Quick Transmigration: The Villain is Destiny, the Protagonist Takes a Backseat

"Two days. If you can't get it done, you know the consequences."

Zhao Tiansheng said that he unilaterally cut off the communication.

Ji Qiuzhe scoffed, took the earring off his ear, rubbed it in his palm, and when he let go, the hard object was gone, leaving only a small clump of ash.

He stretched his hand out of the coffin and raised it.

……

When Li Yu returned wearing a moon-white silk nightgown, he saw his queen sitting in the coffin in a daze. Her short hair, which had just been washed and dried, had a few strands sticking up playfully, making her look inexplicably adorable.

He stepped into the coffin and helped Ji Qiuzhe tuck his hair down.

Ji Qiuzhe casually wrapped his arms around Li Yu's waist and rested his head in his chest.

"Your Majesty..."

After spending half a month together, Li Yu had gotten used to his tendency to act coquettishly. He naturally touched the flesh on his face, which had become less soft and was quite elastic.

"what happened?"

"I want to go home," Ji Qiuzhe said in a muffled voice.

Li Yu paused in touching his face, narrowed his eyes, and almost couldn't control the possessiveness that was about to overflow from his heart.

"Why?"

Why go back?

Is it because she finally realized that the two of them were on completely different paths and wanted to take the opportunity to escape from his side?

Is he uncomfortable living in this dark and gloomy place?

"Because I need to go back to get some clothes and personal belongings."

We need to go back and place a protective spell on the director, as well as on the children in the orphanage. They are all innocent people, and there's no guarantee that Zhao Tiansheng, who has discovered he's been deceived, won't be implicated. We also need to find a way to protect them.

Ji Qiuzhe assured him, "Your Highness, rest assured, I will be back soon."

Li Yu was fairly satisfied with this answer, but...

"How long are you going?"

"At least two days." Li Yu's tomb is deep in the mountains, far from the world. Just getting out of these continuous mountains would take at least half a day, not to mention that the original owner's rented house was in a neighboring province, which would take more than four hours by high-speed rail.

Just going there takes almost a whole day, and a round trip takes at least two days.

Li Yu remained silent.

At least two days, which means it could be three days, four days, or even longer.

He was somewhat unhappy.

But how could he lock people in this dark tomb and prevent them from seeing the light of day again?

"I promise I'll be back as soon as possible, okay?" Ji Qiuzhe said coquettishly, holding Li Yu's hand.

"it is good……"

Li Yu dared not look directly into his princess's sincere eyes. It was not good at all. He had an uneasy feeling that something that belonged to him was about to be lost. Such a strong emotion almost overwhelmed his reason.

I really want to chain this person up and imprison him in a dungeon where only he has the key, so that no one else can see him and he belongs to him alone.

[Villain's corruption level increased by 2%, current corruption level is 97%.]

[Oh my god, host! What's going on?] 003, who was slacking off watching melodramatic short dramas, was startled.

Don't be fooled by the villain's seemingly gentle and considerate appearance; in fact, his level of corruption hasn't decreased at all in the past two weeks, and it's actually increased.

Just outrageous!

Ji Qiuzhe showed nothing, but quickly tilted her head back and kissed the man's cold profile, her voice soft: "Thank you, husband~ I'll leave tomorrow morning."

Li Yu was still immersed in the light kiss from before and couldn't come back to his senses. This wasn't the first time Ji Qiuzhe had kissed him, but it was the first time in half a month.

Unlike the initial annoyance upon waking from hibernation, this kiss was sweet, even more cloying than honey made from a hundred flowers.

He touched his face with his icy fingertips, lingering on the fleeting warmth.

After he calmed down, he found that the person who had been flirting with him was already lying upright with his hands folded over his stomach, fast asleep.

Li Yu: ...

The jade coffin was spacious enough that two large men could sleep in it without feeling crowded.

He lay down as well, but didn't close his eyes. Instead, he propped his head up with his hand and stared intently at the sleeping person beside him, just like every night for the past few days.

He is a living dead; unless his soul is weakened, he doesn't need to eat or sleep.

For the past two weeks, Li Yu has been watching Ji Qiuzhe sleep with his eyes open, from night to dawn, meticulously sketching every contour of his face and imprinting it deeply in his heart.

He did all of this very discreetly.

I watched it for a long time.

Li Yu suddenly made up his mind and silently said something...

"Ling ring ring~"

The alarm clock woke Ji Qiuzhe from his sleep.

Since tombs are not divided into day and night, it is necessary to rely on some technological products to help people accurately tell time, and alarm clocks are a good example.

Ji Qiuzhe yawned, sat up from the jade coffin, and greeted Li Yu, who was reading a book, with a "Good morning~"

"Ah."

Li Yu continued reading.

Ji Qiuzhe got up and washed himself.

Speaking of which, this tomb is quite modern, fully equipped with appliances and furniture, and even connected to the internet. If it weren't for the unresolved issues of the main characters being the seme and uke, he would be happy to live here for the rest of his life without ever leaving.

For breakfast, we had millet porridge carefully prepared by Yulou.

Of the four people in this tomb, only Ji Qiuzhe can truly be considered a complete person.

Li Yu is a zombie, while Yu Jia and Yu Lou are servants who willingly sacrificed themselves to the zombie king. Although they are still alive, they are practically dead.

The difference is that Li Yu only appears to be alive, but his bodily functions have completely stopped, while the latter can breathe on his own and needs to be fed to maintain his bodily functions.

In addition, every time the moon is full, the two of them will freeze to absorb the power of moonlight to maintain their ageless appearance, thus becoming half-corpses.

Therefore, Yulou's cooking skills are excellent.

Ji Qiuzhe sipped the soft, stewed millet porridge, then took a bite of the preserved vegetable and meat bun that Yulou had prepared at four in the morning. He felt utterly intoxicated by this life of ease, where he didn't have to lift a finger and had no work to do anything.

Li Yu was acting strangely today, his attitude towards him was rather cold.

Normally, if he ate, Li Yu would secretly watch him finish eating before stopping, but today he was reading the whole time.

How could a tattered book be as interesting as this?

Ji Qiuzhe was resentful.

After finishing breakfast and changing into the only modern clothes the original owner had ever worn, she realized just how convenient modern clothes were. Compared to wearing ancient clothes, they allowed for complete freedom of movement.

Although wearing Li Yu's silk ancient-style pajamas was quite comfortable, it was still not as neat and crisp as modern clothes.

As Ji Qiuzhe carried the original owner's tattered backpack, he couldn't help but think of Bo Yuwu. When he first met Bo Yuwu, Bo Yuwu was also carrying a similar worn-out backpack and wearing the same faded old clothes.

Now it's his turn to be down on his luck, while Li Yu is rich.

How can this not be considered a role reversal with one's wife?

Ji Qiuzhe looked at his face in the mirror, which was so healthy and radiant. Because of his possession of the body, the original owner's features had merged with his own, resulting in this face in the world looking completely different from his own, even though it was only half similar.

However, given his natural good looks, he's still handsome.

Unfortunately, Li Yu was oblivious to romance and didn't even glance at him.
