Transmigrated Into The Arms Of The Heroine Of A Sadistic Novel - Chapter 33

A sudden warmth enveloped her ear tip, startling Lin Yanyu, who immediately pulled back. She subconsciously raised a hand to touch her cat ear, her fingers instantly meeting dampness.

Having been a cat for so long, Lin Yanyu naturally knew that some people liked to nibble on cat ears when petting, but those people were usually bold and outgoing. She hadn’t expected the young lady to have such a preference.

She looked up at Tan Changxin. Their eyes met, and she saw the young lady was holding the Unwilling Fan open in front of her, but she could see the tips of the young lady’s ears were red.

Lin Yanyu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She casually wiped her ear, then naturally reached her hand under the fan, pinching Tan Changxin’s chin. She deliberately asked in a fierce tone, “What are you doing? Dare to bite but not admit it?”

“I dare to admit it…” Tan Changxin whispered, “Sorry, I didn’t expect to bite your ear…”

Lin Yanyu clicked her tongue, lowered her hand to rest on Tan Changxin’s wrist, and with a little force, moved the Unwilling Fan down, revealing the young lady’s flushed face.

“There’s no one here, why are you hiding?” she said grumpily. “If you bit, you bit. Whether it was intentional or accidental, you don’t need to apologize. Our relationship doesn’t require that!”

“I know…” Tan Changxin responded in an extremely soft voice, lowered her gaze, and remained silent.

In her heart, she was wondering what kind of “relationship” the cat was referring to.

Lin Yanyu could tell at a glance that the young lady was afraid she was angry, but since she had figured out the young lady’s thoughts, she would naturally be more accommodating. She reached out, took the Unwilling Fan, tossed it into the air to transform it into its full size (big enough for a person to stand on), then went around behind Tan Changxin and picked her up horizontally.

Tan Changxin was in the midst of self-reproach when she was suddenly lifted from the ground, surprising her into an “Ah!” She looked at Lin Yanyu in astonishment.

“Let’s go explore more. Staying here is boring.” Lin Yanyu carried her and jumped onto the fan surface, then set her down beside her. “Where else do you want to go? We’re going to have fun today!”

They spent the entire day carefree in Zhuzhou City this way. Lin Yanyu had no idea how Tan Changxin felt, only that the young lady was exceptionally well behaved throughout the journey, perhaps still feeling guilty for accidentally biting her ear.

As dusk approached, a vendor selling tanghulu (sugar coated hawthorns) on the street was, for once, selling assorted fruit skewers. Lin Yanyu intended to buy one for Tan Changxin to try, but when she felt in her purse, what she pulled out was not small gold nuggets but various thumb sized pieces of jewelry.

Lin Yanyu: …

She had been in the human world for so many days, either not needing to spend money or having Tan Changxin spend it for her, and she had forgotten to exchange for the common human world currency.

The vendor was also dumbfounded, but Tan Changxin quickly handed him copper coins, took two fruit skewers, and pulled Lin Yanyu away.

“Do not flaunt your wealth,” Tan Changxin sternly warned once they reached a deserted spot. “If you want to buy anything, just tell me. Don’t show off gold and silver jewelry to people!”

“I know, I know.” Lin Yanyu nodded repeatedly. “Then should I exchange some silver with you? What do you need? I have luminous pearls, agate, jadeite…”

“I don’t lack anything.” Tan Changxin was torn between laughter and tears, handing both skewers to her. “Eat quickly.”

“But I wanted to buy this for you to eat,” Lin Yanyu explained, taking one skewer back to her. “That’s why I wanted to use my own money.”

Tan Changxin paused, but just smiled and took the fruit skewer, biting into a sugar-coated kumquat.

“Then give me two Spirit Binding Ropes,” she said after finishing the fruit. “How much silver do you want?”

Spirit Binding Ropes were very practical magical tools. Lin Yanyu happily pulled out two and handed them over, carefully storing the copper coins and broken silver.

They walked along Yingxiang Street for a while longer, aimlessly strolling.

When they reached the entrance of the long street where the Tan family resided, Lin Yanyu swallowed the last bite of a crabapple and asked, “It seems like you still have something on your mind.”

