Chapter 24: Pure Love Invincible

The rope slipped away like the wind, and your life was like a candle in the wind…

As the force from the rope in her hand vanished,the silver-haired beautiful girl seemed to hang motionless in the air for a moment,weightless.

Immediately after, a powerful tug came from below her.

Falling.

Luo Tianyou strained to reach out, but the balcony, which she was just about to reach, was getting farther and farther away.

‘I’m going to fall!’

The wind howled past.

Luo Tianyou slammed heavily onto the illegally extended balcony of the 11th-floor resident, the breath knocked out of her chest, her thighs twitching.

She clutched her head and curled into a shrimp.
‘It hurts so much…’
‘It hurts…’

“Holy crap! [Enemy detected!] Damn it, trying to forcibly demolish the eleventh floor in the middle of the night? Not so easy!”
“Today, my balcony and I shall coexist!”

Sounds came from inside the 11th-floor balcony, quickly growing noisy, and even the faint sound of a weapon being loaded could be heard.

Luo Tianyou took several seconds to recover before standing up from the illegally extended metal sheet, grabbing her own balcony above, and barely managing to climb back.

She lay on the floor, gasping for breath.

Once she finally collected herself,
Luo Tianyou pulled out her phone, quickly found the Taobao store and her order, and swiftly gave a one-star bad review under the “Nylon Rope for Adultery-Specific Floor Climbing” product.

It was also the only bad review.
‘Perhaps everyone else who bought it fell to their death.’
“Don’t let me ever see you, shop owner, or I’ll beat you every time I see you.”

Luo Tianyou’s face was full of indignation, still a bit shaken.
‘I almost fell to my death.’
‘Luckily there was the 11th floor’s illegal extension, otherwise I’d only be able to indulge in fantasies from now on.’
“No, I can’t just let this go. Not only does Lin Yi have a fiancée, but there’s also that strange woman who attacked him last night, and she even lives right across from him. This kind of plot with an ‘other woman’ next door—if I don’t do something, Lin Yi will turn into her shape!”

Luo Tianyou leaned against the glass door of the balcony and posted her question in the club’s WeChat group.
[Pure Love Invincible: Everyone, I have a question. If someone’s crush has a fiancée, and then an “other woman” lives right across from him and attacks him in the middle of the night, what should they do? Of course, I’m asking for a friend; it has nothing to do with me personally.]

[Slay All NTRs: Simple. For this kind of NTR scenario, it’s about who gets there first. As long as you snatch the man you like before that “other woman” does, he’ll become your shape!]

[FelineFat: That method isn’t great. What if the man you like develops some strange fetish (XP) because of your tactics? You’ll be the one suffering in the end, and that “other woman” will still get what she wants, leaving you as the cuckold.]

[Slay The Other Woman: Exactly. And the person you like already has a fiancée? Then first, you need to make that fiancée leave. Otherwise, if you keep interacting with the person you like in private, be careful, it might awaken their fetish (XP), and then you’ll still end up getting cuckolded.]

The chat group was abuzz with various opinions.
But no one offered a useful solution.
Just as Luo Tianyou was about to give up, she noticed a woman with a blank name and an avatar said something very peculiar.

[ (Blank Name): No, sis, you’re using the handle “Pure Love Invincible” and saying your crush has a fiancée? Does that make sense? You’re coveting a married man, sis. Is your fetish (XP) messed up? I feel like you’re the real NTR.]

[Pure Love Invincible: Admin, can you mute this person?]

[ (Blank Name): Triggered? Are you getting defensive already?]

Luo Tianyou clenched her small fists, her face flushed with anger.
‘Why isn’t it pure love just because the person I like has a fiancée?’
‘Nonsense!’
‘I’m not coveting a married man; it just so happens that the person I like has a fiancée!’
Luo Tianyou really wanted to leave the group.
‘We’re all in the same group, all independent women striving for progress in the new era. Can’t we give each other a little face when we talk?’
‘Wouldn’t it be better to be a bit more tactful?’
‘I’m going to die from anger.’

