Transmigrated into a Heartthrob Novel and Went OOC Chapter 27

 Chapter 27

Li Zhu, who had regained his original appearance, looked very much like a cat with round and shiny cat eyes, a small nose, and a small mouth. He climbed onto the bed and snorted heavily at Fang Chaozhou, saying, “Now, you have finally fallen into my hands. Watch how I punish you.”

After Li Zhu finished speaking, he reached out to touch his whip, but realized it wasn’t there. He remembered that he had left it on the table after his bath and forgot to bring it with him after changing his clothes.

Without the whip, Li Zhu felt somewhat unhappy.

Li Zhu couldn’t help but stare at Fang Chaozhou’s arm, momentarily stunned.

It was too fair, blindingly white.

His cat eyes blinked, and in the next moment, Li Zhu took a bite, causing Fang Chaozhou to groan in pain.

Li Zhu bit down on Fang Chaozhou’s arm while keeping his eyes fixed on him. Seeing the slight frown on his face, Li Zhu’s eyes revealed a sense of satisfaction. He left an obvious tooth mark on Fang Chaozhou’s arm, almost drawing blood, before finally letting go.

“I’m asking you, answer me properly.” Li Zhu’s mouth curled up, feeling a bit relieved after letting out some of the pent-up frustration over the past month.

Fang Chaozhou looked at the place where he was bitten, feeling a headache. He shouldn’t have gone to that bookstore in the first place and provoked this little devil.

“What do you want to ask?”

Li Zhu’s eyes rolled around for a while before he said, “How far have you gone with my father? Kisses, touching butts, or…?”

“We haven’t gone that far, I was just brought here,” Fang Chaozhou replied, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he gasped for breath. He looked at the little devil who had just taken a bite out of his arm, feeling even more of a headache.

“Liar! Trying to deceive me again!” Li Zhu cursed as he released his grip. “If my father was innocent with you, if you didn’t give him any benefits, would he go to Tian Shui Sect to bring you back?”

With that said, he forcefully held Fang Chaozhou’s chin and stared at his lips intently. “I can tell your lips are different from before. Did my father kiss you?”

“No, he didn’t, really,” Fang Chaozhou explained. “You should know that your father doesn’t like kissing.”

He thought that by saying this, Li Zhu would believe him, but to his surprise, the little devil’s eyes widened instantly. “You still say no? If there was no kiss, then how do you know my father doesn’t like kissing?”

Fang Chaozhou: …

It was written in the book.

“My father is domineering and favors women. You are full of lies, which suits you.” Li Zhu let go of Fang Chaozhou’s chin and his gaze shifted to Fang Chaozhou’s arm.

The arm, so fair it was almost glowing, now had two bite marks tightly close to each other.

When Fang Chaozhou saw his gaze, he felt uneasy and hurriedly said, “Stop biting. I haven’t taken a bath for several days.”

But upon hearing this, Li Zhu took another bite.

The third bite left three bite marks on Fang Chaozhou’s arm, neatly aligned like a family of three.

“Deceiving me again! My father is a clean person. How could he not let you bathe and just leave you on his bed?” Li Zhu squinted his cat-like eyes. “If you lie one more word to me, I’ll bite you.”

Fang Chaozhou closed his mouth and decided not to speak anymore. Most of what he said was the truth, yet he still received three bites.

From then on, regardless of Li Zhu’s chattering beside him, Fang Chaozhou pretended not to hear. Li Zhu became furious and bent down, grabbing Fang Chaozhou’s ear. “If you don’t speak, I’ll bite off your ears. They’re useless anyway if you can’t hear.”

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Chaozhou’s ear was actually bitten during this moment of hesitation.

Once Li Zhu bit his ear, he initially intended to teach Fang Chaozhou a lesson. However, after biting him, he realized that they were too close. Their noses were almost touching each other’s skin.

Li Zhu could even see the tiny hairs on Fang Chaozhou’s face clearly.

