I am the villain in the book

Tears still lingered in the corners of her eyes, and her clothes were still somewhat disheveled.

However, Xu Sui Sui's expression was very calm, and there was no longer any of the previous embarrassment in her eyes.

From a "naive college student" who would throw tantrums and bite people, to a "mature empress" sitting upright with her knees together, her transformation was too sudden, making Wei Chang Tian a little unaccustomed.

Could it be that she was stunned by his earlier "压 (yā - pressing down/subduing)"?

"No, were you possessed by someone?"

Looking at Xu Sui Sui like he was looking at an eight-legged frog, Wei Chang Tian said with a bewildered face, "Or did your brain break down?"

"Your brain broke down!"

Xu Sui Sui couldn't help herself, and the volume of her voice instantly increased by thirty decibels: "Are you going to ask or not!"

"Asking, asking, asking."

Seeing Xu Sui Sui reveal her "true colors" so quickly, Wei Chang Tian couldn't help but curl his lips.

He didn't immediately start asking questions, but instead took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Xu Sui Sui.

"Wipe yourself."

“. . ."

Looking at the handkerchief in front of her, Xu Sui Sui was stunned for a moment, and then, for some unknown reason, blurted out:

"Who embroidered it for you?"

"Yuan'er."

Wei Chang Tian glanced at her: "What, are you jealous?"

"Just a maid, what am I jealous of?"

Xu Sui Sui muttered in a low voice, intending to express "Don't be so conceited", but after she finished speaking, she realized that something seemed wrong.

Because this sentence seemed to be saying—Yuan'er's status is not worthy of being my rival in love.

"I- I don't mean that . . ."

Her face flushed red, Xu Sui Sui hurriedly wanted to explain, but she felt like she was making things worse.

In the end, she simply stopped talking, snatched the handkerchief and lowered her head to wipe her face, looking rather embarrassed as if she was trying to hide something obvious.

Looking at her appearance, if it were normal, Wei Chang Tian would have teased her a few more times.

But now he wasn't in the mood, so he just sat down opposite Xu Sui Sui and casually asked:

"Is there any news from Qin Zheng Qiu's side?"

"No."

Slightly shaking her head, Xu Sui Sui, who had simply wiped her face, handed the handkerchief back to Wei Chang Tian: "I sent many people to look for him, but only found out that he left the city from the north."

"The north, so he went north?"

Wei Chang Tian's mind raced: "North of Feng Yuan are several prefectures of Da Ning and Da Hui, what is he doing there . . ."

"Perhaps there's no connection, Senior Qin just happened to leave through the north gate."

Xu Sui Sui softly reminded: "I still think he should come to find you."

"Find me . . . Did you tell him about the matter of only one person being able to become an immortal?"

"How could I!"

Wei Chang Tian retorted, and then changed the subject before Xu Sui Sui could flare up again.

"Alright, let's not talk about this."

"If he wants to come find me, then let him come, anyway, we'll adapt to the situation when the time comes."

"Let's talk about Guan Kong's matter instead."

"Last time I sent a message asking if you knew Huo Tian Yang, you said you didn't know . . . Is that true or false?"

"Of course it's true!"

Xu Sui Sui instinctively wanted to shout when she heard Wei Chang Tian suspecting her again.

However, when she saw the latter's serious expression, her voice became much softer for no reason.

"I didn't lie to you . . ."

"Alright."

This time, Wei Chang Tian nodded very readily, and then asked again:

"What about Han Guan?"

"Han Guan . . ."

Xu Sui Sui frowned and thought for a moment, then replied uncertainly: "Isn't he a Child of Destiny? I don't remember very clearly."

"Yes, he is a Child of Destiny."

Seeing that Xu Sui Sui didn't seem to be lying, Wei Chang Tian paused and then explained truthfully:

"At the same time, he is also Huo Tian Yang's adopted son."

"It's just that three years ago, Huo Tian Yang killed him and took away his Destiny's Aura."

"What?"

Xu Sui Sui was stunned when she heard this: "But that's not how it is in the books I read . . ."

"It's normal, just the butterfly effect."

Wei Chang Tian shook his head: "Furthermore, it doesn't matter what happens to Huo Tian Yang and Han Guan, the main point is Guan Kong."

"Huo Tian Yang is now working for Guan Kong, and there is another Child of Destiny named Lin Zhi, who is the same."

"Currently, I only know about these two, but there might be even more, it's hard to say."

"Are you saying—"

Xu Sui Sui asked in a daze: "That Guan Kong really has at least two Children of Destiny under his command?"

"Yes, that's what I mean."

Wei Chang Tian narrowed his eyes slightly, keenly noticing that Xu Sui Sui's wording was a bit abnormal.

"You seem to have guessed it a long time ago?"

"Not very early . . ."

Xu Sui Sui fidgeted with her fingers and replied softly: "On the way here, Xu Quan told me some things he knew, and I had this feeling when he mentioned Lin Zhi's name."

"I see."

Wei Chang Tian nodded slightly: "Anyway, that's the situation now."

"Guan Kong didn't appear in the books I read, nor did he appear in the books you read, but now he can gather so many Children of Destiny, and even come to me."

"This shows that he must have information about the Children of Destiny, and at least knows that I can plunder Destiny's Aura, and even knows that I'm a transmigrator."

"These things are too secretive, and I have already verified that he is not the third transmigrator, so I initially suspected that you leaked the secret."

"But if it wasn't you . . . then the whole thing might have to be reconsidered."

Soon, Wei Chang Tian briefly analyzed the current situation for Xu Sui Sui, with a somewhat helpless expression.

Just as he had just said, if the information did not leak from Xu Sui Sui's hands, then there was a high possibility that there was still a transmigrator hiding in the dark.

This person is either controlling or using Guan Kong to collect Destiny's Aura.

He knows the most information, at least more than himself and Xu Sui Sui.

More importantly, this person harbors a considerable amount of hostility towards him . . .

"Sigh, this is difficult . . ."

Muttering to himself, Wei Chang Tian got a headache at the thought that another transmigrator might emerge.

He supported his forehead and sighed deeply, not noticing that Xu Sui Sui's expression was a bit strange at the moment.

In the dim candlelight, she was biting her lip, her fingers were twisted together, and she secretly looked at Wei Chang Tian a few times, then quickly and flusteredly shifted her gaze away.

Just like a child who wants to confess a mistake but is afraid of being punished . . .

It could be seen that although Xu Sui Sui didn't lie to Wei Chang Tian, she should have indeed done something wrong.

She was afraid that Wei Chang Tian would get angry again if she told him, so she didn't dare to say it at first.

However, after a few breaths, perhaps thinking that concealing these things might have very serious consequences, Xu Sui Sui finally decided to "confess and receive leniency."

"That, um, I have something to tell you . . ."

Gathering her courage, she gently tugged at the corner of Wei Chang Tian's clothes, and stammered in a low voice like a mosquito buzzing:

"But can you promise me—"

"If you get angry later, can- can you not yell at me?"
