[Mission Objective: Qin Xi]
【Affection Value: 0】
When Ruan Qingan opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was several large, blood-red characters: "Trash! Pay up! Die!"
It was all written in red paint, covering the entire wall.
This is the old town. With economic development, this place, which has fallen behind the times, has become a so-called slum. Most of the buildings are tenement buildings or rental houses. The security situation is quite chaotic, and it is also a place where gangsters have taken root, as seen in the scene before us.
The small bungalow behind the wall was the original owner's home.
Just as Ruan Qing'an was about to go inside, she discovered that the lock on the door was broken, as if it had been kicked open. Her leaden eyes turned cold, and the next moment she saw several men walk out of the house, the fat man in the lead being none other than the gang leader.
His face was full of disgust: "This is fucking empty, there's absolutely nothing in the whole house."
"Yeah, I wonder how long it will take that bitch to pay back the money."
The others chimed in, and then they bumped right into Ruan Qing'an. After exchanging bewildered glances, the fat man yelled, "You bastard! Your gambling-addicted father is dead, and you think you can just run away with your debts?! Pay up, or come with me to the nightclub!"
But Nguyen Thanh An ignored him and instead looked at the broken lock with a headache.
In this small world, the original owner lived a very poor life. After her mother died in childbirth, only her father was left to raise her. However, her father was also unreliable. He was an alcoholic who abused the original owner when he was drunk. Not only that, he was also tricked into becoming addicted to gambling, spending all the family's money. Even after moving to the slums with the original owner, he still did not change his ways.
A month ago, the gambling father drowned in the river after getting drunk, and his huge debt to the casino was then attributed to the original owner of the body...
While Ruan Qing'an was pondering, the fat man, seeing her silent and ignoring him, grew increasingly grim. He strode forward aggressively, reaching out to grab Ruan Qing'an—
In just a moment, that slender hand grabbed the fat man's wrist, and with a shrill scream, the fat man, who had just been so fierce, was slammed against the wall. Ruan Qing'an pressed down on the back of his head with one hand, making his face press against the big red characters.
"Don't you know that interrupting someone's thinking is a very impolite thing to do?"
Ruan Qing'an smiled gently, but her hands did not stop moving in the slightest. The sudden change of events stunned the other thugs.
"You bitch, fucking pay me back—"
The fat man tried to struggle and resist, but Ruan Qing'an's grip tightened little by little. Hearing the faint sound of bones breaking, she chuckled, "Money isn't urgent. Let's calculate the cost of my door lock first."
"Ruan Qingan, are you out of your mind?!"
"Is poverty a problem?"
The fat man was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. At that moment, Ruan Qing'an finally let go. He fell to the ground with a thud, panting heavily, and took several steps back, looking at her warily.
How did this woman, who was always so weak, become like this...?
The fat man felt a little scared, so he coughed dramatically and said, "I'll let you go today!"
Immediately afterwards, he led a few people away in a sorry state, their backs looking quite disheveled. Only after they were out of sight did Ruan Qing'an lower his gaze and look again at the dilapidated door.
"Little system, with my qualifications, I should at least be the innocent and naive female lead, right?"
037: [Ah, this...]
Just as 037 couldn't answer, Ruan Qing'an's phone rang. After answering the call, a man's voice came from the other end: "Baby, pack your things, I'm coming to pick you up right away, okay?"
"..."
Ruan Qing'an was silent for a moment, while the man on the other end of the phone was clearly the authoritarian type, not caring about her reaction. The faint roar of an engine could be heard before the call was disconnected.
037 finally explained: "The person making the call was the male supporting character, Qin Yue, the older brother of the male lead, Qin Xi."
Ruan Qing'an smiled brightly, but there was a hint of murderous intent in her smile: "Then, what about me?"
She was Qin Yue's simp. Qin Yue pretended to agree to become her boyfriend in order to use her, but in reality, he wanted to use her to harm the male lead, Qin Xi.
"So, what stupid thing did the original owner do this time?"
