Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 887

Chapter 887: Chapter 693: The Missing Heart Scale (3)

The snow was falling even harder.

Xue Yansi stood by the window, his figure slim and upright, with long silver hair cascading over his shoulders like moonlight flowing past. He wore a pure white robe, and from a distance, he seemed to merge with the snowy scene, like someone stepping out of a painting.

He extended his cold, white, slender fingers to catch a snowflake.

The snowflake did not melt immediately in his palm, staying intact until the sound of the door opening, along with a cold draft, swept it away from his fingertips.

The person who came in was, of course, Shen Tang.

She gazed at the cold and aloof man before her, momentarily lost in thought, unintentionally murmuring softly, "Yin Zhou..."

Xue Yansi turned to look at her, his gaze differing from its usual coldness, tinged instead with a hint of complex emotion.

He asked, "The Yin Zhou you mentioned... who exactly is he?"

He had lived here for nearly half a month, and it wasn’t the first time he had heard this name from Shen Tang.

Occasionally, when she was lost in thought staring at him, she would bring it up softly.

If it were the usual Xue Yansi, he wouldn’t care at all.

But this time, he asked.

Shen Tang snapped out of it, clasping her hands behind her back, walked up to him briskly, leaned slightly with a smile, and said, "Of course, it’s you~ Or is there someone else besides you and me here?"

Xue Yansi turned his face slightly, his voice as cold as the ice and snow outside, making the surrounding air chillier, "...That’s not my name."

Shen Tang moved in front of him again, looking directly at him, she said frankly, "The current you indeed doesn’t have that name; the one I’m calling is the past you."

Xue Yansi was taken aback.

The past him?

Although his memories over the past two decades were fragmented and many insignificant things had been forgotten, the general outline was still there.

He had been wandering outside for years until recently when the Ghost Snake Clan brought him back. He had never met her before and didn’t know who the "Yin Zhou" she spoke of was.

"That Yin Zhou must be your partner." The man’s voice seemed even colder, "I’m not him. You probably mistook me for someone else."

Only this could explain why she approached him proactively the moment she saw him, constantly trying to help him.

Could it be... that he looks very much like her partner?

Was she seeing another person through him?

Thinking this, Xue Yansi himself didn’t realize, the air around him grew even colder, and a hint of hidden displeasure and anger surged in his heart.

If Shen Tang knew what he was thinking at this moment, she would probably sigh with regret.

Recognizing the wrong leopard was her own fault. She didn’t expect to finally find the right person, only for them to not acknowledge it!!!

Afterward, Xue Yansi said he needed to rest, coldly issuing an eviction order, making Shen Tang leave.

Since after this incident, the relationship between the two, which had slightly improved, somehow became distant again.

Shen Tang even felt that this man seemed to still be sulking!

She was utterly perplexed.

After pondering for a while, she suddenly realized, "Could it be... this guy is jealous of himself?"

A man’s heart is indeed like a needle at the bottom of the ocean!

The system said, [It seems to be true, but it’s a good sign; he has changed a lot compared to when you first met!]

[If it were the Xue Yansi when you first met, he wouldn’t have even asked this question, let alone intentionally distanced himself because of this. His current behavior clearly shows he’s feeling something.]

The system cheerfully said, [This is good news, indicating that the force hasn’t completely taken him over, and there’s still room for redemption! It seems the emotional strategies the host has employed these days have been quite effective!]

[However, this guy’s mouth is as stubborn as ever, clearly caring inside but pretending not to... Host, I think you need to be bold! Stir him up good so he can see what his heart truly desires!]

Shen Tang looked out at the intensifying snowfall, a slight smile curling on her lips, as her mood seemed bright.

"Stubborn? Let’s see if he... can remain so piercingly stubborn and angry!"

...

The night was deep, and the house was silent.
