Su Mingyuan remembered his last passing performance evaluation.

At that time, just like today, although there was a plot twist due to the appearance of his sister and Hongxue, which made Xiao Ran slap himself in the face, Su Mingyuan had successfully acted out a few scenes in front of him.

Perhaps that was why the System gave him a passing grade.

But, Su Mingyuan felt that there must be more to it than that.

Last time, at the investment meeting for Liu Mengning’s movie, he also successfully acted out a few scenes, but he still ended up with a failing grade.

Su Mingyuan keenly sensed a variable between passing and failing performances.

That was, he didn’t bring Ruoruo with him in the performances where he received passing grades.

Discovering this fact shocked him and made him a little bit incredulous.

Could it be related to…Ruoruo?

“I passed without her but failed every time I brought her?” Su Mingyuan couldn’t believe it. “No… it can’t be.”

If Ruoruo was Xiao Ran’s undercover agent, her mere existence was a huge insult to him.

It didn’t make sense that her presence would lead to his passing, especially if she had betrayed Xiao Ran by falling in love with him.

She couldn’t change her heart then, fall in love with me, and betray Xiao Ran, which caused the opposite effect.

Su Mingyuan didn’t want to believe that Ruoruo was the cause of his failure. He had not ultimately won her over, and he couldn’t be sure that she would be willing to betray Xiao Ran for him.

Perhaps another variable contributed to his failure. Su Mingyuan couldn’t think of anything else, and Ruoruo was the only obvious variable he could see. He couldn’t ignore the possibility that bringing her to his performances might lower his score.

What made him even more anxious was that his next performance would involve a scene with Ruoruo. He had thought he had a sure win, but if his suspicions were true…

It would mean disaster.

Is it over?

Wait a minute!

Maybe not!

Sweat dripped from Su Mingyuan’s forehead as his mind raced.

This was just a conjecture.

And even if Ruoruo had feelings for him and was willing to betray Xiao Ran for him, his mission was to play a villain, restore the plot of the original novel, and let Xiao Ran successfully show off.

And who cared about what happened outside of the plot?

Therefore, as long as Ruoruo behaves the same as in the original novel during the plot, there should be no problem.

The key to the previous failures was that Ruoruo did not appear in those plot performances in the first place.

He thought he could improve his performance by bringing Ruoruo with him, but he was digging his own grave!

Thinking about it, even if Ruoruo became Xiao Ran’s undercover agent, and even if the villain was impotent, could the reader still enjoy the scene when they see a scene where the hero’s sister serves as a secretary, pours tea and water for the villain and give him massages…?

Even if the reader knows that she is an undercover agent and the villain is impotent, would they still find pleasure in reading such a scene?

Moreover, even if Su Mingyuan succeeded in making Xiao Ran look like a fool, the circumstances that led to his failure were too many to count!

With all these factors combined, wouldn’t readers be angry and leave negative reviews?

If readers were giving negative reviews, it was only natural for Su Mingyuan to get a failing grade for his performance.

Understood!

Su Mingyuan raised his perspective to a macro level, and suddenly, he understood everything. His behavior of bringing Ruoruo onto the stage was presumptuous and arrogant, regardless of whether she was a real or fake spy.

He dug his grave by thinking he could create a more exciting “slap in the face” scene than the original novel.

In the future, he must not bring Ruoruo or anyone else who might interfere with the original plotline. He must strive to reproduce the plot according to the original novel perfectly and never allow other female leads to enter the story.

Especially his older sister!

Come to think of it, she had messed up several of his performances in secret!

Su Mingyuan felt a surge of frustration in his heart.

Although he was angry, he couldn’t vent his emotions. After all, Su Xuelan was doing everything for his good.

But, Su Mingyuan felt it was time to have a good talk with his sister, who constantly interfered with his affairs and ruined his plans, thinking she was helping him.

This feeling was not good!

He returned home with Jiang Hua and arranged his deployment. He finally released Li Cheng, allowing him to study and exercise under Su Li for a while.

Later, he promoted Li Cheng, Xiao Ran’s undercover agent, as his confidant, which facilitated his poisonous scheme.

This guy could inform Xiao Ran in time, use the information to counter him, and then show off.

Then, he went straight to find his sister, Su Xuelan.

Although they had not appropriately spoken or acted intimately as siblings for several days due to the recent incident, Su Mingyuan felt it was time to clarify this matter with his sister.

Meanwhile, Su Xuelan sipped her tea in the office and relaxed after receiving news from Murong Hongxue. Although she hadn’t been intimate with Mingyuan for several days, she had been paying attention to his every performance.

Knowing that the result of this incident was just as she expected, that scoundrel Xiao Ran not only failed to gain any advantage or show off but also left in a hurry.

The gloomy mood that had been present for some time finally cleared up a bit.

Su Xuelan realised that she had acted too impulsively and scared Mingyuan on that day. So, she had been patient and suppressed the flames in her heart, trying to use this kind of silent care and help to gradually make Mingyuan feel her warmth and sincerity, and be moved by her concern and tenderness.

She had also secretly helped Mingyuan vent his anger. She believed that after he knew that Jiang Hua was sent by her to help him, he would feel closer to her. Maybe he would forgive her for her impetuousness and take the initiative to reconcile with her.

Mingyuan did come to her, but his purpose completely differed from what she expected.

“Mingyuan?”

When she greeted him with a smile, her charming face made the golden sunlight look dull. But Mingyuan didn’t show any happy expression, and his beautiful black eyes showed a hint of resentment instead of joy.

Su Xuelan’s heart sank, and her smile faded.

“Jiang Hua was sent by you to help me, right?”
