Chapter 183 - 184: The Miaojiang Youth
Though Su Nian hadn’t spelled it out, when they connected it to what she’d said before about eating something strange, the viewers’ imaginations instantly ran wild.
[Could it be that this girl ate that bug?]
[Ew... I bet she ate some kind of animal and got a parasite.]
[There’s no way parasites can explain this. This is just terrifyingly bizarre.]
Hearing this, the girl’s expression was a bit indignant, but she didn’t say a word.
"Tell me. What exactly happened?"
...
The girl turned her head away and remained silent, hoping to get away with not responding. But her silence only made Su Nian scoff.
"Do you really think this will be fine, that it’ll all be over? How stupid. If you don’t want to talk, fine. I’m ending the stream."
Su Nian never liked to coddle people, and she especially looked down on a girl so foolish and utterly lacking in reverence.
If she hadn’t taken an interest in this bug, she wouldn’t have bothered to teach the girl that method in the first place.
Su Nian’s words didn’t sound like she was joking. Her own life was on the line.
The girl quickly started talking.
Her face was a little pale, and her words came out soft and weak. "Three months ago, I went to Guizhou province. I heard there was a very powerful Gu there that could control people’s minds. I’d been pursuing the campus heartthrob for a long time, but he kept turning me down. I felt like I’d lost face, so I wanted to go check it out."
[Wanted to check it out? You make it sound so innocent.]
[Yep. Just from those few sentences, I already know you’re not innocent.]
[I think I get it now. So basically, you’re the villain in this story!]
The girl didn’t know what the live comments were saying about her. She lowered her eyes and continued to speak.
"But when I got there, the Miao Village’s Great Witch Doctor wasn’t in. There was just this one young man who still knew the craft. I thought he was handsome, so I flirted with him a little. I never thought he’d get so dramatic and insist that we had to be together."
As she said this, the girl seemed a bit embarrassed, but also a little smug.
Su Nian’s gaze, however, grew even colder. She could tell this girl was just a rich kid who, flush with her family’s money, played hard and fast.
But she had no sense of fear or respect, and went and provoked someone she shouldn’t have.
"And then what? You slept with him?"
Su Nian’s tone was still cold.
"Mm..."
"But what century are we in? Isn’t sleeping together normal? I just thought he was handsome and capable. You know, the whole young man from Miaojiang type... it’s really attractive, okay!"
[Why do I feel like she’s suddenly gotten so cringey?]
[Spoken like a true villain!]
[How is this any different from soliciting?]
"Anyway, we were both willing. He was willing, too. We’re all adults, so it’s normal for things to happen, right!"
"Besides, isn’t it his fault I’m like this now? He even talked about using some Couple Gu with me. On what grounds? I’m not stupid. I was just having some fun, and he wanted to tie me down!"
Perhaps freed from the pain in her back, the girl’s face was now full of arrogance and recklessness, and her words were unbelievably self-righteous.
Su Nian said, "So, you tricked him out of his Love Thought Gu?"
"Well, he gave it to me willingly..."
As if Su Nian had finally hit on the thing she felt guilty about, she nodded a little awkwardly.
"Who told him to be so stupid? I’m so rich and pretty, how could I possibly be interested in him!"
"Forget it. Master, let’s not talk about him. Can you help me now? See if there will be any lasting effects, or check for me and see if that psycho is going to come after me!"
"When I left, he threatened me. He said that I would die if I left the Miao Village. Three months have passed, and aren’t I perfectly fine?"
But then she heard Su Nian say, "Perfectly fine?"
"Heh... You should be glad you ran into a love-struck fool. He used his own lifespan to offset the Gu’s poison for you. Now he’s about to die, and you won’t be living for much longer either."
"You two are a real piece of work. Like two toads at a nightclub, each trying to out-jump the other."
