Love App, Girl, Come And Taste My Blood - Chapter 108
To put it simply, the actress’s affection for her during the time she was with her might have all been fake.
Seeing Ye Wushuang’s expression becoming more and more serious, the actress smiled lightly. She continued, “Don’t be so wary. The reason I told you my identity is that I intend to get along with you peacefully.” As she spoke, she placed her phone on the table and assumed a relaxed posture.
Her eyes were filled with confidence, and her aura changed from the inside out. It was as if she had switched to another identity in that instant.
“Is that also an actor’s skill?”
“No, this is my passive skill—Acting.”
“Passive skill? Acting?”
Ye Wushuang thought of the junior reporter. Her passive skill was Chameleon, which allowed her to hide herself at any time. The actress was also talking about her passive skill, but why couldn’t she see her own passive skill?
Ye Wushuang was a little confused. She saw the actress continue to explain, “Yes, my profession is an actor, and my passive skill is Acting. The characteristics of an actor allow me to remember everything I see, and I can even use the skills of acting out roles. And Acting allows me to completely become someone else. My profession and passive skill complement each other perfectly.”
The actress explained the relationship between her profession and passive skill in detail. But they should be enemies. Why was the actress so forthcoming? Ye Wushuang was confused and a little uneasy. She saw the actress looking at her and slowly said, “What’s your passive skill? I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, but I have no idea.”
Clearly, she was using her secret to exchange for Ye Wushuang’s secret.
As she spoke, she leaned forward, as if afraid that a third person would hear their whispers. Ye Wushuang felt a chill run down her spine. It wasn’t because the actress was trying to get information from her, but because in that instant, she clearly felt something behind her, staring at her.
Ye Wushuang concentrated, but no matter how she looked, there was no one around.
Seeing Ye Wushuang fall silent, the actress became even more affectionate. She took Ye Wushuang’s hand, her fingertips caressing her palm. It was clear that she wanted to stir Ye Wushuang’s soul with this method. Her eyes were filled with affection, as if she were looking at her lover. She said softly, “Well, I’ve told you everything. Can’t you tell me this secret?”
Her voice was seductive and charming, her tone so gentle that it was as if she wanted to suffocate Ye Wushuang. If Ye Wushuang hadn’t known the actress’s routine, she would have been deceived by this illusion.
It was a bit like a charm, but it was a little off. It was as if it was just a role tailored to Ye Wushuang’s taste.
“This, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I don’t know.” Ye Wushuang explained awkwardly. She still didn’t know what her passive skill was, and she didn’t know how this world worked, since everyone could save and reload.
“How could you not know? Look at your personal information on your phone. There’s a place that says passive skill.” The actress couldn’t believe it. She urged Ye Wushuang to open her phone and find the place where the passive skill was.
Ye Wushuang really opened her phone and pointed to the place where her passive skill was.
“Look for yourself. It says Unknown in this place where the passive skill is. It says that you have to figure out what your passive skill is yourself before you can see the content here.” Ye Wushuang was quite helpless. She could see her passive skill after the last update, but she didn’t expect that this dating app would leave her a riddle.
Ye Wushuang thought hard, but she had no clue about her passive skill.
The actress seemed surprised as well. “Your passive skill should have been something you could experience when you got the dating app. You’ve had it for so long, and you still don’t know?”
Ye Wushuang could only shake her head. But she was also relieved that her passive skill was Unknown. Although she didn’t know if the gaze she had felt before was from the so-called proxy god of love, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but be cautious. She had almost died during the last reload, and this time, she absolutely wouldn’t repeat the same mistake.
And the actress wasn’t as innocent as she seemed.
Ye Wushuang had to continue playing psychological warfare with the actress. It was almost dark, and neither of them had asked anything valuable. At this time, the celebrity’s daughter and the librarian returned, and a day of hell ended.
“It’s almost time for dinner. Go and call that little girl down.” The librarian’s father instructed Ye Wushuang. Out of everyone, besides his daughter, he was the most familiar with Ye Wushuang.
Having so many people in their home was a rare occurrence for the librarian’s family. Ye Wushuang felt a little embarrassed. She had originally planned to go home today, but even Qiu Ruishi didn’t know how she had been kept here.
“Okay, I’ll go call her now.” Ye Wushuang nodded in agreement and then went upstairs.
The houses here were all multi-story, covered with cement walls. Although they were simple, they had a unique charm.
Ye Wushuang stepped on the wooden stairs. The floor creaked under her feet, as if it would break at any moment. Ye Wushuang walked carefully, but the sound was still loud.
She walked up to the second floor and pushed open the librarian’s room.
In the room, Qiu Ruishi was lying in bed. She was lying on her side, hugging the blanket, her brows furrowed in unease, as if she had had a terrible dream. Ye Wushuang’s footsteps were slow, afraid of disturbing Qiu Ruishi, who was asleep. But after thinking for a moment, she realized that she had come up to call Qiu Ruishi for dinner, so she increased her pace a little.
But Qiu Ruishi, who had been on high alert, didn’t notice Ye Wushuang approaching. Ye Wushuang felt a little sorry for her, thinking of the scene she had seen through Blood Tasting. But even so, she still had to wake Qiu Ruishi up. Ye Wushuang approached the bedside and gently called out, “Qiu Ruishi, wake up. It’s time for dinner.”
