20. Villains Appear
In the office, Chu Xiao sat upright in a leather chair, flipping through the files of the three Wang brothers.
According to reports, the three Wang brothers are only 15 years old this year.
The triplets each possess unique abilities: the eldest has amazing stamina, the second is incredibly strong, and the youngest is exceptionally flexible.
Their parents were both children who grew up in an orphanage—the mother had a limp and the father was blind in one eye, yet they lived a vibrant and fulfilling life.
When he learned that he was pregnant with triplets, the one-eyed father worked three jobs overnight. Although life was hard, he had a lot of hope.
Unfortunately, on the eve of his wife's delivery, he was hit and killed in a green belt by a drunk driving rich second-generation.
On his deathbed, he stared wide-eyed at the fleeing rich kid, dying with his eyes wide open.
Upon hearing the devastating news, the lame mother was utterly heartbroken.
But looking at her infant children, she gritted her teeth and raised all three children on her own, tears streaming down her face.
The three brothers were also very promising.
At the private middle school, they relied on the policy of "the top 50 students in the grade are exempt from tuition fees, and the top five students receive a prize of 5,000 yuan" to ensure that their mothers never had to pay a single penny.
The eldest and third sons consistently rank in the top five year after year.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, life will continue in this difficult yet hopeful way.
The change occurred at the start of the third year of junior high school.
A disabled mother suffered severe burns when her electric scooter exploded while she was charging it.
After the incident, the entire school faculty and students actively donated money, but the million yuan raised was only enough for the initial treatment, and the subsequent costs seemed like a bottomless pit.
The three brothers wiped away their tears and came to City A for their mother, who was lying in a hospital bed.
Those under 16 years old slept in pavilions, ate steamed buns, and were exploited by unscrupulous courier points.
Until one day, a coworker saw that job posting on his social media –
"Security personnel, monthly salary of 20,000 yuan."
"..."
Chu Xiao felt that the three brothers' life experiences were all too familiar.
A one-eyed father is killed in a car accident caused by a rich kid, a lame mother is seriously injured in an explosion of a substandard electric scooter, and the three children are desperate for medical expenses...
Isn't this the early growth trajectory of the three villainous brothers in her novel?
She took a sip of tea, feeling guilty.
When she wrote "The Pancake Queen with Six Hearts," the main characters were so overpowered that she specifically created triplets as villains to give them a fighting chance.
The female lead's third husband, You Yichuan's, most beloved younger brother, You Xiaochuan, caused a hit-and-run accident while driving under the influence of alcohol, resulting in the death of their father.
Ji Shan, the beloved younger sister of the female lead's second husband Ji Zha, runs a factory selling substandard electric vehicles, which has caused great harm to their mother.
The female lead's husband, Gao Dai, is a cold and aloof cousin whom she protects the most. He is a loan shark who drove their mother to her death.
When the three brothers discover that all their enemies are closely connected to Jian Bing, they go completely mad in their fight against this behemoth.
Philip, the eldest brother, went overseas and rose from a dockworker to a business tycoon. After returning home, he specially dispatched industrial spies to steal the secret recipes of several companies and launched the "Happy Bucket Set Meal," which combines the essence of seven companies and halved the price. This sparked a price war between the two sides.
He wasn't after money; he wanted to make these people lose money, to exhaust them all, and to perish together.
Jack, the second brother, joins the dark web organization "Blood Butterfly." He spends the whole year assassinating his enemies—whether it's Ji Zha breaking in an elevator cable, Leng Ao suffering food poisoning in a fancy restaurant, or You Yichuan's bedroom chandelier suddenly collapsing…
The third brother, Dan, went to South Korea, underwent 38 surgeries on his face, and returned as a stunning successor. With his beautiful face and amazing flexibility, he became a high-ranking official's "private yoga instructor." Afterwards, several of the group's stores across the country were frequently shut down due to "hygiene issues."
With their combined efforts, the three of them were like three reckless mad dogs, leaving the main characters exhausted and overwhelmed.
