Under the bright moonlight, within the stretches of the Jade Palace Cluster.
Before a wooden door, a young girl stood gracefully, her white dress fluttering as if she were a fairy, as cold and stunning as the moon above, beyond ordinary description.
Xu Yuan watched the scene, his eyes filled with amazement, but more so with a killing intent.
True Persons indeed appeared much more beautiful and captivating than in the game.
However, he also did not believe that her personality would be any better than it was in the game.
In the game, no matter how crazy, there were still fixed choices, and the direction of the plot could be judged.
But in reality, when they went crazy, it was completely different.
Moreover, the most crucial point was that some yandere's onset was completely uncontrollable.
Perhaps one second she was talking to you nicely, the next second, she might suddenly have an episode.
It had been mentioned before that some yandere characters in the game would kill the protagonist and use repeated reincarnations until the protagonist "naturally" fell in love with her if their sense of security was not satisfied.
And Lin Qingque was that yandere.
Because she possessed the Heart Voice cheat, which allowed her to directly hear his inner thoughts, Lin Qingque could ensure that she trained a Xu Yuan who could "genuinely" like her.
This was also the reason why she harbored such a thought.
Similarly, because of this, once he harbored any dissatisfaction towards her, she would hear it.
Therefore, compared to other yandere, her chances of having an episode were much higher.
Of course, as long as she did not have an episode, before she realized that she was not normal, she would deceive herself into thinking she was a normal person in her mind.
In this regard, she was better than others.
Although the probability of Lin Qingque having an episode was higher than others'.
But after so many restarts, Xu Yuan was also fairly confident that he could understand her psychological activities and sensitive areas, so he wasn't constantly worried and scared.
However, her being alive was ultimately a disaster.
Xu Yuan slowly raised his hand, in the center of his palm.
The moonlight illuminated the girl's exceptionally beautiful face, her lightly trembling eyelashes dreamy and crystal clear, like the distant and faint mist of rain.
"Senior brother..."
Just as his hand was about to descend, Lin Qingque, with a lost focus in her eyes as if she had seen a vision, barely squeezed a few words out of her parted red lips, "No! Don't... Don't marry her!"
Hearing this, Xu Yuan's eyes couldn't help but shift slightly.
He had almost forgotten.
Tian Liuli, who was coming here tomorrow, was also a yandere character not inferior to Lin Qingque.
If Lin Qingque did not interfere, wanting to delay the marriage without a good excuse would be disastrous for him.
Moreover, even if he really made a move, whether he could kill Lin Qingque was still questionable.
Lin Qingque was indeed the chosen one of the world, and killing her would best be done with the help of others.
Chills ran through Xu Yuan's heart as he began to reflect.
The ability of Lin Qingque's Heart Voice almost made him fear lost his advantage of familiarity with the plot, and this was not acceptable!
"Senior brother?"
Unbeknownst to him, clarity had returned to Lin Qingque's eyes, quietly looking at his hand hanging halfway above her head, curiously tilting her head.
Xu Yuan's hand naturally fell, gently rubbing her head, like a dark ink painting naturally dissolving in candlelight, his expression tender, just like when they first met.
"Junior sister, you startled me, what happened just now? Why have you just been standing here motionless since you came in?"
Watching his concerned expression, the corners of doubt in Lin Qingque's heart quietly dispersed and she shook her head, softly speaking.
"Nothing, really nothing."
Truth be told, she didn't want to hide her awakening of the Heart Voice from her senior brother either.
However, she wanted to know even more, what her senior brother's attitude towards her was.
So, senior brother, I'm sorry.
With this thought, Lin Qingque gathered her courage and, amidst the vigorous beating of her heart, focused intently on her "looking" at her senior brother in front of her.
—"Even junior sister drooling looks so cute."
"Huh?!"
Suddenly hearing such an embarrassing inner voice, Lin Qingque's face turned bright red.
Watching Lin Qingque's panicked expression like a rabbit, and her shy attempt to wipe the clear beads at the corner of her mouth.
The smile on Xu Yuan's lips grew more affable, but his eyes became colder.
It was indeed exactly like the game's plot; Lin Qingque really had awakened her ability and it seemed... by her reaction, she hadn't heard his Heart Voice.
In the game's early stages, when she first awakened the ability, Lin Qingque's Heart Voice could only be used on one person within a hundred meters. Moreover, her ability would become unstable with the ups and downs of her emotions.
