Chapter 3: Sudden Encounter at the Side Door

As the female lead, she was not only a top student with great luck, but her looks were first-class too.

That face, that figure, that temperament…

Every inch, every detail, was exactly what Gu Qianqian liked.

If someone told her Lin Feiyu’s farts smelled like perfume and her shit tasted like chocolate, she’d believe it.

So-called love at first sight, while mostly just lust at first sight, Gu Qianqian felt she couldn’t really blame herself for lacking self-control.

It was the female lead who played too unfairly!

In this world where morality follows looks, Gu Qianqian thought she was a shallow person, as shallow as her name.

No helping it. People always showed the greatest tolerance for beautiful things.

Even if she was a femme fatale, even if she turned dark and reincarnated, all those tough words were just talk before meeting her in person.

If they met her, they’d inevitably drop all prior prejudice and fall at her feet.

Who wouldn’t love a super beautiful silver-haired, blue-eyed girl?

In that moment, Gu Qianqian even had the absurd thought, [Getting killed by her might be a nice reward].

When she snapped back to reality, she broke out in a cold sweat.

Was this the female lead’s halo? How terrifying.

It could make people involuntarily want to forgive her, even look forward to being abused by her…

But these were all forced, involuntary, and willing thoughts under the female lead’s halo…

Pfft, pfft, pfft!

Gu Qianqian, your brain’s fried!

Right now, the two met in this narrow side door, unable to ignore each other.

They couldn’t just go their separate ways either, so Gu Qianqian was sweating bullets.

She couldn’t help screaming internally:

“What do I do, what do I do!? Dog system, dog system!”

“Dog host, don’t look at me. I’m just a useless system that needs favor points to help you (●´∀`●).”

“(◣_◢) Thanks for that self-introduction, dog system. Didn’t you say you had sentience? From what I see, you’re barely better than an ant. Why not let Xi Recycle pick you up and sell you for fifty cents?”

“You dog host… Fine, to prove this system is the smartest in the universe, I’ll give you a suggestion…”

“Spit it out!”

“The female lead Lin Feiyu, whether in her past or present life, has never even touched a boy’s hand or kissed a girl’s lips. She’s a pure flower. When things look bad, just grope her. Even though she’s turned dark, she can’t handle that. It’ll definitely work!”

Hearing this terrible idea, Gu Qianqian wished she could punch the system’s dog head off.

Let alone whether she could even do it given their difference in strength, even if she did, she’d probably be chopped into mincemeat and fed to the dogs afterward.

If her affection level were high enough, doing such a thing would be sweet romance.

But with low or even negative affection, doing it now was basically seeking death.

“Host, at least you’d get a thrill before dying.”

Her fist clenched.

Her fist clenched harder.

All these thoughts and internal dialogue took only about ten seconds in reality.

Right now, in Lin Feiyu’s eyes, this little blue-haired shrimp who had always treated her badly, mocked her, and bullied her at school, was carrying a cute yellow duck backpack, looking like she was fleeing…

Strangely, the girl who always used to look down her nose at her with such arrogance now seemed especially fragile and scared.

Was this really Gu Qianqian?

Even when Lin Feiyu blocked her way, she didn’t curse and kick like before?

Lin Feiyu smiled.

Remembering all the past life experiences where this little shrimp had bullied her, Lin Feiyu now felt nothing but joy.

Yeah, she almost forgot this enemy.

Though it was just petty bullying, to her, it was no different from those who betrayed, deceived, or tried to kill her.

They all deserved death.

How should I take revenge on her?

Those little arms and legs would probably break with a light snap, right?

It would definitely make a beautiful cracking sound, and then she’d cry for a long time, right?

Why hadn’t she noticed in her past life that she’d been bullied for so long by this little punk, who was shorter, worse at studies, weaker, and had a worse background than her!?

Heh.

She probably thought I wouldn’t fight back and was easy to push around, so she acted so recklessly and fearlessly, right?

But this life is different.

Just thinking about the various tortures flashing through her mind being used on this little shrimp filled her with delight.

Reincarnation is really great.

All those who bullied me, betrayed me, harmed me…

I’ll make you taste utter destruction!

Gu Qianqian saw Lin Feiyu’s sudden smile and her heart skipped a beat.

Geez!

