Chapter 71 He Changed His Name, Why Can't I Be the Villain?
"If you knew the original script, would you have killed Fu Yanli?"
"meeting."
"Would you feel guilty then?"
"Won't."
Gu Pei breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving the answer he expected.
Xu Wenci will still do it, so what is the point of him doing it?
Is it really meaningless?
"You and Fu Yanli have obtained a strange book, but the content of that book is completely different from what you are experiencing now. What will you take that book for? Will you take it for a script?"
Won't.
A book that is completely contrary to real-life experience will not be treated as a script by anyone.
No one would believe that everything described in that book was their actual life.
Xu Wenci seemed to understand.
He flipped through the original script, expecting to sigh and feel regret, but he didn't.
It seems they are just watching the lives of two other happy people.
Now, no matter what, it will never become his and Fu Yanli's lives.
"You know so much about me and Fu Yanli," Xu Wenci chuckled, "then guess whether Fu Yanli has agreed to my request?"
Gu Pei gritted his teeth, feeling that Xu Wenci had truly gone mad. He unconsciously touched his arm and said, "Your plan, in essence, didn't utilize Fu Yanli, did it...?"
Smiling, Xu Wenci clapped his hands, tilted his head, and said, "You guessed right."
Gu Pei didn't understand Xu Wenci's true thoughts; he could only guess Xu Wenci's general style of doing things because Xu Wenci's personality had changed a lot.
“But you took advantage of Yi… Yi Pei, you took advantage of Yi Lou…” Gu Pei narrowed his eyes, very unwilling to admit this fact.
Instead of using Fu Yanli, they can keep Old Master Qiao in check.
There is no other choice but to accept this possibility.
Xu Wenci remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.
He got up, seemingly to go upstairs to pick out clothes, and said, "I have something to do this afternoon, take care."
Gu Pei remained huddled on the sofa, showing no intention of moving. "Hey, why don't you take me in for a while? Anyway, if I go back now, Yi Lou will arrest me, and it will be very difficult for you to get my answer then."
For some reason, Xu Wenci suddenly recalled Fu Yanli's anxious and pounding face. He turned around and said, "No."
A clean and decisive refusal.
OK.
Gu Pei pouted, stood up, and pulled her long hair, which reached her shoulders, back behind her head, with a few strands falling out as she moved.
He doesn't care.
But it shouldn't be a problem for him to stay for a while and get a free meal, right?
Because he believed that as soon as he went out, that bastard Yi Lou would definitely drag him back.
Gu Pei waited for a long time, but Xu Wenci did not appear.
Does Xu Wenci not eat?
Aren't you afraid of fainting?
Gu Pei hesitated for a moment, then decided to go upstairs to take a look.
"Gu Pei, I'm telling Yi Lou you're here." Xu Wenci stood at the top of the stairs, watching Gu Pei, who was climbing the stairs with his head down.
Gu Pei paused as he went upstairs. "Hey! Why are you doing this? It doesn't do you any good!"
“Who says it’s not good for me at all?” Xu Wenci, sporting a new hairstyle, lowered his eyes. “Didn’t I already cooperate with Yilou?”
Collaborating with Yilou?
Gu Pei's teeth itched.
That bastard Xu Wenci actually betrayed him, the very person who had just given him the idea?
"You're going out this afternoon? Instead, you're handing me over to that bastard Yi Lou!" Gu Pei's eyes widened as he ran up the stairs and grabbed Xu Wenci's arm. "Don't you know how to repay kindness? After you hand me over to Yi Lou, you better not let him let me go. Otherwise, the first thing I'll do after I escape is give you a haircut just like Fu Yanli's."
Gu Pei's threat remained as harmless as ever.
However, Fu Yanli's hairstyle is indeed a bit...
Xu Wenci frowned, took a step back, and said with a frown, "Don't lay a hand on me."
Gu Pei snorted with a sneer, seemingly amused by Xu Wenci, his eyes crinkling with laughter. "When you and Fu Yanli argued, you smashed bottles and hit each other. Why didn't you just tell them not to get physical?"
Xu Wenci: That day, outside the door, there was not only Ye Qingdai who overheard, but also Gu Pei?
No, Gu Pei couldn't have been there at that time.
Gu Pei is occupying the body of the already deceased Yi Pei, so he will try his best to avoid appearing in front of people who have seen Yi Pei's appearance before, and it is impossible for him to appear in that exhibition where countless high-society figures are drinking and socializing.
So... Gu Pei probably found out through the system...
However, the system's permissions do not seem to allow for such a level of access.
"You don't need to worry about it." Xu Wenci coldly uttered these words, then turned and left.
Gu Pei watched as Xu Wenci continued down the stairs without turning back.
The villains of this world must appear.
In his original script, there had to be a villain.
Then why can't he be the villain?
In this way, the plots he writes can also have a beginning and an end.
He lied to Xu Wenci.
The plagiarists' control over them has weakened, so how could their code still have any meaning?
Only he, the original author, could have written this simple task by hand.
Why did Xu Wenci believe it?
Because Xu Wenci desperately wanted to get rid of Fu Yanli.
As a result, he lost his rationality.
Isn't this great?
Gu Pei smiled and followed Xu Wenci down the stairs step by step. Then, he walked out the door and looked at Yi Lou, who was standing outside with his arms crossed, and continued to smile.
I'm sorry, Yi Zhi.