So, he had deliberately repeated that sentence in his mind just now, to make her temporarily lose her "hearing".
As for how he did it?
It was simple; so-called Heart Voice was just one's thoughts, and deceiving her.
He just needed to deceive himself temporarily, and constant repetition was one way to do it.
Lin Qingque was indeed terrifying, but her cuteness was also real.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people who liked this game.
Xu Yuan had just crossed over and hadn't really experienced how terrifying Lin Qingque could be, nor had he been tormented by her. He only needed to recall the feelings he had while sitting in front of the computer screen, going crazy over a 2D character; not to mention, he now faced a living, breathing Lin Qingque.
As for Lin Qingque's external ability, it merely excelled in its stealthiness.
She had just grasped this power and was still not proficient. He simply had to watch for changes in her facial expressions to know whether she was preparing to use her power.
Of course, this so-called method of deceiving himself only worked in the early stages. In the later stages, Lin Qingque's Heart Voice not only became so strong that it could lock onto a person by ignoring their Heart Realm and distance, but it could also unearth voices deep within a person's heart that even they might not be aware of.
That was when this ability truly became terrifying.
By then, in front of Lin Qingque, no one could hide; there wouldn't be a single secret.
"Senior, Senior Brother."
Lin Qingque wiped away a thread from the corner of her mouth; she calmed herself, then glanced at him cautiously and said softly, "Actually, there's something I've always wanted to tell you."
Here it comes.
Xu Yuan felt a chill in his heart.
At the same time, he also began to recall some of Lin Qingque's suggestive pictures, preparing in advance.
Otherwise, once she uncovered the secrets hidden in his heart, that would really spell trouble.
"What is it, Junior Sister?"
Xu Yuan knew she must have been about to confess.
But he didn't stop it from happening.
Because he knew it couldn't be stopped, or rather, stopping it would make things even worse.
"Senior Brother—"
Lin Qingque took a deep breath, her charming and lovely face slightly lifted, her gaze serious and determined as she looked at him, her eyes shimmering in the clear moonlight like gems.
"I like you."
She said slowly, yet with a firm expression.
The Spirit Bird hiding under the jade tiles from the rain was startled and looked curiously, tilting its head at this scene.
"Junior Sister, you?!"
It took a few moments for Xu Yuan to react, his eyes slightly widened, the gentle smile on his face gradually fading to be replaced by an expression of extreme shock and confusion, causing him to step back several paces.
"You…"
He took a step forward, but stopped abruptly, standing still, his expression struggling.
"No, Junior Sister, I already have a Dao Companion."
Xu Yuan's eyes lowered, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head.
His voice carried confusion and bitterness, just like a child who was lost in the mountains.
When Lin Qingque heard Xu Yuan say this, rather than showing an awkward expression, her face instead lit up with joy.
Because what Senior Brother had just said was that he already had a Dao Companion.
Not that he didn't like her!
Did this not mean she still had a chance!
'Let me see, what your true feelings are, Senior Brother. Do you like me or not?'
Lin Qingque had moved beyond the initial shyness, regaining a calm state of mind.
Looking at the hesitation on her Senior Brother's face, she took a deep breath and activated the Heart Voice again.
'Junior Sister likes me? Why? But I have always treated her as my own sister.
No, why deceive yourself? If I truly regarded her as my sister, I wouldn't have had that dream last night...'
'A dream?'
Lin Qingque felt a surge of ecstasy along with a bit of confusion.
Because just now, Senior Brother's Heart Voice confirmed that her guess was indeed correct!
Senior Brother indeed had feelings for her!
The immense joy immediately filled her heart.
And Xu Yuan, who was paying close attention to the subtle changes in her facial expressions, also noticed this.
It must be said, thanks to the developers of "Yandere Fairy, Don't Kill Me!", although not a major studio, the production team had put tremendous effort into it. Every time an option was selected, the relevant female character's face would show some corresponding subtle changes in expression.
This allowed him to better grasp their states of mind and thoughts.
Of course, this was also because Lin Qingque was still not fully matured and was somewhat naive in heart, and didn't guard much against him.
Otherwise, if she was determined to hide her emotions, it would also be hard for him to discern them just from facial expressions.
'But what was that dream about?'
Curious, the innocent girl followed Xu Yuan's thoughts and continued to peer deeper.
Then, she saw those scenes, so glaringly white that they were blood-stirring!
The next moment, Lin Qingque's snow-white, delicate face turned fiery red like lava flowing deep within a volcano.
