After putting in so much effort, she had finally found the right way to successfully farm favorability from the Main Heroine, Meng Wange.
Looking out at the clear night sky, Su Wanli lightly rubbed her chin, recalling the scene they had just experienced on the roof.
‘…I think I farmed it, right?’
After all, that usually cold and aloof Main Heroine, Meng Wange, hadn’t cared at all about the difference in their status. She had simply lunged forward and hugged her with red-rimmed eyes…
Hugged her…
Hugged…
Her…
“Heh, hehe…”
Recalling that image, although Su Wanli tried her best to maintain a reserved and restrained cool appearance in front of the System, the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but curl upward.
Under her seamless and flawless plan, Meng Wange, a young girl in the bloom of youth, eventually failed to resist the romantic atmosphere that struck straight at the heart. In the roar of the fireworks, she had impulsively hugged her.
By the time she came to her senses and realized the world of difference between a “Heroine” and a “Villainess,” it was already too late.
Su Wanli had already vividly memorized that moment—the sensation of Meng Wange’s soft hair brushing against her ear, and the subtle, heart-fluttering itch when her breath lightly fell upon her forehead.
***
Even if a day came in the future where she was defeated by the Main Heroine, Meng Wange, and became her stepping stone…
Just this experience alone made it all “worth it.” She could die with no regrets—
As if!
The problem was—that bit of physical contact was way too short!
The moment the fireworks stopped, Meng Wange regained her composure. She quickly let go, gracefully took a step back, and lowered her head to cut the petal-shaped cake. She spoke softly, saying “Please excuse my lack of manners,” while bowing to her.
There were no tear stains left at the corners of her eyes either.
Those few crystal tears from before seemed like nothing more than a hallucination.
No, even that hug felt like a fleeting illusion.
Only the faint fragrance lingering at the tip of her nose served as a reminder—everything just now had indeed happened.
…Damn it.
If she had known it would be like this, she shouldn’t have only let Zhang Ma prepare five rounds of fireworks.
She should have ordered fifty rounds, or just let them go off all night!
Still… she couldn’t be too greedy.
A hug lasting dozens of seconds could barely be considered the heroine “taking the initiative to show goodwill.”
If it had lasted any longer…
Forget the System and “Villainess Value,” even she would start to feel that it was becoming a bit too intimate.
There was no helping it.
Her character setting was that of a thoroughbred Villainous Eldest Young Lady.
From the first day she arrived in this world, the System told her—her mission was to become a stumbling block on the heroine’s path of growth, the villain who must eventually be struck down.
And it was only after accepting this premise that she began this long roleplay.
So—
Even if Meng Wange kept getting closer to her, she had to maintain her distance and push her away time and time again.
***
Then again.
As long as her “Villainess Value” was sufficient, occasionally getting a little closer and enjoying the pleasure of being intimate with a beautiful girl…
That shouldn’t be a problem, right?
As long as she grasped that “limit” well…
Thinking of this, Su Wanli’s cheeks flushed slightly.
It had been over half an hour since she returned to her room, but that elegant, woody scent from Meng Wange seemed to still linger around her nose.
She couldn’t help but hug her blanket tightly and bury her face in it, hiding her faint excitement and shyness along with it.
…
Ah, the scent seemed to remain on the pillow and sheets as well.
So happy…
‘I wish my whole body could just turn into a nose…’
Unconsciously, Su Wanli began rolling around on the bed.
**[…Host, to say the least, the idea of turning yourself into an organ is too ridiculous.]**
“Cough, mind your business. I’m just thinking to myself…”
“…Wait, no! You have the nerve to speak!?”
Su Wanli suddenly sat up and yanked the White Dumpling out of her pocket.
“Even if I think like that, it’s because the heroine’s charm is too high! And a certain useless, broken system has only given me a bit of physical health as a buff so far. You won’t even give me Mental Resistance!”
**[Apologies, Host. This is due to force majeure…]**
“Fine, fine, force majeure, right? Forget it.”
“It doesn’t matter if I have Charm Resistance or not. Even if my nature isn’t actually wicked, it’s normal to be occasionally influenced by Meng Wange’s beauty.”
“But the point is—haven’t I been completing the tasks perfectly?”
**[That is true. Through your Villainess Roleplay over the past few days, you have accumulated 240 Villainess Points and increased your Extra Villainess Value to 32, which is equivalent to one and a half bottles of Female Villain Potion.]**
“Heh, it’s better if you don’t mention it. I get angry the moment you do!”
Su Wanli tossed the White Dumpling onto the desk, then rummaged through her things and threw a pile of strange items down next to it.
“Look at these—Villainess Handbag, Good Luck Twelve-sided Dice, Villainess Teleprompter Glasses…”
“Which one of these didn’t cost me a massive amount of points? And the result?”
“The handbag looked impressive, but in the end, it only helped me win at rock-paper-scissors and scared someone a little.”
“The dice? At most, they let me score an extra point or two on an exam. Even without those points, I would have still ranked in the twentieth or thirtieth place!”
“As for these Prompt Glasses—I’m too lazy to even talk about them! The lines are a mess. The logic feels like it traveled from my house’s sewers all the way to Centaurus!”
“The Villainess Value did go up, but I didn’t even know how to say the next line!”
“So—”
“You, this System, are fundamentally dragging me down!”
“I’m working hard at my Villainess Roleplay, while you’re just wasting resources!”
“And you call yourself the most loyal partner? I think I’d be better off if you just shut down and let me do this alone!”
**[Villainess Value increased to 94 points.]**
**[…Apologies, that was a system anomaly. It has been adjusted to 89 points.]**
The System’s electronic voice responded calmly.
**[Regarding the item selection, before the Shop officially opens, the System can only make predictions based on the situations you face. Deviations are inevitable.]**
**[However, since the Shop was mentioned—]**
**[Congratulations, Host. By guiding the plot’s development, you have successfully triggered four key nodes around the heroine: the Rumor Event, Art Class performance, Examination results, and the Bai Family Banquet performance.]**
**[Plot Fluctuation has reached the standard.]**
**[Next—The Villainess Young Lady Roleplay System Shop Mode is about to open.]**
