It’s over, completely over my Villainess Career is finally finished!
Su Wanli sat on the comfortable large bed in her room, tugging at the strands of hair on her forehead, staring blankly at the sky outside the window.
【…Ahem, don’t worry, Host, your Villainess Value hasn’t actually dropped that badly.】
In this lonely space, only the System’s voice came softly from the palm of her hand.
[Moreover, the loyalty of your three subordinates is still guaranteed. Even if they saw that rather embarrassing scene, this information shouldn’t spread. You don’t need to make such meaningless lamentations.]
“.. You don’t know the first thing,”
Su Wanli glared fiercely at the white fluffy toy in her hand, then harshly rubbed it purple.
[Ouch, please be gentle, Host.]
Feeling the increasing force Su Wanli applied to the toy, the System let out a calm but pitiful cry.
“Since this function was designed, at least make me learn to be a bit more human! Show more intense emotions!”
[Listen, I’m suddenly feeling a ripping pain in my body. The System can barely bear this cruelty. Please lighten the pressure from your fingertips or my spirit will collapse.]
“… I said ‘intense,’ not ‘violent.’”
Listening to the System’s dull electronic tone, Su Wanli sighed silently, then casually tossed the white ball onto the floor and placed her palm on her forehead.
Good news: her intuition wasn’t wrong. The System’s detection was very lax. It just wanted Meng Wange to “lower her head” to Su Wanli, which really meant just a simple posture of submission.
Bad news: when she was on the gym mat posing with Meng Wange to complete the mission, Xiao Fen, Da Zhuang, and Potato Thunder suddenly all popped out from somewhere, pushing each other as they approached.
They awkwardly smiled at Su Wanli and Meng Wange.
Thankfully, Meng Wange immediately explained that what the two of them were doing was for the sake of Artistic Pursuit. They nodded vigorously at once, but…
Just looking at their flushed faces and their stammering promises never to tell anyone, it was obvious they still misunderstood something, right!?
Leaving aside whether they would spread the news, just this misunderstanding alone meant that if Su Wanli instructed them to “add some seasoning to Meng Wange’s meal,” they would probably just think she wanted to feed Meng Wange more!
Being mistaken for this kind of Villainess… her acting career was completely over.
【Don’t worry, Host, your Villainess Career won’t be affected by small matters like this. On the contrary, such damaging rumors often become stumbling blocks on the Heroine’s path of growth, adding bricks and tiles to your current rating.】
“.. That’s really so damn awesome.”
【Of course it is. Even if those three subordinates misunderstand you, as long as our main target, Heroine Meng Wange, doesn’t misunderstand, it’s fine. As long as you’re still locked in confrontation with her, you remain the most outstanding and exceptional Villainess.】
Although the situation hadn’t improved in the slightest, since the System had spoken like that, Su Wanli felt there was no need to worry so much.
Still, Meng Wange…
Now that everything had been discovered, naturally there was no time left for the two of them to paint.
After explaining everything to the three subordinates, Meng Wange smiled gently and led Su Wanli out of the Equipment Room, out through the School Gate, and climbed into her pink Maybach.
She drove straight back to the Su Residence.
On the way, Meng Wange maintained her elegant demeanor, silently gazing out the window without saying a word.
Only during the meal in the Yan Hui Ting did she exchange a few words with Su Wanli, asking what foods she liked.
After Su Wanli’s cold and sarcastic remarks, Meng Wange showed her usual calm smile and continued eating quietly.
Finally, she waved goodbye and returned to her own room.
…How to put it…
Even though Meng Wange had made a fiery loyalty vow to her in the Equipment Room, surprisingly, she hadn’t acted much on it.
Su Wanli had expected at least a bit of pretense—like constant concern during the ride home, warming up a jacket for her after arriving, or politely escorting her upstairs…
【After all, she’s the Heroine. If she just leisurely fussed over the Villainess all the time, then she wouldn’t really be a Heroine.】
That made sense. If Meng Wange actually felt grateful because of amusement parks, fried shrimp, or meat buns, it would be far too unnatural. This kind of reserved attitude was the proper normal state.
No wonder she was such a measured actress. This skill of controlling emotional temperature was exactly something Su Wanli needed to learn from Meng Wange.
Su Wanli often got too tense emotionally and went overboard, uttering strange or ridiculous lines.
Wait, now that she thought carefully, didn’t Meng Wange say something silly in the Equipment Room like “I dedicate my life as Meng Wange to you”?
That was surprisingly unrestrained of her—casually talking about something impossible like “life.” Wouldn’t that invite Heaven’s Punishment later?
No, Meng Wange was the Heroine of this world. It was only Su Wanli, the unqualified Villainess, who would suffer the world’s retribution.
Or was it the System’s punishment…
Thinking this through in her mind, Su Wanli let out a bitter laugh.
She propped herself up, stretched on the bed, and yawned widely.
Alright, no more random thoughts.
Since today’s mission was finished, before the System could punish her, she would make it pay for what it owed…
Just one thin wall away, in Meng Wange’s room—
Meng Wange sat upright at her desk, quietly writing the last few characters on a sheet of paper.
…Done. Tomorrow, before every exam, she would be able to give Su Wanli the corresponding test content.
Simplified to this degree, even if Su Wanli could only remember about half of it, it should be enough to support her grades at an average level in San Ban.
However, recalling Su Wanli’s serious attitude during study sessions, Meng Wange couldn’t help but smile.
Did she really need to give her something like cheat sheets?
Su Wanli would probably say something like, “Are you insulting my intelligence? Take this filthy thing away from me!”
Besides, with Su Wanli’s learning speed and intelligence, if she truly started working hard, her grades would surely exceed this.
When that time came, even if Su Wanli no longer existed, she would still become an outstanding successor of the group, making Meng Wange lose her value by staying at her side.
Meng Wange sighed softly and glanced at the Page-turning Clock on the desk.
The time had come to 10 p.m. once again.
She had already accumulated too much unstudied material. She couldn’t delay any longer.
But before that…
She took the worn Diary out of her pocket, placing it carefully on the desk.
This time, what should she record…
