National Destiny: Starting with a gender-swapped role as Artoria

Page 233

But isn't this Artoria's room? Is Artoria hinting at something to me?

Good heavens... So the usually stern and unsmiling Artoria actually...

Wu Yue quietly went back and peeked out, and saw Artoria's back.

"Artoria? Are you asleep?"

He asked in a low voice, while Artoria kept her mouth tightly shut, her mind wandering.

Why do you have to ask me if I'm asleep?! Just come in and close the door, okay?! Ugh! What an idiot! How could I possibly answer that I'm not asleep?!

Wu Yue hesitated for a moment, but still sighed softly, after all, he was going to see Xiao Nan.

The door being slightly ajar was probably just Artoria being careless.

"Good night~"

Wu Yue said something softly, then left the room and gently closed the door.

Artoria opened her eyes...

His tense, curled-up body instantly relaxed... He turned around, puzzled, and looked towards the door...

Stunned...

Deep inside... an emotion began to well up...

Outrage! Unparalleled rage!

Artoria suddenly sat up! She walked towards the door without even putting on her slippers!

I've entered the corridor! I turn my head left and right, searching for Wu Yue's location!

—Click—

They found one door was closed...

Artoria's pupils shrank... She couldn't believe it...

"That... isn't that Konan's room?" Artoria paused for a moment, then immediately went to Wu Yue's room to check.

Sure enough, Wu Yue wasn't in his room...

Did he go to Xiaonan's room?

Artoria's expression changed... A strange pang of sorrow surged into her heart like a tsunami, spreading throughout her body and soul...

Waking up at almost 3 a.m.... so it wasn't to find myself... but to find Xiao Nan?!

Chapter 200 Wu Yue, no need to be nervous, entrusted his body and soul to me, enjoying the feeling that the present moment brought.

Artoria slowly closed her eyes, made up her mind, then opened them and turned to walk towards Konan's room with a serious expression.

She was somewhat afraid, afraid of hearing things she didn't want to hear, and she knew that spying on her privacy was wrong. But Artoria didn't stop her advance...

And the other side.

Wu Yue gently closed the door. Xiao Nan wasn't asleep. She was wearing loose black pajamas, her hair was disheveled, and she was lying on the bed, leaning against the headboard.

A desk lamp sat on the small table next to her, and Xiao Nan quietly read a book.

Seeing Wu Yue enter, he placed the book on his lap and looked at Wu Yue with a smile.

"That's right on time."

"Ah... mmm."

For some reason, Wu Yue felt inexplicably embarrassed.

Xiao Nan patted the spot next to her and unfolded the blankets.

"Come in first, you'll catch a cold if you keep standing there."

“Hmm…Hmm…”

Wu Yue did not refuse Xiao Nan's request, but he was still a little reserved. Xiao Nan, on the other hand, smiled as she watched the beautiful blonde girl slowly walking towards her.

Wu Yue sat down in bed, just like Xiao Nan, and leaned against the headboard.

Wu Yue could feel it; he could feel Xiao Nan turning her head to look at him, and just staring at her like that…

"Didn't you say you wanted to tell me something...?"

My face flushed red without my noticing...

Xiao Nan did not answer immediately, but slowly approached Wu Yue.

"I said... could you please stop staring like that..."

"Whoo~"

"--ah--"

Wu Yue's body trembled! He instinctively covered his ears and turned to look at Xiao Nan!

Xiao Nan smiled slightly.

"Sorry, I just did it on a whim. Is everything alright?"

Wu Yue stared blankly at Xiao Nan, at the way she looked at him... and didn't answer immediately...

Sighed.

"I don't know what happened or why you did this, but could you tell me what you want to tell me first?"

"Are you in such a hurry? Want to leave here?"

"Hmm...not really..."

The two stared at each other silently, as if they were secretly competing. In the end, Wu Yue was the first to give in and looked away.

"I...I mean...can you stop looking at me like that? It's...it's weird...the way you are right now..."

Wu Yue touched his slightly flushed face and said rather awkwardly.

Seeing Wu Yue's blushing reaction, Xiao Nan confirmed her thoughts in her heart.

It seems that, just as I thought, Wu Yue is the type who becomes stronger when facing the weak and weaker when facing the strong.

Wu Yue's blonde hair fell loosely, reaching all the way to her shoulders, and in Xiao Nan's eyes, it was absolutely gorgeous.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Seeing that Xiao Nan was staring at her, Wu Yue became a little confused. She wiped her pink lips, looked down at her body, and saw that she was clearly wearing her pajamas properly, with nothing else on.

Not understanding what was going on, Wu Yue was about to ask a question.

Xiao Nan suddenly reached out and hooked Wu Yue's chin, making him look at her.

Why did you make that lip-wiping gesture in front of me?

Xiao Nan questioned him in an unusual tone.

"Huh?"

Wu Yue was momentarily stunned and was about to ask another question.

"Well……"

Outside

Artoria pressed her ear tightly against the door, straining to hear the conversation inside.

"--ah!--"

A woman's voice caught Artoria's attention, and she froze for a moment.
