I'm being held captive by a monster

Chapter 246 This slap was for Xiaoye.

"……what?"

Lin Xing'an's hand froze in mid-air, and he looked up.

His eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment, as if he doubted that he had heard correctly.

But in my heart...

...Two people?

Through the shadows, he sensed the silhouettes of two people on the balcony.

As for stealth ability...

Mai Yuran?
A sense of understanding dawned on Lin Xing'an's mind.

At the celebration banquet last time, besides taking Xu Ye with him, he also silently memorized all the girls surrounding Qian Qiongzhi.

After returning, I also investigated them one by one through Ke Ke and Zhang Guang.

The two of them simply assumed that Lin Xing'an wanted to expand his social circle, so they were not on guard and told him directly.

Koko, in particular, even took the initiative to introduce some other people.

After all, it's not exactly a secret.

Among them, only Mai Yuran has the ability to become invisible.

The one next to her is Mai Lingbu.

and so……

The "Xu Ye" before us is probably someone who has been affected by Mai Lingbu's [Painted Skin] ability and then put on by Qian Qiongzhi...

"I said……"

Qian Qiongzhi pulled her foot out of Lin Xing'an's hand.

Although their goal today was simply to have their way with Xu Ye.

But now, seeing Lin Xing'an looking dazed and even somewhat injured, Qian Qiongzhi felt a sense of relief.

However, she did not reveal the slightest expression of her own.

His face always held Xu Ye's unique indifference, as cold as the dead of winter.

“I said, I don’t like you, and never, never.”

On the contrary, I hate you, very, very much.

She stared into Lin Xing'an's eyes and spoke slowly and deliberately.

Deep within those pupils, as black as ten thousand years of ice, lay a sense of exhilaration!
[Fake! No! That's not true!]

This isn't me! But I like it!

[Lin Xing'an! This isn't me! This isn't me...]

Xu Ye kept shouting.

The voice was already on the verge of collapse.

But no matter how hard she tried, Qian Qiongzhi seemed not to hear her and was not affected in the slightest.

"Did you hear that? I see you, and it's really... so annoying..."

"I really... can't keep up the act anymore..."

Pretending to like you is so hard...

Xu Ye frowned, his thin lips raised, and his face showed an extremely obvious look of disgust.

"..."

After staring at Xu Ye for a while, Lin Xing'an finally looked away as if he couldn't bear it any longer.

His lips trembled, and for a moment... he didn't know what to say.

I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry...

Looking at Lin Xing'an's expression, feeling helpless and forced to watch Xu Ye, he felt an unprecedented pain in his heart.

Qian Qiongzhi felt increasingly relieved!

This is simply...

It was much more fun than she had imagined!
Isn't this kind of mental anguish much more satisfying than the physical bullying she usually experiences?
Apologize, you piece of trash. Apologize properly right now.

After tonight, no matter how much you apologize, Lin Xing'an won't listen to a single word you say.

Qian Qiongzhi smiled to herself.

"...Xiaoye, did...someone threaten you to say that?"

"If so... blink."

As if he had just thought of something, Lin Xing'an looked up and stared into Xu Ye's eyes.

Meanwhile, he was silently pondering how he could gain the greatest benefit from this matter.

The current situation is most likely because Qian Qiongzhi is trying to get some amusement from me or Xu Ye because I refused to apologize to her this afternoon...

I should have thought of it earlier...

How could someone like Qian Qiongzhi, who had been mistreated by him that afternoon, possibly let him off easily?

Lin Xing'an sighed with some frustration.

We should have been keeping a closer eye on things back home a long time ago...

But what made Lin Xing'an feel even more complicated was that Xu Zhe was actually able to go to such lengths...

After Qian Qiongzhi arrived, she must have subjected Xu Ye to a great deal of verbal and physical abuse.

Xu Zhe actually managed to endure it all, even just listening to Xu Ye being turned into a painted skin by Mai Lingbu...

However, since it has already happened, and since Qian Qiongzhi took the initiative to provoke it...

Lin Xing'an thought of what Zhang Guang had said in the office.

We can make good use of her now.

This incident could have allowed her to send me away from Beicheng, allowing me to remain an observer as the epidemic unfolds.

After a brief moment of thought, Lin Xing'an had a glimmer of understanding.

"Pfft!"

Seeing Lin Xing'an's expression, Xu Ye also laughed.

"Lin Xing'an, you don't think I'll blink, do you?"

Who do you think you are? Someone worthy of my affection?

"And I was threatened... Hah, why would anyone threaten me to do something so pointless?"

"I just don't like it. Haven't I made myself clear enough?"

Xu Ye put away his smile and turned his head to say indifferently.

"Xiaoye, you..."

"Don't call me that. It makes me feel disgusted."

Xu Ye interrupted Lin Xing'an.

