Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 980: Chapter 735: Confession

Maybe because he just woke up, Jin’s eyes had a hint of red, and they were wet, staring straight at her, as if she was the only person left in the world.

His fingers gently touched her face, the movement careful and cautious, as if confirming he’s not dreaming.

Shen Tang placed her hand on the back of his hand, gently rubbing it, and hummed, ”It’s me, awake.”

Jin’s throat rolled fiercely, and he pulled her into his arms, his voice hoarse and low, with a clear choke, ”That’s great, Tangtang, you finally woke up, I thought...”

”Thought what?” Shen Tang found it slightly amusing, pushing against his chest with her other hand to create some distance, looking up at the man’s worried face, her tone with a bit of teasing,

”Fu, we’ve only known each other a short time, and you’re this worried about me?”

She looked down at their current position - she’s still lying on the bed, half embracing him, her tone became stranger, ”And aren’t you married? This doesn’t seem right, does it?”

Jin froze for a moment, too embarrassed to speak, the hand on her waist instantly loosening, floundering there, unsure of where to place his hands.

Shen Tang seeing him like this, wanted to laugh even more, ”How long do you plan to keep this from me? Jin?”

Jin’s Adam’s apple rolled again, knowing that this flawed disguise would eventually be uncovered, and he never intended to hide it forever.

Her soft fingers touched his face, slowly removing that mask that was lifelike, revealing the man’s original features.

Features are handsome and three-dimensional, with deep and captivating eyebrows and eyes, golden pupils that pierce the soul, a high nose bridge, lips neither too thin nor too thick, the upper lip slightly upturned, looking somewhat arrogant yet sexy, when he smiles there’s a hint of rogue-like charm, just right in each aspect.

Yet at this moment, the man’s cheekbones bear some bluish-purple scratches, and there are traces of blood at the corners of his mouth, adding a bit of wildness compared to usual.

But when he looks at her, his eyes are gentle, even with a cautious, pleasing, and uneasy feel, with a touch of heartache-inducing fragility.

Shen Tang looked at the man before her, her pupils quivering.

Although she always pretended to be calm and had long guessed it was him, when this face appeared truly before her, she couldn’t help but feel dazed.

Shen Tang murmured, ”It really is you... Why deceive me?”

Speaking, a little irritated.

He went to the length of creating a fake identity to hide from her, if not for the mishap this time, she might still be kept in the dark.

”I’m sorry, Tangtang, I was just afraid you didn’t want to see me.”

Jin’s face was full of guilt, ”The words I said back then were too harsh, driving you away. After you left, I realized what I truly wanted and fell into a slump for a long time, constantly searching for you.”

”It was hard to get news about you, I rushed over immediately, but upon actually finding you, I was scared... scared of losing you again.”

At first, he didn’t dare meet her with his real face, fearing the appearance of disgust and rejection in her eyes, hence hiding his identity.

For this, he specially went to the underground black market, paid a high price for a human skin mask, bought potions that could conceal aromas, and even had a custom-made tight suit to adjust his figure slightly.

At the beginning of their meeting, he tried to minimize contact with her, refraining from speaking when possible, allowing her to assume he was mute without explanation, fearing being recognized and then driven away.

Shen Tang seeing him being so cautious, felt indescribably complex, ”When did you start following me?”

Back when Wu Wei ambushed her, Jin’s timely appearance certainly wasn’t a coincidence.

He had surely been following her for a long time and very closely.

She hadn’t noticed at all during this journey, it seems Jin’s abilities have become much stronger than before, even her spiritual power and system couldn’t detect it.

Jin confessed honestly, ”Actually... when you were in the Divine Fox Clan’s Royal Palace, I had already found you.”

Shen Tang had actually guessed so.

No wonder during that time she always felt someone watching her from behind, but strangely couldn’t find anything, eventually thinking she was too sensitive and dismissing it.

Turns out she wasn’t wrong.

This guy’s been peeking at her all along!

Which means...
