Chapter 48: Realistic Gold Used to Bring Good Luck to Oneself (Fake Gold)
The system was somewhat surprised to see her ring the doorbell of Yan Xiu's house without any hesitation.
[Host, aren't you going to hesitate even for a moment? Aren't you worried that Yan Chen will find out...]
The moment it opened its mouth, Yun Qing instantly became irritated. [Shut up! Do you even want me to work for you anymore?]
System: ...You're not working for me, are you?
It couldn't help but say: 【Yan Chen…】
Yun Qing interrupted it impatiently, "Do you want me to watch the small world collapse, watch Yan Chen's soul be damaged and scattered along with the female lead? Or do you want me to break character now and be struck by lightning?"
No, I...
[Stop nagging! Just remember to enable the protection mechanism for me!]
Before the system could say anything more, Yan Xiu opened the door, gazing at Yun Qing with deep affection and surprise, his eyes burning with passion, "Yun Qing..."
The system disregarded everything else and immediately declared solemnly: "Host, rest assured, I will absolutely not let him touch a single hair on your head!"
Yun Qing took a deep breath and followed Yan Xiu into the room.
Perhaps because he would need her help to deal with Yan Chen later, Yan Xiu clearly intended to keep his deep affection a facade.
He peeled an apple himself and handed it to Yun Qing with a gentle smile on his face.
Yun Qing was too lazy to play along with him. Since her goal was clear, she decided to get right to it!
【system……】
【receive! 】
It will fill Yan Xiu with a related memory, making him believe that such an event actually happened, and the host only needs to stay at Yan Xiu's house for a period of time.
Apart from the host, no one knows that this plot did not actually happen, so it can be treated as if it did.
Yan Xiu suddenly felt dazed, and the next moment, a loud "bang" woke him up.
Yun Qing was also startled by the loud noise.
The two turned their heads at the same time and saw Yan Chen standing at the door, his face so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
Yun Qing's mind went blank for a moment, and she sprang away instantly, as if she wanted to be eight feet away from Yan Xiu, even though she wasn't that close to him to begin with.
Yan Chen strode over and, without a word, pulled her away.
Yun Qing was pulled back to her senses and then went completely berserk.
Why did Yan Chen suddenly appear?
She had just arrived at Yan Xiu's house when Yan Chen arrived right after her. Did he teleport there?
She glanced at Yan Chen's gloomy face, feeling guilty, and didn't dare to ask anything. She just silently followed Yan Chen.
Yan Xiu watched the two leave, his face extremely grim. Although Yan Chen hadn't said a word the whole time, he couldn't help but feel flustered.
Last time, because of Yun Qing, Yan Chen had already taught him a lesson. This time, he was caught red-handed by Yan Chen, and he couldn't even imagine how Yan Chen would deal with him.
And why did Yan Chen appear so promptly? Did he know about his plan?
He did indeed want to steal Yan Chen's girlfriend and make him suffer, but his flirting with Yun Qing wasn't entirely for that reason.
More importantly, it's because it's very difficult for him to turn things around now, while Yun Qing is someone Yan Chen cherishes dearly, and can even freely enter and leave Yan Chen's office. If she were to work together from the inside, then he would have a chance!
But unexpectedly, he was exposed before he could even seduce Yun Qing.
Throughout the journey, Yan Chen did not utter a single word, leaving Yun Qing filled with unease.
Assistant Lin, who was driving, kept his eyes down and didn't dare to say a word.
The car was so quiet it felt almost oppressive.
Upon arriving home, Yan Chen immediately pulled the person inside and headed straight upstairs to the bedroom.
Yun Qing's alarm bells went off instantly. [System, what is Yan Chen planning?]
Before the system could speak, Yan Chen dragged Yun Qing into the bedroom, kicked the door shut, pushed her against the door, grabbed her chin, and scrutinized her face as if trying to see right through her.
Yun Qing blinked nervously, "Yan... Yan Chen..."
Yan Chen curled his lips in a mocking smile, his voice low and hoarse from suppressing his turbulent emotions, "Lu Yunqing, do you really have no heart?"
Yun Qing lowered her eyelids, somewhat unable to meet his sad gaze. Suddenly, her heart felt like it was stuffed with cotton, making it hard to breathe.
Seeing her silence, Yan Chen could no longer contain his anger. "Do you think I'll forgive you no matter what you do? Do you think I won't be sad?"
Yun Qing's nose tingled, and tears welled up in her eyes. Her shoulders trembled slightly uncontrollably.
She knew Yan Chen would be sad, and that he might never forgive her again.
She knew it all along, and she thought she was prepared.
But when she actually faced it, she was completely unable to remain calm.
At this moment, Yan Chen suddenly released her, his eyes scanning her face, his tone instantly changing from anger to calm, "Does it hurt your heart?"
Yun Qing looked at him with teary eyes, still immersed in grief and somewhat unable to come to her senses.
Yan Chen reached out and poked her forehead, saying in a deep voice, "Don't cry!"
Yun Qing blinked, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
She sobbed, tears streaming down her face, "I...I can't hold it in..."
She couldn't help but feel hurt. She grabbed Yan Chen's arm, wiping her tears with his sleeve as she accused him, "You did this on purpose..."
Yan Chen let her wipe the wet streaks on his sleeve and admitted, "I did it on purpose."
"You scared me just now, you know? I thought you were really angry..."
It wasn't really scary; she didn't think Yan Chen would beat her up. What she was more afraid of was that Yan Chen would be sad and upset.
She rushed off to find Yan Xiu in one go, afraid that if she hesitated, she wouldn't be able to bring herself to do it.
Yan Chen narrowed his eyes at her and sneered, "Who told you I'm not angry?"
Yun Qing paused, looked up at him, and met his dangerous gaze. She silently released his arm, shrank back, and pressed herself firmly against the door.
"Then... what do you want?"
Yan Chen's gaze remained fixed on her face. He expressionlessly raised his hand, ripped off his tie, tossed it aside casually, and then began unbuttoning his shirt.
[Hmm...System, I think I'm really doomed this time!]
The system pondered for a moment and said: [Host, if you can see hope with Yan Chen, you will naturally choose him, rather than settling for the uncertain future of Yan Xiu. Therefore, it doesn't violate your character setting. Good luck!]
Yun Qing: ...Did I ask you to cheer me on?
Even if it doesn't contradict the character's personality, what about the plot?
The plot is already beyond saving, are you sure you want to make things even worse?
With a crisp metallic crack, Yun Qing couldn't hold back any longer.
No, Yan Chen is furious! I don't want to become a rag doll!
System: ...When did you start watching all this nonsense?
Yun Qing turned around abruptly, grabbed the doorknob, and tried to open the door and escape.
Yan Chen sneered, reached out and pressed on the door, and the door, which had just been opened a crack, slammed shut in front of Yun Qing.
Yan Chen was not as calm as he appeared on the surface, but he was very restrained and suppressed his anger.
In fact, if he hadn't genuinely felt Yun Qing's heartache and sadness for him, he probably would have lost control of his emotions long ago.
Normally, he might have let her escape, but now he wasn't so easy to talk to.
He picked the person up and threw him onto the bed.
As soon as Yun Qing sank into the soft blankets, Yan Chen leaned down and silenced her with a kiss.
