The Villain Loaded My System

After another week of no afternoon classes, Gu Xiyu went to see Xie Chunhua and told her about the land deed.

Xie Chunhua sat on the sofa for a long time without speaking, probably too shocked by the sudden news.

Her first words afterward were, “Since it’s something your grandfather gave you, then you should keep it well, what’s the point of giving it to me?”

“It’s mainly because it’s too heavy for me, and I don’t think I can afford it.”

Xie Chunhua sighed, “Mom is just an ordinary woman, I don’t know anything about big business or land matters.
Your father has been calling and messaging me for the past few days, saying that he knows he’s wrong and that he wants us to get back together.
If you transfer the land to me and he finds out, he’ll definitely go crazy.”

When it came to Gu Sichuang, Gu Xiyu’s feelings were more or less complicated.

Gu Sichuang had barely fulfilled his parenting responsibilities over the years and had given little to his family, but the land was still family property.
He could ask Xie Chunhua to divorce Gu Sichuang because he wanted to save her from being subjected to his manipulation and control, but it wasn’t right to completely disregard his life or death.

“Aren’t the Lu family in business? Why don’t you find some time to talk to Mr.
Lu and his family and ask their opinion? Your grandfather must have trusted that you would make good use of it when he left it to you, and it’s good that you have this heart to think of mom.”

Gu Xiyu thought about it and suggested, “It’s okay, I’ll put your name on it first, and I’ll tell you what I’m going to do with the land before making a decision.”

He knew that the Lu family had many businesses and knew that they needed the land now, but perhaps he was being habitually wary, he felt he couldn’t fully trust the Lu family yet.

There was some doubt in what Zhou Ci said.
With the Lu family’s ability, how could they fail to find the owner of the land if they really wanted to?

The matter of Lu Ziqing’s grandfather also seemed strange, especially since he hadn’t found anything to do with ghosts and gods in this world.
If he hadn’t divorced Lu Mingren, the land would technically count as one of the properties he officially acquired after his marriage.
Then wouldn’t the Lu family have been able to go through that connection to grab the land?

Of course, this was just his guess, and he hoped that he was overthinking it.

Gu Xiyu spent the rest of his days live-streaming, doing homework, and supervising Lu Ziqing’s studies.

By the time his school-term homework was almost done, it was also almost time for his and Lu Ziqing’s final exams.

Gu Xiyu was reviewing the class PowerPoint when the system’s voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

[Haven’t you noticed that Lu Ziqing hasn’t come home yet?] Perhaps it was his illusion, but it felt like the cold, mechanical voice had a slight anger in it.

’

Gu Xiyu was slightly stunned, and before he could reply, Lu Mingren also suddenly came looking for him.

“Xiyu, did Ziqing tell you when he would be back today?”

Gu Xiyu glanced at the clock on the wall, it was already after 7 p.m.

No wonder it felt particularly quiet today, it was because there was less harassment from the rebellious kid.

Lu Ziqing hadn’t come back at this hour, which Lu Mingren might have found normal in the past.
Ever since Gu Xiyu started supervising him, Lu Ziqing would come straight home after school every day and rarely stay out at night without saying so.

Gu Xiyu looked at his phone, the last message on it was hours ago.

Rebellious teenager: [Little mom, I’m coming home soon, have you thought of where you want me to kiss you today?]

Gu Xiyu expressionlessly turned off the screen and said to Lu Mingren, “I’ll go out and look for him.”

In his mind, he asked the system, “Where is he?”

[The equipment warehouse by the school gymnasium.]

“?” Why would Lu Ziqing be in a place like that?

Not long after, the system added, [He is with Xu Chengxuan and Lin Mianmian.]

“……”

Lu Mingren still had his mobile phone in his hand, as if he had come over during the call.
His expression was slightly relieved to hear him say that, and he generously gave him the keys, saying, “You can take my car out.”

Gu Xiyu did not refuse.

There were relatively few buses at this point, so the fastest way to get to the school was to drive.

Lu Ziqing was obviously preparing to leave the school when he sent him the message, so the odds were that something had happened, but it shouldn’t be too serious, otherwise the main system would have sent out an emergency notification long ago.

’

The school was quiet at night, with only the security guard at the security booth left to keep watch.

Gu Xiyu said to him, “Excuse me, my brother and his friends seem to have been maliciously locked in the school warehouse, I may need to trouble you to open the door for me.”

The security guard looked shocked when he heard this and went over to him in disbelief.

The door to the school gym required a swipe card to unlock it, and once inside, the equipment room in the corner also had reinforced iron doors and was soundproof.
The gymnasium was huge, so it would take a miracle to hear sounds from there.

The security guard was shocked when he opened the door and saw the three dejected students, and he became even more nervous than they were: “My goodness, why are you three still in this place at this time?”

Lu Ziqing was also speechless.

He just happened to be passing by the playground after school and was asked by the PE teacher, who looked a bit flustered and needed to leave, to help put some things in the equipment room.
He was in a good mood after sending a message to Gu Xiyu, so he agreed to do so.

