Life-and-Death Contract? The Young Master Doesn't Want His Fiancée Anymore?

At Chu Yun's words, the smile on Bai Zhou's face slowly vanished.

Pushing Shen Qin aside, he looked straight into Chu Yun's eyes and said flatly:

"What right do you have to warn me?"

Along with Bai Zhou's voice, Chu Yun immediately felt a wave of pressure bearing down on him.

There was no need to ask. It was obviously coming from the five bodyguards of the Bai family's eldest young master.

Ding! The protagonist has suffered +555 mental damage. You have gained +100 Villain Destiny Points. 600 more points are needed to activate the Villain Grand Roulette!

Chu Yun clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth.

He knew that, as he was now, he had no way of fighting Bai Zhou.

Suppressing the resentment in his heart, he shifted his gaze to Lin Wei, who stood to the side with her head lowered.

Trying his best to calm himself, he said:

"Weiwei, what's wrong with you? Don't you usually hate spoiled rich kids like Bai Zhou who love throwing their weight around?"

"What made you decide to sign a life-and-death contract with him today?"

"Tell me. I'm your brother. No matter what it is, I can help you."

The protagonist's heartfelt words carried tremendous power under the enhancement of the protagonist's halo.

Lin Wei's body trembled slightly, and she instinctively raised her head.

Her eyes were already brimming with tears.

Seeing this, Bai Zhou knew he had to add fuel to the fire.

So he directly said to Chu Yun:

"What? Chu Yun, are you going to sign a life-and-death contract with Lin Wei too?"

"Of cour—" Before Chu Yun could finish the word "course,"

his voice abruptly stopped, and a complicated expression appeared on his face.

Bai Zhou knew Chu Yun far too well.

That aged voice must have sounded in his mind again.

It was surely saying:

"You cannot sign a life-and-death contract with her, because this contract can only be signed once!"

"Although I can sense the hidden talent within her, I cannot guarantee just how powerful that talent is."

"For the sake of your strength, you can only sign a partner contract with her!"

Because that was exactly how it had been written in the original story.

Naturally, Bai Zhou had it memorized by heart.

But the original Chu Yun did not have Bai Zhou's Peerless Sword Casket!

The unlimited number of life-and-death contracts was something even Chu Yun had dreamed of!

Looking at Chu Yun's stiff expression, Bai Zhou deliberately asked:

"What? You don't want to?"

Ding! The protagonist has suffered +696 mental damage. You have gained +100 Villain Destiny Points. 500 more points are needed to activate the Villain Grand Roulette!

After gritting his teeth and glaring at Bai Zhou, Chu Yun turned to Lin Wei and spoke with a trace of apology:

"Weiwei, we can sign a partner contract first, then nurture our feelings, and afterward we can..."

As Chu Yun spoke,

Lin Wei, who had raised her tearful eyes, froze for a moment before slowly lowering her head again.

Bai Zhou seized the moment and added:

"See that, Student Lin Wei? This is the Brother Chu Yun you've been thinking about day and night?"

"In the end, he still looks down on your E-rank talent!"

As he spoke, he even sighed with a regretful look on his face.

Truly, life was like a play, and it all depended on acting skills!

Ding! The protagonist has suffered +555 mental damage. You have gained +100 Villain Destiny Points. 400 more points are needed to activate the Villain Grand Roulette!

"Bai Zhou, shut up!" Chu Yun let out an urgent roar.

"Weiwei, don't listen to his nonsense. I didn't—"

"Enough!" Lin Wei suddenly raised her head and shouted.

It was as though she had used every ounce of strength in her body.

Her tear-filled eyes stared at Chu Yun, her voice icy.

"Chu Yun, I think I made myself very clear just now! Please stop pestering me. Is this really meaningful to you?"

"What?" Chu Yun's body shook violently.

Ding! The protagonist has suffered +999 mental damage. You have gained +100 Villain Destiny Points. 300 more points are needed to activate the Villain Grand Roulette!

"Weiwei, you..."

Before Chu Yun could continue,

Lin Wei actually took Bai Zhou's hand of her own accord.

Ding! The protagonist has suffered +888 mental damage. You have gained +100 Villain Destiny Points. 200 more points are needed to activate the Villain Grand Roulette!

Her voice softened. "Student Bai Zhou, let's begin the contract now."

