The Delicate Female Lead Only Wants to be Loved by the Villainous Young Ladies

Chapter 219

Soon, the ride Tang Linlang had ordered with trembling hands arrived.

Adele, holding the cat, got into the car first, followed by Tang Linlang.

Through the rearview mirror, the driver saw the snow-white kitten whimpering pitifully in Adele’s arms.

“What’s wrong with the kitten?”

The uncle asked curiously.

Adele couldn’t help but smile wryly, her hand stroking First Snow even more gently.

“Maybe… she’s heartbroken.”

“?”

What kind of answer was that?

But the driver didn’t pursue the matter further, his responsibility was only to take passengers to their destination.

Under Adele’s gentle strokes, the poor little First Snow finally gradually recovered.

But her bright eyes, peeking out from Adele’s arms, still stared at Tang Linlang beside Adele with a hint of displeasure.

Linlang was still immersed in the huge surprise and naturally didn’t notice First Snow’s gaze.

But the girl’s strong emotions made the Gu Realm stir restlessly.

A feeling like being bitten by insects erupted in Tang Linlang’s heart.

If it was just this pain, she could still endure it.

Or rather, the girl had endured pain for a long, long time, constantly fighting against the Gu worms in the Gu Realm. Those that could coexist would coexist, and those that couldn’t, she would defeat them with her strong will…

Because only in this way could Tang Linlang avoid falling and completely conquer the “Gu Realm.”

And Adele knew nothing about this.

This also showed Tang Linlang’s honest and enduring personality, burying everything in her heart and silently enduring.

Otherwise, if she just acted a little pitiful, or rather, not “acted,” just revealed a little of the pain and torment she was currently experiencing to Adele…

Adele wouldn’t be able to ignore her suffering, the girl would only feel distressed for Tang Linlang.

“…”

Tang Linlang bit her lip, still silently enduring.

She even occasionally snuck a glance at Adele, and seeing that Adele hadn’t noticed anything unusual, she felt relieved.

Because in her heart, true love shouldn’t make the other person worry.

But for Adele, the “love” she understood should be mutual, not something to be endured alone, that would only tarnish love.

Always trust the person you love, believe that they would never leave you.

Perhaps no one would have thought that the first one to notice Tang Linlang’s abnormality would be First Snow, the kitten in Adele’s arms, who was paying close attention to her love rival.

At first, she just wanted to stare at Tang Linlang with dissatisfaction.

But gradually, First Snow felt something was wrong.

The girl in front of her seemed to be in pain!

And there was a special power faintly emanating from her body, related to “space.”

Because First Snow was a kitten with great magic talent, she had comprehended short-distance teleportation magic, one of the highest-level spatial magics, without any guidance.

So she would naturally be sensitive to anything related to the “laws of space.”

The “Gu Realm” happened to be such an existence.

Theoretically, it was a “wormhole.” Of course, the “wormhole” here wasn’t the kind described in scientific theories, but it did have some similar properties.

The Tang family discovered the Gu Realm in ancient times and used it to kill countless vampires.

At that time, vampires were rampant and powerful, and the Tang family believed that this was a divine artifact bestowed upon them by heaven to fight against vampires.

Just like how some vampires could make contracts with creatures from other worlds…

There were also strong-willed people in the Tang family who could make contracts with the Gu Realm, using their willpower to resist its erosion and even command the otherworldly Gu worms within it.

Yes, none of the Gu worms existing in the Gu Realm existed in the real world, they had grotesque appearances and different abilities, all from another world.

And the Gu Realm was more like a bridge connecting that other world to the real world, a narrow passage, so calling it a “wormhole” was the perfect metaphor.

No one knew whether these Gu worms wanted to break through the limitations of the Gu Realm and descend into this world.

But the fact that the Tang family could think of a way to contract with it was a desperate struggle against the rampant vampires at that time.

But for some reason, after the crisis passed, Tang Linlang’s ancestors sealed it and forbade their descendants from using the Gu Realm again.

This reminded Tang Linlang of an ancient legend.

It was said that the user of the Gu Realm, while being the master of the Gu worms, would also become the Gu Realm’s nourishment.

And the “Gu Realm” wasn’t just a “wormhole.”

The most shocking speculation was that it was the egg of a powerful creature from another world, it had to parasitize a human body to gain the continuous power needed to hatch.

Just because this egg of an unknown otherworldly creature was too large, there were countless Gu worms parasitizing within it.

Like probiotics in the human body, they had a symbiotic relationship.

And the day it hatched would be the day the host died.

The authenticity of this legend was questionable.

But one thing was certain, the ancestors of the Tang family must have discovered the drawbacks of the Gu Realm, which was why they forbade their descendants from making contracts with it after the crisis passed.

And – “gaining powerful strength out of thin air would definitely come at a great cost.”

This was almost an undeniable truth.

After discovering that Tang Linlang seemed to be unwell, and sensing the existence of that “spatial aura,” First Snow reacted quickly.

The little guy pawed at Adele’s clothes with her soft paws and pink pads, meowing anxiously.

“Meow!”

“Meow!”

At first, Adele didn’t think much of it, thinking that First Snow was just throwing a tantrum again.

And since they were in someone else’s car, Adele just patted First Snow’s head and said softly,

“Don’t be naughty, First Snow.”

