The Villain Spoiled the Female Leads Too Much, Isn’t It Only Natural They Fell? - Chapter 31:
Chapter 31:
In the Primordial Holy Land, within the inner sect, at a quiet pavilion.
Bai Lian’er frowned and said, “Young Master Ye, I went through so much trouble to finally arrange for Wan’er to come out. How confident are you that you can make her trust us again?”
Ye Bufan smiled confidently and said, “At least eighty percent. Wan’er has always been a girl who appears strong on the outside but is soft inside, so we absolutely cannot force her. Only by letting her see that we are truly helping her with no thought of repayment will we be able to win her trust. Once she trusts us, we can slowly persuade her to stay away from Gu Yun.”
Bai Lian’er nodded, showing she agreed with his reasoning. But she still asked, “Then what can you do for Wan’er? Gu Yun now takes care of her in every possible way. Whatever she wants, she gets. Would she even care about what you can offer?”
Ye Bufan gave a proud smile and said, “When she arrives, you’ll understand.”
His biggest reliance was on what his master, Luo Wushang, had told him—Su Wan’er carried a hidden injury. As long as he sincerely apologized to her, offered to treat her without asking anything in return, and finally showed a pitiful side, Su Wan’er would definitely soften. Even if she didn’t change her feelings immediately, at least it would overturn her previous bad impression of him. That way, he would still have a chance to win her favor again.
While he was still imagining this future, a figure appeared in the distance.
Ye Bufan immediately stood up, somewhat excited, and said, “Senior Sister Su!”
Su Wan’er frowned at once. Her cold eyes turned to Bai Lian’er as she said, “Bai Lian’er, I treated you as a friend, and this is how you repay me? Last time, without my permission, you went to test Gu Yun. And this time, you tricked me into coming here just to meet this scum? I’m too disappointed in you.”
With that, Su Wan’er turned to leave.
Yesterday, if Bai Lian’er hadn’t cried bitterly, apologizing and saying she had only meant well, that she hadn’t deliberately tried to seduce Gu Yun, Su Wan’er would never have softened and agreed to come today. But she never expected that what Bai Lian’er called a “small gathering between sisters” would include Ye Bufan. Whatever Bai Lian’er’s intentions were, Su Wan’er only felt she had been deceived once again. Gu Yun was right—this woman was scheming and never truly treated her as a friend.
Seeing Su Wan’er about to leave, Bai Lian’er panicked and quickly rushed to block her. She explained anxiously, “Wan’er, please listen to my explanation. Not telling you in advance that Ye Bufan would be here, that was my fault. But he said he had something very important to tell you, something that could even concern your life. I knew you wouldn’t come if I told you directly, so I lied. Even if you still don’t believe me, hearing him out won’t cost you anything, will it?”
Bai Lian’er’s eyes were filled with grievance and helplessness. As she spoke, her eyes even turned red, as though she was truly thinking only of Su Wan’er’s good.
Su Wan’er wavered slightly, wondering if she had misunderstood her. But when she remembered all the things Ye Bufan had done, she quickly hardened her heart again and coldly said, “Fine, I want to hear what this scum can say that supposedly threatens my life.”
She turned her eyes to Ye Bufan with disdain. If he dared to try stirring up trouble again or slander Gu Yun, she would not hesitate to strike.
Hearing this, Bai Lian’er secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Ye Bufan, giving him a look that it was his turn to act.
Unexpectedly, Ye Bufan didn’t say a word. Instead, he suddenly struck himself three times in the chest.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He directly vomited blood and half-knelt on the ground.
Not only Su Wan’er but even Bai Lian’er was stunned.
What was going on?
Su Wan’er quickly recovered and coldly said, “What, trying to play a self-pity trick? Don’t act in front of me. I’m not fooled.”
Ye Bufan gave a bitter laugh, not even wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said sincerely, “Senior Sister Su, I admit that before, in order to create conflict between you and the Holy Son, I said many things to slander him. I also admit that I once admired Chen Qingling but later abandoned her. But all of this was because I liked you too much, and it drove me mad. Of course, I know I was wrong, so today I punished myself with three palms as an apology. If you’re still angry, strike me now, and I won’t complain.”
With that, he closed his eyes, looking as if he was ready for her to kill him.
Bai Lian’er couldn’t help admiring him. Ye Bufan was truly ruthless, willing to go this far just to regain Su Wan’er’s goodwill.
Su Wan’er sighed lightly when she saw his sincerity. She thought he really wanted to change. Her voice softened as she said, “From today on, if you truly change your ways and act properly, I can let go of the past.”
Ye Bufan was overjoyed. As expected, Su Wan’er was still easy to fool. His plan had already succeeded halfway.
He immediately said, “Senior Sister Su, don’t worry, I’ll definitely change. From now on, I’ll never have improper thoughts about you again, only wish you and the Holy Son well.”
Hearing this, Su Wan’er’s guard lowered considerably. She nodded and asked, “Good. So what is this important matter you said you wanted to tell me?”
Ye Bufan smiled smugly and said, “When I sparred with Senior Sister Su before, I noticed you had a hidden injury. If it isn’t treated in time, it could become your fatal weakness in the future.”
Su Wan’er froze. A hidden injury? Hadn’t Gu Yun already helped her solve one? She frowned slightly and asked again, “Are you sure I still have a hidden injury?”
Ye Bufan nodded without hesitation and said, “Of course. Not to boast, but even inner sect elders might not notice this. But don’t worry, Senior Sister Su, I can help you heal it, and I don’t want anything in return. I only wish to make up for the harm I’ve caused you.”
Seeing how earnest and sincere he looked, Su Wan’er finally dropped her guard completely and said, “Fine. If you really think that way, then we can still remain friends.”
Ye Bufan was ecstatic. It worked! The plan had succeeded! As long as he had more chances to interact with Su Wan’er, he was confident he could drive a wedge between her and Gu Yun. After all, he was good at playing these manipulative games.
He immediately said, “Good. Then I’ll treat Senior Sister Su’s injury right now.”
He focused on Su Wan’er’s left shoulder, gathering a surge of true spiritual energy into his palm. His master had said that if he used external force to disperse the blockage in her left shoulder, the hidden injury would heal.
How simple could it be? Just one palm strike should do it.
