Transmigrated into a Heartthrob Novel and Went OOC Chapter 69

Chapter 69 – Keep Focused and Don’t Be Distracted

Xue Danrong helped Feng Chaozhou wipe away the bloodstains on his hands. After wiping them, he reached out to the pant leg on Feng Chaozhou’s left leg, but before he could roll it up, Feng Chaozhou quickly blocked his hand.

“Junior Brother, I was only bitten by a snake. I’ve already taken the detoxifying pill and squeezed out the venom. There’s no need to look anymore,” Feng Chaozhou hurriedly said.

The light in the cave wasn’t particularly bright, and Xue Danrong lowered his eyes. His long eyelashes resembled the grass by the lake, gently casting a shadow on the starry reflection in the water. He didn’t say anything, but slowly retracted his hand.

However, the chicken started squawking, “Little pretty boy, don’t underestimate the toxicity of the double-headed snake. When it acts up, it can be very dangerous. You should let this handsome gentleman take a look!”

Upon hearing the chicken call Xue Danrong a “handsome gentleman,” Feng Chaozhou couldn’t help but glance at Xue Danrong’s expression.

Sure enough, Xue Danrong’s face became visibly less pleasant. Perhaps protagonists of idol dramas all had a common aversion: they disliked being praised for their good looks.

In his mind, being turned into a fool was worse than being killed.

He no longer cared that Xue Danrong was still present. He directly tore off the troublesome fabric and continued to squeeze out the blood. However, he could only squeeze out a small amount. Feng Chaozhou looked around, picked up the small knife he had used to cut his leg earlier, and was about to make a larger incision on the wound. But Xue Danrong stopped him.

“You can’t cut it. The venom of the double-headed snake will further harm the wound. If the wound is enlarged, the skin and flesh in that area may rot, and the size of the affected area will increase.”

“Then… what should we do?” Feng Chaozhou started to panic. He threw the small knife aside and rummaged through his storage ring, searching for any antidote. As he was rummaging, he suddenly felt a warm sensation on his leg.

The chicken suddenly raised its wings to cover its eyes. “Tsk tsk tsk, I’m just a little chicken who can’t stand such scenes.” It chattered, then turned and ran out of the cave.

Feng Chaozhou stood dumbfounded for a while before looking at Xue Danrong, who was still helping him suck out the venom. Two years ago, Xue Danrong had done the same in a cave, sucking out snake venom for him.

And now…

Feng Chaozhou glanced at Xue Danrong, who was helping him with the detoxification, but then quickly shifted his gaze to the nearby stone wall. He didn’t dare to look at Xue Danrong. The sensation on his leg made his scalp tingle, and he had to pinch his hand to resist the urge to pull his leg back.

Time seemed to pass slowly, and finally, Xue Danrong lifted his head.

As soon as he looked up, Feng Chaozhou immediately expressed his gratitude.

“Thank you, Junior Brother.”

While expressing his thanks, he quickly retracted his leg. However, just as he pulled it back, he heard Xue Danrong’s voice.

“Wait, the wound isn’t fully treated yet.”

“Oh.” Feng Chaozhou felt even more embarrassed. He muttered in a low voice, reluctantly extending his leg again.

Xue Danrong took out a bottle the size of a wine flask from his storage ring. He untied the belt that Feng Chaozhou had used to bind his leg and poured the liquid from the bottle onto Feng Chaozhou’s wound for a while. Then, he poured it down from the knee.

The liquid that poured out of the bottle looked like water but had a fragrance to it.

The liquid flowed down Feng Chaozhou’s lower leg, and Xue Danrong’s hand covered it. His fingers touched the skin of Feng Chaozhou’s leg, wiping away the blood little by little. When he reached the area where the golden ankle bracelet was, his hand paused momentarily. Then, as if he hadn’t noticed anything, he continued to tend to Feng Chaozhou’s wound.

Towards the end of the treatment, he took out a handkerchief and wiped away the liquid from the leg, even wiping the golden ankle bracelet. As the bracelet was touched, it couldn’t help but make a jingling sound.

