Chapter 2 Eliminating the Weeds at the Root
According to the original plot, she should have been saved by the heroic male protagonist just as the murderer was about to break down the door, causing the murderer to flee in panic.
Her current identity is that of a female protagonist in a tragic romance novel.
In the original story, the female lead, Xin Que, was neglected by her parents and relatives who all favored her younger sister, resulting in her lack of love from a young age. Later, she was moved by the male lead, Luo Huayi's, kindness in saving her life and fell in love with him uncontrollably.
Her younger sister, Xin Xin, after learning that Xin Que had a crush on Luo Huayi, deliberately tried to bring the two together and also lured Luo Huayi into her life.
Naturally, Luo Huayi also sided with Xin Xin.
After being abandoned by everyone and driven out of the Xin family, Xin Que was stabbed to death in her rented room by a deranged killer who came to take revenge, and her body was dismembered and cooked.
After the female lead died, Luo Huayi's mind went completely blank, and he suddenly realized that he had always deeply loved the female lead!
Although he didn't know Xin Que's birthday, subjected her to years of emotional abuse, cheated on her with her sister, and even forced her into prison due to a wrongful conviction...
But he always loved Xin Que.
So the male protagonist went mad.
Luo Huayi went on a rampage, clutching the female lead's ashes. Finally, after some of his cronies pretended to persuade him, "If you keep doing this, Xin Que's spirit in heaven won't be at peace."
Luo Huayi had no choice but to reluctantly accept her vast fortune and live a lonely life.
It's worth mentioning that the female lead's ashes were never properly interred after her death.
The urn was always kept by Luo Huayi's side, so that he could remember the female lead at all times and prove his undying love for her.
Wotzemak!
Xin Que wanted to curse.
What kind of "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" scenario is this?!
......
In the end, Xin Que was released.
Now that her encounter with the male lead has been disrupted, she refuses to believe that he can use the life-saving favor to blackmail her into doing this or that.
In the middle of the story, whenever the female lead expresses any dissatisfaction with Luo Huayi and Xin Xin, Luo Huayi will bring up the past life-saving grace and call her an ingrate, ruthless, and so on.
The female protagonist felt that she owed him her life, and she held her breath to meet his demands, except for taking care of Xin Xin during her postpartum period.
Xin Que sneered. She wanted to see how the plot would still try to bring her and Luo Huayi together now that the murderer was half-dead and paralyzed in bed.
As it turned out, Xin Que was too happy too soon.
I just paid the landlord compensation and rented a new apartment with better security...
Xin Que was cornered by a thug in the restaurant.
"Hey," a man dressed in a slick, street-smart style walked up to Xin Que, "Beautiful lady, all alone?"
The chopsticks in Xin Que's hand broke with a snap.
Why are there so many clueless idiots in this world...?
Xin Que sighed and was about to get up and tell the man to go out and fight when the man opposite her was grabbed by the collar and pulled away.
Xin Que slapped her forehead and covered her eyes, really not wanting to look at the man who had acted bravely.
I should be eating instant noodles at home tonight.
Why not eat it cooked? She was afraid of carbon monoxide poisoning, and the male lead had to break in through the window to save her.
"Keep your hands clean! Don't fucking ask for a beating!" Luo Huayi's tall figure separated Xin Que from the thug, exuding a ruthless and decisive aura.
"Are you alright?" Luo Huayi straightened his meticulously tailored suit cuffs and turned to look at Xin Que.
Without saying a word, Xin Que pushed Luo Huayi aside and walked straight towards the man whose momentum had already waned by half.
"Wait, be careful..." Luo Huayi failed to stop the woman, frowned, and was about to step forward.
The sleazy-looking man, who was already somewhat hesitant, became arrogant again when he saw Xin Que approaching him. "She's throwing herself at you, what's it to you..."
Before he could finish speaking, the man's legs drew a perfect arc in mid-air, "Bang!"
Xin Que threw him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.
Realizing that Xin Que was not someone to be trifled with, the man cursed as he got up from the ground and ran out of the restaurant.
Luo Huayi paused, not continuing forward.
