Tricked by Her Again

"No."

Wang Rulong was completely baffled.

"Then is my smile really that disgusting?"

"It's... not too bad. Just a little unique," Wang Rulong answered tactfully.

Ye Chen nearly couldn't stop himself from slapping this bastard to death.

His face darkened as he stared at Wang Rulong and asked,

"What's the relationship between that Tang brat and your family?"

"Our families are old friends. Young Master Tang is close to our family, and he's even my sister's ex-boyfriend," Wang Rulong quickly replied.

"Ex-boyfriend?"

At those three words, killing intent surged in Ye Chen's eyes.

What he could least accept was his woman having had intimate contact with another man!

Well played, Tang Yu! You're deliberately going against me, aren't you?

Not a single woman I've set my sights on are you willing to leave alone?

Still, as a master of medicine, he could tell that Wang Yixue was still a virgin, which improved his mood somewhat.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Chen said,

"There's no rush with our plan. I'll deal with that Tang brat first, so he doesn't come and ruin our game."

"Yes, yes, yes. Brother Ye truly has unmatched wisdom."

Wang Rulong praised him sincerely.

The Tang Family's trillion-yuan assets were right there. If they stepped in to help the Wang Family resolve its troubles, wouldn't his and Ye Chen's plan be for nothing?

"So what does Brother Ye plan to do?" Wang Rulong asked curiously.

"You'll know after the Tang Family falls."

Ye Chen smiled calmly, not wanting to explain further.

After leaving the Wang Family, he stood by the roadside, took out his phone, and made a call.

Once it connected, a girl's sweet voice came through.

"Dragon King, what are your orders?"

"Chi Yin, how is the infiltration into Tang Group going?"

"It has succeeded. My current identity is the general manager's secretary."

"Very good. You have one week to get everything I need. In one month, I want the Tang Family erased from Suhang!"

At that moment, Tang Yu, who was still at the Wang Family residence, suddenly sneezed.

"Damn it, who's talking about me again?"

Rubbing his nose, Tang Yu asked in his mind,

"Dog System, where's my reward for finishing the plot?"

"Ding. Host has successfully survived the second plot segment. Reward: Immunity to All Poisons."

Tang Yu was quite satisfied with this reward. Immunity to all poisons was good stuff.

In urban power-fantasy novels, what protagonist didn't know how to use poison? Especially someone like Ye Chen, who knew medicine.

With this thing, his chances of lying low until the grand finale had risen another notch.

Just as Tang Yu, in a good mood, was about to slip away, Wang Yixue blocked his path.

"Do you need something?" Tang Yu immediately asked with a cold expression.

[Girl, why are you blocking my way? I know you have a crush on me.]

[But this won't do, because I'm the man you can never have.]

[Your destined one isn't me. It's Ye Chen, understand?]

[Though I don't know why you found his smile disgusting today, sooner or later, you'll become obsessed with that 105-degree smile of his.]

The corners of Wang Yixue's lips rose slightly. A man she couldn't have?

Then she would insist on having him.

As for becoming obsessed with Ye Chen's smile? Ugh, he could go screw himself!

"Can't I just talk to you? Do you hate me, your ex-girlfriend, that much?"

She spoke in a sorrowful tone, wearing a pitiful expression.

"Why ask when you already know?" Tang Yu snorted coldly.

[If I didn't hate you, I'd be asking to get beaten up, little sister.]

[I'm only a villain. If a villain wants to keep lying low, he can't steal women from the protagonist.]

[We're fated to meet but not fated to be together, understand? Stop making trouble for no reason.]

[You didn't get my body back then, and now you've lost your chance.]

"Fine, I understand. Then I won't force you."

Wang Yixue nodded, then suddenly frowned and pointed ahead.

"Ye Chen, who told you to come back?"

Tang Yu instinctively turned around and stared wide-eyed, thinking Ye Chen had come to cause him trouble.

But when he looked back, there was no one there at all.

"Damn it, where is anyone?"

Tang Yu had just turned back with a gloomy face when his lips landed on Wang Yixue's cheek.

While Tang Yu had turned his head, she had deliberately moved her face close to him.

That way, the moment Tang Yu turned back, his lips would definitely kiss her cheek!

She was even holding her phone, recording with the front-facing camera!

Thus, the moment Tang Yu kissed her cheek was captured on video.

"Oh my, Young Master Tang, how could you do that?"

After being kissed, Wang Yixue looked flustered, though a trace of shyness showed on her face.

She lightly bit her lip and stepped back two paces, swiftly saving the video.

Hehe, let's see how you run now.

"Holy shit, you set me up?"

Tang Yu felt awful all over.

[Damn it, are you even a female lead? Is this something a human would do?]

[What, do you think you're a landlord? I'm not Bucktooth Jane either!]

[And you recorded a video? I'm dead this time. If that idiot Ye Chen sees it, won't he beat me to death?]

[A single night as husband and wife brings a hundred days of affection. We didn't spend the night together, but we were each other's first love, at least. That should count for ten days of affection, right? How could you set me up?]

"What did I set you up for? Would a girl like me voluntarily let you take advantage of me? Young Master Tang, have some shame, will you?"

Wang Yixue said innocently with a sly smile.

"Delete the video. Name your price."

Tang Yu held out his hand with a dark expression.

Damn it, good thing I'm a rich villain now!

At worst, he could solve the problem with money! It would also make Wang Yixue think he was some vulgar man who only ever talked about money!

"Money? My family has quite a lot of that too. It doesn't seem like I need it much."

Wang Yixue sighed and shook her head.

Seeing Tang Yu's depressed expression made her want to laugh.

But hearing him mention Ye Chen again and again only made Wang Yixue hate Ye Chen more and more.

As a business genius with an extremely high IQ, after listening to his inner thoughts for so long, she had completely understood.

The world she lived in was a novel world!

According to the original plot, Tang Yu was the villain, while she was part of Ye Chen's harem.

A harem? What a joke.

She had already had people begin investigating Ye Chen's background!

The moment an opportunity arose, that bastard would never leave Suhang alive!

"Enough. Stop being unreasonable and delete the video! Otherwise, don't blame me for turning hostile."

Tang Yu barked out a threat with a dark face.

[My dear lady, what exactly do you want? You don't even want money. What do you want? My pure and spotless body?]

[I just don't get it. Other than being rich, handsome, one meter eighty-five, having eight-pack abs, and possessing extraordinary charisma, what else is there about me that could attract you?]

[If you know what's good for you, let me go already. My Tang Family is Suhang's number one family. The deterrence is right there, understand?]

"Then turn hostile. If you do, I'll post the video on my Moments."

Wang Yixue shook her phone with a grin.

"Is this fun? Do you really think I won't hit a woman?" Tang Yu clenched his fist and waved it around, pretending to be fierce.

[See this? A fist as big as a sand bowl.]

[For someone as cute as you, one punch from me would have you crying for ages.]

[Delete the video already. This isn't what a female lead is supposed to do, understand?]
