I Somehow Became a Simping Villain - Chapter 1:
Chapter 1: Transmigrated into the Villain’s Simp!
“Holy crap, have you heard? Ye Family’s eldest young master, Ye Feng, actually invested a full 200 million yuan in the Bai Group just to chase Bai Susu.”
“The Bai Group is a complete mess. They’ve been losing money for years and are practically bankrupt. Isn’t that just throwing money away?”
“Is this the kind of extravagance you get from being the only son of a wealthy family?”
“Ye Feng is such a prodigal. One day he’s going to anger his father to death.”
“Well, you can’t really blame Young Master Ye for being blinded by love. Miss Bai Susu is just too beautiful!”
On Jinling Commercial Street, inside Yiwuxuan Restaurant, Ye Feng was having dinner with Bai Susu and her best friend.
Rumors spread like wildfire. As the number one rich young master in Jinling, Ye Feng attracted plenty of curious onlookers, who gathered around to watch the scene unfold.
The investment contract lay on the edge of the table. That contract worth 200 million yuan drew countless eyes.
Young Master Ye had thrown down 200 million yuan.
Would he finally win the beauty’s heart?
Or was he nothing more than a pathetic simp?
“What the hell… Did I transmigrate?”
Ye Feng widened his eyes, scanning his surroundings in confusion.
Moments later, a flood of memories surged into his mind.
“Unbelievable. I actually became the villainous simp in a novel.”
Ye Feng was speechless.
The world he was now in was the setting of a cliché urban web novel.
Unfortunately, he had even read this brainless novel titled Dominating the City of Flowers.
It mentioned the novel of the protagonist Lin Yi, who, blessed with protagonist luck, met the female lead Bai Susu and spent his days showing off and slapping faces before rising to the peak of life.
As the main villain in the novel, Ye Feng was tall, rich, and handsome. Yet he shamelessly chased after Bai Susu, insisting he would marry no one but her. In the end, Bai Susu ended up with Lin Yi.
Burning with resentment, Ye Feng sought revenge against Lin Yi, only to be crushed at every turn, humiliated repeatedly, and eventually destroyed, his family ruined.
Worst of all, the female lead Bai Susu once told him, “If you truly like me, you should wish me happiness instead of caring about who I like.”
And for this so-called green tea, Ye Feng continued loving her silently. He even let go of his hatred and ran off to become Lin Yi’s follower.
“What a brain-dead plot. I feel like throwing up.”
A chill ran down Ye Feng’s spine. He felt his intelligence had been insulted.
He was a dignified rich young master, the young executive of the Zhou Group. Wouldn’t it be better to spend his money enjoying life? Why would he lower himself to be a simp?
It was not like he had grown up drinking tainted milk powder.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have successfully bound the Villain Counterattack System. Please defeat the protagonist Lin Yi and rewrite your destiny.]
A crisp mechanical voice suddenly rang out in his mind.
“A system?”
Ye Feng’s heart leaped with joy.
[Yes. This system is dedicated to helping you rise against your fate.]
[When the Host alters the original plot settings of the novel and plunders the protagonist Lin Yi’s luck, status, and harem, you will gain Counterattack Points.]
[Counterattack Points can be exchanged for skills, items, and more, allowing the Host to grow stronger and ascend to the peak of life.]
After hearing the explanation, Ye Feng inwardly exclaimed, Nice.
He had no intention of becoming the idiot described in the novel.
His destiny would be decided by himself.
“According to the next part of the plot, Bai Susu should be about to reject my invitation to watch a movie tonight.”
In the original plotline, after handing over the 200 million yuan investment, Ye Feng invited Bai Susu to watch a movie, intending to confess his feelings.
As everyone later found out, the plan was beautiful, but it failed at the very first step. Bai Susu did not agree to the movie at all.
As the female lead of the novel, Bai Susu had rosy lips, white teeth, and extraordinary beauty. Her glossy black hair cascaded like a waterfall over her pleated skirt.
To be fair, she was extremely beautiful. Those long legs alone were enough to captivate someone for years.
Bai Susu parted her lips slightly and said in a troubled tone, “I’m sorry, Brother Ye Feng. I’m going shopping with my best friend later, so I can’t go to the movies with you.”
After speaking, she discreetly shot a look at her best friend, Lin Fengjiao.
Lin Fengjiao quickly nodded, though her expression was somewhat uneasy. “Yes, Young Master Ye, we’re going shopping soon.”
Shopping?
Ye Feng sneered inwardly.
Did they really think he was that easy to fool?
Having read the original novel, Ye Feng knew perfectly well that after leaving here, Bai Susu would go shopping with the protagonist Lin Yi.
She wanted to get 200 million yuan of investment from him for free?
Just as the onlookers were about to comment that Young Master Ye had lost 200 million yuan for nothing, Ye Feng suddenly reached out his hand and took back the investment contract.
“You can go shopping with your friend,” Ye Feng said calmly. “But as for investing in your Bai Family, I’ll have to reconsider.”
“Brother Ye Feng, how can you do this? You clearly know how important this 200 million yuan is to our Bai Family. I trusted you so much. Why are you going back on your word?”
Seeing the contract pulled away, Bai Susu panicked.
She stood up anxiously, her beautiful face flushed with anger and grievance.
Ye Feng chuckled. Ah, so he had stepped on her tail.
“I bet a pack of spicy strips that once Bai Susu gets angry, Ye Feng will definitely give in.”
“Have some confidence. Why not bet ten packs?”
“I’ll bet one tea egg that Ye Feng will obediently hand the contract back. I know this plot by heart.”
The onlookers whispered among themselves. Based on Ye Feng’s usual behavior, he would definitely cave.
If it were the Ye Feng from the novel, he indeed would have done so. He would even think about how to please Bai Susu better next time.
But the current Ye Feng was different.
“Miss Bai Susu, what do you think my reason is for investing in your Bai Family?” Ye Feng asked with a smile.
“Isn’t it because you see the potential of our Bai Family? Our future is promising, so that’s why you invested, right, Brother Ye Feng?” Bai Susu replied, blinking her watery eyes innocently.
Onlookers: “???”
Ye Feng: “???”
Lin Fengjiao: “???”
Your Bai Family is on the verge of bankruptcy.
What potential are we talking about?
Is this something that can even be invested in?
No.
Your Bai Family does not have that qualification.
“Susu, maybe you should just agree to watch a movie with Young Master Ye. It’s not like you’ll lose anything,” Lin Fengjiao whispered, tugging at her friend’s skirt.
Even a fool could see that Ye Feng was investing purely because of Bai Susu.
“Wouldn’t that make me look like I’m begging for money?” Bai Susu said angrily. She had her pride.
Lin Fengjiao was about to say more, but Bai Susu pressed her hands against the table and declared firmly, “Brother Ye Feng, you’ve always been good to me and taken care of me before. I’m very grateful.”
“Our Bai Family truly needs this 200 million yuan investment. I would be very happy if you could help us in our time of need.”
“But tonight, I really can’t go to the movies with you.”
“However, if you’re willing to give me the contract, I can make an exception and let you drive me home.”
It was as if Bai Susu had made a difficult decision. In all her life, she had never let a boy take her home.
Except for Senior Lin Yi.
But for Ye Feng, this was the only compromise she was willing to make.
Seeing her best friend say this much, Lin Fengjiao finally let out a breath of relief.
Still, with Bai Susu having already said so much, Ye Feng should at least respond, shouldn’t he?