I clearly promised you I would try my best not to let Yi Lou get involved in the main storyline.
Yi Lou stood to the side, his head slightly lowered, the wisps of hair on his forehead partially obscuring his eyebrows and eyes, and a glimpse of the silver of his glasses frame could be seen from behind his ear.
He seemed certain that Gu Pei would appear and come to him for help.
Gu Pei rolled his eyes and didn't say anything.
He cannot back down.
"Come back." Yi Lou noticed Gu Pei, pushed up his glasses, and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly covered by a hint of confusion.
Gu Pei: "Do you remember what I told you before?"
What did you say?
Yi Lou frowned almost imperceptibly.
“I can bring him back, provided you become the villain.”
Gu Pei's gaze was serious, without a trace of joking.
Yi Lou opened his mouth, about to speak.
"Are you kidding me? I already promised Yi Zhi. If I don't keep my word, where is my dignity as an author?" Gu Pei suddenly bent over, laughing so hard he covered his stomach, and waved at Yi Lou provocatively.
"Yi Pei changed his name," Gu Pei suddenly said softly.
His dark brown pupils dilated in an instant, and Gu Pei pursed his lips, suddenly unsure of what he was thinking.
It has been changed to be easy to understand.
This is a question with no suspense whatsoever.
Xu Wenci sat next to Fu Yanli without any surprise, and the two of them gave each other a silent profile.
The movie hasn't started yet.
Compared to the audience around them who were either talking in hushed tones or quietly eating popcorn, Xu Wenci and Fu Yanli were utterly boring.
Fu Yanli broke the silence first, leaning his head closer to Xu Wenci's shoulder and asking in a low voice, "Are we just going to watch the movie quietly?"
"Otherwise what?" Xu Wenci raised an eyebrow, but did not turn his head.
He could hear Fu Yanli's soft breathing, and even feel his breath merging into the air in front of him.
I wonder what other restrictions there are on this broken task in the rules?
Fu Yanli pursed his lips: "What if we fail to complete the mission again?"
Xu Wenci: Why are there so many questions?
But he still said, "No."
The task will not be unfinished.
Because I really want to marry you.
I really want to watch a movie with you.
“Fu Yanli,” Xu Wenci suddenly turned his head and met Fu Yanli’s gaze, almost nose to nose.
Fu Yanli dared not breathe, and gently shifted his body, shrinking down a little.
Xu Wenci blinked and bent down slightly.
That way, neither of them will stand out too much.
"What's wrong?" Fu Yanli asked in a low voice.
It was too quiet for Xu Wenci to hear, so he tilted his head and brought his ear closer to Fu Yanli.
But he still couldn't hear it.
"Fu Yanli, this time, I won't kill you."
Xu Wen resigned.
Fu Yanli heard Xu Wenci's words clearly.
His Adam's apple bobbed unconsciously as his gaze fell on Xu Wenci's eyes.
He had always liked Xu Wenci's eyes.
However, there was never any dependence on him in Xu Wenci's eyes.
There is love, there is hate, but there is no dependence.
"The two of them went to see a movie?" Old Master Qiao rubbed his cane uncertainly, his tone doubtful. "Are you sure Xu Wenci still hates Fu Yanli?"
Gu Pei turned his neck and smiled: "Of course, unless Fu Yanli proves that he was being controlled, how could Xu Wenci possibly put those things behind him given his personality?"
Unfortunately, given Fu Yanli's personality, he would never reveal his dissatisfaction in this regard to Xu Wenci.
Grandpa Qiao suspected he had been scammed.
Isn't it obvious to anyone with eyes that Fu Yanli is being controlled by the script? How could someone as smart as Xu Wenci not know?
Is evidence really still needed?
Gu Pei: "When Xu Wenci kills Fu Yanli again, as long as you protect Xu Wenci's safety, this world can naturally change."
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
All he needs to do is prove that he wrote the script.
Then Old Master Qiao would trust him without reservation.
But before that, he had already gained the trust of Fu Yanli and Xu Wenci.
Grandpa Qiao, as a defeated opponent of Fu Yanli and Xu Wenci in the previous world, what does it matter if you have the same memories as them in this world?
There is only one month before the next mission.
Gu Pei narrowed his eyes.
Let's see which plan, Xu Wenci's or his, comes out on top.
"What if we kidnap Xu Wenci?" Old Master Qiao stroked his cane, his eyes tentatively glancing at Gu Pei: "As the author, Mr. Gu Pei, wouldn't you feel bad about it..."
Gu Pei smiled slightly, a glint of light flashing in his deep brown eyes, "I came into this world to correct the plot... so, of course, Xu Wenci shouldn't miss out on any of the suffering he was supposed to endure..."
"That's good." Old Master Qiao slowly raised his eyelids, and beside him hung a string of roughly made Buddhist prayer beads.
Gu Pei squinted at the string of Buddhist beads, certain that he had not included any mention of Old Master Qiao's fondness for Buddhist beads in this book.
Who sent it?
"You gave Grandpa Qiao a string of Buddhist prayer beads? And such a crudely made string of prayer beads?" Su Anlan shouted, wishing she could immediately wake up her niece who was usually so much smarter than her.
Ye Chuying shrugged nonchalantly: "I thought that suited him well, so I gave it to him."
"Chuying, we still need to maintain appearances," Su Anlan earnestly advised.
"No, he really likes that thing."
