Meet the male protagonist
The sun was shining brightly and the air was hot and unbearable.
Yu Yueyue walked on the road, beads of sweat forming on her fair forehead, and her hair dampened. She would occasionally lower her eyes to look at the yellowed tips of her shoes, feeling depressed and downcast.
She had clearly paid off the money she owed to others today, but she just couldn't be happy.
After her grandmother died, she was left alone, relying on the will to make money to pay off her debts every day. Now that the debts have been paid off, Yu Yueyue feels particularly empty.
There is nothing left in this world worth her staying for.
Yu Yueyue looked up and saw a large truck rushing towards her uncontrollably.
With a thud, Yu Yueyue was knocked to the scorching ground. Darkness fell before her eyes, and she felt no pain. Then, a powerful force tore through her body, and memories of the past surfaced in her mind bit by bit, slowly tormenting her...
Her mother died after giving birth to her, which seemed to foreshadow her unfortunate existence. Her father soon fell seriously ill and passed away. It was her grandmother who painstakingly raised her, fighting off the little brats who called her a jinx and telling her she wasn't meant to be. But not long after she graduated from college, her grandmother fell ill and passed away. She cried for a long, long time...
In her next life, Yu Yueyue hopes that her family will never meet her again, and stay as far away from this unfortunate person as possible.
…
The red sun rises slowly from the horizon, the sea water hits the shore from time to time, caressing the fine sand, and the sound of flowing water spreads from near to far.
Yu Yueyue lay on the beach and slowly opened her eyes. Her thick, long eyelashes were covered with fine, transparent water droplets, and her soft, messy hair was moist. She was wet all over, and a layer of coolness covered her fair skin.
The sound of waves around her gradually became clearer. Yu Yueyue stood up with some difficulty. Her fair feet sank lightly into the fine sand. Her wet white dress stuck to her soft and smooth skin, outlining a wonderful curve.
The sea breeze blew by, Yu Yueyue's lips turned pale, and she looked at the endless blue sea with confused eyes, looking pitiful. Just when she thought she was in hell, a crisp machine sound rang in her mind.
"Hello host, I am System 009. Welcome to the world of the novel '99 Kinds of Exclusive Love from a Domineering CEO'..."
A lot of information flooded into Yu Yueyue's mind, and her eyes were confused.
It turned out that she was transmigrated into a novel called "99 Kinds of Exclusive Favors of a Domineering CEO" and was reborn as Yu Yueyue, a vicious female supporting character with the same name as her. Her original body was a cannon fodder female supporting character who was not only pretentious but also liked to mock and ridicule others. She acted condescending all day long and offended many people invisibly.
According to the novel's plot, the original self managed to curry favor with the merchant lord and was successfully engaged to the male protagonist, Shang Xu. However, the original self was extremely self-deprecating, repeatedly crossing Shang Xu's boundaries. Within a few days, the engagement was abruptly cancelled by Shang Xu, instantly making the original self the laughing stock of the wealthy and aristocratic families. Not long after, Shang Xu and the original self's mortal enemy, the novel's heroine, fell in love at first sight and were about to marry. The original self, enraged and unable to accept this humiliation, rushed to disrupt the wedding and tragically died in a car accident on the way.
However, the plot of the novel suddenly changed. Shortly after the original character got engaged to the male protagonist, she was hunted down and died in a car accident prematurely, causing the plot of the novel to develop in an unknown direction.
Yu Yueyue traveled to the day after her original body was murdered.
Yu Yueyue never expected that she did not die in the car accident, but was transmigrated into a novel about a domineering boss, living as a cannon fodder female supporting role. Moreover, the original boss not only had the same name as her, but also looked exactly like her.
The clear and transparent water reflected the girl's pretty and innocent face, which she was particularly familiar with.
System 009: "So, System Headquarters sent me to bind to you to fill in the loopholes in the novel and make the plot develop in a reasonable direction. To this end, please fully cooperate with System 009 and complete the tasks issued by the system in a timely manner. Otherwise, you will suffer a long period of painful punishment."
Failure to complete the task will result in painful punishment? !
Yu Yueyue's heart tightened. She was most afraid of pain since she was a child. She couldn't help crying when the pain was severe.
"Can, can we change the punishment?" Yu Yueyue paused, then said without any emotion, "How about changing it to death."
System 009: "No, host, you must cherish your hard-earned life and retract your negative thoughts."
