Male Lead Shang Yao

Sure enough, Shang Yao’s handsome face was even more distressing. Ruan Yuexi was busy figuring out how to bind the target to pursue the mission, regardless of whether his face was good-looking or not.

[Ding! Male lead locked: Shang Yao, current abuse value: 0.]

Finally, the male lead was locked in. Next, she would strive to increase the abuse value. Ruan Yuexi straightened her back. For the sake of preserving her life, she was determined to go all out. Her eyes rolled around, thinking about the next plan.

Before she could think further, lunch was served. Ruan Yuexi looked at the sumptuous lunch before her and instantly forgot about everything else. Concentrating on eating was essential; otherwise, she wouldn’t absorb the nutrients properly.

Halfway through the meal, she looked up and saw Shang Yao elegantly eating steak beside her. Ruan Yuexi glanced at the steak on his plate, which seemed rather bloody. She tutted, wondering if there was any difference between eating it like this and eating it raw.

“Brother Yao, why did you come back to have lunch with me today?” Ruan Yuexi tried to strike up a conversation with Shang Yao.

Shang Yao continued to ignore her, as if she didn’t exist, and ate his meal gracefully.

Ruan Yuexi didn’t mind his indifference. “Brother Yao, how cooked is your steak? It’s so bloody. I saw you bite into it and blood spurted out.”

Shang Yao paused his movements, his icy gaze lifting. “Don’t talk while eating.”

Ruan Yuexi quickly covered her mouth, thinking the table had finally quieted down, but within two minutes she spoke again.

“Will eating steak this rare give you parasites?”

Shang Yao: …

“Uncle Li, prepare the car,” Shang Yao ordered coldly, wiping his lips with a napkin.

Seeing him about to leave, Ruan Yuexi wasn’t in a rush. She already had a plan that was close to perfect.

“Where is Brother Yao going?” Ruan Yuexi stood up reluctantly, trying to stop him from leaving.

But Shang Yao walked towards the door without a glance back, leaving Ruan Yuexi sitting there feeling lost.

“Why doesn’t Brother Yao even continue to eat the steak? Does he really hate me that much?” Ruan Yuexi sighed in despair and took a large bite of lobster meat. It was incredibly sweet and delicious!

Uncle Li: … 

Hearing her say that, who could continue eating? He could hardly bear to look at the steak anymore.

“Don’t be sad, madam. You know Master’s temperament,” Uncle Li tried to comfort Ruan Yuexi.

But Ruan Yuexi was still upset. “I just don’t want to make it difficult for Brother Yao. If he has other women outside and ignores me for them, I am willing to endure everything as long as he still lets me see him.”

Despite her sorrowful words, Ruan Yuexi’s eyes were fixed on the last piece of lobster meat on her plate, which looked even more tender…

Uncle Li thought about what happened last night and felt sorry for madam. She was truly madly in love with the Master.

Ruan Yuexi pretended to wipe away a tear. “Thank you, Uncle Li. I will pull myself together and eat well, then wait for Brother Yao to look back at me.”

Taking a succulent lobster from the table, she sighed again about the beauty of the wealthy. “Uncle Li, dinner should be as good as lunch, right?” It was so delicious.

Seeing her enjoy the food so much, Uncle Li felt even more uneasy. Madam never used to eat like this. She used to eat salads to maintain her figure. Now… it seemed last night’s incident had greatly affected her.

With a full belly, Ruan Yuexi went back to her room and closed the door, quickly opening the abuse value system.

[Current abuse value: 2.]

Ruan Yuexi covered her mouth excitedly to stifle her joy. It seemed that “stabbing” the male lead behind his back and pretending to be miserable was quite effective!!

Well done, Uncle Li. It seemed she would soon be able to escape from the side of the male lead Shang Yao and live happily ever after.

Thinking about the bright future ahead, she felt ecstatic.

Just do it this way from now on, you won’t offend the male lead, nor will you offend the female lead. As for other people, no matter how bad their impression of the male lead Shang Yao is, they won’t dare to reveal even a little bit to the male lead. It’s like killing two birds with one stone!

What a smart head! Ruan Yuexi grinned, held the back of her head and leaned back, leaning on the sofa, looking forward to a better future. Her prospects are bright.

But over the next two days, the abuse value remained stuck at 2. No matter how pitiful Ruan Yuexi acted in front of Uncle Li, and no matter how he comforted her, the abuse value wouldn’t increase.

Resting her chin on her hand, Ruan Yuexi pondered. Perhaps the abuse value only increased during the time when the male lead was present. It had risen right after he left that day.

In that case, she needed to get close to the male lead. The higher the danger, the higher the abuse value would rise.

“Uncle Li, where did Brother Yao go? I miss him,” Ruan Yuexi quickly went downstairs to inquire about Shang Yao’s whereabouts after devising her plan.

Uncle Li looked at her with pity. Madam’s love for Master was indeed deep. “Madam, Master is going to Master Feng Yi’s house tonight. I heard there’s a party.”

Feng Yi? Who is he? Is he the fourth male lead? Or a playboy? He’s a playboy, but he’s not difficult to deal with. Ruan Yuexi decided to go to Feng Yi’s house alone tonight.

“Really? That’s great! Uncle Li, please prepare the car for me this afternoon,” Ruan Yuexi said excitedly.

Uncle Li looked at her with even more pity. Madam really loved Master.

“Yes, madam.”

Ruan Yuexi picked out the most conservative dress from her closet, which was only slightly revealing at the back and neckline. At least the dress went down to her calves. She couldn’t bear to wear anything else. If not for increasing the abuse value, she would have gone in her pajamas.

Evening came quickly. Ruan Yuexi sat elegantly in the back of the car, taking out an ice cream from her handbag.

Uncle Chen: ? 

He looked at her through the rearview mirror, completely shocked.

Ruan Yuexi tore open the packaging and ate the ice cream while looking out the window at the scenery. The setting sun cast a melancholic glow, fitting for a lover separated by fate.

She sighed softly. “Uncle Chen, do you believe in love?” Such a poignant scene deserved some elegant “eye drops.”

Uncle Chen also sighed. “Madam, don’t be sad about what Master has done. He…” He not only didn’t like madam but was also quite repelled by her. Falling flowers intentionally, flowing water was heartless.

“It’s okay. As long as he looks at me once, I’ll be content,” Ruan Yuexi said, quickly licking up the melting ice cream. Love was one thing, but this ice cream couldn’t be wasted.

Uncle Chen remained immersed in Ruan Yuexi’s melancholy. Even though madam had been embarrassed by the Master that night, she still loved him deeply.

Ruan Yuexi reluctantly finished her ice cream, it was really delicious. She planned to have two more when she returned to the villa later.

The road the car took became more and more remote. Finally, she saw a building where she could see the sea, quite secluded indeed.

Entering the villa without anyone guarding outside, Ruan Yuexi walked in leisurely. It was indeed beautiful, a true display of how the wealthy enjoy life.

Just as she walked halfway through the yard, she could already hear deafening music, so loud that she could make out the lyrics clearly. One could only imagine how loud it was.

For the sake of increasing the abuse value, she was determined! Ruan Yuexi continued walking forward. The main gate was not locked. Upon pushing it open, a long corridor awaited her, with a door beside it where the loud music was emanating from.

The ear-splitting music buzzed in Ruan Yuexi’s head. Upon opening the door, she found darkness inside with flickers of light. Laughter and music mixed together, coming from men and women inside.

Feng Yi smirked, about to kiss the beauty in his arms, when suddenly, the light above them flickered, startling him.
