He immediately chased after her, but Luo Langyue grabbed onto his clothes, frowning.

“Hold on, what are you doing? Don’t you want revenge? How can you still feel like continuing your dog-blood drama? Didn’t you say you wanted to make Bai Weiwei suffer? Why does it look like you’re the one suffering more?”

Xu Menggui’s footsteps paused. He looked at Luo Langyue with sullen eyes.

Luo Langyue immediately let go, silently retreating.

What a terrifying expression. Why does it look like he wanted to eat someone?

Bai Weiwei fled from the company as though she were flying. Only then did her expression restore its calm. “How was my performance just now?”

System: “I was stunned by the splash of dog blood.”

Bai Weiwei: “It would have been better if there was a downpour, to better portray my tragic emotions.”

Just as she said that, ruuumble.

The sky was covered by dark clouds, and rain fell heavily.

Bai Weiwei stood in the rain, her “mmp[1]” face being splashed.

She silently stretched up to wipe the rain off her face. The raindrops hitting her face hurt her skin.

The rain came just as she said. If it weren’t for the fact that she knew the stingy system would rather buy instant noodles than spend it on her.

She would have thought it was the system’s doing.

Bai Weiwei said, “Now I’ll run wildly in the rain, climax into a beautifully lonely and romantic crying scene, then faint with a fever. Then I’ll be rescued by Xu Menggui. Then I’ll portray a “love is not over” scene or something, and the favorability will rise.”

System: “Wouldn’t this ‘love is not over’ scene be too cliche?”

The father was framed and collapsed, the company was sold, and he was forgiven with just a fever.

This plot was too overused.

Bai Weiwei: “That’s right, it’s cliche, but I’m willing.”

Either way, it was fine if the favorability rose.

System: “…”

It was in the wrong for forgetting the host’s shameless disposition.

System: “The male lead is coming.”

Bai Weiwei promptly changed her expression. Her face looked pale, and she stood haggardly and blankly in the rain.

Her thin body being beaten by the heavy downpour.

It was as though she’d fall in the next second.

Xu Menggui grabbed an umbrella from the company entrance and rushed out into the rain without opening it.

But before he reached her, his mind was cleared up by the rain.

He stopped, looking blankly at Bai Weiwei.

The company had been bought by him, the Bai family had been seized by him. Bai Qingshui had collapsed and was in the hospital.

And Bai Weiwei was also about to fall apart.

He had retaliated to this extent, but his heart was still empty, without any feeling of happiness.

Was his revenge not ruthless enough?

Bai Weiwei suddenly staggered forward two steps, and her entire body fell forward.

Xu Menggui barely thought of anything before he’d already rushed forward to grab her by the waist and carry her in his arms.

Bai Weiwei blinked. It wasn’t clear whether the water in her eyes were tears or raindrops.

When she saw Xu Menggui, her face went pale, and she began to struggle. “Let go, what do you want? Do I need to be forced to death for you to be satisfied?”

Xu Menggui went silent, not knowing what to say.

Was he going to continue to strike back against her, or did he want to do something else?

It was the first time he was so hesitant and indecisive about something.

Bai Weiwei wasn’t interested in his nonsense. She threw off his hand and walked. Before she could even take a few steps, her entire body fell to the ground.

Xu Menggui’s expression changed drastically. He rushed forward and picked her up.

He found that her entire body was scalding, and her limbs were trembling.

Xu Menggui picked her up to take her to the company parking lot and drove her home.

Bai Weiwei was uncomfortable from the fever, but things were proceeding well. She said leisurely to the system: “As expected, taking a cold water bath in advance is effective.”

[1]mmp = it’s a chinese slang curse, like ‘m*therf*cker’. Basically in this scene, she has a ‘wtf’ face on
