Chapter 943: I’m Doing This for You

Chapter 943: I’m Doing This for You

On a dark and windy night, Lin Nuo lay in bed, deep in thought. Every time he closed his eyes, the images of his previous illusions flooded back, refusing to fade away.

At this moment, someone came over regarding this matter.

I have to say, this issue definitely stirred something within him.

It was about his view on Su Kexin and himself.

He shook his head, trying to clear his thoughts.

Kindness will ultimately lead to pain.

Lin Nuo sat up; since he couldn’t sleep, he decided to go out.

Previously, Luo Yi had visited him, which he turned down—not even politely, but very directly.

This Luo Yi, coming over late at night, must be looking to “discuss” something with him.

This woman had strong desires, and being a first-timer who tasted sweetness made her even more intense.

Just think of Ruo’er, Qin Shili, and Liu Shuqin.

He couldn’t take it anymore after a few encounters in one day.

Unable to sleep, he decided to stroll outside.

Lin Nuo pushed open the room door, and outside was the courtyard with several lush trees.

With the Dong Wei gone and the Demon Practitioners dispersed, the capital was surprisingly quiet tonight, unlike the usual chaos.

Lin Nuo sat under a tree, the moonlight filtering through the leaves, illuminating his face.

The moonlight tonight reminded him of the time he spent alone in the wilderness. Back then, he had kindled a fire, feasting on roasted meat, uncertain of what tomorrow would bring, living one day at a time.

He felt like a lonely man reminiscing about the vigorous times of yore, a history of hard struggles.

Did Su Kexin have such a tough journey? No, she had a smooth path all along, while the villain preached hard work.

At this moment, he could really use a pot of wine to drown his sorrows.

Tap, tap, tap…

Lin Nuo heard the sound of high heels approaching, and he recognized who it was just by the sound.

“I thought you were resting.”

A cold voice sounded, and Lin Nuo turned to look.

“Nope, and neither are you,” Lin Nuo quipped.

“Do you know why I’m not resting?”

“Why?”

“Because I’m concerned about your affair with Su Kexin. Something must have happened between you two.”

“Is it that important?”

A sneer curled on Lin Nuo’s lips.

“It’s very important. Otherwise, why would I be unable to sleep?”

Qin Shili walked towards Lin Nuo, and he didn’t run away but sat still watching her approach.

“Have you and her reached that level already?”

“Not at all. Besides, even if we did, how do you think she would react?”

Lin Nuo replied. Based on his numerous experiences, everyone he had been with was usually glowing with joy. But Su Kexin looked troubled, which was clearly not the case.

“Really?”

“Believe it or not.”

“Okay, I believe you.”

Qin Shili adjusted her skirt, sitting beside Lin Nuo, exuding a faint fragrance.

These girls all had a sweet scent, and Lin Nuo had grown accustomed to it.

“So, can you tell me why you can’t sleep?”

“Sorry, I can’t.”

Lin Nuo looked up at the full moon and calmly said that. It was hard for Qin Shili, as if there were a barrier between them, separating one from the other.

“Alright. But I think this matter should be significant for you. After all, you’re quite different tonight; you have something on your mind.”

“Indeed. But it’s nothing. I can handle it myself. I’ve always been like this.”

Lin Nuo delivered another cold sentence, making Qin Shili feel even more distant. Clearly, they were sitting so close, but why did they feel so far apart?

“Can I go to your room tonight?”

“Forget it, just head back to yours. It’s enough for today. You have to let me rest, right?”

Lin Nuo grumbled. Even a hardworking ox needs to rest.

“I’m not planning to do anything with you. Just want to share the bed.”

“You won’t let me rest, I’m sure of it.”

Lin Nuo had enough experience; sleeping beside someone and doing nothing else? He didn’t buy it.

After all, someone as mysterious as Qin Shili, the Ice Beauty, had countless admirers wanting to claim her. But right now, Lin Nuo didn’t share that desire.

She was a ferocious beast that could drag him into an irreversible abyss.

“I just remembered something,” Lin Nuo said.

“What is it?”

“I remembered that when I was chasing after you, I was quite pathetic.”

“Really? Wasn’t that a facade you put on? A false impression; you were never that naive young master.”

“Actually, that’s how it was.”

“I don’t believe someone can change that much. Clearly, you dealt a blow to me. Now that you’ve made it, I am indeed hit. Aren’t you proud? I failed to recognize your good intentions and ended up seeking you out?”

“Not at all.”

Lin Nuo chuckled coldly.

“It’s normal that you wouldn’t accept me; it simply isn’t worth accepting.”

“If that’s your image, then it really isn’t worth it. But precisely because of that strong contrast you later created, you managed to hit me.”

“I never intended to hit you. To be honest, your dependence on me is something I never expected. I never thought I would make you feel this way.”

Lin Nuo responded. Back then, he couldn’t win her heart, and yet she ended up coming to him—that was unexpected.

So being a villain is good?

It seems that once he became a villain, the dreams he had back then did come true.

He just wanted to be the main character with a harem, reaching the pinnacle of life.

Now he indeed was surrounded by beautiful girls, each more stunning than the last, including the main character, Su Kexin.

It seemed like he had it all, the fame and fortune he once longed for.

But what of it?

Every time life gave him hope, it dealt him heavy blows in return.

Lost in thought, Lin Nuo felt Qin Shili move closer and give him a cool kiss.

“Hm? Why so suddenly?”

“Is there a problem? We’re sharing a bed; what’s the issue with this little thing?”

“Forget it.”

Lin Nuo sighed, wrapping an arm around her.

“Since neither of us can sleep, let’s talk. You’re not fully possessed; you can completely eliminate the Demon Soul Power within you. I know your thoughts; you just want to understand the dark path to eradicate it. But let me tell you, you think you and I are on the same path. However, in the end, you might find we are not.”

“Not on the same path? Then I choose your path.”

“Choose? Are you going to be possessed? Become a scourge to the world? You can’t; just return to your Xuanyun Sect.”

“Can’t? Liu Shuqin can; why can’t I? Are you looking down on me, Lin Nuo?”

Qin Shili was displeased.

“Come on, Lin Nuo. You tasted sweetness from Liu Shuqin and now use all kinds of excuses to distance yourself from me, right? You’ve tainted my body, and now you’re being so heartless.”

“No excuses here.”

“So you’re just saying you want to ditch me?”

“…That’s not true. Anyway, you can say whatever you want now. As for Liu Shuqin, she won’t turn into a scourge; she’s ultimately a righteous person. Her thoughts are just like yours, but she’s immersed in the dark path, trying to expel it.”

“Not the same! I’m doing this for you!”

Qin Shili’s tone was resolute.