Li Zhu blinked his cat-like eyes, and the strength in his teeth slowly diminished. In a moment, he released Fang Chaozhou’s poor ear and sat up. Seeing Fang Chaozhou’s arm still exposed, he pulled the sleeve back down.

“Hey, you haven’t told me your name yet.”

After saying that and seeing Fang Chaozhou ignoring him, Li Zhu blinked again and pushed Fang Chaozhou’s shoulder with his hand. “Tell me your name, and I’ll take you away. But I also have a condition. You have to take me to Tian Shui Sect so I can see my precious Danrong.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Chaozhou’s hope was rekindled. “My name is Fang Chaozhou. Are you really going to take me away?”

“Of course it’s true. I’m not like you, every word is a lie,” Li Zhu said, pinching Fang Chaozhou’s hand with some disdain. “Are you feeling weak all over?”

“Yes, can I still walk?” Fang Chaozhou didn’t fully believe Li Zhu, after all, Li Zhu was just a little devil, and facing a big devil, he had no chance of winning. But at this moment, he had no choice but to trust him.

Li Zhu said, “Of course you can. The Abyssal Soul Gate has an underground passage that leads directly down the mountain. I escaped through the underground passage last time. Promise me first to take me into Tian Shui Sect, otherwise, I won’t take you.”

“I promise you,” Fang Chaozhou said without hesitation. After all, Li Zhu only asked to be taken into the Tian Shui Sect. Whether Li Zhu could see Xue Danrong in Tian Shui Sect would depend on his own abilities.

Seeing Fang Chaozhou nod, Li Zhu’s expression visibly brightened. He reached out and helped Fang Chaozhou sit up, and then he pressed something on the bed. Fang Chaozhou heard a heavy creaking sound.

Afterward, Fang Chaozhou was lifted up from the waist. Although Li Zhu looked young and not very tall, he had great strength. When he lifted Fang Chaozhou, he didn’t exert any effort.

He carried Fang Chaozhou off the bed, and now there was a large hole on the ground. Going down from the hole were layers of stone steps that seemed to have no end in sight.

Li Zhu went straight along the stone steps. After entering, he quickly pressed something on the wall, and the secret door closed again.

Once it closed, the dim light inside the tunnel became even dimmer. The only source of light came from night pearls on the walls, but they were placed quite far apart.

“Close your eyes and don’t try to memorize the secret passage of our Abyssal Soul Gate,” Li Zhu’s tone became much more serious.

Fang Chaozhou obediently closed his eyes, but soon he couldn’t help but open them again. “Wait, my head!”

He closed his eyes, but the tunnel was narrow and low. Fang Chaozhou couldn’t see the road ahead with his eyes closed. After walking for a while, he bumped his head against the stone wall several times, causing him to gasp in pain.

Li Zhu saw Fang Chaozhou open his eyes and immediately said fiercely, “Close your eyes quickly, or I’ll kill you!”

This secret passage leads directly from the foot of the mountain to his father’s residence. If the people from Tian Shui Sect find out, wouldn’t it be easy to kill his father? Then he would become an orphan? Although his father wasn’t great, at least he could protect him. If his father died, he would be miserable.

Fang Chaozhou didn’t want to close his eyes anymore. “If I close my eyes again, my head will be smashed. Can you take care of me, considering I’m taller?”

Li Zhu immediately retorted, “Can’t you lean your head against me? You stretched your head so straight, it serves you right to get bumped. Fang Chaozhou, if you don’t close your eyes again, I’ll really take action. I’m not joking with you. Anyway, you can’t beat me right now.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Chaozhou could only close his eyes again. He was much taller than Li Zhu, so now he had to squeeze himself as much as possible in the other’s arms, feeling quite stifled.

Why was Li Zhu considered one of the popular characters in the original work?

What are the advantages of a short stature in a dominant role?

