I Somehow Became a Simping Villain - Chapter 3:

Chapter 3: Gu Yunxiang!

“200 million yuan? Mom, where did you hear that rumor?”

Ye Feng showed no guilt at all and continued, “Mom, didn’t the doctor say your heart isn’t in good condition? You’re not supposed to get angry.”

“If you keep getting upset like this, sooner or later you’ll develop heart disease, you know?”

In the original novel, his mother Zhou Xuehua had indeed been angered into heart disease by this prodigal “Ye Feng.”

“I’m getting angry?”

Zhou Xuehua trembled with rage. Could things get any worse? When would parents ever be able to stand tall again? She demanded, “Ye Feng, answer me. Did you give our company’s 200 million yuan to Bai Susu?”

“No.”

Ye Feng answered simply and decisively.

Zhou Xuehua fell silent.

“Really not?”

She was half-convinced, half-suspicious. She knew her son very well. He might be wasteful, but he would at least admit it afterward.

Rumors had been spreading in their circle that Ye Feng was acting like a simp for Bai Susu. She had advised him not to hang himself on a single tree.

But Ye Feng had refused to listen and only became more excessive in showing his affection for Bai Susu.

Zhou Xuehua had even regretted not having a second child. Otherwise, she would not have so many tears to shed.

But now that Ye Feng firmly denied it, had he really changed?

“If you want to know, just call the finance department in a couple of days,” Ye Feng said helplessly.

“I will.”

Zhou Xuehua changed the topic and added, “But I called you here today for something else.”

“What is it?”

“A blind date!”

What Zhou Xuehua wanted was simple. She wanted to find Ye Feng a wife as soon as possible and cut off his hopeless path of being a simp.

…

“Aunt Zhou, Brother Ye Feng, sorry. I just got off work. The company has been busy.”

Not long after, a girl in a white dress hurried into the private room. There was a small vermilion mark between her brows.

Her makeup was delicate, and her appearance was graceful and refined. It was clear she had dressed up carefully.

But she had rushed over in a hurry, so her breathing was slightly uneven, and her chest rose and fell rapidly.

“Yunxiang, you’re here. Come, sit.”

“How has your company been lately?”

Zhou Xuehua immediately changed from her strict demeanor and warmly took Gu Yunxiang’s hand, guiding her to sit beside her.

This was the daughter of her best friend, practically half a childhood sweetheart of Ye Feng, and also his blind date.

However, ever since Gu Yunxiang went to Yandu for university, the two had not seen each other for several years.

After returning to Jinling, Gu Yunxiang started her own design company and was currently in the early stages of entrepreneurship.

“It’s going well. Everything is smooth, just a bit busy. I need to put in more time,” Gu Yunxiang said with a smile, though she looked a little nervous and shy.

“If you run into any difficulties, remember to tell Aunt Zhou. We’re not outsiders,” Zhou Xuehua said kindly.

She had treated Gu Yunxiang like her own daughter since she was young, and now she was even more eager to bring her home as her daughter-in-law.

Compared to Bai Susu, who kept her son hanging, Gu Yunxiang was someone she knew well and trusted, with an emotional foundation between them. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her.

“I understand, Aunt Zhou,” Gu Yunxiang replied politely.

“Alright then, you young people chat. I’ll go outside and make some tea.”

Zhou Xuehua stood up with a smile, leaving Ye Feng and Gu Yunxiang alone.

“B-Brother Ye Feng, long time no see.”

Being alone together, Gu Yunxiang felt a bit at a loss.

“Long time no see.”

Ye Feng smiled in response, while inwardly complaining about his past self in the novel. Such a good girl, yet that idiot Ye Feng never knew how to cherish her.

In the original story, Gu Yunxiang was the most tragic character. She and Bai Susu were both goddess-level beauties, but they were completely different.

After graduating from university, Gu Yunxiang started her own business. From nothing, she worked her way up through hardships and eventually achieved success in her career.

Zhou Xuehua, eager to make her daughter-in-law, had offered help many times, but Gu Yunxiang refused.

She liked Ye Feng, but she wanted to rely on her own abilities to become part of the Ye Family, not be a decorative vase who only accepted favors.

Her feelings for Ye Feng reached the level of devotion. Even though Ye Feng did not like her and often showed dislike, she never backed down.

Later, when the Ye Family went bankrupt, she used all her savings to help Ye Feng make a comeback.

As long as Ye Feng needed something, she would give everything without reservation.

Unfortunately, such a good girl was never appreciated by the Ye Feng in the novel. Not only did he treat her as a substitute for Bai Susu and a tool to vent his desires, but he also used her intelligence to deal with Lin Yi.

In the end, Gu Yunxiang went bankrupt. The only thing she had left was the child in her womb, theirs together.

But that bastard Ye Feng in the novel showed no concern at all. After abandoning Gu Yunxiang, he continued chasing Bai Susu and even became a follower of his enemy Lin Yi.

Finally, in complete despair, Gu Yunxiang jumped from a tall building, ending two lives at once.

“Damn it, just thinking about that plot makes me angry.”

Ye Feng could already feel his anger rising. Such a good girl, how was she inferior to Bai Susu?

Anyone with common sense would know Gu Yunxiang was the better choice.

Returning to reality, because Gu Yunxiang was shy and reserved around Ye Feng, and since it had been years since they last met, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

“You probably haven’t finished eating yet. Let me peel some fruit for you.”

As he spoke, Ye Feng peeled an apple and handed it to her.

“Thank you, Brother Ye Feng.”

Gu Yunxiang accepted it politely.

This was the first time Ye Feng had taken the initiative.

The apple was sweet, but her heart felt even sweeter.

“Oh my, you two are already chatting so well. Looks like I came in at the wrong time.”

Zhou Xuehua walked back in with a teapot, secretly delighted at the sight.

She had been worried that Ye Feng might not like Gu Yunxiang, but now it seemed she had been overthinking.

“Aunt Zhou, I…”

Gu Yunxiang’s face was redder than the apple.

“Alright, you young people have fun. I’ll go take care of other things.”

“Ye Feng, take Yunxiang out for a walk. Maybe go watch a movie or something.”

Zhou Xuehua hinted again. Wasn’t this the perfect chance to deepen their relationship?

“Alright, let’s go watch a movie.”

A smile appeared on Ye Feng’s lips. He clearly remembered that tonight, Bai Susu was going on a date with Lin Yi at Commercial Street to watch a movie.

This was a perfect opportunity for a “counterattack.”

Only by constantly counterattacking, changing the original plot, and plundering the protagonist Lin Yi’s destiny could he change both his own fate and Gu Yunxiang’s.

After leaving Zizhu Pavilion, Ye Feng brought Gu Yunxiang to the mall.

According to the plotline, tonight Bai Susu would be here watching a movie with Lin Yi.

While planning his counterattack and picking up girls at the same time, Ye Feng had already bought the movie tickets.

He looked at Gu Yunxiang. Light makeup, a white dress, stunningly beautiful.

Especially the vermilion mark between her brows, which added a touch of strength to her soft and delicate face.

“Yunxiang, if I remember correctly, this dress of yours should be from last year’s trend, right?”

Ye Feng’s gaze fell on her dress, causing Gu Yunxiang’s heart to suddenly pound.

She felt a little uneasy.
