LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 2: Inexplicably joining the villain's camp
—“Shit, fifty yuan, system are you sure it’s an equivalent deal?”
【Host, this is not freshly drawn blood. Nothing useful scrap, fifty yuan is even more than a given. If the host does not want to, you can terminate the transaction】
“Trade trade trade, trade immediately.”
He didn’t want to make money by trading blood on the ground. He just wanted to remove the trouble.
After cleaning up the puddle of blood and earning fifty yuan, he had honestly earned more than enough.
“System, if I go to the supermarket, can I trade something from the supermarket?”
【The prerequisite for trading is that the stuff is yours. You pay for it and trade it, or you steal it from the supermarket】
After spending half an hour, Chen Luo learned more about the system specifically.
Although there was only one ability, equivalence trading, the system’s ability was truly awesome, as long as he could think of something, paying enough to trade over it.
Transcendent power, life-span, knowledge, all these things that could not be bought with money, were all tradable here in the system.
Even a ten-billionaire could not purchase a life span, but Chen Luo was able to trade it in the system.
“System, give me a bowl of hot and sour noodles for fifty yuan, and a larger quantity.”
The fifty yuan he had just obtained in his pocket disappeared, and a bowl of hot and sour noodles appeared in front of Chen Luo.
“Other than that, this system is really convenient, I can skip going to supermarkets and restaurants in the future.”
After eating this bowl of sour and delicious hot and sour noodles, Chen Luo laid down on the sofa in satisfaction.
After a day of adaptation, Chen Luo had sort of adjusted his mind and completely accepted the fact of crossing over.
To be honest, crossing over was not necessarily a bad thing.
The next day, Chen Luo dressed up a little and then changed into a black suit, a suit he had just traded out of the system at a cost of two thousand Yuan.
“Tsk, still so handsome.” Chen Luo looked in the mirror.
It wasn’t that he was narcissistic. The face aspect was indeed his greatest pride, in the previous world. There were quite a few women who wanted to marry him, but Chen Luo refused them all.
It wasn’t that Chen Luo was so noble and didn’t care to eat soft rice. It was mainly because those rich women who wanted to have him as a partner had looks and figures that were hard to describe.
Just as he walked out of the room, his mobile phone rang.
“Hello, is there something wrong with Sister Li?”
“Chen Luo, hurry up and come to the office, Mrs. Zhao wants to see you. Mind you, our Mrs. Zhao is not very good-tempered, you may be fired if you come late.”
“Okay, on my way, I’ll be there right away.”
Hanging up the phone, Chen Luo had soy milk in his hand and a doughnut in his mouth.
“It’s too late to take the bus, looks like I’ll have to take a taxi.”
Using his mobile phone, he called a taxi, and twenty minutes later, arrived at the company, where Sister Li, who had called Chen Luo at the entrance, was already waiting.
“You are finally here, you are really good at making Mrs. Zhao wait for you for twenty minutes.”
Sister Li looked at Chen Luo with a bit of a complaint.
“How did I know that Mrs. Zhao would come so early.”
Chen Luo innocently shrugged his shoulders.
“Alright, cut the crap and hurry up with me upstairs.”
Following Sister Li quickly to the general manager’s office, Sister Li gestured for Chen Luo to knock on the door.
“Chen Luo, it’s up to you whether you can be hired to stay or not.” Sister Li said in a low voice towards Chen Luo.
“Come in.”
A female voice with a bit of a seductive tone came from inside, and Chen Luo pushed the door open and walked in.
The office was spacious enough, much bigger than the one-room doghouse he had rented, and Chen Luo’s gaze turned and set on his boss, Mrs. Zhao.
Brownish-red hair, superb facial features, ripe female temperament. The top button of the white shirt was not buttoned up, and you could see the delicate collarbone.
Looking further down, the shirt was of such good quality that it didn’t actually hold up.
