The Female Lead is Looking at Me Differently (GL) - Chapter 38.2
Zhan Fu nodded generously, “But you know, this kind of thing is too strange for me, and I have no one to confide in. Looking around me, I found that the only person who had a similar experience to me and who could make me open up the most is you…”
Zhan Fu curved her lips, “Of course, if my question offends you, you can tell me directly.”
Wen Zhao scratched her cheek, “No, it doesn’t offend me, it’s just that, this question even I myself…”
Suddenly, Wen Zhao paused.
Why did she want to say “even I don’t know the answer to this question”?
Didn’t she know? If she didn’t know, why did she reject Fu Yu? If she didn’t know, why did she talk to Fu Yu? If she didn’t know, why did she make such an agreement with Fu Yu, to not interfere with each other after the antidote?
She…..
Wen Zhao paused there, her fingers slowly clenching.
However, this was not the time for her to think about her own thoughts, and moreover, Wen Zhao always felt that she shouldn’t, nor should she, fall in love with Fu Yu.
Therefore, she withdrew her thoughts and simply asked Zhan Fu, “Do you think you have developed some kind of feeling for Lu Bicai?”
Zhan Fu didn’t reject it directly. She slowly lowered her eyes, frowned slightly, with an indescribable confusion.
“I just feel a little… unable to extricate myself.”
She sighed softly, inserting a hand into her hair.
The beautiful girl’s face was clearly filled with sorrow, her brows slightly furrowed, “I… I find it difficult to completely detach myself. You know, this kind of relationship, how can it be forgotten so easily? Although she told me that after this night, we could treat each other as if nothing had happened, and in the future, we would each go our own way, and she would never mention this past, just forget it, but…”
Zhan Fu’s eyelashes fluttered.
“I can’t do it, how can I forget so easily? Those intimate contacts, the exchange of breaths, and… everything we did, is it really possible to forget so easily? And I, can I really treat it as if nothing had happened after experiencing such things with her?”
With each word Zhan Fu said, Wen Zhao felt her heart beat a little faster.
She closed her eyes and didn’t even dare to take a deep breath.
Because every word Zhan Fu said fell right on Wen Zhao’s heart, things that she had never thought about, and never dared to think about.
As Zhan Fu said, could those intimate nights and days really be cut off so easily? After verbally saying that there would be no more relationship, could her behavior and her heart really do so?
Wen Zhao didn’t know.
Zhan Fu said, “I don’t even know if I… have fallen in love with her.”
Wen Zhao raised her eyes to look at her, “Then what do you feel?”
Zhan Fu said, “I just don’t know, I… we haven’t even had a long-term relationship, just that one night.” She bit her lip, “And after that night, she disappeared from my life, so suddenly, that I didn’t even have a chance to ask. It’s too… cruel.”
For some reason, hearing Zhan Fu’s words at this moment, Wen Zhao inexplicably thought of her and Fu Yu.
She didn’t know how she and Fu Yu would get along afterward. Could they truly return to their original positions after such intimate contact? And could she maintain her composure after seeing Fu Yu’s indifferent expression again? Or would she become like Zhan Fu, feeling gains and losses?
Zhan Fu lightly bit her fingernail, “Do you think I should catch her?”
After analyzing her own psychology, Zhan Fu gradually calmed down and began to consider countermeasures.
Wen Zhao couldn’t help but cough.
To be honest, Wen Zhao never expected Zhan Fu’s thoughts to change so quickly. Just based on this, she might not be as good as Zhan Fu.
Zhan Fu was not afraid to face it, but she was afraid, so Zhan Fu chose to face it head-on, while she chose another path. Wen Zhao didn’t even want to think about the direction of the other path, but directly cut off that path.
It was simply because, compared to Zhan Fu, she had too many concerns, and there was a “retreat” that she could never give up no matter what, and that was going home.
Therefore, when it came to emotional choices, Wen Zhao would be more hesitant, but also more ruthless.
Zhan Fu raised her eyes and asked Wen Zhao, “What do you think? Would it be inappropriate for me to do this? She just helped me get rid of the poison, and as a result, I want to catch her back because of my own selfish desires…”
Wen Zhao came back to her senses, thought for a moment, and then asked Zhan Fu, “Then why do you want to catch her back? Do you want revenge, to get revenge?”
Zhan Fu immediately denied, “Of course not, she didn’t bully me, and to be precise, it was actually me who bullied… her. I just want to call her back and spend more time with her, so I can more clearly understand why I feel these strange emotions in my heart.”
Hearing Zhan Fu’s answer, Wen Zhao’s heart trembled.
It was nothing more than that Zhan Fu’s behavior and psychology were too open and honest… Even, she was very frank. This was something Wen Zhao could never do.
