Every Day the Villain Continues to Fail [Quick Transmigration]
Ruan Yao watched with his own eyes as Yu Che fell.
Yu Che's mouth kept spilling blood, his lips were blistered and rotting, oozing disgusting pus.
The students were terrified and panicked as they witnessed the horrifying scene, they moved away from Yu Che until a circle formed around him.
Yu Che stared at Ruan Yao with disbelief, he struggled to clutch his throat and then collapsed.
The students ran out stumbling, some of them brushing against Ruan Yao.
Ruan Yao felt his blood freeze.
It was truly terrifying.
How could something like this suddenly happen?
Just a moment ago, they had been talking peacefully.
Wen Siyan stood beside him, his hand gripping the thin arm of the teenager. His touch was as cold as ice.
"Calm down, everyone! Leave in an orderly manner!" Wen Siyan said while holding a stack of chemistry exam papers, pulling Ruan Yao who was still in shock, and trying to calm the students to prevent further panic.
Ruan Yao unconsciously followed Wen Siyan’s instructions and walked unsteadily.
However, the teacher did not release him.
Ruan Yao trembled, his usually proud brows now showed fear, red circles surrounded his eyes.
"Teacher..." he murmured softly, his palms sweating coldly.
"Ruan Yao, do you think a person who makes a mistake should be punished?" Wen Siyan asked gently, but his eyes, hidden behind gold-framed glasses, appeared cold. In such a critical moment, he seemed less concerned about the injured students.
Ruan Yao was confused by the question.
"Y-yes, they should be punished" he answered like a scared little rabbit, automatically following Wen Siyan's words.
The man smiled softly, as if satisfied with Ruan Yao's answer. "Good" He patted Ruan Yao's thin shoulder.
The protruding shoulder blade was painful under his palm. "Go back to the dorm and rest. The teacher will handle this matter"
Ruan Yao glanced at Yu Che, who was lying on the ground, and then asked hesitantly, "Yu Che... will he die?"
Although he didn’t like Yu Che, after all, Yu Che was his classmate.
Wen Siyan walked towards Yu Che, his voice still gentle but cold, "He won't"
Hearing that answer, Ruan Yao, who was terrified, finally felt a little relief.
He walked unsteadily down the corridor and then heard two students whispering:
"I heard the class upstairs always has problems. They say someone’s mouth suddenly started rotting, it’s really scary. They also say their tongue disappeared"
"There must be something wrong with that class. Maybe there’s a crazy person there"
"Or maybe someone’s doing strange experiments"
Ruan Yao clearly heard their conversation.
Is there a connection between these two events?
"Ruan Yao?" Chu Lingyi's voice interrupted his thoughts.
Chu Lingyi reached out and grabbed Ruan Yao's cold hand.
Ruan Yao was startled, "Why are you here?"
Still in shock, with his confusion about the situation, when he saw Chu Lingyi, he unconsciously became alert.
Chu Lingyi smiled bitterly, "I was worried about you"
Actually, Chu Lingyi had been helping the teacher with grading in the teacher's office when he heard about the incident in their class. He immediately rushed to the scene because he was concerned about Ruan Yao's condition.
He remembered that Ruan Yao and Yu Che were very close, and he was afraid Ruan Yao would be affected by this event. After all, Yu Che often whispered evil ideas into Ruan Yao's ear.
In the past, Yu Che also used to bully him together with Ruan Yao.
Chu Lingyi's gaze turned cold.
The talkative ones should be punished.
Ruan Yao reflexively pushed Chu Lingyi away. He was still deeply shocked by the injuries Yu Che had suffered.
From the bottom of the school building, he saw Yu Che being carried by medical staff on a stretcher, the blood splattering and staining Yu Che's white shirt.
The image was so horrifying that it left Ruan Yao mentally shaken.
He stared coldly at Chu Lingyi, lifting his pale, sharp chin, but his posture, instead of appearing strong, made him seem more vulnerable and insecure.
"I don't want you to pretend to be nice" Ruan Yao said coldly.
"Pretend to be nice?" The corner of Chu Lingyi's lips, which had been slightly raised, suddenly straightened.
He stared at Ruan Yao with somber eyes, then after a moment, a thin smile, no longer showing any cheer, appeared in his eyes. "I just remembered that you are the eldest son of the Ruan family."
Ruan Yao’s steps halted.
After dealing with Chu Lingyi for so long, he almost forgot that, in this world, the thing Ruan Yao hated the most about Chu Lingyi was his status.
