(Well I wrote a big chapter after a long time..)
Without arousing any suspicion Su Chen spent the evening as usual.
A couple of games, the usual massage, some action packed evening movies, the same spicy dinner, Su Chen just went with the flow.
If the other party is so eager to serve you, then just enjoy the service.
The next morning Su Chen got up early but to his dismay, the captain of the security team was standing next to him with an embarrassed face.
Sipping the coffee while enjoying its aroma, Su Chen had no expression of panic as he listened to the captain's report.
"Hmm, so you say Chu Fang is still in the hospital?"
"Yes, apparently Chu Fang was beaten by Mei Qing's bodyguards yesterday while he tried to stalk her!"
-The captain of the security team briefly explained the situation.
"He is still in the hospital recovering from various injuries, it is said that some of his bones were fractured. He won't come out for atleast a week."
Su Chen took another sip from the cup he was holding.
"Interesting!"
"But.."
-the security team captain hesitated a bit but finally spoke again.
"But there seems to be something wrong! When my people secretly checked his condition, his body was repairing all the injuries itself and it seemed as if his body was getting more stronger than before."
'Of course, he is the protagonist'
'Rising up like a Phoenix from ashes is a pretty common routine for them.'
-Su Chen was still without any expression on his face
"Okay, you can leave now."
After the captain of the security team left, Su Chen supported his chin with his spare hand as his eyes regained their clarity.
"It's really interesting! I am pretty sure hearing my thoughts, this Mei Qing must have already known that this Chu Fang is not a good thing and is trying to save herself…but my dear fiancée you overestimate your abilities!"
"Do you think you can fight against the protagonist's halo on your own? The strong luck and background a protagonist like Chu Fang has is unfathomable. If it was so easy to deal with him then I would not have needed this Villain System."
The corners of his lips lifted as there was a sly smile on Su Chen's face.
He looked at the phone lying on the table.
Yes, this was Chu Chenxi's phone which she forgot on the table before going to sleep.
There was a thought in Su Chen's mind.
Whether to open and check her phone for any particular details?
Even if her favorability is high, at least there must be a reason for it, right?
Perhaps Lady Luck was too strong on his side, the phone was without a password.
He easily unlocked the screen but what opened in front of his eyes almost made him puke.
A web page with search results for - How to steal someone from yourself?
Su Chen clicked on history and the cup of coffee he was holding on the other hand, fell to the ground.
The shock was too much~
History was filled with searches like-
-How to steal someone who may be in love with others?
-How to plot like the concubines in ancient times, who stole the emperor successfully from the main queen.
-How to play the competition as a late comer, so that your love rivals who had a head-start suffer a loss…
-How to win against a fiancée?, How to win against an elder adoptive sister?
And the list kept going on and on..
Seeing all of it, there were black lines all over Su Chen's forehead.
"This is definitely because of her fetish!"
He pondered for a while.
Given his understanding of Chu Chenxi's personality, he realized that this girl who spent the past days with him was already filled with other thoughts.
"Well it's not actually bad, this heroine is not a vase and has a secret identity that later helps her to become strong."
"Moreover, I really like being spoiled by her."
"Yeah I'm selfish indeed, after spending some time with her I want her to belong to me. I don't want her to end up with Chu Fang."
"Oof is this the so-called possessiveness? Whatever is this feeling… Since I have decided to choose the villain route, I should follow my heart's desires to the fullest."
It was not Su Chen's fault, it's a common lesson in psychology that whenever some people spend some time together, something unknowingly changes between them.
Even if they don't wanna admit it, spending time in each other's company subconsciously influences their thinking process and if the people who spent time are lone men and women, and are not careful..the small boundaries between them are bound to be crossed unless you have a heart of steel there's no way you can stay as a mere acquaintance after that.
"Young master~"
Chu Chenxi yawned as she came to the dining table.
"Oh, you got up so early! Let me quickly make breakfast."
Chu Chenxi after spending some days together was too comfortable and behaved as if she was in her own home.
Her pyjamas with teddy bear pics along with her dishevelled hair only added to her leisureful appearance.
Looking at her like this, the last straw in Su Chen's mind was finally broken.
"Chenxi!"
-Su Chen's voice this time was loud.
