Chapter 1956: After the Rewind, Love You Again 32
Ruan Fu lifted her gaze, locking onto Jin Chen, shadows appearing beneath her long lashes, "If I just kill him, will you not leave?"
In this world, there can only be one Jin Chen.
Jin Chen nodded: "That's right."
"But I wasn't going to leave anyway; you're still here."
I don't know how that person came about; I hope nothing strange shows up in the small world.
Fingertips slipped through the shirt, gently stroking the strong-sensation scar on Ruan Fu's chest, Jin Chen a bit angry: "You need to stab him a few more times."
By the way, add my rewind share as well.
Ruan Fu's mood inexplicably improved a lot; she took the initiative to kiss Jin Chen, "I will kill him."
No matter the reason, that person is surely to die.
【Detected that the villain Cheng Chuan's Blackening Value fluctuates wildly, please pay attention, Host!】
【Detected that the villain Ruan Fu's Blackening Value fluctuates……】
……
Jin Chen only felt that rap was going on in his head.
【Are you crazy?】You just finished an upgrade not long ago.
Ling Gun Gun clung to a handkerchief, trembling, 【Host, I have some bad news for you.】
【Under the influence of world law, the protagonist's halo seems to have returned to the protagonist.】
Greatly affected Jin Chen expressed……【This is good news.】
【Block the Blackening Value reports of those few; it's annoying to listen to, tell me after they reset to zero.】
【Okay~】
——
Three days later, when protagonist Chen was taken away by bodyguards, his first reaction was to suspect Ruan Fu.
After all, although he personally saw Ruan Fu fall into the sea, he never actually saw a corpse.
So what Jin Chen and Ruan Fu were waiting for wasn't just protagonist Chen, but also Cheng Chuan and Yun Zaozao, who rushed over upon hearing the news.
"You… came to watch the show?" Jin Chen raised his brows in confusion.
These two aren't, right? With Blackening Values that high they should be killing, how are they being bewitched?
【You forgot the protagonist's halo, huh?】Ling Gun Gun nagged, 【It's best to let the protagonist die at the villain's hands—any will do—otherwise it will trigger a rewind, wasting your chance for nothing.】
Jin Chen felt it was hard to handle.
The villa's living room fell into silence for a moment, everyone's expression was wonderful.
Protagonist Chen couldn't believe Ruan Fu was really not dead, even getting mixed up with this impostor, feeling angry and fearful inside.
Angry that Ruan Fu used to be so aloof, saying they were dating yet maintaining stronger boundaries than anyone—even hesitating to hold hands—yet she was deeply affectionate toward this impostor.
Yun Zaozao witnessed this scene, the inner split and struggle grew heavier; clearly that day she saw the former Jin Chen only with killing intent, yet as time passed she just couldn't bring herself to strike.
Cheng Chuan was the same.
Only Jin Chen and Ruan Fu remained composed.
"Ruan Fu…" Protagonist Chen felt a bit wary, but thinking of what he'd done before, he still approached, his brows and eyes softening: "I'm the real Jin Chen, don't mistake the person."
"Besides, don't you remember how good I've been to you? How could I possibly kill you?"
Protagonist Chen took the opportunity to glance at the man who looked exactly like him, "Who's the killer? You need to tell them apart."
Jin Chen: "……"
Jin Chen: "You shameless bastard."
Ruan Fu's face grew dark, the glare she twisted onto Protagonist Chen's face becoming ever more gloomy, "Going by what you say, the person I should kill is him."
Protagonist Chen was doubtful, unable to hide his thoughts, "Of course, Ruan Fu, don't you believe what I say?"
Their gazes locked, just like every time Protagonist Chen previously deceived Ruan Fu—as long as he acted sincere enough, no suspicion would arise.
Toward anyone, Protagonist Chen does this.
Although his body was taken over, he was briefly questioned for a few days, but now he's clearly improved.
A few seconds later, Ruan Fu snorted, then turned her gaze to the other side of the sofa where Jin Chen sat, "What do you think?"
Jin Chen: "I suggest we kill him now."
If it weren't for Ling Gun Gun shouting that taking action also counts as triggering the rewind condition, they wouldn't have let Protagonist Chen come here alive.
Yun Zaozao suddenly asked: "How do you prove you're the real one?"
His tone was slightly lower, yet soft and gentle, no different from how he usually speaks to Jin Chen.
But the doubt in his heart was just as genuine.
Jin Chen spread his hands, his aura far surpassing Protagonist Chen's by an unknown multiple, "If only those who've done those bad deeds are real, then I'm fake."
"Yun Zaozao, the life and scientific faith you lost, Cheng Chuan's three years of freedom—none of those are fake."
Seeing Cheng Chuan and Yun Zaozao's expressions off, Protagonist Chen coldly interrupted: "That's all your doing! You impersonated my identity to do those things, and still want to drive me away."
Jin Chen felt his ears go numb, thinking this person, no matter how he came about, is no good.
"Wife, say something."
Jin Chen turned and wrapped his arms around Ruan Fu, applying some dangerous force, as if punishing his distraction and hesitation.
On the surface, his handsome face brimmed with extreme grievance, desperately needing someone to back him up.
Ruan Fu suddenly raised her hand to press on Jin Chen's arm, her tone extremely low, as if suppressing herself yet also coaxing, "Let him get lost first."
"Why?"
"Wasn't the plan to kill the protagonist?"
Because Ruan Fu discovered that after this person appeared, it seemed to invisibly alter her thoughts and actions, even shifting her hatred.
This is too weird.
Jin Chen, furious, kicked Protagonist Chen to the ground; as a fallback, he said, "We also have to lock him up."
Protagonist Chen's expression shifted in shock, "Ruan Fu! You're just looking at me……"
"Don't call me your wife."
Jin Chen clenched his throat, his aura suddenly turning icy and overbearing.
At this moment, even if they looked identical, no one would mistake them for each other.
"Someone come."
Ruan Fu's voice broke the stagnant atmosphere, laden with repression and bewilderment: "Lock this person up; if they try to run, break their legs."
Who exactly is this person? The bodyguards surrounding him in the Living Room knew full well; they covered Protagonist Chen's mouth and dragged him away.
Cheng Chuan and Yun instinctively tried to stop it early on, but the bodyguards prevented them and sent them out.
Jin Chen still held his anger inside, his back to Ruan Fu as he looked out the window at the garden; even his silhouette seemed sullen.
Even if he suspected that perhaps the protagonist's halo was at work, he was still angry.
Ruan Fu embraced him from behind, her fingertips tightening with a slight tremble of unease, "Are you angry?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Jin Chen retorted, pinching Ruan Fu's fingers irritably, "I'm not just angry, I'm also jealous."
"I also want to kill him." Ruan Fu's tone betrayed confusion; clearly she is usually introverted, yet she lays bare her inner thoughts too vividly.
"But when he appears, I just can't bring myself to act—how strange."
Jin Chen turned around, looked down at him, then reached up to ruffle his neat silver hair, "That's all."
"Of course."
Ruan Fu, a bit bristling, glared over, "I'm not so confused as to not know who I like."
Ruan Fu pursed her lips, tilted her head up to kiss the corner of Jin Chen's lips, acting coy in an exceedingly awkward way.
"Don't be angry."