She wasn’t very interested in shopping and had been constantly paying attention to Tan Changxin’s every move.

The young lady, like her, was used to being independent and rarely voiced her troubles to those around her. However, with careful observation, she could still discern some emotions.

“Actually, I don’t want to go back with Yang Hengyu,” Tan Changxin finally said softly after a long pause. “But as Senior Sister Zhuang said, Father definitely hopes to ‘treat everyone equally.’ Yang Hengyu has been by his side since childhood. Now that I have finished my studies, and as my sister, she has also subdued a demonic attendant, she naturally cannot be inferior.”

“Then let’s go find Feng Xianchen and the others now?” Lin Yanyu suggested. “We’re borrowing the Feng family’s flying sword anyway. We won’t tell anyone, just the four of us will sneak out of the city. If your father asks later, just say Feng Xianchen was in a hurry to return and gave us a lift.”

“If we really do that, Feng Xianchen will get scolded…” Although Tan Changxin said this, her body was honest and she led Lin Yanyu to the Feng family.

Just as they were about to reach the Feng family’s gate, she suddenly remembered something, stopped, and asked Lin Yanyu, “Why are you willing to go to the Feng family again?”

“I don’t want to see you suffer,” Lin Yanyu blurted out.

She had only one reason for not wanting to go to the Feng family: she was afraid that Feng Xianchen’s uncle would figure out her identity as a time traveler. However, compared to her identity being exposed, she would rather not see the young lady and Yang Hengyu glaring at each other on the flying sword.

Tan Changxin was stunned, then turned her face away and opened the Unwilling Fan. While covering her blush, she whispered, “Then, let’s go.”

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Yanyu and Tan Changxin were on the Feng family’s flying sword.

Feng Xianchen opened a fox fur cloak, draped it over Zhuang Jingwei who was controlling the sword at the very front, and then walked to the back to ask Tan Changxin, “Sister Changxin, what suddenly made you change your mind?”

To prevent further complications, after hearing Tan Changxin’s intentions, Feng and Zhuang immediately urged her to carry the cat and board the sword. Only after flying out of Zhuzhou City did they ask for details.

Tan Changxin lowered her head, stroking the black cat curled up in her arms, and smiled, “It was Yanyu who persuaded me to leave. If it were just me, I naturally wouldn’t have been able to make such a decision.”

Lin Yanyu was currently having her chin scratched. Hearing this, she gave a “meow” and stretched lazily towards Feng Xianchen, as if taking credit.

“Tsk, Senior Sister Zhuang and I advise you every year, either don’t go home, or if you do, come back early. You insist on accommodating the Tan Family Head, and no one can persuade you. I can’t believe we were both defeated by Sister Lin, who just came out of nowhere!” Feng Xianchen curled her lips, instinctively reaching out to pet the cat, but before her fingertips could touch the fur, she was met with a hiss from Lin Yanyu and almost got scratched. She shrank back to Zhuang Jingwei’s side, hugging her arm to calm down.

“Lin Yanyu is Changxin’s demonic attendant. How important she is to her, I don’t need to elaborate, do I?” Zhuang Jingwei gave her a look, then turned to Lin Yanyu and said, “Changxin has been accustomed to passively accepting things since childhood, and always hides her worries. Since you are her demonic attendant, you will probably need to spend a lot of effort to take care of her. Just like today, if you find anything she needs our help with, you can just bring her to us, or come to us first to discuss it. Don’t let her just settle for things!”

Lin Yanyu knew that Zhuang Jingwei was a woman of few words. If she delivered a long lecture to warn someone, it must be because she genuinely cared for the other party. Hearing this, she quickly flicked her tail: “I understand, I understand. An inexperienced, thin-skinned young lady, always needs extra care!”

“I’m only one year younger than you, not that young,” Tan Changxin rubbed the cat’s ear and scolded playfully, then added, “And I’m not often ‘thin-skinned’…”

To prove that she was not “thin-skinned,” Tan Changxin stroked the cat’s head for a moment, then moved her hand to the base of the cat’s tail, gently lifting it, and quietly said, “Actually, I am a ‘rascal’ too.”

Lin Yanyu: ???

Wait, we are clarifying things, but why the sudden move?!
