Chapter 294 The "Poor Little Thing" in a Matriarchal World (14)



Zhao Xian looked at Xu Nian with a ghost-like expression.

Didn't she say she wasn't interested in him?

What does it mean that she's been showering him with attention and always going out with him?

Did she regret it?

It's no use for her to regret it; he will never like her.

As Zhao Xian thought this to herself, she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.

"Ugh! System, did you see that? Zhao Xian is smiling so sweetly at the original female lead again. With his oblivious love, I think I have no chance," Qu Nuannuan complained to the system.

She was truly desperate.

She pursued Zhao Xian for over half a month, and her favorability rating went from zero at the beginning to negative seventy now.

No matter what she did, Zhao Xian hated her intensely.

No matter what Xu Nian did, Zhao Xian accepted it all.

With such drastic differential treatment, Qu Nuannuan watched helplessly as Zhao Xian's favorability towards Xu Nian rose from forty to sixty.

Compared to her negative seventy, she was so angry she felt like vomiting blood.

"Then I'll give you a different target. Go after Yu Hao. He's vain and the easiest of the original female lead's men to win over." The system's mechanical voice sounded like heavenly music to Qu Nuannuan at that moment.

In the original story, Yu Hao only cared about money and not people, and almost didn't marry Xu Nian.

Qu Nuannuan felt confident that she could win over Hao, a man of such influence.

As soon as the afternoon session ended, Qu Nuannuan went to the Yu family home according to the system's instructions.

Xu Nian watched her departing figure, propping her head up with her hand and smiling playfully.

I wonder what expression Qu Nuannuan will have when she sees the Yu family home empty.

"Xu Nian, Qu Nuannuan is going to find your fiancé Yu Hao. Aren't you worried at all?" Zhao Xian leaned over at this moment, her androgynous face showing a look of anticipation.

“She can’t find Yu Hao.” Xu Nian casually raised her hand and pushed Zhao Xian’s head away from her shoulder.

I don't know what's wrong with this person, he always likes to get close to her.

"Xu Nian, you've hidden Yu Hao?" Zhao Xian slumped onto the table, following the force of Xu Nian's grip.

Even he himself didn't realize that his eyes, when he looked at Xu Nian, were filled with helpless indulgence.

"I didn't hide. To be honest, I don't know where Yu Hao is right now!" Xu Nian shrugged.

She asked Ye Lin to help reform Yu Hao, but she never inquired about the matter.

She didn't ask, and Yu Hao was able to live on unscathed.

Since she asked, the outcome is uncertain.

“Yu Hao is missing, but you’re not worried. It seems like the place he went to is very safe!” Zhao Xian sat up straight, straightened her dress, and decided to go home now.

Knowing that Qu Nuannuan would no longer bother him, he saw no need to get together with Xu Nian anymore.

To be honest, he really liked Xu Nian. If only she hadn't been entangled with other men.

It's just that he discovered his feelings too late, missing the chance to take advantage of his proximity.

He is Zhao Xian, the one and only Zhao Xian.

He would never be someone's mistress, no matter how much he likes someone.

After packing up her books, Zhao Xian walked to the school gate and waved to Xu Nian from afar, a relieved smile on her face. "Goodbye, Xu Nian!"

Xu Nian watched Zhao Xian's retreating figure and said in return, "Goodbye, Zhao Xian!"

It was just a simple farewell, but both of them understood what the other meant.

Zhao Xian is saying goodbye to her feelings for Xu Nian.

Xu Nian is saying goodbye to the troubles that her selfishness has caused Zhao Xian.

I promised myself I wouldn't mess with him, but because I was greedy for points, he got caught up in it.

With mixed feelings, Xu Nian packed up her books and returned to the Xu family home alone.

After dinner, Xu Nian chatted with her father for a while before returning to her room.

As night fell and Xu's father went to sleep, Ye Lin arrived quietly.

Upon seeing him, Xu Nian knew with just one glance that he was in an extremely bad mood.

"Ye Lin, who upset you?" Xu Nian asked anxiously. For some reason, she felt that Ye Lin's gaze was unfriendly.

Did he find out about Zhao Xian's affair?

No, even if we get caught, we can't admit it.

Suspicion and acknowledging the truth are two different things. Although he might tease her a bit, he wouldn't go too far with the former.

The latter, she feared she would need to rest for a while.

"My lady, have you been having a good time lately?" Ye Lin asked, a knowing smile playing on his lips.

While seemingly talking to Xu Nian, his gaze casually swept over the room's furnishings, and a wicked thought surfaced in his mind.

"What? Did you have fun?" Xu Nian's heart was pounding, but her expression remained calm, and she stubbornly refused to reveal any flaws.

"Of course it's Zhao Xian! My lady, you don't really think you can hide his affairs from me, do you?" Ye Lin approached dangerously, a contemptuous sneer appearing in his amorous peach blossom eyes.

He was laughing at Xu Nian's overestimation of her abilities, and also at himself for easily believing her.

"Ye Lin, I don't understand what you're saying!" Xu Nian bit her lower lip, refusing to admit that she had any relationship with Zhao Xian.

"It's okay if you don't understand, I'll show you with my actions." Ye Lin scoffed lightly, reached out, and pulled Xu Nian into his arms.

While the two were talking, he had already blocked all her escape routes.

"Ye Lin, what are you doing?" Xu Nian hurriedly grabbed the large hand that had slipped inside her clothes, stopping him from doing anything further.

She was speechless. What was this guy thinking? Why was he trying to seduce her without warning...?

"Can't you see my intentions, Niannian?" Ye Lin leaned closer to Xu Nian and chuckled in her ear.

The laughter so close by made Xu Nian's ears itch. She tilted her head back to avoid it, and when she looked up, she met Ye Lin's ambiguous smile.
