I Just Wanted the Female Leads to Get Rid of the Scumbag, But I Ended Up Becoming a Cuckold?

As a pure love (pure romance) enthusiast, Xia Che was furious after reading a certain manga.

Despite claiming to be pure romance, the male lead in the manga had despicable methods.

He u...

Chapter Seven: Heartless Parents

Shen Yanxin is indeed very beautiful and deserves the title of school beauty, a fact that Xia Che does not deny.

He wasn't the kind of person who was fakely aloof; he had no reason to refuse opportunities to build good relationships with beautiful women.

However, the situation is different for those who are deeply troubled.

She has a true destined one.

Xia Che had read the original novel and knew clearly that before Shen Yanxin was manipulated by Li Junyang, she had a childhood sweetheart with whom she had a good relationship, and this person was Shen Yanxin's true destiny.

It's suitable in every way.

He is an upright person, emotionally stable, and ambitious. It can be said that if it weren't for the scoundrel Li Junyang interfering and using his schemes to trick Shen Yanxin, this childhood sweetheart would have been Shen Yanxin's true official match.

Xia Che knew he was just a passerby. After helping the female protagonists see the true colors of the scumbag men and help them sever their feelings, he would return to the present world. He couldn't take anyone or anything from here with him.

If that's the case, why create unnecessary complications?

Xia Che was happy to see Shen Yanxin find her true home.

"After all, all five female protagonists in this comic are pitiful characters..."

Xia Che strolled home, his arms propped up on his head.

"What kind of method should we think of to make Shen Yanxin see Li Junyang's true colors? According to the plot, Shen Yanxin shouldn't have much affection for Li Junyang yet. Besides, according to the plot, I'm just a minor character, so Li Junyang shouldn't have any impression of me."

"Using a calculated attack to catch the unsuspecting, it shouldn't be too difficult to make this scumbag reveal his beastly nature..."

"Forget it, let's just take it one step at a time."

Xia Che hummed a song, simply putting his worries behind him.

Since it's only been one day since his soul transmigrated here, Xia Che isn't in a hurry at all.

...

Even after Xia Che left, Shen Yanxin was still in a daze, standing there blankly, her small hands tightly clutching the coat he had given her.

"You want me to...rely on myself?"

He murmured to himself, his expression filled with confusion.

She has always been confident in her charm, but today she failed miserably.

Although even Shen Yanxin herself couldn't explain why she had different feelings for Xia Che, the feeling of being rejected was real.

"Little girl, are you alright?"

Suddenly, a kind-looking sanitation worker called out, waking Shen Yanxin from her reverie. Only then did she realize that she had been lost in thought for quite a while. Shen Yanxin forced a smile, shook her head, and indicated that she did not need help.

She then wrapped her coat tighter around herself and headed home.

His steps were a little heavy.

Lost in thought, Shen Yanxin didn't notice that not far behind her, around the corner, a face with gritted teeth suddenly appeared in the darkness.

"It's that kid again... why is it him again?"

"This is the second time, Xia Che. You're just a small-time thug. Do you really think I wouldn't dare to mess with you?"

"You ruined my plans twice, I'll remember this!"

Just then, because it was already completely dark, the shops along the road turned on the LED lights on their signs. The lights were very bright and illuminated the dark corner.

Li Junyang clenched his fists tightly and then slammed them heavily against the wall. His expression was so angry that he looked like he wanted to devour someone. Unlike his usual gentleness, now that there were no outsiders around, he no longer needed to pretend. His eyes were fierce, as if he wanted to devour someone.

"You just wait..."

Li Junyang let out a deep breath, slowly took a few steps back, and his figure disappeared back into the darkness. Then he turned and left, leaving only a series of footsteps that grew louder as they faded into the distance, suppressing his anger.

This scoundrel, whom he had never given a second glance, had ruined his plans twice in one day. Xia Che's name appeared in Li Junyang's mind for the first time, leaving a deep impression on him.

...

Jiang City, Lishi Quyuan.

This is a luxury residential area in Jiang City, and it was the house that the heartless parents left for the original owner to live in. After receiving the original owner's memories, Xia Che felt that these parents were truly heartless.

The whole family ran away abroad, leaving the original owner alone in the country. Is this something a human being would do?

Moreover, the reason given for leaving the original owner alone in the country was the absurd claim that she was "disappointed in him"!

The Bull Demon King's.

For the first time, Xia Che wanted to stand up for the original owner of this body.

No matter how much you look down on the original owner, he is still your own son. He's so rich now, what bad habits can't he change?

Besides, if you have the money to go abroad, what's wrong with raising a good-for-nothing son? Will he die?

Do they really want to leave the original owner of this body alone in the country, like an orphan, before they'll be satisfied?

Or is it that letting the original owner struggle to survive alone will change his opinion of him?

That's pure nonsense.

Of course, Xia Che was just a passerby in the soul transmigration. He was originally an orphan in the real world. Having never experienced family love, he had no sense of belonging to the original owner's parents. So, calling him "heartless" is not too much of an exaggeration.

"Thinking about it this way, I really feel sorry for the original owner. I'm alright, I was an orphan to begin with, I'm used to not having parents, but the original owner wasn't like that. She had parents but it was like she didn't have any, it was pretty tragic..."

Xia Che took out his keys from his pocket, clicking his tongue in amazement. Suddenly, his hand, which was about to open the door, paused slightly as he caught a glimpse of the flyer posted on the door.

Small ads?

Xia Che reached out and tore off the flyer. After reading the contents, he suddenly understood.

"So it was to find a roommate... Oops, I almost forgot."

Xia Che touched his chin. Before, things were fine. Although his parents were heartless, they still gave the original owner a generous allowance, far exceeding the normal expenses of his peers.

But for the past six months, I don't know why, the living expenses given to the original owner have been decreasing. At first, the original owner was able to make ends meet for a while with the money he had saved, but as the days went by, his savings dwindled and his life became increasingly difficult.

Out of desperation, since the apartment he had was a three-bedroom, one-living-room unit that he couldn't fit in all by himself, he simply posted a flyer in the neighborhood looking for a roommate, hoping to earn some rent to cover his living expenses.

But Lishi Quyuan is an upscale residential area, and only a small number of people would choose to rent a house here.

People who choose to rent in upscale neighborhoods are likely to live alone and are too lazy to share with others. However, those who need to share but don't have enough money in their pockets won't choose to rent in upscale neighborhoods. So, although the original owner put up the flyers, no one has shown any interest for a long time.

"This silly boy, he should have written down the exact rent details too. Otherwise, if people see it's a high-end neighborhood, they'll think the rent is too expensive, and even if they want to rent it, they'll probably back out..."

Xia Che chuckled and shook his head. Just as he was about to throw the flyer away, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the end of the flyer.

There was a neatly written phone number in elegant handwriting, along with a message: "Hello, are you still looking for a roommate?"

Xia Che was shocked.

They actually managed to recruit them?

And look at this font...

The other person is very likely a girl.
