Love from the Male Protagonist's Harem

LFTMPH Chapter 74-Wanting To Return Home Part 1

Translated by Snowfall77

Afterwards……what had happened?

Couldn’t remember.

The ayara, seeming to sense its master’s mood, fretfully spread itself out, extending towards a red door.  As if attracted, it carefully rubbed against the door.

Gu Peijiu, taken a little aback, noticed the ayara’s actions, but inexplicable words suddenly came to her.

——No matter how.

——I want to be the person you will like.  That kind of person.

Closing her eyes, Gu Peijiu felt cold sweat dripping down her forehead.

What in the hell……is she……

Meanwhile, Xia Ge had no idea what was happening out in the corridor.  Holding the teleportation stone in her hand, her whole body felt weak and her heart was pounding.  Her intention had been to use the stone to escape as soon as anything went wrong.

Still, like that red beauty in the ancestor’s tomb had said, who knew where the unreliable teleportation stone would throw Xia Ge?  In her current physical and mental condition, Xia Ge should only use the stone as an absolute last resort.

However, after waiting for a long time, the door that should’ve been kicked down remained shut, while not a sound from the corridor was to be heard.

……what was going on?

Why hadn’t the ram-masked figure barged in yet?

Putting a hand on her sickle, Xia Ge pondered briefly before deciding to get off the bed and go take a look at the situation.

Yet as soon as she lifted the bed curtains, she was hit with another heavy wave of the incense.  Brain buzzing, Xia Ge immediately felt overwhelmingly woozy.

No good!  That incense triggered bad things!

Clinging to her last thread of rationality, Xia Ge closed the bed curtains tight again, desperately trying to clear her head.  Her body was too weak and soft.  Realizing that going anywhere in her current state was looking for death, Xia Ge decisively put the teleportation stone back into her silver ring.

Xia Ge took a deep breath, although unfortunately that only made her mind more confused.

Fuck, it was hot……

At that same moment——

Outside the door, Gu Peijiu slowly loosened her fists, watching her ayara quietly patting at the door.  Seeing as the door was unlocked, the ayara managed to push it open a crack.

Another little shove, and the door noiselessly opened wide.

Step by step, Gu Peijiu walked into the room.

A strong fragrance pervaded the air, but it was of no usefulness to Gu Peijiu.  She glanced at the incense burner, while her ayara moved of its own accord, instantly smashing the incense burner with a loud ‘bang.’

Lying on the bed, Xia Ge vaguely heard the sound, yet it did nothing to clear her mind.  Completely out of her wits, the only thought in Xia Ge’s head was wanting to find something cool to lean on or rub her body against.

Gu Peijiu walked over to the ivory-inlaid bed, brows furrowed, silky black hair draped over her shoulders, and with a pale hand, slowly lifted a snow-white bed curtain.

She never could’ve imagined that the second she did so, someone heartily pulled on her wrist!  Pupils shrinking, Gu Peijiu was audaciously dragged onto the bed before she even knew what’d happened!

Bed curtains swaying, a hand wrapped in a red ribbon gripping Gu Peijiu’s wrist tightly, a girl dressed in red, along with a red veil, pressed her entire body intimately against Gu Peijiu, like a fish stranded on the shore, whispering: “Hot, hot……”

Gu Peijiu, pressed underneath the girl, felt her back hit something hard, and her breathing tightened.  In a flash, her ayara prepared to beat the other’s head in.  Yet the second the ayara was about to touch the girl, the red ribbon wrapped around the girl’s hand dramatically shot out, transforming itself into a wide silk screen.  Having sealed off the ayara’s target, the red ribbon, ‘baring its fangs and brandishing its claws,’ made threatening gestures at the ayara while simultaneously carefully protecting the girl.

For a long while Gu Peijiu simply stared at the ever so familiar red ribbon wrapped around a pale hand, finding that her thoughts were still just as disordered as they’d been out in the corridor.  Hand to her temples, Gu Peijiu urgently tried to control the chaotic images that’d once again resurfaced.

“Who are you?”

After asking the question, Gu Peijiu felt very foolish.

The red ribbon was on that hand.  Naturally, she knew who the girl was.

“I don’t know, I don’t know——”

""

Xia Ge’s brain was hopelessly muddled, her hands were careless, and her words thoughtless.  She had no idea what she was saying, she only knew that she really uncomfortable.

Getting touched in a soft place, Gu Peijiu’s eyes widened and her body slightly trembled.  She grabbed the hands that were stroking everywhere, gritting out from between clenched teeth: “……stop that.”

“I don’t feel well——”

The girl was practically sobbing: “Wuwuwu……I’m dying.”

A familiar, yet unfamiliar voice.

Familiar because the voice was lowered, unfamiliar because of the flirtatious tone.

Gu Peijiu said nothing.  Restraining the girl’s two hands with one hand, Gu Peijiu used the other free hand to remove the girl’s bright red veil.

Black hair slightly disarrayed, the girl’s brows and eyelids were like a painting, her cheeks like spring peach blossoms, and her lips were red and soft.  Delicate and charming, she truly was a matchless beauty.

Pupils shrinking, Gu Peijiu stared at the face both recognized and unknown at the same time.  Her heart was thumping and her mind was blank.

……which one of them was going to die, exactly?

Gu Peijiu was the one dying, right?

Xia Ge continued to ‘wuwuwu.’  “I’m ill.”

Gu Peijiu heard her own unsteady voice saying: “Please endure it!”

“I can’t, I can’t……”

A disobedient Xia Ge writhed her body on top of Gu Peijiu’s, turning Gu Peijiu’s brain into even more of a mess.  On one hand, Gu Peijiu was trying to deal with chaotic fragments of memory that made no sense, and on the other hand, someone who’d apparently lost their faculties.  Both problems colliding, Gu Peijiu gritted her teeth and flipped the person over.  Pressing the other’s body beneath her own, Gu Peijiu was now the one on top!

The sickle underneath the blanket digging into her back, Xia Ge started up again with her whimpering and wiggling: “Uncomfortable, uncomfortable……”

Sneering, Gu Peijiu patted Xia Ge’s pretty face: “I too was uncomfortable.”

Clearly there was a weapon hid under the blankets, making everyone who had to lay on it ‘uncomfortable.’  Though it seemed that the little asshole had thought of self-defense, Xia Wuyin obviously hadn’t counted on being drugged by the incense.
