《The Villain’s Redemption》The Villain's Redemption
Advertisement
Li Yue did not want these two to bother her.
However, that was only one of the reasons why she wanted to stay away from them. The second most important reason is due to a lesson she learnt before; one should never incur the jealousy of a female lead. She had been to enough worlds to know that female leads are blessed by the heavens.
Not many people could kill a female lead! And even if they do, they are bound to suffer for the rest of their miserable lives.
Compared to a secondary female lead like herself, female leads not only attract all things nice and beautiful, they also avoid death as if they had some sort of impenetrable armor on. For instance, if they were to be caught up in a shooting incident, someone will always take the bullet for them. They can hack, they can dance, they can sing and are even extremely brilliant! How could she, a small, untalented female character compete with that? Li Yue sighed as she thought about her parent's reactions from earlier.
At first, her mother did not want to leave her in a place with such terrible living conditions. Then she started saying things that just seemed to trip Li Yue with guilt. It was a good thing her father understood. Li Gue really was a smart man, she noted as she smiled. Her parent's informed her that her real parents will contact her within the next few days. They also advised her to give them a chance to get close to her. Of course, she nodded and agreed. She already had a scheme in mind on how to get rid of her biological parents, so seeing them should not be a problem for Li Yue.
She spent the rest of the night applying for universities before she began to draw. Since the Li family wanted her to learn music, her skills in painting did not improve a lot. However, she is adamant on changing this. Moreover, she can also use this talent to earn some money by working in some sites online. After going through a few hours of gauging her skills, she started applying for jobs that involved digital art, primarily line art and sketching. She was very confident that with a little bit of practice she could deliver what was needed for the job.

When Li Yue finished, the sun was already high up in the sky. She immediately turned up her heater before crashing in on her bed, exhausted. Trying to earn money is really hard, ah. Despite hearing her stomach grumble, Li Yue's exhaustion still won over as she fell into another dreamless sleep.
The sound of her phone woke her up. She squinted her eyes in the darkroom, disoriented. It took her some time before she realized that she was actually inside another world and not a nameless person with only her system as a companion. She yawned, reaching towards her phone. However, the call had already ended. "Three missed calls." She put the phone back on the nightstand next to her bed before she started stretching. From the time shown on her phone, it was already eight in the evening. She had actually slept that long! She immediately took a bath and brushed her teeth before making sure that she was warm enough to go out for dinner.
She did not have the time to buy some groceries so she had to rely on fast food for the next few days. Fortunately, her apartment building was located next to the university so there were a lot of fast-food chains in the area. With her long coat on, Li Yue tied her long black hair into a messy bun before leaving her apartment.
It did not take too long for her to find a fast-food chain that she liked. It was a ramen shop that the original Li Yue would never have visited because it did not look posh enough for her standards. When she thought about it, she realized the original Li Yue was extremely superficial. She liked to be seen wearing expensive designer clothing and took pictures as she went on costly vacations just so she could brag in front of her socialite friends. This woman is not only superficial, she is also extremely shallow!

'How embarrassing.' She thought.
'Hey Robot,' she called out.
'My name is not Robot.'
'You didn't tell me what your name was!'
'That's because you haven't even completed one mission.' The voice responded. 'You don't deserve to be my Master, at least not yet.'
Li Yue rolled her eyes. Frowning, she ordered her food at the counter before walking towards a table at the corner of the shop. At eight, the Ramen House is surprisingly not crowded. Of course, this might be because it was still a holiday and students had already gone home to their various respective provinces to spend time with their parents. Eyeing the interior of the room, Li Yue realized that this Ramen House looked extremely simple on the outside, but upon closer inspection, one would not dare think so. The lighting was exquisite, the screens separating the tables from each other were made of antique screen-tile that is clearly not from Yin City. Even the sound of the water running in the background made her cozy.
She will definitely come back and enjoy this place every day! She thought inwardly before a man wearing a black bucket hat sat next to her.
"Listen," his raspy voice reached her ears as the overwhelming smell of musk and aftershave wafted to her nose. "Just act as if… you know me. I will pay you." He snaked his arms across her shoulders, moved closer and took off his huge glasses. "Just name your price… I will pay you to act as my girlfriend."
"Huh?" Frowning, she met his gray eyes. Wait— gray eyes…? She eyed his sharp features.
Contrary to the male lead's charming and gentle face, the man next to her looks…. like a pervert! "What… are you doing?" she elbowed him. In response, he let out a low grunt, his face red. "Don't touch me!" she hissed.
"Don't you recognize me?"
"Should I?" Li Yue retorted before she recalled that the Villain was actually a well-known idol before he became a CEO. Li Yue really wanted to slap her own face. How could she actually have forgotten the villain's background? She watched as disbelief flashed in his eyes.
"Good! Then… pretend to be my girlfriend." He declared before he eyed the entrance of the restaurant. "Some people might recognize me. Move over and pretend that you are talking to me." He said in a low voice.
