Xu Nian entered a new mission world, and after reading the script for this world, she felt completely numb.
What a messed up world this is! The original male lead was a domineering CEO, the reborn protagonist is a grassroots success story, and the transmigrator is a down-on-his-luck rich second-generation who rises to power.
"Yuanbao, what is my mission in this world?" Xu Nian asked, rubbing his temples in pain.
"Host, there is only one protagonist in each world. Your mission is to find the true male protagonist of the current world," Yuanbao said, manipulating the screen data in the system space.
"There are three people, but only one is the main character. What about the other two?" Xu Nian asked, puzzled.
"Host, then it depends on whether they are good people or not." Yuanbao's meaning was clear: if the remaining two behaved well, they would be left alone; if they did something bad, then they should go wherever they wanted.
"Yuanbao, what if the male lead did something bad?" Xu Nian asked, squinting and resting her chin on her hand.
“If the host has the ability, he can also be sent in,” Yuanbao chuckled.
"I thought the male lead would have special privileges!" Xu Nian smiled gently, looking at the bustling road outside, her eyes shining brightly.
“How could that be? Host, this is a society governed by law. Even the male lead has to abide by the law,” Yuanbao grumbled.
"Oh! I understand. The male protagonist needs to abide by the law in a society governed by the rule of law, but in other worlds he only needs to abide by the moral bottom line, right?" Xu Nian understood, but after thinking about it, she felt relieved.
Different living environments naturally impose different limitations.
"That's right, host is really smart," Yuanbao praised.
“Yuanbao, my identity this time is just cannon fodder. My parents are nouveau riche. After their unexpected death, they left me a huge inheritance. I have no ability but control a huge fortune. What a big piece of cake!” Xu Nian crossed her legs without any regard for her image, stirring her coffee with a half-smile, her bright eyes slightly darkening.
"What does the host want to do?" Yuanbao scratched its head. It was in the system space, and even if it wanted to help, it couldn't!
"Yuanbao, I'm kicking the reborn person out of the game right now, you don't have any objections, do you?" Xu Nian said with a squinty smile.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for eliminating one male lead candidate." Yuanbao cheered.
"Host, host, how do you know that the reborn person isn't the male lead?"
"I don't like him because he's a freeloader," Xu Nian said stubbornly.
In the original storyline, the reborn person, in order to quickly accumulate wealth, schemed to get close to the original owner and completely deceived him.
He tricked the original owner out of her money, then turned around and got together with another woman, even mocking the original owner for being all looks and no brains, calling her a pretty but brainless good-for-nothing.
They have no taste and don't know how to appreciate things.
The original owner had an excellent figure and was a kind and honest person who treated others wholeheartedly. However, in the mouths of these people whose minds are full of scheming and despicable people, they became all sorts of bad people.
He likes innocent, pure-hearted girls, yet he demands that everyone else be innocent and pure-hearted. How beautiful he is!
Why not kick him out now, instead of trying to get close to him and curry favor with him?
There are two more candidates: a domineering CEO and a rising rich second-generation. Both of them are difficult to approach due to their vision and cunning.
It's unrealistic to work for their company; it's difficult for junior employees to get close to the company's senior management. It seems like we can only bump into each other by chance.
Having made up her mind, Xu Nian stood up to leave, but bumped into someone as soon as she stood up.
"Why are you suddenly standing next to someone without saying a word?" Xu Nian covered her forehead, tears welling up in her eyes from the pain.
Doesn't this person's chin hurt?
She had just heard a "thump," yet he could still stare at her without changing his expression.
"Excuse me, do you want to go to the hospital to get checked out?" the man asked in a deep voice.
"No need, just be more careful next time." Xu Nian muttered to herself and turned to leave, but the man grabbed her and pulled her back.
Wearing high heels, Xu Nian stumbled, and a strong arm suddenly appeared around her waist.
"Sir, why did you pull me so hard?" Xu Nian was furious. He had been standing silently next to her, causing her to bump her forehead as soon as she stood up.
He pulled her back forcefully when she tried to leave, as if he was afraid she would run away; it was really rude.
"I'm sorry, are you alright? I didn't mean to." He hadn't expected her to be so delicate. He swore he hadn't used much force; he just wanted to pull her back so he could get her contact information.
Now that he seems to have messed things up, she dislikes him even more.
Xu Nian took a deep breath, then another, and only after calming down did she refrain from cursing at the person who had appeared out of nowhere.
"I'm fine, sir, could you please let go of me?" Xu Nian forced a smile as she tried to pry open the large hand around her waist, only to find that no matter how hard she tried, the other person wouldn't let go.
Even though she had made herself perfectly clear, he remained unmoved.
Oh my god, she's run into a pervert.
He groped her in broad daylight, plotting something nefarious.
“Sir, if you don’t let go, I’ll have to call the police and say you’re harassing me,” Xu Nian said coldly as she took out her phone.
Upon hearing this, the man pursed his lips and stared at her with his deep eyes for a long time. Just as Xu Nian's patience ran out, he finally reluctantly let go.
"I'm sorry about what happened earlier. My name is Zhou Lingjing. You can tell me what kind of compensation you need." Xu Nian looked at Zhou Lingjing in surprise after he said that.
This person must be out of their mind!
Didn't you see she was about to leave without even complaining? He pulled her back because he wanted to compensate her!
Just as Xu Nian was mentally complaining, she suddenly felt that the name Zhou Lingjing sounded familiar.
Wait, isn't that the name of that domineering CEO?
With a cold face and a serious demeanor, he spoke in a domineering manner, always asking for compensation directly – definitely a domineering CEO.
Knowing that he was Zhou Lingjing, Xu Nian was not in a hurry to leave, but instead sat back in her previous seat.
She looked him up and down, making him extremely nervous. "Zhou Lingjing, what are you doing here?"
A domineering CEO shouldn't be working in his office. Suddenly appearing in this coffee shop and silently walking up to her side seems suspicious.
"My mother is pressuring me to get married." Zhou Lingjing's Adam's apple bobbed several times as he came up with a lame excuse.
"Oh! You're here for a blind date." Xu Nian was well-versed in the routines of domineering CEOs: meeting the female lead on a blind date, encountering the female lead in the wrong room, sleeping with the female lead while drunk, meeting the female lead on the street... There are countless similar scenarios, so I won't go into detail.
"No, I fell in love with you at first sight. Will you marry me?" Zhou Lingjing remained expressionless, but his ardent gaze made Xu Nian subconsciously turn her head away from him.
"Mr. Zhou, you're joking. Have you ever met anyone who says they want to get married right away?" Xu Nian was speechless.
He really is a domineering CEO, and a classic one at that. His thought process is just different from ordinary people.