First Snow looked at Adele, confused.

She had just discovered something strange and wanted to remind Adele, meow.

The kitten felt wronged, and her tail continued to sway restlessly, as if she wanted to break free from Adele’s arms.

Adele finally realized that First Snow wasn’t the kind of kitten who would cause trouble for no reason.

Her sudden actions must have a reason.

So the girl slightly loosened her grip on First Snow, wanting to see what First Snow would do next.

As expected, First Snow jumped out of Adele’s arms.

Fortunately, she didn’t shed any fur, and the driver didn’t pay much attention, otherwise, letting a cat roam free in the car would usually result in the passenger being asked to leave.

First Snow landed lightly on the soft cushion of the back seat without making a sound, her raised tail helping her maintain balance.

Then she leaped again, gracefully.

And this time, she landed on Tang Linlang’s lap, who had a pained expression on her face.

This sudden action startled Tang Linlang, who was silently enduring the pain caused by the awakening of the Gu Realm.

Then, she met First Snow’s pure and innocent gaze.

“What’s… wrong with her?”

Tang Linlang covered her lower abdomen with one hand, pretending to be indifferent, and turned to ask Adele.

Before Adele could answer, First Snow moved closer to Tang Linlang.

Normally, Adele might say, this is First Snow’s way of showing affection, she didn’t expect that Tang Linlang was so popular with cats.

But now, Adele also clearly sensed something and continued to watch First Snow’s actions intently.

“Meow?”

“Meow…”

First Snow finally stopped in front of Tang Linlang’s covered lower abdomen and meowed twice, seemingly confused and sympathetic.

She could tell that the older sister in front of her was uncomfortable.

If Adele liked her, she should have noticed this earlier!

That’s why First Snow was trying to remind Adele in this way.

Fortunately, she succeeded.

Adele keenly sensed that there might be something wrong with Tang Linlang’s body, which was why First Snow was so nervous.

She quickly asked,

“Linlang, are you feeling unwell?”

“…N-no.”

Tang Linlang clearly panicked, shaking her head with a flustered expression.

Adele became even more anxious because she understood that this was Tang Linlang’s way of not wanting her to worry.

But love should be mutual!

How could one person silently endure the pain while the other remained indifferent?

“Driver, please stop at the city center hospital ahead!”

“No! No need!”

“What do you mean no need? You’re clearly unwell!”

Adele’s anxious tone and expression made Tang Linlang’s heart flutter.

Seeing that the driver was about to turn towards the city center hospital…

And realizing that she could no longer hide it from Adele, nor did she need to, Tang Linlang bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind.

Then, she leaned close to Adele’s ear and whispered, just loud enough for Adele to hear,

“Adele, don’t go to the hospital, just go home!”

“I’m not sick, I just…”

“Anyway, I’ll tell you everything, Adele.”

Since Tang Linlang had said so, Adele also realized that Tang Linlang’s problem probably wasn’t something that could be solved by going to a human hospital.

So she asked the driver to go back to the original route.

She would transfer the extra fare to the driver, giving him a generous reward.

About ten minutes later, they arrived at their destination.

It was a high-end residential area where Tang Linlang lived alone.

Because her family only consisted of her and her father, and Tang Linlang had grown up, it was no longer appropriate for her to live with her father.

So she proposed to rent an apartment by herself, closer to the academy, so it would be convenient for her to go to and from school.

Tang Linlang’s father also knew that Tang Linlang had always longed for a more modern and intelligent life.

Plus, considering that with her current abilities, she could completely protect herself even when living alone, he finally agreed after much deliberation.

But Tang Linlang’s father probably didn’t expect that another major reason why his daughter wanted to live alone…

Was to have the space and opportunity to be with Adele…

Ahem, it was a bit embarrassing to say, but this only existed in Tang Linlang’s fantasies.

Compared to the other girls, she was indeed a bit less proactive and less thick-skinned.

And because she was so honest, Adele also had to pretend to be a “proper lady” and couldn’t easily reveal her true nature to Tang Linlang.

Until today, they finally had the opportunity to be alone together.

But the current Adele was more concerned about Tang Linlang’s health, so she put her desire for romance aside for a while.

Tang Linlang finally stopped pretending and showed her vulnerable side.

With Adele’s support, they entered the residential area together, walked along the path, entered the building, and took the elevator up.

It was worth mentioning that First Snow had already completed her mission, reminding the oblivious Adele and making her aware of Tang Linlang’s abnormality, then she quietly slipped away and returned to school.

The sensible kitten gave them time to be alone.

As for herself, as long as it wasn’t curfew yet, First Snow would probably choose to stay in Adele’s dormitory and wait for her return.

Adele was very indulgent towards First Snow, even when she wasn’t in the dormitory, she was willing to let First Snow come and go as she pleased, not caring if First Snow might invade her privacy.

This was already treating First Snow as one of her own.

Winona also had to gradually accept this fact.

That was, First Snow’s familiarity with Adele’s dormitory was almost catching up to her familiarity with Winona’s residence, which she had moved into after becoming the principal of Cromwell Academy!

By now, it was hard to tell where First Snow’s real home was.

Or rather, one was her parents’ home, and the other was…

A sweet little home with Adele?