Resting his head on Li Zhu’s shoulder, Fang Chaozhou finally avoided hitting his head again. He didn’t know how long Li Zhu had been walking, but throughout the journey, Li Zhu didn’t even let out a single heavy breath. Not only was his breathing steady, but Fang Chaozhou also heard the little devil humming a tune.

It was a tune that was out of tune, but he hummed it with gusto.

The little devil seemed very happy to be able to go to Tian Shui Sect.

Of course, how could he not be happy when he could see his beloved?

Finally, he felt Li Zhu come to a stop.

Then something slowly opened, and he heard sounds. He also felt a cool breeze blowing on his face.

“Don’t open your eyes yet, we haven’t completely gone out,” Fang Chaozhou heard Li Zhu say, so he cooperated and kept his eyes closed.

Li Zhu continued to walk forward for a while, and Fang Chaozhou finally heard him speak again.

“You can open your eyes now. We’re… Father?!”

Fang Chaozhou’s body instantly stiffened. He opened his eyes and slowly turned his head to look ahead, only to see Li Yiyue, dressed in black robes. Li Yiyue looked at them with a smile that was not quite a smile. It was only after the two of them stood there dumbfounded that he leisurely spoke.

“Where are you planning to go?”

Li Zhu couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. This time, he was brought back to the Abyssal Soul Gate by his father and received a thorough beating.

“Dad, I’ll take him home,” Li Zhu said quietly.

Li Yiyue responded with an “Oh.” “Take him home? He’s already a member of Abyssal Soul Gate now. Where else would you take him?”

Li Zhu’s cat-like eyes darted around, and suddenly, the unease in his eyes disappeared. His tone became resolute. “Dad, there’s something I haven’t told you.”

“Go ahead,” Li Yiyue replied in a relatively gentle tone.

“In fact, Chaozhou and I have been in love with each other for a long time.” Li Zhu’s words caused Fang Chaozhou to choke, but Li Zhu completely ignored Fang Chaozhou’s astonished gaze and continued, “Dad, if you lay a hand on Chaozhou, it’s like laying a hand on your own daughter-in-law. Where in the world would there be a father-in-law like you?”

Li Yiyue raised an eyebrow. “You two are in love? Since when?”

Li Zhu paused, his cat-like eyes shifting again. “It was… It was during that ghostly cultivation tournament I sneaked out to participate in. In Xiang Lian City, Chaozhou fell in love with me at first sight. Even after I clearly rejected him, he kept pestering me, undressed himself, and even insisted on being called ‘good brother.’ I couldn’t control myself after drinking, so I picked up a stick…”

The rest of the words were cut off.

Fang Chaozhou reached out and covered Li Zhu’s lips, using all his strength to keep them tightly shut. “Stop talking! Don’t say anymore!”

Li Zhu stared at Fang Chaozhou with an expression that said, “How can you not know what’s good for you?”

Li Yiyue let out a sneer. “He pestered you relentlessly, undressed himself, and even knew about your strange preference of being called ‘good brother’? Li Zhu, I won’t force you or punish you. I’ll let you make your own choice today. Fang Chaozhou or Xue Danrong, you can only choose one. Whoever you choose today, I won’t let you interfere with others in the future.”

Li Zhu fell silent, and after a long time, he broke free from Fang Chaozhou’s hand covering his lips. Step by step, he walked towards Li Yiyue, and when he stood in front of him, he smiled obediently. “Dad, I just took the stepmother out for some fresh air.”

He sent Fang Chaozhou over.

From the moment Li Yiyue asked the question, Fang Chaozhou had already guessed Li Zhu’s choice. But when he heard Li Zhu say “stepmother,” his mouth couldn’t help but twitch.

Li Yiyue couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this. He pulled the person into his embrace and jokingly said, “The children are calling you stepmother. What should you say in response?”

Fang Chaozhou held his breath. “Good child, so filial. In the future, the stepmother will give you a little brother to play with.”