"Yes"
-Chu Chenxi's shoulders suddenly tensed up, in the past few days she had never heard Su Chen speak in such a loud and domineering tone.
"Sit on the chair beside me!"
-Obediently she sat on the chair beside him.
The atmosphere became serious.
"Just answer me by nodding your head, okay?"
She nodded her head, she dare not refuse because this time she knew Su Chen was not in a playful mood.
"So you can hear some of my inner thoughts, right?"
Bang~
There was a sudden explosion in Chu Chenxi's mind.
The little bit of drowsiness she still had in her eyes washed away in an instant.
Su Chen kept staring at her favorability using his ability of hidden eyes.
'It's still 90!'
She was taken aback but she was a smart girl after all, and knew since Su Chen talked about it to her then there must be more to it. She quickly regained her composure as she nodded her head.
Hearing her response there was a satisfied expression on Su Chen's face.
"So you deliberately approached me, right?"
Hearing this question Chu Chenxi bit her lips.
Su Chen knew this was the moment which will decide if she can truly be on his side. If she can't be truthful when given a chance, then there's no need for her to be here.
Countless thoughts passed through Chu Chenxi's mind, she remembered all the feelings she experienced with the boy in front of her. She remembered vividly, how for the first time she felt needed in her life. She remembered making meals for him, massaging him, helping him clean the house, playing online MOBA games in a duo team where she would support him, watching movies late at night…..
Biting her lips hard, she finally nodded once again.
'No fluctuation! Favorability still at 90..it seems the feelings are genuine!'
-Su Chen was really satisfied with her behaviour.
"It's okay, you passed the test! Change your clothes, we will eat outside. Today I will take you out."
Chenxi, who was still immersed in her thoughts, was startled..
"Is-is this a da-date?"
-her words were staggering as if she was herself not sure what she heard.
"You can think whatever you want, hurry and get dressed. You only have an hour."
Seeing Su Chen's smiling face, Chu Chenxi didn't know what to do!
Yes, she felt panicked but she was not sure if running away was the right option.
There was a faint feeling in her heart that if she left today she would miss out on something very important in her life.
As she disappeared into her room to get ready, the smile on Su Chen's face further widened.
"She is really a good girl plus since she is already a little infatuated with me, I won't let her go!"
"Who says that love can only be at first-sight?"
"I think as long as one spends some quality time with others, the feeling will eventually change from liking to loving~"
"Even though she has a favorability of 90, we still lack an emotional foundation amongst us…let's cultivate some feelings today, my dear!"
-Su Chen too got up from his chair and went to his room to freshen-up.
...
Just like that an hour passed.
By now, Chu Chenxi along with Su Chen was already sitting inside a Lamborghini.
The highway was clear, giving a perfect opportunity to Su Chen to test the engine's limit.
The roof of the car was open.
Feeling the car speeding away, Chu Chenxi felt an unnatural thrill~
Her heart fluttered.
"Su—-Su Chen go slow….the spee—eed is tooo fast."
"Wha—at are youuuu saying?"
-Due to the roof being open and strong wind, Su Chen wrongly heard Chu Chenxi's words.
He thought she was just screaming in excitement.
He looked at her and thought she was somewhat uncomfortable. He quickly took out the hairpin she had put and let her hair loose.
"Suuuuu Chennnnn~"
Chu Chenxi was screaming at the top of her lungs.
All her hair became messy in an instant due to the strong wind.
She felt wronged but after seeing that it was no use of screaming, she on her own became quiet and closed her eyes.
As she closed her eyes the scene of him taking out her hairpin while her guard was down flashed in her mind. Unintentionally, she imagined Su Chen's face winking at her.
Her face became redder by each passing second, she tried to hide her face but found herself tightly held by the seat-belt.
She knew her head was not in the right place, even though she felt scared that the car may have an accident..she still wanted to enjoy the thrill of spending up. Even though she wanted to scold Su Chen for taking her hairpin without asking, a part of her still enjoyed his actions.
Her deep-red blushing face was the clear evidence~
There was only a single thought in her mind-
'Oh, Mom! You said only a husband can touch a girl's hair….uwwwuuu~ What should I do now??? He played with my hair.'
