Transmigrated into a Villain, the Female Leads' Personalities Have All Changed - Part 2

Who else could it be but Li Ruoling?

Holy crap!

The key thing was, why the hell was Li Ruoling sitting right next to him!

Broken—the plot was absolutely broken.

It's over, it's over, definitely going to have to start over.

At this moment, Li Ruoling's sudden appearance instantly made her the center of attention.

Countless noble sons shot looks of envy, jealousy, and hatred in their eyes.

Xu Chen actually had such a stunning beauty by his side?

Especially Ye Xuan—for some reason, he felt a faint ache in his heart.

It was as if something of his had suddenly been lost, yet he was powerless to do anything about it.

He gritted his teeth: "That woman's status must be extraordinary. Why would she willingly approach Xu Chen?"

A sense of defeat began to creep in, since he had no such woman by his own side.

The girls in the hall had red-rimmed eyes. Who was this bitch, actually trying to seduce Xu Chen?

At this moment, Xu Chen's face was stiff as a board: "Miss, why are you sitting here?"

He really wanted to kick Li Ruoling back to the back row, but he couldn't beat her right now.

This woman was the Saintess of Jixia Academy, and she was ridiculously strong at the moment.

Inside, he was screaming: Get lost, just get lost, don't come near me!

Li Ruoling covered her mouth with a light laugh: "What, can't I come over?"

Xu Chen: "..."

Damn it!

This woman was supposed to be extremely aloof in the novel. He'd simped for her so many times before, and he'd never once heard her say the word "can't I."

Today, she was actually acting coy with him on her own, and in front of everyone?

What the hell!

"System, are you f*cking messing with me?"

Xu Chen asked inwardly.

System: "A minor hiccup, nothing serious. Just follow the plot."

Xu Chen had the urge to beat the system to death.

This woman was already sitting right in front of him—how was he supposed to follow the plot now!

You never said this kind of situation would happen!

Xu Chen's face was full of awkwardness: "Miss, it seems we're not exactly acquainted?"

He really wanted to slip into his simp role right now, but found it a bit too much to handle.

It was hard enough before, and now it was even harder.

Li Ruoling chuckled softly: "That's fine, we can take it slow if we're not acquainted. Hello, my name is Li Ruoling."

Xu Chen: "..."

Xu Chen was completely dumbfounded. How did it feel like he wasn't the simp anymore, but this woman was the one simping?

His face twisted in pain: "My name is Xu Chen. Miss, you're quite beautiful."

Li Ruoling's heart was filled with joy. A hundred cycles of reincarnation, and he still hadn't changed.

Still that handsome youth who, the moment he opened his mouth, would say she was beautiful.

In this life's rebirth, she would definitely not let him down.

Li Ruoling's face was full of smiles: "Is that so? You're very handsome too."

At this point, Xu Chen was certain—the plot was truly broken, and the Female Lead had gone bad too.

He had no idea now what Li Ruoling was trying to do by coming to him.

Could it be that Li Ruoling had already made contact with Ye Xuan in advance, and they were conspiring to harm him?

For a moment, Xu Chen stared at the radiant Li Ruoling, lost in thought.

He figured there was only one scenario where the normally aloof Li Ruoling would act this abnormally.

That was if Li Ruoling had already gotten together with Ye Xuan ahead of time, and was pretending to be friendly to get close to him, dragging him into a whirlpool of emotions.

Then, when the time came, she would reveal her true identity, mock him ruthlessly, and then destroy his family, leaving him devastated.

This was probably Ye Xuan's twisted sense of fun, since at this point, Ye Xuan was still being suppressed by Xu Chen.

He figured this was the only way Ye Xuan could vent the hatred in his heart.

"So that's it, I get it now!"

Xu Chen instantly understood.

Only this way would it fit the roles of the protagonist, the female lead, and the villain.

As a villain, he still had plenty of self-awareness.

Beside him, Li Ruoling's face flushed slightly at his words. Could it be that he'd seen through her feelings for him?

Ah, he was still so clever, seeing right through her intentions. How embarrassing.

She recalled the past ninety-nine lifetimes, where she had betrayed Xu Chen over and over, forced to fawn over the disgusting Ye Xuan instead.

In truth, as early as the thirtieth or fortieth lifetime, she had already been completely moved by Xu Chen's kindness.

In the ninety-ninth lifetime, she had screamed inside, begging the heavens to give her one chance—to not let Xu Chen be killed again.

She wanted to make it up to him, to love him, to let no one harm him, to give him everything, even her life without hesitation.

Today, that wish had finally come true.

She had been reborn, and she saw her beloved Xu Chen, still so handsome, still so clever.

Without hesitation, she told Xu Chen's father, Xu Ming, who she was, then sat down beside Xu Chen.

Xu Ming was naturally overjoyed—after all, Li Ruoling was the Saintess of Jixia Academy!

At this moment, Li Ruoling said shyly, "You... what do you understand?"

Xu Chen was speechless. This female lead was putting on a good act.

But this was all Ye Xuan's twisted taste; she really didn't need to do this.

If she wanted to suppress him, to scheme against him, she could just do it openly. He would cooperate fully. Really.

So Xu Chen cleared his throat. "Miss Li is stunningly beautiful. Did you come today for the Human Spirit Pill as well?"

Li Ruoling smiled. "Do you want this Human Spirit Pill?"

Xu Chen immediately slipped into his role. "Of course. The Human Spirit Pill is so precious—how could I not want it?"

The protagonist, Ye Xuan, sneered inwardly. Just a low-grade Human Spirit Pill, and he called it precious? What a joke.

Li Ruoling nodded. "Alright. I am the Saintess of Jixia Academy. If you're short on spirit stones, just tell me."

"Whoa!"

The crowd erupted in murmurs. She was the Saintess of Jixia Academy? No wonder she dared to speak like that.

And Xu Chen was actually connected to the Saintess? It looked like the Xu family was about to rise.

Ye Xuan's eyes flickered. So she was the Saintess of Jixia Academy. Maybe he could get on her good side.

If he told Li Ruoling that he was the one who refined this pill, she would surely think well of him.

As for Xu Chen, he was just relying on his family's wealth—nothing impressive.

With that thought, a smirk tugged at Ye Xuan's lips. He had his master in the ring. He was sure to win.

At this moment, Xu Chen's face was full of pain.

He just wanted to obediently follow the script, get toyed with and crushed by the protagonist—why did it feel so hard?

Give me a break, big sister. I just want to go back.

He rubbed his temples and continued playing his part. "I never expected the Saintess to be not only beautiful but also so kind-hearted. Then I'll gratefully accept your offer."

After saying this, Xu Chen even put on a look of gratitude and greed.

He figured if he just didn't think at all and acted like a creature driven by his lower half, that would be brainless enough, right?

Li Ruoling chuckled softly. "No need to thank me. It's only right."

In her heart, she whispered, You gave me your life in the past life. Helping you get a mere Human Spirit Pill—what is that?

She remembered that in her past life, no matter what danger arose, Xu Chen would always stand in front of her.
