Villain Young Master Doesn't Want to Fall in Love with the Cute Domineering Female Lead

"He Xue..."

Yao Shi, hidden in a corner of the lobby, silently observed He Xue as she entered the elevator.

This girl was the Young Master's classmate, and indeed, a beautiful prospect. So, the Young Master likes this pure and cute type of girl? That child does give off a good impression.

"I think I understand what the Young Master meant," Yao Shi nodded thoughtfully. No wonder the Young Master had intervened to save that elder named He Jingao. Was it to gain this girl's favor? It does fit the Young Master's usual style.

"But will the Young Master truly achieve his goal by doing this?" Yao Shi tilted her head, looking in the direction He Xue had left, as if not quite understanding Wu Liang's actions. If the Young Master wants to use this opportunity to get closer to He Xue, why did he specifically instruct them not to reveal his identity? If Miss He Xue doesn't know who helped her, won't their relationship remain stagnant?

"The Young Master's actions are, as always, unfathomable." Yao Shi shook her head, dismissing these messy thoughts. Since the Young Master specifically gave me instructions, he must have his reasons. As his maid, I don't need to try and guess the Young Master's thoughts; I just need to follow his orders.

"He Xue, I wonder if she is worthy of the Young Master, worthy of the Wu Family." Yao Shi rubbed her slightly tired shoulders and murmured softly. If the Young Master truly fancies He Xue, then I must test that woman. Becoming Young Master Wu Liang's companion, becoming the future daughter-in-law of the Wu Family, is not something decided lightly.

"To become the Young Master's woman, you'll have to get past me first." Yao Shi recalled what Mu Xinrou had instructed her not long ago. A faint blush colored her normally icy-cool face. If Wu Liang were here, he might be stunned speechless by Yao Shi's shy expression. Yao Shi, who had always been known for her icy demeanor, was actually showing shyness at a moment like this.

"Miss He Xue, I eagerly await the day we meet again." Yao Shi took a deep breath and said calmly. She would not entrust the Young Master to a stranger so easily.

Ps: Starting tomorrow, I'll be repaying the overdue monthly passes and fire volume updates!

Chapter Twenty: "Male Lead" Wants to Make Friends~

"L-Leader... who is this?" Rat stared blankly at Nan Zhu, who was following the two of them. Why is this sudden transfer student getting along so well with the Leader? I arrived first, so why does this pretty boy seem more familiar?

"That's a long story..." Wu Liang's forehead was covered in black lines as he looked at Nan Zhu behind him. Recalling what happened not long ago, that woman Ye Luotong really knows how to cause trouble for me. If I remember correctly, the first person Nan Zhu met when he transferred was He Xue, right? And it was also He Xue who showed Nan Zhu around the school. How did it end up with me and Rat showing him around the campus now?

"What is all this messy stuff? The plot has gone completely off the rails." Wu Liang covered his forehead and complained, feeling like he was deviating further and further from the script. Ever since I met He Xue that night, things have felt a bit strange.

"Leader, did Teacher Ye really ask you to show him around the school?" Rat was completely bewildered. Teacher Ye should know what kind of person the Leader is. Why would she suddenly ask the Leader to do something like this? And what's even more outrageous is that the Leader actually agreed. The Leader always disdained doing this kind of thing before. Ever since he got hit on the head, everything feels different.

"Who else would I ask? You?" Wu Liang rolled his eyes at Rat. Who knows what that woman Ye Luotong is thinking.

It was quite a stretch for her to suggest that this delinquent young master act as a tour guide.

"Hey, you're walking a bit too fast. Can you slow down a little?"

Nan Zhu jogged up to Wu Liang and the other person, speaking with a smile.

The two of them were walking at such a large stride that it was difficult for him to keep up.

Especially Wu Liang, who seemed to be deliberately increasing his pace, walking faster and faster as if to put distance between them.

"It's Wu Liang, not 'delinquent'."

Wu Liang's eye twitched as he looked at Nan Zhu. If it weren't for the fact that you're the male lead, do you think I wouldn't stab you?

In his entire life, the thing Wu Liang hated the most was being called "delinquent." Delinquent, delinquent, are you discriminating against my name?

"You're really quite shy! We're already so familiar with each other."

Nan Zhu walked alongside Wu Liang, speaking with a beaming smile.

He was already so familiar with the other person, and that person had even saved him once.

