The Birth of a Villainess

Unedited

Lin Xiaofei previously wanted to stand up and go back to her chambers. That night's events were too much even for her and the dirt and blood in her body was giving her a headache. 

Being around Qu Xing Xu, who kept on professing his affection to her since that morning till that night didn't do her any good as his words plagued her too much that even with her back on the bed, his words kept on replaying in her mind like a broken record.

Men confessing their affection to the woman they loved, Lin Xiaofei wasn't new to this. She was considered as a peerless beauty even in her previous life, so the men who tried to woo her weren't little. However, men who were genuine with their true feelings for her were not as many as she thought as the only thing they first saw and thought of was her beautiful face.

In the past, Lin Xiaofei was so sick and disgusted of these men. Yu Fangzhu wasn't one of them as she was too blinded with love that she didn't see his real intentions until it was already too late. She already boarded his boat without even knowing she would be the bait to sharks.

And Yu Fangzhu was never the kind of man who shamelessly confessed his feelings. He liked to play coy and make the women do all the work. A sickening man beyond saving and someone who never really loved anything. Lin Xiaofei thought as she tried to keep awake.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-birth-of-a-villainess_16977433905988805/into-the-forest-into-the-bed-(2)_49195670573209344 for visiting.

She felt the arms around her waist tightening and she had to look beside her to see Qu Xing Xu sleeping. She didn't know how long she stayed paralyzed on that bed with him but soon after Qu Xing Xu promised her that he wouldn't let what she feared to happen, he fell asleep. 

That was also the moment that she smelled the alcohol from his lips and clothes. It seems that he got so drunk before he arrived to save her.

Lin Xiaofei pondered what could possibly make Qu Xing Xu so vulnerable and drunk? 

Just this morning, he was as strong as a beast and didn't even flinch when she cleaned his wounds but when nighttime came, he suddenly became somewhat weird.

Sighing, Lin Xiaofei decided not to think about it for now. However, Lin Xiaofei thought that maybe she should try to learn something about him and his past later. 

With this thought, Lin Xiaofei sighed once again. She obviously didn't realize that she was unconsciously starting to be curious about Qu Xing Xu and growing comfortable with him that even with his arms around her and laying in the bed with him didn't make her feel disgusted.

Clenching her fist, Lin Xiaofei remembered that her hands were smeared with dirt and blood. Feeling irritated that she forgot to wash her body and change her clothes, she slowly tried to move his arm that was around her waist to the side.

She made sure that she was gently doing it so he wouldn't wake up but the slightest movement she did awoke Qu Xing Xu.

"Stay." He said with his eyes still closed. He was finally starting to get sober but refused to let her go.

Lin Xiaofei didn't listen and sat up on the bed, "My maids might be worried sick after you abducted me to your room. I have to go back."

"Your maids won't mind it if you stayed overnight here." Qu Xing Xu stated as if he knew what her maids were feeling. "And what is there to be worried about? We're going to be married in a few days." Qu Xing Xu honestly didn't care whether her maids fell ill with worry about their young miss for as long as he could make her stay with him tonight.

Besides, he didn't really kidnap her, right? He saved her and only made her stay where she should be. So in Qu Xing Xu's dictionary, he hadn't abducted her but only kept her safe in his room. In his bed.

If Lin Xiaofei understood Qu Xing Xu's personality, she was sure that he wouldn't have anything to worry about. His image in the public wouldn't be affected if a nasty rumor surrounded him but Lin Xiaofei still has some reservation about herself. 

Despite not caring about her already smeared with black reputation, she didn't want to inflate his ego and go along his shameless ways.

And she still has plans to make a trip to the bathing chamber and wash away the dirt and blood from her body.

"I'm not comfortable sleeping in filthy clothes and I need to wash away the dirt from the events tonight." She told him as she started to rise from the bed.

It was only until now did Qu Xing Xu notice the dark smears in her hands and clothes. He shot up from his bed and grabbed her hand so she would settle back on the bed but with the sudden pull, Lin Xiaofei fell on his arms.

Lin Xiaofei was startled and gasped at his suddenness. She put her palms on his shoulders to balance herself and keep a certain amount of distance from him.

"Qu Xing Xu, aren't you being too much tonight?" Lin Xiaofei gritted her teeth. She really wanted to bite someone's head tonight.

"Relax, I won't do anything to you." Yet. He left the last word to himself as he busied himself to look for any wound that he somehow missed because of the alcohol in his head. "What's this?" He suddenly gripped her hands, seeing the dried blood and turned to see her forearm red with scratches from the bark of the tree.

Lin Xiaofei shook her head, "It's nothing. The blood is not mine."

"But you're hurt." He traced the red scores on her inner forearms

"Mere scratches."

"Nonsense." Qu Xing Xu frowned and waved his hand before he stood up, "Let's wash your hands first and clean those before it becomes a serious problem."

"I want to return to my chamber and take a bath." Washing only her hands didn't sit well with Lin Xiaofei.

Unexpectedly, Qu Xing Xu agreed and nodded his head, "Alright. Let's go to the bathing chamber then. I want to take a warm bath too."

Lin Xiaofei: "..."