[Actually, it wasn't too bad. Basically, they drugged the male lead and almost killed him.]
Nguyen Thanh An: ...
The male protagonist, Qin Xi, is only 21 years old this year, but he has already skipped grades and completed all his studies. He is an absolute genius in the field of computers. In today's era of advanced networks, Qin Xi controls a massive database of hundreds of millions of data points. Wherever there is a network connection, almost no one can hide from him.
In the online world, he is the uncrowned king.
However, fate is cruel to the talented. Qin Xi possesses intelligence and abilities that are the envy of ordinary people, as well as hyperthymesia with a photographic memory. But at the same time, he has suffered from a severe mental illness since childhood, and his physical condition is extremely poor. He was predicted not to live past the age of 25.
037: [This is a romance novel centered around the female protagonist, Xu Ling'er, a professional psychologist.]
"Wow, the patient and the psychologist are a perfect match."
Ruan Qingan drew out his words, a hint of ambiguous amusement in his leaden eyes.
After waiting for a while by the wall with the words "Debts must be repaid," Ruan Qingan finally saw a luxury car driving up from a distance. A man in a suit stepped out of the car, and as soon as his brand-new, high-end leather shoes touched the ground, he couldn't help but frown.
Just seeing the environment made Qin Yue's face turn very ugly. He looked up at Ruan Qing'an not far away and forced a smile: "Baby, come with me quickly."
After getting into the car, Qin Yue held the steering wheel with one hand and glanced at Ruan Qing'an's cheap clothes with disgust: "I prepared some changes of clothes for you at the Qin family home. Remember to change into them. As I said before, I took you to stay at the Qin family home to see if we are compatible in terms of living. That's why I'm considering marrying you. Baby, you have to understand me."
"Of course, I definitely understand."
Nguyen Thanh An smiled radiantly.
Qin Yue had a very good plan. He was very good at disguising himself in the Qin family and was very kind to Qin Xi, but he wanted to use the original owner to make a move against Qin Xi. Now he was just giving the original owner a little sweetness first, so that she would know how luxurious her life in the Qin family was, so that he could better win her over to do things.
Upon hearing Ruan Qing'an's affirmative answer, Qin Yue nodded in satisfaction. She was just a foolish woman; it was already an honor for her to contribute to his future career and become his girlfriend for a short period of time.
As for his wife, does Ruan Qing'an even deserve her?
...
It wasn't until half an hour later that Ruan Qingan finally arrived at the Qin family's house.
In the spacious living room, Qin Cheng was wearing glasses and looking down at the newspaper. Hearing the voice, he looked up at them and said, "Qin Yue, you're back. You said you were going to bring someone back for me today. Is this your girlfriend?"
As he spoke, Qin Cheng looked Ruan Qing'an up and down.
Ruan Qing'an stood still. Although her face was strikingly beautiful, her attitude was neither servile nor arrogant, but gentle and proper, which made her seem very likable to the elders. She spoke softly and gently: "Uncle Qin, hello, I am—"
Before Ruan Qing'an could finish speaking, the sound of a door opening came from upstairs.
A slender figure emerged from behind the door. The person was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and dark blue jeans, making him appear slim-waisted and long-legged. However, with the hood up, only the lower half of his overly young and handsome face could be seen, his complexion pale and sickly.
Ruan Qing'an looked at him, her eyes slightly narrowed. Her overly focused gaze seemed to have caught the attention of Qin Xi upstairs. When he lowered his eyes, she could vaguely feel a strong sense of oppression.
Qin Cheng explained, "Sorry, I forgot to introduce him. He is my youngest son, Qin Xi."
Finally, Ruan Qing'an smiled little by little, her beautiful lips curving upwards: "I know, Grandpa Qin, because I am the psychologist that Qin Yue invited."
Qin Yue: ? ? ?
037: ? ? ?
Only Nguyen Thanh An calmly went about his deceitful schemes—it's been said that patients and psychologists are a perfect match.
