The Female Lead is Looking at Me Differently (GL) - Chapter 30

Wen Zhao was in a state of semi-consciousness; her mind was hazy, and the fire burning in her body from her heart to her limbs, from her body to her mind, made it impossible for her to truly wake up. She was like a drunk person, acting entirely on instinct.

Now she felt hot, so she followed her instincts and searched for something cold to cool down.

And now in this bed, the only thing that could make her feel cool and comfortable was the slightly cool person pressing down on her.

Even the strands of hair that the other person had scattered on Wen Zhao’s cheek gave her a feeling of comfort that welled up from the bottom of her heart.

Before the other person could act, Wen Zhao couldn’t help but reach out and wrap her arms around her neck.

The relatively wide sleeves slid down with her movements, exposing her smooth forearm to the air.

The cooler temperature of late autumn quickly caused Wen Zhao’s skin to tighten, but she seemed unaware of the coolness, simply wrapping herself around the person pressing down on her, her arms crossed behind the other person’s neck, and then gently pressing against her, wanting to get closer to each other.

Following Wen Zhao’s thoughts, the other person lowered their body and pressed closer to her.

Wen Zhao raised her head slightly, like a chick, pressed her lips against the other person’s neck, lightly sniffing and licking, as if craving something.

A moment later, a cool hand pinched her chin, slightly lifting Wen Zhao’s chin, then soft lips fell down.

Wen Zhao whimpered, then eagerly met them. She was like a parched person who had encountered a sweet spring, eagerly and greedily seeking.

Outside, a cool breeze picked up, gradually growing stronger, rustling the leaves with a hissing sound.

The breeze blew through the leaves, like gently parting a curtain, revealing the trunk hidden behind the leaves.

The wind brushed against the branches, although strong, it still controlled its strength and did not cause any damage to the trees. Because this was not the first time, so there would no longer be that kind of blank brain loss of control.

As the wind grew stronger, the sound of leaves colliding with each other gradually grew louder, and soon, some leaves could no longer hold on to the trunk and were blown away by the wind to a distance, separating from the trunk.

Then the weather turned cloudy, and dark clouds covered the moon, wiping out the only light in the darkness.

Then, it began to rain.

At first, it was just a drizzle, falling through the leaves and onto the trees.

Then, the rain gradually increased, falling in a drizzle, the leaves were shaken by the rain, and some raindrops slid down the smooth surface of the leaves, and finally, unable to bear the weight, fell from the tip and landed on the soil.

Soon, the ground was wet.

Amidst the patter of rain, some subtle sounds came from the window of this floor, and soon, they were dispersed by the wind.

As the rain intensified, there was gradually a faint rumble of thunder, mixed in with the sudden downpour. Then, a bolt of lightning split the sky, bright and dazzling.

The light from the lightning briefly illuminated the scene inside the room, revealing the slightly moving shape of the quilt reflected on the ground.

After an unknown amount of time, the movement slowly stopped, and the urgent sound gradually calmed down.

••••

The next day, as expected, Wen Zhao overslept and successfully stayed in bed.

When she woke up, not only was it bright, but it was also a sunny day.

Wen Zhao wanted to raise her arm to rub her eyes, but as soon as she moved, she felt a soreness in her arm, as if she had lifted a lot of dumbbells last night.

Then, the memory of last night came back, and Wen Zhao slowly remembered what had happened last night.

Her face and ears turned crimson, and then Wen Zhao couldn’t help but turn around to face the wall, pulled up the covers to cover herself tightly, and curled up into a ball.

Ahhhhh!

Besides screaming, Wen Zhao had no other emotions in her heart at the moment.

No wonder! She said she forgot something last night, she forgot about the Caihua Powder!

Clearly, the system had just told her that the Caihua Powder didn’t just attack once, but had a seven-day course of treatment (?), so in other words, apart from the previous two days, she would have five more days of that… what.

However, she actually forgot such an important thing last night and just fell asleep like that on the bed she shared with Fu Yu!