The eyes met Chen Luo’s between the eyes, delicate, and provocative.
‘Holy shit, this woman is a Succubus.’ Chen Luo said secretly in his heart.
Am I going to be a bodyguard for her in the future? It felt like a pretty sweet deal.
Zhao Yingxuan stood up and circled around Chen Luo twice. Chen Luo’s eyes unconsciously rested on her. There was no choice. She was too attractive.
The tall figure and long legs made Chen Luo dizzy.
Zhao Yingxuan’s hand rested on Chen Luo’s shoulder, her body slightly close to Chen Luo, attached to Chen Luo’s ear, and whispered.
“I am very satisfied with you, you can work for me from now on, with a monthly salary of thirty thousand, what do you think?”
“Very satisfied.”
Gulp gulped, it wasn’t that Chen Luo was indisputable, it was really because this woman was too tempting, and it was as if she was deliberately teasing him.
“That’s good, then let’s sign the contract first.”
Looking at the contract placed in front of him, Chen Luo calmed down and didn’t get tempted by beauty and signed it as soon as his mind got heated.
After a careful look, there were no pitiful clauses, and then Chen Luo signed it.
He was quite satisfied with the job, as the salary that was originally promised to be only 12,000 rose to 30,000, and the employer was a big beauty.
【Ding, remind the host that the world you crossed is not an ordinary world. It is a world that incorporates the plot of a , and your current identity as the host is the villain’s bodyguard】
Chen Luo’s expression immediately stiffened.
‘System what did you just say?’
【Currently this world has fused with the plot of “King of Huadu”, the woman in front of the host is the female heroine’s stepmother, the villain of the plot, as her bodyguard you also join the villain’s camp, or a small fry among the villains】
【According to your destiny, your future will be miserable. That’s why the system specially reminds you, please try your best to change your destiny】
Chen Luo’s mind was a bit confused. I’ve become a villain now? Fortunately, after the previous crossing, his ability to accept things had increased significantly.
‘King of Huadu’, I haven’t even read it, can you tell me the plot?’
【The host didn’t think you could get it for free, did you? The host needs to trade with the system to get the plot, and also reminding the host, in the real world, the so-called plot may not be reliable】
‘This dog system, remind me earlier I will die, somehow joined the villain’s camp, who can I find to reason with?’
Chen Luo cursed in his heart.
Pulling a sour face, Chen Luo looked at Zhao Yingxuan, an enchanting woman who didn’t feel as fragrant either anymore.
“Mrs. Zhao, I suddenly feel that I am not qualified for the profession of bodyguard, I don’t even have a bodyguard’s license, I can’t even beat the old and the sick, I am just a useless person, I am ashamed to accept this money, let’s not.”
Thirty-six plans are the best way to go. You can give up the darkness and turn to the light. Becoming a bodyguard for the female protagonist, sounds more interesting, and Isn’t it usually the male lead who is the bodyguard for the heroine? Maybe I can counterattack and become the protagonist that way. (Notes: The Thirty-Six Stratagems is a Chinese essay used to illustrate a series of stratagems used in politics, war, and civil interaction.)
The system is a good template for a protagonist, so why should he be a villain? I’m not convinced.
Even if he couldn’t be the bodyguard of the female lead, he couldn’t stay here as a villain’ s minion, it was an insult to his dignity.
Zhao Yingxuan froze.
He was fine just now. Why did he suddenly change his face and want to quit and run away?
‘To be seen by me, and you still think of wanting to escape from my palm.’
Zhao Yingxuan’s gaze was fixed on Chen Luo, as if she wanted to eat him.
“Is it because you think the money is too less? It doesn’t matter, there is one million in this card, the password is six zeros, take it and spend it.”
Seeing the bank card in front of him, Chen Luo gulped for a moment. It was a million dollars. It was really not a small amount of money for the poor Chen Luo.
The key was that after having the money, with the system’s ability, there were so many things he could do.
