“Bang!” The bullet shot straight toward Su Mu, but weirdly, it didn’t hit her, as if an invisible shield were protecting her.
“Host, I’m here!” The system was also very anxious seeing Su Mu’s situation. However, Su Mu had once said that the system must not interfere unless it was a life-or-death moment; she wanted to rely on her own strength or achieve the greatest success so she could truly stand by the Female Lead’s side. Just now, seeing that shameless person trying to sneak attack the Host, the system couldn’t hold back and deployed the protective shield.
“Mhm, thanks, System.” Hearing the gunshot, Su Mu realized what had just happened. If it weren’t for the system, she definitely wouldn’t have escaped being wounded.
“System, do you have any way to get us out of here?” Looking at the people slowly closing in and the already unconscious Zhao Tianqi, Su Mu didn’t think she could break out of this circle on her own, so she asked the system.
“Host, if it were just you, I could completely teleport you away. But I can only transfer one ‘quota’ of life-form at a time, I’m afraid…” the system said with difficulty. This world was just an ordinary modern world; if super-world abilities like teleportation were used, they could easily be captured by the “Heavenly Dao” of this timeline, risking expulsion from the world. Thus, the system could only guarantee taking Su Mu away; it wasn’t sure about the woman next to her.
“One quota?” Hearing this unit of measurement, Su Mu’s expression remained unchanged. She stared steadily at the guns pointed at her and asked calmly.
“Mhm, one quota. It depends on the quota of vitality; one quota is one life.” Hearing Su Mu’s words, the system answered while opening the mall to prepare for the host’s urgent needs.
“Su Mu, actually I quite admire you. It’s a pity you followed the wrong person.” Seeing Zhao Tianqi wounded and unconscious and Su Mu seemingly having no power to resist, Muller relaxed his posture and spoke to Su Mu with regret.
“How so? Following anyone is worth more than following an old geezer like you who’s halfway into his grave.” Su Mu got angry just thinking about how this old man had made her so miserable. She had missed her flight; when Ling Wei asked about it and found out her current situation, she would surely receive some “tender” treatment from her wife.
“Young people just like to be ungrateful.” Muller wasn’t angry at Su Mu’s words but instead ordered his men to go up and drag Su Mu over.
Su Mu stood up, assumed a fighting stance, and bought “Pain Desensitization” from the system. With a side kick, she flipped a black-clad bodyguard, and meanwhile had the system load her gun, intending to kill them later.
“System, since it’s one quota of vitality, can I transfer my vitality first, and then you transfer me as a ‘dead object’?” Su Mu watched Muller staring at her like meat on a cutting board. Looking at the people on the ground, she also relaxed and suggested the system.
“This… I have never tried it.” The system was frightened by Su Mu’s bold idea. This easy transfer of vitality was also something it hadn’t handled in time; if the host remained in shock for too long, she might really die.
“Then just try it.” Su Mu hadn’t considered using items from the mall to deal with Muller and his men, but the items in the mall were either the “bewitchment” type which might not guarantee a successful escape for her and Zhao Tianqi—or the items were too expensive, and Su Mu’s points probably only covered a fraction. It was better to take a gamble.
Muller chatted with Su Mu for a long time, eloquently expressing his joy at his impending revenge. He then threw an olive branch to Su Mu, completely ignoring his fallen men, his eyes lighting up at Su Mu’s skills. However, Su Mu just looked at him coldly and kicked the person lying on the ground. Feeling his pride wounded, Muller planned to finish Su Mu and take Zhao Tianqi back to torture her to satisfy his hatred.
“Ready.” Seeing Muller’s expression turn wrong, Su Mu told the system to get ready.
“Transfer.” When Muller raised his gun, Su Mu told the system to begin the transfer, and incidentally sent a bomb to Muller. Toward someone trying to drive her to a dead end, Su Mu would show no mercy.
Over here, Jamie had been waiting for news from Su Mu and the others. Just as he was about to get out of the car, he suddenly heard a noise under the vehicle. Alert, he got out with his gun and found the two injured people. He hurriedly took Su Mu and Zhao Tianqi to the hospital.
Lin Qingqian finally got rid of the few people from the Muller family who were pestering her. Hearing the news that the two were injured, she knew it was a conspiracy. No wonder Muller’s people dared to offer 30% of their shares to trade with her; they had other motives. Thinking of the person who pestered her whose life or death was now unknown, Lin Qingqian felt the Muller family no longer needed to exist.
Hurrying to the hospital and knowing Zhao Tianqi and Su Mu were still in surgery, she waited outside the emergency room.
A few hours later, the surgeries for Su Mu and Zhao Tianqi were successful. Zhao Tianqi was out of danger, but Su Mu had never woken up; instead, she had entered a state of shock. Lin Qingqian was terrified by the news. Rubbing her throbbing temples, she didn’t know how to tell Ling Wei about Su Mu’s condition.
“!!!” Su Mu had just woken up. Smelling the disinfectant, she knew her method had worked. However, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw her wife sitting by the bed, emitting an invisible cold aura. Su Mu blinked at Ling Wei.
