The Comments Say I'm a Two-Faced Villain

The day she became bound to the Villain Development System, Meng Liuzheng achieved the ultimate goal of those who came before her:

She released the research institute's test subject, stole its top-secret files, and awakened the mastermind ahead of schedule.

Like Pandora opening the box, she was the starting point of the story, the woman readers hated with a burning passion.

The System said that to become a perfect villain, she had to be evil to the very end.

Meng Liuzheng nodded, then turned around and started working on her "side gig":

She brought the gravely wounded male lead home, treated his injuries, and took care of his food and lodging.

She carried the dying female doctor back through a blizzard and tended to her with the utmost care.

She cleared the obstacles for the protagonists before they could get to them.

Everything the protagonists did, she did too.

Even the mastermind couldn't figure out whose side she was on.

Only Meng Liuzheng knew her "perfect plan":

Put on the boss's secret identity and die at the protagonist's hands.

If you're going to be a villain, see it through. Even your death should be worthwhile.

Just as everyone thought the villain had been defeated and the story had reached its happy ending, the comments exploded:

[Wait! Where's my Liuzheng???]

[Waaah, why did Meng Liuzheng have to die?!]

[She wronged the whole world, but she never wronged you protagonists!]

At the same time, the protagonists were frantically searching for her.

The person who took him home.

The person who carried her out of the snowy wilderness.

The person who slew their every enemy, then died in someone else's place.

What they didn't know was this:

In a small town no one knew about, someone had finally found the life she'd always dreamed of.

One person, one home, no ties to anyone.

Until one ordinary afternoon, with the sun shining warmly, someone gently knocked on her courtyard gate.
