Title: The OOC Villainess and the White Moonlight Heroine are BFFs
Translator: Little Bamboo Spirit
Chapter 30 - If there was any bullying done, the culprit was always Yue Xia (2)
There was a "secretly following" widget in the background. There were several people on her list. When Yue Xia clicked through it, the first name she saw was Zhuang Xiaohan.
(T/N: The secretly following function on Weibo and other Chinese sites allows you to follow someone without notifying them, and you won't appear on their follower's list.)
Compared to Yue Xia, Zhuang Xiaohan was doing quite well. She often did reviews on beauty products and unboxing of luxury products. She had nearly 300,000 fans, and they all addressed her sweetly.
When she compared her comment section with Zhuang Xiaohan's, it was extremely tragic. No wonder Yue Xia felt so unbalanced.
The avatar of the last account on the list was a bright red rose. It looked like a private account with no personal information posted. However, that account had thousands of fans from one uploaded video.
At the border of a road, in a deserted area, there was a tall woman with slender and nimble legs that radiated power. She had on a helmet and kneepads. As she sped past on her motorcycle, she coldly glanced at the camera.
In this tumbleweed landscape, she was the only bright spot.
Yue Xia thought it over and didn't unfollow her. She didn't pay too much attention to this sort of thing. She quickly opened a first-person shooter game.
At first, the system was worried that playing this game would only make Yue Xia's blood pressure go up, but it was a one-sided bloodbath in Yue Xia's favor. She annihilated the screaming low-ranked players for a long time.
After an unknown time passed, someone sent her a message.
Speaking of the devil, it was Lin Shu, the character with the weak presence.
【Lin Shu】:Did you know that Yaoyao reconciled with him? [Screenshot]
【Yue Xia】:How did you know? Is Shi Qingyin willing to add you to his friend's list?
【Lin Shu】:I have my ways.
【Yue Xia】:...
Just say it if you're peeping at someone's account. Don't act so righteous.
Lin Shu had been silently lying in her friend's list for so long. For him to suddenly message her, his purpose was too obvious. He was anxious.
Yue Xia thought; this was just the beginning. You'll only suffer more in the future. No one closely involved with the protagonist pair can hope to have two kidneys.
Yue Xia didn't fall for his trick. Lin Shu was silent for a long time.
【Lin Shu】:I really want to know what Shuyao is thinking. She's clearly so hurt, and yet Shi Qingyin dares to post that photo. He's really… too shameless.
Yue Xia changed her opinion of him. [System, as it turns out, there are relatively normal male characters in old-fashioned domineering CEO novels.]
【Lin Shu】:That's why I only printed out one copy of the photo, and I dare not look at it again.
Yue Xia: "..."
Pervert! Go away! It's a waste that you dress every day as if you're going to church!
Although it was normal for people to have different hobbies, she still wanted to recommend to the supporting male character to visit a psychologist. His inclinations were already beyond the scope of an ordinary person's.
Yue Xia was at a complete loss for words. She didn't want to talk to this person anymore. But, his words reminded her to check up on Shuyao. She went back to the Weibo list. Three seconds later, she noticed something was wrong.
She couldn't see Shuyao's friends' circle on Weibo anymore.
Yue Xia held her breath and gingerly sent over an emoji, but she was greeted with a cold, bright red exclamation mark.
Shuyao had ruthlessly blocked her.
Yue Xia: "..."
The system: [...]
Crickets chirped in the embarrassing silence.
"Why did she do this?" Yue Xia put down her phone in a daze. Each step was accompanied by tears. "My sincerity was misplaced…"
The system saw that she was devastated and was thrilled. It pretended to comfort her. [They're a well-matched pair, so there's no need for anyone to object to their relationship.]
From the beginning, Yue Xia went against its control and caused trouble everywhere. It had racked its brains to course correct. The current situation was the perfect outcome that it wanted to see the most.
The plot was back on track, and the tasks were complete. The male protagonist and the female protagonist were about to get back together, and the female protagonist and the villainess had fallen out. After the next conflict point, Jiang Shuyao and Shi Qingyin would break up, and the red rose would appear in the story.
It was smooth sailing ahead. The mission world would always self-correct to the original plotline. It was impossible for Yue Xia to deviate from the plot.
Ah, so refreshing.
What goes up must come down. Don't bully the poor system. Times have changed. Serves you right, Yue Xia!
[Stop artificially inflating the value of that trash!] Yue Xia expressionlessly said while letting her tears flow freely: [I have OCD, and Shi Qingyin's face looks asymmetrical with only a slap mark on his right cheek.]
[... Can OCD be used in that way?]
The system was realistic. [That's impossible. First of all, you've already slapped him once. Although he won't hit you back, he's definitely wary of you now. He won't let you easily get close to him. Also, your strength is already beyond the level of ordinary people. To achieve the same effect as your slap, the slapper's strength has to be on the same level as you.]
Yue Xia: [.]
The system couldn't hold back its gloating laughter. [Take this time to prepare for the next task-]
As it was laughing, a picture suddenly flashed in its computer case.
… When Yue Xia and Jiang Shuyao were boxing in the gym, they seemed… evenly matched. Thinking about it now, wasn't that a bit strange? Could it be that Yue Xia was pretending to be weaker than she actually was?
Guess so.
The system suddenly had a sense of foreboding. Just as it was about to check in on the male protagonist and the female protagonist, it heard a familiar sound that instantly chilled the oil in its body.
[Warning! Level 1 warning! The plot has drastically deviated! System, fix immediately! Warning!!!]
The system: "?!"
F*ck! What happened?!
