Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 82: Feng Ru (40)



Chapter 82: Feng Ru (40)

Yesterday before midnight, Feng Ru came back to Jiang Li badly injured. 

"...", 'I didn't know the plot is so protective of the female lead. It even gave her wonderful cheats against supernatural beings even though the world is just a normal modern one. Holy f*ck! I'm so pissed off!'

Due to seeing the villainess looking so pitiful and almost transparent, Jiang Li felt like he could already see himself failing the mission and so his mood sunk way too low. Not even news of Tang Lan's imprisonment could uplift it. As a result, even though he was only supposed to do magic on Tang Lan's published web novels, his finger accidentally slipped and pictures showing her direct involvement with several unsolved homicide cases and bizarre crimes in the city were anonymously sent to the male lead.

Unlike in the original story, the two leads didn't have much progress in their relationship due to Feng Ru's lack of involvement. Of course, the almighty fate tried to bring them close. However, without the villainess' inexplicable clues and accidental matchmaking moves, the supposed near-death experiences naturally didn't happen. This meant there were also no repeated cases of 'misattribution of arousal' which should have allowed Tang Lan to cultivate feelings with Gu Feng.

In short, the two leads were nowhere close to being together yet. In fact, since he sent those stuff to the ever-so-righteous police officer, it was very possible that those two's ship had already broken into two and sunk to the bottom of the ocean! 

Jiang Li checked the sent files one last time and nodded in satisfaction. 'After this, let's see if that Gu Feng will still like that sick woman.' 

The muted system, "..."

'... Sighs. That sick woman he's speaking of is currently a blackening female lead, someone whose resentment will surely destroy this world once she dies as crazy as she is right now.'

The system somewhere in one corner of his brain was crying since it knew once they were back to the void-like space, it would be blamed and scolded for not telling him this piece of information. 

Jiang Li didn't know about this yet. The guy had gone to the meeting called by his band's team leader. After the mini-celebration, he and his bandmates ran around the city for fan meetups and events. Everything was for publicity and to earn more fans that would then buy or download their songs. 

"You guys are still a sensation online." With a refreshing smile on her lips, Na Yu helped Nangong Xue distribute energy drinks to the tired members. They were at a break room in a local TV station, resting here after a performance.

"I saw it too, Miss Na." Little Nian's eyes were very bright, almost shining like the sun as he accepted the can of beverage with one hand and pulled out his phone from his bag using the other.

"Comments are positive. Everything's going nice, apart from Brother He receiving more shoutouts of love than me. But putting that aside, it's all just so wonderful. The one thing I'm mostly happy about is our album sales! The figures' going up by hundreds every ten minutes!"

"Treat that as the reward for your hard work," said Xie Delan.

"Don't exclude yourself, bro. We all worked hard for this. We're all awesome! Haha!" replied Little Nian.

While everyone else was exchanging jokes and small talks with each other, the strangely silent Su Xuefeng whose face spoke so much distress suddenly approached Na Yu with a box in hand.

"Manager, I've got a huge problem here. A fan handed this to me and given how nice I am to them, I have no choice other than accepting. Now though, what should I do with this?"

Cheng Du briefly looked at the item and then commented, "... I pity you, my brother. Such a small thing is actually troubling you. Heh, it must be tough being a single dog."

Jiang Li who was busy scrolling through his phone got curious why the Big Bro's voice was filled with so much disdain and sarcasm. When he raised his head, it was just in time to see the girl's face reddening in embarrassment. 

'Hmm?' Only when he saw the box' packaging did he understand what was going in. His expression darkened, "RASCAL SU!" 

"Yes?" The blonde confused by the angry shout turned around. A second later, he regretted doing so. 

"F*ck! Ouch, my eyes! Brother He! What's the problem with you?! Ahhhh! My eyes are burning!!!" Su Xuefeng covered his eyes and tried to rub off whatever had gotten in. His hair that had been dyed blonde was now dripping of red liquid. When the other guys checked where the pianist got that, they saw a box of pizza next on the table next to their vocalist.

'Oh, I see. Makes sense now. Hot sauce.' 

Now they knew why the bastard ran off shouting 'Water.' Their pianist was very pitiful, ah!

But what surprised them was the fact that their Brother He cruelly threw a whole uncapped bottle at Rascal Su. Why did he do that again?

Jiang Li met their questioning gazes with a glare. "He deserves it." 

Brother Xie squinted at the item which Jiang Li picked up."Uhhh, well, it's hard to refute that."

He inwardly thought, right, who told that stupid guy to ask a girl about that. It was Su Xuefeng who courted trouble. When thought about carefully, he should actually be glad that all he got was some hot sauce in his hair and eyes.

As Jiang Li tossed the box to the trash bin he authoritatively said to Na Yu, "You didn't see anything. Forget about it, okay? Erase it from your memory." 

The blushing girl blankly stared at him so Jiang Li repeated what he said. Only after this did she recover from her gazed state and blurted out, "I know that's what I should do. But how am I, someone with a photographic memory, going to do that? Even now, I can vividly see in my imagination what the box looks like. I, I can't believe fans are that caring..."

"To think they will even gift condoms to their idols..."

The last part was said in a voice so small only Jiang Li who stood next to her heard it. The guy's mouth twitched.

'... Actually, even I never imagine the industry is this dirty, even fans are so open about this kind of stuff.' 

As for his bandmates, all of them exchanged knowing looks seeing the interaction between Na Yu and He Chen. Not much actually happened, just their brother throwing a fit and coming to the rescue of the embarrassed manager. Their conversation was not much too. But all of them could see that something was different.

'How come we never know this two are actually cute together and could be an item?'

'Wait, maybe they already sneaked behind our backs and secretly became an item?!'

Thinking of this possibility, the boys and the spectating short girl gasped. They almost started interrogating the two were it not for remembering that artists were not allowed to have dating scandals, or even if allowed, they must keep it a tightly guarded secret.