The slightly playful sound of the machine echoed in her head. Yu Yueyue felt a slight headache and said helplessly, "Okay, what task do I need to complete to avoid the pain punishment?"
Then, the sound of the machine returned to its normal voice and echoed in her mind.
System 009 said seriously, "Host, next you must complete the task issued by System 009 to capture the male protagonist on time. You will gain pain-free points to delay the pain penalty. One point of pain-free points can delay the pain penalty for one hour."
Yu Yueyue was shocked and said in disbelief, "Am I not the female supporting role? How could I possibly be trying to capture the male lead?"
System 009: "Due to a sudden change in the novel's plot, System Headquarters has changed the novel's title to 'The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character Becomes the Female Lead in Progress.' Therefore, I will issue the quest to capture the male lead as scheduled to help you, the host, become the female lead."
...So she's going to be the heroine?!
"Okay." Yu Yueyue lowered her head, her tone sullen, not very happy.
She had never been in a relationship before, and now she was forced to be tied to a strange man and try to conquer him, which gave her a headache.
System 009 gave an awkward yet polite smile. "Once the male protagonist appears, the system will immediately issue a mission. Please note the deadline. Also, the system is running low on battery, so I need to log off to recharge."
Yu Yueyue hurriedly said, "Hey, don't go yet. Where should I go back to? How can I go back?"
System 009's voice gradually became lower: "Return to the Yu family villa..."
The sound of the machine stopped abruptly, and only the sound of waves could be heard from near to far. Yu Yueyue returned to her original lonely state. She felt empty in her heart and suddenly missed System 009 very much.
It seems I have to walk back alone.
Yu Yueyue sighed and walked barefoot towards the deserted road.
The sun was high in the blue sky, and the road was getting hot.
The white and soft feet pressed tightly against the hot road, turning crimson.
In the sunlight, her hair and white dress were half dry and half wet.
Yu Yueyue walked along the road for a long time, enduring the burning and painful feeling on the soles of her feet, but she didn't see a single car passing by. It seemed that she was really unlucky.
*
A black car was speeding on the deserted road.
Inside the car, a proud and noble man sat in the back, answering the phone.
Shang Xu's face was emotionless, and he said coldly: "I know, I'm going back to City A now, and I'll go there tomorrow."
When there was no sound on the other end, he hung up the phone and put it in his pocket.
Then, the car suddenly stopped. Shang Xu leaned forward instinctively and made a light click of the tongue.
His cold gaze shifted to the fearless woman outside.
Yu Yueyue successfully stopped the car, slowly opened her eyes and took a deep breath.
The car window slowly rolled down, and she looked at the middle-aged man sitting in the driver's seat and asked gently, "Excuse me, sir, could you give me a ride?"
Butler Lu saw the woman in front of him clearly, his expression changed, and he turned to look at the man behind him, and said hesitantly: "Young, young master... do you want to let this young lady get in the car?"
Shang Xu opened his eyelids and casually glanced at the disheveled woman outside. He instantly saw through her malicious intentions and sneered, "Let's go, drive."
He frowned slightly.
...What tricks is this woman playing again?
A cold and ruthless voice sounded, and the car window slowly rose up, ready to drive away.
Yu Yueyue hurriedly used her body to stop the car, her clear and bright eyes fixed on the young and noble man in the back seat. She said earnestly, "Sir, please let me get in the car. I really can't walk anymore. Don't worry, I will definitely pay you a lot later."
He could faintly hear the woman's aggrieved voice and saw those eyes that seemed to be filled with tears. Shang Xu inexplicably felt a little impatient and said in a slightly impatient tone: "Butler Lu, tell her to get in the car."
"Yes, Master."
The car window began to slowly move down before it was completely closed.
Butler Lu said politely, "Miss, please get in the car."
"Okay, okay, thank you." Yu Yueyue stared at the man in the back seat gratefully, then got into the car impatiently.
Yu Yueyue sat next to the man, one seat away from him, and could faintly smell the refreshing mint scent on him.
"Sorry, I'm a little wet. I hope you don't mind." She lowered her voice, a hint of guilt on her face.
"Yeah." He looked indifferent, but his cold voice sounded very nice.
Along the way, the car was very quiet and neither of them spoke.
