Chereads / I am the Reborn Villain / Chapter 18 - Reason

Chapter 18 - Reason

Lin Diao's lips opened and closed.

At the same time, a beam of white light shot out from his body again, landing on Jellal's hand.

It was so fast that no one noticed it except Jellal himself.

And Jellal also instantly transferred it into his Storage Ring.

For a moment, his expression became strange.

It seemed that Luo Xi's increasing impression of him was enough to reduce Lin Diao's Protagonist Light.

Perhaps it was because the heroine's existence was very important to the protagonist.

Lin Diao felt bad enough, but at this point it was really hard for him to argue.

The problem was that he was still just a weak man. His words had no power no matter how true they were.

In the end, he grasped the jade, giving Jellal a sharp look before turning around, stepping towards the tomb.

He did not thank Jellal as Luo Xi had requested. This naturally made Luo Xi furrow her brows.

She became awkward as she looked at Jellal, as if she wanted to apologize again.

However, before she did, Jellal said, "Your disciple is just very worried."

"Worried? Worried about what?" Luo Xi asked in confusion.

She couldn't guess anything because she didn't think there was anything to worry about unless Lin Diao continued to think that Jellal was dangerous.

"It's a matter of the heart, so you're really unconscious?" Jellal replied with a chuckle.

The increasingly confused Luo Xi tried to think but couldn't think of anything.

Jellal finally proceeded to tell her. "He wants a special relationship between him and you, not just teacher and disciple. Hence, he gets worried when he sees you with another man. He is worried that that man, who here is me, will get your heart."

Jellal's words were so clear that even those with dumb brains could understand them, not to mention Luo Xi.

Instantly, her lips parted, looking shocked and disbelieving.

"A-are you serious?" she spontaneously asked Jellal.

"I have absolute confidence in my word," Jellal replied.

Luo Xi's face showed various expressions when she heard that.

It seemed that this time she really didn't think that far ahead, unlike in Jellal's previous life.

At that time, Lin Diao and Luo Xi were almost married. They hadn't gotten married just because their lives were too busy, busy cultivating and facing enemies everywhere that there was no chance to live a domestic life.

"This is actually not strange. Special relationships between teachers and disciples happen all the time," said Jellal.

"No, no, I don't agree with that way of life." Luo Xi immediately shook her head.

"The relationship between a disciple and a teacher is like that of a parent and their child, they shouldn't build a special relationship."

Jellal could only laugh silently at her words.

It was just a moral theory, but so many people violated that theory when their hearts were out of control.

And there was no way a heroin's heart would not become unmanageable in front of the protagonist who wanted her.

Only Aurora has such uniqueness.

However, Jellal wasn't quite sure if Aurora was a heroine.

He wasn't sure because as long as Aurora was with him, there was no Protagonist Light coming out of Derrick, the protagonist who was Aurora's childhood friend.

While Jellal was silent, Luo Xi asked, "Young Noble Jellal, what do you think I need to do?"

She looked up at Jellal's face as she asked that, but suddenly her heart was beating so hard, so uncontrollably that she was startled herself.

On the other hand, Jellal calmly replied, "just tell him about it. Maybe he will obey you."

Jellal's answer unfortunately did not put Luo Xi at ease.

"I don't think I want to talk to him about this," she said.

Admittedly it made things awkward, it was only natural that Luo Xi refused.

"If you don't want to, you can use other means. Like making his lose hope of it," Jellal replied.

"You mean I need to show him that I already have a guy I like?" Apparently, Luo Xi immediately understood the meaning of Jellal's words.

"Yeah..." Jellal gave her a light nod.

Luo Xi's lips parted slightly, looking like she was thinking about what plans she needed to put together.

She thought this was the only good plan.

The problem was who was the guy she liked?

While wondering about that, she thought of something strange about Jellal, enough to make her cheeks flush a little.

She was already quite mature as a woman, but it was hard not to blush when thinking about this. Even experienced women were no different, not to mention her who had no experience at all.

However, did she like Jellal?

This question could be difficult and could be easy to answer.

If she is open-minded, she should understand that her nervousness when interacting with Jellal shows that there is a high level of interest in him.

Of course, a high interest in a man to the point of heart palpitations does not mean a woman should say that she likes the man.

Plus, what about Jellal's own opinion?

He has indeed said that she is a very beautiful woman. However, that's not an indication that he likes her.

While she was still thinking, Jellal suddenly said, "If you want to pretend, I can help you. Of course, if you also want to be serious, I might not mind."

Luo Xi, "..."
