Chapter 443: You Wouldn’T Happen To Be A Lolicon, Would You?
Either go back and inherit the family fortune, or find a girlfriend to date first as an excuse to avoid inheriting the family fortune.
Dongfang Yang's words, and the resolute look in his eyes, made it clear that the either/or choice he was presenting to Chi Xiaocheng meant exactly that.
This time, it was Chi Xiaocheng's turn to be dumbfounded.
Why does it feel so strange when you bring up this question so directly to me?
Could it be that Dongfang Yang actually likes me?
After interacting with Dongfang Yang for so long, this was the first time Chi Xiaocheng had such a bizarre thought. In her mind, Dongfang Yang, the male lead, should only like Su Tao.
But now… instead of looking for Su Tao, he's coming to me?
Chi Xiaocheng didn't dare answer, and Dongfang Yang continued on his own, "Actually, there's another reason that's not really a reason. You might not know, but a very powerful young miss from the capital is about to return."
Hearing this, Chi Xiaocheng sat up straight.
Dongfang Yang said, "As the representative of the younger generation of the Dongfang family, if this young miss comes back, the family will definitely want me to go and get acquainted."
Chi Xiaocheng raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, "Will there be talk of arranged marriages?"
"Definitely," Dongfang Yang sighed helplessly. "But it might not be me, and I have no interest whatsoever. The family is pulling me back to train me for future leadership roles, partly because of this young miss's return."
Hearing this, Chi Xiaocheng immediately remembered that this plot point seemed to have happened in the original story.
Except the timeline was shifted much later.
A wealthy, parachuting female supporting character was about to return to the country, and the male leads in the original story all had different responses.
Ye Liang began to consider which brought more benefits, Su Tao or the parachuting female lead. The arrival of this female lead was also when he started to distance himself from Su Tao.
Si Chen was straightforward. After reclaiming his position as the heir of the Si family in the capital, he was summoned back to Beijing like Dongfang Yang. Family constraints forced them to face this young miss.
As for Chu Lingfeng, he was already famous in the capital when the young miss appeared. Wanting to climb even higher, he naturally gravitated towards her beauty.
And Xiao Ming was still biding his time.
In the original story, when Dongfang Yang faced this situation, the plot progressed as it was now. He wanted to find a girlfriend to appease the situation.
Except, the target was different.
In the original story, Dongfang Yang asked Su Tao.
But now…
Chi Xiaocheng looked at herself in the rearview mirror, already sitting in the passenger seat of this supercar, facing Dongfang Yang's sincere gaze, and was momentarily silent.
Could it be that because of the butterfly effect, she had replaced Tao Tao in Dongfang Yang's life?
Or was the hand of the world's will beginning to exert itself?
[Actually, this situation is quite normal,] the system said, attracting Chi Xiaocheng's attention.
[Now that the host is no longer that cannon fodder villain, when we choose to no longer hide ourselves, the host has become a protagonist whose importance is no less than Su Tao's.]
[Plus, Su Tao has almost become a yandere after your…adjustments. Dongfang Yang probably realized that Su Tao might not agree to help, so he turned to you.]
After the system's reminder, Chi Xiaocheng finally realized.
There was also another small possibility.
She, Chi Xiaocheng, was qualified for the title of "girlfriend" in terms of appearance.
She was a top-tier beautiful girl no less than Su Tao.
Thinking of this, Chi Xiaocheng couldn't help but take another look at Dongfang Yang. "Dongfang Yang, can I ask you a question?"
Dongfang Yang seemed to anticipate what kind of question Chi Xiaocheng was going to ask. The car stopped at a red light, and his expression suddenly became serious.
"Ask away."
Chi Xiaocheng pondered for three seconds. "You wouldn't happen to be… a lolicon, would you?"
Dongfang Yang: "…"
Chi Xiaocheng: "…"
The two stared at each other, the air seemingly frozen for a moment.
Dongfang Yang was also silent for a long time. "To be honest, looking at this question from the perspective of a normal man thinking about adults, I still think you're a little short and a little flat."
"This has nothing to do with being a lolicon. I feel like only this young master, who is so open-minded, would think you're kind of cute like this."
Chi Xiaocheng: "¿"
She reached out and started unfastening her seatbelt.
Dongfang Yang quickly interrupted. "Wait, why are you unfastening your seatbelt!"
"While the red light is still on, don't lock the car doors. I want to get out."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute! Although this young master said that, I didn't say I didn't like you!"
Chi Xiaocheng glared at Dongfang Yang. "So, you wouldn't happen to want to confess to me and then ask me to be your girlfriend, would you?"
Dongfang Yang: "I…"
"Rejected."
Chi Xiaocheng rejected him directly before Dongfang Yang could speak.
She would only ever like Tao Tao.
The unceremonious rejection left Dongfang Yang speechless for a moment, but he really didn't have any intention of confessing directly.
Still, the premature defeat made the young master feel a little disheartened.
Chi Xiaocheng should like me quite a bit. Although I didn't really confess, she didn't need to reject me so quickly, right?
Could it be that her affection isn't high enough?
Without thinking too much, Dongfang Yang blurted out his true thoughts. "I'm not asking you to be my girlfriend. I mean, would you cooperate with me and act out a play to appease the elders who come to inspect me, so I don't have to go back to the capital?"
"And so I don't have to face that so-called young miss."
Dongfang Yang's words made Chi Xiaocheng fall into deep thought.
In the original story, it was indeed because of the young miss's return that Dongfang Yang returned to the capital. Afterwards, the plot began to dilute him, slowly separating him from Su Tao.
Even if he only returned to Jiuzhou City, it was only in passing.
In the end, because of family constraints, he had to part ways with Su Tao.
If Dongfang Yang went back, under the push of the world's will, he might really be bound by the original plot.
If I agree, Tao Tao will explode, right?
Chi Xiaocheng turned to face Dongfang Yang and asked, "Can't you find someone else? Why do you have to find me? I'm just an ordinary girl. Even if I face your elders, I won't catch their eye, will I?"
Even if Chi Xiaocheng's acting was good, she hadn't experienced the life of the true upper class.
She couldn't act out the noble aura that came from the bone.
Dongfang Yang stroked his chin and thought. "No, Chi Xiaocheng, you have characteristics that those aristocratic young misses don't have: the innocence and kindness that only ordinary people have."
"You're so cute, your looks are up to par, and you easily make people want to protect you. Most importantly, you're simple. I feel like this last point will be easy to pass."
Simplicity meant that if they got married in the future, she wouldn't overly influence her partner's career, and there wouldn't be a series of upsetting events due to family property.
For such large families, women could be vases, but they couldn't have too many schemes.
Dongfang Yang looked at Chi Xiaocheng and took another breath. "So, Chi Xiaocheng, can you help me with this favor?"
