Su Mu sat behind Ling Wei, with her back to Murong Yun. The light was dim, so neither of them noticed that Su Mu was secretly eavesdropping. Hearing Murong Yun say shamelessly, “With me here, you can rest assured,” Su Mu couldn’t help but spit internally—it was precisely because he was there that she couldn’t rest assured.
Meanwhile, Ling Wei didn’t notice anything unusual at all. Hearing Murong Yun’s words, she directly drank that glass of wine. Because the drug was slow-acting, and Murong Yun had specifically told them to put in a smaller dose to make Ling Wei mistakenly believe the wine simply had a strong after-effect, Ling Wei didn’t have much of a reaction yet.
“Let’s go… I’ll take you back.” Seeing Ling Wei drink the wine, Murong Yun breathed a sigh of relief, intending to take Ling Wei to get down to “business.”
“Okay.” Seeing that Murong Yun was no longer pestering her, Ling Wei nodded, her expression somewhat cold.
While sitting in Murong Yun’s car, Ling Wei suddenly felt the objects before her eyes swaying; she felt dizzy all over, and a sense of burning heat began to rise. She realized something was wrong but only thought her alcohol tolerance was too low, so she urged Murong Yun to take her home quickly while she leaned against the car window to rest with her eyes closed.
As Ling Wei endured the unstoppable burning heat, she discovered that Murong Yun had actually brought her to a guesthouse. She realized what Murong Yun wanted to do, but her entire body was weak and limp; she couldn’t move at all.
“Ding… Female lead’s favorability toward the male lead -10, currently at 50.”
“Ding… Favorability is now balanced; the female lead will no longer be influenced by the World Power.”
Murong Yun parked the car at the entrance and directly carried Ling Wei halfway into the hotel to open a room. However, just as Murong Yun brought Ling Wei into the room, Ling Wei suddenly vomited. The vomit splashed onto Murong Yun’s pants. Seeing his pants get soiled, Murong Yun’s face darkened; he threw Ling Wei onto the bed and went into the bathroom himself.
Su Mu, who had been watching the system monitor at the door the whole time, saw Murong Yun enter the restroom. She opened the room door, went in, gently picked Ling Wei up, and carried her into the neighboring room she had just opened.
“System, check my points.”
“Host, your initial points were 1,000. Adding the recently completed daily and side tasks, and subtracting the temporary ‘Six Meridian Divine Sword’ from last time and the ‘Vomit Potion’ just now, your total points are now 1,700.”
“Mhm. Open the mall and buy ‘Soul-Confuser Powder’.”
“Ding… Purchase successful, -100 points.”
“Host, please choose the type of confusion: 1. Disgusting Type [feels like one is surrounded by vomit]; 2. Nightmare Type [feels like one is surrounded by venomous snakes]; 3. Perverted Type [feels like many same-sex individuals with ill intentions are trying to do something to them].”
“Can I have them all together?” Su Mu raised an eyebrow. If she didn’t torment this “scum dog” to death, she would be doing a disservice to how long she had been holding back.
“Cough… Fine.” The system silently lit a candle for Murong Yun. A jealous host is truly terrifying; it seems that in the future, one can offend anyone except the female lead.
While Su Mu was telling the system to drug Murong Yun, Ling Wei’s drug effect became more intense.
Turning around, Su Mu saw Ling Wei’s face was flushed red as she pulled at her clothes, revealing her delicate collarbones. She quickly blocked the system’s camera, leaving only the audio communication her own “little wife” was for her eyes only.
Seeing that Ling Wei was about to continue pulling her clothes down, Su Mu rushed forward and used her hands to pin down Ling Wei’s restless hands. Two buttons on the shirt Ling Wei wore today had already been torn off by her own pulling; if she wasn’t stopped, she would strip herself naked sooner or later.
But then again… the “little wife’s” skin was really good. Su Mu looked at Ling Wei’s exposed skin with a red face, her heart feeling a bit stirred.
“Mm… so hot…” Ling Wei’s consciousness was blurred by the heat. She could only vaguely tell that the person in front of her was not Murong Yun, and her heart relaxed. However, seeing the person lean down, she became nervous again.
Su Mu was startled awake by Ling Wei’s voice. She shook her head to toss out those stirred thoughts. Seeing Ling Wei’s pained expression, she leaned down and reached out to touch her forehead, finding the temperature alarmingly high. Knowing that letting this continue wasn’t an option, she patted Ling Wei’s face, trying to make her wake up a bit.
Although Ling Wei opened her eyes, her gaze was misty; it was clear her consciousness was unclear. Taking advantage of Su Mu releasing her hands, she reached out again to tug at her clothes, and another button was sacrificed.
Seeing this, Su Mu whispered into Ling Wei’s ear: “Weiwei, bear with it for a moment. I’ll take off your clothes first; you’ll feel better after soaking in cold water.”
As she spoke, ignoring her shyness, she quickly undid Ling Wei’s clothes. With a princess carry, she picked Ling Wei up and walked quickly into the bathroom. After placing Ling Wei in the bathtub, she used the showerhead to spray Ling Wei’s body, letting the cold water lower the temperature. She herself stared at the floor, not daring to move her eyes an inch lest she lose control of her “wolfish heart.” She really admired herself for not being “handsy” while taking off the clothes.
