The Villain's Journey of Pursuing Love (Part 2):
Ji Congwu's expression is hard to describe.
He thought his mission was—
Come to this world and find Sang Luo as a savior.
An abandoned child was taken care of and healed by him, so it wouldn't be too difficult to conquer him.
It wouldn't take long for her to reach the maximum level of favorability towards him.
He had thought it all out. He would first control some people for his own use and let them go find Sang Luo.
After finding her, create a romantic and warm scene and meet her.
And when he appears, he must leave a deep impression in her eyes.
It would be best if he appeared to her like a god descended from heaven.
result……
Not only did he become an ordinary person, but he also shrunk into the childhood tense that he hated the most.
She couldn't lift anything with her hands or shoulders, and was inexplicably beaten by a group of people, and she saw it all.
Furthermore, the timing is wrong.
At this time, Sang Luo didn't know what she had experienced.
In short, it is obvious that she has "healed on her own".
Saving or something like that is ridiculous.
At this moment, a "ding" sound rang in his mind.
The voice claiming to be the System said it was there to assist him.
"Big counterattack... cough, host, don't worry, I'm a professional. Currently, your target's favorability towards you..."
The system paused subtly:
“It’s negative.”
Ji Congwu: "..."
Not surprising at all.
The system was also surprised, but Ji Congwu was not surprised that it suddenly appeared in his mind. It was indeed a villain.
The system suggested: "I suggest you show weakness first to gain her sympathy, or at least turn her favorability score positive."
Unexpectedly, Ji Congwu suddenly asked it: "Do you know me?"
Although it is a question, the tone is firm.
The system took a deep breath, and suddenly several "fuck" thoughts popped up in its mind.
Of course it knew Ji Congwu.
It watched how Ji Congwu was tortured by Sang Luo all the way.
Ever since leaving Sang Luo, the system returned to the system bureau, feeling more or less a little uncomfortable.
There is still a little reluctance.
Just a little bit!!
After all, Sang Luo was its first host, and it felt that the cooperation between the two parties was quite good.
——This does not prevent it from still thinking that its host is an innocent person.
But Sang Luo was so heartless that he wanted to pack it up and send it away.
So, after communicating with its predecessors, the system started its new task in a hurry.
With Sang Luo in the lead, the system feels that the hosts it will serve later,
It's so gentle and obedient!!
It never does anything out of the ordinary and always follows the rules, which saves it a lot of worry.
But, I don’t know why, after a while, I started to feel a little bored.
The reason why I came to serve Ji Congwu this time is...
It had just finished a mission and was about to rest when the Lord God found it.
Ask it if it is willing to work a small shift to assist Ji Congwu and help him conquer Sangluo.
The system was: ???
It really wanted to tell the Lord God not to waste his energy, as Sang Luo was absolutely and definitely impossible to conquer.
Or was it Ji Congwu? That was even more impossible.
Unexpectedly, the Lord God said that the target was the young Sang Luo in the past.
The system didn't understand why the high and mighty Lord God would come up with a special task to bring Sang Luo and Ji Congwu together, but thinking about being able to see young Sang Luo, the system felt that it was okay.
I immediately took up my post and started working overtime.
Following the Lord God's instructions, after completing the operation and binding with Ji Congwu, the system looked at Sang Luo dragging a large sack of garbage, and thought in disbelief: Was Sang Luo in the past a poor little thing?
Before it was finished being shocked, she made a classic bold statement to Ji Congwu.
It remembered that it was now the leader of the villains and had to be professional, so it hurriedly made suggestions to Ji Congwu.
I didn't expect the villain to be so sharp.
How did he come to the conclusion that "I know him"?
The system is puzzled.
"I read your information before I came here, so of course I know you." The system wiped away the non-existent sweat.
Ji Congwu: "Really?"
A noncommittal tone.
system:"……"
Why does this tone have a strong smell of Sang Luo? !
Ji Congwu asked casually, "So, you know everything about me, including the mission content?"
