Su Ling roared in her heart.
This jerk left her behind in a strange hotel without a word, and now she was sitting here as if it were perfectly natural.
“Logically speaking…”
Cheng Cheng glanced at Su Ling, her eyes full of curiosity.
She couldn’t hold it in any longer and pulled Su Ling into a corner.
Fortunately, Luo Qianxue just gave them a calm look and didn’t say anything.
“What is going on with you? Did you share a room with her last night?”
“Huh? I, I…”
“Sharing a room is one thing, but how did you get caught on camera?”
Cheng Cheng pulled out her smartphone and brought up a video.
In the video, Luo Qianxue was carrying an unconscious Su Ling in front of the hotel reception desk.
Su Ling’s pupils shrank, and she realized the truth immediately.
That jerk must have taken her to that Underground Room first, and then to the hotel after she passed out.
Is she crazy or what!
Su Ling remembered the strange looks from passersby along the way, and her face suddenly turned bright red.
She finally understood why those people had been looking at her like that.
Judging by the popularity of this video, it was clear that Luo Qianxue was a major public figure at the Witch Academy.
“This is going to be trouble, I wonder if there will be any fallout.”
Cheng Cheng looked irritable.
The maids at this Maid Cafe were supposed to specialize in the “romance” business.
If a maid already had a girlfriend, who would order from her?
“Can we open for business yet?”
Luo Qianxue walked over at that moment and asked in her usual indifferent tone.
Cheng Cheng plastered on a fake smile.
“Haha, right away, you can go wait over there for a bit.”
Luo Qianxue didn’t reply, just nodded, and then found a seat in the corner.
Cheng Cheng couldn’t do anything about it.
She looked at the innocent-looking Su Ling and slapped her forehead.
She only hoped the geeks wouldn’t be too picky.
“Open the doors.”
Cheng Cheng waved her hand.
Keke immediately pulled back the curtains.
Clatter!
However, a scene they completely failed to anticipate unfolded.
There was a long line of people waiting outside the door.
This was totally unexpected for Cheng Cheng and Su Ling.
Cheng Cheng, in particular, was full of confusion.
Wait, aren’t these geeks supposed to be obsessed with purity? What gives?
“Welcome, meow~”
Su Yao and Su Ling quickly got into character.
The doors opened, and a large group of people flooded in.
When these witches saw Su Ling, their faces instantly flushed red.
“U-um, are you Lady Luo Qianxue’s girlfriend?”
Asked a girl with glasses, her face turning beet red.
“Ah, I, I’m not, meow~”
Su Ling looked toward the corner.
Bizarrely, even though Luo Qianxue was sitting there sipping tea calmly, everyone around her seemed unable to see her, and they would even subconsciously walk around that area.
Is this some kind of Cognitive Concealment?
“I-I see…”
The girl with glasses actually looked a bit disappointed.
“Then can I get a hug set?”
A girl at a nearby table asked with anticipation.
They were staring at the lipstick mark on Su Ling’s neck, so excited they looked like they might faint.
“You can, meow~”
Su Ling was confused, but she couldn’t refuse a paying customer.
She gave them each a big hug.
“S-h-a! S-h-a! I can smell Lady Luo Qianxue on her!”
“Waaaah, it’s Lady Luo Qianxue’s scent, waaaah…”
“Lady Luo Qianxue!”
Su Ling and the secretly watching Cheng Cheng were completely speechless at this sight.
Cheng Cheng checked her backend system, and her vision went black.
“Manager, manager, did that maid really share a room with Lady Luo Qianxue? Then, then can I indirectly be with Lady Luo Qianxue…”
“Manager, I really want to be with Lady Luo Qianxue, waaaah, can I…”
“…”
There were hundreds of private messages, all asking if Su Ling was really Luo Qianxue’s girlfriend.
The most abstract part came next.
These were all extreme dreamers of Luo Qianxue.
With Luo Qianxue practicing the Path of Heartlessness, these dreamers originally felt their chances of getting close to her in this life were slim to none.
But now, someone appearing as a suspected girlfriend meant they had found a substitute.
In other words, they wanted to find traces of Luo Qianxue on Su Ling.
“One thousand Moni! That lipstick mark is mine!”
Suddenly, a messy-haired girl with dark circles under her eyes roared in the shop.
She actually wanted to buy the lipstick mark on Su Ling’s neck.
Not only Su Ling, but Su Yao, Cheng Cheng, and Keke were all dumbfounded.
Hey, sister?
“Huh?”
Su Ling was full of question marks.
Luo Qianxue in the corner also gave a start.
“Two thousand, I’ll pay two thousand!”
Another witch shouted.
“Two thousand five hundred!”
“Three thousand five hundred! Please, I really want Lady Luo Qianxue’s lip print…”
“Five thousand! S-h-a! Hehe, Lady Luo Qianxue, hehe!”
“…”
Su Ling was surrounded by crazy fans, feeling complete despair.
Where did all these lunatics come from!
At this moment, a small hand grabbed her wrist.
Immediately after, those wild fans felt as if they were knocked to the ground by an invisible force.
“Let’s go.”
Luo Qianxue’s voice sounded in her ear.
Then, a flash of white light occurred, and Su Ling vanished from the spot.
Cheng Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she couldn’t see Luo Qianxue, she knew it was her doing.
However, the shop was filled with wailing and howling.
“Lady Luo Qianxue! It’s Lady Luo Qianxue’s scent! I smelled it!”
One of the dog witches screamed in excitement.
“Waaah, Lady Luo Qianxue!”
“Lady Luo Qianxue, I love you, please do not go easy on me!”
“Awoo! Awoo!”
Are these even humans!
Cheng Cheng’s vision went black.
She couldn’t see a future for the witches.
The shop was full of dreamers, extreme stalkers, and fan artists.
They were blushing, some even taking out paper and pens to start drawing on the spot.
Some artists with the Truth sequence would find that as they drew, the characters in their works would begin to manifest, gradually becoming real.
The intimate pose of Luo Qianxue and Su Ling.
Cheng Cheng and Keke looked at each other, their mouths twitching.
They had only one thought.
The witches are doomed.

“Jerk! What exactly are you trying to do!”
Back in that Underground Room again.
Su Ling was pinned under Luo Qianxue, struggling constantly.
Luo Qianxue was staring at her intently, her gaze bone-chillingly cold.
Su Ling shivered.
This, this isn’t right, is it?
“Do you know? You are a sinner.”
Huh? A sinner?
Su Ling looked at Luo Qianxue, feeling more and more like this woman’s brain wasn’t functioning correctly.
“My Path of Heartlessness was broken because of you.”
The Path of Heartlessness? What is that?
“But it doesn’t matter. As long as I kill you, I can return to the Path of Heartlessness.”
Luo Qianxue muttered.
Su Ling broke into a cold sweat.
Ki-kill me?
“Don’t, don’t, don’t!”
“I won’t call you names anymore! You can do whatever you want to me! Just don’t, don’t kill me!”
For the first time, she felt the suffocating sensation of a death threat.
If she died, what would happen to Su Yao?
Miao Miao… if she died, she would never see Miao Miao again.
But a flash of red light crossed Luo Qianxue’s eyes.
She seemed like a different person now, her aura turning icy cold.
In the next moment, under Su Ling’s terrified gaze, she reached out and tightly gripped Su Ling’s slender neck.
