Villain – Peeking at the Diary, the Female Leads’ Personas Collapse

Chapter 36: The Money is Gone, the Woman is Gone

Jin Lan and Chen Fan both fell silent. At this moment, the two of them couldn’t fully understand the direction the plot was taking.

Jin Lan’s intuition as a woman told her that Lin Qingyue absolutely did not like Ye Aotian. It was obvious that Ye Aotian was just indulging in wishful thinking.

From Jin Lan’s perspective, the plot had already changed. Lin Qingyue clearly had a good impression of Chen Fan; otherwise, why would she allow Chen Fan to approach her?

But Chen Fan seemed unaware of all this.

Every time Chen Fan tried hard to straighten the plot, Jin Lan couldn’t help but feel amused.

This was far more entertaining than a TV drama. She even felt a little anticipation for what would happen next.

Ye Aotian looked at Lin Qingyue in front of him and suddenly had many thoughts at once.

Perhaps she liked him but just couldn’t express it. Maybe she actually needed help, but she couldn’t ask for it in front of Chen Fan.

If she accepted help, the entire Lin family would be beyond redemption.

The most absurd thing in this novel world was the frequent use of the “beyond redemption” setup.

According to Chen Fan’s logical analysis, the Chen family hadn’t reached the point where they needed to control a small Lin family. But the protagonist always added more drama for himself, but what can you do, when you’re the protagonist? Without adding drama, how would there be hatred?

For the protagonist, it was simple: any woman he was interested in must like him back.

There’s no need for any reason or explanation.

“I don’t care about this little bit of money; I don’t need it. Since I gave it to you, it’s yours. I don’t need it. Don’t worry, you won’t suffer much. I will make sure the Chen family pays the price. Wait for me.”

After saying this, Ye Aotian stood up and left.

Lin Qingyue was left in a state of confusion.

He didn’t want it? Five Billion?

Lin Qingyue didn’t think much about it and took it directly.

What nonsense, you don’t want it, but why wouldn’t I?

Lin Qingyue wasn’t foolish enough to be moved by money. Since you gave it, and you don’t care about it, I do.

Dignity? Lin Qingyue didn’t care about that. Her family did need money right now to get through a difficult time.

Actually, Ye Aotian didn’t really not care. He felt heartbroken, but he was in front of Chen Fan. He couldn’t lose face, after all. If he took it back, Chen Fan would probably laugh at him to death.

No one was allowed to mock him—not anyone.

“Is this guy an idiot?”

No way. Big sis, someone treats you like this, and you don’t dare to make a move? Are you still the female lead?

“Since he gave the money, let me treat you to breakfast.”

After speaking, Lin Qingyue stood up to pay the bill.

“I’m heading back to the company. If you can, give Auntie a call to let her know you’re safe.”

After saying that, she left the breakfast shop.

Chen Fan looked at Jin Lan beside him and said, “Sis, shall we head back to the office?”

Jin Lan nodded.

The two of them took a car and returned to their office.

As soon as he sat down, Chen Fan opened his computer.

[What the heck is going on? Can someone tell me what just happened?]

[Damn it, what’s going on? Why didn’t Lin Qingyue show any gratitude?]

[The normal plot would be Lin Qingyue feeling a surge of emotions. She never thought this brutish man could offer so much money, and a slight emotional change arises.]

[That’s your character setting!]

[Forget it. Whatever. It seems like the plot is still correct. Ye Aotian gave Lin Qingyue the money to help her through her crisis. Lin Qingyue must be moved. Yes, definitely moved.]

[It must be that Lin Qingyue is wary of my family. Yes, it has to be that. The plot didn’t go off course; it absolutely didn’t. I refuse to believe otherwise.]

“Pfft! Hahaha!”

Jin Lan couldn’t hold back any longer and laughed out loud.

Chen Fan asked, “Boss, what’s up?”

“Nothing, just thought of something funny. Ye Aotian is quite talented, isn’t he?”

“You think highly of him too? It’s just five billion. I’ve got that much too. What’s the big deal?”

“No, no, no. I’m saying, this guy gave Lin Qingyue the money, and then she used it to treat you to a meal. Doesn’t that remind you of a certain joke?”

Chen Fan furrowed his brow.

Jin Lan continued, “It’s like that recent joke going around. A simp gives money to the goddess, and then she uses it to check into a hotel with her real crush.”

Damn it, that does seem like what’s happening here. Is the protagonist really this miserable? But Jin Lan must be joking. They’re the male and female leads; how could they not have feelings for each other? Nonsense. Defamation. I refuse to listen. I refuse. I refuse.

[Everyone’s insane, not following the script.]

[But at least the main plot didn’t change. No matter what happens with the money, it came from Ye Aotian and was used by Lin Qingyue. That’s enough.]

[Speaking of which, when is Li Long going to investigate Ye Aotian? You two need to fight, to clash! That way, I can enter the scene.]

[I think I saw Ling Yuyan today. Not sure if it was a hallucination. Maybe I was mistaken.]

[But Ye Aotian’s strength has improved. Considering the timeline, Ling Yuyan must have helped. Good, good, the plot is still on track.]

At this point, Chen Fan didn’t care about character settings anymore. As long as the plot was correct, that was enough.

As for character settings? Chen Fan couldn’t figure them out. Lin Qingyue must still be concerned about her family.

“If you touch me again like that, I won’t talk to you anymore.”

Looking at the message on his phone, Chen Fan felt relieved.

It seems the character setting is correct. I knew it. How could Lin Qingyue possibly like me? That’s absurd. Look, she’s warning me now, right?

If Jin Lan saw this message, she would definitely not interpret it this way. Any woman would feel that this wasn’t a rejection. But rather an invitation. Hoping you’d continue.

However, since the plot needed to develop, Jin Lan thought she could add a little more fuel to the fire.

She sent a message to Li Long.

After reading the message, Li Long instantly understood.

“Thank you, Leader Jin, much appreciated.”

“Delete this after reading. Don’t tell anyone who informed you.”

“I understand. I’ll handle it. Don’t worry. I will make Ye Aotian pay with blood.”
