The Female Lead is Looking at Me Differently (GL) - Chapter 12

Wen Zhao took a slow breath, feeling a chill in her chest. Although it was only early autumn, the air she breathed was so cold, just like Fu Yu’s gaze when she looked over.

Wen Zhao’s heart couldn’t help but tremble again, but as soon as it trembled twice, she thought of something and turned her head back in horror to look at the two sword qi that Fu Yu had sent out, and sure enough, they were going straight for the two formations.

Recalling what Fu Yu had just said, Wen Zhao couldn’t care less about her guilty and fearful mood at the moment, and she quickly ran over and grabbed Fu Yu’s arm, “Wait, wait a minute! Don’t be so reckless.”

Before this, Wen Zhao really didn’t expect that Fu Yu, who was so calm, rational, and self-possessed, would have such an impulsive moment. She originally thought that the three of them would sit down together (?) and slowly discuss plans and routes.

But now Wen Zhao didn’t have time to think about the reasons, she just held Fu Yu’s arm anxiously.

Fu Yu, whose arm was grabbed by Wen Zhao, paused, and the originally fierce and cold aura around her body paused slightly, as if stopping. But she still didn’t look over, nor did she seem to want to say anything, just her brows were slightly cold.

Although it was difficult to distinguish which of these two formations was easier to break from the outside, and it was even possible to mistakenly choose the more dangerous one due to external confusion, Wen Zhao, as someone who knew the plot, could tell.

She had already prepared to quietly tell Fu Yu and You Zixia the answer, but who knew, things would develop in this direction.

Wen Zhao felt that her mood was really complicated, sad and wronged, and there was also a feeling of… I was ready to risk being scolded by the system and being deducted female supporting character value to offer you the answer, but you guys gave up the exam…

She couldn’t help but pout, her voice small and with a hint of grievance, “Why attack both, can’t you wait for me?”

Hearing Wen Zhao’s pitiful tone, Fu Yu was clearly startled.

Her brows moved slightly, she lowered her eyes, her gaze swept over Wen Zhao’s urgent and sad expression, her lips moved slightly, and then she sighed inaudibly, as if warming up. Fu Yu asked her, “Which one do you want to destroy?”

The cold and murderous impatience had disappeared, as if it had been passed through by the spring breeze, smoothing out the hard ice. The current Fu Yu had returned to her usual appearance.

Hearing her question, Wen Zhao was startled at first, and then quickly said, “The one on the right, the right one!”

I don’t know if it’s too late.

The next moment, Fu Yu drew her sword and slashed it out, a sword qi broke through the air and chased after the one that was circling in front. Then the two sword qi collided, although it affected the situation on the left, fortunately, the right formation was not damaged too badly.

Wen Zhao looked up and saw that the right formation had not been completely activated, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

You Zixia turned his head and asked, “This…?”

Wen Zhao blinked, suddenly feeling guilty. If You Zixia insisted on asking her, then Wen Zhao didn’t know how to answer. Originally, her rash suggestion had already deducted a lot of her female supporting character value. Coupled with what had been deducted before, Wen Zhao was really worried that she would fail soon.

Therefore, when You Zixia showed doubt, Wen Zhao was immediately very nervous.

Fortunately, at this moment, Fu Yu stepped forward and seemed to unconsciously block Wen Zhao, she looked at the situation in front of her and said to You Zixia, “Let’s break the formation first.”

So You Zixia retracted his thoughts and nodded without asking further.

Wen Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and then thoughtfully said, “Senior Brother, be careful.” By the way, give her some more female supporting character value.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Fu Yu glanced over. The warm eyes just now had turned cold again, with ink-like color, making people’s hearts tremble.

Wen Zhao: … Sorry, I was wrong qwq.

Then Fu Yu and You Zixia stepped forward and deliberately protected Wen Zhao, probably because the original owner’s weak and white lotus image was deeply rooted in their hearts, so they didn’t even think of letting Wen Zhao participate in the battle.

They actually ignored her value! Her fighting power! And arbitrarily treated her as a weak doddler! To this, Wen Zhao expressed her emotions violently… thank you, please be sure to stay the same.

She couldn’t fight or battle yet.

However, Wen Zhao remembered that she didn’t need to worry too much about the left formation, in the original plot, it was just a rare prank from Xie Ting. It was probably to give the intruders a feeling of “I’m on high alert, I’m nervous and tense, and the result is that I’m greeted by a small splash of water”.

Yes, a little splash, that’s the ‘trap’ on the left. It’s completely opposite to the dangerous-looking formation.

Therefore, Wen Zhao was still very relaxed, except… she just hoped that the system wouldn’t deduct her female supporting character value qwq.

Wen Zhao felt a strong sense of crisis now. After dealing with this formation, she must brush up her favorability a lot. Of course, this was on the condition of hiding it from Fu Yu.

I don’t know if it was her illusion, but Wen Zhao always felt that as long as she had the idea of interacting with You Zixia, she would be locked onto by Fu Yu. But clearly, Fu Yu didn’t care about You Zixia that much at this time!

Could this be a preemptive strike against her rival?

Wen Zhao withdrew her thoughts and focused on the left formation. However, as she looked, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

…Why is the water on the left getting more and more? It’s quite a bit different from a small splash.

However, before Wen Zhao could continue to observe, the next moment, the big splash suddenly rushed towards her.

