Ye Liangchen gazed deeply at Hu Yuying. She was still as beautiful, as lovely, and as much the treasure girl he remembered. So why was she saying such cruel words to him now?
He let out a self-mocking laugh, then shook his head helplessly. "I know this might be hard for you to accept right away, but this is the truth."
"The 'Long Ge' you mentioned—if I’m not mistaken, that’s Long Aotian, isn’t it?"
"Do you know what kind of person he is? Do you know he’s manipulating you with PUA tactics?"
At this point, Ye Liangchen smiled bitterly and shook his head again.
"No, you don’t know. You don’t know anything. You’re too pure, too kind to see the darkness in people’s hearts..."
"He just wants to drag you into the mud because that’s the only way he can completely possess you."
"Someone like him is just a playboy. Once he’s had enough of you, he’ll move on to someone else. And when that happens, you’ll be left abandoned. Can’t you see that? Can’t you wake up?"
"It’s only me. Only I truly care about you, wanting to pull you out of the darkness. I’m your little sun of redemption..."
Ye Liangchen grew more and more impassioned, unable to control himself. His fear and hatred of Long Aotian had carried over from his past life to this one.
He could spend an entire day badmouthing Long Aotian without repeating a single insult.
But he failed to notice the growing anger in Hu Yuying’s eyes.
She shoved him hard. "Don’t you dare talk about him like that."
Even though her body trembled slightly and her eyes glistened with unshed tears, she didn’t back down.
She just pursed her lips and glared at Ye Liangchen, refusing to let him speak ill of Long Ge.
It was strange. Hu Yuying was the type who would endure being bullied without fighting back.
Before, when Ye Liangchen had repeatedly pestered her, she had only asked him to stop following her, to stop bothering her. The most threatening thing she had said was that she would tell Long Ge about him.
But now, just hearing Ye Liangchen badmouth Long Aotian, she couldn’t stop herself from pushing him.
Watching Ye Liangchen stumble back two steps, Hu Yuying’s trembling grew more intense. She stared at her hands in shock, but she didn’t regret it.
Ye Liangchen could say whatever he wanted about her, but he couldn’t badmouth Long Aotian.
If she had the chance to do it again, she would still push him.
Ye Liangchen was equally stunned. He hadn’t expected—no, he truly hadn’t expected—that Hu Yuying would actually push him.
"You pushed me? Do you know who you’re pushing? You’re pushing the one who wants to save you from your dark life."
Hu Yuying was scared. This was the first time she had ever pushed someone, and her hands and feet still felt numb. But she stood her ground and said firmly, "Don’t you dare talk about Long Ge, or... or I’ll push you again!"
Hearing this, Ye Liangchen staggered. "You pushed me for Long Aotian? Hu Yuying, open your eyes! What’s so great about Long Aotian? All he does is bully you, force you. I’m the one who’s always been protecting you."
"Even if I haven’t done it openly, my heart has always been protecting you. Don’t you understand my good intentions?"
"I don’t understand, but I know Long Ge treats me well," Hu Yuying said, her voice trembling like a kitten with its fur bristled.
Though she was on the verge of tears, she held them back, hiding her trembling hands in her sleeves. "Long Ge is the best person I’ve ever met. I won’t let you speak badly of him."
"Ugh..." Ye Liangchen clutched his chest, staggering back another two steps. He looked at Hu Yuying with sorrow and pity. "How can you say that? Do you know how much it hurts me to hear you say that?"
"Long Aotian only treats you well because he wants your body. Don’t you see that?"
"His kindness has an ulterior motive. He just wants to enjoy your body. But I’m different. I just want to treat you well... Ugh..."
Before he could finish, Hu Yuying pushed him again. Taking advantage of his unsteady footing, she ran past him toward her home.
Her phone was at home, under the pillow on her bed. If he dared to bother her again, she would do as Long Ge had taught her—call the police!
Long Ge treated her well because she was his little follower, not because he lusted after her body. Ye Liangchen was just spouting nonsense.
This time, Ye Liangchen didn’t chase after her. He just stood there, staring blankly at Hu Yuying’s retreating figure.
A moment later, when Hu Yuying had completely disappeared from his sight, Ye Liangchen finally seemed to snap out of his daze.
He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with unrelenting hatred.
He didn’t hate his treasure girl.
The real culprit wasn’t the pure and lovely treasure girl—it was Long Aotian, that beast!
If it weren’t for that beast feeling threatened by him and forcing himself on his treasure girl, how could she have treated him like this?
"To think that in my past life, you targeted me, and in this life, you’re still targeting me!"
"Hahaha, I’m laughing. I’m really laughing now!"
"I’ll expose your true nature to my treasure girl. I’ll make her see what kind of beast you really are!"
Not hating the treasure girl didn’t mean he wasn’t angry.
Long Aotian had forced himself on his treasure girl. He deserved to die. He really deserved to die.
Once the treasure girl saw Long Aotian for who he really was and came to her senses, he would still save her.
But the love he gave her would only be a fraction of what it once was.
He might even strip her of the title "treasure girl."
"Don’t blame me. Even though this situation was caused by me, you didn’t believe me. You even pushed me for Long Aotian. You deserve some punishment."
"Can’t be helped. That’s just who I am—Ye Liangchen, the man who loves and hates with all his heart."
With that thought, Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, regretting that one misstep had led to a series of mistakes.
He had only wanted to get closer to his treasure girl earlier, but it had backfired.
Perhaps this was the butterfly effect of his rebirth.
But he wouldn’t make the same mistake again.
He exhaled slowly, took out his phone, and snapped a photo of his shadow.
[I don’t regret meeting you, but I do feel a bit of regret. After all this time together, we never had a proper goodbye. It just hurts sometimes—the knight who’s about to step down.]
After finishing the caption, he posted it to his QQ space...
[Oh! My dear old friends, let me see who hasn’t lit up all five stars, urged for updates, or sent some power. My pointy leather shoes are itching for action. Oh, and don’t forget to add this to your bookshelf!]
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
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. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. 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?
