gu Nanqiu.

“You are my most precious treasure.”

The fluffy bath towel touching her skin brought a trace of reason back to Yue Yiyue.

Holding the bath towel, Yue Yiyue stood still. “I… I’m sorry.”

Gu Nanqiu maintained her usual smiling appearance. “Why are you apologizing?”

I’m the one guiding you here, tempting you to fall with me.

You should have had a beautiful life, but in the end, you are only destined to be entangled with a monster.

For all eternity, never separated.

Gu Nanqiu raised her hand. “Yiyue, good girl, my dear good girl. Whatever decision you make, as long as you are by my side, that is the best decision.”

Her dark, long hair fell onto Yue Yiyue’s hand. The feeling of being tightly bound by something returned.

But Yue Yiyue didn’t dislike it; she was even somewhat willing.

She allowed herself to fall into Gu Nanqiu’s embrace. “Yes, I will.”

She didn’t want to be separated from Gu Nanqiu.

So what if she went against the will of this world?

As long as there was a slight chance.

No one could take Nanqiu away, unless Nanqiu herself chose to leave.

The person who came back from A City, was it?

The person who sent the message, was it the consciousness of the world?

Or the Main God?

Or Greed?

Their purpose was to guide Gu Nanqiu to the end of the novel, so Gu Nanqiu would be fine in this plot.

Yue Yiyue listened to Gu Nanqiu’s steady heartbeat, and she made a certain decision.

Nanqiu would live a very, very good life in this world.

Even without her, she would live a very good life.

When the appointed time arrived, Yue Yiyue looked at Gu Nanqiu sleeping soundly on the bed, a silver chain locking her to the bedpost.

She had deliberately switched to the master bedroom the day before, so the bathroom access would make it easier for Gu Nanqiu to move around.

For meals, she had instructed Yu An to come by in the evening. The key to the lock was on the living room table.

Yue Yiyue looked down at the empty medicine shell in her hand, quietly sighing in relief, and silently apologized to Gu Nanqiu in her heart.

She had contacted the forensic doctor for this medicine yesterday.

The forensic doctor said this dosage could knock out her wife for five hours, and probably Gu Nanqiu for four hours.

The forensic doctor also reminded her that if she wanted to do anything, she should do it quickly while she had the chance. If she wanted to run away, she should forget about it.

The forensic doctor then walked away, humming something about being with her no matter how far away they went.

Yue Yiyue looked at her sister sitting in the living room. She squatted in front of her sister. “Do you think I’ll see you after I die?”

“Oh, right, you’re just my hallucination,” Yue Yiyue muttered to herself. “But you’re so obedient during this period.”

“I’m sorry I didn’t realize you were Gu Nanqiu before.”

“I used to secretly wonder what you’d look like when you grew up.”

“Sister, thank you for accompanying me in the past. Now, I’m going towards my future.”

She subconsciously reached out to touch her sister’s hair, then remembered something and withdrew her hand. “I love you…”

Even though I can’t say it directly, I truly… love you.

Even with fragmented memories, the answer was written in her heart the moment she first saw her, a heart that beat faster than usual.

Including their first meeting under the Osmanthus tree.

She couldn’t call it love at first sight, because at the moment she fell in love, Yue Yiyue hadn’t actually clearly seen what Gu Nanqiu looked like.

Speaking of which, Gu Nanqiu’s birthday was coming up soon, February 14th, a romantic holiday.

She had bought the gift already.

She hoped she could return and give it to her in person.

It didn’t matter if she couldn’t come back.

Yue Yiyue opened the door and looked back at the home they had furnished little by little over half a year, collecting cute things piece by piece.

Every corner held traces of their time together.

Pulling down her hat brim, Yue Yiyue steadily stepped into the elevator.

A sweet male voice rang out: “Welcome home, esteemed owner—”

The display screen in the elevator was playing advertisements, just like the one she had taken before she arrived here.

A ding-dong sounded, and a sweet female voice said: “Have a safe journey—”

Had that been there before?

She didn’t know; she had never paid attention.

As she stepped out, the auntie exercising nearby greeted Yue Yiyue with a kind smile: “Oh, little girl, heading out?”

Yes, she was heading out.