Although she guessed that it might be because she was so scared by Fu Yu’s appearance during the day that she directly forgot all sorts of things, but… how could she be so careless, and how could her psychological quality be so bad.

Wen Zhao couldn’t help but cry.

So, it’s not hard to imagine what Wen Zhao would do to Fu Yu after being awakened by the drug’s effects last night.

Wen Zhao: “……”

Just let her die.

This was no longer something that could be described in a few words. It would take an 80,000-word paper to successfully understand Wen Zhao’s state of mind and all her psychological activities at this moment.

Feeling the discomfort in her body and the soreness in her thighs, Wen Zhao bit her finger, tears streaming down her face.

Ah this, what kind of thing is this.

What on earth happened in this world? If the female lead had the same female lead value as her, she would probably have lost all of it and become negative by now.

Wen Zhao thought, wrapped in the covers in the dark.

Such a dark environment, and the touch of the warm quilt, evoked Wen Zhao’s memories of last night, those memories that she wanted to suppress but couldn’t.

They replayed vividly in her mind, without the slightest difference.

It’s simply killing me.

••••

Because of this embarrassing incident, although Wen Zhao had washed and dressed, she hesitated to go downstairs for dinner. After all, she felt a little guilty, and no matter if she met Fu Yu or You Zixia, she would feel a sense of trepidation.

So, after comparing the two, Wen Zhao felt that it was pretty good to just stay like this.

However, in her spare time, she still thought about the main thing, which was how to capture Lu Bicai.

Actually, they should only have one chance, which was the night they lured Lu Bicai, but… because of various reasons, the plan failed.

Now Lu Bicai should be on guard, and it would be even more difficult to lure him out again.

Thinking of this, Wen Zhao couldn’t help but sigh with her chin propped up.

She was genuinely worried about the female lead’s situation.

Although, between them… well, although the female lead had also targeted Wen Zhao, in fact, Wen Zhao seemed to understand.

And even if you set aside these “saintly” psychological factors, the sooner you catch Lu Bicai and the sooner you finish the plot, the better it would be for her.

So, this is serious business.

But as she had thought before, it was serious business, but it was also difficult.

Wen Zhao thought about the original plot. In the original plot, because Xie Ting didn’t make this request but something else, when Fu Yu and her team were completing the mission, although the female supporting character caused some trouble, they still managed to complete it.

And Xie Ting also fulfilled her promise very well, and told them everything she knew about the mastermind behind the scenes.

Actually, when she saw this part at the beginning, Wen Zhao was still puzzled. That is, although Xie Ting seemed reluctant to say it, she could have chosen not to say it, or made a very difficult request to embarrass Fu Yu, in order to achieve the purpose of dissuading her, but although she made a difficult request, it was not a task that was completely impossible to complete.

And when Fu Yu asked her to keep her promise, Xie Ting agreed very readily. This was a contrast that made Wen Zhao feel, but… because she didn’t see the end, so Wen Zhao didn’t know if there was any hidden meaning.

But no matter what, now because of the butterfly effect, they have been stuck at this step before success, which made Wen Zhao a little anxious and a little guilty.

——Could it be because of her that this happened?

This was the real knot in her heart.

••••

Although Wen Zhao always wanted to avoid Fu Yu, there were times when she couldn’t avoid it, such as… eating lunch together.

Although she and Fu Yu both knew something about certain things, that was only between the two of them. She didn’t want others to know, especially You Zixia.

So no matter how frantic and embarrassed Wen Zhao felt inside, at least on the surface, she appeared calm.

And before that, Wen Zhao, worried about her female supporting character value, had specially threatened (begged) the system, hoping that it would not arbitrarily deduct Wen Zhao’s female supporting character value to a failing grade because of uncontrollable and completely passive events, causing her to do this and that again.

Wen Zhao didn’t want to face Fu Yu’s expression, gaze, and killing intent again.

Perhaps because they had been getting along for a long time and had some affection, the system was unusually kind for once and nodded in agreement. So after last night, Wen Zhao’s female supporting character value barely maintained at 62, and didn’t drop any further.

Although this number was also dangerous, but… not failing was the best!