"Fine, Lin Xing'an, to tell you the truth, I've always been nothing more than a toy to Qian Qiongzhi, my master."

"……what?"

Lin Xing'an squinted, his breathing almost stopping.

He still looked incredulous.

It’s not time yet…

Wait a little longer, let Qian Qiongzhi perform again, and expose her when she's most interested, so that she'll be furious.

"Lin Xing'an, is there something wrong with your ears?"

“I said, I am nothing more than a toy of Qian Qiongzhi, the master of the house.”

Xu Ye, leaning forward in his wheelchair, spoke slowly and deliberately.

"At the victory celebration, I was the one playing with the master. You thought I was in pain and suffering? Actually, I was very happy."

"Being played with by my master is the happiest thing for me. You are so annoying, always meddling in other people's business."

"Fortunately, my master doesn't mind. It was my master who asked me to pretend to like you during this time."

"It's all just a task assigned to me, this toy, by my master."

Xu Ye's face was as expressionless as ever.

But what he said...

"Now I'm going to find my master. I want to play with him again. Staying with you is so boring."

"But don't be too sad. If my master orders me to come back, I will definitely come back to find you again."

"As long as I have Master Qian Qiongzhi's orders, even though it's disgusting, I can still pretend to like you."

Qian Qiongzhi admired Lin Xing'an's expression.

Influenced by the painted skin, Qian Qiongzhi could also clearly feel Xu Ye's heartache filled with despair.

This feeling sent shivers of pleasure through her entire body!
Xu Ye, how does it feel to say these words to yourself?

Xu Ye, what do you think Lin Xing'an is thinking about you right now?

What do you think you will be like in Lin Xing'an's heart from now on?
Even if I leave after tonight and return my body to you, will you still have the face to come looking for Lin Xing'an again? Hmm?

He'll feel that it's my mission for you to come to him.

He is completely disappointed in you, and he will definitely regret helping you at the victory celebration!
If he could do it all over again, he wouldn't even glance at you!
Qian Qiongzhi continued to tease Xu Ye in her heart.

He continued to absorb Xu Ye's pain.

I'm going to kill you.

Xu Ye's heart-wrenching voice echoed in Qian Qiongzhi's mind.

Having experienced so much pain and torment in the past, Xu Ye only felt utterly numb.

But now, looking at Lin Xing'an's injured appearance...

In her heart and mind, there was nothing but an inexpressible hatred.

Pfft! Hahahaha! You?

"Useless thing, are you trying to freeze me to death?" She almost burst out laughing.

This ability to easily destroy trust between two people and dominate their relationship through words...

At one point, Qian Qiongzhi felt like a god!
"Get out of the way, Lin Xing'an, I'm leaving."

She pushed her wheelchair and bumped into Lin Xing'an's leg.

"You are not Xu Ye."

"Xiaoye would never say that."

But Lin Xing'an didn't move. Instead, he raised his head and suddenly said something.

This made Xu Ye, who was standing right in front of him, pause.

[Lin Xing'an! She is Qian Qiongzhi!]

[I didn't say that!]

Xu Ye, who had almost completely despaired, had his hope rekindled!

Even though she knew Lin Xing'an couldn't possibly hear her voice.

But this is all she can do now.

"Oh, if thinking like this makes you happier, then think whatever you want."

Xu Ye stared at Lin Xing'an and said calmly.

"Get out of the way, I'm leaving."

Seeing that Lin Xing'an was still motionless, she looked up again and said.

"Snapped!"

But Lin Xing'an raised his hand and slapped Xu Ye hard across the face!

The slap was delivered with full force, causing Xu Ye to fall to the side of his wheelchair.

"..."

Xu Ye covered his face, completely bewildered.

Having grown up with a silver spoon in her mouth and always been pampered, she had never been slapped before!
"This slap was for Xiaoye."

"She would never allow you to say what she just said, in her likeness."

Lin Xing'an looked at "Xu Ye" slumped in the wheelchair and said coldly.

As the burning pain spread across his face, Xu Ye's breathing gradually became heavier!

Even though she was wearing Xu Ye's disguise, she was the one who struck Xu Ye.

But Qian Qiongzhi bore all the feelings!

"you……"

Deep within those icy blue pupils, Qian Qiongzhi's tyranny erupted like magma!

Anger, humiliation...

A mix of emotions surged up instantly!

Let Qian Qiongzhi stop pretending completely!

"Lin Xing'an, how dare you?!"

She covered her face, raised her head, and said through gritted teeth!
"Snapped!"

But what awaited her was another slap from Lin Xing'an.

This time, he showed no mercy and knocked Qian Qiongzhi's head to the side again!
Xu Ye's face instantly swelled up!

A metallic, metallic taste of blood filled his mouth.

