The Female Lead is Looking at Me Differently (GL) - Chapter 38.1

Her cheeks were flushed, and she was completely at a loss, even feeling at this moment that her excessive staring and the breath she exhaled were a disrespect to Fu Yu.

Maintaining the position she had been rolling around in on the bed, Wen Zhao slowly retreated to the wall.

Fu Yu watched Wen Zhao’s movements, then moved slightly and pressed forward. She lowered her head and looked down at Wen Zhao, taking in the other person’s expression, her fingertips twitching slightly.

She leaned forward gently, “What’s wrong?”

Because of her movement, Fu Yu’s clothes fell even lower, and with the dim but clear light, the shadows inside could be seen clearly. Wen Zhao felt like this was a scene of impropriety.

She quickly turned her head away, trying to pretend nothing had happened, but she didn’t know that this action just happened to expose her reddened ears to Fu Yu.

Looking at the ear tips that were as red as bl00d, Fu Yu’s throat moved slightly, and then she lowered her head and gently held her earlobe.

Surrounded by the warm and moist breath, Wen Zhao’s whole body trembled violently, and she let out a soft cry. Subconsciously, she reached out to push Fu Yu away, but was held back by the other party, her hand was taken away, and then Fu Yu pressed down.

Feeling the slightly elevated temperature of the other person due to bathing, Wen Zhao couldn’t help but breathe quickly.

Fu Yu’s eyelashes fluttered, her gaze swept downward, she stuck out her tongue and touched Wen Zhao’s earlobe, feeling the other person’s body tremble slightly because of her movements, the ink in her eyes became darker and darker.

She leaned forward again, her voice soft, like an intimate murmur.

“Do you like it?” she asked softly.

Although her voice was soft, but because they were so close at the moment, Fu Yu’s voice, like a feather, probed into Wen Zhao’s ears, making her itchy.

Wen Zhao’s body was trembling slightly, and she couldn’t even continue to maintain her voice.

However, not getting the answer she wanted, Fu Yu didn’t seem to want to give up.

Her hands also began to move. She asked again, “Do you like it?”

Wen Zhao finally dared not answer, her voice trembling, tears welling up in her eyes, “…I, I like it.”

Fu Yu lowered her eyes, as if letting out a very light sigh of satisfaction, “Good girl.”

The clothes of the two were in disarray.

Wen Zhao felt like she was dreaming. In her dream, she could fly and come to a white sky, and she could even reach out and touch the clouds, playing freely.

The touch of the clouds was soft and gentle, like cotton candy, which could be easily grasped by the palm, and then the strange touch seemed to flow out from between the fingers, bringing a heart-itching touch.

And now, Fu Yu was touching that cloud.

Because it was the sixth day, the effects of the Caihua Powder were mostly confined to the body. Although Wen Zhao was uncomfortable, she could still have moments of clarity.

She could clearly feel everything between herself and Fu Yu at this moment, and she could clearly know all the reactions she had to Fu Yu’s actions.

It made her ashamed, but she couldn’t refuse.

The wind hit the window, one sound after another.

••••

Wen Zhao was awakened by a gentle touch. It felt like someone was stroking her hair, the movements were delicate and gentle, over and over again.

With a lingering fondness for this tenderness, Wen Zhao slowly opened her eyes.

Then she found that she was held in Fu Yu’s arms, and the person who had just gently stroked her hair was also Fu Yu.

Wen Zhao moved slightly to indicate that she was awake; then Fu Yu paused for a moment, and then kissed Wen Zhao on the forehead.

Wen Zhao bit her lip, feeling a little embarrassed and shy.

To get rid of this shyness, she quickly changed the subject, “That, that… I wonder how Lu Bicai is doing.”

However, Fu Yu’s movements stopped. Her fingers slowly came to Wen Zhao’s ear, her fingertips gently rubbing the other’s earlobe.

Although it was a gentle and casual movement, Wen Zhao didn’t know why, but she sensed something wrong.

She clenched her fists slightly, grabbed the quilt, and then looked up at Fu Yu, “What’s wrong?”

Fu Yu’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, “No, nothing.”

Liar. She could clearly sense that Fu Yu’s emotions had changed at this moment, especially… after she mentioned Lu Bicai. Could something have happened to Lu Bicai?

Thinking of this, Wen Zhao asked again.

However, the next moment, Wen Zhao felt the movement on her ear become heavier. Then, she was caught by the chin and forced to lift her head.

Before Wen Zhao could react, Fu Yu’s breath enveloped her.

“I don’t like it very much,” Her eyelashes were thick, blocking the sight in her eyes, her lips moved slightly, “…you saying other people’s names here.”

••••

It was almost noon when they came downstairs.

When she was washing up and getting dressed, Wen Zhao even found a red mark behind her ear. She reached out to wipe it, but such a mark was not like makeup, how could it be wiped away?

In the end, Wen Zhao could only comfort herself… forget it, no one else could see it here.

Because she was worried about Zhan Fu, You Zixia wanted to visit the City Lord’s Residence again today. Wen Zhao thought for a while, and then asked Fu Yu, “Have they returned?”

Fu Yu checked, “They have already returned.”

Wen Zhao asked again, “Then… what should we do with Lu Bicai? Should we catch her?”

After all, Wen Zhao hadn’t forgotten that the reason why the three of them had come here and had a chance encounter with Zhan Fu was all because of Lu Bicai.

