The Female Lead Keeps Breaking Her Own Persona - Chapter 28

Fang Yumeng was woken up by the phone ringing and sat up quickly, picking up her phone. Seeing it was not yet four o’clock, she said crossly to Qu Anruo, “Qu Anruo! Look what time it is!”

“Didn’t I become homeless?” Qu Anruo said, sniffing. It was a little cold outside. She had forgotten to bring a coat when she left and was now stamping her feet to keep warm.

Hearing the nasal sound in Qu Anruo’s voice, Fang Yumeng grabbed her overcoat, went out to open the door for Qu Anruo, and threw the coat over her. “Didn’t you have my key?” Fang Yumeng said, yawning.

Qu Anruo put on the coat and followed Fang Yumeng inside. Fang Yumeng turned on the light and saw the gauze on Qu Anruo’s neck. “How did this happen?”

When Fang Yumeng came closer to Qu Anruo, she suddenly smelled pheromones: “Hey, wait, why do you smell like an Alpha?”

She covered her mouth and said, “Did you succeed?” But after saying it, she looked at Qu Anruo’s distressed appearance and felt something was wrong. If she had succeeded, shouldn’t she be with Gu Jingyun now? Why was she here looking for her?

Qu Anruo sat on Fang Yumeng’s bed with a serious expression: “I have good news and bad news.” Fang Yumeng saw that she still had the mood to keep her in suspense, picked up a pillow, and threw it at her: “Hurry up and tell me.”

“The good news is I confessed, and the bad news is it didn’t succeed.” Qu Anruo sighed as she spoke.

Fang Yumeng sat beside her and asked in disbelief, “How is that possible? Gu Jingyun seemed to like you a lot.” After Fang Yumeng finished speaking, Qu Anruo looked like she didn’t understand, took off the coat, and burrowed into Fang Yumeng’s still warm bed.

Seeing Qu Anruo lying in her quilt without even changing her clothes, dozing off, Fang Yumeng said, “Get out!” Qu Anruo held the quilt tightly: “So sleepy…” As she spoke, her voice became weaker and weaker until she fell asleep.

Seeing that Qu Anruo was genuinely sleepy, Fang Yumeng pulled the quilt up for her, then looked at the gauze on her neck and finally couldn’t help but pull it down to look. Her neck was covered in red marks, and there were bite marks on her posterior neck.

Fang Yumeng’s jaw dropped in shock. Was Gu Jingyun’s bite that fierce? She quietly re-bandaged Qu Anruo’s neck. Tomorrow, she would have to hire a doctor to check on Qu Anruo. No wonder Qu Anruo didn’t go back home. If Qu Hanwen saw this… Fang Yumeng chuckled twice.

In the morning, Qu Anruo woke up feeling completely refreshed. “You’re awake?” Fang Yumeng said faintly from the side. Suddenly seeing Fang Yumeng, Qu Anruo was so startled her hair almost stood on end: “You scared me to death!”

“You’re awake, I called a doctor to come and see you.” As soon as Fang Yumeng finished speaking, the doctor arrived. The doctor’s expression was subtle when she came in and saw the two of them. “She’s my girlfriend!” Fang Yumeng quickly explained when she noticed the doctor’s expression toward the two of them.

“I see.” The doctor removed the gauze from Qu Anruo’s neck and was silent for a moment. As expected of young people, too intense.

Fang Yumeng looked at the doctor’s constantly changing expression and couldn’t quite figure out the situation. She asked worriedly, “How is it?”

“It’s not serious, it will heal in a few days. Your friend is probably about to differentiate, so the self-healing ability of the posterior neck is quite good.” Fang Yumeng breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Qu Anruo was fine.

Qu Anruo thought of Gu Jingyun’s illness and unconsciously touched her neck: “Can I have my scent gland removed after I differentiate?” This was the first time the doctor had heard someone ask this. Upholding her medical ethics, she nodded. “Theoretically, it is possible, but no one has yet requested the removal of the scent gland. This kind of thing concerns a person’s life, so there are currently no examples of scent gland removal in the hospital.”

After understanding, Qu Anruo looked at the bedsheet in silence. She decided that after she differentiated into an Alpha, she would personally destroy her scent gland.

[Host!] Suddenly, Qu Anruo heard 666’s voice.

The doctor went to the living room to explain the precautions for wound recovery and gave some medicine to Fang Yumeng.

[666, where did you go?] Qu Anruo didn’t bother to put on slippers and walked barefoot into an empty room. A quiet place made her feel safer.

[I went to the Main God to understand the situation…] 666 paused after speaking. [How is it?]

[The Main God didn’t make it clear. The female lead, Gu Jingyun, is indeed sick.] In fact, the Main God didn’t tell it much, only sighed and told it to stay in this world until the mission was completed and then leave.

Hearing this, Qu Anruo was relieved.

“Ruoruo, come out and eat.” Fang Yumeng called Qu Anruo from outside. She placed the medicine where Qu Anruo had been sitting. Qu Anruo went over, finished her meal, and took the medicine.

Gu Jingyun woke up and couldn’t find Qu Anruo. She sat on the sofa, clutching her head. Qu Anruo must have left because she was afraid of her or because of her words. Sigh, staying far away from her is the best choice for Qu Anruo.

