Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Chapter 53: The Mermaid’s Heat Cycle

Shen Tang listened to the ticking sound in her head, like a ticking time bomb, wishing she could pull out the dog system and give it a good beating.

What kind of crappy task is it issuing!

Each one is trickier than the last!

"Change the task, I can’t take this one." Shen Tang’s temple throbbed.

The system was persuasive, [Mermaids experience an intense mating season after reaching adulthood, meant to be calmed by bonding with the host. However, since his marriage, he has been in a suppressed state. In recent months, Jia Lan’s mating season is becoming harder to control, and due to the mental upheaval triggered during an external siege last time, his body was forced into a premature mating state. He is currently suffering and urgently needs soothing.]

[Now is the perfect opportunity, host. Seize the moment, as the chance won’t come again!]

Shen Tang’s eyelids twitched wildly, suddenly feeling like the dog system was akin to a brothel madam enthusiastically introducing her enchanting top choice, enticing her as the customer to take advantage.

"Hah, if he hadn’t disliked the original host, he wouldn’t have suffered for it; otherwise, based on the original host’s wolf-like nature, she would’ve taken care of him by now. You, the host, can’t even enter his house." Shen Tang’s expression was indifferent, completely unmoved.

She frowned slightly, recalling the original plot. Jia Lan, different from other male leads, was an important character emerging in the later Chapters, barely mentioned early on except for when he returned to New Atlantis after the original host’s tragic death.

Years later, a coup occurred in the deep sea, and Jia Lan was crowned the new Sea Emperor.

It was rumored this Sea Emperor was powerful and tyrannical, imprisoned many beautiful females in the deep palace. The female lead was one of his strong-arm conquests. The subsequent drama was equally cliché—a one-sentence summary: the stallion male lead turns back for the female lead.

Unexpectedly, this indulgent tyrant was once tormented by his mating season in his youth.

Shen Tang sighed silently, curling her lips in disdain, "Doesn’t he have a little lover at the shelter? Seems like her name is Gu Lian. He can go to that female to relieve his mating season; it’s none of my business."

[Jia Lan doesn’t fancy Gu Lian. He is still a virgin. Host, seize the opportunity; winning the heart of this young Sea Emperor would be a significant weapon.]

Shen Tang was surprised; she thought that given the future Sea Emperor’s promiscuity, the two would have secretly consummated long ago, but unexpectedly he’s still untouched.

Recalling Jia Lan’s disdain towards her, Shen Tang’s mouth twitched slightly. If she dared to take advantage, that appearance-obsessed mermaid would definitely kill her once he sobered up!

[Host, the countdown has only 2 hours and 37 minutes left. Traveling is estimated to take an hour and a half. Please set off immediately to the task location.]

The system’s voice urged ominously in her mind.

Shen Tang couldn’t silence it even if she wanted to.

Although the task was somewhat annoying, the reward was quite tempting. Shen Tang needed some protective gear, so she mustered up the courage to proceed.

On the other side, things at Jia Lan’s home were not calm; the sound of things breaking echoed, the floor was a mess, and a trail of blood snaked all the way to the bathroom.

Thud!

A splash resonated.

The young man fell entirely into the water-filled bathtub, and the blood from his arm wound quickly tinted the water pale red.

He curled his body, face pale, brows tightly furrowed in pain, surrounded by a faint dark aura.

Damn it, his mating season was becoming uncontrollable.

Since returning from the contaminated zone, Jia Lan locked himself in his house, barely stepping out these days, refusing to see outsiders.

That fat woman repeatedly tried to harass him, it was utterly annoying.

He’d rather cut his hand to stay sane than ask her for help.

Suddenly, Jia Lan heard the sound of the door opening outside, and he opened his deep blue eyes, thinking it was that fat woman again. But upon checking the doorway monitor, he saw it was Gu Lian.

The young man’s expression was icy, unaware of a slight sense of loss that flickered in his heart.

How did this female get in?