"This time, I'm playing for myself."

“You insulted my wife and damaged our marital relationship. As a man, I cannot stand idly by.”

Lin Xing'an spoke again.

"..."

In the office of the head of the Operations Division of the Siege Department, Xu Zhe put down the bugging device in his hand.

Pick up the coat hanging behind the chair.

"Lin Xing'an has gone mad..."

A look of surprise appeared on Xu Zhe's ashen face.

He never expected that Lin Xing'an would actually dare to provoke Qian Qiongzhi again!

They even dared to make a move!
That's Qian Qiongzhi...

Lin Xing'an has really gone mad!
Xu Zhe knew about Qian Qiongzhi's visit to Lin Xing'an's house the moment she arrived.

He heard everything clearly throughout the entire process.

but……

What does it matter?

"Lin Xing'an actually fought with Qian Qiongzhi for that good-for-nothing Xu Ye?"

In the cold night wind, Xu Zhe found it increasingly unbelievable.

If Lin Xing'an's help to Xu Ye at the victory celebration banquet was due to deeper considerations...

Then now...

"Lin Xing'an... what are you thinking...?"

"And how did you figure out that it wasn't Xu Ye..."

Xu Zhe frowned and rubbed the ring as he headed towards the City of Light residential complex.

Xu Ye didn't care; it wouldn't matter if he died.

But no matter what, we absolutely cannot let Qian Qiongzhi get hurt again!

"Lin Xing'an, you fucking...you're asking for it..."

Qian Qiongzhi gritted her teeth, covered her face, and stopped pretending altogether. She used Xu Ye's body to stand up!
But then he suddenly realized that he couldn't use even a fraction of his own abilities!

Wearing Xu Ye's "Painted Skin" made her own ability level also change to Xu Ye's D level.

"Qian Qiongzhi, give Xiaoye back."

Lin Xing'an said, his eyes also filled with anger.

But Qian Qiongzhi suddenly laughed.

"That piece of trash is now on my body, and as long as I don't want to, she will always be a piece of clothing for me."

"Kneel down and beg me now, slap yourself ten times, kiss my toes, and reflect on your mistakes with the utmost respect, and I'll return this piece of trash to you."

Still furious, Qian Qiongzhi crossed her arms, stomped her foot on the ground, and stared at Lin Xing'an as she spoke.

At this moment, her demeanor and expression no longer resembled Xu Ye at all!
"You won't kneel? If you don't kneel, you'll never see that piece of trash Xu Ye again in your entire life!"

"What? You want to hit me?"

"Lin Xing'an, look at this face, it's Xu Ye's face, this body, it's Xu Ye's body!"

"You're only hurting..."

Before Qian Qiongzhi could finish speaking, Lin Xing'an raised his hand and grabbed her neck.

With a push of his arm, Lin Xing'an lifted Xu Ye's body up with one hand.

"Are you crazy?! This is Xu Ye's body! You're only hurting Xu Ye!"

A look of shock appeared in Qian Qiongzhi's eyes!
No one expected that Lin Xing'an would actually dare to kill Xu Ye's body without any mercy!

At the same time, an extreme feeling of humiliation also came over me.

She is Qian Qiongzhi!

Grandpa is the killer of the entire committee!
But at this moment, because she was wearing the "Painted Skin" and couldn't use any of her abilities, she was actually slapped twice by Lin Xing'an.

It was still being held in someone's hand!

what is this?
What the hell is this?!

"Let go!"

Qian Qiongzhi became increasingly angry the more she thought about it!
His eyes were fixed on Lin Xing'an, as if he were about to spew flames, as he struggled to speak!

But Lin Xing'an ignored her completely and even increased his strength again.

"Give Xiaoye back."

He met Qian Qiongzhi's gaze without the slightest fear.

"...Heh...you should kneel down and beg me."

"Beg me in the most humble way possible!"

"I am in charge!"

Qian Qiongzhi, whose face had already turned red, sneered.

Lin Xing'an's eyes turned cold, and he half-dragged, half-pulled Qian Qiongzhi onto the balcony.

In the freezing wind dozens of stories high, he pulled half of Qian Qiongzhi's body off the balcony!
"What do you want to do?!"

Looking at the ground, Qian Qiongzhi showed a hint of fear and panic for the first time.

Falling from this height really will kill you!

She tried to struggle, but wearing Xu Ye's disguise, her strength was simply not on the same level as Lin Xing'an's!
"Lin Xing'an, you're going to kill Xu Ye?!"

"This body of mine belongs to Xu Ye!"

Qian Qiongzhi threatened Lin Xing'an again.

But Lin Xing'an just snorted coldly.

"If Xiaoye were controlled by someone like you, she would definitely wish she were dead."

"For Saya now, death is a relief."

"Besides, I can bring you along too."