He had just walked into the depths of the equipment room to put the things away when he suddenly heard some arguing from the doorway.
Then, from afar, he saw two students, a boy and a girl, being pushed into the equipment room with great force, and the only exit was quickly locked by the people outside.

Before the door closed, he saw that the two people who were pushed in were Xu Chengxuan and Lin Mianmian.

As soon as the door closed, the equipment room, which only had a small window in the far corner, instantly became dim.
Xu Chengxuan tried to turn on the light at first, but he didn’t expect it to work properly.

Lin Mianmian bent down to pick up the things that the people outside had thrown in, and her soft voice was tinged with sobs, “What do we do? My phone is all broken.”

Lu Ziqing took a few seconds to fully realize the current situation and could only scratch his hair in annoyance as he walked towards the door.

Lin Mianmian looked up and saw a figure coming from the darkness of the equipment store, so she cried out in shock and hid behind Xu Chengxuan.
Only when the other person stepped into the dim light did she speak in shock: “Lu, Lu Ziqing?”

Lu Ziqing tried to kick the iron door a few times, but the door was too strong to move at all.

As he took out his mobile phone, he asked Lin Mianmian, “Why are you in here?”

He didn’t even look at Xu Chengxuan, instead, the latter sized him up again with a complicated look on his face.

Lin Mianmian was flustered as she replied, “Uh, it’s the students from Class 1.
They ……”

’

She wanted to say something but didn’t continue, and it was Xu Chengxuan who finally picked up the conversation for her, “It’s the ones who were looking for trouble with you before, they were angry that Mianmian went over to the office that day to give evidence, so they wanted to get back at her.”

Xu Chengxuan was with her, and as the top scholar that the group of boys in class one had long hated, they simply locked them both up together.

Lu Ziqing sneered, “Tomorrow is the first day of finals, they really know how to pick their time.”

He pressed the buttons on his phone a few times before confirming that his phone had shut down due to a dead battery.
The situation happened so suddenly, and Lin Mianmian had to be comforted.

Later, he and Xu Chengxuan had a talk, so he didn’t immediately think of contacting Gu Xiyu through the system.

Lu Ziqing, who had just come back from his memories, looked into Gu Xiyu’s eyes and said confidently, “I couldn’t help watching your gaming videos during lunch break, so the phone ran out of battery.”

“……I wanted to hear your voice.” The words were spoken in a low voice, but it was enough for Gu Xiyu to hear.

This was great, he didn’t even know where to start when he wanted to curse.

After thinking about it, he could only say, “Then why did you join in on the fun?”

Lu Ziqing was bewildered: “?”

According to Gu Xiyu’s understanding of the world’s plot line, this was supposed to be the part where the male and female protagonists were alone together and their relationship heated up, but unexpectedly, a light bulb, Lu Ziqing, appeared in the middle.

With the Great Demon King around, how could the two main characters develop their relationship further?

When they reached the school gate, a silver car happened to be parked at the entrance.

Zhou Tianyi and Liu Sheng got out of the car and found Xu Chengxuan and Lin Mianmian, who were in a mess.

It was the first time Gu Xiyu saw such a serious expression on Liu Sheng’s face, and if Lin Mianmian hadn’t explained the situation to him in time, he would have punched Xu Chengxuan and Lu Ziqing in the face, thinking that they had plotted to make his dear sister stay late with them.

It was only after Zhou Tianyi finished hugging Xu Chengxuan that she noticed Lu Ziqing at the side.

’

However, Lu Ziqing’s gaze no longer rested on her as before; it now looked wholeheartedly at Gu Xiyu, and his face had a vaguely pampering expression when he spoke.

Lu Ziqing lowered his head and whispered to Gu Xiyu, “Just now in the equipment room, Xu Chengxuan approached me and said a lot, he already knows my relationship with him.”

“But it’s so strange, now that I see him again and hear him mention those things …… I don’t seem to be as angry and hateful as before.”

“Tell me, why is that?”

Gu Xiyu slowly raised his head and met Lu Ziqing’s eyes, which looked like they were filled with stars in the darkness, and his mood was suddenly a little inexplicable.

At the other end, Lin Mianmian, who had calmed Liu Sheng, suddenly came in front of them and looked at Lu Ziqing a little fearfully before bowing to Gu Xiyu: “Thank you Xixi, if it wasn’t for you today, we might have been trapped inside until tomorrow.”

Gu Xiyu smiled lightly, “Nit’s nothing, didn’t your brother come looking for you too?”

Lin Mianmian smiled adorably, her eyes inadvertently meeting Lu Ziqing’s.

Perhaps because she remembered the threat in his voice that day, or because she was also afraid of the imposing aura in his eyes, Lin Mianmian’s mind went blank, and she suddenly blurted out a question, “Your brother came to pick you up, won’t you give him a kiss?”

Only after speaking did she realize the nonsense she had said and subconsciously covered her mouth.
Her ears, cheeks, and neck all gradually turned red.

Lu Ziqing: “?”

Gu Xiyu: “……”

Xu Chengxuan, who was also ready to come over to say thank you but accidentally heard these words: “……?”

 

The author has something to say.

Xu Chengxuan: Who am I, where am I and what did I hear?

Lin Mianmian: I’ve already bought a good room on Mars.