System: “Of course!”
Ji Congwu: "Are you sent by the Lord God to assist me?"
System: "Yes."
Ji Congwu: "Are there many auxiliary systems like yours?"
System: “That’s right.”
Each person asked and answered questions in a unified way, which was quite harmonious.
The system was thinking that the big villain was also easy to get along with.
When he stood on Sang Luo's side before, Ji Congwu had a strong villain aura and every move he made was filled with the meaning of destruction.
It feels like any living thing that comes to him will be killed.
At this moment, despite the not-so-smooth start, I don’t feel any special emotions.
I don’t know if it’s because he controls it too well—like Sang Luo, who can block out its perception.
Or maybe he's not so "villain" anymore.
At this time——
"Have you ever assisted A Luo?"
"certainly--"
The system immediately realized that something was wrong when it blurted out, and quickly made amends:
"no!"
Its little heart was pounding, even though it didn't have that thing.
Before it could feel at ease.
Ji Congwu: "It seems so."
system:"……"
system:"???"
Without waiting for it to speak, Ji Congwu said again: "So, do you think showing weakness to A Luo and winning her sympathy will be effective?"
system:"…………"
What on earth makes him so sure?
The system originally wanted to hold on a little longer, but eventually gave up.
Based on its understanding of Sang Luo, the system thought carefully:
"Under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be. But considering her childhood, I think it's possible. Let's give it a try."
Ji Congwu: "That makes sense."
He carefully considered the suggestions given by the system.
The other party had assisted Sang Luo before, and his understanding of him was probably deeper than his.
Its proposals are of great reference value.
The originally planned savior image is no longer applicable. Considering the current situation, showing weakness is indeed a good method.
Moreover, he really did not seem to show weakness in front of Sang Luo.
——As a man, you still have to have some dignity.
But now, extraordinary situations require extraordinary treatment.
…
Ji Congwu's communication with the system takes place in his consciousness, and the outside world is only a moment away.
…
Facing the little girl's arrogant threat, the young boy, whose clothes were wrinkled and covered with bruises, stretched out his scarred arms, pointed at the wounds on his face and said weakly and helplessly:
"I didn't fight, I was beaten."
He looked at the little girl with wet eyes, and his face showed hidden pain and grievance.
With that face that has shrunk, it is less gloomy, the contours of the facial features are not so clear, but it has the natural childishness of a boy, and at the same time it is still delicate -
It can almost arouse women's love and sympathy for the weak and beautiful little boy to the greatest extent.
system:"……!"
The system was dumbfounded.
My god, with such acting skills, it would be unfair to him if he doesn’t win the Best Actor award!
Who could have imagined from this face that this person was a super villain who wanted to destroy the world and kill everyone?!
Next second.
The system watched helplessly as Sang Luo's favorability towards Ji Congwu went from -10 to -50.
At the same time, Ji Congwu also saw the changes in favorability value.
Ji Congwu: "..."
system:"……"
Sang Luo rolled his eyes lively and said, "I don't care if you were beaten or not. Everyone else has run away. You are the only one here."
"Will you kowtow and apologize to Fifth Grandma, or..."
She turned her slender fingers around her body, and when she took them out again, there was a sharp blade shining with a cold light on her fingertips.
As she spun the blade nimbly, she lowered her gaze a little to his lower body.
It seemed that if he didn't make a decision, the blade would fall where he absolutely didn't want it to fall in the next second.
Ji Congwu touched his back teeth with the tip of his tongue, and he suddenly stood up, his body shaking for a while before he stabilized himself.
When he stood up, he was half a head taller than Sang Luo.
The little boy suppressed the pain on his face, pursed his lips, and said softly:
“Why should I be held responsible for someone else’s mistakes?”
"A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. If you want to do it, then do it."
As he spoke, he clenched his fists, his whole body tensed, and his eyes closed.
He looks stubborn and at your mercy, but also hides his anger and a little bit of fear.
Zhenzhen's every movement and every expression is just right, not too much, not too little, just right.
