    Chapter 118: The Night of the Auspicious Wedding, the Crazy Reborn Villain (2)

    Lin Xu stared intently at the man on the bed.

    The man’s menacing face floated in his mind, and the arrogant, carefree smile that showed no concern for his life or death during the electrocution kept replaying.

    A surge of murderous intent rose, and the room’s temperature dropped a few degrees.

    The nighttime temperature in the mountains was already low, and the villa had no air conditioning installed, relying solely on primitive methods of warmth.

    Lin Xu was only wearing a single layer of clothing, with his sleeves rolled up, revealing skin tinged faintly bluish-purple from the cold.

    Yet he seemed oblivious, his eyes fixed on Song Chuyi.

    On the bed, Song Chuyi felt uneasy.

    Now that Lin Xu had clearly been reborn, anyone could feel the obvious murderous intent.

    Fortunately, he wasn’t in immediate danger at this stage. Given Lin Xu’s nature, he would surely torture him first.

    Torture him until he couldn’t take it anymore, and then kill him.

    Thinking this, Song Chuyi immediately felt less tense.

    As long as he wasn’t killed, what did he have to fear?

    With that thought, Song Chuyi sprang up with a swift, fluid movement.

    "Lin Xu!"

    A gust of wind swept past, and in the next moment, Lin Xu felt his body lift off the ground.

    His pupils shrank as he forcefully grabbed Song Chuyi’s wrist with astonishing strength.

    "What are you doing?"

    Song Chuyi looked down, "I’m carrying you to bed."

    "Look at your skin, it’s turning purple from the cold."

    He placed Lin Xu on the bed and tucked him in with the blanket.

    "Tonight is our wedding night after all, you should rest early."

    "Although there’s nothing much to do tomorrow and no one will visit us, it’s getting late, so you need to sleep."

    He patted the blanket, coaxing like a child, "Go to sleep, go to sleep."

    Lin Xu stared intently at Song Chuyi, his chest heaving dramatically.

    After being reborn, he hadn’t expected Song Chuyi’s humiliating tactics to have become even more formidable.

    He was actually treating him like a child, humph, who knew where he had learned this trick.

    First, give a candy and then push the person into the abyss—this Song Chuyi was indeed smarter than the one before his rebirth.

    Lin Xu sneered, "Is this your tactic?"

    "After I fall asleep, you’ll go find your friends to wreck this place."

    "Take a photo of me lying in bed and make fun of me online?"

    These were the same tactics he used on him in his previous life, and now he would absolutely not let him succeed again.

    Song Chuyi had a vague idea. He rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

    "These tactics are too crude."

    "I don't think this is a good idea."

    Lin Xu's heart raced. He always felt that since being reborn, Song Chuyi seemed different.

    Could he have also been reborn?

    No, that can't be possible.

    Lin Xu's eyes grew dark, and he sneered, "What do you intend to do?"

    "Hmm, I haven't decided yet." Song Chuyi patted the quilt. "Why don't you get some rest first? I'll tell you when you wake up tomorrow."

    Lin Xu clenched his fists. "Song Chuyi, do you take me for a fool?"

    "No." Song Chuyi glanced at his legs. "I see you as a cripple."

    Lin Xu: ……

    "Heh." He sneered coldly, closed his eyes, and stopped looking at Song Chuyi.

    As long as he didn't sleep, Song Chuyi would never be able to capture his dejected and defeated appearance.

    In this life, he would take back everything that belonged to him.

    Satisfied, Song Chuyi nodded approvingly as he saw Lin Xu close his eyes and obediently go to sleep.

    He pulled back the quilt and silently slipped out of bed.

    With the door closing softly, Lin Xu opened his eyes.

    That person was indeed up to something.

    Fortunately, he had anticipated this.

    Lin Xu took out his phone, brought up the surveillance footage of the villa, and looked for Song Chuyi.

    At that moment, Song Chuyi was wandering around.

    The villa, situated deep in the mountains, was highly inconvenient. Even the water supply relied on a well nearby.

    If the well dried up, the villa would be without water.

    Moreover, the villa was very empty. Though it was called a villa, the second floor was just a place for storing miscellaneous items, barely renovated.

    Downstairs, there was only a master bedroom and a study. The living room was large, but there wasn't even a sofa.

    Let alone a TV.

    After wandering around the first floor, Song Chuyi headed towards the entrance.

    Outside the door, there was a small path paved with stone slabs. Beyond that was a large iron gate.

    Beyond the iron gate, densely grown trees filled the area, and the howls of wolves could be faintly heard.

    Song Chuyi was puzzled.

    Lin Xu sure had some nerve.

    Apart from this, there was nothing else.

    No garden, no swimming pool—nothing of the kind.

    This place seemed far from livable for a modern person.

    After touring the entire villa, Song Chuyi didn’t return to the bedroom.

    He didn’t need to sleep anyway. What better way to spend this beautiful first day than by digging?

    Song Chuyi went upstairs to find a hoe. He carried it downstairs and headed toward the weedy patch beside the stone path.

    The open area around the villa was overrun with weeds. His task was to clear the weeds and till the soil for planting vegetables.

    Song Chuyi began digging.

    The hoe struck the soil, uprooting the deeply rooted weeds.

    A sticky yet crisp sound resonated outside.

    In the bedroom, Lin Xu glared at the surveillance footage.

    This guy was actually digging. He told him to get some rest, but he was actually making noise outside to keep him awake.

    What a devious plan!

    Strangely, the sound made Lin Xu’s eyelids feel heavy.

    It felt as though warm hands were gently caressing his back, soothing him and telling him not to worry.

    Lin Xu didn’t realize when he had drifted off.

    He jolted awake from a nightmare, and it was already dawn outside.

    His eyes widened, and he instinctively searched the room for Song Chuyi.

    But the bedroom was empty except for the bed and him lying on it.

    Song Chuyi’s voice drifted in faintly from outside the window.

    "Finally cleared a plot of land!"

    "I’ll ask Lin Xu later if he has any vegetable seeds."

    Lin Xu frowned. Vegetable seeds... Was he planning to grow his own vegetables to poison him?

    Soon, there was a knock on the bedroom door.

    "Lin Xu, are you awake?"

    Lin Xu didn’t respond.

    He lay in bed, his legs numb, unable to move, and he didn’t even have the strength to transfer to a wheelchair.

    All he could see was the white ceiling overhead, as if mocking his useless later years.

    "Still not awake?"

    Song Chuyi's voice continued to sound.

    "The sun’s already up and shining on your backside!"

    "Lin Xu, wake up! I’m coming in."

    The door creaked open as Song Chuyi entered, wheeling a chair to the bedside.

    Seeing his eyes were open, Song Chuyi bent down and poked his cheek.

    "So you’re finally awake."

    "Why aren’t you saying anything?"

    Lin Xu remained silent, acting as if Song Chuyi didn’t exist.

    Song Chuyi stared at him for a moment, then smacked his forehead.

    "I understand."

    "Did you forget to brush your teeth last night and now you’re too embarrassed to talk?"

    Lin Xu: …

    "I did brush my teeth," he said, his eyebrow twitching, "My breath doesn’t stink."
