Villain: After I died, all the heroines cried themselves to sleep.

the next day.

Luo Chuan arrived at the commercial plaza he had visited before.

It was summer vacation, and the square was bustling with people.

However, Luo Chuan quickly spotted Xu Xiaojin, who was dressed very inconspicuously, by the fountain in the square.

"You're here so early?"

Luo Chuan glanced at the time; it was still fifteen minutes early for the agreed-upon time.

"After all, I'm the one who needs your help."

Xu Xiaojin lowered her gaze.

The sunlight reflecting off her glasses obscured her eyes.

Luo Chuan looked Xu Xiaojin up and down for a moment.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, let's get down to business."

He reached out and grabbed Xu Xiaojin's wrist, pulling her into the mall.

Xu Xiaojin offered no resistance and obediently followed Luo Chuan.

To onlookers, the two looked like domineering, blond-haired villains threatening an honest, simple country girl to go on a date with them.

However, the reality was not exactly the same as what they thought; it was completely unrelated.

The country girl took the initiative to contact the blond villain.

The blond villain was merely completing a task assigned by the system.

The fate of this woman of destiny takes a turn at this moment. Under your continued influence, she decides to make a change. The future of her life is now entirely in your hands.

[Objective: To assist Xu Xiaojin in her transformation, causing her to utterly degenerate and become a puppet to be manipulated at your will.]

[Reward: Fragment of Causality x1]

Unlike Fate Points, Fragments of Cause and Effect are a rare commodity for Luo Chuan.

So for this reward, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and sacrifice Xu Xiaojin to embark on the transformation route.

She might even thank us after the mission is over.

"To make a change, the first thing to do is to change your appearance."

Luo Chuan dragged Xu Xiaojin to a barbershop and pressed her directly into a chair.

He then undid her braids and took her glasses.

"Wait a minute, at least my glasses..."

Xu Xiaojin hesitated, wanting to snatch the glasses back.

"You're not nearsighted. Since you said you want to become more confident, you have to get rid of these decorative glasses."

Luo Chuan had already figured it out: Xu Xiaojin wasn't nearsighted; she was actually wearing non-prescription glasses.

He forced Xu Xiaojin to look in the mirror in front of her.

"Remember, the person in front of you is the real you."

"..."

Xu Xiaojin stared blankly at the mirror.

The woman reflected in the mirror had long, shiny black hair that was loose and flowing, with her forehead completely covered by thick bangs, making her look somewhat gloomy and melancholy.

But without the black-rimmed glasses to conceal her features, her face was finally exposed to the light.

This is the first time in many years that Hsu Hsiao-chin has faced her appearance squarely.

"They're no worse than Lu Zhiyao and the others, are they?"

Luo Chuan said.

After all, he had stayed overnight at Xu Xiaojin's house before, so he was quite familiar with and recognized Xu Xiaojin's potential.

At this moment, the hairstylist who had made an appointment in advance came over.

After exchanging a few words with the other party, Luo Chuan let them start operating the system.

The hairstylist was seen constantly trimming Xu Xiaojin's hair.

The main task is to cut and thin out the bangs, and at the same time, to comb out the tangled hair.

Until it's all over.

Xu Xiaojin, who appeared in the mirror, seemed to have become a completely different person.

Her original gloomy and sullen temperament vanished without a trace. Her thin, airy bangs could not hide her delicate features, and her smooth, long, straight black hair fell naturally, tied up at the ends, making her look even more serene.

Even the hairstylist couldn't help but admire it while looking in the mirror.

"Sisters are really hiding their beauty. Their features and faces are so good that I'm a little jealous."

As she spoke, she smiled and looked at Luo Chuan.

"Your boyfriend has great taste; you got a great deal."

"He's not my boyfriend, just a classmate, at most a part-time teacher. If you don't know, please don't make things up, okay?"

Luo Chuan looked helpless.

The villain destined to be together with the woman of destiny is a plot only found in hentai anime.

Not to mention that Xu Xiaojin already had a tomboy in her heart.

……

Leaving the barbershop, Xu Xiaojin lowered her eyes and pinched a strand of hair by her ear.

"Um... could you please give me back my glasses first?"

Having worn glasses for years, suddenly not wearing them now is like walking down the street without underwear.

It's inevitable to feel uncomfortable all over.

"Your glasses are mine now, so you have to get used to not wearing them."

Luo Chuan spoke with conviction, showing no mercy whatsoever.

"..."

Xu Xiaojin couldn't refuse Luo Chuan, so she had no choice but to hide secretly by his side.

A short while later, the two arrived at the clothing store.

"Clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse; if you want to highlight your temperament, you have to start with your clothing."

So, with the help of the sales assistant, Luo Chuan picked out a large number of clothes and had Xu Xiaojin try them on one by one.

In the end, I picked out nearly ten outfits and packed them all up to take home.

Of course, Luo Chuan was only responsible for making the selections.

Xu Xiaojin made the payment.

As for Luo Chuan's taste...

One can say that one may not trust Luo Chuan's taste, but one cannot doubt Professor Rhodes's judgment.

When leaving the mall.

The two of them were already carrying large and small bags.

Xu Xiaojin has also completely changed.

She went in as a country bumpkin with glasses, and came out as a literary young woman.

That's all for today's lesson.

Luo Chuan said to Xu Xiaojin.

"From now on, you should maintain this state of mind and use your outward appearance to influence your inner mental state, thereby gradually increasing your self-confidence."

"……Thank you."

Xu Xiaojin pursed her lips.

After a moment's hesitation, she looked up at Luo Chuan, her gaze flickering and uncertain.

"Even with the kidnapping not long ago, you've always helped me like this. I don't know how to repay you..."

"Without the clues you left behind, I wouldn't have been able to find the kidnappers' location."

Luo Chuan said dismissively.

This is a lie.

In fact, as long as you use Dijiang's Spatial Eye, you should be able to locate the location of the spatial teleportation.

However, there's no need to say this out loud.

"If you want to repay me, just remember to be available whenever I call. Before you leave Darkmoon Sword, I'll squeeze you dry."

In the field of search and positioning, Xu Xiaojin's talent is exceptionally useful.

Whether it was the parasitic demons of the past, the apostles of birth that came later, or even the entrance exams of earlier times.

She performed exceptionally well and played an irreplaceable role.

"Yes, I will definitely try my best to repay you."

Xu Xiaojin nodded seriously.

……

Several more days passed like this.

Xu Xiaojin insisted on attending the gathering hosted by the Lu family to verify the results of her efforts over the past few days.

Luo Chuan, as the mentor, was naturally not to be missed.

Besides, you can also get some Fate Points.

A bicycle is fine, it's better than nothing.

The classic scene of being stopped and harassed by security guards upon arriving at the Lu family's manor did not occur.

Luo Chuan simply showed the waiter the invitation, and the waiter respectfully welcomed him into the manor.

I had only been inside for a short time.

A figure walked towards them.