That sound made Feng Chaozhou feel even more awkward, and he couldn’t help but want to pull his leg back. Xue Danrong didn’t stop him and just cleaned his mouth and hands. Then, he took out a bottle of pills and handed it to Feng Chaozhou.

“Senior Brother, take this.”

Feng Chaozhou looked at the pills and asked while receiving them, “Is it an antidote?”

Xue Danrong nodded, and without further suspicion, Feng Chaozhou took out a pill and swallowed it directly. After taking the pill, he moved back and sat down. Since the fabric on his lower leg was gone, he felt too embarrassed to change his clothes in front of Xue Danrong, so he simply covered his leg with the wide sleeve of his robe.

Since Xue Danrong didn’t speak anymore, Feng Chaozhou felt the atmosphere was quite awkward. He thought for a moment and decided to find a topic to talk about before asking Xue Danrong to leave, saying that he needed to change his clothes.

“Junior Brother, how did you encounter that chicken?” 

“Chicken?” Xue Danrong paused for a moment. “Senior Brother, do you really think that was a chicken?” 

Feng Chaozhou was a bit surprised. “Wasn’t it a chicken? It even called itself a chicken.”

Xue Danrong shook his head. “No, that was a bird called a Brown Pheasant. I can understand why you mistook its species, though. This bird is not good at flying and prefers to run on the ground like a chicken.”

Feng Chaozhou recalled the image of the bird, ah, no, the Brown Pheasant, carrying him and dragging him on the ground. He couldn’t help but choke up for a moment before saying, “So that’s how it is. But how did Junior Brother encounter that… Brown Pheasant?”

“I happened to come across it,” Xue Danrong said indifferently.

Feng Chaozhou didn’t know what to say for a moment. After a pause, he whispered, “Junior Brother, could you please go out? I want to change my clothes.”

After the request, Xue Danrong stood up and went outside. As he left, Feng Chaozhou heard the Brown Pheasant outside speaking, as if it was asking about his condition. He thought for a moment and decided to set up a barrier before changing his clothes.

After changing his clothes, he released the barrier. “I’m done changing. You can come in now.”

He invited the Brown Pheasant to come in as well, but only Xue Danrong entered. Feng Chaozhou couldn’t help but look behind Xue Danrong. “Where is it?”

“It said it was a bit thirsty and went to drink water. It will be back later,” Xue Danrong said as he approached Feng Chaozhou. He sat down next to him, and when Feng Chaozhou noticed, he shifted to create more space between them. “Let’s wait for it to come back. I wonder if the two-headed snake will chase us.”

They exchanged words sporadically, with Feng Chaozhou doing most of the talking while Xue Danrong occasionally spoke a few words or nodded silently.

Seeing this, Feng Chaozhou closed his mouth. However, as he closed his mouth, Xue Danrong initiated the conversation.

“Who painted the picture on the Senior Brother’s leg?”

Feng Chaozhou pursed his lips before finally mentioning the name of Song Lianyi from the Fengyue Temple.

“Song Lianyi from the Fengyue Temple?” Xue Danrong turned his gaze towards Feng Chaozhou. “Why did he paint on the Senior Brother’s leg?”

“He… he…” Feng Chaozhou couldn’t continue after the first word. He couldn’t bring himself to say it, so he repeated the first word over and over until he felt the painting being touched.

It was Xue Danrong’s hand, removing the obstacle and directly touching the painting. His action made Feng Chaozhou immediately want to retract his leg, but Xue Danrong held onto his ankle.

Simultaneously, due to their movements, the bells on Feng Chaozhou’s ankle rang out untimely.

Unable to retract his leg, Feng Chaozhou felt extremely embarrassed, especially when he realized that Xue Danrong’s hand was moving upwards on the painting.

“Junior Brother,” he called out to him.

However, Xue Danrong did not let go. Instead, he moved his hand to Feng Chaozhou’s ankle and lifted his pant leg, using his fingers to play with the bell on the anklet, creating a tinkling sound. The autumn camellias on Feng Chaozhou’s leg had bloomed, with some petals extending down to the ankle. The scarlet flowers, paired with the golden bell, stood out against the snow-white skin.