After going downstairs, sure enough, the three of them were eating together again. But now Wen Zhao was very satisfied, three people, better than two.

When she saw Fu Yu, Wen Zhao glanced at her quietly, but didn’t see any extra or uncomfortable emotions on the other’s face.

Fu Yu sat there, with a straight back and a slender waist, looking especially beautiful in those full of vigor clothes, making people feast their eyes.

Noticing that Wen Zhao had come down, she raised her eyes and looked over with black eyes, her emotions calm as a lake.

However, Wen Zhao couldn’t be as calm as Fu Yu, as if nothing had happened.

The moment her eyes met hers, she felt as if she had been burned, and quickly lowered her eyes, avoiding Fu Yu’s gaze.

Until she sat down, Wen Zhao didn’t raise her head to look in Fu Yu’s direction.

Avoiding is shameful, but it’s unexpectedly useful!

An awkward atmosphere hung between the two women. After all, something had truly happened between them, and only they knew about it. So as soon as one of them showed any emotion, the atmosphere between the two would change.

At the table, only You Zixia was like a simpleton, oblivious to everything. He was still busy ordering food, acting like an older brother. He had no idea that his nominal fiancée and his little junior sister had already had a s*x.

During the meal, You Zixia also discussed Lu Bicai with Fu Yu. He felt very guilty and self-blame for what had happened before. He always felt that it was because of him, being too indecisive and unable to make decisions, that led to… what happened, and that he also lost the chance to capture Lu Bicai.

Wen Zhao didn’t blame You Zixia. Although she had been drugged because of this incident, well…

She could still control her emotions. After all, this matter really had nothing to do with You Zixia! If anyone was to blame, it could only be Lu Bicai, not anyone else.

But speaking of Lu Bicai… ah, it was really difficult.

Wen Zhao was also a little worried.

Only Fu Yu lowered her eyes, her expression indifferent, not flustered at all.

“It doesn’t matter, there will be opportunities.”

Hearing her say this, Wen Zhao was actually aroused by curiosity. At this moment, she also forgot her previous awkwardness and looked at Fu Yu, unable to help but ask, “Do you have any way?”

Fu Yu looked up and looked directly at Wen Zhao, her black eyes seemingly devoid of any emotion.

Wen Zhao pursed her lips slightly and felt a little flustered under her gaze.

“Wh-what?” Although she couldn’t be truly powerful, at least she could put on a brave face, even if she was bluffing, but the fact was… Wen Zhao couldn’t even maintain a brave face now.

So she hurriedly looked away, like a white rabbit that had puffed up slightly and then quickly hid in the grass.

Seeing her like this, Fu Yu’s eyes darkened, her emotions intensified, and she stared fixedly at Wen Zhao. After a while, she said, “Because he is interested in certain things, so he will definitely come to witness the aftermath.”

You Zixia couldn’t help but ask in confusion, “What is it?”

But Wen Zhao immediately understood what Fu Yu meant.

The five days she was talking about… were the remaining effective days of the Caihua Powder!

The next moment, Wen Zhao’s face turned red, her fingers twirling around the hem of her clothes, and her heart pounding.

Wen Zhao didn’t know why Fu Yu suddenly brought this up, and why she was so certain that Lu Bicai would also come over. Could it be that… he was some kind of pervert, coming back to check on things just because the effects of the Caihua Powder were about to wear off?

That was obviously impossible.

But Fu Yu wasn’t someone who would just make things up, so there must be something she had noticed. That’s why Fu Yu had made this inference.

Wen Zhao bit her lip slightly, calming her emotions.

After all, no matter what, having a glimmer of hope was better than being completely clueless.

And now, all they needed to do was wait five days. After five days, it would also be the day when the effects of the drug wore off completely, and they could see what Lu Bicai would do then.

Wen Zhao thought this to herself, and slowly, she felt as if she had a goal and a direction to work towards.

However, before that, she seemed to have encountered a difficulty and obstacle that she needed to overcome. That is…

How was she going to spend the next five days.

At night, Wen Zhao stood by the bed, looking at the bed, and choked silently.