But Qiu Ruishi, who was asleep, didn’t react to Ye Wushuang at all. It was clear that she was sleeping soundly. Ye Wushuang continued to approach, wanting to pat her shoulder and wake her up.
In a flash, Qiu Ruishi abruptly opened her eyes and swung her hand towards Ye Wushuang. Ye Wushuang dodged swiftly, grabbing Qiu Ruishi’s hands and hurriedly explaining, “Qiu Ruishi, it’s me, not your sister.”
Qiu Ruishi seemed to finally find her focus. She adjusted her slightly messy bangs. “Sorry.” As she spoke, she lowered her head, as if she was trying to stay awake.
“What’s wrong? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?”
“Yeah, I’m much better… I just had a strange dream.” Qiu Ruishi replied.
“What kind of dream was it?” Ye Wushuang asked again. She felt that the reason she had a dream about the god of love was probably because of Qiu Ruishi’s unconscious actions.
Qiu Ruishi raised her head when she heard this. She stared at Ye Wushuang for a moment before saying, “I can’t remember.”
Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but laugh, but she also felt that it was normal. Many people couldn’t remember the content of their dreams after waking up. Even if the dream was very important to them.
“Did I have any strange reactions just now?”
“No, you were the same as usual.” Ye Wushuang thought for a moment and replied. She didn’t feel that Qiu Ruishi had any special reactions just now, but she felt like her answer was too ordinary. She continued to add, “But you’re still the same as before. You’re still defensive in your dreams. You almost slapped me again.”
Ye Wushuang saw that Qiu Ruishi was lost in her dream troubles again. She had to interrupt her train of thought. If Qiu Ruishi woke up even a little, the success rate of Ye Wushuang’s plan would decrease by a little.
“It seems you’re still complaining. Should I give you a memorable lesson now?” Qiu Ruishi heard Ye Wushuang’s teasing. Her eyes narrowed slightly, like a lion staring at its prey.
Ye Wushuang chuckled and didn’t dare to act up. She saw Qiu Ruishi sitting in front of the mirror.
“Hey, we’re going downstairs for dinner. Why are you sitting down again?” Ye Wushuang was quite helpless, but seeing Qiu Ruishi hand her a comb, she couldn’t help but help her fix her hair.
“How can I go downstairs looking like this? I have to at least fix my hair.” Qiu Ruishi looked at Ye Wushuang and explained her reason for stopping.
“Then, Miss Qiu, do you want to wash your hair too?” Thinking of the most popular trend among girls, washing their hair before going out, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but tease her.
“Yeah, that’s a good idea.” Qiu Ruishi narrowed her eyes again. This time, Ye Wushuang had already started to help her fix her hair.
“Qiu Ruishi, you’re so refined even when you’re alive. I wonder if your future partner will be able to handle you.” Ye Wushuang sighed, casually probing Qiu Ruishi’s requirements for a lover.
“They won’t.”
“So sure? Where does your confidence come from?” Ye Wushuang was incredibly surprised. Although she also understood that as long as Qiu Ruishi nodded, a group of people would follow her and spoil her rotten.
“Don’t forget my curse. If there really is such a person, then they will definitely have to overcome more than ordinary people. They will also cherish me even more.” Qiu Ruishi smiled and explained her reasons. But compared to before, she seemed to have developed a little interest in love. You could even say she was looking forward to it.
This was a dangerous warning for Ye Wushuang, but she had to pretend nothing was wrong. She inquired, “Has that person appeared? I heard from your little cousin that there seems to be a boy in your hometown who is very aggressively pursuing you.”
This was half true and half false. Ye Wushuang only knew that Qiu Ruishi’s little cousin disliked a boy, but she didn’t know if that boy met Qiu Ruishi’s standards.
Qiu Ruishi chuckled. “You’re really good friends with my little cousin.”
“I just saw that your little cousin was lonely and miserable. So, is what he said true?”
Ye Wushuang was a little anxious. Qiu Ruishi started to laugh, which meant that she was hiding something about this matter.
“Did you hear my little cousin say that he really likes me and wants to marry me in the future?” Just when Ye Wushuang thought her probing would go more smoothly, Qiu Ruishi’s words took a turn.
Ye Wushuang was stunned. Qiu Ruishi stared at her and laughed again. It was a more brilliant smile than before. She kept a proper distance, refusing Ye Wushuang’s approach. But the difference was that when she smiled, a red thread would faintly appear on her fingertips.
The red thread gradually glowed, greedily absorbing Qiu Ruishi’s emotions. Then, Qiu Ruishi’s smile became flat, as if she had forgotten the topic.
Maybe it was because of the level upgrade that Ye Wushuang could see this red thread. Or maybe it was the parable from the dream.
Although she still couldn’t fully understand what was going on, Ye Wushuang carefully recalled that every time Ye Wushuang wanted to take the initiative to pursue Qiu Ruishi, Qiu Ruishi seemed very happy, but nothing happened next.
Before, Ye Wushuang didn’t understand why she and Qiu Ruishi had kissed so many times but hadn’t taken the next step. She also didn’t understand why the proxy god of love wanted Qiu Ruishi so badly but didn’t have any intention of pursuing her.
Now, thinking about it, it was because of this red thread’s fate that no one could actively pursue her except for the person destined to be alone.
This meant that as long as Ye Wushuang took one wrong step, the affection she had accumulated with Qiu Ruishi would be reset by the red thread.
God, this is the most difficult love in the world. Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but mutter to herself, feeling that her romance journey was longer than she had imagined.
