Female lead’s Delusion of Starting Over

Chapter 129: Forgiveness Is for the Protagonist, I’m the Villain

The offensive against the Zhang and Xiao families was far simpler than it had been for the Zhang Corporation. If it hadn’t been for Zhang Ziqin’s moment of folly and poor judgment, with the Zhang family’s foundation, they could have held out longer.

These two families were nowhere near the scale of the Zhang family, not even comparable to the Liu and Su families. With massive amounts of capital poured in without regard for cost, their downfall was swift.

Sighing somewhat uninterestedly, it wasn’t long before Li Zichuan’s call came in.

“Damn, you actually did it, took down those two families just like that.” Li Zichuan’s tone was full of surprise, aware that his big brother’s capabilities had been severely hampered by Zhang Ziqin and Lu Ya before.

Seeing Lu Li stir up storms in Hangzhou, Li Zichuan was genuinely happy. Without those two disasters, his brother had soared high. But he hadn’t expected Lu Li to be so effective!

It had only been a few hours since work began, not even a full day, and those two families were already gone.

“Made a loss for the sake of a shout-out, didn’t earn a penny!” But there wasn’t a loss either, at most, he had to pay these executives a bit more for their work, since they were helping him out.

But in the face of such a glorious victory, a little extra salary was really a non-issue. No, not even an issue at all.

If he took his time, he certainly could have made a good profit from it, something Chen Xiaoyi managed when she first entered the workforce. There’s no reason Lu Li couldn’t do it, only better.

But he pursued speed, opting for a swift and shocking impact.

“Damn you, finishing off two large corporations in a day is already a miracle, and you still want to earn, no wait, you didn’t earn? You didn’t lose money?” Li Zichuan cursed before stopping abruptly, incredulously asking.

“Well, not really, since I still have to pay salaries to my employees!” Lu Li smirked, enjoying the feeling of showing off to a friend.

“Go to hell, Lu Li!” It took Li Zichuan a while to squeeze out such a sentence.

“Hahahaha! Alright, I’m short on people right now. Help me find Xiao Lin and Zhang Binghan, send them a message for me!”

“Tell Xiao Lin, ‘Didn’t you say you wanted me to pay?'”

“To Zhang Binghan, say, ‘Weren’t you trying to use me and have your boyfriend teach me a lesson?’ No need to specify names, they’ll definitely remember.”

People might forget everything about the protagonist and the heroine, but they’ll never forget their grudges. It’s been two days, and they still haven’t found out about me, utterly useless.

They’re still putting on airs, thinking about using me!

As a villain, how could I not kick them while they’re down? Forgiving and sparing people is something protagonists do. You’re bankrupt now, just live with it! That’s something for protagonists.

Lu Li’s kindness was reserved for the right people, Aunt Su, Li Zichuan!

As for others, sorry, not my concern!

Dealing with Zhang Ziqin, I’ve already been too kind, letting her off easy, otherwise, who knows what she’d go through!

“Lu Li, you’ve even taken the pandas’ food, you know?” That’s too awesome!

But… really damn satisfying.

Li Zichuan wouldn’t think it’s too much. His world is small, only big enough for two people, his mom and Lu Li. The rest, he doesn’t care about.

“Quit your yapping, will you help or not!”

“You’re the one yapping, you’ve already said it, how can I not help!” Li Zichuan rolled his eyes.

“Alright, let’s have dinner together tonight and take those people you arranged to protect me away. My people are arriving tonight, don’t let them cause any trouble.” Lu Li grinned, he had said before, he liked the feeling of being favored.

With no father’s love, no mother’s care, and a sister who always schemes against him, the little villain also has someone who loves him!

Squinting his eyes, he comfortably lay back in his chair.

“Damn, I just asked them to be a bit more careful, to protect you secretly, and you still found out.” Li Zichuan exclaimed in surprise.

“Heh heh, the girl by my side is no ordinary person! She’s an assassin, a very badass one, those little security details you arranged can’t even hide properly.” Speaking of Yu Meng, she’s currently at home starting to deal with the security issues of the manor, hmm, truly a nice girl.

In every aspect!

“You’re lying, how can you even say that with a straight face, an assassin? Why not claim she’s the number one martial artist in the world!”

Lu Li frowned: “Hmm… it’s almost the same, the world’s second-best assassin!”

“Go to hell! You’re getting more ridiculous!” Li Zichuan said irritably, still the world’s second, still an assassin, Yu Meng?

That girl who blushes just being held by Lu Li is supposed to be that?

“…” Does nobody believe the truth these days?

Yu Meng is indeed the world’s second-best assassin after Ye Chen! You’re Li Zichuan, and I’m telling you, yet you don’t believe!

“Alright, I’ll withdraw the people, but you be careful, my dad’s looking for me, I’m hanging up!” Li Zichuan said and didn’t wait for Lu Li’s response before hanging up.

Lu Li shrugged and put down the phone, standing up.

Time to pick up the wife!

***

“Lu Li! Lu Li!! LU LI!!!” Three cries of Lu Li, each louder and more venomous than the last.

Ye Chen’s eyes were bloodshot, his tone filled with hatred and darkness, all because of this man, he was forced to flee from Hangzhou to Magic City like a dog kicked out of its home, because of this man, he lost his fingers, becoming a complete cripple.

All because of Lu Li.

A hatred so deep it couldn’t be shared under the same sky made Ye Chen’s eyes burn with rage, wishing he could confront Lu Li right now.

“Calm down, Xiaochen!” An old and authoritative voice sounded.

“Grandpa!!” Ye Chen’s eyes were filled with an indescribable intent to kill.

“You won’t be able to take your revenge like this,” Old Master Chen sternly eyed his grandson, caring deeply for the bloodline his daughter left in this world.

“Huff, huff!” After taking two deep breaths, Ye Chen managed to suppress the rampant murderous intent in his heart.

“This Lu Li is not an easy target. Just entering Magic City, he’s already connected with that Li Zichuan, meaning he’s in with the Li family, one of the top families in Magic City, not so easily dealt with. If you want to go against Lu Li, you must first sever their relationship,” Old Master Chen analyzed calmly.

Chen Ya, standing behind him, had a flash of cold light in her eyes.

Even the Chen family is mostly owned by Lu Li now, and you’re still thinking about going against him.

Ironically thinking, her heart couldn’t help but feel a bit sorrowful. Lu Li had come to Magic City and hadn’t looked for her. Did she seem that insignificant?

She could help Lu Li too, okay!
