Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 89: Feng Ru (47)



Chapter 89: Feng Ru (47)

The police had actually been looking for Gu Feng for some time now. Most of them didn't know the female lead actually saved the male lead and took care of him for the last three days so when they received an anonymous message telling the man's current location and how he was with Tang Lan, a team was immediately dispatched. Their aim, to 'rescue' him. 

His police department might be thinking the case was urgent and in need of special attention since the one who kidnapped Gu Feng was someone no longer right in the head.

In Jiang Li's eyes though, this special attention was a bogus, the kind arranged by this world's fate so that people would come to that rented apartment as soon as possible to rescue the female lead. 

Jiang Li fell silent when he saw the police car that passed by the convenience store where he was staying. 

'As expected, she's like a cat with nine lives. One could just bow down to the awesomeness of the female lead's halo.' 

After a few minutes of tapping his finger on the table, he started to feel very drowsy. The excruciating pain and the drug's nasty effects Feng Ru forcibly suppressed earlier were starting to come back to him doubled. Now, every minute that passed, it was getting harder and harder to stay sober. 

'Ah... I wish I can just become a zombie again...'

'Zombies don't feel pain. They also don't have to feel and be burdened by any emotion. All they have in mind is to devour the living and turn the world into a paradise for the dead.'

All sorts of thoughts started to haunt him. Memories of Tang Lan and He Chen long before he took over also popped up in his mind like an unending slideshow. He really disliked the majority of the pictures.

Feng Ru was nowhere in sight so no one was there to distract him. He could only lean on the bench's backrest and close his eyes. The shop was like a graveyard in terms of quietness. 

Bored, he finally decided to speak with the system, "Hey, system. I'm more or less doomed to fail He Chen's request since I doubt there will be a miracle where she'll regret not latching onto me instead of hating me whenever she sees me on YouTube or TV. Am I still not allowed to go back to the void or go to the next world and have another body? I think Feng Ru's case, which is the main point of this time's transmigration game, is not that bad anymore."

'...'

System: Don't talk to me, I don't exist. I'm muted. 

As if Jiang Li knew what it was thinking, he revoked his initial command. "Just wanna say. But He Chen is so freaking damnable. While I'm okay enduring physical pain, his remnant soul and thoughts are really making me want to go to that Daoist who purified Feng Ru and request to exorcise him. Or maybe me."

The system which didn't have much time to get overwhelmed from being unmuted hurriedly shouted, 'Host, NO! I beg you! Don't do that! Please think of your real objective!' 

"Fine, how about my first question?" All this while, that was actually what he wanted to know.

The system awkwardly answered, 'Er, my apologies, but you have to stay here and fulfill the Original's wish. You also haven't completed the main mission. Host, Feng Ru might look okay to you now, but there is always a chance she will go back to her usual self once you leave this world. I forgot to tell you but if you fail, you'll be thrown to a punishment world. If possible, host, we must not fail.'

Jiang Li frowned. What does it want him to do? Be a suicide hotline operator and counsel every suicidal person in this world? He shook his head and asked, "What's a punishment world?" 

'Host, I can't disclose the specifics.' The system paused for a while. Just in case Jiang Li was thinking of something scary, it added, "But I can guarantee that it's not advisable to go there. The environment will surely be very difficult. You will also get a body several times worse than He Chen's!'

Silence reigned for some time, but it was not because Jiang Li sunk into deep contemplation. 

"He Chen!" A beautiful woman clutching her chest as she panted for breath appeared and pushed open the door to the coldly airconditioned shop. Her face was pale and the rims of her eyes were red. The girl was trembling not from the sudden chill that kissed her fair skin, but from the emotions that flooded her heart when she finally found him. 

Jiang Li wryly smiled at her. "Hello, Na Yu." He wanted to wave a hand at her but his body failed to cooperate. Truth was, he didn't even have the strength to stand up. 

Before he knew it, his manager was already in front of him, embracing him so tightly. She was doing quite a few things at the same time, crying, mumbling incomprehensible things, wetting the shoulder part of his shirt... and begging him to not suddenly disappear like that again. 

Something in him was stirred when she repeatedly said the last one. 

'It seems she really got worried.'

'But to say that to me...'

He shook his head and laughed. "Stop crying now. I'm okay." 

The girl parted from him and then inspected him. "You don't look fine. What happened to you?"

"I'll explain later. For now, help me up, and bring me anywhere but a hospital."

His manager argued with him about going to a hospital, but when he was no longer responding and was slowly freefalling to the floor, she helplessly caught him and labored her way into bringing him to a family residence owned by her family nearest from there. 

'Oh well, if he doesn't want to be brought to a hospital, I'll just bring a doctor here,' she thought.
