Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 424 Aren't you bullying an honest turtle?!

Xie Cangling shook her head repeatedly, tears welling in her eyes, thinking to herself, "How could I do all this to compete with you for Huai Ge... If we're caught in front of you, Huai Ge will definitely realize something's wrong once he calms down..."

If I really wanted to run away by myself, why would I be in such a hurry? I could have planned it more discreetly and thoroughly.

Little Green Tea: If I really wanted to steal Huai Ge's heart... you guys would never be able to catch me!
"Xi Yu, if you want to seal your heart and lock away your love, then I'll do the same with you!" Xie Cangling wiped away her tears and said firmly, "I will prove to you with my actions that I'm really not here to steal your man!"

"Is there any point in saying all this now?" Jiang Xiyu said coldly, "You've already taken advantage of her, and then you wipe your mouth and say you didn't actually want to..."

You're bullying an honest turtle!

"I..." Xie Cangling sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Xiyu, I hurt you... I know you won't believe me no matter what I say now, but please don't misunderstand Brother Huaige... and please don't miss this great opportunity."

"My original goal was to ignite the situation and force Brother Huaige to make a choice... Although the current situation has deviated somewhat from my control, the general direction should still remain unchanged."

"Right now, Brother Huaige is feeling lost and anxious. If you give him a way out, soften your attitude, and stay by his side, you'll surely be able to seize the opportunity to become the only person in Brother Huaige's heart..."

"Stop talking!" Xiao Jiang said, her eyes red and her voice choked with sobs. "I don't want to give him a way out... Why is it always me who gives him a way out... Do you know how sad I am?"

"Now, whenever I close my eyes, I see the image of his engine oil dripping from your racetrack onto the ground... and the scene of him watching you in front of me... your voice, your breathing..."

"So you don't need to say anything more, I won't give him a way out."

Xie Cangling remained silent for a long time, finally letting out a soft sigh as she poured out all her unspoken words. She knew that her "Heaven and Earth Together" technique had directly shattered the seemingly harmonious but secretly turbulent battlefield. Yet, despite paying such a high price, her best friend hadn't gained even the slightest benefit.

Should I really not help Xiyu? But if I don't intervene, Xiyu might be plotted against and killed by Yan Qiuxi and the others.

Or perhaps... my previous strategy was wrong? I shouldn't have fully assisted her, but rather let her have a taste of the benefits after I had taken over?

How foolish of you, Xie Cangling! One wrong step has led to eternal regret!

"I'm sorry... Xiyu, from now on... I won't appear in front of you and Brother Huaige anymore." The little green tea said with tears in her eyes, "From now on... take care of yourself..."

Knowing that she was no longer suitable to appear before Duan Huaige, she had no choice but to temporarily avoid the limelight. All her painstaking planning, including enduring a beating, ultimately benefited Yan Qiuxi.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at Yan Qiuxi's shining eyes and the amused expression on her face when the incident happened, you can tell that she didn't fall for the trap at all, and even turned the tables on the other side!

Yan Qiuxi: Next, it's my turn! I'll prove who the world's number one base-stealing player is in this match. Is fate truly unchangeable? Qin Shuangjiang got the first blood, but still couldn't turn the tide.

She is destined to be his fiancée; no one can take her place. Anyone who does will be punished by the gods.
Watching Xiao Xie turn and slowly walk away, dragging her lonely figure, Jiang Xiyu's expression unconsciously shifted. A little figure carrying a tortoise shell seemed to appear in her heart, earnestly advising her:

You're so silly, Xi Yu! What Cang Ling said actually makes sense! If it weren't for this huge, chaotic scene, how could Qin Shuangjiang and Yan Qiuxi's favorability have dropped? And how could she have ended up having a cold war with Xiao Duan?

The Cold War was the perfect opportunity to overtake others! Do you really want to betray Cangling's good intentions?

Yes, she was Ai Guocao, and this was the second time she'd been targeted like a puff in front of you, but she did it all for you! Such a loyal and devoted best friend, and you not only didn't cherish her, but you actually broke off relations with her!?

But soon a new little figure appeared, shedding its tortoise shell and breaking its shackles, its body emanating black mist: Stop spreading your lies! She's deceiving me! If she's really as innocent as she claims, why didn't she tell me beforehand?

Turtle Man: Would you agree to such an outrageous plan if I told you in advance? Everyone knows how bad your acting is, okay? I bet you'd burst out laughing when we caught you cheating.

Darkened villain: Shut up! This can't even break your shell? I bet you won't believe it until you see their child calling you auntie!

With a heart full of conflicting emotions, Xiao Jiang swallowed the words of farewell that were about to come out of her mouth, replaced by a touch of sadness.

She's already so amazing to you, and you still feel sorry for her! Jiang Xiyu, you can't keep being so naive and innocent!
I must turn evil! This time, no one can stop me from joining the camp of the demoness... oh no, my dear master!
……

On the other side, Duan Huaige lay on the bed staring at the ceiling, lost in thought, recalling the bits and pieces of his journey. He had been so immersed in this comfort zone of having women on both sides that he seemed to have really forgotten his original intentions.

My buddy initially thought he'd be with one person for life, but all his future ex-girlfriends were just too good, so he unconsciously developed the idea that he wanted them all.

But... if you clearly have such thoughts, why haven't you taken any concrete action? You just let several young ladies stage a fierce battle for the title of fiancée, without ever telling them with conviction: You don't need to fight, you are all my wings!

If I had actually said it, all the pressure would have fallen on me alone, and perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way.
Is it because of fear? Fear of change, fear of losing them by saying such shameless things... so you deceive yourself, telling yourself that this is the best way?
Duan Huaige began to reflect on his actions. At this moment, his mind was in turmoil, and Qin Shuangjiang's last words kept echoing in his mind:
What do I really want?
When Duan's parents returned home, they found that Duan Huaige had been locked in his room and wouldn't come out. The other girls had also sent messages one after another explaining that they had something to do and had to leave without saying goodbye. Even if they were stupid, Duan's parents could guess that their son's relationship was in big trouble.

"What a mess... I have to argue with so many potential daughters-in-law all at once," Duan's mother sighed. "This little rascal is really giving me no peace of mind as his mother."

Do I still have to step in to maintain the balance? As Duan's mother thought about it, she couldn't help but take out her phone to send a message to Duan Huaige's fans to comfort them, but Duan's father stopped her.

"Wait a minute, I feel this matter... isn't that simple."
