[Clear-Headed Pseudo-Sentimentality Crusher VS Violent Jealous Type Who Loves Cuddling His Wife]

After transmigrating into a book, Wei Qingkui, an expert at fighting back against emotional manipulation, became a minor cannon-fodder character in a tragic romance.

In the book, the lovesick heroine was the most promising senior disciple in her sect, with the best chance of ascending. But after meeting a scumbag, she endured endless torment and humiliation, and ultimately died a gruesome death, abandoned by everyone.

After reading it, Wei Qingkui felt her vision go dark. “You’re a rich, beautiful heroine with a brilliant future! What kind of love potion did that scumbag feed you?!”

So she tore up the script and accepted the System’s mission to save the lovesick heroine.

Every last one of those manipulative scumbags can just die!!!

*

After becoming best friends with the lovesick heroine, Wei Qingkui transformed into a Saint Seiya warrior against emotional manipulation.

Whenever love made the heroine lose her head, Wei Qingkui would show up with a bucket of cold water!

The lovesick heroine sobbed, “I feel so sorry for him. I want to save him.”

Wei Qingkui: “Hold it! Feeling sorry for men brings misfortune, and trying to save them brings ten thousand years of bad luck!”

Eventually, the heroine came to her senses, killed the scumbag with her own hands, and devoted herself to her career.

Wei Qingkui nodded with satisfaction. “If there’s even one lovesick fool left anywhere in the world, then I lose!”

A certain great demon lord: “What about a lovesick man?”

As the ruler of the demon realm, Baili Hanyu was born cold and violent, and had never experienced so much as a hint of warmth.

The day he went mad while cultivating, all kinds of vermin descended on the demon capital and slit his throat while he was out of his mind.

As he lay dying, a woman in red crouched down and tapped his head. “Hey, great demon lord, come home with me!”

When he woke again, he had been reborn, but he searched all three realms and couldn’t find her.

Then he met a silly woman who pointed at her mount, a Kunpeng, and said, “The Kunpeng is so huge, one pot won’t be enough to stew it~ Bring two more barbecue grills~”

Kunpeng: ...Have you no manners?

Ye Zhaozun is sick. Seriously sick!

As the president of a biotech company, he has been allergic to emotions since childhood. Whenever he senses someone’s intense affection, his entire body aches unbearably, and there’s no cure! Until he meets a woman who... smacks him right on the head!

Hah, how dare she?!

The bionic human Tang Xingchen has traveled back from a cybernetic future to 2024. The moment she opens her eyes, she finds she’s become the future bionic big shot’s... most hated assistant?

Main mission: To stop the first-generation bionic humans from being destroyed, trick the president into saying, “Model 0195, you’re fired.”

Support skill: Her cybernetic eye can see the boss’s charm rating.

Tang Xingchen: Don’t even think about showing off your CEO charm. If you strut your stuff, I’ll pluck your feathers. Hurry up and fire me!

At the company annual party, CEO Ye Zhaozun was basking in the adoring gazes of the crowd. As his charm rating soared, he was also writhing in agony.

Tang Xingchen grabbed a bucket of filthy toilet water and dumped it over the CEO’s head. Splash!

“Sorry, boss. Please fire me.”

“You!” Ye Zhaozun was about to explode, but then realized his body had stopped hurting. Overjoyed, he cried, “Excellent! Promotion! Raise!”

Tang Xingchen: O.O? Is this guy into being mistreated?

After the mission failed, the future AI adjusted Tang Xingchen’s strategy in her mind: [A promotion will let you change the boss’s charm rating!]

Entry-level employee: Link to the boss’s charm and lower the average of your two ratings.

Mid-level employee: Round off the boss’s charm rating with a single tap.

Senior employee: Change the preferences of whoever provides the charm rating.

Tang Xingchen was practically thrilled. “Torture him! If I don’t torture him to death, I’ll torture him half to death!”

The CEO serves food, I spin the table. The CEO opens the door, I get in the car. The CEO starts a meeting, I pull the plug... I’m great at defying my superiors, hehe!

But later, things started taking a strange turn. Tang Xingchen stared blankly at the name badge in her hand that read “Second-in-Command of the Company.”

“It’s over. The mission failed. I’ll be going back soon.”

Bang! Before she could finish speaking, Ye Zhaozun suddenly burst through the door.

“Hey, can you... um...” Ye Zhaozun actually stumbled over his words. “I don’t care! You’re not leaving!!! Hmph!”

Tang Xingchen: ...Wait!

Had the mission somehow taken an unexpected turn she couldn’t describe or explain...?
