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

……

In the penthouse suite of the Pinglushan Hotel in Gangcheng, Ke Xun leaned back on a leather sofa. His tailored suit accentuated his tall and straight figure, but his long, slender hands gripped his phone tightly, his knuckles turning a cold white. His eyes swirled with an undisguised malice.

On the phone screen are street scene photos of the old car dealership in the new city.

Even if He Kezhou's face were burned to ashes, he would still recognize it.

His fingertip slid down to the next picture—

He Kezhou stood in the chaotic vegetable market, a cartoon Ultraman backpack slung over his shoulder, his gaze fixed on a smiling young woman standing in front of a vegetable stall not far away.

The corners of her eyes and brows had a gentleness that Ke Xun had never seen before.

The He Kezhou of the past was ruthless and merciless, his defenses impenetrable, as if nothing in this world could restrain him. He couldn't believe that he was now indulging in such a mundane world.

This news excited him even more than finding He Kezhou.

Ke Xun let out a low laugh, but the smile didn't reach his eyes; instead, it was tinged with icy coldness.

After looking through all the photos that had been sent, he turned his gaze to the woman who had made He Kezhou willing to live an ordinary life.

He stared intently at the woman's face, like a key unlocking his long-dormant malice.

Ke Xun laughed so hard his shoulders trembled, a cold light spreading across his eyes as he spoke mockingly, each word distinct: "He Kezhou, you actually have a weakness..."

He murmured softly, the last syllable carrying a bloodthirsty pleasure.

The cold air from the hotel air conditioner swept over his back, but it couldn't dispel the heat in his heart.

All the years of dormancy and forbearance have now transformed into the excitement of the hunt.

He got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, where the neon lights of the port city cast dappled shadows on the glass.

"Taking your life won't be easy, but taking this woman's life is a piece of cake."

"I want you to taste the pain of losing your loved one."

His fingertips lightly traced the glass, as if he had already seized the prey by the throat.

……

Ning Xi made an appointment with Teacher Dai for lunch on Tuesday.

Dai Yilan didn't stand on ceremony with Ning Xi and readily agreed.

She was getting a little bored at home.

Since the near-accident on Saturday night, she didn't leave the house except for going to work on Sunday; she didn't go out at all on Monday.

She felt uneasy, afraid that Wen Jingyan and the Wen family would retaliate against Ning Xi and her boyfriend.

For two consecutive days, the Wen family remained silent. She only learned about it from the financial news pushed to her today. In just two days, the Wen family's business had encountered one problem after another, with partners terminating their contracts and multiple factories and stores being sealed off.

Wen Jingyan is also under investigation for allegedly assaulting minors and deliberately setting up a scheme to harm others. The relevant evidence has been submitted.

The Wen family, who used to be able to do whatever they wanted in the new city, suddenly fell apart overnight and were left with nowhere to turn for help.

Anyone with eyes to see can tell that the Wen family has offended a powerful figure they can't afford to offend.

If they hadn't offended someone they shouldn't have, given the Wen family's long-standing foundation in Xincheng, it's unlikely their foundation would have been shaken.

The Wen family used all their connections to investigate, but they could not find the person behind the scenes, nor could they find any trace of the mastermind.

Dai Yilan felt only joy upon seeing these messages.

He was glad that the wicked would be punished by heaven, and he also breathed a sigh of relief for Ning Xi and her boyfriend.

If her son hadn't cried and insisted on coming with her before she left, and she hadn't been delayed trying to appease him, she could have arrived much earlier.

We could also tell Ning Xi this news earlier.

Ning Xi asked her to bring the child along, but Dai Yilan was well aware of her son's restless nature.

She just wanted to have a quiet lunch with Ning Xi.

After finally managing to calm the child down and take him to his mother's house, she arrived at the restaurant almost an hour late.

Ning Xi waved to Teacher Dai.

Dai Yilan felt incredibly guilty. "Xi Bao, I made you wait for me for so long while you were hungry. It's my fault. You can scold me now."

Ning Xi smiled and pushed her phone to Teacher Dai, "Hurry up and order, I need to eat so I have the energy to scold you."

Dai Yilan chuckled and took the phone that was pushed towards her to order food.
