The Counterattack Plan of A Villain With Ten Thousand Fans - Chapter 309
🕑 Added 2024-04-16 21:55:08 +0000 UTCChapter 309
It's unfair to say that Qi Yang can't take a hit. Originally, Qi Yang is portrayed as a gentle and kind person with principles, a model protagonist of justice. Although occasionally setbacks due to his soft-heartedness occur, he has friends, elders, and confidantes to steer him right, so he never loses the ray of sunshine in his heart.
However, Qi Yang here, due to the presence of Chen Yue, a transgressor completely leaning towards villainy, hasn't met the male supporting character he was supposed to months ago, nor the confidante who understands him well. Added to that, he's often betrayed by those he saves, which has brought him to a psychological tipping point. Now, Chu Yun's betrayal is just the last straw.
Qi Yang soon adjusted his mood, had a good sleep, and then found Chu's family. He confessed everything from meeting Chu Yun to their plan to leave the Chu family. As for the matter of the Nine Mysteries Stone, he naturally pinned it on Chu Yun.
Even though he knew that Chu Yun didn't have time to take that item, it was just a guess, wasn't it?
Moreover, Qi Yang took advantage of his recent experiences to gain quite a few benefits from the Chu family, knowing that he was the forbidden child yet still keeping him in the house, which was a significant taboo.
Looking at the main character's image sent by 098, Ling Chunann stroked his chin and laughed.
Ling Chunann doesn't care about what kind of person the main character is. As long as he doesn't cause trouble for him, it doesn't matter how he behaves.
On the third day when Ling Chunann went to school, he finally saw the main character. By then, Qi Yang had recovered to normal, wearing a gentle smile. Seeing Ling Chunann enter the classroom, he even waved at him. Ling Chunann glanced at Chen Yue, who hadn't been to school for several days either, and then sat down next to Qi Yang.
"Cangyu, I heard you took a week off last week. Are you feeling better?" Qi Yang asked nonchalantly as he opened his book.
Ling Chunann nodded, "Hmm."
Chen Yue interjected, "Teacher Han didn't come to class last week either."
A spark of interest flashed through Qi Yang’s eyes, "Is that so?"
Ling Chunann ignored the two of them, took a glance at the empty seat next to Chen Yue, and started reading his book.
"Host, Chen Yue's soul has now returned to her original state, and no threat has been detected. The main character seems to be suspecting your identity," 098 said, "but it's not clear whether he suspects you're the Zombie King or Han Yu. I think the latter is more likely, at about 51%."
"Understood."
Throughout the class, Qi Yang tried subtly to test Ling Chunann. Although Ling Chunann maintained his usual reserved and melancholic demeanor, such probing was hardly challenging for him.
As the class ended, and no information was gained, Qi Yang became somewhat anxious. He finally decided to follow Ling Chunann.
During these days of recuperation, Qi Yang not only healed his injuries but also improved his skills, advancing from a level three to a level four celestial master. He unlocked more celestial master heritage information, which allowed him to use the invisibility skill. As long as the opponent wasn't a level five celestial master or higher, they couldn't detect him, which is why he boldly followed Ling Chunann.
Ling Chunann pretended not to notice him, walked two blocks, and turned into a deserted alley.
Seeing Ling Chunann enter the alley, Qi Yang hurriedly followed, but then he discovered that the alley was empty. The alley was more than fifty meters long, and they had been only five meters apart. Given Ling Chunann’s speed, it was impossible for him to disappear so quickly unless... he had been discovered!
This realization made Qi Yang panic for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure, revealed his form, and spoke slowly, "Cangyu, or should I call you Han Yu, I think we need to talk."
"Wow, host, he really recognized you!" 098 was somewhat excited, though it was more for its own correctness of guess. Looking back at its host's calm expression, it felt a bit discouraged, as this all-knowing host was really good at damping its spirits.
Ling Chunann, in a rare good mood, played along, "Wow, that's really amazing."
Hearing Ling Chunann's flat tone, 098 felt powerless. Alright, it wasn’t amazing at all.
After a while, when no one came out, Qi Yang felt nervous. Perhaps he had guessed wrong?
Patience is still lacking, Ling Chunann assessed internally, then stepped out from the shadows with a smile, "Talk about what?"
Half an hour later, Han Fenglian, who
had been waiting for Ling Chunann, finally found him. To his surprise, his precious child was sitting in a café chatting happily with another man.
Qi Yang had intended to talk a bit more with Ling Chunann but suddenly felt a chill. Turning his head, he saw Han Fenglian, who had appeared at the door. Thinking back to the rumors he had heard from the celestial masters in recent days, he shivered and quickly got up to bid farewell to Ling Chunann, adding, "See you in two days," before darting out like a rabbit through another door.
