BXBX NOVEL Chapter 16 - Wrap It Up, Whatever Happens
That scene, well, he had completed it.
Confessing his feelings, getting rejected, then the male lead showing up to humiliate him—teaching him a lesson.
As for the male lead misunderstanding that Chen Fan had arranged for someone to beat him up, Chen Fan had no hesitation in taking the blame. After all, he was destined to be the long-lasting villain. For future developments, his involvement was essential. If the hatred wasn’t deep enough, Chen Fan wouldn’t be satisfied.
In the future, even if the protagonist tripped while walking, Chen Fan would proudly say, “Yep, that was me, I did it. No need to ask.”
The future storyline was actually quite interesting.
Later, Ye Aotian would truly get involved in Lin Qingyue’s company, occasionally inviting her out for dinner, and she would oblige.
When Lin Qingyue’s company faced problems, Ye Aotian would help by identifying the culprit, showcasing the male lead’s incredible skills. There would even be some plotlines involving bar fights and small-time gangsters.
Of course, Liu Chong’s situation was still ongoing.
At the hospital, after a thorough check-up, they found no major issues and left.
Once everyone was gone, Chen Fan opened his eyes, grabbed his phone, and happily started playing around.
This is the life after wrapping up a scene.
[Though it was a bit bumpy, I finally managed to confess.]
[Rejected, but I feel pretty good about it. Even though Lin Qingyue seemed a little off, being rejected is still a good thing.]
[That woman must be feeling heated lately. Her lips are so dry. Not as interesting as No. 88.]
[Now, it’s time for the male lead to shine, no matter how you look at it.]
[Oh right, after Liu Chong’s situation is resolved, Li Long’s son will meet the protagonist at a bar.]
[Coincidentally, Lin Qingyue will also be there. Why she goes to a bar alone late at night is anyone’s guess—probably the author’s deliberate setup.]
[Ye Aotian thinks I arranged for someone to beat him up. Great! Keep misunderstanding me. Even though I didn’t do it, I’ll take the blame. If your toilet gets clogged, that’s on me too. Just blame everything on me.]
After writing all that, Chen Fan contentedly went back to watching videos.
This was life.
Meanwhile, Jin Lan, sitting in her office, put down her phone, her lips curving into a smile. Jin Lan had her sources, so she knew a little bit about the situation. Ye Aotian’s injury was serious; that punch probably fractured his own fist.
As for Chen Fan’s performance, well, it was a bit lacking—he went flying too easily.
Who has that kind of strength? If Ye Aotian was that strong, Chen Fan’s chest would have caved in. But still, it was an impressive performance overall.
That morning, Jin Lan had already arranged for people to scout out a property for her, mainly to bring her live updates.
At that moment, No. 7, who hadn’t taken a break, was lying on the sofa, putting down her chips. Even with a face mask on, she couldn’t hide her smile.
“Hahaha, this is killing me, I can’t stop laughing. Chen Fan is having such a hard time. Poor guy. By the way, when am I going to appear? I’m starting to look forward to it. I wonder if I’ll have any scenes with Chen Fan. If not, that would be such a disappointment. If Lin Qingyue knew all this, would she still go to the bar? I’m curious to see how that plays out.”
Lin Qingyue, who had returned to her office, looked at the updated diary and angrily put it down.
Why would I go to a bar afterward? Am I out of my mind? I’m so busy with my company every day, what would I be doing in a bar? Drowning my sorrows, waiting for someone to pick me up? The worst part is, I’m supposed to be rescued by that guy.
As Lin Qingyue was still stewing in her confusion, the diary updated again.
[Hahaha, I just remembered. It’s hilarious.]
[At the bar, Lin Qingyue gets hit on and angrily throws a drink in the guy’s face.]
[Then, the male lead descends from the heavens, chasing the guy off.]
[The best part? They end up in a bar fight and accidentally kill Li Long’s son.]
[After that, they run together in the wind, and Lin Qingyue thinks it’s thrilling and exciting. She’s totally into it.]
[If her parents knew they raised such a wild child, they’d cry their eyes out.]
[Stupid female lead—after all, no female lead is ever normal.]
What the hell.
Lin Qingyue stood up abruptly and yelled, “Secretary, where the hell are you?”
The secretary cautiously opened the door and asked, “Boss … are you looking for Ye Aotian?”
“What would I need him for?”
“Didn’t he help you by beating up Young Master Chen? Given Young Master Chen’s temperament, he’ll definitely take revenge. It’s going to be rough for Ye Aotian, isn’t it?”
“What’s your point? Are you suggesting I repay him with my body?”
The secretary was stunned. That’s the fantasy of many girls, isn’t it? A guy standing up to power, protecting a girl.
It’s straight out of a romance drama!
“He’s still downstairs.”
“That has nothing to do with me. I need to ask you something.”
“Huh? What is it?”
“Do my lips look dry?”
The secretary leaned in, carefully examined her lips, and said, “Yes, they’re a bit dry. Boss, have you been feeling heated lately? You need to take care of your health and rest more. Since taking over Lin Real Estate, you’ve been pulling all-nighters. You shouldn’t push yourself too hard.”
So it’s true. I’m definitely feeling the heat.
“Buy me some medicine to reduce internal heat, and get me some lip balm too.”
“Got it, boss. What about Ye Aotian?”
“We’re in the real estate business. Clients come to see the property, and we serve them whether they buy or not. Do I need to teach you how to do your job?”
The secretary nodded repeatedly before leaving the meeting room.
Lin Qingyue didn’t think about Ye Aotian at all. Instead, she was preoccupied with figuring out why she’d go to the bar.
Or maybe, some mysterious force was guiding her there? Damn you, Chen Fan.
“Secretary.”
The secretary quickly rushed back.
“Boss, what are your instructions?”
“Buy some fruit and have it sent to the hospital.”
