The Birth Of A Villainess

"Qu Xing Xu."

The soft and familiar voice lingered in his ears as though it was an illusion created recently inside his dreams. Qu Xing Xu always knew that he didn't like his name that was bestowed on him by his mother who wanted to kill him. He also hated others from calling him by that name.

However, when the woman he loves used it to call him tenderly or even with a tinge of an angry tone, he didn't know why but he felt like he was the luckiest man alive to have this name and wished that no one else was born with it.

Before falling too hard in love with Lin Xiaofei, Qu Xing Xu's reason to stray around her was not only because of his curiosity and interest towards her. When Qu Xing Xu heard his name coming from her lips, the irritation he would usually feel when others utter his name was not there.

It was like breathing fresh air from nature that was untainted and uncorrupted by the filthiness that was enveloping the world with a wrap of black haze.

And so, Qu Xing Xu became addicted to hearing her voice and kept on coming back to her just to hear her and see her.

In the end, he was the first one to fall for Lin Xiaofei and decided to pursue her.

"Let go of her." Lin Xiaofei reached her hand out to hold his wrist from the hand that was choking Wu Xuanyi.

At this time, Wu Xuanyi lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep and didn't know that the woman who stole Qu Xing Xu from her was now standing before her.

After a while, Qu Xing Xu found his voice, but didn't let go of Wu Xuanyi. "She called you bad names.... She cursed you a lot of times. She even plotted to kill you so she could take your place. And you're telling me to let her go?"

The dark aura surrounding the room was thick, but the one which enveloped his body was even heavier and thicker, making ordinary people quiver like a bowstring and pale in fear. However, Lin Xiaofei had no fear even when she faced death and naturally, she didn't fear this husband of hers, which was very unlike what she usually sees him act.

"I know..." Lin Xiaofei nodded. "But you still have to let her go."

"Why?" Qu Xing Xu tilted his head to glance at her.

Upon seeing his appearance, Lin Xiaofei could not stop her gasp from coming out of her lips.

The face of the man before her was not like what she used to see. The unscarred handsome face and wicked smile was replaced with a face with faint black webbing veins across his -still extremely handsome - face. On the other hand, his dark obsidian eyes were gone and instead, golden eyes that had a hue of red ring in his pupil were staring back at her.

It was as if Lin Xiaofei was looking at the devil.

Probably because of her gasp, Qu Xing Xu got his senses back and reacted quickly to cover her eyes.

And when she asked him what he was doing, Qu Xing Xu answered, "Don't look. It's ugly."

Ugly?

Lin Xiaofei's mouth twitched slightly.

His handsome face was webbed with faint black lines and his eyes were nothing like what people would normally see in the streets. However, Lin Xiaofei didn't think it was ugly. Not at all.

For her, the face in front of her was mesmerizing, almost spellbinding.

"I want to see you." Lin Xiaofei whispered and tried to pry the hand out of her eyes. She didn't mention his face, and only told him that she wanted to see him, and only him.

However, Qu Xing Xu didn't even budge and still covered her eyes. He was ashamed of his true form. He already knew that Lin Xiaofei somehow knew that he was not normal or a human for that matter. But he was uncertain what her reaction would be if she saw his true form without restraints.

Moreover, he was really not a human. Only half of him was human while the rest came from his other lineage.

Seeing that he had no intention of letting her see him, Lin Xiaofei became anxious since she didn't want him to return to his normal form.

So, with no other choice, she decided to play this the other way.

"Alright." She let her hand drop to her side and sighed. She stepped backward and said, "I was hoping to see you since we haven't seen each other for a long time. But it seems you don't want to see me. So, I will take my leave."

Without waiting for a reply, Lin Xiaofei turned around and walked forward. However, she didn't even take two steps away from him when she felt someone hugging her from behind, stopping her from advancing forward.

"Let go," Lin Xiaofei said. "I have someone waiting for me outside."

The man holding her in his arms paused. "Who is it? Is it Shen Mo or Prince Ziyin?" asked Qu Xing Xu.

"No. But he's quite as useful as Shen Mo."

Once her words left her lips, the surrounding place was suddenly plunged into an incredibly cold temperature as though winter had come.

But Qu Xing Xu didn't speak. And so, Lin Xiaofei continued to tease him, "Anyway, I must leave. He's waiting for me outside."

She tried to take his arm that was around her waist, but as she had already expected, it still wouldn't budge and it became tighter than earlier.

Lin Xiaofei aimlessly tried to get out of his embrace when she heard him say.

"Don't go."

It was a whisper to her ears, and Lin Xiaofei couldn't stop having reacted to it. Her body started to get hotter and her cheeks and ears turned redder as she felt something soft gradually getting harder and poking her hip even with the layers of robe between them.

"I want you to stay with me.." Finally, Qu Xing Xu buried his face to the crook of her neck, smelling her familiar flowery scent into his system.
