Jiaojiao, You Don't Want To... [Yandere Reverse Harem Novel]

Chapter 9 (2/2)

Wen Zhijiao's head tilted unconsciously, like an animal that couldn't understand anything. Her eyes slowly widened, her beautiful, pink lips curved in a dejected arc. Slowly, round, crystal-clear tears flowed from her eyes. She looked at Pei Ye, her instincts driving her to follow his gaze.

Her lips parted, her eyes filled with obvious melancholy and confusion, tears rolling down one by one. "Don't do this. It wasn't Pei Ye, let him go, I lied. I'm sorry, Pei Ye, I made you like this..."

Pei Ye stared blankly at her on the screen. Her face remained expressionless, the bruises on her neck were dotted and vivid, making Pei Ye's eyes feel strangely hot. A fresh anger covered the old anger.

Jiang Yuancheng's gaze narrowed suddenly. He took the phone from the servant, and Pei Ye leaned forward subconsciously, his eyes fixed on the phone.

Jiang Yuancheng looked at Wen Zhijiao on the screen, his voice low, "You're still speaking up for him? If it wasn't him, who was it?"

Wen Zhijiao's voice grew softer, her eyelashes fluttering, "No, no one. It's just an allergy... No one choked me, no one..."

She was telling the truth, but her voice was so pitiful, as if she was hiding some kind of secret.

Pei Ye's breathing became heavier, and countless possibilities flashed through his mind.

Gu Ye just hung up the phone and walked to Pei Ye's side. He also heard the voice and raised his eyebrows slowly. He couldn't help but lean over and say to Pei Ye, who was being held down, "You know, she's acting pretty well."

Pei Ye's breathing was rapid, and he didn't pay any attention to Gu Ye.

Gu Ye didn't bother himself, stood up, and raised his hand, "Give it to me, let me ask."

Jiang Yuancheng looked coldly at Gu Ye, who rolled his eyes, "Fine, I know you don't want to show it to me, so I'll just ask."

He looked at Jiang Yuancheng with a smile, and said to the phone in his hand, "Are you Wen Zhijiao? I'm Jiang Yuancheng's friend, Gu Ye, I have something I want to ask you."

"If no one choked you, where did the marks on your neck come from?"

Gu Ye asked.

For a few seconds, he heard a faint voice coming from the phone, "Allergy."

"Jiang Yuancheng said there are bruises. Allergy marks will not leave bruises after they fade." Gu Ye rationally refuted her, calmly saying, "You don't need to deny that you were choked, but since you said it wasn't Pei Ye who choked you, and you don't want to say who did, can I assume that you accidentally, unintentionally, carelessly left it on your neck—"

"Gu Ye!" Jiang Yuancheng stopped Gu Ye's voice, his eyes becoming fierce, "Shut up!"

Gu Ye waved his hand, about to speak, but heard a soft cry coming from the phone, but the voice just repeated, "You mean, I accidentally, unintentionally, carelessly choked myself like this... Ah, it's not impossible, I often have nightmares... It's all my fault, I, I didn't pay attention..."

He laughed angrily, "Little sister, you're acting too obviously!"

Gu Ye was about to argue, but he heard Pei Ye shout, "Don't pretend!"

Gu Ye looked over in surprise, but saw Pei Ye use his shoulder to forcefully push him away. He was knocked off balance for a moment, and his gold-rimmed glasses were askew. The next second, he heard Pei Ye's voice again, "That's right, I choked her. I just can't stand this kind of woman who climbs the dragon and the phoenix. When you went to City C, this woman has been clinging to you ever since. I just find it unlucky. Wen Zhijiao, you don't need to pretend to be a good person and speak for me. I just think you—"

Before Pei Ye could finish speaking, Jiang Yuancheng grabbed the phone and hung up, punching Pei Ye. The punch was fierce and ruthless, and Pei Ye finally broke free from the people behind him, kicking Jiang Yuancheng's leg and knocking him to the ground. His sharp teeth were stained with blood, revealing a ferocity.

Jiang Yuancheng and Pei Ye were completely entangled in a fight.

Gu Ye hissed, then picked up his phone and called, walking out, "Guanhe, it's me again, they're fighting again. Update the progress, Wen Zhijiao said it was all her fault, and Pei Ye got angry and admitted to choking Wen Zhijiao. You really missed out today, for a little white lotus, a lame bum and a hooligan are fighting each other."

Xie Guanhe paused, "Don't talk so rudely."

Gu Ye still smiled, the long eyes under his gold-rimmed glasses were cold, "I really can't stand it anymore, after so many years of relationship, they fought like this because of a mountain chicken who wants to become a phoenix, it's not cool."

Xie Guanhe said, "Let's see, the engagement ceremony is only a few days away."

He raised his hand and hung up the phone.

The phone was flipped over on the table, and a hand tapped on the edge of the table.

Wen Zhijiao wiped the tears from her face, her diamond-studded nails tapped on the table, and her face had a bewildered expression, "Master, why do you look so unhappy? I did what you said."

The master's face became increasingly livid, as if suppressing anger, "I told you to admit your mistake! I told you to be honest with yourself, why did you say it like that?"

She was furious and began to press Wen Zhijiao's shoulders and questioned, "Why do you have to be like this?!"

Wen Zhijiao asked in confusion, "Like what?"

The master said, "Why do you have to use that tone, and that expression, just... as if you were forced, as if you had a secret? Also, at the end, why did you repeat Gu Ye's words like that? It will only exacerbate their conflict! Can't you just sincerely apologize?"

She said the last few words, her consciousness became unclear, and a clear mechanical voice came from her mind.

【Task failed, current important plot node loading error, regenerating plot】

Accompanied by the mechanical sound, there was Wen Zhijiao's usual sweet, gentle, but assertive voice: "That would only make the three of them hate me and deal with me. I don't want that. At least I don't need to make Jiang Yuancheng angry now."

The master was silent for a long time, closed her eyes, and said again, "Then, go contact Pei Ye these two days, how about that?"

Wen Zhijiao touched her nails, her eyelashes fluttered, "Master, we've been meeting for a long time, although you seem to be very spiritual, you always order me around. I don't like it, can you... show me some supernatural powers or something? Otherwise, I'll feel weird."

The master looked over, but met Wen Zhijiao's eyes. Her eyes were beautiful, but at this moment, there was a kind of animal alertness in them. She didn't even notice the alertness, it was just her instincts driving her to react like this.

The master was silent for a long time, and said, "On the day of the engagement, I can help you get rid of Jiang Yuancheng, on the condition that... you do what I say. Now, what I can do for you is that you can go out and roam freely without being restrained here, without anyone knowing."

She said again, "For example, I can let you see Pei Ye later."

Wen Zhijiao: "...? Why do I have to go see him? I want to see that someone, that wait, anyway, it's my first love, okay? No, how are you going to help me? Master? Master, are you talking?"

"Because you're going through Pei Ye's pre-plot! So you can't see anyone else! Also, how does this female supporting character have a first love! What the hell has this ancient romance world become?!"

The master covered her head, her emotions were on the verge of collapse.
