Chapter 9 Harvesting Emotion Points!

Leaning back in his chair, Dongfang Yang stared straight ahead, his index finger tapping rhythmically on the table, keeping time with his bouncing leg.

The petite, pigtail-wearing girl before him kept her eyes downcast, head bowed, her hands nervously clutching a corner of her skirt.

Reason told him that Chi Xiaocheng was faking it.

And badly acting!

Yet his intuition told him that the acting wasn't that bad. He had only seen such a drastic change in demeanor in some veteran actors in the entertainment industry.

Besides, her slightly haggard, cute little face made it hard to suspect the worst.

Did removing her makeup really change her so much?

He hadn't noticed before, but the girl was actually quite pleasant when she was being well-behaved.

Even he hadn't realized it, but his original aversion to Chi Xiaocheng had diminished quite a bit at this moment.

He pointed to the seat opposite him and said in a low voice, "Sit down."

Chi Xiaocheng nodded timidly, smoothed her skirt, and moved to the seat.

Today, her persona was that of a timid and shy sweetheart.

Makeup was just her protective shell.

The increase in emotion points in her mind hadn't stopped. Although it was only two or three points, not as much as before, Chi Xiaocheng knew.

Dongfang Yang was being influenced by her.

She acted like a flustered little white rabbit, restless and uneasy. After a moment, she decided to take the initiative and lowered her head to Dongfang Yang. "Young Master Dongfang, please... please scold me!"

Dongfang Yang chuckled, looking at Chi Xiaocheng with his cheek resting on his hand. "Why should I scold you?"

"Because... because I kept bothering you before and caused you trouble. I'm here to apologize, so you can scold me however you want!"

Dongfang Yang raised an eyebrow. "Really, however I want?"

Chi Xiaocheng raised one eye and looked at him worriedly. "Can... can you be gentle?"

Heh, an interesting woman.

Honestly, Dongfang Yang couldn't tell if Chi Xiaocheng was acting, but in his understanding, the change in her was too drastic.

He simply asked directly, "You said Su Tao enlightened you in the basement, so you sincerely repented. I even feel like you're a different person. Tell me, how did Su Tao persuade you?"

Chi Xiaocheng nodded timidly. "Actually, I kidnapped Su Tao... well, maybe not kidnapped, but I locked her in the basement, mainly to warn her to stay away from you."

"Young Master Dongfang, you understand, Su Tao is very sensible and gentle. Even though I threatened her, she wasn't angry. Instead, she told me that I was just being manipulated by Xiu Hua and the others."

"Xiu Hua?" Dongfang Yang interjected curiously.

Chi Xiaocheng quickly shifted the blame to the person she had already prepared, "She's a friend of mine. She taught me how to do my makeup and how to target Su Tao. She said that both you, Young Master Dongfang, and Young Master Ye Liang, actually liked me from the beginning, but Su Tao stole you away."

"So... so..."

Chi Xiaocheng didn't continue, lowering her head in shame.

Dongfang Yang followed up on the suspense Chi Xiaocheng left, "So you actually believed that?"

"Yes." Chi Xiaocheng quickly explained, "But in the basement, Su Tao explained everything to me little by little. She was like the moonlight, shining on me and dispelling the darkness. I... I actually did such terrible things to her before!"

"I'm not even human!"

Chi Xiaocheng looked like she was about to slap herself.

Then she went on and on, praising Su Tao endlessly.

Dongfang Yang enjoyed it.

Because he also thought Su Tao was perfect. Chi Xiaocheng's words were exactly what he wanted to hear.

Resonance occurred, and he subconsciously believed the little loli a little more.

But the words that came out of his mouth were still disdainful, "You really are incredibly stupid."

"I'm... I'm sorry!"

"Raise your head."

Hearing that commanding voice, Chi Xiaocheng raised her little head high again, but her eyes darted around uneasily.

Her delicate little face was fully displayed in front of Dongfang Yang.

Although this young master had seen countless beauties, he thought the current Chi Xiaocheng with her pure bare face was quite attractive.

However, she still couldn't compare to Su Tao!

He added in his heart and said to Chi Xiaocheng, "I'll believe you for now, but if I find out you're lying to me, you're dead!"

"No... no, I won't!" Chi Xiaocheng seemed very flustered. "I know I'm not worthy of Young Master Dongfang. I won't bother you anymore!"

"Okay."

Dongfang Yang nodded deeply and asked about the specific events that happened in the basement before preparing to send Chi Xiaocheng away.

But he saw the little loli twisting and turning as if she had something to say.

He asked, "Is there anything else?"

Chi Xiaocheng nodded lightly, took out her phone, and opened her Moments.

It was the post where she posted a photo of her bare face.

She said to Dongfang Yang with a very serious face, "That, this photo, is my bare face!"

The corner of Dongfang Yang's mouth twitched.

A little over an hour ago, he replied to the photo that if it wasn't photoshopped, he would eat three kilos of shit.

Was she looking for a fight?

Just as he was about to curse, Dongfang Yang noticed that his reply on the post was gone.

Did she delete it first?

That was quite considerate.

He touched his nose and didn't say anything more.

Chi Xiaocheng, after beautifully harvesting the last wave of emotion points, hurriedly left the coffee shop.

From beginning to end, she maintained a cute persona.

It wasn't until her petite figure disappeared at the end of the road that Dongfang Yang snorted softly, "Acting like a fool."

Recovering his thoughts, he snapped his fingers again.

A black-clad man drinking coffee at another table respectfully stood up and asked, "Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Investigate the relationship between Chi Xiaocheng and that Xiu Hua. You heard what she just said, right? See how many lies she told."

"Yes, Young Master."

Chi Xiaocheng, completely unaware that what she said would be investigated, walked out of the school gate with a happy face. "System, how many emotion points did I get this time?"

[During this period, Dongfang Yang provided the host with 214 emotion points.]

[Female lead Su Tao provided the host with 32 emotion points.]

[The host now has a total of 271 emotion points.]

"Very good, purchase the contents of chapters 100-120 from the novel!"

These chapters were the content of her cannon fodder female supporting role going offline, but according to the normal routine in novels, when one villain goes offline, another villain must go online to pave the way.

Conflict and tension are the biggest triggers for emotion in novels.

Only with these can the protagonist actively or passively carry out events.

Chi Xiaocheng needed a way to approach Su Tao secretly in order to complete her plan.

The content of the novel merged into her mind, and Chi Xiaocheng stood at the school gate, her eyes gradually becoming joyful.

In these twenty chapters, the first ten chapters described the scene where the original owner, Chi Xiaocheng, scratched Su Tao's face, punctured her breasts, and was killed by Ye Liang.

And the last ten chapters...