Sang Luo was stunned.
He probably didn't expect that the person who was just crying and looking like the most wronged and miserable person in the world would become stubborn in the blink of an eye.
And he was really afraid that she would attack him, and his body was shaking imperceptibly.
But he cares more about dignity than fear.
Sang Luo found it a bit interesting, at least it looked a little better.
She likes people with personality, or people who have something more important than life and will not give up easily.
Ding~
Favorability +20
Current favorability value -30
The corners of Ji Congwu's eyes twitched slightly.
Although it was still a negative value, at least it added twenty, which meant that his behavior was right.
"Alright, since you still have some backbone, I'll let you go this time."
The sharp blade danced between the little girl's fingers and then disappeared. No one knew where she put it.
She dragged the big bag, waved her little hand, and said mercifully, "You can go now."
Ji Congwu opened his eyes, with a hint of "surprise" on his face, as if he had not expected to escape.
Then he let out a long sigh, and his tense body relaxed. Anyone could see that he was actually very nervous just now.
Now that I have received the "pardon", I can finally relax.
Sang Luo was about to turn around and leave, but when he saw his series of reactions, he let out a soft "tsk".
If he pretended not to be afraid at all, she would find it boring.
So.
Another pleasant ding.
Favorability +1
Ji Congwu: "..."
The system offered a dry consolation: "It's better than nothing."
Sang Luo no longer paid any attention to the person who had caused her the slightest emotion, and walked forward dragging a big bag that was a circle bigger than her.
I had just taken two steps when I heard footsteps behind me.
She suddenly stopped, and a faint dark light flashed in the depths of her black eyes.
At this moment, the boy's somewhat dry voice sounded: "Can I follow you?"
Sang Luo: “……?”
She turned around, her expression as if she had heard a fairy tale.
After a few seconds, she suddenly smiled, and her eyes curved into beautiful crescents.
After she had laughed enough, she said, "Say it again."
The young man held his head high and chest out, staring at her intently, his expression serious and his tone sincere and solemn: "I'm asking, can I follow you?"
Sang Luo looked him over, feeling somewhat puzzled. After a moment's thought, she asked, "Why do you want to follow me?"
Ji Congwu paused.
After confirming that there was no news of favorability points being deducted, he carefully considered and said slowly:
"I have no home, no parents, and I'm wandering alone. I can see you're alone too, so we can room together."
The little girl Youmo narrowed her eyes, and then her expression changed without warning. Her eyes were ice-cold, and even her voice was icy:
"I hate it most when people deceive me."
An ominous tone sounded.
Favorability -100
At this moment, Ji Congwu and the system felt like a bolt from the blue.
The system was stunned.
Subtracting 100 at once makes people feel like something is wrong.
It was so panicked that it ran the detection program.
Why was Sang Luo so moody when he was a child???
Ji Congwu was also stunned. The huge -100 standing there was particularly eye-catching.
——Why on earth did he think it was easy to conquer A Luo?
This little girl is more difficult to deal with than A Luo.
Ji Congwu calmed down and said in a panic: "I didn't lie to you! Everything I said is true!"
"You said you were wandering alone," the little girl said expressionlessly, "the clothes you're wearing are well-made. Can a wandering person afford to wear them?"
“That’s one of them.”
"Secondly," she raised her long eyelashes slightly, her dark eyes devoid of any emotion, "does your delicate skin look like a homeless person?"
"Thirdly, since you were wandering alone and were easily beaten up without even being able to fight back, how did you survive until now?"
Three questions, one after another, with good reasons and evidence.
The system couldn't help but look at the villain from all angles.
Although he looked a little disheveled due to the beating, it was clear at a glance that he did not look like a homeless person.
It's more like a rich young man who accidentally got into trouble while traveling.
Now I’m afraid of being bullied if I get hit accidentally.
It can be seen that Sang Luo is not someone to be trifled with, and those little thugs are afraid of her.
So I wanted to rely on her to keep me safe.
