Chapter 125: Unreasonable

Chapter 125: Unreasonable

After silently pep-talking herself, Li Erlong returned to her room.

Glancing at the wardrobe, she heaved a heavy sigh before walking over and opening it.

As she opened the wardrobe and gazed into the pitch-black space within, Li Erlong felt a sense of trepidation.

That guy had said that if she wanted to find him, all she needed to do was open the wardrobe door and step inside.

This was her first time attempting it, and she felt a mix of absurdity and anticipation.

After much contemplation, Li Erlong stepped into the wardrobe.

……

"Tsk, you've hurt yourself again. I suspect you're deliberately trying to mooch off me." Wang Si couldn't help but smirk as he applied A Lan's specially made essential oil to Li Erlong's injuries.

Sipping her nutritional drink, Li Erlong humphed softly, too exhausted to flare up.

"You still have the nerve to accuse me of mooching? Why don't you examine your own actions?"

"A female Tyrantaurus."

Wang Si blinked and chuckled.

Li Erlong, surprisingly, didn't feel too angry at Wang Si's blunt honesty, which was far from sweet-talk.

After all, this guy was infamously honest, both with his words and his body.

So, Li Erlong didn't expect him to spout any flattering words to cheer her up.

She also knew she didn't have the charm to make him go out of his way for her.

"Slaying is my pride and joy; you should know that," Li Erlong said, wiping the corner of her mouth. It was time to get down to business, as she couldn't let this beating go unaddressed.

"I know, but your true pride and joy is Blue Tyrant Academy. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Slaying, does it?" Wang Si chuckled softly as he gently massaged Li Erlong's wounded areas.

"Don't you play dumb with me," Li Erlong said. "Just tell me, will you stop targeting our Slaying College? If once isn't enough, I'll keep coming back. As long as you leave them alone, I can be yours from now on."

Li Erlong's face was flushed, and her neck was stiff as she seriously laid out her conditions. However, her consciousness seemed a bit fuzzy.

"Hey, don't you dare cling to me," Wang Si said earnestly. "I have so many women, and if you promise to stop pestering me in the future, I might just agree."

Li Erlong turned her head, clenching her teeth as if she were brewing something.

Soon, she let out a sigh of relief.

When she realized what Wang Si had said, she glared at him.

"You still want to shirk responsibility after what you did? I will cling to you, and you'd better not try to get rid of me. Do you dare say no?" Li Erlong's expression was playful, but her eyes were dangerous.

It seemed like she would dare to fight Wang Si to the death if he dared to say no, despite her current fragile state.

"What did I do? I just happened to be passing by that day, and I happened to hear a woman sobbing. You know what that place is like—surrounded by trees. I thought someone was taking advantage of a virtuous woman in the small forest. I was just being chivalrous." Wang Si spoke righteously.

Li Erlong scoffed and furrowed her beautiful eyebrows. "So, no one was taking advantage of a virtuous woman in that kind of place that day?"

Li Erlong couldn't help but retort, fixing her eyes on Wang Si.

That day, he had dragged Yu Xiaogang into a room, intending to force himself on him. However, he discovered that the guy didn't have 'that thing'.

But what truly broke her heart was Yu Xiaogang's behavior—he had kept his eyes closed the entire time and didn't dare to look at her.

He even refused to lift a finger to help her!

In the end, he had fled when she was at her most vulnerable, leaving her alone in their empty and messy dorm.

Mention of the Soul Bone reminded Li Erlong of the days when she had called Wang Si "Master," and her anger flared.

"Stop it. The oil you applied will just wash off when I take a shower later.

Don't worry about me. You probably haven't fully released your energy yet."

Li Erlong turned her head away, gritting her teeth.

"What's the matter? Was I too gentle last time and didn't give you a big enough bruise to expose you in front of Yu Xiaogang?

Do you need him to see the bruise for it to be exciting enough for you?"

Li Erlong clenched her jaw tightly, refusing to explain herself in response to Wang Si's accusation.

Indeed, she wanted Yu Xiaogang to discover something amiss by accident. She felt that it wasn't enough for him to be disappointed in her; she wanted him to be disappointed in himself as well.

Only then could she truly let go of him.

The reason for her self-harm was that her body would uncontrollably pretend that nothing had happened whenever she faced Yu Xiaogang.

She couldn't deceive her body's sensations, nor could she deny that she still loved that guy in her heart.

So, she resorted to self-harm, hoping that Yu Xiaogang would discover her abnormal behavior through his intelligence and subsequently become disappointed in her.

Only then could she deceive herself into moving on.

"What's the point of being so infatuated? In the end, you're only hurting yourself. Is it really necessary?" Wang Si asked, exasperated.

He truly despised this kind of romantic obsession.

Despite knowing that the other party was wrong and wanting to leave, one would still unhesitatingly shelter them.

Could a one-sided devotion really sustain a relationship?

Could such a relationship even be called a relationship? It had already become warped and no longer deserved to be called love; it was merely self-delusion and self-gratification born from a twisted psychology.

Was there something she couldn't let go of? Why was she hurting herself?

Trying to hurt herself to make others feel touched was rather childish.

If the other party could hurt her without remorse, how could he possibly empathize with her or understand her grievances?

In Wang Si's opinion, instead of hurting herself to make others feel touched, it was better to hurt others and find happiness for herself.

Smack! Wang Si flipped Li Erlong over and slapped her hard.

"Since you said you want to be mine, then you should have the determination to be my woman. If you're still thinking about another man while being with me...

I think you don't take me seriously. Today, I'll teach you a lesson. As for what you asked me to promise, I'm sorry, but I'm not happy with you right now, so I won't agree!"

Li Erlong, who had been breathing a sigh of relief, couldn't help but break down again at Wang Si's words.

"No, Wang Si, are you even a man? You promised me you'd let go of Shrek, but now you're going back on your word!"

Li Erlong couldn't hold back her emotions any longer.

Wang Si revealed a particularly malicious smile as he lifted Li Erlong's chin.

"Going back on my word? Think what you want, but before accusing others, I suggest you reflect on whether you've done enough to deserve my promise."

Li Erlong was furious at Wang Si's blatant disregard for logic.

However, she soon saw his twisted logic, which was so outrageous that it defied all logic!