Luo Tianyou returned to the living room and rubbed her butt, which was sore from the fall.
Luckily, she had enough flesh, so it wasn’t too serious.
She lay on the sofa and opened the live stream of the surveillance videos connected to her phone.
Gazing at Lin Yi’s peaceful sleeping face in the bedroom, a happy smile instantly blossomed on her face.
She wiggled her little feet and tilted her head adorably.
‘Ah.’
‘Sure enough, as long as I keep voyeuristically watching Lin Yi, I can achieve peaceful happiness.’

It gradually lightened.
The horizon turned a fish-belly white.
Zhuang Yayun had already gotten up, gathered all her belongings, and quietly left the room.
She took the elevator down to the underground parking lot.
There, Bai Shuang was already waiting for her in a car.

“Are you really leaving?”

Bai Shuang helped her put her luggage into the car.

“I really have to go. You know, I was fired.”

Zhuang Yayun sighed and got into the passenger seat.

“But there’s no need to leave this city, is there? With your education and experience, you could find a job at another company and earn the same salary as you do now.”

“It’s different. I can feel that the company was under immense pressure to lay me off this time. The CEO specifically talked to me alone for a while, and everything she said implied that laying me off wasn’t her original intention.”

“…Your family made the company fire you?” Bai Shuang’s eyes revealed surprise.

“Yes. Since my family has made a move, I won’t be able to find work anywhere in this city. I have to go somewhere very, very far away, at least so my family can’t find me for a while.”

Zhuang Yayun fastened her seatbelt, opened the car window, tilted her head, and her eyes held a hint of disappointment.

“Then, what about Lin Yi? He’s your fiancé… Oh, wait, your family probably pressured the company to fire you because of Lin Yi.”

Bai Shuang suddenly understood.

“For a hundred years, my family has believed in female-female unions, and it’s continued to this day. I’ve always detested it since I was little; those female-female unions are all cults. Including myself, we are all unqualified products born from female-female unions. In this world, only male-female unions can produce truly healthy offspring.”

“The current head of your family is a rigid old matriarch, and the more rigid someone is, the less likely they are to use other methods when their family declines. They will only become more radical in adhering to ancestral rules, until the entire family eventually meets its end.”

Bai Shuang sighed.

“Bai Shuang, Lin Yi will be in your care from now on. I might not contact you for a very long time.”
Hearing Zhuang Yayun’s words, Bai Shuang said nothing more.

Instead, she started the car and slowly drove out of the underground parking lot.
Their destination was the airport.
And Zhuang Yayun’s destination was the northernmost point, one thousand eight hundred kilometers from the city.

Zhuang Yayun gazed at the empty street.

It was only 6:30 AM.

‘Since I left so early, is Lin Yi awake?’
‘Will Lin Yi be very disappointed that I left without saying goodbye, thinking I don’t like him anymore?’
‘But,’
‘It’s not that she didn’t want to take Lin Yi with her. It’s just that her family had already found her here. If she still took Lin Yi with her, wouldn’t her family really use some drastic measures?’
‘She was very worried about Lin Yi getting hurt.’
‘Rather than facing her family’s tactics with Lin Yi, it was better for her to leave quietly alone and face whatever methods her family might employ by herself.’
‘As long as she left Lin Yi, he would be safe.’

Zhuang Yayun clenched her fists tightly.
‘Times change, fortunes shift. Don’t think you can drive me back to the family like this.’
‘My parents are dead. I will no longer distinguish between right and wrong, and it’s even less possible for me to acknowledge the family.’
‘And now they want to destroy the feelings between Lin Yi and me.’
‘Just wait,’
‘Once I gain my own strength, I will flatten your decaying family!’
“Lin Yi… maybe not in half a month, maybe a month, two months, or even half a year, but I’ll come back for you. When that time comes, I’ll marry you with the most grand wedding imaginable.”
