I’m the Villain’s Lackey, and I Started by Forcibly Kissing the Villain’s Sister - Chapter 50:

Chapter 50: The Banquet Is About to Begin

“Impressive! As expected of a newcomer, really brave!”

“5,000 yuan… It’s a lot, but if something goes wrong after eating it, even a hospital visit wouldn’t cover the costs…”

“Uh, it should be fine. These ingredients don’t seem to have any toxins or anything.”

Thus, amid everyone’s extreme unease, Xiao Mei picked up the round, plump object.

Mustered her courage, and took a big bite!

Immediately, she felt a warmth spread throughout her body…

It felt as if she were embraced by the arms of nature.

It was a very wonderful and peculiar sensation.

Under everyone’s eager gaze, she slowly turned around.

She felt an itching sensation on her face, like tiny bugs crawling.

In less than a minute, a miraculous transformation took place on her face…

The pimples on her forehead and the red spots on her face faded by more than half!

This scene completely stunned everyone present!

“(ΩДΩ) Whoa… Whoa!! Is this real? Am I seeing things?!”

“Xiao Mei, you… you…”

“My god, is this for real? Is it April Fool’s Day? Or did a magician come to film a show here?”

“No… impossible…”

At this moment, all the experts felt like their brains weren’t functioning properly.

Or rather, all their previous understanding of cosmetics and skincare products had been overturned!

“What’s wrong? Am I still ugly?”

Xiao Mei touched her face and couldn’t help feeling upset…

She didn’t expect everyone to show such expressions and reactions.

If she had known it would disappoint them, she wouldn’t have volunteered to be the test subject.

It seemed her face really was beyond saving…

“Xiao Mei, you… a mirror, where’s a mirror, get one quickly!!”

“Hurry!! We need a mirror!”

“There’s none…”

“…Are you all idiots? Turn on the front camera of your phones!”

“Oh oh!!”

Immediately, an employee turned on the front camera and handed the phone to Xiao Mei.

When she saw her face on the screen, her expression changed instantly, and she let out a sharp scream, “Ah!!!”

Her sudden scream startled the employee who handed over the phone.

Because this girl’s voice was incredibly loud and piercing…

What followed was Xiao Mei’s loud sobbing…

These pimples and red spots had been with her since her school days.

No matter if it was volcanic mud, various facial cleansers, or hospital prescriptions, nothing had ever worked.

Until yesterday, she still hadn’t found a solution.

But after taking this Beauty Pill, her facial condition improved instantly.

Although Bai Gucheng had said that each person could only take one, and only the first one would be effective.

But for her… having more than half of her pimples and red spots gone was already enough, truly enough!

Xiao Mei couldn’t hold back her tears anymore and cried at the scene.

This moment was deeply engraved in everyone’s hearts.

Many people knew Xiao Mei’s situation; after graduation, she came here precisely to improve her skin condition.

And now this…

The effect was truly terrifying!

They stared at the remaining nine Beauty Pills, their eyes blazing like wolves, wishing they could snatch and eat them immediately.

Amidst the crowd’s shock, the general manager Deng Shu quickly called Bai Gucheng to report the situation regarding the Beauty Pill.

Deng Shu was naturally very excited and happy, just like everyone else in the company.

On Bai Gucheng’s side, he remained very calm, simply instructing them to continue development and mass production, and to launch the product at the appropriate time.

After all, Bai Gucheng had already taken the Beauty Pill himself and knew its effects, so his calmness was natural.

Still, he was very pleased. Once launched, this cosmetics company would soar like a rocket!

The stock price would also skyrocket soon!

…

Meanwhile, due to the Beauty Pill altering the plot, Su Chen was rewarded by the system with “God-Level Music Arrangement Ability.”

As expected, the rewards were always related to the next plot.

After all, in the upcoming plotline of Lin Xue’er’s Birthday Banquet, there would be a singing performance session.

Simply put, it was like celebrating a birthday at a karaoke party where everyone sang songs.

It wouldn’t seem out of place.

At that time, Bai Zihang would sing a mediocre song and be utterly crushed by Ye Xuan’s performance of a song called “Great Wind.”

Thus gaining the favor of the beauty, Lin Xue’er.

In short, the plot was pretty absurd.

Now, with his new music arrangement ability, Su Chen composed a song first — Jay Chou’s “Fireworks Cool Easily” — and uploaded it online.

But since his account was new, the platform gave it no exposure, so very few people listened to it.

Then, he composed another song for Bai Zihang, “Rice Aroma,” another hit from his previous life.

“If you lose to Ye Xuan even with this, I really have nothing more to say.”

Su Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He composed the song for Bai Zihang precisely so he could crush Ye Xuan.

And then shine brilliantly during the performance session.

He sent the song over to Bai Zihang.

Along with Bai Zihang’s astonishment, he also received a reward of 50,000,000 yuan.

(⁠｡⁠^⁠‿⁠^⁠｡⁠)

Honestly, being a lackey felt pretty great.

…

On the other side, after Yan Ruyue returned to Ye Xuan’s side, she helped him with a matter — purchasing a Jade Buddha.

She was given 100,000,000 yuan to pick a luxurious Jade Buddha.

Yan Ruyue also acted as an undercover agent and leaked a lot of information to Su Chen, and even received many “arrangements” from Su Chen…

Meanwhile, Ye Xuan was on the verge of exploding.

Over 100,000,000 yuan, after all!

If he had gotten that piece of Imperial Green jade at the Antique Street back then, he could’ve created something incredibly valuable.

At least worth 200,000,000 yuan.

“All because of that damned lackey!”

Ye Xuan was utterly hateful toward Su Chen!

If he hadn’t talked so much, Ye Xuan would have gotten that treasure!

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have to spend 100,000,000 yuan now to buy a Jade Buddha.

He wanted such an expensive gift to show off during Lin Xue’er’s Birthday Banquet.

To build a connection with the Lin family, one of Jiangcheng’s Eight Great Families.

If he could build that connection!

Ye Xuan gave a crooked smile, feeling very pleased with himself!

Moreover, he had heard that Lin Xue’er was a rare beauty, which made it even more worth it!

…

Meanwhile, on the street.

At noon, the heat was unbearable, making walking outside feel like entering a steam room.

A dejected figure wandered the streets like a ghost.

Upon closer inspection, it was none other than Lin Xian, who had just been fired!
