263 - I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System
Chapter 263: Ultimately, Su Qi Took on Everything Gu Panpan, with a rhythmic and joyful trot, finally reached the doorstep of her dorm room. Her hurried demeanor inadvertently drew the attention of many other girls nearby. Gu Panpan assumed that a gentle push would open the door to her dormitory. However, when she gave it a harder shove, it remained unmoved. What's going on? She quickly grabbed the doorknob and realized through its feel that it was actually locked from the inside. Where's the basic trust between people? Didn't we just say our heartfelt goodbyes? And yet, the two demonesses inside still took such precautions against me. Gu Panpan felt a pang of heartache at this realization. Moreover, she worried that when she met them later, if asked whether she had retrieved her phone, she wouldn't know how to respond. She was sure to face another round of questioning before leaving if she didn't. Recalling that day when her sneaky kiss went unnoticed, the two female demons had all sorts of reactions. Gu Panpan couldn't help but shiver at the thought. Nevertheless, it wasn't the time for despair just yet. There was another way—a hope that Su Qi could let her in from the inside. With this thought, Gu Panpan knocked on the door loudly. She prayed Su Qi would wake up. In fact, the sound of her knocking was so loud that it was more like a demand than a plea. Sleeping soundly inside, Su Qi was soon awakened by the noise. Seeing the relentless assault on the door, it reminded her of scenes from a horror movie, prompting her to quickly get out of bed. Yet such door-banging antics made Su Qi hesitant to speak; what if a burly man was trying to break in? With her fragile demeanor, she'd be powerless. Just then, Gu Panpan heard voices from the fourth floor of the two demonesses, An Ning and Wang Zijin, deliberately engaged in exaggerated conversation. Immediately, she increased the frequency of her knocks. Standing at the dormitory door, Su Qi became even more alarmed. Was this person that desperate? Was the dorm really so dangerous on the first day of break? As Su Qi contemplated, she grabbed her phone, intending to call her beloved for help. The police seemed unnecessary at this point—better to rely on nearby assistance. However, just as she was about to make the call, she heard Gu Panpan's voice from the door. "A Qi, quickly open up!" Hearing Gu Panpan’s voice, Su Qi was taken aback. She asked, "Is someone chasing you?" Listening to Su Qi's response, Gu Panpan felt as if Su Qi's voice was a melodious divine chant—a relief to her ears. Then, she saw the two female demons coming up from the stairwell. At that moment, Gu Panpan's phone in her pocket rang. Standing about ten steps away, Wang Zijin swung her phone and called out, "Panpan, isn't your phone in your pocket? Don't tell me you... lied?" As the two female demons drew closer, Gu Panpan instinctively shrank closer to the door. Right then, Su Qi opened the door from inside. As soon as the door opened, Gu Panpan fell forward into the room. Su Qi quickly reached out to catch her. Gu Panpan had been certain she'd fall, so she instinctively closed her eyes. She soon felt herself caught in a warm and fragrant embrace. The familiar scent led her to slowly open her eyes and see herself cradled in Su Qi's arms. She had always fantasized about holding Su Qi in her arms, but hadn't expected Su Qi to hold her first. Surprisingly, it felt quite nice. Of course, it would be even better if the two demonesses weren't glaring at her. An Ning and Wang Zijin, watching their spouse tangled with Gu Panpan, a cat with a taste for trouble, felt today was the day Gu Panpan would learn the consequences of her misdeeds. The ominous glare from the two sent a cautious chill through Gu Panpan, even while nestled in Su Qi’s soft embrace. Gu Panpan could recognize the familiar meaning behind those glares. Often, such expressions preceded her misfortune. Seeing the furious duo and her sweet Su Qi, Gu Panpan steeled herself. She was aware of the likely dire outcome. Yet if she didn't kiss Su Qi, she'd feel she missed out even more. With the storm inevitable, why not face it head-on? Thus, in Su Qi's startled gaze, she gave a gentle peck to the forehead she had missed that one day. "Smack." Feeling the moist trace on her forehead, Su Qi was bewildered. What was going on? Why the forehead kiss? Was this some odd ritual? Meanwhile, Su Qi could sense the lethal glare growing stronger. Although she didn’t understand Gu Panpan's actions, she tried to gently push her away. But her frail body lacked the strength. Though she leaned back, Gu Panpan clung tightly to her head. Even when her body recoiled, Gu Panpan's subtle force drew her forehead back for another "smack", the impact smart enough to hurt a little. Immediately, the hostile stares intensified. An Ning and Wang Zijin approached them from either side. Just as they prepared to separate the two, they heard the familiar voice of the dorm supervisor: "Whose luggage is this here? Leaving it in the middle of the way, aren't you afraid it'll get lost?" Seeing the dorm supervisor approach, Gu Panpan's eyes lit up. She quickly let go of Su Qi's arm, waving the other one not held by An Ning, and shouted, "Auntie, Auntie, it's mine, it's mine!" An Ning and Wang Zijin saw through her ploy to use the supervisor’s presence as an escape. But would it really be that easy? Wang Zijin hurried forward, grabbing Gu Panpan’s luggage, and said, "Auntie, I'll just help her take it back." Seeing Wang Zijin's calm demeanor, the dorm supervisor readily handed over the luggage. Meanwhile, An Ning began to push Gu Panpan back inside, since “family matters shouldn’t be aired in public.” Gu Panpan, realizing the fury burning in her friends, didn't want to let go of this lifeline as the supervisor was about to leave. Feigning distress, she exclaimed, "Oh, my heart, it hurts, I can’t breathe." Concerned, the dorm supervisor hurried back over to check, only to find herself stuck with the persistent Gu Panpan. In the end, through Gu Panpan’s acts of coquettish charm, the dorm supervisor agreed to accompany her back downstairs. Watching the scene, Su Qi couldn't help but marvel at how boundless human potential can be. Who would've thought that the normally scatterbrained Gu Panpan could seize such a crucial opportunity? As she observed Gu Panpan and the supervisor descend together, Su Qi felt a sense of relief. Yet soon after, she found herself being led inside by her own wife, An Ning. Then wife Zijin slowly locked the door behind them. Subsequently, Su Qi was pinned against the wardrobe by wife An Ning. She watched as wife Zijin retrieved a conspicuous red silk ribbon. Gently, the ribbon wound around her wrists, ending in a big red bow. Su Qi wished to protest, but then An Ning spoke up: "Darling, you weren't behaving earlier, ignoring basic safety. It seems the lesson from that day wasn't enough to reach your bones, hmm?" Su Qi wanted to argue that she was a victim too. But her wives' actions gave her no chance to explain herself. Her wide eyes stared blankly at the locked dormitory door. Could this be considered taking on everything for Gu Panpan? Gu Panpan, you better come back here!