Wen Zhao: ?!

“A Zhao!”

In her panic, Wen Zhao seemed to hear You Zixia calling her name, and Fu Yu in front was also ready to cover her; however, the speed of the splash was faster than both of them, and before Wen Zhao could react, she was… well, she was drenched by the formation with a head full of cold water.

The amount of water was as much as two basins.

Splashing, Wen Zhao instantly turned into a drenched little white flower.

Just like in the original plot, the splash didn’t cause any real harm to the outsiders, it was more like a prank, except that unlike in the original plot, it might not be the splash itself that appeared, but the splash’s father. Otherwise, how could the amount of water be so abundant.

Wen Zhao was originally wearing a fairy-like, light white dress, and after being drenched with such a basin of water, the clothes were completely soaked, clinging tightly to her body, revealing the lines of her figure, and even looking a bit… not very, not very decent.

You Zixia’s footsteps stopped abruptly, and then he quickly turned around, avoiding looking.

Seeing Wen Zhao in this state, Fu Yu was startled, a trace of emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she raised her eyes, with a cold light in her eyes, subconsciously forced towards You Zixia’s side, seeing that You Zixia had already turned away, Fu Yu retracted her gaze, and the cold light in her eyes slightly subsided.

However, when her gaze fell on Wen Zhao, it was as if she had been scalded, and she quickly looked away, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, with a hint of unease.

In fact, Wen Zhao herself didn’t care too much about it, firstly because she wasn’t a real ancient person, and secondly… although this look added a bit of pure and seductive, vaguely alluring charm, but it didn’t reveal anything that shouldn’t be revealed, but instead covered it very well.

In addition, there were only three of them here, and the only male, You Zixia, had very timely retracted his steps and gaze, so Wen Zhao wasn’t very embarrassed.

However, just as she was about to look up and say something to Fu Yu, Wen Zhao’s vision blurred, and then a black outer robe fell on her head.

Wen Zhao: ?

She poked her head out from between the clothes and found that it was Fu Yu’s outer robe that was draped over her.

Wen Zhao blinked blankly, a drop of water slid down her eyelashes, Wen Zhao closed her eyes uncomfortably, and when she opened her eyes again, Fu Yu had already blocked in front of her.

Wen Zhao looked at Fu Yu who had taken off her coat and opened her lips slightly, “You…”

Fu Yu turned her head slightly, her jawline was thin and sharp, she didn’t look at Wen Zhao, but looked down at the ground and said softly, “Just wear it for now.”

Wen Zhao exclaimed, “Ah,” and looked down at her clothes, then looked up at Fu Yu, suddenly feeling a sense of being cared for.

She happily tapped the system in her heart. [System, did you see that! My decision to choose this path was right! Look, it’s working so quickly, the female lead is caring for me, I’m so happy.]

The system simply responded coldly: [Your female supporting character value is almost gone, I’m also very happy.]

Wen Zhao suddenly stiffened. She secretly checked her female supporting character value and, fortunately, it hadn’t continued to drop, still remaining at 71 points.

She secretly relaxed, then turned her attention to the matter at hand.

She shook open Fu Yu’s outer robe and put it on. The black clothes enveloped her, and Wen Zhao burrowed into her coat, tilting her head slightly, she could even smell the lingering scent of Fu Yu on the clothes. She smiled secretly, then walked over to Fu Yu’s side, “I’m done.”

However, as soon as she walked over, Fu Yu suddenly took a step forward, creating a distance between her and Wen Zhao.

Wen Zhao: “……”

Ah?! Why?!

Suddenly hurt.

She was about to ask Fu Yu regardless of her image, but when she looked up unintentionally, she caught a glimpse of Fu Yu’s red ear tips hidden in her hair. Wen Zhao was stunned, and didn’t ask in time. The next moment, Fu Yu had already walked over and said to You Zixia, “Okay.”

You Zixia turned around and understood immediately that Fu Yu had lent her clothes to Wen Zhao. So he said, “Thank you, Fu Yu.”

Fu Yu turned her head slightly, her profile revealing a sense of elegance. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly.

“It’s nothing.”

Wen Zhao was still lost in her thoughts and hadn’t come back to her senses. She looked at Fu Yu in front of her, and then suspected that she had seen wrong.

At this time, You Zixia came over and asked with concern, “Junior Sister, are you okay just now?”

Wen Zhao retracted her thoughts and nodded, “I’m fine, Senior Brother, I was just startled…” She saw You Zixia, and thought of her female supporting character value that was about to drop below 70, and suddenly felt even more heartache.

So Wen Zhao coughed lightly, slowly rubbed against You Zixia, and said softly, “Senior Brother, I was really scared just now, I was so scared…”

You Zixia didn’t see Wen Zhao’s “evil intentions.” At this moment, he was just dutifully maintaining the role of a senior brother, and said in a gentle and concerned voice, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, I couldn’t block the water in time, are you feeling okay now, is there anything wrong?”

Wen Zhao tentatively took another step forward, her hand reaching out from her sleeve, ready to grab You Zixia’s clothes, “Senior Brother, I…”

Before she could continue, she was stopped by someone.

Fu Yu grabbed her wrist, her grip a little heavy. She looked down at Wen Zhao, her eyes cold and bright.

“Where are you not feeling well?”

Although the words were concerned, there was a hint of danger in the tone.
