After parting ways with the group, Shen Mengjie found an excuse to leave early.
Han Xiaojing and Wang Lijuan watched Shen Mengjie walk away nonchalantly and then returned to their dormitory.
Shen Mengjie didn’t have to wait long after leaving.
A heartfelt call rang out from not far behind her.
The voice, magnetic and gentle, sent a shiver down Shen Mengjie’s spine.
Quickly adjusting her emotions, she turned around.
She saw Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua striding towards her.
Throughout the entire process, both Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua breathed a great sigh of relief.
“Thank goodness, thank goodness, Mengjie, you’re alright,” Ye Liangchen said, clenching his fists tightly. “If Long Aotian dared to harm you, I would never forgive him!”
Xue Shaohua didn’t speak, but instead, gazed at Shen Mengjie with eyes full of deep emotion, then dramatically flicked his hair to reveal the earring on his left ear.
He always believed that a gaze full of affection could surpass any words.
What’s more, Shen Mengjie had feelings for him too.
“What are you two doing here?” Shen Mengjie asked softly, raising her slightly misty eyes. After a moment of hesitation, she continued in a low voice, “Actually, Long Aotian didn’t do anything to me.”
This was her response to the message Ye Liangchen had sent her earlier.
“No, you’re saying this because you don’t really know Long Aotian. His heart is as black as coal,” Ye Liangchen said in a deep voice. “If I hadn’t been here today to intimidate Long Aotian, who knows what outrageous things he might have done to you.”
“Mengjie, believe me, a person who forced my treasure girl, who stole my white moonlight and little childhood sweetheart, such a person is utterly heartless!”
Xue Shaohua, who had been silent, couldn’t help but speak up, “I can vouch for this. Long Aotian once beat us up for no reason. He’s really bad, don’t be deceived by his appearance.”
It was a fact that Long Aotian had hit them, so Xue Shaohua’s words carried a particular sincerity.
Shen Mengjie looked at the two of them with amusement, her words emboldened by the alcohol, “You always say how bad Long Aotian is, how he stole the girls who originally liked you.”
“You always say Long Aotian has ill intentions towards me and that you’ll protect me, but what have you done?”
“If Long Aotian is really as bad as you say, if you truly want to protect me from harm, shouldn’t you do something? Or are you just all talk?”
“To be honest, you’re not even as good as Long Aotian. At least from my interactions with him, he doesn’t seem as bad as you make him out to be.”
After saying this, Shen Mengjie let out a self-mocking chuckle, then turned away, disappointed.
The more disappointed Shen Mengjie appeared, the deeper the impact on Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua’s hearts.
This was indeed the case.
Ye Liangchen and Xue Shaohua were indeed anxious upon hearing this. They exchanged a glance and then hurried forward to say earnestly, "If I already have a plan to deal with Long Aotian, would you be willing to cooperate with us?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Mengjie gently lifted her chin, her slightly tipsy and dreamy eyes showing a hint of interest.
Seeing this, Ye Liangchen continued, "Just like I said earlier, you can pretend to be involved with Long Aotian, and when he truly falls for you, you can then come into my arms, turning all of Long Aotian's expectations into mere bubbles. This way, we can break Long Aotian's psychological defenses!"
Xue Shaohua looked at Ye Liangchen in confusion, coming into his arms?
How was this so different from the plan he had previously told him?
Shen Mengjie chuckled softly, "But hasn't Long Aotian already forced your 'treasure girl'? Even if he doesn't get me, he still has what you call the 'treasure girl' by his side, and perhaps even a 'white moonlight' and 'little green plum'. I don't believe Long Aotian's psychological defenses are that fragile."
Ye Liangchen slowly shook his head, straightened his back, and looked deeply into Shen Mengjie's eyes. "How could I let you act alone?"
"During your pretended involvement with Long Aotian, I will use a third-person perspective to capture all the falseness Long Aotian shows towards you."
"I will expose Long Aotian's ugly face to all the girls he has deceived, helping them see his true evil nature. From then on, everyone will understand what kind of person Long Aotian really is."
"In the end, Long Aotian will not only lose you but will also lose those kind-hearted, innocent girls he once deceived."
"This is the final step to break Long Aotian's psychological defenses!"
"This is the ultimate fate for the demon that is Long Aotian!"
After finishing, Ye Liangchen looked pleadingly at Shen Mengjie, "With your help, we can prevent more kind-hearted, innocent girls from being deceived by Long Aotian. Will you help us?"
"You are not Long Aotian's first target, and certainly not his last..."
Shen Mengjie feigned confusion for a moment before seriously looking up at Ye Liangchen, "Is everything you said true?"
"Truer than gold," Ye Liangchen replied with fervor, almost ready to swear to the heavens.
Upon seeing this, Shen Mengjie's pupils flickered, "Are you confident that those girls who see through Long Aotian's true nature will willingly leave him?"
"If it truly is as you say, saving those deceived girls, then I am willing."
Even Shen Mengjie herself didn't realize how tightly she clenched her fist and how much her heart raced as she said this...
"I know what you're worried about; you're afraid of all efforts going to waste," Ye Liangchen smiled confidently and flicked his hair, "I am confident, because no one wants to be deceived forever, right?"
"And no one would want to be repeatedly betrayed, right?"
Although Hu Yuying was kind-hearted and innocent, Ye Liangchen simply couldn’t believe she could tolerate Long Aotian’s fickleness without feeling heartbroken!
It’s widely known that a girl’s emotional defenses are at their weakest when she’s heartbroken.
If he could seize the opportunity during this vulnerable period and make Hu Yuying realize that he was the one who had always been there for her, the one who had always wanted to save her…
By then, if something were to happen between him and Hu Yuying, wouldn’t it just fall into place naturally?
Besides, he had Hu Yuying’s business plan in his possession…
That’s why Ye Liangchen felt rather confident.
Shen Mengjie, on the other hand, looked at Ye Liangchen, but her heart was filled with sympathy for Long Aotian.
She had always believed that there’s no such thing as a cat that doesn’t stray.
Long Aotian was no exception, because deep down, they were the same kind of person.
Perhaps it was the repeated setbacks she had faced with Long Aotian that fueled her competitive spirit.
Or maybe she simply wanted to drag someone like Long Aotian down with her into the abyss.
Whatever the reason, she had never thought of herself as a good person, and she genuinely wanted to see whether the bond between Long Aotian and his little girlfriend was truly strong enough.
After all, if something can be taken away, it was never worth holding onto in the first place…
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork.

I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