This inference is indeed reasonable.
On the other hand, it’s hard to tell what specific style Sang Luo’s clothes belong to.
It can barely be considered a mix and match style.
The outer jacket was missing a corner, and the left hem was stained with several mixed colors, making it look a little dirty.
Plus the big, tattered bag dragging on the ground.
The three words "junk picking" seemed to be tailor-made for her.
In comparison, what Ji Congwu said was nothing but lies.
——In fact, it is indeed a lie.
Ji never put in his utmost effort.
He tugged at his clothes, his mind racing, and he quickly came up with an explanation.
"I snuck into a wealthy neighborhood and picked it up from a trash can."
He said in a tone of eager explanation:
"Rich people don't have a lot of things. If they don't like or want a lot of things, they just throw them away."
Sang Luo's pupils trembled slightly, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Ji never noticed.
Thinking of the scene in the video where she was abandoned, his eyes narrowed slightly - he deliberately gave this reason just to make her believe it.
I can’t describe how I feel.
Sang Luo didn't need his pity or sympathy.
He doesn't have any of that stuff either.
If I have to say something, it would probably be: that woman named Liu Ke must be blind.
Coming back to his senses, Ji Congwu continued to explain: "As for the delicate skin and tender flesh...it's innate and there's no way to change it."
As if afraid that she wouldn't believe him, he glanced at her quickly.
Then he added weakly, "You...you are also very white."
Sang Luo: “…”
"In the end..." he said angrily, "They all attacked me, but two fists couldn't beat four hands. How could I possibly defeat them?"
"I'm actually quite good at fighting!"
"If you don't believe it, you can try it."
He was sure that A Luo would not waste the energy to test him.
Sure enough, Sang Luo gave him a pair of bright white eyes.
The atmosphere around them unconsciously became relaxed.
The system breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Sang Luo had believed the villain's explanation.
It felt like the villain was also relieved.
At the same time, the +50 favorability value also proves this from the side.
Ji Congwu: "..."
The system picked up a helpless sigh from the villain's quickly passing consciousness: deduct 100 points, but only add 50 points, A Luo, A Luo.
It couldn't help but comfort her: "Think about her, she is Sang Luo, even if she can add half of it, it's not bad."
Ji Congwu: “…………”
He was unhappy to realize that the thought that just flashed through his mind was captured by the system.
The system didn't know that the villain was angry because of its unconscious peeping, and Sang Luo's reaction gave it confidence.
It rambled on, "With your explanation and your performance, she believes you now. If you mention following her again, just say you'll be her servant...her little brother, helping her with chores or something."
Oops, I almost said the word servant.
If you want to blame someone, blame her for always asking Ji Congwu to be her servant when she was bound to Sang Luo...
Fortunately, the new host didn't mind.
…
After confirming that the other party was not cheating, Sang Luo was too lazy to pay attention to the person on the other side.
She was in a really good mood today, so she wasted time whining with him for so long.
At this moment, the pretty boy said, "I can cook. I'm a good cook."
The little girl slowly lowered her leg, which was about to be raised.
Ji Congwu lowered his long eyelashes to hide the smile that quickly flashed across his eyes: A Luo likes delicious food, and this hobby must have existed since he was a child.
Sang Luo didn't say anything, just stared at him, as if thinking.
Favorability value silently +1
Ji Congwu struck while the iron was hot: "I can do anything, as long as you tell me."
Sang Luo twisted his fingers around the raw edge of the lining, lowered his head slightly, and didn't look at Ji Congwu.
Just then, a beam of sunlight shone through the clouds, enclosing her completely.
It was warm and fluffy, like a layer of light golden gauze, making her look like a little girl.
——If it weren't for her height, it would be hard to associate her with a little girl. She has a maturity that doesn't match her age.
After a while, a decision was probably made.
"Let's go," she said.
It was so clean and neat that Ji Congwu was slightly stunned.
He thought that Sang Luo would not agree so easily, so he prepared a lot of speeches and had them all drafted in his mind.