"Check, please." Xin Que went to the front desk to pay the bill with a cold face.
The waiter was stunned by the scene and it took him a while to react, "Oh, oh."
Luo Huayi brushed past the woman who was turning to leave, catching a glimpse of the woman's impatient expression out of the corner of her eye.
He understood.
That expression meant that he was meddling in other people's business.
Xin Que was extremely annoyed.
The plot of this world doesn't require any thought.
How could Luo Huayi, a domineering CEO, dressed in a bespoke suit and with his hair meticulously styled, inexplicably appear in a Lanzhou noodle restaurant?
So you're resorting to any means necessary to get the male and female leads together as soon as possible?
Luo Huayi couldn't understand why she, who should have been at the State Banquet Hall in the city center, would have suddenly decided to drive here to eat Lanzhou noodles.
He seemed to suddenly come to his senses, looking around at the cramped surroundings, then at the Maybach parked diagonally at the door.
A traffic policeman's motorcycle sped past, and he braked suddenly to a stop next to his Maybach.
"Wait!" Luo Huayi's eyes widened, and she strode out the door with long strides.
It's obvious that the traffic police can issue tickets and take photos faster than he can.
After taking a picture of the license plate, the traffic police officer immediately started his motorcycle and sped away.
When Luo Huayi arrived at the car, her phone vibrated.
It's a text message about a parking violation penalty.
He glanced at the noisy downtown environment and then at his car.
Finally, Luo Huayi defiantly lifted the hem of his suit jacket, put his hands on his hips, and held his breath, feeling extremely agitated.
Why did I suddenly decide to come here?
No one can explain this problem.
At least, the "people" of this world cannot explain this problem.
This requires elevating to a higher dimension...
No matter how domineering Luo Huayi is, he can't just randomly pick a lucky passerby on the street to be his punching bag.
That's not a domineering CEO, that's a trendsetting tycoon.
Luo Huayi held her breath, got into the car, and left.
......
The transparent characters floating before his eyes were still flashing a shocking red, and alarms were going off in his head one after another, the sharp and piercing sounds almost piercing Xin Que's eardrums.
When Xin Que realized that she had just been forced to meet the male lead again by the plot, her brain started working at high speed, constantly reviewing her experiences after transmigrating.
I had oversimplified things.
She didn't go looking for Luo Huayi herself, but Luo Huayi appeared out of nowhere and found her location precisely.
What about that psychopathic killer who was already severely burned and paralyzed in the hospital?
This murderer plays a role almost throughout the entire plot; even the cruel death the plot ultimately arranges for the female lead is orchestrated through his actions...
Xin Que quickly returned to her rented apartment, disguised herself, and headed straight to the hospital.
She cannot ignore any factor that might threaten her.
"My God," several doctors said wearily as they passed Xin Que, "that person is incredibly lucky. He had such severe burns, yet he still made it through the critical period."
"I doubt he'll be able to get medical parole... Judging by his recovery speed, it's only a matter of time before he can resume normal activities."
The sound of their conversation gradually faded into the distance.
Xin Que paused, and then her expression, hidden behind her mask and glasses, suddenly turned sinister.
......
"Do you remember that burglary case in the old neighborhood?" Zhou Zichuan held his phone up to his friend's face, looking on with a gossipy expression.
"The case where the victim was Xin Xin's sister."
Luo Huayi showed no interest, glancing casually at the phone screen before her eyes widened slightly.
"Xin Que?" Luo Huayi locked onto the gossip on her phone screen and found her name almost instantly.
"That case," Zhou Zichuan pulled up another piece of information, revealed by his connections at the police station, "that murderer who was almost scalded to death by Xin Que is dead."
"It seems that his neck was...strangled by an electrical wire."
Xin Que slowly changed out of her blood-stained short-sleeved shirt and shorts from under her coat, then took out alcohol wipes from her handbag and gently wiped away the liquid from her exposed skin.
A few minutes later, the sound of flushing came from the toilet stall.
Xin Que walked out of the public restroom with a calm expression.
Police cars arrived one after another, rushing to the hospital a few hundred meters away.
