After dying, she finally realized she was in a story about a heartthrob protagonist, having become the wealthy young lady whose everything was taken by her illegitimate younger sister. In the origi...
Chapter 49 I Allow
Wen Nianchu frowned.
It seems that Xie Yue still needs to help with the dismantling. But with such a short time, will she be able to call for help in time?
【bite--】
[The host can use the watch's exclusive telepathic function to directly convey his thoughts to the bound object]
This system is finally useful.
As soon as the thought flashed through Wen Nianchu's mind, she heard the multiple-choice questions that appeared in front of the system. It was similar to the multiple-choice question panel that asked her to humiliate Xie Yue at the beginning.
【Start word formation mode, please choose the following method to express your feelings】
A. Please say it in a coquettish tone.
[b. Please say "Too many bombs" in a coquettish tone]
[c. Please say you want to see the other person in a coquettish tone]
what is this???
Wen Nianchu: “(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻”
It would be better to let her die? Is this a must-do?
A translucent system panel suddenly popped up in Wen Nianchu's sight, and a prompt box with white text on a blue background abruptly floated in the air:
[Since the host did not make a choice, the system automatically selects ABC as the answer. Please read the following lines:]
She stared at the lines of words on the panel, her brows furrowed.
Fortunately, I don’t have to say such shameful words, otherwise I really want to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"Xie Yue...come to the warehouse and help me, okay?"
"There are too many bombs here. I can't defuse them all by myself."
"And...I kind of miss seeing you."
Her voice was soft and a little coquettish, like a kitten's paw gently scratching people's hearts.

Xie Yue had just taken a paper cup and was drinking water with his head tilted back, his Adam's apple rolling slightly as he swallowed.
Suddenly, the watch on his wrist vibrated slightly, and Wen Nianchu's voice rang in his mind, with a hint of soft dependence at the end.
"Puff—cough, cough, cough!"
He was caught off guard and choked by the water, and the tip of his ear turned red instantly.
He's not hallucinating, is he?
Xie Yue squeezed the paper cup a little harder, almost deforming the disposable cup.
What is "I miss seeing you"... She is usually calm and composed, why is she suddenly speaking in this tone?
"Yanmu, are you okay?"
Someone noticed his situation and said with concern.
"It's okay." Xie Yue lowered his eyes.
The main course and desserts on board were basically ready, and since they were not the chefs responsible for serving the food, it was now free time.

After Wen Nianchu finished speaking, he thought about countermeasures with an expressionless face, but suddenly he heard Xie Yue's voice coming from the watch.
"Right there."
"—Also, I miss you, too."
Tsk.
Is this what Xie Yue is thinking?
A smile crossed her lips, but was quickly suppressed.
Ye Chenyu, who was standing next to her, saw Wen Nianchu's expression change and thought she was afraid of the bombs:
"What are you afraid of? Even if the bomb explodes, only the unimportant crew members on the ship will die. We will be fine."
Ye Chenyu could also guess what Sister Mo was thinking.
They may be worried that someone is an undercover agent and will expose their whereabouts.
Possessing these bombs means having the right to negotiate with a certain party.
Wen Nianchu came back to his senses and said coldly:
"So, in your eyes, their fate doesn't count?"
Life is worthy of awe, but why is it like a piece of waste paper that can be torn up at any time in their mouths?
Under the dim light of the warehouse, her eyes were as sharp as a knife, completely different from the fleeting tenderness when she heard Xie Yue's inner thoughts just now.
Ye Chenyu was shocked by her sudden sharp questioning, but he still shrugged and said disdainfully:
"Of course not. Their lives are nothing more than a consumption of resources; they create no value. Unlike us, the money they earn in their entire lives probably wouldn't even be as much as our annual allowance."
Wen Nianchu chuckled:
"Oh."
"Ye Chenyu, do you really think that you can overlook all living beings just by standing on the clouds?"
That's why they used such inferior means to take her life.
In their eyes, people are not human beings, but commodities to be sold at a price.
If there is profit, hold it high.
If there is no benefit, just discard it.
Wen Nianchu paused and said in annoyance:
"Don't let me catch you, otherwise I won't mind knocking on the prison door for you myself."
While Xie Yue was still there, she quietly scanned the surroundings, memorizing the locations of bombs in every hidden corner.
Ye Chenyu stood there in a daze.
He suddenly felt ridiculous.
It was obvious that Wen Nianchu had already colluded with Mo Ruyan, so why could she still put on such a righteous attitude and accuse him?
What is the essential difference between them?
They are all weeds struggling in the dark quagmire, trying desperately to climb upwards.
Just to touch the sun one day.
He knew her too well.
She just wanted to break free from the shackles of her family... How was she any different from him?
But why after her rebirth, the distance between her and him became increasingly greater? She no longer cared about him, nor comforted him, but instead said she wanted to send him in...
Ye Chenyu subconsciously stepped forward and stretched out his hand to grab her wrist. However, the moment he raised his hand, his wrist was firmly clamped by a strange man.
"Who allowed you to enter the warehouse?"
Ye Chenyu saw Xie Yue.
He asked coldly.
Wen Nianchu suddenly raised the corner of his lips and hooked his finger towards Ye Chenyu: "Come here."
Ye Chenyu raised his eyebrows slightly and took two steps towards Wen Nianchu. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck.
Wen Nianchu's elbow hit his acupoint accurately, and the man's tall body fell to the ground with a bang, and his clothes were covered with warehouse dust.
"Of course... I allow it?"
While his consciousness was blurred, Ye Chenyu heard Wen Nianchu's words.
She kicked the unconscious Ye Chenyu and turned to look at Xie Yue with a serious expression.
The surveillance in the warehouse is broken.
And she had just made some righteous remarks in front of Ye Chenyu.
So she never thought about letting Ye Chenyu stay awake.
"Didn't you say you could defuse bombs? Can you defuse twenty bombs in the afternoon?"
Wen Nianchu looked at Xie Yue, not saying anything about the lines the system told her to say, but just talking about this matter seriously. Xie Yue didn't seem to have any expression when he heard the twenty bombs.
He nodded: "Location."
Wen Nianchu: "I'll show you."
"Did you take the knife from the kitchen?"
"Um."
"I'll go guard outside." Wen Nianchu pointed out the location to him and casually stuffed Ye Chenyu into a cardboard box.
…
By the time Mo Ruyan and Brother Mang arrived, Xie Yue had already dismantled the bomb and left.
The ship will dock soon.
Wen Nianchu bet that Mo Ruyan would not be in the mood to check the entire surveillance video.
Mo Ruyan gave a wink, and Brother Mang immediately led his men to check all the pre-set bomb locations. After confirming the number, she suddenly frowned, "Where's Ye Chenyu?"
"He said he was sleepy." Wen Nianchu pretended to think, "Maybe he went to find a place to catch up on some sleep."
In fact, it is in an inconspicuous box in the warehouse?
By the time they found him, they had already disembarked.
"Yeah." Mo Ruyan responded lightly, but her eyes lingered on Wen Nianchu's face thoughtfully for a moment.