Seeing Qi Yang leave, Han Fenglian’s expression softened a bit, "Baby, it’s getting late. We should head home."
Ling Chunann glanced at the still bright sky—it was only five in the afternoon, far from late—and doubted the man’s sense of time.
In fact, Qi Yang and Ling Chunann didn't discuss anything serious. After confirming that Ling Chunann was indeed Han Yu, who had been following Han Fenglian, Qi Yang didn't rush to act or use his possible status as Han Fenglian’s male companion for blackmail. He just expressed enough surprise and tested Ling Chunann’s abilities before they agreed to meet again.
As they got into the car, 098 raised a doubt, "Host, the main character seems a bit strange after his dark transformation." Even if someone becomes evil, their intelligence wouldn't change so drastically. The previous main character couldn't handle these kinds of convoluted tactics.
"Hmm, probably because he has finally wised up," Ling Chunann was quite satisfied with the main character’s performance.
"Baby, what did Qi Yang want from you just now?" Han Fenglian asked as he started the car.
"I don’t know, you scared him off before he could say," Ling Chunann replied.
Knowing that Ling Chunann wasn't telling the truth, Han Fenglian didn't press further, "What would you like for dinner tonight? How about steak?"
Ling Chunann glanced at Han Fenglian and pointed ahead, "Watch the road."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Han Fenglian braked suddenly.
"Ah!"
A female voice cried out in front of the car. The woman fell about thirty centimeters from the car, and it was clear to any observant onlooker that she had deliberately thrown herself in the path of the vehicle.
"See, that’s what happens when you don’t drive carefully," Ling Chunann said schadenfreudely.
Actually, Han Fenglian’s car had stopped quite steadily, not touching the woman at all. Hearing this, Han Fenglian rolled his eyes in resignation, tapped Ling Chunann on the forehead, "Still happy, wait and see how I deal with you tonight."
Ling Chunann, not at all intimidated by the empty threat, pointed at the circle of onlookers and the woman lying on the ground pretending to be unconscious, "Teacher Han, please."
At this point, the crowd around the car had already started taking photos with their phones, and seeing that no one had come out of the car, they became even more incensed.
A young man holding a phone shouted, "I just can’t stand these people who drive luxury cars, thinking they can do whatever they want on the streets just because they have a bit of money. Expose them, they must be exposed!"
A stylishly dressed middle-aged woman looked worried, "This girl hasn’t moved for so long, she might be dead. Tsk tsk, I recognize this car, it’s a Bokai special edition released last year, only five hundred units worldwide, worth tens of millions, definitely some rich second generation causing trouble again, such sin."
Beside her, a seemingly honest worker blinked, "But I clearly saw that the girl deliberately ran out in front of the car. It didn’t touch her at all."
The honest man's voice was quickly drowned out, leaving only the voices of those resentful of the wealthy, but no one ever called for emergency services throughout.
Han Fenglian got out of the car and looked around. The previous voices of accusation instantly vanished, and the people closest to him even took a step back, then shivered, as if he were a walking freezer.
"Host, it’s Chu Yun, she has fainted," 098 recognized the woman who had thrown herself at the car. "But she’s not weak, seems to be advancing, her body is full of yin energy."
Ling Chunann looked at the various wild ghosts swirling around Chu Yun, flicked an energy wave at a half-rotted female ghost struggling to reach his car’s hood and watched her spin away into Chu Yun’s body, feeling a bit intrigued. However, he also felt it was a pity she still had a significant role to play and couldn’t be captured for research, and the main character seemed quite interested in her as well.
Ignoring the onlookers, Han Fenglian walked up to Chu Yun and said cold
ly, "Get up."
A young man couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up, "She’s fainted, how can she get up? How can you be so heartless? You hit someone and don’t take them to the hospital, but stand here being so cold…"
His voice stopped abruptly as the girl on the ground moved, quickly got up, bowed to the man, "Thank you," and then swiftly darted out of the crowd, showing no signs of injury.
Everyone watched this dramatic scene in stunned silence.
The honest man touched his nose, a hint of smugness on his face, "I told you it was a scam, but why did she thank him?"
However, no one paid him any attention, as the crowd quickly dispersed before Han Fenglian could look their way again, all the while lamenting the decline of societal morals and resolving to be more cautious when driving in the future.
Ling Chunann looked at Han Fenglian, "What was that move you used to wake up Chu Yun just now?"
"Intimidating Soul," Han Fenglian buckled his seatbelt, then paused, "Baby, how did you know her name?" The move had been too light, Han Fenglian thought silently.
