Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

Lu Chengzhou...?

That shouldn't be the case.

This kid wrote his own script and then ruined it. Isn't he out of his mind?

But who else could it be besides Lu Chengzhou?

Lin Chen turned his gaze to Su Qiaoman, who was standing to the side.

Based on his understanding of her, she was the kind of person who had almost no friends.

Therefore, when she is in danger, no one should come to her aid.

Could it be that she suddenly gained explosive power and launched a counterattack?

Judging from her gentle and weak appearance, she doesn't seem like someone who has the ability to fight back.

"What are you doing here with that stick?"

Su Qiaoman suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Chen with a cold gaze.

She gripped the hem of her dress tightly.

He suppressed his anger.

"Young Master Lin, you wouldn't be planning to play the hero and save the damsel in distress, would you?"

Lin Chen instinctively sensed a hint of danger.

However, he didn't think Su Qiaoman could do anything to him, so he naturally accepted it.

“I was passing by and saw that you looked like you needed help, so I came to check on you. After all, I'm still openly pursuing you, and I can't just watch you suffer.”

Lin Chen should have just admitted it, but he had to say something unpleasant to save face.

This completely ignited Su Qiaoman's anger.

She gave a cold laugh.

"Young Master Lin, if I may be so bold as to ask, where were you standing just now?"

There was only the high wall behind her, while the other three sides were open.

Su Qiaoman was quite certain that Lin Chen did not see her when she was surrounded.

He was definitely not just passing by by chance.

So how did he predict that these people would surround her?

There's only one possibility—those people are related to Lin Chen!

135. The play was a flop, but not a complete disaster.

Women, once they shed their romantic mindset, experience a dramatic increase in intelligence.

Lin Chen felt a chill run down his spine as she stared at him with those gloomy eyes.

This Su Qiaoman, who usually looks so gentle and weak, how come she's like a tiger or a leopard right now?

Just then, Zhao Facai arrived.

The moment Su Qiaoman saw Zhao Facai, her expression turned even uglier.

She knew this person!

The debt collection team that was relentlessly pressuring her was Zhao Facai's people.

It can be said that Zhao Facai cast a huge shadow over her life!

"Su Qiaoman, you don't know, do you?"

Zhao Facai began to recite, haltingly, the lines that Lu Chengzhou had given him.

"Our young master Lin has even had a falling out with his family because of you!"

"He even fought with me, just to get justice for you!"

"Yes, our Lin family is indeed your creditor, but now..."

Hearing this, Su Qiaoman could no longer bear to listen.

Connecting the causes and consequences, a paranoid concept formed in her mind: all her suffering was caused by Lin Chen!

The people chasing after the debt are from the Lin family.

The person who just threatened her with force was also from the Lin family.

Zhao Facai and Lin Chen are in cahoots.

Lin Chen could predict those people's debt-collecting behavior, but he never offered to help her, purely because he wanted to see her suffer and be miserable!

Ha! Still trying to play the hero and save the damsel in distress? Want to see her tearfully grateful? Want to manipulate her like a puppet?

Dream on!

This vicious man

She will never forgive him!

When she finally steps on his head, she'll show him what despair truly means!

Su Qiaoman suppressed her anger and calmly said, "No need to say anything more, I'm going back to the classroom."

Lin Chen noticed her strange expression and felt inexplicably uneasy: "Wait a minute, what do you mean by this?"

"Don't you understand what I mean, Young Master Lin?"

Don't play games with me, I don't like it.

At this moment, Lin Chen was actually a little flustered.

However, he was still stubbornly clinging to his pride.

He still speaks with a strong voice.

Su Qiaoman was too lazy to talk to him anymore; she was afraid she would swear.

Whether you like it or not is none of my business.

"Su Qiaoman, stop right there! Did I give you permission to leave?"

She tried to leave, but he grabbed her arm.

Lin Chen waved his hand, telling Zhao Facai to get lost, as he wanted to talk to Su Qiaoman alone.

……

Su Qiaoman was dragged by him into an empty classroom.

Lin Chen locked the door immediately.

Su Qiaoman sat down in the chair with a cold face, without saying a word.

Lin Chen felt angry when he saw her like that.

However, considering that he had indeed handled the matter improperly, he refrained from saying anything unpleasant.

They lowered their stance somewhat.

"Are you misunderstanding something? Let's have a proper talk."

"There's nothing left to talk about."

Su Qiaoman's love for him was now completely dead.

For her, even just breathing in the same classroom as Lin Chen made her feel uncomfortable.

She's only staying here now because of Lin Chen's status and background.

Lin Chen pulled up a chair and sat down opposite her.

"Su Qiaoman, I have to remind you, whether you like me or not, you have to keep acting with me."

"Will you still play a couple?"

Su Qiaoman smiled and shook her head.

"Stop acting, don't you find it tiring?"

Lin Chen's lips twitched.

He didn't want to act either!

Isn't this Lu Chengzhou holding the jade pendant in his grasp, forcing him into a difficult situation?

Su Qiaoman stood up, preparing to leave.

Lin Chen grabbed her wrist again.

His patience had run out once again.

Thinking about the jade pendant, he was extremely anxious, and his tone became harsh.

"Whether you act or not is not up to you. What right do you have to refuse me? Let me tell you the truth: if you don't act and ruin my big plans, you'll only end up in a worse situation than you are now!"

With that one threatening remark, Su Qiaoman's hatred for him reached its peak.

She suddenly turned around and slapped Lin Chen hard across the face.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.

……

On Zhao Facai's side.

Sensing something was wrong, he immediately jumped over the wall and ran away.

what?

Should we go back and try to save him?

What kind of rescue is this!

If Lu Chengzhou knew he had messed things up, he would definitely kill him in a heartbeat.

Rather than waiting for the other party to come knocking on his door to deal with him, he might as well run away now, buy a plane ticket and go mining in Africa. It's better than staying in Yicheng and waiting to die.
