[Ding~]
[Congratulations to the host for seizing female lead Liu Shiyu. Protagonist fate points -3500.]
Hearing the system’s voice, Qin Xiao felt extremely satisfied. As expected of a female lead—no matter how many times the protagonist mistreated her, she still clung to him without letting go. The same actions would only give less than 1000 from Xia Shiya, but Liu Shiyu directly gave 3500.
After working hard the entire night, Master Qin finally held her in his arms and fell asleep contentedly.
…
On the other side, Chu Feng waited left and right, but Liu Shiyu never returned home, giving him a strong sense of unease.
He felt he had lost something extremely important.
That feeling had appeared yesterday as well, and many times after that, as if something that belonged to him was slipping away bit by bit. This time, it was even stronger, making him so frustrated he almost coughed up blood.
Lying on the mat, he looked at Liu Shiyu’s empty bed and finally couldn’t hold it anymore—he called her.
But her phone never connected.
His ominous feeling intensified.
After trying many times, he finally contacted Xu Lin, who answered.
“Hello, Chu Feng, why are you calling me? If you have something to say, hurry up!” Xu Lin said impatiently.
Chu Feng didn’t mind her tone and instead asked, “Xu Lin, I can’t reach Shiyu at all. Do you know where she is? Did something happen?”
Xu Lin rolled her eyes. She didn’t want to waste time with this useless man. But remembering that Liu Shiyu seemed to be with Qin Xiao, she worried that Chu Feng might cause trouble again.
Thinking of this, she snapped, “Shiyu doesn’t want to go home. She’s at my place. If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up. Don’t bother me again!”
She hung up immediately.
Chu Feng, hearing this, let out a sigh of relief and didn’t care about Xu Lin’s attitude. Since Liu Shiyu was with her, he relaxed. Although that strange feeling lingered, he pushed it aside.
As long as Liu Shiyu was safe, nothing else mattered.
“Maybe Shiyu is really angry today,” he thought.
After all, Liu Shiyu was dealing with huge problems right now, and he had only added to her troubles. Anyone would be upset. It was normal she didn’t want to see him now.
“It’s okay. In three more days, the three-year promise will end. By then Shiyu will forgive me and fall in love with me!”
Chu Feng thought happily, imagining Liu Shiyu deeply infatuated with him. He was so excited that he couldn’t sleep the whole night. The source of this chapter is g.com.
…
The next morning.
Liu Shiyu slowly woke up from a deep sleep. When she saw herself lying in Qin Xiao’s arms, her mind exploded.
Th-this…
Her eyes turned blank. She didn’t understand what had happened.
Then memories of last night came back one by one, and she felt her whole body bristle.
She had actually done such an unspeakable thing with Qin Xiao?
And she had even been half willing?
But very quickly she realized something was wrong. This wasn’t like her at all. How could she ever do something like this?
“Could it be… Qin Xiao drugged me?”
Thinking this, a wave of disgust surged through her. Combined with the intense pain in her body, she immediately burst into tears—followed by overwhelming anger.
“Qin Xiao, what did you do to me!?”
Liu Shiyu couldn’t help shouting, waking Qin Xiao and angrily questioning him.
Qin Xiao blinked like he had just woken up, staring at her blankly. When he finally recognized her, he widened his eyes. “CEO Liu, why are you here!?”
Seeing his shocked expression, Liu Shiyu clenched her teeth. “Who else would it be!? I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person.”
Hearing what sounded exactly like a cliché novel line, Qin Xiao snickered inside.
If this had been the protagonist, he would’ve been slapped three times already.
But Qin Xiao? He was the favored younger brother of a big villain. How could he act like a spineless protagonist?
With a serious face, Qin Xiao said, “CEO Liu, I’m sorry. I don’t know what happened. Last night, I remember holding my girlfriend. I didn’t expect it was you!”
Hearing this, Liu Shiyu felt her anger surge. She was already like this, yet he actually said he mistook her for someone else? The source of this chapter is novelping.com.
Before she could speak, Qin Xiao continued, “I didn’t expect something like this to happen. But don’t worry, I definitely won’t take it seriously. We’ll just treat it as if nothing happened!”
[Beautifully done. You said all the female lead’s lines for her. As expected of you, my host.]
Qin Xiao secretly smiled. “Flatterer. I can’t let anyone think I owe them, right? That would be the start of becoming a bootlicker.”
Liu Shiyu stared at him with gritted teeth, not knowing what to say.
It felt like she had no words at all. Even if she wanted to do something to Qin Xiao… could she?
Was she supposed to call Chu Feng for help?
Even if that were possible, she could never bring herself to say something like this out loud.
Thinking of that, Liu Shiyu felt wronged to the point of tears.
She had guarded her body for more than twenty years. Even after marrying Chu Feng, she had only let him sleep on the floor. And now Qin Xiao had taken advantage of her.
What made it worse was that Qin Xiao looked completely indifferent—no intention of taking responsibility, not even a trace of guilt.
When Qin Xiao noticed a small red mark on the sheets and frowned slightly, Liu Shiyu felt even worse.
Because he didn’t look happy at all—far from it.
“CEO Liu, what’s going on?” Qin Xiao asked.
Liu Shiyu’s expression chilled. “None of your business. I’m on my period, alright!?”
Qin Xiao nodded. “Good. Since that’s the case, let’s treat this as if it never happened. I don’t want anyone to know and cause unnecessary trouble for me.”
“You—”
Liu Shiyu was so angry that she couldn’t speak. She felt completely disappointed in Qin Xiao. She had thought he was a decent person.
Now she felt only anger and grievance.
