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

Chapter 221

Tang Linlang emerged from the bathroom, her hair still damp with steam. She was wrapped in a towel and saw Adele in the living room, also in a towel, already engrossed in a video game. Looking at Adele’s focused and beautiful expression, Tang Linlang couldn’t help but smile.

Adele had noticed Tang Linlang, but seeing her smile reminded her of what had just happened between them, and her own disheveled appearance… so she deliberately acted like a spoiled child, ignoring Tang Linlang and focusing on the large TV screen, trying to defeat the boss on her own.

But she failed in the end.

After all, it was a two-player game.

Just as Tang Linlang sat down beside her, Adele blinked and tossed the other controller to her.

“Play with me.”

She said softly, as if certain that Tang Linlang wouldn’t refuse.

And Tang Linlang really wouldn’t refuse.

Who would refuse their soul’s master?

Although this might sound strange, Tang Linlang thought it was romantic to sell her soul to love, which was why she thought this way.

“I’m not very good at this,” she said, “Don’t mind if I hold you back…”

Adele snorted and said tsundere-ly,

“You think I’m any good at this?”

“You think too highly of me!”

Somehow, Adele could say things like “I’m also bad at this” with a straight face.

It made Tang Linlang chuckle.

But she actually understood that Adele was comforting her.

Just as Tang Linlang was also hinting at something.

If Tang Linlang removed the Gu Realm from her body, it meant that her power would fall to its lowest point, and she wouldn’t have any special abilities.

After all, the Gu Realm only provided a portion of the enhancement, what was more important were the various effects of the strange and diverse Gu worms living within the Gu Realm.

There were Gu worms that could break magic, Gu worms that craved blood, Gu worms that could induce dreams, Gu worms that could silently control people’s minds… and even Gu worms that could make people fall in love with her.

If Tang Linlang was a lovelorn loser, perhaps the last kind of Gu worm would be of great significance to her.

But if she really used it, it meant that this love would become completely fake.

Also, fortunately, reality and fate favored her.

The person she liked…

Happened to like her too.

So her previous desire to become stronger became less important.

Tang Linlang, while using the controller to manipulate the game character on the TV screen, supporting the unskilled and reckless Adele, thought that maybe she could ask her father and try to find the method her ancestors used to remove and seal the Gu Realm.

That way, Adele wouldn’t have to worry about her all the time.

“Heal, heal!”

“Oh, oh.”

“There’s a monster attacking you next to you, focus, Linlang!”

“I-I will!”

Hearing this, Tang Linlang immediately sat up straight. Her towel loosened a little, revealing the white skin of her side, but she didn’t seem to care.

This made Adele hold her breath, her nose feeling a little warm as if she was about to have a nosebleed.

The girl thought to herself,

There’s no need to be so serious…

It made her almost unable to concentrate.

If they did it again, she would have to take a shower, which was troublesome…

Then why not let Tang Linlang clean her up?

Ahem, what was she thinking!?

Focus on the game, focus on the game!

Adele tried her best to keep her eyes away from Tang Linlang’s body and focused on the TV screen.

They were playing a roguelike game on the computer, but playing it on the large TV screen had a better effect.

The game was about entering small levels one after another, then reaching the boss level. In this process, they would constantly obtain treasure chests, get equipment upgrades, strengthen their attributes, and then, after defeating a few mini-bosses, arrive at the boss room. Defeating the big boss meant victory.

This was a characteristic of most roguelike games, and Adele personally loved playing this type of game.

Because each game would have a different map and a new boss, it was suitable for replaying.

But for Adele and Tang Linlang today, playing this one round was enough to relax.

Playing any further would probably become a burden.

They failed the boss level once at first, but after summarizing their experience and starting a new game, they decisively won!

Adele cheered, holding her controller.

Tang Linlang smiled at her, her eyes full of affection.

But she probably also understood that after this game was over, it would be time to part ways.

Tang Linlang wanted to be a sensible girlfriend, not competing for attention or burdening Adele.

So she hesitated for a moment and decided to take the initiative to bring it up.

“It’s getting late, Adele, shouldn’t you…”

She paused, unable to say the rest of her sentence.

Because Adele suddenly moved closer, and Tang Linlang’s entire field of vision was filled with Adele.

Especially the girl’s pitiful and charming expression.

It made one’s heart soften.

“You find me annoying, don’t you?”

“You don’t like playing games with me, do you!?”

“N-no!”

“Wuwuwu, you’re abandoning me after I just gave you my first time…”

“I understand, I’m the kind of woman you easily get tired of…”

Adele suddenly started feeling sorry for herself.

This made Tang Linlang panic and become flustered.

“H-how could that be, Adele, I… you… I… to you…!”

Fortunately, Adele stopped playing and laughed.

Tang Linlang then realized that she had been teased by the playful Adele.

But even so, her first reaction wasn’t anger or embarrassment, but relief.

Relief that Adele hadn’t really misunderstood.

Relief that Adele knew her feelings.

But the girl still felt a little wronged.

Just a little. Tang Linlang remained silent for a moment, treating this as a silent protest against Adele, and then she became close to Adele again.

This “silent protest” ended before Adele even realized it had begun.

“Don’t… don’t do that again next time, I’m scared,” Tang Linlang pleaded with Adele.

Noticing that the panic in the girl’s eyes hadn’t completely disappeared, Adele rested her cheek on Tang Linlang’s shoulder and comforted her,

“Okay, I understand.”

“It’s just that Linlang is too serious, so I wanted to lighten up the mood a little.”

“Ahem, I won’t do it again.”

“But haven’t you really thought about asking me to stay? Why did you give me the hint to leave?”

“I thought… Adele would rather go back to the dormitory and be with the principal’s cat, or do other things.”

“Don’t think that way anymore.”

“I just want to be with you.”

The most beautiful love words often struck the heart in the simplest way.

Tang Linlang’s heart pounded.

She was so touched that she didn’t know what to say.

On the other hand, Adele followed up with a double attack.

“I’m staying here tonight, using your pillow and blanket, you don’t mind, right?”

It meant sleeping together.

Pink steam almost rose from Tang Linlang’s head, she felt like she was floating in the sky, being completely swept away by Adele.

After a long time, she finally suppressed her excitement and replied,

“…Okay.”
