Villain: After I died, all the heroines cried themselves to sleep.

Xu Xiaojin accepted Ms. Xiaolin's request and came to find Luo Chuan.

After all, today is the competition day for the second-year students.

Luo Chuan, however, made an excuse to slip out of the venue.

So Xu Xiaojin used the [SkyNet Connection] to find her way here.

This was not the first time she had searched for Luo Chuan.

In the past, Luo Chuan disappeared without a trace, and Xu Xiaojin had tried her best to find his whereabouts in unknown places.

Unfortunately, she gained nothing each time.

Especially the last one.

Luo Chuan's disappearance left her feeling a sense of indescribable confusion.

All the changes she made in the past were inseparable from Luo Chuan's help.

Now it seems to have lost its meaning.

She put her glasses back on.

Fortunately, this time is different.

Xu Xiaojin was able to sense Luo Chuan's location.

As she moved in that direction, her perception became clearer and clearer.

My mood also became cheerful.

She finally found it.

Luo Chuan is probably around the corner ahead.

Xu Xiaojin seemed to remember something and suddenly slowed down.

She quickly calmed herself down and tidied her glasses and hair.

Then they slowly turned onto a side road.

then.

Then I saw Luo Chuan, laughing and playing with a tomboy.

Xu Xiaojin stood there, stunned.

Of course, she could tell that the tomboy was Wen Zhinian.

Her best friend, with whom she once made a promise.

But now.

Her best friend from the past is now getting along very well with her best friend in a place she doesn't know about.

The smile on the other person's face was as radiant as when they played together as children.

Xu Xiaojin's feelings immediately became complicated.

She should have understood.

Each character has their own life.

Luo Chuan and Wen Zhinian are both outstanding individuals, so it's not surprising that they got together in private.

As their friend, she should offer her blessings.

But she still couldn't help feeling a dull ache in her heart.

It felt like being betrayed twice.

Despite being her childhood friend, Wen Zhinian refused to acknowledge him and instead established a private relationship with Luo Chuan through her.

And then there's Luo Chuan, who promised to help me, but now he's associating with Wen Zhinian.

Is this really for my own benefit?

Why isolate yourself?

Was she just supposed to watch helplessly as the two of them discarded her like useless trash?

For a moment, Xu Xiaojin had the thought of backing down.

But soon.

A strong sense of resentment welled up in my heart again.

She is no longer the helpless Xu Xiaojin of the past.

Xu Xiaojin pursed her lips.

He spoke first.

Even she probably didn't expect that.

I can't believe I said such sarcastic things.

"I'm sorry, perhaps I've come at the wrong time."

But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Luo Chuan's reply.

"No, you've come at just the right time."

……

When Luo Chuan first saw Xu Xiaojin, he didn't realize anything was wrong.

Until I remembered Wen Zhinian sitting next to me.

He suddenly felt a jolt.

As everyone knows, Hsu Hsiao-Chin and Wen Chih-Nian are childhood sweethearts with a very good relationship.

From Xu Xiaojin's perspective, she's currently just messing around with Wen Zhinian.

This is definitely a case of stealing someone else's love.

Should I say that I truly deserve to be called a villain?

Given this trend, it's almost certain that Xu Xiaojin, this woman of good fortune, will stab herself in the back.

Then look at Wen Zhinian, who is still stunned.

His eyes revealed the guilt and embarrassment of being caught in bed with another woman.

I sent her the message, "I'm having an affair right now."

Luo Chuan's mind raced.

Actually, it's not difficult to explain clearly.

The problem is...

Why should he explain?

Xu Xiaojin was originally an indispensable member of his villainous plan.

Instead of taking this opportunity, we should use Wen Zhinian to coerce the other party into joining.

That's what I was thinking.

The system notification tone suddenly sounded.

[Target progress 30%]

[By discovering your secret relationship with your childhood friend, the woman of destiny begins to realize the feelings hidden deep in her heart, and her thinking gradually undergoes a transformation.]

Holy crap?

Luo Chuan was a little confused.

At that moment, Xu Xiaojin's barbed voice rang out.

"I'm sorry, perhaps I've come at the wrong time."

"No, you've come at just the right time."

Luo Chuan blurted out his name.

After receiving the system prompts, he fully understood everything.

His playful banter with Wen Zhinian deeply stimulated Xu Xiaojin's fighting spirit.

To persuade the other party to make changes in order to win back Wen Zhinian from him.

Under the surprised gazes of Wen Zhinian and Xu Xiaojin.

Luo Chuan walked forward casually.

"Xu Xiaojin, I was just about to talk to you, but I didn't expect you to come here by yourself."

"...Did you need something from me?"

Xu Xiaojin, influenced by Luo Chuan, looked over in confusion.

"That's right, but this isn't the place to talk. Let's go back and discuss it."

As Luo Chuan finished speaking, he turned to look at Wen Zhinian.

Wen Zhinian also came to her senses.

She resumed her older sisterly demeanor and greeted Xu Xiaojin awkwardly.

He immediately forced an awkward smile.

"Well, now that Xiao Jin is here, I should be leaving too."

I said goodbye to the two of them.

Wen Zhinian turned and left, disappearing into the intersection as if fleeing.

Only Luo Chuan and Xu Xiaojin remained in the same spot.

The dim streetlights gradually came on.

Luo Chuan and Xu Xiaojin were walking back to the hotel.

