I’m Really Not Trying to Be Chased by the Heroine as the Villainous Playboy! – Chapter 294

Chapter 147: The Scumbag

“Amy, something feels off.”

“Yeah, we might need to help them out.”

Girls’ hearts are always delicate.

Nia’s two friends spotted the visibly awkward atmosphere between Roy and Nia from a distance and felt a wave of concern.

Janie bit her nails anxiously, “What if Nia gets dumped by Roy…?”

But the mature Amy quickly revealed the truth, “No, look, they’re still holding hands. It just seems to be a minor issue.”

“They just need a little help.”

The two exchanged a knowing glance and stealthily snuck around to Nia’s side.

————————

Seeing the elven girl looking as gloomy as a cloud, like a salted fish that had lost its dream, Roy frowned, sensing that something was wrong.

On the evening of the final banquet, Nia had compromised, implying she was somewhat open to the idea of the three of them being together.

After all, if she truly didn’t want to embrace this kind of relationship, she wouldn’t have spoken up for herself just now.

What’s this “that kind of thing”?

He had merely gone to see Charlotte yesterday; with Nia’s personality, she would either get mad and tease him or go confront Charlotte. Why was she now looking hopeless?

“Just to clarify, nothing happened between Charlotte and me.”

Nia suddenly looked up, eyes brimming with tears, glaring at him, “Liar. You spent the night at her place! You promised we were all equally important… yet you went and did that with her first!”

“That kind of thing?” Roy was baffled.

The girl lowered her head, mumbling, “You know, the kind of thing of having babies.”

As she spoke, Nia’s face turned a deep shade of red, glaring angrily at him as if Roy had forced her into an utterly humiliating act.

Roy almost choked on his blood upon hearing that.

Who the heck spread that rumor?!

No wonder she was in such a bad mood! This misunderstanding was way blown out of proportion!

“Wait, wait, we didn’t do anything!”

“But the whole school is going crazy spreading this rumor!”

“Rumors aren’t trustworthy! They also say I’m a scumbag!”

“I think you are a scumbag!”

Nia spat in anger and turned her head away.

But in less than three seconds, she turned back, squinting skeptically, “You really didn’t do anything?”

“Really didn’t!”

“With such a beautiful girl in bed, you mean nothing happened?”

Recalling that passionate kiss from the previous night, Roy tightened his collar a little, sounding unsure, “Well, we didn’t do what you think we did.”

“… You aren’t, you know, not good at it, are you?”

“Why are you saying such stupid things?” Roy stared at the elven girl, insisting, “First of all, I wasn’t indifferent.”

Nia’s cheeks puffed up at that.

“But we didn’t do anything because you were there,” Roy smiled slightly, “I already said I’d treat you both equally; how could I sneak off to do that kind of thing behind your back?”

Upon hearing this, the cheeks that were puffed like a squirrel’s deflated instantly, Nia’s face flushed crimson, and her eyes warmed again.

If Roy truly was indifferent towards such a little beauty, then he was either lying, or she would start to doubt if he had any issues.

Having thought this through, Nia finally softened her expression.

She reached out and pinched Roy’s face, regaining her light-hearted tone, teasingly saying, “Smooth talker!”

Seeing this, Roy finally let out a relieved breath.

But as a man, it was impossible not to have thoughts about that aspect.

The current tension between the three made it inappropriate to cross that line. But what would happen if they really got to that point in the future? Should the first time be just the two of them…? Ugh, he couldn’t even tell if he could handle it.

Just as Roy was lost in his daydream, he heard Nia’s tone turn cold again.

“But you still went to find your princess last night, didn’t you?”

Roy stiffened, speechless.

So she was still angry?!

Under the cold gaze of the girl, Roy couldn’t help but feel a little anxious.

But in the next second, Nia broke into a smile, as if she was enjoying an intriguing performance.

“Just kidding, I’m not that serious.”

“As long as you didn’t do that.”

“But as far as scumbags go, you’re actually kind of cute,” Nia teased while resting her chin on her hand.

“What scumbag? I’m clearly pure love,” Roy muttered under his breath.

“Clearly a heartbreaker!” Nia reached out and pinched his face hard, grinning mischievously, “Only I would—”

Before she could finish, two figures suddenly appeared behind Nia.

Roy didn’t have time to warn her before the two girls gave her a shove, causing the elven girl to stumble right into his arms.

Her two friends acted as if they had just performed some heroic feat, waving their arms excitedly.

To Roy, they really were heroes.

Why let such a caught duck go?

Wrapping an arm around that delicate waist which felt like silk, he noticed the once talkative elven girl now quieted in his embrace.

“Only you would?” Roy raised an eyebrow and deliberately blew gently against her soft ear.

Feeling the boy’s solid body and slightly warm breath, the elven girl lost her earlier composure, her ears turned crimson, trembling like fine willows in the wind.

“Only, only would…”

Not daring to look up, Nia turned back and glared fiercely at her two attackers.

“Oh dear, in broad daylight, and you two are getting all cozy?” Janie covered her mouth, giggling oddly.

“Who’s to blame for this?!”

Seeing the girl’s expression of grievance, Roy couldn’t help but laugh, thinking that this girl really was just all talk, still a shy and pure maiden at heart.

But then, he felt the little hand pressing against his chest exploring restlessly, and his expression turned weird.

Wait, with Nia’s extraordinary senses, how could she not notice someone approaching from behind?

This girl was definitely doing it on purpose!

“Don’t be mad, don’t be mad! Just bringing you some drinks,” Amy came out with two cups of honey wine.

“Alright, alright, we won’t disturb your little world.”

After giving the drinks to the two, the girls didn’t linger even a moment, leaving Nia no chance to complain.

Roy glanced at the table nearby that hadn’t started serving food yet, then shook his cup at Nia, “This is a rare opportunity; we still have some time before the banquet officially starts. Let’s chat alone?”

After a moment of silence, Nia nodded, “Let’s go.”

Roy and Nia found a corner at the outdoor dining table where a semi-open Private Room wrapped in flowers and foliage awaited them.

With the fragrance of blossoms around and the night sky overhead, the distant giggles of girls gradually faded away, leaving only the sound of their own breaths echoing in their little world.