To maintain an air of mystery, she only gave the villains English names—Philip, Jack, and Dan.
To everyone's surprise, the three brothers' Chinese names are Wang Dazhuang, Wang Erzhuang, and Wang Sanzhuang!
This is why she initially didn't associate the simple Wang brothers with the cunning foreign-famous gangsters.
When writing, to make the hatred seem plausible, the three villains' experiences were made as tragic as possible.
Now that these three brothers have become real people standing before him, and the stories he wrote have become their real lives, Chu Xiao felt an unusual heaviness in his heart.
After putting down the information on the three Wang brothers, she let out a long sigh.
In the real world, Chu Xiao has a clear conscience, so he has always been decisive and efficient.
But ever since I transmigrated into this novel, one troublesome thing after another has happened, and even sighing has become a habit.
She stared at her reflection in the tea, then lowered her eyes.
It's just a novel...
The scattered documents on the table, and Wang Dazhuang's bright smile, clearly told her—
This world truly exists.
Everyone bleeds, feels pain, and fights desperately for a bowl of rice.
The "tragic settings" she created to serve the plot are now pressing down on the shoulders of these three teenagers.
This realization caused Chu Xiao to suffer from pangs of conscience.
In the world of the novel, when Chu Xiao was in a bad mood, he immediately thought of the culprit system.
The most despicable thing is the system!
Let this world exist as it may; the system doesn't bring others over, but it insists on bringing her, the creator, over.
Isn't this just deliberately making things difficult for her?
So she started cursing the system in her mind.
Garbage system!
In short, it's all the system's fault.
That damn system, I hope she doesn't catch me!
Chu Xiao felt herself getting irritable again.
We still need to hurry up and advance the project to build up our forces and find the system.
She saw that the three brothers had extraordinary physiques, were brave and resourceful, and were very suitable to work for her.
"Have Assistant Liu come over." She pressed the intercom.
In less than a minute, Assistant Liu appeared in the office with astonishing speed.
He was very nervous.
I heard the boss's tone was unpleasant.
Did he take an extra half roll of toilet paper home while using the toilet at the company and get caught?
Or was it because I took a 10-liter kettle home after get off work every day to fill it with water for showering that I was reported?
Chu Xiao glanced strangely at Assistant Liu, whose forehead was constantly sweating.
Can you still sweat under an air conditioner that's 20 degrees Celsius?
Noticing the thinning hair on Assistant Liu's head, Chu Xiao suddenly realized what was going on.
It turns out it was kidney deficiency.
I never expected that Assistant Liu, who seems so honest and upright, has such a rich private life.
Seeing his boss staring at him with a strange look, Assistant Liu felt conflicted.
Should I immediately hug my boss's leg, cry and beg for forgiveness?
Since he so sincerely admitted his mistake, maybe the boss won't hold it against him!
He opened his mouth wide, ready to rush over and wail.
"Boss, I—"
"Go and do two things."
Their voices rang out simultaneously.
"First, personally ask the three Wang brothers if they're interested in signing a lifetime contract with excellent benefits. I'll cover all their mother's medical and living expenses. Second, find two reliable bodyguards." Chu Xiao finished assigning Liu's tasks in one go and took a sip of tea.
She put down her teacup and saw Assistant Liu's mouth agape: "What were you trying to say?"
"It's nothing," Assistant Liu said quietly, shutting his mouth.
"Go do your business," Chu Xiao said impatiently, trying to shoo him away.
Assistant Liu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
We can finally leave.
It seems the boss was simply assigning tasks this time, not reprimanding him.
Assistant Liu opened the heavy wooden door and walked out of the office with light steps.
"etc."--
Suddenly, the boss's voice came from behind me.
He turned around in confusion.
Seeing Assistant Liu's sweat-drenched head and his thinning hair at less than thirty years old, Chu Xiao felt it was necessary to give him a reminder.
"Some things should be done in moderation, so as not to affect work."
Assistant Liu's expression changed drastically—was the boss warning him to stop stealing the company's toilet paper?!
