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

Wanling stared in disbelief at the black car hurtling straight toward her, overwhelmed by fear, and a strong survival instinct suddenly surged within her.

Just as the wheel was about to run her over, she panicked and rolled sideways to the side of the road in a disheveled state.

If she had been even a second later, she would have been run over.

Still shaken, she looked up and stared intently at He Kezhou inside the car.

He Kezhou didn't even lift his eyelids.

The driver glanced in the rearview mirror at the frightened and disheveled woman on the roadside.

This woman is not an isolated case of using such tactics to stage accidents.

If she hadn't dodged, his speed would have been enough to keep her in the hospital for the rest of her life.

For the second half of the journey, the driver was on high alert.

He Kezhou was not affected by this little incident; his attention remained on his chat with Ning Xi.

His gaze fell on the message Ning Xi had just sent.

Wife: [I went for a walk on the beach with Fangfang's mom tonight and got pinched by a crab!]

Wife: [It hurts so much! ૮₍ɵ̷﹏ɵ̷̥̥᷅₎ა]

Wife: [The sun here is so strong, I've gotten so much tanned!]

Wife: [I've become ugly!! ૮₍ɵ̷﹏ɵ̷̥̥᷅₎ა]

As He Kezhou stared at the four new messages, the image of Ning Xi pouting and looking aggrieved as she texted him, her cheeks puffed out in anger, flashed through his mind.

The video call he made took quite a while before Ning Xi answered.

Ning Xi was not in the shot, only the sound of a shower could be heard.

Ning Xi's voice rang out three seconds later.

"He Kezhou, I'm taking a shower, wait for me a moment."

After she finishes washing up, we can have a proper video call.

He Kezhou watched the video call end, tapped his finger, and set the photo of Ning Xi holding Qingye as his WeChat profile picture.

He didn't go back to the He family home; instead, he went to his private villa in Hong Kong.

……

Ning Xi, with her hair still wet, gave the bathroom to her aunt.

Ning Fangping urged her to dry her hair before playing on her phone.

Ning Xi couldn't wait to video chat with He Kezhou. She verbally agreed to blow-dry her hair right away, but as soon as Fangfang's mother entered the bathroom, she immediately called He Kezhou for a video chat.

The video call was answered after only two beeps.

Ning Xi's gaze, which had been fixed on the screen, suddenly stopped.

The camera is casually positioned on the bathroom shelf, with wisps of white steam spreading out. He Kezhou stands under the showerhead, warm water flowing down his well-defined shoulders and back.

He didn't try to hide it; he turned his head to look at the screen, his dark eyes glistening with a light mist.

Ning Xi couldn't help but let her gaze fall on his lower back and abdomen—

He Kezhou raised his hand to brush his wet black hair aside, water droplets rolling down his jawline, his deep voice coming lazily through the receiver.

"Where did the crab pinch you?"

Ning Xi's heart skipped a beat when she met his gaze as he looked at the screen.

Her throat felt itchy, and she pitifully showed him her pinched toe: "My little toe got pinched."

He Kezhou leaned slightly forward and zoomed in on the camera.

As he moved, she clearly saw the water droplets and the texture of his skin.

Ningxi's delicate toes curled slightly.

The little toe that was pinched by the crab is no longer red or swollen.

If she hadn't said anything, you wouldn't have been able to tell she'd been pinched by a crab.

In the video, He Kezhou's gaze was deep and fixed on the screen, exuding a strong sense of aggression.

Ning Xi bit her lip lightly. "He Kezhou, you don't uphold male virtues."

"He was video chatting with a girl while he was taking a shower."

He Kezhou reached out and pulled a bath towel, loosely tying it around his waist, revealing glimpses of his waistline. "I'm only showing it to you."

Ning Xi, holding her phone, glanced in the direction of the bathroom.

She lowered her voice and scolded him for being a pervert.

He Kezhou gazed intently at her slightly reddened earlobe. "Between the man you photographed on the beach today, who has a better physique?"

Ning Xi had no recollection of sending him any photos of men.

She held her phone, scrolling up her chat history with her fingertips.

Upon realizing that she had accidentally forwarded the photo she intended for Teacher Dai to He Kezhou, she blinked and, without thinking, said, "Without a doubt, your figure is definitely better than his."

He Kezhou raised an eyebrow, his voice carrying a seductive allure: "How is he better than him?"

His voice sent a shiver down Su Deningxi's spine.

"His touch is better than his."

As soon as she finished speaking, He Kezhou's face darkened.

"You touched him?"

Ning Xi almost shook his head off.

"Fangfang's mother was with me the whole time. If I dared to touch any man indiscriminately, I would be beaten."

He Kezhou's dark eyes held a hint of resentment: "If Fangfang's mother hadn't been with you, would you have touched her?"

Ning Xi sat up straight and glared at him: "He Kezhou, what's wrong with you tonight?"

"Are you deliberately picking a fight?"

He Kezhou's eyelids drooped lazily, and his face magnified on the screen had an extreme impact.

My wife is yelling at me.

Ning Xi bared her teeth at him, "He Kezhou, try being unreasonable again!"

He Kezhou was silent for two seconds.

"Every time we video chatted before, my wife would call me 'husband'."

"I didn't shout even once tonight."

"You don't miss me at all."

Ning Xi changed her position and lay face down on the bed.

She felt that He Kezhou's words, "I don't miss him at all," sounded particularly aggrieved.

She admitted that she had been having so much fun these past few days that she had forgotten all about home.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped.

Ning Xi looked up towards the bathroom.

After Fangfang's mother came out, she could no longer video chat with He Kezhou.

Thinking of this, she called him "husband" several times in a low voice.

Each note was softer than the last.

On the other side of the screen, He Kezhou gazed at her silently, his Adam's apple bobbing uncontrollably several times, his dark eyes filled with a burning intensity.

Hearing the bathroom door open, Ning Xi whispered to He Kezhou, "Fangfang's mother is out."

She hung up the video call and got out of bed.

Holding her phone, she met her aunt's stern gaze and obediently went to blow-dry her hair.

After drying her hair, she crawled into bed and started texting with He Kezhou.

She then discovered that He Kezhou had secretly changed his profile picture to her photo.

……

Port City.

On the day of Mr. He's funeral, the city was shrouded in torrential rain. A gray curtain of rain enveloped the entire cemetery, and the cold rain continued to pour down, soaking the black and white mourning couplets and chilling the hearts of those who came to pay their respects.

No one expected that He Kezhou would be absent from Old Master He's funeral.

The surrounding socialites and noblewomen were dressed in black, their expressions deliberately solemn and somber, but the calculation and prying in their eyes were impossible to hide.

Whispers circulated among the guests, and rumors began to spread unnoticed.

He Zhixian stood before the spirit tablet, too lazy to even act.

The old hag is dead, and she feels only joy and pleasure.

They even wanted to set off fireworks throughout the port city to celebrate.

She glanced around quietly, a cold sneer running through her mind.

Everyone wanted to see He Kezhou at the funeral, but little did they know that he had left Hong Kong City long ago.

He should have arrived in the new city by now.

Last night, He Kezhou approached her and offered her a deal she couldn't refuse.

He handed over the He Group to her full management. The price was that from then on, she would be solely responsible for all affairs of the He Group, and he would completely withdraw from Hong Kong.

The enormous corporation and its immense wealth were nothing compared to Ning Xi's.