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but curl her lips, “If you don’t hurt her and don’t force her, then I think this ‘repaying kindness with vengeance’ is not impossible.”
Zhan Fu also couldn’t help but smile, “Of course not, this young lady just… wants to take a good look at her again.” Speaking of this, Zhan Fu’s cheeks turned slightly pink, but she quickly covered it up.
“It’s not fair to just take advantage of this young lady and leave. Besides, this young lady bullied her, so I have to make up for it, otherwise it would seem very impolite.”
Wen Zhao propped her chin and looked at Zhan Fu, her lips slightly curved, “Then what if you clarify your feelings?”
Zhan Fu raised her eyebrows slightly, “Once I’ve figured it out, it’s naturally time for this young lady to get married.”
Looking at her carefree smile, Wen Zhao couldn’t help but be lost for a moment, then she curled her lips, with a sense of loss and longing that even she herself didn’t realize or understand, “Then I’ll wish you congratulations in advance.”
*
On the way back, Wen Zhao’s mind kept replaying Zhan Fu’s words and some of her own thoughts.
When it came to being honest, Wen Zhao had to admit she was no match for Zhan Fu. Even with just a hint of strange emotions, Zhan Fu was willing to grasp it, study it, explore it, and then face it head-on.
But she wanted to hide it, as if by hiding it, she could pretend nothing had happened.
But…
Could everything really be treated as if nothing had happened?
Could the seven nights of entanglement really be forgotten so easily?
And today, it was the 7th day… After today, she and Fu Yu would have to draw a line between and return to their respective positions. No matter what Fu Yu did in the future, it would have nothing to do with her.
For some reason, at this thought, Wen Zhao suddenly felt a sense of indescribable dread.
[I’m so scared, system.]
This was the first time Wen Zhao had asked the system for help.
To be honest, the system was also very embarrassed. After all, at the beginning, its mission and Wen Zhao’s goal were the same, so they would have a very pleasant cooperative relationship. But later, because of the Caihua Powder incident, everything went awry…
The system didn’t know what attitude it should take, should it follow, encourage, or be tough and oppose?
But it was just an AI, and in the end, all it could present to Wen Zhao was mechanical data after calculation.
[Host, the system cannot make a decision for you, but can only help you calculate the two possible paths in the future for your reference. If you choose to follow the original plot and return everything to its place, then when you finally leave the plot, it will also be time for you to go home. If you choose to intervene in the plot, change the plot, and fall in love with the female lead, then in the end, regardless of whether the plot outcome changes or not, you can only stay here and cannot go home.]
[These two paths… please choose for yourself.]
Wen Zhao’s originally agitated heart gradually sank. The temperature of her originally scorching fingertips also dropped. She no longer hesitated or hesitated, and she regained her composure.
[I understand…]
Wen Zhao pinched her hand hard and took a deep breath.
••••
When they returned, except for Fu Yu, the emotions of the other two didn’t seem very good.
Fu Yu glanced at You Zixia, then lowered her head and softly asked Wen Zhao, “What’s wrong?”
Startled by her voice, Wen Zhao came back to her senses, but at this moment, she was no longer so daring to face Fu Yu, and moreover, she had to prepare for her future habits, didn’t she?
Therefore, Wen Zhao simply avoided Fu Yu’s gaze and shook her head, “I’m fine. How about Senior brother?”
You Zixia recalled what Zhan Yongyuan had told him. The other party told You Zixia some things about Zhan Fu, of course, not in too much detail, but You Zixia, who had obtained half of the information from Fu Yu and Wen Zhao, naturally deduced the main truth of the matter.
Zhan Yongyuan still asked You Zixia if he was willing to marry Zhan Fu.
But this time, You Zixia refused.
Because he already knew that Zhan Fu didn’t like him, so no matter what the situation was, she wouldn’t choose him. Therefore, You Zixia would not agree to such a thing.
But this was a thing of the past, so You Zixia decided to hide it in his heart and not mention it again. Therefore, when faced with Wen Zhao’s question, he adjusted his emotions and shook his head.
“No, it’s nothing serious.”
Yes, it was over, and he didn’t have to keep looking back. He should look forward.
The three of them had no mood to chat, they just ate a few bites and then went back to their rooms.
Returning to her room, Wen Zhao looked at the familiar interior scene, took a deep breath, and then turned to look at Fu Yu who was coming in, and softly asked, “I have a question.”
Fu Yu raised her eyes and looked at the person standing there.
Wen Zhao’s eyes were cold, looking at Fu Yu.
“From today onwards, won’t we return to our previous relationship, and we will no longer interfere with each other?”
