[Ye Qi: Then I'll be bold, because the company is mine!]
[Si Yuelin: Hmm? It's not impossible.]
[Ye Qi: Okay, I'm greedy. All the profits the company makes this month are mine!]
[Si Yuelin: Why can't greedy people be even greedier and take the company and the boss too?]
Ye Qi thought about it and it seemed like a good idea.
[Ye Qi: That's a good suggestion. The boss can work for me, and if he doesn't meet the sales targets, I can take the deductions!]
[Si Yuelin: ...You're even more ruthless than unscrupulous capitalists.]
Ye Qi snorted.
Of course!
She's a professional capitalist!
[Si Yuelin: Okay, okay, I'll tell you the truth. There's an age limit for this competition, and Bo Tingsheng isn't old enough to participate.]
[Si Yuelin: He joined without authorization, concealing his information. I used some methods to expose his identity. Regardless of whether he wins or loses, he can't be selected as number one, but it will affect the reputation of the competition. I studied his style and taught Bo Yeming a method beforehand. It seems like a safe way to win, but in reality, it can force him into a pre-prepared trap. Once he's in, he'll be defeated by Bo Yeming's attack.]
[Si Yuelin: Bo Yeming's victory is well-deserved.]
[Ye Qi: Understood!]
Ye Qi put her phone back in her pocket.
I yawned while lying in bed and then fell asleep.
For some reason, she has been feeling very sleepy lately.
But she forgot to lock the door.
The door opened quietly, and Ye Zhixi stood at the door holding Jiujiu, looking at Ye Qi with a complicated expression. She didn't come in, but just watched her quietly from the doorway.
Then, he closed the door and left.
Ye Zhixi returned to her room.
She placed Ninety-Nine on the bed, sat down on the edge of the bed, and said in a low voice, "If Seventy-Seven were to fight 004, what would her chances of winning be?"
now--
Ye Qi, who was climbing out of the window, secretly peeked out from Ye Zhixi's window without peeking out.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, she sensed an overwhelming sadness and felt something was wrong, so she decided to climb up to Ye Zhixi's window.
She painfully pounded her leg:
Hey, give it your all, you dead leg!
Once she goes numb, she'll fall.
She is currently clinging to the window in a peculiar posture.
Just then, she heard a sound coming from inside, and she immediately put her ear close to listen.
"20%."
Hearing that the odds of winning were 20, Ye Qi's eye twitched. Was she really that weak?!
hateful!
How dare they look down on her, the future Goddess of Darkness!
Drag them all away!!
Ye Zhixi's voice came again: "...Does what you said before still count?"
Ninety-nine tilted her head in confusion: "It makes sense. As long as you, the main personality bound to the female protagonist, die, the shackles on the Ye and Shi families will be released."
Where is Bo Tingsheng?
"You crushed him to the point of no return, and at the same time, you, as the female lead, died. This story is basically a bad ending."
"A small world that's been left unfinished will be deemed unnecessary by fate."
Ye Zhixi's voice, neither sad nor happy, came through: "The primary personality is dead, but what about the other personalities?"
"Logically, we should die together, but I can use an item to help you preserve your other personalities. After all, it is my mission to let Ye Zhixi live happily."
Immediately afterwards.
Ye Zhixi's voice came with a sigh of relief: "Understood."
Ninety-Nine looked up at Ye Zhixi: "Which one do you want to choose?"
Ye Zhixi remained silent for a long time, but when she spoke again, her voice was hoarse, as if she had made a decision, yet it also contained resentment and helplessness, finally turning into a trace of compromise:
"The latter, I guess."
"Thump—"
Ye Qi's legs went numb, and she fell heavily into the flower bushes.
But ignoring the pain, she immediately moved to another spot and fled the garden in a disheveled state.
Ye Zhixi noticed the strange noise, hurriedly went to the window, stuck her head out and looked down, and everything was as before.
Ninety-Nine subtly helped her host cover up the traces: "Sister Xixi."
When Ye Zhixi heard Jiu Shijiu call her name, she turned around and walked towards Jiu Shijiu: "What's wrong?"
Ninety-Nine raised her small face, a hint of confusion appearing on her usually cold and ruthless expression: "Sister Xixi, is it worth killing yourself to bring happiness to someone else?"
"The book says that life is the most precious thing. If you lose your life, you lose everything."
"Why would you give the chance to live to someone else instead of yourself? I don't understand."
"You've only known them for a few months, haven't you?"
Ye Zhixi paused in her steps toward Jiujiu, her face revealing a weariness she hadn't dared to show anyone for some time:
"because."
"It's about feelings."
"Little 99, what's precious about people is not just life, but also feelings."
Outside the door.
All members of the Ye and Shi families were eavesdropping.
When Ye Zhixi heard that she was going to sacrifice herself for her family—
Shi Wanwan was so anxious that tears were about to flow.
She gripped Ye Ji's sleeve tightly and shook her head vigorously, silently uttering anxiously, "No! We can't let Xixi do anything foolish!"
Shi's parents, who had come back with her, pulled Shi Wanwan back and told her not to get excited and not to let Ye Zhixi find out.
Shi Yujing, who had been silent all along, was the eldest son of the Shi family. He had never interacted with Ye Zhixi before. When he heard about Ye Zhixi's enlightenment, he couldn't help but admire her courage.
The others were like ants on a hot pan, hoping Ye Zhixi wouldn't act impulsively, but they didn't know how to persuade her.
Only the two elderly men, Mr. Shi and Grandpa Ye, who had weathered many storms, understood the hidden meaning in each other's eyes with just a glance:
cooperate.

Ye Qi, limping, crawled back to her room. The moment she jumped back into the room, her aching body finally gave way, and she fell heavily onto the soft carpet.
