Chapter 22: Strange Scene  

When it was Ning Shu's turn, she sat down on the chair and said, "Help treat my face."

The doctor lifted his brows as he looked at Ning Shu. He picked up a cotton swab and dipped it in rubbing alcohol as he asked, "What happened this time? Your head's still swollen yet you've already gotten injured again?"

"I know that I'm quite popular but there's still no need to abuse yourself like this. Aiy, your face is all scratched up." The doctor jabbed the cotton swab at Ning Shu's face. "How ruthless must you be to injure your own face this severely ah."

When the rubbing alcohol made contact with the open wound, Ning Shu's face contorted with pain. Yet next to her, the narcissistic doctor was still yapping nonstop.

"Shut up, you're so annoying. This was from people beating me up, it's not self-inflicted," shouted Ning Shu. It was seriously enough already.

The doctor pushed up his gla.s.ses a little, a ray of light refracting off his eyes. He didn't speak, he simply added more force to his movements.

Ning Shu immediately changed her tune and said, "I was wrong. Go more gently."

Ning Shu sighed, worn out by her experiences, as she looked at the face full of band-aids that was reflected in the mirror. There was probably a bandage on every single scratch. Ning Shu felt like she was about to be messed up by this doctor.

Was there bad blood between the original host and the school doctor?

Ning Shu couldn't very well go back to cla.s.s with a face full of band-aids so she decided to head back to her apartment. However, right after she stepped out of the school gates, she saw someone that looked like Ling Xue squeeze sneakily into an alley.

Ning Shu wanted to follow, but she recalled that Ling Xue was a cultivator. Her senses were very keen and so she would definitely be able to notice if someone was spying on her.

However, Ning Shu's curiosity kept scratching at her heart. In the end, she decided to follow after all.

She didn't dare to make a single sound. After a moment of thought, she took out two handkerchiefs and wrapped them around her feet. This way there would be less sound when the shoes made contact with the ground.

There was no need to ask how Ning Shu knew about this. She had learned it all from watching c.r.a.ppy detective movies.

Ning Shu snuck over and poked her head out to look into the alley. She saw that Ling Xue was currently talking with a man. No matter how Ning Shu strained her ears, she still couldn't hear what they were saying clearly.

Suddenly, she saw Ling Xue extend her hand and place it on that person's head. The man immediately exposed an elated expression.

Ling Xue's back was facing Ning Shu so she couldn't see her expression. All she could see was that Ling Xue's hair and garments started rising as if there was wind sweeping over her.

However, Ning Shu couldn't feel any wind. This scene was abnormally strange.

Chapter 23: An Amazing Secret

This scene was seriously strange. Ning Shu covered her mouth in order to prevent herself to making any sounds. For some reason, she had a feeling that she had discovered some huge secret.

Not only was this not within the original host's memories, it wasn't even mentioned in this world's storyline.

When Ning Shu saw that the wind around Ling Xue was dying down, she turned without hesitation and ran. From the looks of it, whatever Ling Xue was doing, she was almost about finished.

Ning Shu squeezed into a bookstore and pretended to look at the books. When she looked up, she saw Ling Xue pa.s.sing by. She wasn't sure if it was her imagination or not, but the imposing aura Ling Xue gave off seemed to have become even stronger and colder.

Ling Xue who was outside suddenly sensed a probing gaze. She stopped walking and looked around.

Ning Shu who was inside the bookstore immediately s.h.i.+fted her gaze towards the book in her hand, and didn't dare to glance at Ling Xue again. Cultivators were seriously way too unbelievable, to be able to sense even just a glance.

Ling Xue knitted her beautiful brows. The sensation of being watched had disappeared. After a slight pause, she left.

Ning Shu only dared to exhale after a while had pa.s.sed. Her back was covered with cold sweat.

It was too scary, expressed Ning Shu. How was an ordinary person supposed to deal with the OP female lead?

Ning Shu rushed back to her apartment and showered before heading to the Taekwondo place to frantically practice. However, she still couldn't suppress the unease in her heart. No matter how much she trained, she was still just an ant to the female lead.

Ning Shu was seriously stumped by this task. She had no influence, no power, no aid at all. She started reexamining the storyline to see if there was anyone who held a grudge against the male lead or the female lead.

She discovered that the boss antagonist of this world was a complete mystery. There was no boss at all. The entire story was about the female lead and male lead acting all domineering and being completely invincible. If it weren't for the limiting factors of this world, the male and female lead probably would have rushed into the cosmos.

Meanwhile, Ning Shu had no influence that she could call on. Even if she had influence, it would have been useless in the face of the male and female leads' sparkly, golden, main character halos.

"System, I hate you." In her heart, Ning Shu tilted her head back and screamed this towards the skies.

Every day, Ning Shu trained until it was almost midnight before going home. Today, however, she felt that something was off when she got home. The moment she opened the door, she heard rustling sounds coming from inside.

There was even the scent of blood.

There was someone here. Ning Shu quietly pulled out a steel pipe from behind the door. How could a woman be at ease living on her own without preparing a few safety guarantees?

Ning Shu's hair was standing on end as she listened to the sounds coming from inside. She gripped the pipe tightly.

Borrowing the weak illumination of the streetlight outside the room, she saw that there was something wiggling on the sofa. Without even thinking, she lifted the pipe and smashed it towards the sofa.

A sound like a pig was being killed immediately came from the sofa. It sounded like a man, so Ning Shu started hitting the person with the steel pipe even more relentlessly.

"Hey, I said that's enough. Keep hitting me and I'll shoot." The person spoke, repressing his anger. "Go open the lights."

When Ning Shu heard that he had a gun, she was so scared that she almost threw her pipe away. However, she recalled that the pipe was her only weapon. If she threw it away, she'd really end up a defenseless lamb that could only wait to be slaughtered.

"Open the lights." The voice sounded slightly pained.

"f.u.c.k, I told you to open the lights!"

Ning Shu heard the sound of the gun safety being pulled off and was so scared she immediately ran to the door to open the lights.

She stood at the door, not daring to enter the room. At the same time, she repressed her impulse to run. No matter how fast she ran, she couldn't run faster than a bullet.

She looked nervously towards the person on the sofa, then cried out in surprise, "Doctor!?"
