Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty

Therefore, even though Silas had accumulated a tempest of anger in his heart, he could not vent it on her. His brows knit together involuntarily, and he felt a little blocked in his chest for no reason.

No one had ever spoken those words to him before; not even Ellie.

He could not quite grasp whether it was because someone had touched upon the strange and inexplicable emotions lurking deep in his heart. His expression looked even worse than before.

…

After Yue Ran treated the wound on her arm, she recalled a scene in the plot. The wound on Silas's chest, inflicted by Ellie, had never healed— at least it would not for a long time. The injury was caused by a magical weapon. It was also a coincidence that the sword that stabbed Silas was the magical sword that he had personally given to Ellie for protection.

It was no surprise that Silas would ask her (more like the female protagonist, Ellie) if she liked Andre while his consciousness was hazy. With the male protagonist's personality, the more unattainable something is, the more he would be reluctant to let it go. That was also why the male protagonist held her wrist so tightly, even when he was nearly unconscious, and refused to let go.

The male protagonist truly does have deep feelings for the female protagonist.

…

Inside the study.

After listening to the careful report of a guard, Silas's previously calm face suddenly turned gloomy.

"Go and find her for me," he said sternly, his eyes unforgiving. "No matter where she hides, you must find her for me; or else…"

The guard retreated tremblingly after receiving the order from his king.

Yue Ran coincidentally heard the sound of the doors closing from where she was.

As far as she knew, Andre had already taken Ellie to a safe place, so naturally, no one could find any traces of the two. However, it would not last long. After a few days to a week, these people would be able to follow the clues to their location, so she (Yue Ran) had to speed up the process of her strategy of gaining the male protagonist's affection.

That was why Yue Ran was currently on her way to the study of the Demon King. Soon, she arrived at her destination, and with a few steps, she entered the room.

She did not urge the standing guards to announce her presence since this was obviously not the right time. This was because Silas was worried about Ellie at the moment. He wanted to know where she was and how she was doing. He wanted to know if she had encountered anything dangerous or if she would face any trouble. But on second thought, with Andre by her side, nothing would happen to her. Then he felt angry again.

As soon as he turned his body around from the window, he saw someone who should not be there: Yue Ran.

"What are you doing here again?" Silas asked, his eyes fixed on her face.

The more he looked at her, the more he felt that this woman was not right. For a moment, he even suspected that she and Ellie had colluded to trick him. This fake may have deliberately married him to buy time so that Ellie could take the opportunity to escape. So, were there actually more people who worked together— both internally and externally— to play him like a pawn in the palm of their hands?

Yue Ran was stunned for a brief moment, but she was not frightened by his cold tone. Instead, she walked over calmly and carefully placed the tray with the long gauze, scissors, and medicine bottles in her hands down on the table.

"The wounds on Your Majesty's, the Demon King's, chest have not healed. These medications were given by the doctor. I came here to help you treat them, " Yue Ran explained her purpose in a few sentences.

Silas frowned slightly and no longer wanted to pay attention to her after learning of her reason for being here.

"Get out," the man ordered. "I do not need those useless things."

Yue Ran hesitated for a moment but still did not follow his order. Instead, she walked up to him and asked an irrelevant question, "Is Your Majesty unhappy?"

The other party answered her with silence.

Yue Ran was not at all impatient with such an attitude; a usual smile remained fixed on her face. Her dark and clean pupils reflected Silas's increasingly impatient expression.

"Your Majesty, even if you are unhappy, you should not neglect your own body," Yue Ran said.

This time, Silas glanced at her in a merciful manner, but still said nothing.

Yue Ran suddenly thought of something and said, "How about this— I will tell you a secret. In exchange, you have to let me help you treat your wounds, okay?"

…A secret?

After hearing this, Silas's eyes instantly turned dangerous.

"You are threatening me, Leila," he said. "Do you think I have such a good temper?"

Yue Ran hurriedly shook her head and explained, "Do not misunderstand, Your Majesty; how dare I threaten you? This can only be regarded as a small agreement between us."

Silas's attention at this moment is entirely focused on the secret she was about to divulge. He was wondering if the secret this woman had was related to Ellie. Does she know where Ellie is?

Thinking of this, Silas grabbed Yue Ran's wrist, his deep and dangerous black eyes locked onto her, and he asked in a menacing manner, "What secret do you know?"

Yue Ran was not as anxious as Silas. She seemed to have expected the other party to react this way, so she looked at him helplessly and tenderly before replying, "I said that it was an exchange. Your Majesty must let me treat your wound first before I can tell you what it is."

Silas pursed his lips, suppressed the irritability...
