  • by John Davis Li Yue turned silent at the system’s words. Last Chance. That single phrase was enough to make her stop whatever it is that she was about to do. This is her last chance. Her lips thinned, her hands clenched as she thought about the memories that she lost. The system told her she still has a chance to get her life back. However, she does not remember anything. Not her name and certainly not the reason why she was traveling to different worlds, saving protagonists and redeeming its villains. With…
  • by John Davis "You really want to do this?" Li Yue asked, her eyes narrowed onto the woman in front of her. "You really want to do this?" Lu Xinyi mimicked her in a mocking tone. "Do what? You mean this?" she said as she lifted her heels and tried to step on Li Yue’s hands on the floor. Good thing she was quick enough to remove her hand. Wordlessly, Li Yue stood before Lu Xinyi, eyeing the CCTV camera that was located at the corner of the corridor. "Oh! You think that will help you?" Lu Xinyi sneered. "I can…
  • by John Davis "The only good thing that happened to her after her death is that I was able to possess her body." She beamed as she began to think If she should release the videos for everyone to watch in schadenfreude. After all, Lu Xinyi didn’t really succeed in her plans. Her system reminded her. "You seem to be very adamant about having me create some drama." She responded. She was alone anyway, there’s no harm in talking to this robot outside of her head. "Are you perhaps... looking for some…
  • by John Davis Surprisingly, the man didn’t bother following her. This instantly made her mouth smile. She still had a lot of other things to take care of, she can’t babysit this man-child forever, ah. Li Yue took a taxi back to her apartment as she pondered the villain’s dominant attitude. ’Scary,’ she thought. He wasn’t even in full villain mode yet and he is already that demanding, irritating, direct, and impatient. He had even called her lazy on multiple occasions! ’How rude.’ First of all, she is…
  • by John Davis It did not take too long for Mo Li to return with a lawyer on the same day of their conversation. Of course, this is not surprising as he was, after all an idol. He always has access to lawyers and PR specialists who can easily bail him out when encountering something that could possibly ruin his reputation. After signing the contract, Mo Li promptly told her to move. She needs to stay at his place as a part of their deal. He had even graciously helped her pack her things just to speed things up. As to…
  • by John Davis "Do you have to think about money all the time?" She pursed her lips in response. Is that even a valid question? She had been telling him time and time again just how poor she was. It’s either his comprehensive ability is that low or he’s really just ridiculously dumb, she thought inwardly. "Alright, I understand." He continued. "I need you to pretend as my girlfriend and show up with me during family events." "Like parties?" He nodded. "I’ll be paying you a monthly salary." "How much…
  • by John Davis Instead of answering, Li Yue opened the door and glared at him "I’ve already told you, that’s not going to happen." "Why not?" He was leaning against the frame of her door, looking down on her as if she had just said something truly hurtful. This man is a natural actor, Li Yue thought inwardly. "As I said—I’m not yet ready to die. I’m sure your teenage fans will grab every opportunity possible to strangle me." "But they won’t know." "Then, why the hell would you like to have a…
  • by John Davis "No!" Li Yue barked. "Why are you shouting?" "Because you’re being annoying!" Li Yue said before walking to her room. "Stay there! Don’t you dare come inside my room." "Or?" She squinted her eyes. "Or... I’ll kill you." With a loud bang, she closed the door behind her. How could this Mo Li be so... hateful? ’He is the villain." The robotic voice chimed in. ’He was born to become hateful.’ "Thank you very much for your enlightenment." Sarcasm laced her tone as she thought back…
  • by John Davis "You’re too small." "I never said you’ll wear my clothes." She gave him a look before slowly taking off her coat. "This should fit you perfectly." He nodded in response. "What about you?" "You’ll have to hug me." If not, she really will freeze to death. "Are you— Are you suggesting that we pretend to be lovers again?" he frowned. "Are you perhaps addicted to pretending as my lover?" "You know what?" Li Yue snatched back her coat. "I’ll just leave you here. I’m hungry. I’ll just…
  • by John Davis It was Mo Li, sitting comfortably in one unlucky cubicle. This— this does not make any sense at all! "What are you doing here?" Li Yue frowned. Questions upon questions started swirling in her head. "And why the hell is the cubicle unlocked?" Exactly what the hell is wrong with this absurd situation? "I should be the one asking that question. Are you going to stand there forever?" the latter asked calmly, ignoring her questions before pulling her inside. He stood away from the bowl and gestured by…
