What to do if I've locked myself in a book! - Chapter 25

Flustered and embarrassed, the woman blushed and took a step back, her gaze subconsciously drifting towards his crotch. There, she could make out an outline, his member seemingly in a semi-erect state, somewhat responsive but not fully aroused. However, even in that state, the size seemed considerable. If it were fully erect, she wondered if it would be as huge and terrifying as Cheng Ye’s. If it were to enter her, would it…?

Good heavens, what was she thinking!

Her face flushed crimson, and a wave of heat surged downward. Her swollen, aching opening secreted fluids that stuck to her panties, making her feel damp and ashamed.

When she realized she had been staring at his crotch for quite some time, she wished she could dig a hole and disappear.

Not daring to look up, she abruptly pushed him away and ran towards the washroom, as if she had suddenly regained all her strength, a stark contrast to her state when she came downstairs.

Bai Yiyan said nothing. He walked back to the sofa, picked up the book he had thrown on the floor, straightened it, and placed it back on the bookshelf. Then, he casually grabbed another book, sat down on the sofa, and started flipping through it, but he couldn’t concentrate on the contents.

After locking herself in the washroom, Ling Qianqian turned on the faucet and splashed cold water on her face.

Her cheeks felt so hot that they could evaporate the water. After calming down a bit, she looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly realized that something was amiss.

[He wants to sleep with you.]

This prompt was different from the previous ones!

All the previous prompts had instructed her to take action, but this prompt didn’t provide any instructions on what she should do.

Ignoring the embarrassing content of the prompt, she suddenly focused her mind and began to think. Rather than the style of the prompt changing, could it be that this place couldn’t provide prompts that directed her actions? Was it related to the fact that Bai Yiyan wasn’t a character from her novel?

A whirlwind of thoughts swirled through her mind as she gripped the edge of the sink, looking at herself in the mirror.

Just then, a row of glowing, floating words appeared on the mirror: [Suggestion: Have sex with Bai Yiyan in the living room tonight, preferably on that long sofa, to facilitate the plot.]

What the hell?

She almost burst out laughing. The word ‘suggestion’ was the first time she had seen it in a prompt. Disregarding the embarrassing content, she couldn’t help but wonder if this meant that even if she didn’t follow the prompt, the person giving the prompts couldn’t do anything to her?

Almost simultaneously with her thoughts, another line of floating, glowing words appeared, trembling slightly, as if expressing their anger: [Our lives and deaths are intertwined. Please consider this carefully!]

This damned prompt could read minds? And it was throwing a tantrum?

“Then tell me, who exactly are you? Where am I? Why should I listen to you? Unless you make it clear, I won’t easily do as you say.”

She lowered her voice and confronted the air in the mirror, as if talking to herself.

The floating words in front of her also began to output a barrage of information. For the first time since entering the book, she was having a conversation with ‘Little Chili’.

[I’m Ling Qianqian, it’s you, you are me. We’re in different dimensions, but you have to trust me. Only I can take you back to where you belong.]

“Why?”

[Your reality and the reality in the book are undergoing an irreversible crossover. I can’t explain too much. Once they find out, I won’t even have a chance to give you prompts! Bai Yiyan is the best example; he’s not a character from your book, yet he’s here.]

“They? Who are ‘they’? Is he the Bai Yiyan from reality? Why is he here?”

[To correct you, where you are now is also reality. Bai Yiyan is and isn’t. I’ve told you everything I can. You have to trust me; I am you! Only if you successfully return can I gain freedom. Our fates are tied together.]

“How do I know you’re not lying to me?”

[It’s the rules; I can’t lie! Ah, it’s hot; it’s spilled on the keyboard…]

“…You’re typing??”

[Don’t forget about tonight’s business.]

“What if he doesn’t want to… cough, you know… what should I do? I can’t force someone.”

[I’ve already told you, I can’t lie. As long as you want it, it will definitely happen.]

She understood that this was referring to the truthfulness of “He wants to sleep with you.” A strong sense of shame surged into her heart, making her both embarrassed and annoyed. “Why do you always make me do such disreputable things?”

[Because this is a romance novel! If there’s no romance, who would want to watch!]

“What did you say? ‘Watch’? Who’s watching?”

[The person who commissioned the novel from you… Oh no, someone’s coming! I have to go!]

“Hey!”

The thrilling ‘conversation’ with the silent words came to an abrupt end, and Ling Qianqian’s heart pounded anxiously.

Only Ji Shi knew about the patron who commissioned the novel from her. How could she find Ji Shi now?

But regardless, there was no better option than to take things one step at a time and tentatively follow the prompts.

Go find Bai Yiyan.
