Transmigrated as the male lead's roommate's vicious girlfriend

This unprecedented sense of loss of control and fear kept him from calming down for even a second.

Ning Xi bit her lip, tears glistening on her face, and remained silent, which made He Kezhou's eyes darken.

He didn't give Ning Xi a chance to dodge the question: "What would you do if I weren't here tonight?"

She didn't answer, so He Kezhou answered for her.

"In a better scenario, you'll call me on your way to the club."

"But what if my phone isn't with me, or I don't answer your call?"

He spoke very softly.

"Have you thought about what would happen to you if I couldn't get here in time?"

His voice betrayed his undisguised fear and panic.

He Kezhou stared at the dimming light in her eyes, and said slowly and deliberately, "Ning Xi, you can't save anyone. You might even ruin yourself."

All of Ningxi's grievances and fears burst forth at this moment.

He Kezhou's words were cruel, but they were facts that could be foreseen at a glance.

Tonight, Ning Xi clearly understood how weak and vulnerable she was.

Without He Kezhou, she could neither save nor protect anyone.

He Kezhou put Ning Xi down and opened the car door for her to get in.

Ning Xi took several deep breaths before she could finally speak, "He Kezhou, I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble again."

Without He Kezhou's protection, her face would be a disaster.

"But I don't know what to do. I don't know why I've attracted so many rotten people..."

"I didn't want to, I didn't want to..."

She choked up with sobs as she spoke.

She can do without her pretty face, and she can do without her good figure.

Even if she were given an ordinary or even somewhat ugly face, she would feel it would be better than what she has now.

Her emotions completely collapsed.

He Kezhou didn't wipe away her tears. He leaned against the car door, bent down, and looked into her aggrieved, scared, and helpless eyes.

He didn't hide his anger and rage.

"I'm not afraid of any trouble you cause. No matter how big the trouble you get into, I'll cover for you."

Ning Xi's eyes were filled with self-blame and guilt for causing trouble, and he was so angry that he wanted to bite her hard.

Bite her until she cries.

He bit her so hard that she never showed that look of self-reproach and guilt again.

But he couldn't bear to part with it.

He Kezhou pressed his fingertips firmly against Ning Xi's swollen eyelids: "What I'm afraid of is you getting hurt."

"Ning Xi, in the future, before you make decisions, please think about me first, okay?"

"I'm your boyfriend. I'll go crazy if you get hurt."

Ning Xi's tears, which she had just managed to control, started falling uncontrollably again.

"For my sake, please learn to prioritize your own safety, okay?"

"You should use your kindness and courage in the right place."

He Kezhou's words contained no accusation, but rather an overwhelming sense of insecurity.

Ning Xi's heart suddenly clenched as she was looked at by He Kezhou's dark eyes, which were filled with insecurity. A subtle, dull ache rose in her heart.

She frightened He Kezhou.

He Kezhou's words brought tears to Ning Xi's eyes like a never-ending stream.

He Kezhou knew she needed to vent tonight.

Ning Xi cried out all her grievances and fears so that she wouldn't think about anything else.

He Kezhou only patted her back gently when she was crying so hard she was about to faint.

I thought I could just let Ningxi cry like that.

He failed.

He Kezhou pulled Ning Xi into his arms, staring at her soft hair whorl: "Have you remembered what I told you?"

Ning Xi's eyes were blurry with tears, and she was sobbing uncontrollably.

She felt incredibly ashamed of herself in her current state.

She nodded to He Kezhou, sobbing.

He Kezhou raised his hand, pinched Ning Xi's chin, and made her look into his eyes: "Your boyfriend is amazing. He can solve any problem for you."

Ning Xi never questioned what He Kezhou said.

"He Kezhou, what would I do without you?"

Her voice, still heavy with tears, was muffled and soft, trembling slightly.

Ning Xi's words soothed He Kezhou's irritability, anger, and resentment throughout the night.

He shielded Ning Xi's head and tucked her into the back seat: "Then don't imagine that you don't have me."

He will always be by Ning Xi's side.

……

Four o'clock in the morning, in the port city.

He Zhixian, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up from his bed by his bodyguard and secretary. His morning grumpiness was so strong that it was as if he could turn the whole bed upside down.

Her silk nightgown slid down her shoulders, revealing her smooth, full shoulders and her flowing, full bust. The delicate silk fabric draped over her waist, and her skin glowed with a cool, translucent light under the lamp, making her curves dazzling and captivating.

He Zhixian's voice was hoarse with displeasure at being woken up: "Luan Shuo, you'd better come and climb into my bed, otherwise, you know what the consequences will be if you wake me up."

Luan Shuo restrained himself from looking at her. "I have an important phone call."

The screen of his phone, which was lit up, showed that he was on a call.

He Zhixian knew perfectly well that no matter how urgent the matter was for others, Luan Shuo could still maintain proper etiquette. But when it came to He Kezhou's phone call, no matter how strict the rules or how inappropriate the time, they were all meaningless. Luan Shuo would disregard everything and enter her room just to ensure that He Kezhou's call could be answered in time.

He Zhixian lazily propped himself up on the pillow, looking at his upright and unmoved demeanor, and sneered: "No matter how important the phone call is, it's not as important as my sleep."

That's what she said, but she propped herself up and reached out to Luan Shuo.

Luan Shuo handed over the phone.

He Kezhou could hear their conversation clearly.

Upon hearing that He Zhixian had woken up, he didn't waste any words.

When He Zhixian heard that He Kezhou was going to Xincheng so late just to get her to teach a few people a lesson, he thought to himself that these people should preferably be some important figures.

When she saw the information in Luan Shuo's file, she laughed in anger.

"The Wen family is rich in Xincheng, but outside of Xincheng, they're nothing. And what are the Cheng family?"

Do you really need her, with such a few low-class people?

Anyone below could easily handle this matter.

He Kezhou, however, arranged for He Zhixian to personally go to the new city.

She scoffed, "Do I look like I have nothing better to do?"

She had just stabilized the situation in the port city, and tonight was the most restful night's sleep she had all week.

He Kezhou's words are the highest standard for the entire He family.

Even if he asked her to come over right now, she wouldn't be able to say "no".

He Zhixian hung up the phone, and in a fit of rage, grabbed the pillow next to him and threw it at Luan Shuo.

Luan Shuo didn't dodge the pillow and took the hit squarely.

The pillow fell onto the carpet, and he bent down to pick it up.

He Zhixian's gaze fell on his straight, long legs and pert waist and hips.

Seeing the pillow he handed her, she lazily stretched out her arm and handed the phone back to him.

Luan Shuo didn't look at her; his gaze was fixed on the floor of the room as he reached for his phone.

The next second, He Zhixian threw the phone behind his back, grabbed the man's wrist, and used all his strength to pull him toward the bed.

Luan Shuo remained completely still.