No wonder she’s the female lead. Her smile is so sweet and alluring.

But those eyes are too cold.

So cold, like countless knives slashing at her, making Gu Qianqian dare not entertain any absurd fantasy like ‘She smiled at me, maybe she likes me.’

“Um… could you step aside? I need to get out.”

After being stuck here for so long with no one coming, Gu Qianqian was about to cry. Who could come help her out of this!?

If this went on, she couldn’t guarantee she wouldn’t collapse from fear.

So she forced herself to speak to the other girl.

As for acting like the original Gu Qianqian and yelling ‘A good dog doesn’t block the way,’ then kicking the female lead’s knee out, she really didn’t have the guts.

In her past life, she was just an ordinary person who was cowardly, perverted, useless, and full of self-pity. Even after transmigrating, she couldn’t instantly become brave and wise.

“Heh, Gu Qianqian, you’re acting strange today.”

Lin Feiyu’s voice was pleasant, like a bird singing, but it was too cold.

Just like her eyes.

It put immense pressure on Gu Qianqian.

The other party directly called out her suspicion, scaring Gu Qianqian into thinking she’d seen through something, and her voice trembled.

“Ah? I, I… is that so? No, it’s not. Ah, ahaha…”

The obviously forced smile and the nervous, fidgety scratching of her head made Lin Feiyu, who had only been speaking casually, drop her smile and turn serious.

If Gu Qianqian had still been bullying her like before, Lin Feiyu would have taught her a lesson right here.

After all, Gu Qianqian had no background. Even if she was beaten and cried, she’d just have to take it.

But her strange reaction made Lin Feiyu wary.

Since she herself could be reborn, could someone else have come back with their memories too?

Was Gu Qianqian like that?

Was that why her behavior was so abnormal?

Because she hadn’t forgotten how she, in her past life, was kicked and thrown under the bridge to feed wild dogs?

Admittedly, in that moment, Lin Feiyu thought of many possibilities. Having suffered too many betrayals and deceptions, she was no longer the innocent flower she’d been in her past life.

Instead, she thought of every scenario, always leaning toward the worst.

Lin Feiyu coldly watched the little shrimp sweating nervously before her, and the more she thought, the more likely it seemed.

“Gu Qianqian, do you remember Huifeng Bridge?”

“Huh? What?”

Out of nowhere, she asked that?

Lin Feiyu kept staring at her expression and movements. Seeing Gu Qianqian’s unfeigned reaction, as if she really didn’t know about the place where she’d died miserably in her past life…

She didn’t have past-life memories? She wasn’t reborn?

No, if that were the case, why was she so afraid of her?

According to her past-life experience, at this time, Gu Qianqian should still be one of those who bullied her at school. She wouldn’t be scared or nervous around her.

Even her tone was so weak.

Or was this all acting?

She was afraid of being found out?

Heh, interesting.

Regardless of whether Gu Qianqian knew anything, Lin Feiyu had no intention of letting her leave her control today, until she died!

But making a move on campus was unwise for her, who had just returned and hadn’t yet built up enough strength.

To survive and take revenge, she had to hide the fact that she was a reborn person with insider knowledge until she was strong enough.

Fortunately, this upcoming off-campus activity would be dangerous.

It was normal for one or two students like Gu Qianqian to die, right?

But letting a monster bite her to death was too easy.

I’ll torment you properly first, then kill you, Gu Qianqian.

After quickly planning all this in her head, Lin Feiyu smiled: “Nothing. I just suddenly thought of that.”

“Let’s not talk about it. Gu Qianqian, are you heading to the cafeteria to eat? Let’s go.”

Seeing Lin Feiyu tilt her head and smile sweetly, inviting her, like a smiling tiger, Gu Qianqian was so scared she shook her head: “No, I’m not. I’m not hungry…”

“Then where are you going with that backpack?” Lin Feiyu’s smile instantly turned cold.

It was like plunging from spring into winter.

You’d believe she’d stab you any second.

Gu Qianqian quickly tried to remedy it: “But now that I think about it, it does seem like mealtime. I’m a bit hungry actually.”

Lin Feiyu smiled again and reached out her hand: “Then let’s go. Your card’s on me, right?”

“Mm, mm…” Gu Qianqian reached out tremblingly, nearly crying.

This person was scary. Her face changed faster than turning pages.