Their mission was to capture Lu Bicai and bring her back, so that the Divine Doctor Xie Ting would be willing to reveal information. But now, it seemed like they had used Lu Bicai and were about to turn against her. It made Lu Bicai seem like a mere tool.

Fu Yu’s expression remained unchanged, after all, her goal had never changed. In Fu Yu’s heart, revenge naturally came first.

Therefore, she nodded slightly, “Yes.”

“Then, when are we going to act?”

Fu Yu stroked her hair, “I’ll handle it.”

••••

They arrived at the City Lord’s Residence very smoothly. It seemed that Zhan Yongyuan had no intention of refusing them, but when they were about to visit Zhan Fu, Zhan Yongyuan kept You Zixia behind.

Then he said to Wen Zhao and Fu Yu, “You two go ahead first, I still have some things to discuss with Young Master You.”

You Zixia’s eyes also showed obvious confusion, but he did not refuse, he just said to the two of them, “Then you two go first.”

So Wen Zhao didn’t hesitate too much, and went to visit Zhan Fu with Fu Yu.

When they arrived, Zhan Fu was sitting in bed, reading a book. Her complexion and breath seemed to be no different from before, and she seemed to have recovered completely.

To say the only difference… it could only be a “feeling”. It always felt like Zhan Fu had a different aura than before, but if you tried to explain it, you couldn’t.

Seeing the two of them coming, Zhan Fu didn’t show any surprise, after all… she already knew more about the situation from Lu Bicai, so she also knew that it was Wen Zhao and Fu Yu who helped her find a way, and it was them who helped Zhan Fu find the “antidote”, otherwise, Zhan Fu would have died by now and would not be lying here so well.

It was natural for them to visit her now.

Zhan Fu put down the book in her hand, closed the book, and then tucked it away without a trace. Then she dismissed all the servants, and only the three of them were left in the room.

Fu Yu was obviously not the kind of person who would take the initiative to make small talk, and moreover, Wen Zhao also knew that if it weren’t for her… Fu Yu would probably not care about this matter.

Therefore, Wen Zhao took the initiative to step forward and asked with concern, “Are you feeling better?”

Although all three of them knew the inside story, but because they knew too much, it was inconvenient, so Wen Zhao could only ask so vaguely.

Zhan Fu smiled, “I’m fine now. Speaking of which, I have to thank you. I heard… from her, that it was thanks to you. I will remember this kindness.”

Wen Zhao quickly waved her hand, “No, no, no, we didn’t save you just for your gratitude.”

Zhan Fu smiled brightly, “I know, you treat me as a friend.” She raised her eyes, her eyes filled with light, “So Zhan Fu naturally treats you as a friend too. If you have any difficulties, feel free to come to me, I will help you. Not as a benefactor, but as a friend.”

Seeing the beautiful woman’s face showing familiar expressions and smiles again, Wen Zhao felt a weight lift off her heart.

So she also smiled and said, “Okay, then I’ll take this spot first.”

Zhan Fu smiled, and then she looked at Fu Yu, “I also heard that, this time it was thanks to Miss Fu Yu’s… wisdom.”

Fu Yu’s expression was as calm as ever. She didn’t seem to care whether she saved someone or ignored someone’s life because she didn’t care. So when facing Zhan Fu’s conversation, she was just as usual.

“It was just a coincidence.”

Zhan Fu shook her head slightly, “That’s also because of your excellence, that you could see through all this.”

Fu Yu lowered her eyes.

Zhan Fu said, “Miss Fu Yu, could you excuse us for a moment? I have something I want to talk to Wen Zhao about.”

Fu Yu glanced at Wen Zhao.

Wen Zhao could probably guess what Zhan Fu wanted to say.

After all, from certain perspectives, the two of them had similar experiences.
…Being poisoned, being given an antidote, and the person who gave it to them was also a woman.

Perhaps the only difference was that Wen Zhao had been given the antidote unconsciously, while Zhan Fu had clearly known the cause and effect before agreeing to it.

Of course, there was also another point, although it was a bit difficult to say, that Wen Zhao was the recipient, while Zhan Fu was the initiator.

But no matter what, they were both in the same situation when they first encountered this situation. So it was within Wen Zhao’s expectation that Zhan Fu would want to talk to her.

Therefore, she nodded slightly to Fu Yu.

After Fu Yu left, Wen Zhao sat beside Zhan Fu’s bed. She originally thought that Zhan Fu would take a long time to prepare, or start with another topic, but to Wen Zhao’s surprise, Zhan Fu asked directly, “Do you like Fu Yu?”

Wen Zhao: “……”

Ah, this?

Wen Zhao had thought that the question Zhan Fu wanted to discuss with her might be a little sharp, but she never thought… it would be so sharp!

She instinctively wanted to avoid Zhan Fu’s gaze.

There was no other reason, because this question was one that Wen Zhao herself could not face and could not answer. So when she encountered this question, her first reaction was not to face it, but to escape.

However, Zhan Fu sat up straight and reached out to hold Wen Zhao’s hand, “Of course, I don’t mean to offend you, I’m just a little…” She was thinking about how to phrase it, and after a moment, Zhan Fu said softly, “a little at a loss.”

Wen Zhao was slightly startled, and then tentatively asked, “Is it because of Lu Bicai?”
