Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 208: The sick and weak boy appeared at the beginning of the year
Qiao Chuchu froze, and the scenes before her once again shifted.

The Long brothers' faces, once grinning lasciviously, became pale and faded away.
The image of Xia Xuechun and Wang Rutang being intimately close together also began to shatter.
Even the scene of her chasing after Xia Xuechun disappeared.
She was stunned. "Everything’s rewritten, so what about my ending with Xia Xuechun—"
Qiao Chuchu lifted her head and realized the frail version of herself was no longer there.
In her place were two bodyguards, obediently crouching in front of her.
Pei Mu and Pei Ci looked up at her, brows slightly furrowed, concern faintly showing behind their sunglasses. "Miss, are you alright?"
For some reason, just now, Qiao Chuchu had frozen.
Completely motionless.
It felt as though her breath had stopped.
She snapped out of it, an empty feeling inside her, as if something had been taken away. "I’m fine."
[It’s just... I saw a version of myself from another timeline.]
Pei Ci kneeled and gently wiped away the tears on her face, gazing at her with deep concern.
Pei Mu slowly took her hand in his. "Are you really okay?"
Qiao Chuchu sniffed, lowering her head, her voice soft but still clearly irritated. "I’m fine, I—"
Suddenly, her senses sharpened.
[Wait!]
[Why are these two bodyguards being so familiar with me?!]
She looked up through teary eyes, and with a swift movement, she punched them both on the arm!
Pei Mu: "!"
Pei Ci: "!"
Qiao Chuchu’s anger flared up: "Sexual harassment, huh?! Do you think this kind of behavior will make me, your employer, like you?!"
The Pei brothers, still in the video, were momentarily shocked.
They had been full of worry, but seeing Qiao Chuchu suddenly so full of life, they couldn’t help but smirk.
As expected from Qiao Chuchu, her emotions change in an instant!
Pei Ci and Pei Mu covered their faces, feeling wronged. "No, Miss, you misunderstood us! We just wanted to care about you!"
She snorted and lowered her voice, scolding them: "Do you think I’m an idiot? Caring about me by wiping my tears? And holding my hand?"
[Such intimacy, are you two trying to act like my boyfriends?! No sense of boundaries!]
The two of them pitifully protested, "We really just wanted to care about you."
But there was no way to justify the physical contact.
Because the moment they saw her crying, they couldn’t bear it and just wanted to comfort her.
Qiao Chuchu sneered. "Care about me? Are you two planning to use your looks to lure me in, make me fall for you and then play out some rich girl falls in love with her bodyguards drama? Get me to marry you, take my family’s fortune, and one day when I refuse to give you money, you plot to tear me apart?!"
Pei Mu: "?"
Pei Ci: "?"
How much legal news had she been watching?!
Qiao Chuchu scoffed. "I’m telling you both, even if I cry my eyes out, you’re still not allowed to touch me. I’m not stupid, and I’m definitely not a person lacking love. You won’t win me over with your so-called tricks. I’m not interested in dating! You’ve got it all wrong!"
Pei Mu: "..."
Pei Ci: "..."
Others who heard this: "..."
Qiao Chuchu angrily pointed toward the door. "You two better go get someone else and clean up your things. I don’t want to see you two anymore."
[I’ve watched so many dismemberment cases, do you really think I haven’t learned anything?!]
[When someone’s overly nice, they’re either up to something or a thief!]
Pei Mu and Pei Ci’s expressions changed, and they pressed down on her knee. "Miss, please don’t kick us out, we know our mistake."
Qiao Chuchu warned, "Let go of me, or I’ll tell my brother! My brother isn’t very bright!"
Pei Mu: "?"
Pei Ci: "?"
The Pei family: "?"
Pei Mu froze for a moment, then laughed in anger. "What do you mean your brother’s not very bright?"
Qiao Chuchu coldly sneered. "Have you ever seen a rabid dog? If my brother finds out you’ve been bullying me, he’ll act just like a rabid dog—no reasoning, just pure rage."
She leaned forward, lowering her voice and speaking mysteriously. "There’s a pair of twins, just perfect for you two—one for each of you."
Pei Mu: "..."
Pei Ci: "..."
Qiao Chuchu proudly lifted her head. "So, if you don’t want to get into trouble, leave quickly. My two brothers are pretty handsome, you’ve seen them before."
Pei Ci: "They’re handsome?"
Pei Mu: "They’re handsome?"
Qiao Chuchu: "?"
[Is that the important part?]
Pei Mu and Pei Ci suddenly stood up, energetic, and said, "Sorry, Miss, we were presumptuous. Now that you’ve brought up your handsome Fifth and Sixth brothers, we’re trembling in fear. We’ll leave right now!"
The two nodded in unison!
Then, they strode out with confidence!
Qiao Chuchu: "..."
She stared blankly at them leaving, completely confused.
[Did I change the ending, and that’s why the people around me are acting so weird?]
Suddenly, the venue became noisy.
Qiao Chuchu looked up in confusion, noticing the auctioneer was still auctioning off her painting: "Thirty-six million, anyone want to bid thirty-seven million?"
"Alright, thirty-seven million over the phone, anyone else want to bid thirty-eight million?"
The guests exchanged stunned glances: "Qiao Chuchu’s painting has actually reached thirty-eight million?"
"This is outrageous. I thought it was crazy when it passed thirty million."
"Could it be someone’s buying it for Qiao Chuchu?!"
"Haha, spending tens of millions to buy the painting of your crush, that would definitely get their attention."
Qiao Chuchu: "...???"
She had been so focused on the two bodyguards that she didn’t even notice her painting had reached this price!
Who’s been buying her painting without thinking?
It’s expensive, but not this expensive!
The auctioneer continued, looking expectantly at the guests in the fixed seats: "Anyone want to bid higher?"
Pei Yuan raised his hand decisively.
Pei Che followed closely, lifting his paddle with a cold expression.
Pei Youchuan raised his paddle, confident he’d win.
Pei Fenglong raised his paddle without hesitation.
Pei Mu and Pei Ci clasped their hands together, successfully joining the bidding war!
Qiao Chuchu complimented them for being good-looking!
So, they’re bound to win!
Lin Shen also raised his paddle, his face serious and expectant.
Pei Bu Xian sneered as he raised his paddle: "None of you will outbid me."
His gaze locked onto Qiao Chuchu, but he saw her turn her head, staring at them with a steady gaze.
They: "..."
The auctioneer smiled and asked, "Now it’s forty-four million, anyone want to bid higher?"
Qiao Chuchu didn’t blink, her expression calm and detached, with a hint of madness.
For some reason, they all felt a bit guilty and lowered their heads.
"Fifty million."
A cold, youthful voice suddenly rang out.
Qiao Chuchu and the eight of them were stunned, looking toward the source of the voice.
A sickly-looking boy sitting in a wheelchair gestured for the people next to him to lower their paddles, then looked toward Qiao Chuchu.
Qiao Chuchu furrowed her brow in confusion.
The boy wasn’t handsome, but there was a gentle, unisex, delicate beauty about him. He nodded at her with a smile. "Miss Qiao’s painting is always worth it."
Qiao Chuchu: "...?"
Who is this person?
