Chapter 106: I Have Something to Talk to You About

Protagonists are a species that can be called human cheat codes, especially the one in front of me named Bai Lingfeng. He was a freak among freaks.

If Bai Lingfeng were a protagonist who purely relied on the feeding of the world’s will, someone who could turn any disaster into a blessing wherever he went and reach the peak of the immortal path by relying on various powerful inheritances, Lin Huanhuan would not be so afraid of him.

According to the description in the original book, Bai Lingfeng’s life was full of hardships. His luck could not be said to be non-existent, but it was worse than that of an average person. Almost all his “investments” only appeared after he was already capable of insta-killing all the trouble at his current stage, merely serving as the icing on the cake.

He had also encountered some inheritances, but those inheritances were basically traps. Either the practitioner would be controlled by the master of the inheritance, or the inheritance would simply refuse him because his will was too strong.

Every killing technique he possessed was something he had created himself after fighting others, combining his personal situation with what he had learned.

Every step forward he took was drenched in the blood of his enemies.

The cheat code he possessed was his unparalleled comprehension and battle talent.

When Lin Huanhuan read the novel in her previous life, she felt it was very cathartic because she was projecting herself onto him, so she naturally felt no fear. But when she became the villainess and had to face Bai Lingfeng directly, she finally realized how terrifying the enemy she had to face was.

Unless the final boss camped the starter village to kill him, how could anyone beat him? ‘My cheat is not some god-tier cheat engine. Letting me deal with this kind of thing, is that not just sending me to my death?!’

‘My Super Heart Demon definitely can’t beat him, either. Otherwise, every time I want to sneak-attack him, the solution it gives would not be to run away.’

Lin Huanhuan swallowed hard, her heart filled with fear once again. ‘I actually mocked the protagonist just now. This guy is the type to hold a grudge. He wouldn’t just do it right here and kill me, would he?’

She clearly saw that Bai Lingfeng’s face had darkened considerably. He was likely already consumed by rage. Her body immediately shrank back toward the corner, searching for a bit of security.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Bai Lingfeng’s face. He had not expected Huanhuan to have already collected all the heavenly treasures. He had forgotten about her background. It was a bit awkward. Those were probably all the heavenly treasures needed for the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment…

Lin Huanhuan spoke up, her heart trembling with fear, “That… how about I give you a heavenly treasure? It could save you some effort in searching for them.”

‘If you are sensible, hurry up and accept this heavenly treasure. Just treat it as an apology for my slip of the tongue just now, and do not hold a grudge over this matter.’

Bai Lingfeng was slightly stunned, then he smiled and refused. “Thank you for your kindness, Huanhuan. You probably need them too, so there is no need.”

Hearing this, Lin Huanhuan’s face immediately froze. She screamed in her heart that she was doomed. ‘Damn it, you petty skinflint. It was just one mocking sentence. Do you have to pursue it to the end? What should I do now?’

Thoughts surged frantically in her head. One idea after another flashed by, but she could not find a perfect way to respond.

Bai Lingfeng noticed the expression on her face, and an almost impossible guess suddenly flashed through his mind. ‘Could it be? Was what Huanhuan said at the auction that day true? Does she really think I’m that kind of person?’

Clearly, when he had reviewed the situation afterward, he thought she was joking. But now it seemed it was actually true. ‘But I’m clearly not like that.’

Bai Lingfeng felt somewhat helpless and bitter. He sighed inwardly. ‘Forget it. If that is really the case, my staying will probably only make Huanhuan feel disgusted. I should leave first. I have to think of some way to improve my image.’

At this point, Bai Lingfeng stood up and said with a smile, “Since there is nothing else, I will head out first. Huanhuan, see you next time.”

“Eh?”

Under Lin Huanhuan’s shocked gaze, Bai Lingfeng turned and walked away, leaving the room.

Walking into the courtyard, Bai Lingfeng’s sharp eyes spotted Dong Yuner seemingly wanting to come in. He hurriedly hid behind the osmanthus tree and circled around several times before finally managing to avoid her.

‘I sneaked in, so I cannot be discovered. Otherwise, there probably won’t be a next time… Why does this feel like an affair? It shouldn’t be, right?’

After some wild thoughts, Bai Lingfeng quickly scaled the wall and left the place.

Inside the bedroom, Lin Huanhuan had just recovered from her shock. “What’s going on? Why did he just leave? Did that hateful Bai Lingfeng suddenly show mercy and let me off the hook?”

“Or is he planning to go back and prepare fully, and then come back to finish me off once he’s absolutely sure? That shouldn’t be the case. I really just mocked him once. Is it worth all that?”

Lin Huanhuan’s eyes flickered with uncertainty. Suddenly, a fierce light flashed. “Damn it, if things really don’t work out, I’ll just go all out against him! I’ll call everyone in the family and have them swarm him. I don’t believe we can’t kill him!”

“I hope I’m just guessing wrong. I really don’t want it to come to that.”

Lin Huanhuan lay directly on the bed and closed her eyes to think for a while. A mind-blowing thought suddenly flashed through her head. ‘Could it be… that this hateful protagonist has his eyes on me and wants to pursue me?’

‘That won’t do. I don’t like men. Although I’ve become a woman now, I still like women. I still have to change back later.’

‘But if I follow the logic that he likes me, his previous behavior can be perfectly explained. This is getting scarier and scarier. I’d rather Bai Lingfeng want to stab me with a knife instead.’

Lin Huanhuan shuddered, her body covered in goosebumps. It took quite a while before she recovered.

“Forget it, forget it. I won’t think about such scary things for now.”

Lin Huanhuan shook her head and began to deal with the first order of business. “In any case, that matter has been dragging on. I have to tell Yun’er sooner or later. I might as well do it today, right now. While I have time, I should end it early.”

“My state has been a bit strange these past two days because I’ve been thinking about this. Yun’er was probably scared and didn’t dare to ask. I should spare her from being on edge all day.”

Initially, Lin Huanhuan was not prepared. She felt she should let things simmer for a few more days and think clearly about how to say it before confessing.

But having been frightened by the hateful Bai Lingfeng just now, Lin Huanhuan suddenly understood that dragging it out was not a solution. It had to be resolved.

Thinking of this, she walked into the courtyard. Seeing Dong Yuner absentmindedly watering the flowers, she immediately called her over. “Yun’er, I have something to talk to you about. Come here quickly.”

“What is it?”

Dong Yuner put down the things in her hands. When she was halfway there, the thought of being driven away suddenly flashed through her mind, and her footsteps froze.

‘No, why is it so soon? Why does the Miss look a bit eager? Is she in such a hurry to kick me out…’

Dong Yuner stepped forward hesitantly, biting her lip as she asked softly, “Miss, calling me in such a hurry… Is there some emergency?”
