Villain – Peeking at the Diary, the Female Leads' Personas Collapse-Chapter 149

Chapter 149

After saying that, Jin Lan kissed Chen Fan, then got up and said, “I’m heading back. I still have a lot of work to do. From now on, don’t ever misunderstand me again. If I see you ignoring me, just wait and see.”

“I got it … I got it.”

Jin Lan left, completely satisfied.

As soon as she stepped out, three women squatting at the door looked at her with admiration.

Liu Feifei said, “Wow! Sis, that was so cool! You were seriously badass!”

Cao Zijin said, “Right? I also think she’s incredible. I only suggested she take the initiative and admit it. How was I supposed to know she’d go ahead and take advantage of him? Feifei, your big sister here just got cheated on. I’m so miserable.” freēnovelkiss.com

Zhu Yeqing sighed and said, “Young Master didn’t seem too willing, though.”

“Stop worrying about your Young Master. If this were any other man, wouldn’t he be overjoyed?”

Meanwhile, in a bar somewhere in the city, a woman was drinking with a few friends in a booth.

It seemed like someone had come over to greet them. But they were stopped by someone else.

Xiaoli took the initiative to invite that person over for a drink.

Ling Xiaoyun had no choice but to sit down and said, “I’m not really that interested in drinking.”

Xiaoli said, “That’s fine! Just have some juice or something. We’ll be the ones drinking, hahaha.”

Xiaoli stared at Ling Xiaoyun so intently that his face turned red. Clearly, he was feeling a little shy.

Hiding in the distance, Ling Yuyan watched everything unfold, her heart bleeding.

Oh, fuck. What the hell is going on? Why? Is this the world line correcting itself? Damn it, this shouldn’t be happening! My big brother never even comes to bars, so why the hell is he here today? And why did he just so happen to run into an undercover agent?

Damn.

This is way too stupid.

Meanwhile, Ye Aotian appeared and said, “I never expected this, Ling Xiaoyun. You actually came to a bar? I thought you never set foot in places like this.”

Sh*t. Big bro, do something! If you make a fool of yourself now, you might as well not exist anymore!

Xiaoli stood up and said, “Hello, Ye Aotian. I’m Xiaoli, an actress in your movie. I just joined today, and I had no idea this was your bar. You’re so young and already own a business like this. That’s really impressive!”

Ye Aotian said, “Thanks for the compliment. Of course, your visit is an honor for our bar. Drinks are on me tonight—drink as much as you want.”

Xiaoli said, “Then don’t leave! Stay for a bit. I have a lot of script-related questions I want to ask you.”

Ye Aotian nodded. He didn’t overthink it and sat down right next to Xiaoli.

One man on the left, one man on the right—Xiaoli sat between them.

At that moment, Ling Yuyan completely lost it.

Big bro, if you don’t take down Ye Aotian right now, our Ling family is done for.

…

Ling Yuyan hid herself, covering her face while nibbling on the fruit from the table, her eyes fixed on the situation unfolding at the distant bar table.

Damn it. Ling Yuyan felt like she was losing her mind. What was happening before her had completely shattered her understanding. What the hell—this woman is way too impressive.

The woman chatted effortlessly with Ye Aotian, admiration and admiration shining in her eyes, actively and attentively engaging with him.

Not only that, but she even took the initiative to toast him.

All of this was actually quite reasonable.

From the moment this woman appeared, Ling Yuyan had already figured out that she must be the undercover agent.

A little investigation had revealed that this woman, named Xiaoli, was a second-tier celebrity. She took the sexy route and had no shortage of scandals. She had used those scandals to gather attention before gradually landing more serious acting roles.

It had even been exposed that she had once starred in certain kinds of films.

Not only that, but someone had even leaked other videos online—allegedly, a recording of this woman with some big shot.

In short, if one wanted to dig, there was no shortage of dirt on her. If it were just a few occasional scandals, it would be understandable. But this much blackmail material? That wasn’t normal.

This woman was a total femme fatale.

But the real question was—why the hell was her brother so tense about it?

At this moment, Ye Aotian got up from the booth, saying he needed to go to the restroom. And the moment he left, Xiaoli immediately approached Ling Xiaoyun.

And to Ling Yuyan’s shock, her brother actually took a sip of alcohol under this woman’s persuasion.

What the f*ck.

Her … brother! Was he really okay with this?

Then, the woman “accidentally” spilled her drink and hurriedly grabbed some napkins to wipe Ling Xiaoyun’s clothes.

Ling Xiaoyun, clearly nervous, immediately waved it off, saying it was no problem. But from Ling Yuyan’s perspective, it was all too obvious—this woman was seducing her brother on purpose.

And the most ridiculous part? Her brother seemed to be accepting it! This made absolutely no sense! This … this was pure evil!

Why?! What did my brother ever do to deserve this? Just because he followed the protagonist, he has to suffer this kind of humiliation?!

The reason Ling Yuyan was so upset was because she had read plenty of power fantasy web novels before.

And in those stories, the sidekick finding true love always played out one of three ways:

The sidekick’s wife was either a widow, usually a single mother with a child.

She was a woman from the red-light district or something similar.

Or, the most absurd scenario—a woman was kidnapped and violated by the villain, only for the protagonist’s sidekick to take her in as his wife, and they live happily ever after.

What the actual f*ck?!

So basically, the whole world has to revolve around the protagonist, and anyone else is just destined to be miserable?

Compared to that, the novel world she was living in actually seemed pretty normal.

At least, Chen Fan had women around him, and they were normal women.

For the first time, she felt like the author of her world was actually being a decent human being.

Damn it. Praising the author actually felt weird. But still—this author was being way too cruel to her brother.

…

[Ling Xiaoyun actually has it really rough. Sigh, he’s probably the only guy who sometimes gets even more popularity than the protagonist.]

[Honestly, if Cao Zijin hadn’t reminded me, I would’ve totally forgotten who this woman was. So it was Xiaoli … I remember now. It’s her.]

[How should I put this … In the end, this woman got caught between Ye Aotian and Ling Xiaoyun. The two of them even fought over her. Then, after finding out she was an undercover agent, Ling Xiaoyun voluntarily apologized.]

[Ye Aotian, of course, showed his “protagonist grace” and said he didn’t mind. But he still lectured Ling Xiaoyun, hoping he would “learn something” from this experience.]

[Hmm … I remember there was even a line describing Xiaoli—something about “a woman who had been passed around by Ye Zifeng’s subordinates.”]
