I Was Supposed to Be the Villainess, Now You're Telling Me I'm the Female Lead? - Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Meat Delivered to the Mouth

***

In the dim room

Lying on the bed, feeling her whole body burning up, her head also a bit unclear, Bai Ning, no matter how slow she was, understood at this moment that she definitely wasn’t drunk, there was something wrong with that glass of fruit wine.

As for the culprit, she didn’t need to think about it. It must be Nan Ziyue, after all, the person she had offended most severely here was Nan Ziyue.

Since there was a problem with the fruit wine, that meant the waiter from earlier was most likely also problematic.

Realizing this, Bai Ning forced her somewhat weak body to sit up.

She couldn’t continue staying inside. If there were a protagonist, that would be fine, she would definitely come to save her. But now the protagonist was nowhere to be found, and she had to endure all the hardships that the female lead suffered, and could only rely on herself.

“System, is there any way you can help me resolve this?”

A soft, glutinous voice with a hint of hoarseness rang out, Bai Ning panting heavily.

[I tried my best, no way, just wait to be dealt with]

A triple combo directly made Bai Ning’s already confused head even more confused.

“I’m really not joking. If there’s no antidote, can there be other methods?”

[Why don’t you find a hidden room? Others might not be able to see you, so you can just improvise]

“How is that useful!”

Bai Ning was somewhat speechless. This system shouldn’t be called the feedback value system, it might as well be called the abstract value system.

[Look on the bright side, at least nothing weird will happen]

“Hah~”

Sighing helplessly, Bai Ning stopped counting on the system. Just as she was about to get up and go outside to look for Nan Zha, the system’s voice suddenly came again.

[I wasn’t talking just now because I went to upgrade. I applied to higher-ups for some functions that might help with your current situation]

As the words fell, a map-like thing suddenly appeared before Bai Ning’s eyes, with a green dot on it, and then several red dots.

“What is this?”

[It’s basically a way to see villainous supporting characters and cannon fodder characters within a small range in the plot. Consider it a warning system]

Listening to the system’s explanation, Bai Ning forced her somewhat dizzy head to focus and began observing.

The green dot should be herself, and the red dots should be villainous supporting character types.

However, the red dots on this map were a bit beyond Bai Ning’s expectations. It showed 3 red dots, 2 particularly large red dots and 1 small red dot, with one of the large red dots currently very close to the small red dot.

The small red dot should be Nan Ziyue, and the 2 large red dots should be one being Nan Zha and one being Jiang Xiyue.

After Bai Ning figured this out, she swayed as she stood up, preparing to walk toward the single large red dot.

That small red dot and large red dot were together. Thinking about what Nan Zha said about Nan Ziyue trying to gain the Jiang family’s support, Bai Ning felt this must be Nan Ziyue meeting with Jiang Xiyue, and Nan Zha definitely couldn’t be staying so harmoniously with Nan Ziyue.

She had to go find Nan Zha. Although Nan Zha was also a villainous supporting character, they had gotten along for several months after all, so she was definitely more reliable than that Jiang Xiyue.

Pushing open the door, swaying unsteadily, step by step walking outside, Bai Ning endured until the veins on her forehead showed. She only felt her mouth was very dry, her mind confused, her body getting hotter and hotter. She was afraid she might collapse at any moment if she wasn’t careful.

Treating her like a Japanese girl, huh? Just how much did that damn Nan Ziyue put in there!?

However, although she felt like she was about to lose consciousness, Bai Ning still supported herself against the wall and persevered to reach her destination.

To be honest, the female lead really was durable. If a normal person had been drugged, who could still walk this far? They would have lost consciousness long ago.

The door wasn’t locked. Using her last bit of strength, she pushed open the door.

The room was very dark inside. Not far away there seemed to be a large piece of glass, and a familiar tall figure was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, observing the scene below.

After hearing the sound of the door opening, she turned around to look.

The moment she saw her, a surprised expression appeared on Jiang Xiyue’s face.

She had just been observing from here, looking for Bai Ning’s figure below, and now the person had directly appeared before her.

But…

She looked somewhat abnormal

The person before her eyes was covered in sweat, her gaze hazy, breathing roughly, her body seemingly soaked through with sweat.

In summary, all that was missing now was her eyes not having heart shapes.

Jiang Xiyue of course knew what was happening with this appearance, after all, this was a genre she quite enjoyed reading.

Just as Jiang Xiyue was still frowning, wondering who would do such a thing, somehow, Bai Ning had already swayed her way in front of her.

When she came back to her senses and was about to ask Bai Ning something, suddenly, two hands embraced her neck all at once. Caught off guard, Jiang Xiyue was directly pulled into a stumble, her upper body leaning down.

Before she could recover from this move, two soft pieces pressed against her.

Feeling the sensation on her lips, smelling the fragrance at the tip of her nose, even Jiang Xiyue, who was born with a naturally indifferent temperament, had her heartbeat accelerate at this moment.

[Jiang Xiyue surprised, confused, happy, feedback value +106]

Bai Ning, who had lost her normal thinking ability, completely failed to realize that the person in front of her wasn’t quite right. She was completely indifferent to the system’s notification sound. Moreover, she seemed unsatisfied with this state, clinging to Jiang Xiyue’s body like an octopus.

Bai Ning’s consciousness was now completely gone, her entire being dominated, smelling the familiar scent before her, she began to restlessly move her hands up and down.

The suddenly increased force caused even Jiang Xiyue, who exercised daily and had good physical fitness, to stumble forward several steps. It seemed that due to losing her center of gravity, Jiang Xiyue fell straight forward.

The two fell to the ground together, with Bai Ning still being the one on the bottom. Fortunately, the floor was carpeted, so this fall wasn’t heavy.

If it were any other person in this state barging into her room, they probably wouldn’t even get close to her before she would have had them thrown out without a second word. But seeing Bai Ning in this alluring state, Jiang Xiyue couldn’t help but swallow.

This feeling was like the person you’ve been longing for day and night suddenly coming to seduce you with a charming expression.

Although she knew it was wrong, that it was taking advantage of someone’s vulnerability, that was only true for ordinary people. She, Jiang Xiyue, didn’t have that many moral principles, her principles were flexible and changeable.

Moreover, when meat is delivered to your mouth, how could there be any reason not to take it?

As for this being a trap set by business opponents, she thought the possibility was small, and besides, she no longer cared. After all, her purpose in controlling the Jiang family was also for this matter. Since she could complete it ahead of schedule, why would she care about these things?

Looking at Bai Ning, who was still buried against her chest, Jiang Xiyue’s breathing gradually became rapid.
