Chapter 285 Escape
Direct destruction would easily attract the attention of the monitor. Since there was a system to help, Ye Xi simply asked it to find a surveillance video to cover the current one.

There was a whirring sound, and then a mechanical electronic voice rang out: "Alright, the four visible surveillance cameras and the two invisible surveillance cameras in the dark have all been replaced with the image of you sitting by the window."

"Very good," Ye Xi said without a smile. Fu Linchuan was really cautious. If it weren't for the system, she might not be able to find the two invisible surveillance cameras by herself.

"Now, help me get out of here."

It's different with a plug-in. The iron ring fell with a click, and the fingerprint lock was easily opened. The nanny who went upstairs to clean saw her and was surprised. Before she could say anything, she fell into a deep sleep under the influence of the system.

All the surveillance cameras outside the bedroom were also replaced. Ye Xi searched the entire villa but couldn't find her mobile phone and ID card. She guessed that Fu Linchuan might have taken them away.

There's no need to waste time on things you can't get back. Ye Xi walked back to the nanny, took out her cell phone, and called the person she had contacted yesterday.

After briefly explaining the situation and agreeing on a meeting place, Ye Xi put her phone back and walked out of the villa. She didn't know when Fu Linchuan would be back, and now that she had regained her freedom, she naturally couldn't stay in the villa any longer.

Fu Linchuan didn't even leave her a car key, so she could only walk out of the villa area.

After another twenty minutes of waiting, a low-profile nanny car pulled up to the side of the road. Ye Xi was picked up and rushed to the airport without wasting a second. They had already bought her a ticket as soon as Ye Xi had requested, and also gave her a new phone so that she could contact the Ye family.

The car sped along, and Ye Xi felt inexplicably anxious and uneasy, constantly urging the driver to go faster and faster. It was not until he entered security and was about to change his card to board the plane that the anxiety dissipated a little.

Just as she was about to board the plane, Ye Xi instinctively sensed something and glanced towards the security checkpoint. Then, she saw Fu Linchuan in the crowd from a distance.

Fu Linchuan's sensitivity was no less than hers at certain times. She didn't know when he discovered that something was wrong with the surveillance, and how he dropped everything and chased after her at that moment.

He saw her, too. His hawk-like gaze locked onto her among the crowds of people coming and going at the airport. Nothing blocked their view, and this glance at her seemed like destiny.

She saw that Fu Linchuan's hair was a little messy and his breathing was a little rapid. It seemed that he ran all the way in after getting off the bus. After seeing her, he ran straight to her. But even so, he was still a step late. Ye Xi had bought the nearest bus and arrived on time. When Fu Linchuan came over, he could no longer get in and had to miss her at the last moment.

It was a close call, I was almost caught.

Ye Xi withdrew her gaze from him and walked forward resolutely. As long as they returned to Yuncheng, no matter how powerful Fu Linchuan was, he would be cautious and would not easily attack her again.

With this thought in mind, Ye Xi boarded the plane to Yuncheng with peace of mind.

Behind him, Fu Linchuan's eyes were burning and dangerous.

The long flight made the passengers drowsy. In the quiet, Ye Xi stared blankly at the layers of white clouds outside the window.

"Host, how are you going to help the hero?" Seeing that she was safe, the system couldn't wait to ask her what her next plan was.

Ye Xi supported her head with her fingers pressing on her temples: "First, tell me about Jiang Yixuan's recent movements."

The system hesitated for a moment: "I'm not authorized to reveal key plot details to you." "Hmph." Ye Xi turned her head away with a forced smile, "I remember when I first installed surveillance cameras at the Jiang family's house, I asked you to help me sync Jiang Yixuan's driving records. What was your answer to me then?"

"Oh~ You said at the time that you couldn't touch anything except the host," Ye Xi said with a cryptic smile, "Let the chain break automatically, the fingerprint lock unlock itself, and the nanny fall into a coma in an instant. Well, I really didn't touch anything."

The system is silent.

This is indeed inconsistent, but it is not inexplicable: "Because your plot is not part of the main plot, it was originally caused by your disobedience to the plot arrangement and obediently paving the way for the male protagonist. I did this only to correct the plot."

"But the male protagonist is different. Everything related to the male protagonist will affect the main plot. I can't help you."

Ye Xi didn't let it get away with him and tried to get more useful information.

"I suggested earlier that there was a mutual interest between you and Jiang Yixuan, and you didn't deny it. Could you tell me more specifically?"

The system hesitates.

"There must be some kind of connection between you and him. Otherwise, if you have done so much for him and he is completely unaware of it from beginning to end, you would be too wronged," Ye Xi said, looking as if he really felt it was not worth it.

The system didn't answer directly: "Don't talk about me, talk about you, the female lead, the male supporting role. The whole world serves the male lead. It's only natural for me to do all this."

"Really?" Ye Xi didn't say whether she believed it or not, and continued to induce, "Then, what about Fu Linchuan?"

"What?" The system was stunned.

"Fu Linchuan's existence should have already had an impact on Jiang Yixuan. In terms of family background, talent, appearance, and popularity, he's no match for Jiang Yixuan in any way. Since you say everything in this world must serve the male protagonist, then I really don't understand how the existence of someone like Fu Linchuan can benefit Jiang Yixuan."

With such a brilliant example before him, who would give him up and choose Jiang Yixuan? If this world must have a male protagonist, wouldn't he be more suitable than Jiang Yixuan?

"Since he can't bring any help to Jiang Yixuan and may even become a threat, why hasn't the system taken any action? You even have to avoid him and don't even dare to go online in his presence."

The system felt a faint sense of unease. Did she remember something? No, it couldn't be. Her memory had been overwritten so many times that she absolutely couldn't remember it.

Ye Xi saw the system's silence as an answer. "If you insist on saying he's some kind of alien entity that can't even influence the system, the plot, or the world's destiny, then I still have a question: why does he have to pester me?"

The system's voice has always been as mechanical as electricity, but Ye Xi can always hear the hidden emotions in it. For example, now, it is nervous.

"Haven't you already discovered it yourself? You happen to look exactly like his white moonlight. He treats you as a substitute for his lover."

"Very good, then one last question." Ye Xi put down his hands that were supporting his head, slowly sat up straight, and looked up at the clouds under his feet.

"Why do I look exactly like his lover?"
