Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18: Chapter 17: The Violent Man!

"I can help soothe your spiritual power, but on the other hand, I don’t do it for free. You also have to help me with something." Shen Tang added another sentence right away.

Shen Li frowned, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes, and he thought to himself that it was indeed as expected.

This female isn’t saving people out of kindness; she definitely has an agenda!

"What do you want us to help you with?" Shen Li asked with patience, curious about what else she could come up with.

Shen Tang licked her lips and felt a bit embarrassed about what she had to say next, "For example... you all hand over the points you earn from hunting contaminated species to me."

Seeing Shen Li’s guarded demeanor, Shen Tang sighed inwardly about the deeply ingrained bad reputation she had carried over, and quickly explained, "Don’t worry, I won’t gamble away your points. I just want us to get out of this godforsaken place as soon as possible."

The common currency in the shelter is hunting points, also referred to as redemption points, which are exchanged 1:1 with the Empire’s Star Coin.

It’s commonplace for beast husbands to share their accounts with their partners, but there’s no legal mandate.

Shen Li and the others severed the account binding with the original owner three months ago, leaving Shen Tang’s personal account deeply in debt.

To leave the contaminated area, she must first earn enough redemption points.

The astronomical number she needs couldn’t be earned back in eight lifetimes; she must think of a way to reclaim the small fortunes of the five beast husbands.

"Shen Tang, do you think I’ll ever trust you again?" Shen Li refused bluntly, his voice icy and without compassion, "Don’t even think about it!"

Alas!

Shen Tang understood she would definitely be rejected, but she didn’t feel too disappointed; after all, there was still plenty of time, no need to rush.

Medical vehicle.

"Uh..."

Xiao Jin woke up to a splitting headache, with fragmented memories of his time in madness and loss of control.

He believed he was certain to die this time; even if he didn’t die from a mental collapse, he would definitely be shot by the military.

As the youngest and most valiant Major General of the Night Glow Empire, he never thought it would all end like this; even he wanted to laugh at himself.

And all of this was because of that female, Shen Tang!

Xiao Jin admitted letting intense hatred and even the desire to kill brew against her, wishing he could drag her to share his burial!

But as his vision gradually cleared, he climbed off the hospital bed, looking around the room’s furnishings, smelling the thick scent of disinfectant in the air, his golden eyes filled with confusion.

Is this... Hell?

Why does it look so much like the medical workshop he remembers?

"Xiao Jin, you’re awake, huh? How’s your body feeling?" The accompanying medical officer came over to ask.

Even newly awake, Xiao Jin’s mind wasn’t too slow to respond—he wasn’t dead, he was still alive.

How is this possible?

Xiao Jin suddenly curled up, clutching his head, letting out a low growl, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead as the broken pieces of memory slowly reassembled.

He remembered.

It was that fat woman, Shen Tang, who gave him spiritual power soothing.

But wasn’t she long since deprived of her spiritual power?

Could it be, her spiritual power restored?

But even if she had some spiritual power left, why would that vicious female soothe him out of kindness?

Xiao Jin always disdained forming bonds with females, looking down from his heart on those males who hunched and grovelled for female soothing.

Xiao Jin had vowed never to become such a servile male, so even though he was long past adulthood, he never actively pursued females, ignoring the noble females who pursued him.

During spiritual turmoil episodes, he always toughened through with inhibitors.

This was the first time in his beast life to experience the spiritual soothing from a female; the taste of it... a tingling comfort more pleasurable than doing the deed.

"I... I’m genuinely apologizing! It was my fault that time!" Shen Tang could barely breathe, cursing this violent man internally.

Xiao Jin smirked, about to say something when he suddenly seemed to notice something interesting, leaned closer to her face, and twisted her chin back and forth, "...strange, where did all those disgusting pus-filled pimples on your face go?"

He suddenly realized this fat woman looked a little different than in his memory.

It felt like this face wasn’t so ugly anymore; it had slimmed down quite a bit. Previously, layers of fat piled together, resembling a chrysanthemum, but now it’s still plump, though not quite as disgusting, hinting at some body curves.

How did she become more attractive in just a few days?

"Uh, let go of me!" Being scrutinized by the man’s intensely invasive gaze, Shen Tang felt her self-esteem being insulted. She opened her mouth, biting down hard on the web of his hand.

"Damn, you crazy fat woman!" Xiao Jin let go, cursing as the pain hit him.

Shen Tang turned and ran towards the door, but in the next moment, Xiao Jin flashed to the door, blocking her path.

His face was gloomy as he closed the iron door behind her, seized her neck, and pinned her against the wall, grip so powerful it was nearly crushing her bones.

Shen Tang’s eyes widened in fear.

Wasn’t Xiao Jin supposed to be out of the dark phase? Does he still want to settle accounts in autumn?!

"Wh-What do you plan to do to me? It’s illegal to harm a female!"

"Don’t worry, your little life will still be around to see tomorrow’s sun." Xiao Jin looked at her face, disdain in his eyes, indeed a bit more pleasing than before but still ugly.

"A bit ugly, but still useful, can leave you alive for now."

Meaning, once she had no more value, he would end her life promptly!

Shen Tang was so angry that her chest heaved violently, "I am your Female Master!"

This guy dared treat her this way?!

"Female Master, huh, you think you can tame me with just that?" Xiao Jin smirked maliciously, then blinked to the vehicle’s roof.
