After all, she's a cold-blooded villain... It's not just how it's written in the original work, he also experienced it firsthand. As he got older, that dog of a woman naturally became more and more cold-blooded and indifferent.

I never expected her to be such a tsundere inside, or even a loser tsundere, right? You should dye your hair blonde and become best friends with Eriri.

No, you're even worse than Eriri, you're a bad woman, so it should be Eriri Riri.

Anyway, he felt no guilt. Even if the spilled water could be taken back, it would just be a muddy mess, having lost its original clarity.

He would never touch a rose with thorns, because he might end up with blood all over his hands, and he couldn't even remove the thorns... He didn't want to use his abilities on Su Lin and Tang Shuang, and he simply couldn't use them on Xie Qingyan. Sorry, I can't do it.

But... what if the thorns on the rose fell off by themselves?

Xu Shi's expression became increasingly amused.

Indeed, bad women deserve to be severely tortured.

...

Ye Shanshan waited downstairs for Xie Qingyan, who deliberately didn't let her come along, so she had to act as his errand boy.

She played the game aimlessly for who knows how long before she saw the other person get out and into the car.

"Chairman Xie."

The curly-haired girl instantly got into character, "How did your talk with that guy surnamed Xu go? Was it alright... What's wrong?"

Xie Qingyan's condition was obvious to everyone, and she was also a little confused for a moment.

"It's nothing, drive your car."

The woman waved wearily, not really wanting to share how out of control she had just been.

But she felt like she was going to suffocate if she didn't say anything, so after driving for a few minutes, she tentatively asked, "Shanshan, am I... really that annoying?"

"No... Why would you ask that?!"

Ye Shanshan was dumbfounded. Could these words really come out of your mouth? Good heavens, this world is in chaos…

She quickly realized the reason: "Could it be that Mr. Xu upset you?"

"...I suppose so."

Xie Qingyan gave a perfunctory reply.

"oh."

The curly-haired boy nodded. "He really is that kind of person, everyone knows that."

But before Xie Qingyan could breathe a sigh of relief, she added, "However... sometimes you could try to look for the problem within yourself?"

She would never have said that before, wouldn't that be siding with outsiders... But now her attitude towards Xu Shi is really different from before, and it seems that she can't push all the blame onto that guy.

He even saved my life...

"...I...I...!"

The powder keg of that bitch was finally ignited. "Ye Shanshan, whose side are you on?!"
