QT: Against My Will-Chapter 492 - 8.09 - Sufer With Me - Monster Heist
492 8.09 – Sufer With Me – Monster Heist
Bing Shi didn’t want Silvia and Nathaniel to end up together and become a bad example for the next generation. Imagine seeing Silvia obtaining the heart of the most wanted man in the world, how incredibly undeserving would that be?
Bing Shi rose to her feet and grasped her cane and a small stringed instrument, then followed after Nathaniel, “Should I perform ‘Rising Above It All’?” Muttering to herself, she turned back to close the door, fastening her cane to her hips like a sword.
Bing Shi still couldn’t comprehend how she became a popular idol in the past despite the vocal and dancing lessons she took. She guessed it must have been due to the use of autotune technology.
She attempted to pluck a few strings, searching for the specific sounds she was looking for, “? The winds of change are blowing strong, ? with my head held high, I’ll stand my ground, ? I’ll face the storm, I’ll weather the pain,” She quickly caught up to Nathaniel, chanting in her mind, ‘SUFEEEER WITH MEEEE, YOU BADIE!’ Please visit 𝒇𝙧𝐞ℯ𝒘e𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝐞𝑙. c𝐨m
Nathaniel paused for a moment to give the woman, who tried to be in Silvia’s character, a blank look. She must be thinking that his ears were bleeding. He couldn’t tell if she was singing well or not because, let’s face it, he was being tonally challenged. His wife’s lack of confidence in singing was partly due to his own musical limitations.
The nearby LAD’s expression was priceless. He was completely stunned by Silvia’s singing and was even more impressed when she sang, ‘The journey ahead, may be long and rough, but we’ve got each other, and that’s enough.’ He remembered the lyrics very well; he had heard this song many times growing up.
Nathaniel continued to walk at a slower pace, “I’m not going to restore your beauty.” He could feel the heat radiating from her body and smell the pheromones filling his nostrils, “No matter what you offer me.”
The LAD could smell it too, the hard-to-resist omega in heat. Her look no longer mattered to him; there was only one thing he wanted to do to her. As if he was set on autopilot mode, he quickly injected himself with a drug that suppressed his natural instincts.
“Restoring my beauty, hm?” She charged at Nathaniel like a feather in the wind, “So does it mean…you once found me beautiful?”
.....
“Well, I wouldn’t go that far. Perhaps ‘moderately tolerable’ would be more accurate,” Nathaniel replied.
“Unfortunately...” Bing Shi moved around sluggishly, sensing the change in her body, “I have nothing valuable left to offer. I simply wanted to sing a song for the first person who showed up,” she replied. She was looking forward to seeing where this spontaneous decision would take her.
Nathaniel stumbled back as Bing Shi shuffled towards him. The heat was beating down on her mercilessly, making her feel like she was in an oven, blurring out her sight.
“I believe fate has brought us together today.” Her arms outstretched like a sleepy bear, approaching him with a wistful smile, “How about we seal the deal with a big, loving hug?”
“...” Did she realize that it was impossible for him to find her as annoying as Silvia? He intentionally didn’t move, thinking she would jump-hug him like usual.
“I must be hallucinating again,” Bing Shi passed by Nathaniel as if he was nothing more than a ghost, completely indifferent to his presence, “The air felt too warm for Nathaniel to be nearby.”
She continued down the hall, her steps becoming more like a zombie’s shuffle. However, upon distancing herself from a marble pillar, she suddenly spun around and embraced it tightly, savoring the chill it provided, “Mm, this feels more like a place where Nathaniel would be.”
“...” Lu Kai stood there, still in disbelief as he allowed Bing Shi to disappear from his sight. If it was Silvia, he would have ordered the LAD behind the walls to carry her to her dorms. The academy was guarded by fifty LADs at first, but the number increased after the incident.
He was so sure he would be content with just having a relationship with Bing Shi within their space. But he just caught himself taking a break from his work to be near her, even for just a brief moment. He couldn’t help but laugh at himself for being so impatient, despite having all the time in the world.

Midway through her hopping, Bing Shi was yanked inside one of the hidden rooms — the place where the LADs lived, “Hub—!?!”
Ru Quan covered her mouth as he brought her towards the man sitting before the screens. He was taking a bit of advantage of his identity as her husband. If someone else had tried to capture her, they might have fallen to the ground in defeat. This girl had an endless supply of weapons at her disposal, both on her person and within her space.
Bing Shi looked up at the various screens and gasped. One of them was replaying her singing and she almost threw up watching her performance. She wanted to cheer herself up after feeling bad for being the only one who wasn’t working or training, not to end up as a damsel in distress.
“Tilt-up her head,” Victor held a syringe between his fingers as if it were some sort of weapon, looking at the hesitating Ru Quan, “Don’t bother asking me why. Nobody will know what happened here. Just do it!”
Bing Shi shook her head, a cold breeze hitting her neck as Ru Quan tilted her head and lifted her chin to expose her nape, “Mmm...!”
“Oh please, what’s with that pitiful look? You’re not going to die.” Victor raised an eyebrow, “What’s wrong? Afraid your beautiful voice will get rusty?”
He was already irritated because of Nora, who left him behind to make him do her job on his own. Silvia’s singing made him realize that she still had something valuable he could take away from her.