Ruan Yao’s mother had passed away, and his father pampered him greatly, turning him into a spoiled and useless young man.
In contrast, Chu Lingyi, as an illegitimate child, was always treated harshly by his father, with no tolerance for mistakes.
The difference in treatment was very clear, and it indicated that, in fact, Ruan Yao was the "outsider" in that family.
This was all a classic story of the pigeon taking the sparrow’s nest, and Ruan Yao was the wicked pigeon full of hatred.
At first, he could continue to live in luxury as the youngest child of the Ruan family, but everything Chu Lingyi did eventually made him feel a terrifying sense of danger.
If it weren't for Chu Lingyi, he wouldn't have known that his father didn't actually care for him.
If it weren't for Chu Lingyi, I wouldn't have known that I had been living with a false identity and wasting money.
A cold smile curled at the corner of his pale lips. He slightly raised his foot to align with Chu Lingyi's gaze, his voice cold like shards of jade.
"You think by letting me get close to you all this time, I would forget your low status?"
With a disdainful tone, he curved his thin lips: "Don’t ever think you’ll surpass me, Chu Lingyi"
His beautiful eyes stared sharply into Chu Lingyi’s cold eyes, without the slightest fear. Ruan Yao slightly parted his lips, revealing a row of white teeth: "So, just leave"
The teenager appeared arrogant and proud, but behind his haughty demeanor, there was a weak and sorrowful aura, as if he were the moon that had fallen from the sky and now lay on the ground.
Chu Lingyi also smiled, but his smile felt cold and frightening. He spoke in a soft tone, "Ruan Yao, sometimes I think I shouldn’t have saved you"
Ruan Yao froze, furrowing his brow. "What do you mean?"
Chu Lingyi’s gaze was deep and dark like a bottomless pool, difficult to guess what he was thinking.
Finally, Chu Lingyi simply turned and left without saying another word.
Although Chu Lingyi was tall and large, he appeared thin and weak. From behind, he looked like a broken sword.
Ruan Yao opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but his voice sounded much weaker than before. "System, is he angry at me?"
The system quickly complimented him, "Host, your acting is becoming more perfect!"
Ruan Yao scratched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Being a villain is really hard, huh"
The system responded cheerfully, "If that's the case, we can request to switch to the kind protagonist department next time. There must be plenty of openings there"
Ruan Yao immediately felt comforted. "System, you are the best!"
The system glowed with a small green light and cheerfully said, "Giving everything for Host is my duty!"
Chu Lingyi was heading to the teacher's office to pick up some documents he had left behind, but on the way, he decided to stop by the classroom. Upon entering the empty room, he saw someone sitting there.
The person was tall with a muscular body built from regular physical training, yet still slim and athletic. Diamond earrings sparkled in his ears.
"You're Chu Lingyi, right?" he asked with a slightly dismissive tone. The question sounded more like a statement than a question.
He sneered at Chu Lingyi, who looked thinner, "I already told you, with Ruan Yao's personality, there's no way he would get close to someone like you"
Chu Lingyi calmly replied, "So, what brings you here, senior?"
Lin Xuan crossed his arms and smirked, "Actually, I'm not interested in your family affairs, but since Ruan Yao is my boyfriend..."
He emphasized the word "boyfriend" in a challenging tone, as if to show his superiority.
"So, as his boyfriend, I need to teach someone like you who dares to mess with him a lesson"
"Oh?" Chu Lingyi grinned. He had been annoyed by this muscular youth for a while. "Only with physical strength? I think your status as Ruan Yao's boyfriend is questionable"
Lin Xuan laughed loudly, "Believe it or not, that doesn't matter. What matters is that I want to give you a warning. Stay away from Ruan Yao, he's mine"
He stood on the windowsill, acting as if he were a predator ready to pounce on his prey.
Chu Lingyi despised this kind of tough-guy attitude. In his mind, intelligence was far more important than physical strength.
He wanted to respond to Lin Xuan’s words, but then he had a better idea. So, he decided to stay silent.
"I know you like Ruan Yao," Chu Lingyi said calmly. "But he doesn't like you, does he?"
Lin Xuan furrowed his brows, confused by Chu Lingyi’s statement.
Chu Lingyi gave a faint smile, "I have a secret about Ruan Yao"
Lin Xuan sneered, "I already told you, I'm not interested in your family matters."
Chu Lingyi looked slightly disappointed, "What a pity. In that case, you’ll never know Ruan Yao's secret"