"Of course!"

Bai Zhou nodded with a light laugh.

Without looking at Chu Yun or Shen Qin again, he led Lin Wei into the contract room.

"Young Master Bai! Don't!"

"Lin Wei! Lin Wei, what are you doing?!"

Shen Qin and Chu Yun's anxious figures were ultimately blocked outside by the teacher.

They could only watch helplessly as the doors symbolizing the start of the contract slowly closed.

And at the very instant the doors shut,

the onlookers outside instantly exploded into an uproar:

"Wait, Young Master Bai is really signing a life-and-death contract with that E-rank talent?"

"Oh my god, did Young Master Bai get hit in the head by... uh... I don't dare say it."

"E-rank talent? Could Lin Wei be a fox spirit reincarnated? Did she steal Young Master Bai's soul?"

"No way. She isn't even pretty. How could she compare to Campus Belle Shen?"

"Still, Campus Belle Shen must be devastated. She actually lost to an E-rank talentless nobody."

"That's still far better than Chu Yun, that bootlicker. So what if he awakened an SSS-rank super talent? Even an E-rank nobody doesn't want him! Hahaha!"

Ding! The protagonist's white moonlight has suffered +555 mental damage. You have gained +50 Villain Destiny Points. 150 more points are needed to activate the Villain Grand Roulette!

Ding! The protagonist has suffered +999 mental damage. You have gained +100 Villain Destiny Points. 50 more points are needed to activate the Villain Grand Roulette!

Ding! The protagonist's white moonlight has suffered +444 mental damage. You have gained +50 Villain Destiny Points. The Villain Grand Roulette has been activated. Would the host like to draw a reward?

Hearing the system notifications, Bai Zhou, who had just entered the contract room with Lin Wei, was stunned.

Well then!

How long had it even been since his first draw?

The second Grand Roulette had already activated?

Chu Yun's mental resilience was far too weak, wasn't it?

Still, those onlookers outside were really something. Was this what they meant by words being terrifying?

But what did that have to do with him?

Bai Zhou immediately ordered in his mind:

"Start the draw!"

The familiar roulette wheel appeared before Bai Zhou for the second time.

As it spun rapidly, a violet glow slowly lit up.

Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully drawn a purple reward: Mirror of Omniscience!

Note: Omni...

Bai Zhou had not even had time to read this line of information!

When a warm current suddenly swept through his entire body.

It instantly pulled Bai Zhou's attention away from the system space.

It was as though his entire body had entered a profound and mysterious state, leaving Bai Zhou briefly dazed.

But he also knew that the contract between him and Lin Wei had officially begun!

A contract required a process.

And the people outside certainly would not remain idle at a time like this.

The onlookers who continued voicing their doubts were one thing.

The Bai family bodyguards responsible for protecting the eldest young master had already gathered together.

Every one of them wore a nervous expression. One of them could not help asking the leader:

"Big Brother, isn't this wrong? Are we really letting the young master sign a life-and-death contract with that E-rank trash?"

"If the master finds out, won't he fly into a rage?"

The leader glanced at the man who had spoken and said:

"Then why don't you go stop the young master from making the contract now?"

The man immediately shrank his neck.

"I wouldn't dare... The young master has quite the temper..."

It was not just him. The other three were the same.

The leader frowned deeply and slowly said:

"It wouldn't be a big deal if the young master contracted an E-rank good-for-nothing... But he should never have signed a life-and-death contract!"

"Has the young master forgotten that he still has an engagement?!"

Upon hearing that, the four bodyguards who had been shrinking back immediately raised their heads.

As though suddenly enlightened:

"That's right! Damn! The young master's fiancée is..."

"Shut up!" The leader's cold snort made the man swallow the name that had reached his lips.

Then he waved a hand and pointed at the man who had first raised the question.

"Enough. There's no point discussing it here. Hurry back home and tell the master about this. See what he plans to do."

"Yes!"

The man answered, instantly turning into an afterimage and vanishing from where he stood.

And just as he disappeared,

Shen Qin, who had been anxiously pacing before the contract room doors, slowly turned her gaze toward Chu Yun, whose face was livid.

A clear trace of disdain appeared in her eyes, but she still gritted her teeth, walked toward Chu Yun, and said:

"Should we start our contract too?"
