Chapter 183 The Overlord Insists on Using Me as Bai Yueguang’s Stand-in (71)
Ni Fang didn't expect that Lu Wenyu would actually bring her to a penthouse apartment under his name. The floor-to-ceiling windows reflected the lights of thousands of homes in the city, and the stars dotted on the ground, which was very beautiful.
As soon as she walked into the living room, she saw the table was filled with Chinese dishes, with steam still rising from them.
Ni looked at Lu Wenyu mischievously, "You don't mean to say that you cooked all this yourself, do you?"
"Auntie made it," Lu Wenyu pulled out a stool in a gentlemanly manner, and waited for Nifang to sit down before walking to his own seat. "I just remembered your preference."
Ni Fang raised the wine glass and shook it gently. Her eyes were full of clarity. "Lu Wenyu, we have played the game of testing too many times. Tonight, I want to hear you tell the truth. Is that okay?"
Lu Wenyu couldn't help but laugh. He didn't know when his credit score in Ni Fang's heart had dropped to a negative number. He set up two traps for Ye Haotian tonight. First, he used the sapphire to make Ye Haotian realize his responsibility to Zhong Ying, and then he used Zhong Ying's return to China to completely sever the fate between Ye Haotian and Zhong Ying.
He also took advantage of the court session to trick Xin Yuan and expel both Xin Yuan and Ye Haotian from the ranks of competitors.
It seemed like a night of great victory for him, but in the end the victory or defeat of the chess game was handed over to Ni Fang.
As expected, pinning one's hopes on an illusory love means that one will lose everything. As long as Ni Fang is unwilling, he is not even worthy of being a competitor of Ye Haotian and Xin Yuan.
Lu Wenyu couldn't help but shook his head. This was his own fault.
Ni Fang calmly ate something, which tasted good. She had just finished a performance and her stomach was empty, so everything tasted good. She didn't even need to look up, she just thought that Lu Wenyu was thinking about something else again. He was smarter and more clever than ordinary people, but with this disease, his intelligence became a burden.
As the saying goes, excessive wisdom leads to harm.
Lu Wenyu would live longer if he thought less, but unfortunately he was destined not to think less.
Ni Fang felt her stomach was no longer empty, so she put down her chopsticks and looked at Lu Wenyu, "Let's make a promise to each other that we will tell the truth tonight, okay? Maybe you don't believe it, but I really want to help you."
Ni Fang had to admit that Lu Wenyu was different to her. Whether she liked him or cared about him, she was willing to give Lu Wenyu a chance.
Lu Wenyu thought about why she did this, predicted his own behavior, and finally gave up and cleared all thoughts from his mind.
From childhood to adulthood, Lu Wenyu has never been a person who trusts others.
The person who can say such words about the painting "Redemption" is probably different from others.
"Okay, from now on we will only tell the truth." Lu Wenyu let down his guard, leaning back in his chair, with a somewhat lazy look on his face.
"I don't see you like this often. I thought you guys would have gentlemanly manners ingrained in your bones."
"My parents didn't care about these things, and no one taught me. It was only later in the Ye family that I had to learn them in order to survive."
Lu Wenyu even rubbed his stiff neck, "Ye Haotian has been taught since he was a child, so he is used to it. I have been influenced by him and have done better than him. I am even more talented than him in business."
"Are you jealous of him?"
"Of course not," Lu Wenyu shook his head slightly, as if he was very surprised by what Ni Fang said, "He is still a child. I won't be jealous of a child."
Lu Wenyu took a deep breath and said calmly, "I know you. I have known you for a long time."
Ni Fang couldn't help but chuckle. Lu Wenyu was such an interesting person. He would not be jealous of Ye Haotian because he didn't take Ye Haotian seriously at all.
【Mingming. 】
[I am here, host. 】
【Spend 60 points to use time pause. 】
[The time pause item has been used for you. 】
Lu Wenyu's movements were instantly frozen in place, and even the aroma of the food was frozen in the air.
Ni Fang felt relieved because she was going to talk to Mingming about something extremely important and could not be disturbed by anyone.
[I have something I would like to ask you to ask Tianming Bookstore. As the only female protagonist of this female-oriented story, do I have the right to change the story? Or even replace the male protagonist?]
[Based on the current situation, the probability of Ye Haotian falling in love with you is 55%. In order to retain the label of a sweet and domineering story, it is not recommended that you change the plot direction. ]
[There is more than one CEO in this world, Ye Haotian. Or I can be the CEO of this story and randomly pet a stranger.]
[I can't tell whether you are joking or talking seriously.]
【I never joke with you.】
Mingming was silent for a while. It knew that Ni Fang was a person who would not change her mind once she made up her mind. It just didn't know what happened during the system upgrade that made her think of giving up Ye Haotian.
[You fell in love with Lu Wenyu, right? ]
[That’s right. 】
It calculates the probability of something happening almost instantly.
[Lu Wenyu has developed self-awareness, and you realized this a long time ago. Why? Why didn't you tell me immediately and let Tianming Bookstore handle this matter? ]
It said that once the characters awaken, they will only do one thing, they will try every means to kill the protagonist. Only when the real protagonist dies, the world will not be born around the protagonist. The person who killed the protagonist will take over the protagonist, take over the new destiny, and become the only controller of the world.
The awakened character is very dangerous, it had reminded Ni Fang early on, but why didn't Ni Fang let Tianming Bookstore intervene?
This was the first time that Ni Fang was faced with Mingming's question and was somewhat hesitant about how to answer. Emotional matters were always unpredictable. Since she knew what Lu Wenyu wanted to do and how much effort he had put in to accomplish this, she could not just turn a blind eye.
When she helped Lu Wenyu, she was actually helping herself.
Ni Fang then asked: [Are you sure that the name Lu Wenyu did not appear in the original story? ]
Mingming conducted the fastest information retrieval.
[Yes, Lu Wenyu's name did not appear in the original story. After my second search, I found that when Ye Haotian attended his father's funeral, there was an old tombstone in the Ye family cemetery, which read "The Tomb of Ye Ping, the eldest daughter of the Ye family, and her son", which just happened to correspond to Lu Wenyu's identity.]
[Yes, you see, he tried so hard to survive. How can I eliminate his existence before anything happens just to eliminate unknown dangers?]
【Are you soft-hearted? 】
【When have I ever been cruel? 】
Ni Fang thought she was not a qualified tasker. She also thought about hardening her heart and completing the task, but she had her own heart. She could see that there was love everywhere in the world. She did not want to interfere with the fate of others just to complete the task, so she always acted carefully. She knew that Xin Yuan was sincere about drama, so she wanted to make him like Lu Dong through acting, which could be regarded as completing the task, and it would be much easier for him to get out of it in the future.
She knew that the plot wanted her to be Zhong Ying's substitute, to accompany Ye Haotian, and to make him fall in love with this substitute as they spent more time together. After the ups and downs of the plot, the lovers finally got married.
But she didn't want this. She hoped that Ye Haotian could break free from the shackles, do what he really wanted to do, and love the person he really loved.
As for Lu Wenyu, she was the one who had less thoughts and concerns.