It's not useful.
The system urged in surprise: "Hurry up and catch up."
Before Ji could come to his senses, Sang Luo had already turned around and left, dragging the big bag.
He stepped forward to catch up and casually asked the system, "She agreed, so why hasn't her favorability score changed?"
He suspected there was something wrong with the system.
System: "I don't know either. In this situation, please behave yourself and promise not to deduct points again."
Ji Congwu: "..."
His eyes swept over to the little girl's hand holding the garbage bag. The edge of the bag was tied tightly, leaving a place for pulling.
The thin rope had sunk into the little girl's palm due to the pull of the weight, leaving a deep mark.
He did not rashly take the big bag from Sang Luo to show his "tact".
——For A Luo, this behavior is an act of usurpation.
He just walked silently to Sang Luo and said softly, "I'm strong, let me carry it."
It's a tone of request.
Sang Luo glanced at him, turned his wrist and handed it to him.
Ji Congwu took the big bag, put his palm through the rope, and pulled it hard.
Ji Congwu: "..."
system:"……"
Everyone turned their eyes to the pile of things - even though Ji Congwu pulled hard, the pile of things did not move, as if it had taken root in the ground.
Ji Congwu subconsciously pulled it again.
...still not moving.
"Aren't you strong? Go ahead and pull it." Sang Luo's voice sounded in his ears. He took a look and was not surprised to see a little expression of watching a show on her face.
Ji Congwu was sure that although he was weak and had little strength at the moment, he was not so weak that he could not even pull something.
Unless the weight of this pile of things is far beyond his current ability...
The system has silently scanned and obtained the answer: "Weighs 250kg."
That is five hundred kilograms.
“…”
Without the blessing of supernatural powers, even an adult would not be able to easily pull something weighing 500 kilograms.
Besides, he is just a shrunken waste now.
For a moment, Ji Congwu wanted to complain.
The consolation is that this scene probably made Sang Luo happy.
Favorability value +10
Faced with the little girl's undisguised ridicule, Ji Congwu showed an embarrassed and shy smile.
Then he touched the tip of his nose, pointed at Sang Luo's palm which was red from being squeezed, and said:
"I thought it would be heavy, and the rope was so thin that if it broke my skin, it would easily leave a scar, but I didn't expect it to be so heavy."
He said this calmly, indicating that his original intention of taking the pocket was not to tire Sang Luo and to free her hands.
It's not that I'm trying to show off in front of her, I just want to lighten her burden.
Sang Luo pulled the pocket again, and the "rags" that were motionless in Ji Congwu's hand started moving when she pulled them.
She didn't laugh at Ji Congwu anymore, but she also had no intention of talking to him anymore.
but……
Maybe she thought of what Ji Congwu said about how a broken skin would easily leave a scar, so she changed the one she was pulling.
He also rolled up his cuffs and placed them under the rope.
——She is not afraid of pain, but afraid of leaving scars.
Scars don't look good.
She likes beautiful things, including every part of her body.
She didn't say anything, and Ji never took the initiative to bring up the topic: "My name is...Aji, what about you?"
Sang Luo gave him a sidelong glance and said, "Call me Fifth Grandma."
Ji Congwu: "..."
He wasn't worried about whether his favorability points would be deducted or not, since they were all negative now anyway. He said sincerely, "Fifth Grandma is really not nice."
Sang Luo was about to scold him, but Ji Congwu said, "I call you old. If you don't know me, you would think you are in your seventies or eighties."
"How about I call you..." He paused and spoke tentatively, "Xiao Wu..."
Seeing the little girl's suddenly solemn expression, Ji Congwu added with some difficulty:
"……sister?"
Sang Luo hesitated between Fifth Grandma and Little Fifth Sister.
After a moment, she said to Ji Congwu as if bestowing a gift:
"Okay, Chicken, Little Sister Five allows you to call me that."
Ji Congwu: “……???”
What kind of chicken?!
