Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 445

Chapter 445: Chapter 434: Adding Another Layer of Safeguard

Fu Teng pretended to weave a flower crown with a few vines, but in fact, his gaze occasionally fell on Shen Tang. Seeing her lying on the chair, gradually falling asleep, he stopped his actions.

He walked to the side of the recliner, casting a shadow overhead, and after focusing for a few seconds, his slender, fair fingers slowly transformed into vibrant green vines, drooping to the ground like green bamboo shoots.

Shen Tang’s heart skipped a beat, thinking this guy might be up to no good and was planning a sneak attack—

Unexpectedly, he pulled off the vines that his fingers had turned into and swiftly wove them into a hammock to hang on a tree. Turning his head, he said to her, "Xiao Gua, this chair isn’t comfortable to sleep on; come here to rest!"

"..." This guy is pretty sharp.

Shen Tang could no longer pretend to sleep. She opened her eyes, got up, walked to the hammock, and tugged on the vine ropes, finding them quite sturdy.

The ancient tree cast shadows, with light peeking through the dense foliage, sprinkling specks of patterns across the ground.

With the sound of the wind, the branches and leaves like a green sea gently rustled, as if someone were playing a melody by her ear.

Shen Tang lay on the hammock with her eyes closed, relishing the unique comfort.

Suddenly, she felt a cool sensation on her leg. Opening her eyes, she found a few green vines quietly wrapping around her lower leg, slowly moving upward.

She smiled slyly, "What’s this? Are you trying to assassinate me while I’m asleep?"

"How could I dare? I heard you’ve been very tired lately, so I wanted to give you a massage to relax your muscles and bones." said Fu Teng, as the emerald vines fondly brushed against her leg, skillfully curling up to gently massage her leg.

He was quite dedicated to service, asking gently while massaging, "Xiao Gua, how’s the pressure?"

Shen Tang squinted comfortably and raised an eyebrow, "Heard? You’ve been cooped up in your space all day. Where did you hear that from?"

"The plants in the yard told me. They said you’re so busy every day that sometimes you don’t even have time to eat. It makes me feel sorry for you~"

"You can talk to plants?" Shen Tang asked curiously.

Fu Teng replied, "Yes, I am considered a plant myself, a Lord-level overlord among plants... though that was in the past."

His voice was low, sounding almost wistful.

Shen Tang squinted slightly, her thoughts wandering. She hadn’t expected that Fu Teng could communicate with plants. No wonder he knew her identity for a long time, pretending all this time. The more she thought about it, the more cunning he seemed!

However, his ability was quite useful.

"What do you think, Xiao Gua? Do you find me impressive? Useful?" He smiled as he leaned closer, his deep green hair winding around her black tresses like a puppy begging for a reward.

"Mm, very impressive. As long as you don’t intend to harm others again, I could let go of past grievances and coexist peacefully with you." Despite the praise, Shen Tang remained unmoved, subtly distancing herself and staying on guard against his every move.

Shen Tang was well aware that this plant had no emotions. No matter how well he acted or how sweetly he spoke, it was all fabricated and could turn against her at any moment.

She could never afford to let her guard down or be deceived by his honeyed words.

The bright sunlight streamed through the window, yet it couldn’t fully illuminate the entire room.

The bed curtain was drawn, casting an ambiguous shadow.

Shen Li lay on the bed, one hand propping up his forehead, aimlessly staring at the ceiling, as if looking at some void in the air.

These days, Shen Li stayed in the room, rarely going out.

Except for the night when he was critically injured and unconscious, his injuries were mostly healed. He had hardly stepped outside, knowing that the other person didn’t wish to see him.

Now, he felt it was time to go out for a walk.

Through the connection of the Blood Soul Pearl, he could clearly sense the other person’s location.

Shen Li got up, opened the door, and walked into the courtyard, unexpectedly encountering an unexpected figure.

"...You’re still alive?!"

Shen Li was visibly shocked to see Fu Teng.

Seeing him still with Shen Tang, a flash of tension crossed Shen Li’s eyes. His palm quickly ignited with Fox Fire, intending to extinguish this vine.