Upon realizing the words had come from her own mouth, Gu Jingyun shyly turned her head away, “An Ruo, stop…”

Qu Anruo’s cheeks were flushed, and her chest was heaving heavily.

She looked at Gu Jingyun, who was slightly out of breath. Her usually cool face was tinged with a blush. Her clothes were wrinkled and hanging loosely on her body, her hands were held above her head by Qu Anruo, and her hair was messy. She looked utterly taken advantage of.

Qu Anruo leaned down and began to kiss her way down Gu Jingyun’s slender, upturned neck. Gu Jingyun was anticipating a kiss on her lips and couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.

Qu Anruo’s warm, wet kiss stopped at Gu Jingyun’s chest: “Does Jiejie want me to kiss you?” Qu Anruo’s lips were damp, and the hot breath from her mouth sprayed onto Gu Jingyun’s sensitive skin as she spoke. “Stop messing around,” Gu Jingyun said, attempting to sit up.

Qu Anruo didn’t speak. As Gu Jingyun tried to rise, a soft patch of skin pressed against her lips. “Hmm…” A soft tongue squeezed into Gu Jingyun’s mouth. Her body trembled, instinctively wanting to respond to Qu Anruo.

Just as Gu Jingyun was about to be overcome with passion, Qu Anruo pulled away from her. She took out a tissue and wiped the ambiguous moisture from her mouth. Looking at Gu Jingyun still gasping on the sofa, Qu Anruo merely squatted in front of her and untied her hands. “Jiejie, I’m leaving.” With that, Qu Anruo left without hesitation.

Gu Jingyun turned her head and looked at the closed door, covering her eyes with her hand. Her eyes were red and slightly moist, and her lips were slightly swollen. Her clothes were probably a mess.

When Qu Anruo left, she specifically instructed the company staff not to approach her office. She only left after arranging everything.

Seeing Qu Anruo get into the car, Fang Yumeng asked, “Ruoruo, are you really going abroad?” Qu Anruo took off her mask and shook her head.

“Good heavens, your mouth…” Fang Yumeng was shocked when she saw Qu Anruo’s swollen lips.

“It’s not a big deal,” Qu Anruo replied. Fang Yumeng then looked at Qu Anruo mysteriously: “I met a strange woman when I came to the company today, but she was quite good-looking.” Fang Yumeng finished, acting like she was smitten.

Qu Anruo rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache. She couldn’t believe the two had met. She hoped they wouldn’t have any future interactions.

After returning home, Qu Anruo anxiously instructed Fang Yumeng: “I’m leaving tomorrow, don’t run around alone.” Fang Yumeng waved her hand at Qu Anruo: “I’m not a child.” Qu Anruo frowned after hearing this, but finally felt relieved after Fang Yumeng guaranteed she would be safe.

It wasn’t until sunset that Gu Jingyun got up from the sofa. As she first stood up, she almost fell because her legs were weak. She rubbed her slightly sore wrist and picked out a slightly larger jacket from Qu Anruo’s clothes to wear.

When she got home, she looked at the empty house and remembered that Qu Anruo wouldn’t be back. Her eyes dimmed as she tidied up her clothes, preparing to go to the film set tomorrow.

The next morning, Qu Anruo was dressed very differently than usual, wearing a hat and a mask. If she hadn’t spoken, it would have been hard to recognize her.

She arrived at the film set before Gu Jingyun and found Director Bai.

“Oh, President Qu, you’re dressed quite unusually today,” Director Bai said, stroking his chin as he looked at the heavily wrapped Qu Anruo.

Qu Anruo took off her mask: “Don’t tell Gu Jingyun that I’m at the film set.” Director Bai teased, “You young lovers are really something. Alright, I won’t tell Jingyun.” Qu Anruo thanked Director Bai and then found Yuan Yuan.

“From now on, I will be your assistant. Remember, absolutely do not tell Gu Jingyun it’s me.” Since Qu Anruo was so heavily covered, Yuan Yuan hadn’t recognized her at first, but she immediately nodded after hearing Qu Anruo’s voice.

Qu Anruo carried her luggage and approached Yuan Yuan. Looking at the strange person standing next to Yuan Yuan, Gu Jingyun asked, “Who is this?” Yuan Yuan hurriedly racked her brain for a name: “An An, she’s An An. Sister Wang arranged for her to help us.” Hearing Yuan Yuan’s explanation, Gu Jingyun nodded.

Qu Anruo stepped forward to help Gu Jingyun put her luggage in the room. Just as she was about to help her organize her clothes, Gu Jingyun snatched the suitcase: “I’ll do it.” With that, Gu Jingyun told Qu Anruo to leave.

Qu Anruo stood outside the tightly shut door and pouted.

Qu Anruo was dressed so heavily on a hot day. Yuan Yuan quietly asked, “President Qu, aren’t you hot?” Qu Anruo realized how hot she was after hearing Yuan Yuan’s question. She returned to the house she had re-booked and took off her outer layers.

[The female lead’s favorability is 90, just a final push away, Host, hang in there!] 666 suddenly popped out and said to Qu Anruo. Qu Anruo hadn’t expected that Gu Jingyun’s favorability could still increase after what she had just done. The tactic of ‘playing hard to get’ really worked.

[What are you planning, Host?] 666 didn’t understand why Qu Anruo had disguised herself and returned to Gu Jingyun’s side.