He hadn't expected Wu Liang to be so shy and bashful. Perhaps this was what they meant by "you can't judge a book by its cover."

Could this be considered a kind of 'contrast moe'? Even though he's a guy, it's quite interesting.

"Don't talk nonsense here. If you don't want to tour anymore, just say so."

Wu Liang placed his large hand on Nan Zhu's head and ruffled it forcefully a few times, turning the other person's hair into a mess.

However, as if sensing something, Wu Liang frowned slightly and looked at his palm with some confusion.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, don't do that! At least take me to see the library and the cafeteria!"

Nan Zhu shielded his head, speaking with a mixture of laughter and tears.

Did he accidentally hit a nerve with Wu Liang? Why did his reaction suddenly become so intense?

"If you want to go, then follow me obediently."

Wu Liang glared at Nan Zhu, then shifted his gaze to their surroundings.

He had noticed it from the beginning. Couldn't these people around them stop staring with such burning gazes?

He was just showing a transfer student around the campus, was this the male lead effect? (Male lead effect: attracting others' attention at all times)

"Yes~"

Nan Zhu smiled with great interest, his hands behind his back as he hopped along following Wu Liang's footsteps.

He had a feeling that this classmate Wu Liang was even more interesting than he had imagined, at least from what he could see so far.

The other person wasn't as difficult to get along with as he appeared on the surface; he was just someone whose actions didn't match his words.

"..."

The Rat, long ignored to the side, stared at the receding Wu Liang and Nan Zhu with a petrified, black-and-white expression.

Two lines of tears streamed down his eyes. Boss... Boss, you've changed your heart...

He hadn't expected Boss to be such a cold, heartless, and fickle person. His heart was about to shatter into a million pieces.

That pretty boy, isn't he just better looking? Boss actually got so close to him after just one meeting.

"I was wrong about you. From now on, let that pretty boy follow by your side."

The Rat stood in place, sniffling and weeping, looking utterly wronged.

The Boss he admired had never taken him seriously from the start. In that case, didn't that make him look like a simp?

No, he refused to be such a bottomless simp. Simps, simps, they end up with nothing.

"I won't simp anymore."

The Rat wiped the tears from his eyes, speaking with a determined gaze.

From today onwards, he, the Rat, would absolutely not...

"Hey, you're falling behind. Hurry up and catch up. The next stop is the library."

Seeing the Rat dawdling behind him for some unknown reason, Wu Liang frowned slightly.

The Rat had been acting a bit strange since a while ago, muttering to himself about what?

"Huh? Okay! Coming, coming! Boss, I'm coming right over~!"

The Rat, who had been making solemn vows just moments ago, immediately put on a beaming smile and trotted after Wu Liang upon hearing Wu Liang call him.

Sigh, see, Boss really does care about me, otherwise, why would he suddenly call me like this?

Simp, simp. If you don't truly like someone, who would be willing to be a simp?

"Classmate Wu Liang, you don't seem to have many friends."

"Although you're very popular with the girls, you seem quite isolated among the boys."

Nan Zhu recalled the scene he had witnessed in the classroom not long ago.

Young Master Wu Liang's handsome appearance was indeed very popular with girls, but for some reason, the boys were extremely afraid of him.

It was as if Wu Liang were a demon; the other boys would never approach him first.

"If you don't mind, I'd like to be your friend. What do you think?"

Nan Zhu, who was halfway there, strode forward and stood in front of Wu Liang.

Since Wu Liang had no friends, he decided he would be his first friend.

Nan Zhu trusted his intuition. This seemingly arrogant young man in front of him was definitely someone who would make a great best friend.

(Rat: Are you blind? Am I not Young Master Wu Liang's friend? Or do you just not see me as a person??)

"I do mind."

Wu Liang's eye twitched as he looked at the earnest male lead in front of him.

If the game development team knew that the male lead they designed had become friends with the biggest villain Boss.

They would surely have some very interesting expressions on their faces...

Chapter 21: Nan Zhu is "Pure"

Library

If one were to call this place a library, it would be somewhat inaccurate, but to call it a royal chapel would be a bit too extravagant.

The pale and elegant walls were adorned with ancient vines, and towering bookshelves were arranged in a cross shape in the center of the hall.

Upon entering the hall, the first thing one would see was a large paulownia bonsai. It was said to be a seed planted by the Principal when she was young.
