176. The First Villain
A long night’s sleep.
The next day, after Wen Han dropped Little Yuan off at the kindergarten, she walked behind the building.
A black light flashed.
In the next second, she appeared inside the Recycling Station.
“Mission accomplished.”
The rose tattoo on her chest bloomed brilliantly.
Wen Han flicked her hair, and the body-hugging skirt accentuated her more seductive figure.
“Why aren’t you speaking?”
She frowned and approached Lin Wuju.
The latter finally put down his cigar, exhaling a puff of smoke: “Accomplished?”
“Hmm? Don’t you believe me?”
Lin Wuju smiled slightly as he looked at her close-by figure: “I do, but not entirely.”
“Not enough?” Wen Han stood up. “Based on my judgment, Su Zeheng definitely won’t be able to get back to work in two months. Forcing him to work will only lead to constant mistakes.”
“There are still others in the Light Magic Society.” Lin Wuju picked up the cigar again. After a moment of silence, he suddenly looked up: “Perhaps we should consider splitting the Light Magic Society.”
“Is that so?” Wen Han tilted her head. “Xiao Lin, do you want me to seduce others?” She laughed coldly. “Do you know how much like an old madam you look, forcing innocent girls to fall?”
“… No.” Lin Wuju shook his head. “Taking them one by one is too slow, and Su Zeheng’s situation depends on you having had this idea and laid the groundwork long ago for it to succeed smoothly. Others… they probably have their guard up now.”
“What do you mean then?” Wen Han picked up the cigar and sniffed it. “I really don’t understand what’s good about smoking!”
She casually threw it into the trash.
Lin Wuju glanced at the trash bin silently, then faintly smiled: “Do you want to know which is more important to Su Zeheng—his work or you?”
“Oh?” Wen Han raised her eyebrows. “What else do you want to play with this poor uncle?”
Lin Wuju laughed: “It seems… you also want to know, right?”
…
“I never want to see you again!”
In the dim room, Su Zeheng stood exhausted by the window, in a state of soul wandering.
He stared blankly at the starry sky.
This was the first time… he felt suffocated, as if he thought of many things, but his mind was empty.
“Gurgle… gurgle… gurgle…”
Water slowly went down his throat.
Gradually getting used to not smoking, he sat alone desolately, picking up his phone repeatedly but never dialing back.
“I… hurt her.”
Wen Han had been showing signs of improvement, but I destroyed it myself.
I admit I like her, but I chose not to trust her just like everyone else.
Little Yuan, Mother Wen, Lin Na…
The faces of Wen Han’s relatives and friends floated in his mind, as if questioning why he did this?
Su Zeheng irritably grabbed his hair, and sneered when he saw the fallen hair through his fingers.
“Maybe I shouldn’t have liked her from the beginning.”
But when did I start to like Wen Han? He wasn’t sure himself.
And…
“Now saying you shouldn’t like her… Su Zeheng, don’t you think you’re ridiculous and shameless?”
He took a deep breath, rubbed his face with both hands, and finally lay down tiredly.
He stared blankly at the ceiling.
After some time, Su Zeheng finally picked up his phone, typing intermittently.
[Sorry. Actually, I really like you, the kind of like a man has for a woman. Although I know it’s a bit ridiculous to say this now, but…]
After a few seconds of silence, he deleted everything.
[Sorry. But I hope you won’t lose heart because of this. You deserve a better life. You can hate me, but don’t give up on yourself, because…]
He deleted it again and fell silent once more.
After another half hour, he ultimately only sent four simple words.
…
Ding!
After returning from the Recycling Station, Wen Han waited at home.
She continued to live leisurely, as if nothing had changed.
Until her phone rang, her eyes instantly sharpened.
“… I like you?”
Muttering the four words on the message, Wen Han blinked in surprise.
A moment later, she suddenly smiled: “Sure enough, a pure-hearted uncle. Is this a good time for a confession?”
But…
Her eyes suddenly focused on those four words, and she sighed after a moment.
“I thought you wouldn’t contact me anymore. If you insist on finding trouble… then don’t blame me.”
…
Ding!
“It’s Wen Han?!!!”
The instant the phone vibrated, Su Zeheng, who was drowsy, suddenly woke up.
He immediately opened the phone and scanned the screen anxiously.
[Meet me at 777 Coffee Shop at 7 PM the day after tomorrow.]
Su Zeheng was still somewhat dazed, and Wen Han called again.
[Only half an hour, and it’ll be our last meeting.]
“Last meeting? The day after tomorrow…”
Su Zeheng muttered to himself, but his eyes gradually revealed a glimmer of light.
“She wants to meet me?… At least she wants to meet me!”
Does she want to accept the apology? Or…
Uncertainty always brings both anticipation and fear.
He clenched the phone tightly, tossing and turning, unable to sleep all night.
…
“How many months has it been?”
After turning off the phone, Wen Han flipped open the calendar.
“Since I met the uncle, almost half a year… indeed a troublesome character.”
After spending half a year, she finally succeeded in manipulating this righteous hero.
He was light itself, yet controlled by darkness.
“Uncle, you lost fairly.”
She was not just a twenty-one-year-old girl; her actual age was well over thirty.
Moreover… everyone was her defeated opponent.
Su Zeheng is, Lin Wuju is, An Lisi will be!
Silently marking today on the calendar as a reminder, but in a moment, Wen Han quickly scratched it out.
“It’s not over yet.”
She turned back to her seat.
Not meeting tomorrow was because Lin Wuju’s plan needed more preparation time.
In addition, giving Su Zeheng hope today meant he would be even more restless and unable to focus on work until they met.
“How painful~”
A sinister smile appeared on the Little Witch’s face.
“The purity guarded for twenty-seven years was completely destroyed within a few days!”
Uncle, let me be your pure world’s first villain.
Snap!
Her slender fingers came together as she clenched them.
In the next moment, Xiao Yuan’s shout echoed in the house.
Wen Han instantly raised her gaze, the dark fire in her eyes disappeared, and she hurriedly rushed into the bedroom.
…
The next day, Wen Han ate and drank as usual.
Nothing could change her mood.
Whether happy or unhappy, she never let yesterday’s events affect today’s mood.
On the other side, Su Zeheng was extremely anxious.
He often stared at the time, as if hoping it would flow faster.
He opened his phone repeatedly, but he knew he couldn’t disturb the other party now, or it would cause displeasure and anger.
Star River City suddenly fell into a rare peace and tranquility.
The Recycling Station didn’t target anyone, the Monster Alliance vanished, and the Light Magic Society operated orderly.
Like the calm before the storm, time ticked away.
The next day, at 6:20 PM.
Slowly walking out of the office, Su Zeheng looked at the text message from two days ago again.
“The time is almost here, it’s time to go.”
He muttered to himself, started the car, and looked straight ahead.
