Chapter 870

This sentence should be enough to test it out.

"... Hum!"

"Boom!"

Just as Xu Chen had expected.

The instant Xu Chen finished speaking.

Zhao Luoran, who had just calmed down a little.

That restrained, violent aura was unleashed once more.

Her fighting intent surged as she said coldly, "You seem to like them a lot, don't you."

Xu Chen held his forehead.

Damn!

If he still couldn't pick up on it now.

Then he'd be unworthy of being a scumbag.

No—unworthy of being a professional in the Way of the Scamming Emperor.

Damn it, he really wasn't this narcissistic at the start.

Really, he just thought Zhao Luoran was normal.

She couldn't possibly take one look at him and fall for him, right?

That would be way too absurd.

He felt it was impossible too.

So he never even thought in that direction.

But who would've known, this girl actually seemed genuinely interested in him.

Just now, was she going crazy with jealousy?

Holy shit, that's just freaking absurd.

He's completely dumbfounded right now.

Accept her?

After thinking it over, Xu Chen immediately shook his head.

Accept my ass.

He has zero feelings for the female lead right now.

He could kick her flying and never have her come back.

Save her from being in the way of his business every single day.

But precisely because he can't kick her away, it seems even more troublesome.

For a moment, his face was full of that egg-aching expression.

Damn it, are all these female leads mentally ill?

Why the hell do they have to like him day after day?

Can't they like someone else?

Does he, Xu Chen, have to keep saying, "All you female leads, get lost"?

Can't they just act normal?

As a villain, it's hard, alright?

After thinking this, Xu Chen looked at the even angrier Zhao Luoran.

He felt it was time to say something.

If he didn't say anything.

The situation later.

Would probably spiral out of control.

But, what should he say... and then.

"You seem to like them a lot, don't you."

At this moment, facing Zhao Luoran's questioning words.

Xu Chen's face was full of that egg-aching expression.

If Zhao Luoran weren't the female lead.

Then there wouldn't be any problem at all.

He'd just kill her directly and be done with it.

But if she is the female lead, then he can't touch her.

If the female lead falls.

Without a doubt, the world would immediately collapse.

The kind that collapses completely.

After all, the dog author set up the female lead to never die.

If he killed her.

Wouldn't that be a hundred percent collapse?

The kind where the world collapses, not just the plot.

If the world collapses, then this world is completely gone.

Then how the hell is he supposed to complete the plot?

After thinking this, Xu Chen looked at Zhao Luoran:

"Senior, we are only friends.

Beyond that, there is no relationship whatsoever.

It is they who insisted on following me.

Is that explanation clear enough?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he bared his teeth in a grin.

Damn it, still have to explain.

You Zhao Luoran aren't the female lead, are you?

He threw a punch straight at her.

Zhao Qinglian and Zhao Fengwu pursed their lips upon hearing this.

Xu Chen's words were not wrong.

So at this moment they did not speak arrogantly either.

Especially Zhao Qinglian—she held herself back.

She did not want to cause trouble for Xu Chen.

At the same time, she did not want to break the rules of the Third Pass.

Because according to the rules,

this place was under Zhao Luoran's charge.

She had no right to say anything.

Otherwise, given her temperament,

she would have surely fought Zhao Luoran on the spot.

Xu Chen continued:

"Could it be that I no longer even have the right to befriend people of the Zhao Family?

If Senior does not permit it, then there's nothing I can do.

You persuade them—that is not something I can change."

Now Xu Chen did not waste words.

Whatever you Zhao Luoran say goes.

As long as he gets past the Third Pass, that's fine.

Right? There's no need to argue with her.