The atmosphere was somewhat silent.

Luo Chuan felt extremely uncomfortable.

He quickly started a conversation to break the silence.

"Speaking of which, why did you come looking for me?"

"You didn't answer Ms. Kobayashi's call, so she sent me instead."

Xu Xiaojin answered truthfully, glancing at Luo Chuan.

As if nothing had happened.

"I only found out now that you and Wen Zhinian are so close."

"After all, she's your childhood friend. I said I'd help you settle things, so naturally I had to come and confirm."

Luo Chuan was prepared and answered calmly.

"You...you know?"

Xu Xiaojin was very surprised.

She never mentioned this to Luo Chuan.

"Don't underestimate my intelligence network."

Luo Chuan curled up the corners of his mouth and looked at Xu Xiaojin with a mischievous grin.

"You care about her a lot, don't you? Are you afraid something might happen between me and her?"

"..."

Xu Xiaojin remained silent.

……

Back to the hotel.

Ms. Kobayashi had been waiting in the lobby for quite some time.

She stared at Luo Chuan with resentment.

They were arrested and taken back to their room.

Luo Chuan listened to Teacher Lin's lectures and complaints.

She's complaining about how tiring work is and how trivial things in life are.

Then Luo Chuan gave him a hard time.

I felt like dying.

Luo Chuan could only force a smile and casually gave the doll he had caught to Teacher Lin.

"Are you trying to bribe me with these dolls?"

Teacher Lin was both amused and exasperated.

But she still accepted Luo Chuan's kindness.

They left Ms. Kobayashi's room looking disheveled.

Luo Chuan turned around and went to see Xu Xiaojin.

"Let me be frank, I'm planning to create a big scandal and ruin this martial arts competition."

He spoke frankly with Hsu Hsiao-chin on the spot.

Xu Xiaojin looked completely bewildered.

Because Luo Chuan's words were so outrageous, she didn't react for a moment.

Luo Chuan knew that this time he was doing something bad, unlike in the past, and Xu Xiaojin might not be willing to help him.

So he immediately pulled out his trump card.

"Wen Zhinian has agreed to work with me and provide assistance."

Luo Chuan said it casually.

It sounds casual, but it's actually a rather shameless threat.

The implication is that Wen Zhinian is in his hands, and if Xu Xiaojin doesn't want him to become a puppet of the villain, then she should join him.

as predicted.

Xu Xiaojin's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

"I need your help, but of course you can choose to refuse."

Luo Chuan pressed his advantage and continued speaking.

He casually added insult to injury.

"But in that case, it would just be Wen Zhinian and me together..."

"I'm in!"

Xu Xiaojin resolutely refused to speak to the railway.

She looked up and stared directly at Luo Chuan, her gaze extremely serious and determined.

"I don't want to be left behind like before, and I don't want to fall behind or lose to anyone."

"Heh, very good, I like your awareness."

Luo Chuan nodded seriously.

I felt quite emotional.

She willingly fell into the hands of the villain in order to save her best friend.

What a great spirit of sacrifice!

It's just a pity about Xu Xiaojin.

Under his own coercion, he ultimately embarked on the irreversible path of becoming a villain's henchman.

It even implicated my most important friend.

Now let's look at Luo Chuan himself.

In order to complete the system's tasks, they resorted to despicable means to get something for nothing.

First, she used Xu Xiaojin to coerce Wen Zhinian, and then she used Wen Zhinian in turn to coerce Xu Xiaojin.

He made the two of them victims of his evil plan.

He's gone too far down the path of villainy.

……

The next morning.

Luo Chuan still arrived at the alley where he had met Wen Zhinian.

Wen Zhinian surprisingly did not break her promise.

Luo Chuan teased.

"I thought you wouldn't come because of Xu Xiaojin."

"You're planning to get Koyu to help you sabotage things, aren't you? If that's the case, then I can't leave even more."

Wen Zhinian spoke with conviction.

She and Xu Xiaojin are very close sisters.

They might even be thinking of rescuing Xu Xiaojin from the evil villain Luo Chuan.

Wen Zhinian glanced behind Luo Chuan.

"Oh dear, didn't Xu Xiaojin come with you?"

She said she had something to do and asked me to come over first.

Luo Chuan shrugged.

As they were talking.

Xu Xiaojin's voice came from the alley entrance.

"I'm sorry I'm late."

Luo Chuan and Wen Zhinian looked in the direction of the sound.

His face immediately showed surprise.

Her smooth black hair fell naturally, and her light skirt fluttered in the wind.

What came into view was not some country girl with braids and black-rimmed glasses.

She is clearly a fresh, quiet, and beautiful girl with long, straight black hair.

Xu Xiaojin was initially a little uncomfortable.

But not long after.

She took a deep breath, gently tucked her hair behind her ear, and confidently raised her head.

She mustered her courage and walked up to Wen Zhinian.

Face your former friends directly.

Chinen, let's get to know each other again.

"Okay, Violet."

Wen Zhinian smiled slightly.

"..."

Luo Chuan couldn't help but look at Xu Xiaojin with newfound respect.

She is equally outstanding in both appearance and temperament.

Xu Xiaojin went to such lengths to win back Wen Zhinian.

Perhaps this is what is meant by the bond of friendship.

That's what they say.

There is still one question left regarding Luo Chuan.

Why is he in the middle?