Xue Danrong toyed with the bell while maintaining a calm tone. “If the Senior Brother doesn’t want to answer a question, he doesn’t have to. But if there’s a question you’re willing to answer, feel free to do so.” He paused for a moment. “Did Song Lianyi also give you this bell?”

Feng Chaozhou clenched his teeth. “Yes, but I was forced. I can’t wash away this painting, nor can I remove this bell.”

Saying this, he rolled up his pant leg and vigorously rubbed at the painting, but no matter how hard he rubbed, he couldn’t remove the colors from the painting. Instead, he ended up reddening his skin.

Xue Danrong grabbed Feng Chaozhou’s hand. “Senior Brother.”

Feng Chaozhou was caught by one hand while the other hand tugged at the bell, which couldn’t be removed. As a result of his actions, both hands were caught.

He struggled for a while but couldn’t free his hands. Frustrated, he kicked Xue Danrong with all his strength.

The kick was forceful, delivered with all his might.

After kicking, he froze, staring at the footprints on Xue Danrong’s clothes. He stopped struggling and allowed the other person to hold his hands.

“Why… why didn’t you dodge?” Feng Chaozhou hesitated to ask.

With Xue Danrong’s cultivation level, he couldn’t possibly fail to dodge that kick.

“I know that my Senior Brother is angry, and it’s necessary to let it out for the heart to feel relieved. If the Senior Brother isn’t satisfied yet, you can kick a few more times,” Xue Danrong said calmly.

These words completely silenced Feng Chaozhou. He slowly lowered his head and remained still.

Xue Danrong released Feng Chaozhou’s hands and focused his gaze on his leg. Feng Chaozhou had exerted too much force when pulling the bell, resulting in a bloody scratch on his ankle.

Xue Danrong first wiped away the oozing blood with a silk handkerchief and then applied a soothing ointment. Every movement was incredibly gentle.

Just as he finished applying the ointment, he heard rustling sounds from the side. When he turned his head, he saw that Feng Chaozhou had voluntarily moved closer.

Feng Chaozhou stared at Xue Danrong’s face for a long time before finally speaking with a tone of grievance. “Junior Brother, now I understand your difficulties.”

Xue Danrong remained silent, and suddenly, another hand appeared on his face.

As Feng Chaozhou caressed Xue Danrong’s face, he spoke with a pained expression. “When I was reading the story, I shouldn’t have found it exciting. My child, you should focus on cultivating well. Those scoundrels should stay far away from you. Promise your father to concentrate on cultivating your heart and not be swayed. Those people are just lusting after your body, and they’ve gone too far!”

Xue Danrong’s expression gradually changed, but he didn’t let go of Feng Chaozhou’s hand. He simply said, “Senior Brother, why am I having trouble understanding what you’re saying?”

“It’s okay if you don’t understand, but you need to remember what I’m about to say. Li Zhu, the little devil from the Abyssal Soul Gate, reads your fanfiction every day and likes to bite people. If he’s not biting ears, he’s biting hands. He’s a jerk. Li Yiyue, the head of the Abyssal Soul Gate, is also a jerk. He’s wishy-washy, and his son is already so grown up. Most importantly, he’s excessively endowed, to the point of being deadly. And then there’s Song Lianyi, a pervert. Not only is he impotent, but he also has a fetish for feet. He can get excited just by looking at someone’s feet.”

Feng Chaozhou didn’t notice any change in the atmosphere and continued speaking.

“Although Zhongli Yueshui is handsome and powerful, he… he’s too violent and enjoys hitting people. It’s bad enough that he hits hands and legs, but he also likes to spank people’s buttocks. Fortunately, you have great talent and a passion for cultivation; otherwise, he might force you to undergo marrow cleansing. If you really want to find a partner, I think Du Yunxi is not bad. He’s considerate and kind, but he might not be able to protect you. After all, there are so many men lusting after your body.”