The man was wearing a black suit, with broad shoulders, long legs, fair skin, and a superior appearance. He was definitely a handsome guy. He lowered his eyes, his gaze fixed on the screen of his phone, serious and calm, seemingly dealing with work matters, automatically ignoring the woman next to him.
The man looked cold and inhuman, and very oppressive. Yu Yueyue felt particularly uncomfortable sitting next to him, staring blankly out the window.
After a while, a group of houses of uneven heights came into her sight. A light flashed in Yu Yueyue's eyes and her mood became happy. She finally arrived in City A.
"Where are you going?"
A cold voice sounded, it was from the man next to him.
She said: "Yu..." villa.
“Beep—”
A crisp mechanical sound emerged in her mind, and Yu Yueyue swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
System 009 suddenly became excited: "The male protagonist Shang Xu appears. Host, please make him laugh within 10 minutes. If the task is successful, the pain exemption value will be +1. 1 point of pain exemption value will delay the pain penalty for one hour. If the task fails, the host will immediately receive the pain penalty."
"A reminder to the host: the pain penalty can only be delayed, not eliminated. Please always keep an eye on your remaining pain-free points. Also, after the initial mission is completed, it will become a long-term mission. This means you can perform this mission at any time to gain the corresponding pain-free points and delay the pain penalty. However, the initial mission must be completed on time, and the pain-free points cannot delay the pain penalty."
Knowing that the cold and ruthless man next to her was the male protagonist, Yu Yueyue's face instantly turned bad, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her palms, and she said blankly: "Yu..."
Shang Xu shifted his gaze to her. Seeing that she hesitated for a long time without replying to his question, he said coldly, "Where are you going?"
"I'm sorry, I suddenly forgot the address. I'll just find a place to get off later." Yu Yueyue turned her face away, not daring to look at him. "Thank you."
"Okay." Shang Xu withdrew his gaze, and some unknown emotions emerged in his eyes.
Then, Yu Yueyue turned to look at him and said with a forced smile, "Sir, are you feeling bored? Let me tell you a joke."
But he refused indifferently: "No need."
Yu Yueyue remained calm and undaunted, smiling as always, "Then let me tell you something funny that happened to me in the past."
After he finished speaking, Shang Xu opened his eyelids and looked at her, with a look of interest in his eyes, but it only lasted for a moment.
Seeing his reaction, Yu Yueyue suddenly felt that this difficult task had hope. She smiled and said, "When I was a child, I thought that seeds in my stomach would sprout and grow, so every summer I would cut the watermelon into small pieces, pick out the watermelon seeds inside, and feed them to my dog. But one time, after I finished picking out the watermelon seeds, I turned around and saw that my dog had eaten up my portion of the watermelon with seeds. I cried and hugged the dog to my grandma, hesitating and saying that it was dying..."
Yu Yueyue recounted the funny things that happened in her childhood in one breath, thinking that Shang Youn would find it funny. However, he didn't. He stared at her seriously the whole time, without raising his thin lips even a little.
It’s so hard to make him laugh!!!
Yu Yueyue asked anxiously, "Why aren't you smiling?"
Shang Xu pulled his lips and said bluntly: "It's a bit silly."
Yu Yueyue: “…”
She stared at his face without a smile, feeling angry and helpless.
I think she's stupid, why doesn't she smile?!
In the end, Yu Yueyue accepted her fate. This mission was doomed to fail, and she was doomed to not escape the painful punishment.
System 009 reminds: "Last fifteen seconds."
Even if she was in excruciating pain, she would never let the man next to her see it!
Yu Yueyue bit her lip and hurriedly shouted, "Driver, I want to get off..."
A black car stopped at the intersection. Yu Yueyue pushed open the door and stood up to get out of the car, but unexpectedly she tripped over her own foot and fell directly to the ground. She supported herself on the ground with her hands, and her white legs were slightly scratched.
Yu Yueyue lay on the ground, groaning, her cheeks flushed with shame. She wished she could cover Shang Xu's eyes right now, not wanting him to see her making such a fool of herself.
Shang Xu glanced at the woman and then looked away, with the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly.
"Pain punishment warning, three, two..."
Yu Yueyue frowned, slowly stood up, and prepared to accept the so-called painful punishment.
Unexpectedly, System 009 prompted: "Mission completed, pain-free value +1."
Yu Yueyue stood there in a daze, and only reacted belatedly.
The cool and arrogant CEO actually...
The character collapsed? ! !
