Chapter 191 Couple Joins Forces, Buffs Stacked to Max
Mu Chuji rolled her eyes, her eyes filled with absurdity.
"Sow discord? You want me to sow discord between them now?"
She recalled the intense battle that had lasted for several hours in the office just now.
That man's intense possessiveness and dependence on Su Ruan meant he couldn't live without her!
"System, wake up! Yan Tingnan only has Su Ruan in his eyes and heart right now!"
"You want me to sow discord? With what? With my head?"
"They're a married couple teaming up, with all their buffs stacked up, and I, a bronze player, am challenging a master-level match?"
"If I go over there now, am I asking for trouble, or do I want them to slap me in the face loud enough?"
The system remained silent for a moment.
[Host, negative emotions are detrimental to task execution.]
Based on the current plot developments and the current state of the target character, Yan Tingnan, the success rate of the conventional romance strategy has dropped below 10%.
"Oh, what about the remaining 10%?"
Mu Chuji mocked herself.
"Thank you so much for your kind offer."
Therefore, a change in strategy is recommended.
[Logic determines that trust has a foundation, but it can also be destroyed. Yan Tingnan is suspicious, and Su Ruan is his only weakness.]
[If, at a crucial juncture, Yan Tingnan mistakenly believes that Su Ruan and Yan Hongyi have joined forces, there is a possibility of betrayal...]
To be precise, it's a targeted attack on the core of trust. People like Yan Tingnan can tolerate emotional fluctuations, but they will never tolerate their core interests being touched, especially betrayal from their closest confidants.
The system calmly and systematically presented its findings.
[Once the seed of doubt is successfully planted, the resulting rift will far exceed any emotional conflict. At that point, the plot's pull might seize the opportunity to turn the tide.]
Mu Chuji lay on the ground, processing the system's words.
How could he make Yan Tingnan misunderstand that Su Ruan betrayed him?
While he was fighting on the front lines and making every effort to close the net, he was stabbed in the back by the person he trusted most.
That's a really vicious trick.
"Again?"
"What kind of awful ideas, like those of a vicious female supporting character, are you coming up with?"
"Tonight I did as you said to create a misunderstanding, and what happened?"
"Their relationship only got better through arguments, and they even started having office play. I was forced to lie at the door and eavesdrop for three hours!"
"This backlash almost killed me!"
"If I did it again, I'd probably just die on the spot. I wouldn't even need the box; it would only weigh five pounds!"
"System, wake up! According to Yan Tingnan's current character, if he really misunderstands Su Ruan's betrayal, his first reaction would definitely be to drag Su Ruan back, lock her up, and force himself on her a hundred times, and then beg Su Ruan like a dog not to leave him!"
"And while you're at it, grind me to dust! Turning your attention to me? You'd be more likely to turn your attention to the crematorium!"
She felt a wave of fear when she recalled the excruciating pain and mental torment caused by the backlash.
This lousy mission, this awful plot, and this pair of treacherous people who don't play by the rules!
What sins did she commit to deserve being transported into this book and suffering like this?
She finally understood that the success rate of this broken system was just as unreliable as a man's words.
[...]
The system seemed to freeze for a moment.
Host analysis has a certain probability of success, but it is currently the most successful method.
The task involves risks, but the rewards are substantial.
The system started making empty promises.
[Given the increased difficulty of the current mission and the host's physical condition, a temporary allocation of resources may be requested.]
Mu Chuji's ears perked up instantly, but her tone remained subdued.
"Slanted? For example?"
[During the mission, the host's physical attributes are temporarily increased by 50%, and pain sensitivity is reduced by 80%, ensuring they can withstand higher-intensity backlash from the storyline.]
Oh ho, the miser has finally plucked his feathers?
Mu Chuji felt a little better and continued to increase the stakes.
"If this mission fails again, you can't punish me directly. You have to give me a chance to make amends!"
"Like, perhaps we could change the direction of the mission? We can't put all our eggs in one basket!"
Mu Chuji went all out.
"Either change the terms, or I'm lying down right now and you can find another sucker host! We might as well die together!"
The system was silent for a bit longer this time.
[Yes, if this plan fails, the system will reassess the storyline and grant the host the option to choose an alternative mission.]
Mu Chuji was making her own plans.
It feels like we can survive another wave?
Although the outlook remains bleak, at least they managed to negotiate and secure some safety net and a way out.
"make a deal!"
Mu Chuji immediately made the decision, fearing that the system might change its mind.
She sniffed.
"Tell me, what's the next step? How exactly do you plan to sow discord?"
"You can't just go up to Yan Tingnan and tell him that your wife is having an affair with your grandfather, can you?"
The system screen flickered, and new task details slowly appeared.
Plan A: Utilize Yan Hongyi...
A new round of reckless attempts is about to begin.
Mu Chuji finished reading the system's plan.
It's complicated, far too complicated.
Sowing discord, planting suspicion, precisely targeting the core of trust...
Just by reading through these steps, she felt even weaker from the backlash that had just drained her body.
She was just an ordinary office worker who couldn't even handle office politics before she transmigrated into the book. Now she's being asked to play high-level games with logical freaks like Yan Tingnan and Su Ruan?
Isn't this just feeding kills to the enemy?
never mind.
Destroy it.
Hurry up.
I'm tired.
Mu Chuji completely gave up, lying flat on her back like a salted fish washed ashore by the waves.
But the thought that she wouldn't be able to go home if she didn't go made her struggle to sit up and lean against the wall.
I took out my phone and glanced at the time: 12:30 a.m.
Hmm, an elderly person, shouldn't they be asleep by now?
It's better to sleep; being woken up makes you even angrier!
She gave a self-deprecating smirk, steeled her resolve, found Yan Hongyi's number, and dialed it.
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.
The background noise was a deep silence, and Yan Hongyi's voice was hoarse and angry, as if he had just been awakened from his sleep.
"who?"
The sound wasn't loud, but it was so oppressive it made it hard to breathe.
“Mr. Yan, it is I, Mu Chuji.”
Mu Chuji took a deep breath.
"Miss Mu."
Yan Hongyi's voice was devoid of emotion, but every word carried a chill.
Do you know what time it is?
"It's past midnight, Mr. Yan."
Mu Chuji twitched the corner of her mouth, deciding she was too lazy to pretend to be timid and cowardly anymore.
"But I'm afraid if I wait any longer, your Yan family will have to change its surname."
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Yan Hongyi's patience had clearly reached its limit, and his tone was stern.
"I think you've lost your mind!"
Am I out of my mind?
Mu Chuji laughed, a laugh tinged with self-mockery and a hint of recklessness.
"Mr. Yan, are you still dreaming that Qingyan can still function without Yan Tingnan?"
"He's at the company right now, working overtime, not to help you maintain your position."
"He's dismantling your base, sidelining your people, replacing your projects, and taking core data and key positions into his own hands one by one!"
She speaks very quickly, like pouring out beans.
"By then, what will you, as chairman, be left with? An empty shell? A mere title?"