“You’re not dreaming,” Ling Wei said crossly, seeing Su Mu’s look. Heaven knew her mood when she had just gotten off the plane and called her cousin to ask for news, only to hear Su Mu had been shot again. This person was such a handful.
“Hehe, Weiwei, you came to see me…” Seeing Ling Wei’s somewhat cold attitude and knowing she had made her worry, Su Mu laughed foolishly, trying to make Ling Wei happy.
“Mhm.” Seeing Su Mu’s stupid look, Ling Wei rolled her eyes but felt lucky that Su Mu had gone on the mission. This way, she missed the flight; thinking of the news about the missing plane, Ling Wei still felt lingering fear.
Lin Qingqian didn’t tell Ling Wei about the abnormal phenomenon of Su Mu’s shock; she only said Su Mu was shot in the arm. But Ling Wei felt she should properly “deal with” Su Mu once her injury healed, otherwise she’d be letting down the long time she spent in fear.
“You just woke up, are you hungry?” Seeing Su Mu’s face was a bit pale, Ling Wei asked softly. Thinking for a moment, she got up, intending to get a bowl of porridge.
“Mhm.” Seeing Ling Wei leave, Su Mu touched her face with her uninjured hand. Thinking of Ling Wei’s mysterious look just now, she wondered if she had become ugly?
After lying in the hospital for a few days, Su Mu planned to be discharged. Although she received Ling Wei’s care every day, Su Mu felt that lying down was simply a waste of time and life; she should go out and have fun with her wife. Seeing the doctor say her condition was okay, Ling Wei let her be. After all, she still had to properly “take revenge” on Su Mu…
Back home, Su Mu planned to take a shower. Having lied down for days, her whole body felt wrong. She took off her top, and just after wrapping her injured hand with waterproof film, she saw Ling Wei walk in.
“Your injury hasn’t healed, I’ll come help you.” Seeing Su Mu’s surprised eyes, Ling Wei shifted her gaze and spoke with forced composure.
Looking at Su Mu’s bare upper body, Ling Wei remembered the erotic books her brother had given her this past year. Her eyes flickered. She stepped forward, peeled off the messy waterproof film Su Mu had wrapped, and rewrapped it.
Her fingers gradually drifted, sliding toward Su Mu’s shoulder and lingering at the collarbone. Slowly, her hand began to move down, mischievously squeezing Su Mu’s soft chest. Hearing Su Mu’s breathing suddenly grow heavy, her lips curled.
Her hand slid down across the abdomen, unfastened the belt she had tied for her this morning, and hung it aside. Then she unscrewed the button on Su Mu’s trousers and slowly pulled down the zipper.
Watching Ling Wei’s actions, Su Mu stared at her with reddened eyes. Watching her take off the long trousers, the seemingly inadvertent touch of her fingertips always managed to stir Su Mu’s desire.
Seeing Ling Wei stand up, Su Mu stepped forward, wanting to kiss her.
“Be good… shower first.” Ling Wei gently pushed Su Mu away, not letting her kiss her, and offered comfort to her dissatisfied gaze. Turning to pick up the showerhead, she smiled mischievously where Su Mu couldn’t see. You’re in for it in a moment.
Next, under the guise of bathing, Ling Wei practiced the art of teasing, touching Su Mu all over. Finally, after putting Su Mu in a nightgown, she kicked her out, intending to take a shower herself.
Waiting outside for ages without seeing Ling Wei come out, Su Mu was just about to enter the bathroom to tease Ling Wei back when she saw her come out in a nightgown. Because of the steam, Ling Wei’s face had a beautiful blush. Her long hair was draped loosely over her back, with a few black strands falling over her chest, moving slightly with her steps. It made Su Mu’s heart restless.
Seeing Su Mu’s eyes fixed on her, Ling Wei gave her a slight smile and sat directly on the edge of the bed. Su Mu didn’t hesitate and kissed Ling Wei directly; the long-accumulated desire began to explode.
Su Mu kissed Ling Wei, pressing her onto the bed as their lips and teeth intertwined. Her other hand also began to move around unruly. Ling Wei didn’t stop her, only taking care not to hurt Su Mu’s hand. When Su Mu’s hand reached into the nightgown and moved about, Ling Wei couldn’t help but let out a moan. Hearing it made Su Mu’s blood boil, and the kisses gradually moved downward.
Feeling Su Mu’s movements, Ling Wei’s sinking heart suddenly remembered her purpose. She pressed down on Su Mu’s hand and said in a husky voice, “Mu Mu, your hand is injured, don’t move around.”
Su Mu broke free from Ling Wei’s hand and was about to continue when Ling Wei pressed her down again. Meeting Ling Wei’s determined eyes, Su Mu turned over dejectedly and moved away from Ling Wei.
Ling Wei was startled by Su Mu’s sudden turn. She hurriedly got up to check and found the wound hadn’t split. Relieved, and seeing Su Mu’s “life is not worth living” expression, her heart softened. But thinking of how Su Mu often did dangerous things, her resolve to play a prank became firm again. She touched Su Mu’s face, then turned off the light, intending to sleep.
Over here, the system, which had just returned from having fun, could feel Su Mu’s despair through the screen. It looked bewildered: Aren’t you sleeping nicely with the Female Lead? Why are you still unhappy?