“System, how long does she need to soak in cold water?” Su Mu asked the system while filling the tub to distract herself.
“Mm… the drug used on the female lead isn’t very strong. Soaking for half an hour should be fine,” the system guessed, even though it couldn’t see the actual situation.
“But Host, according to the usual plot tropes, shouldn’t you ‘get to work’ and then have an emotional breakthrough?” the system asked curiously, flipping through the novels it had read.
“Do you know how?” Su Mu rolled her eyes and couldn’t help but sigh. She wasn’t some saint; the reason she hadn’t done anything was BE-CAUSE! SHE! DIDN’T! KNOW! HOW!
#It’s so painful to be able to look but not eat, but who understands the pain of completely not knowing how to do it…#
“I don’t know…”
#For the Host’s happiness, I should find a day to ask the system next door.#
“Mm… Mu Mu, why are you here?” As soon as Ling Wei’s scorching body touched the cold water, she couldn’t help but shiver. The “world of ice and fire” made Ling Wei frown in discomfort, but her mind became clearer. Recognizing the person before her was Su Mu, she spoke up and asked.
“Well, I work at the bar. I happened to see you and noticed your state wasn’t quite right, so I followed you. I saw Murong Yun carrying you into the hotel, and fearing you were in danger, I followed you in. Later, I secretly carried you out. This is the room I opened in the hotel.” Hearing Ling Wei’s question, Su Mu spoke with a mix of truth and lies.
Upon hearing Su Mu’s words, Ling Wei remembered the scene from just now. If it weren’t for Su Mu, she might have…
At that thought, Ling Wei couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart. Why would Brother Yun treat her like this? He clearly wasn’t this disrespectful before.
“Then how do you feel now? Do you want me to carry you back to bed?” Seeing Ling Wei’s somewhat dejected expression, Su Mu decided she couldn’t let Ling Wei think about that “scum man” anymore and spoke up to ask.
Hearing Su Mu’s words, Ling Wei finally realized her situation lying stark naked in the bathtub and her face turned bright red instantly.
“Hehe, I didn’t expect you to have such a good figure, Weiwei. Look at these curves…” Seeing Ling Wei’s blushing face, Su Mu’s mischievous side came out. She intentionally used a light, wicked tone to tease her.
“Shut up…” Hearing Su Mu’s flirting words, Ling Wei was both angry and embarrassed. As expected, this person was a “pervert.”
Seeing Ling Wei’s embarrassed rage, Su Mu knew the drug effect had passed. She drained the water and used a bath towel to carefully dry the water off Ling Wei’s body.
Ling Wei’s face grew even redder from Su Mu’s movements, but she didn’t speak out to refuse. After all, the drug effect had passed, and her strength had left with it; she simply had no strength to put on clothes herself.
“Ding… Female lead’s favorability +5.”
While Su Mu was drying Ling Wei, her fingers accidentally touched Ling Wei’s skin. Feeling how good it felt, she couldn’t help but secretly slide her fingers a few more times, then pretended to naturally continue putting the hotel bathrobe on her. She took a secret peek at Ling Wei and, seeing she had no extreme reaction, placed her on the bed. The entire movement was smooth and practiced.
“Weiwei, since the drug effect is over, let’s go to sleep.” Su Mu glanced at the clock on the wall and saw it was already midnight, so she planned to sleep.
“Mhm…” Ling Wei couldn’t help but think in a “crooked” direction upon hearing Su Mu’s words. Fortunately, her face was already red, so Su Mu didn’t notice anything.
On one side, Su Mu was holding Ling Wei and falling asleep, the atmosphere between the two of them being incredibly good. On Murong Yun’s side, however, things were not going well.
Murong Yun had intended to take a quick shower and then enjoy the night with his little fiancée, only to find that what came out of the showerhead wasn’t water, but disgusting vomit. The vomit washed over his body, making his face turn green. He tried other faucets only to find that everything coming out was unknown liquids. Disgusted, Murong Yun went straight out the door, wanting to call and complain.
But as soon as he went out, he found his “little wife” in the room was gone, replaced by several naked men staring at him with lecherous eyes. Murong Yun’s face turned pale. He loudly warned them that he was the young master of the Murong family and told them to get out quickly or they would pay for it. However, after hearing this, these men did not retreat but instead advanced, forcing Murong Yun back step by step. Murong Yun turned and rushed into the bathroom, locking the door.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard a “hissing” sound. Hearing the sound of this unknown creature, Murong Yun’s body stiffened. He turned around to find the floor covered in snakes. He was scared white, his hands trembling as he tried desperately to turn the lock, only to find it wouldn’t open. Terrified, Murong Yun’s lower abdomen tightened, and he wet himself.
Murong Yun cried out for help, pounding desperately on the bathroom door, but the only response was the lewd laughter of the men outside. Murong Yun felt the snakes crawling up his thighs. His mind collapsed. He wanted to stay still but couldn’t stop his body from trembling. The cold, slimy sensation made Murong Yun cry out in a breakdown, his whole body twitching incessantly. Finally, unable to endure the terror, he fainted.
