Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 1819: Chapter 1794: Vulgar Fear (27)

Although he frequently used the excuse of being discovered by his mother as a shield, Fu Qian didn’t really think Salma was very worried about it.

In the dangerous situation just now where exposure seemed imminent, she managed to solve it with a single shout.

And indeed, she successfully sent her mother off to take a bath.

Not to mention that her mother was still busy going out for a date, even if there was another sudden inspection, Salma seemed capable of handling it completely.

Yet she still wanted to get rid of him quickly.

One could understand it as human nature; a dangerous person like him, the sooner he disappeared, the better it would be.

But logically, after drinking that glass of water, Salma should have been quite confident that he was no longer a dangerous person.

Not to mention that his unusual behavior had successfully piqued her interest.

Theoretically, Salma should be quite pleased to see the aloof Mr. Wolf finally drop his facade and succumb to her charms.

So is it possible... that tonight, it’s not just her mother who has a date, but that she had also arranged to meet someone?

This could also help understand why, when he casually remarked, ”I have a feeling someone will come looking for her tonight,” Salma’s reaction was so intense.

...

What is the ”correct” way to complete the script discovered so far?

Firstly, achieve a certain degree of exploration and access the necessary basic elements.

Secondly, when exploring the ”truth” behind these basic elements, maintain consistency across all scripts without causing irreconcilable conflicts.

From this perspective, tonight’s visit may not be enough to complete the script just by clarifying the emotional state between Wen and Salma, but confirming Salma’s transcendent nature as the Saliva Enchanting Demon and then leaving here as suggested earlier will most likely complete the transition.

But it is not enough.

Although it is uncertain if it can be used later, given this smoothly ideal plot development, attempting to explore more secrets related to this potential future victim is entirely a viable option.

Moreover, there’s an intriguing misunderstanding in which Salma firmly believes in his infatuation with her, thinking everything is under control and emotionally stable.

So in the end, Fu Qian decided to delve deeper into the theme of this script to see if there were any additional gains by staying a bit longer— and there really were.

Knock knock!

Suddenly, two knocks came from the direction of the bedroom window.

And just less than a minute before that, there were footsteps descending the stairs and the sound of the door closing, indicating Salma’s mother had officially left for her date.

...

Creak—

The window hinges seemed a bit stiff, with a frictional sound, Salma opened it very slowly.

”Why did you come so early?”

In the next moment, she lowered her voice to express dissatisfaction.

”Early? Wasn’t it you who told me I could come as soon as your mother left? I just saw her leave.”

Sure enough, there was a reason Salma hurried her mother off for a date, and the visitor was indeed not Wen.

A strange voice, with a teasing tone mixed with a touch of youthful urgency.

”She can still see you if she turns back... tonight is inconvenient, you should go back.”

Unfortunately, the next moment, Salma outright issued an order to leave.

”Ah... alright, then this is for you.”

One could hear the visitor’s boundless disappointment at that moment.

However, instead of expressing annoyance, he truly seemed to accept the arrangement.

”What is this?”

This time, it was Salma who was surprised.

”Didn’t you say you liked this? I went out of my way to buy it for you.”

The visitor explained softly, sounding as if he was already helping to close the window.

”Wait a minute—”

However, the next moment he was apparently stopped, hesitating slightly, but ultimately, Salma made up her mind.

”Come in.”

...

Is this the relentless youth?

The only issue with the wardrobe is that it’s a bit too tight, leaving no position from which the scene by the window can be directly viewed; Fu Qian could only rely on his hearing to make judgments.

One could definitely feel the youthful minds of both sides being drawn towards each other after the date for Salma’s mother was set up.

The only issue is that Wen is somewhat extraneous.

If the story didn’t include him, it might have been a beautiful memory of youth.

Including Salma’s eventual moved state, which was quite genuine, it seemed that the visitor was not simply a conquered party to her.

”How did you know I liked this?”

Soon amidst the sound of drawing curtains, Salma asked somewhat puzzled.

”I remembered you really liking it the first time I saw you.”

In an unexpected turn, the visitor was clearly quite excited and explained with a smile.

”You actually remembered... I thought back then you were dismissive of me?”

”How could I be? I actually felt a bit inferior, only realized it a couple of days ago and mustered the courage...”

Amidst a round of sweet exchanges, the two young people quickly entered into a state of mutual affection.

And within less than half a minute, it developed further into heavy breathing.

”Why did you just say something came up and you wanted me to leave, is there someone else hiding here—did you turn off the light?”

While lost in passionate embrace, the visitor suddenly seemed to recall something, joking half-seriously, but unfortunately, the situation was interrupted immediately.

...

It was indeed him; sometimes, gossip spread by men could be quite reliable indeed.

At that moment, Fu Qian withdrew his hand from the switch and sighed internally.

The script apparently increasingly emphasized the emotional theme, which didn’t interest him much, so amidst their passionate obliviousness, he already opened the wardrobe and stepped out.

And with one glance, he confirmed the identity of the person entwined with Salma—Joshua.

Speaking of which, it was the first time seeing him in a living state.

Needless to say, based on appearance alone, he indeed seemed more fitting than Wen to be a young girl’s dream lover.

And from the earlier conversation, one could hear that it was even a sweet mutual crush.

Maybe it wasn’t until Salma’s realization of her special awakened abilities that she gifted him a cup of enchanted saliva beverage, opening a path to pour their hearts out to each other.

What a paradoxical life.

Of course, Fu Qian had no intention of making any moral judgments, and theoretically speaking, with the confirmation of the relationship between Joshua and Salma, the rewards from this trip were already substantial.

Turning off the light to stay unexposed and leaving directly was clearly an excellent choice.

”Um... yes.”

Even after a brief moment of confusion, Salma was very cooperative in taking credit for switching off the lights.

But a target who died in such a bizarre manner every time, presented right in front of him like this... turning off the lights was not just beneficial for escaping.

Fu Qian bent down to pick up a jacket from the ground, quickly explored all the pockets.

This is... a photo?

And a few seconds later, this action paid off.

With an item of particular texture in hand, Fu Qian quietly opened the door, moved to the dimly lit living room illuminated by the light of stars and the moon, reviewing his spoils.

Sure enough, there were a few photos, with what appeared to be gruesome and bloody scenes, particularly eerie in the night.

But that wasn’t the point; the key was Fu Qian could tell at a glance that the photos were selfies.

And in one of them, one could even see half of Joshua’s face.
