1: Traveling through time and space to become the villain at the beginning?

“Chen Tianming, I’ve told you many times!”

“I, Zhao Xuexuan, don’t like you!”

“Please don’t come to my company to harass me again!”

Modu.

Below the Galaxy Group building.

A stunning woman with fair skin and porcelain-like features stood with her arms crossed, looking at the handsome man in front of her with a look of disgust.

Her delicate brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes were like cold, deep pools, devoid of any warmth.

Zhao Xuexuan’s voice was loud as she publicly rejected Chen Tianming, who was holding ninety-nine roses, at the entrance of the Galaxy Group.

Her words were extremely harsh, and her eyes were full of impatience.

In fact, it wasn't the first time Zhao Xuexuan had rejected Chen Tianming.

However, each time he was rejected, Chen Tianming would be very disheartened at the moment.

But it wouldn’t be long before he would rally and once again come to the Galaxy Group entrance to publicly confess his feelings.

Over time, the surrounding crowd had grown accustomed to it.

Seeing Chen Tianming rejected again this time.

They all watched like it was a show, whispering quietly to each other.

“How many times has Chen Shao failed in his confession?”

“I can’t remember, at least twenty or thirty times. If it were me, I would have given up long ago!”

“Speaking of which, Chen Shao’s looks are comparable to a celebrity’s, and he’s the eldest son of the world’s number one family, and he only likes President Chen. Why won’t she agree?”

“Who knows?”

“Perhaps this is ‘the one who is loved is always fearless’?”

“If Chen Shao were willing to confess to me publicly, I would definitely agree.”

“Stop dreaming. Chen Shao is pursuing a goddess of President Zhao’s caliber. How could he possibly fancy you?”

“……”

As everyone was discussing animatedly.

On the other side.

Chen Tianming stood rooted to the spot, looking dazed.

He looked around blankly, feeling a little dizzy in his head.

“What is this place?”

He remembered that just a moment ago, he was playing a game in his small rental apartment.

Engaging in heated arguments with his teammates!

The next second, his vision suddenly went black.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the middle of a crowd.

He was also holding a bouquet of roses in his hand.

Chen Tianming’s confusion didn’t last long.

A strange memory was forcibly inserted into his mind.

After he finished digesting all of the original host’s memories.

He finally understood what had happened to him.

“I transmigrated!” Chen Tianming was a little shocked.

He had heard of people transmigrating after being hit by a dump truck.

But transmigrating while playing games in bed, like him.

He had never seen it before.

“However, transmigrating from a jobless, ordinary university graduate with no skills to a rich second generation, seems pretty good, right?”

As Chen Tianming digested the original host’s memories, his thoughts involuntarily began to wander.

“Ding! Host detected, loading suitable system…”

“Detecting host’s current status, Child of Destiny Villain System activated successfully!”

“Holy crap! A system?”

Chen Tianming, who suddenly heard a voice in his head, was startled at first!

However, as an avid web novel reader.

After hearing it clearly, he quickly reacted, and then his heart was filled with wild joy!

He quickly thought to himself:

“System, introduce your functions!”

“This system is called the Child of Destiny Villain System!”

“It aims to help the host contend against the child of destiny and conquer the Female Lead!”

“As long as the host successfully strikes the child of destiny and brings the Female Lead into the Villain Family, you can obtain Devil's Value!”

“Devil's Value can be used for system lottery draws!”

“Detecting host’s first system binding, novice mission has now been activated!”

“Change the current simp plot progression to receive a novice gift package!”

“Wait, you mean I’m the villain?” Chen Tianming was stunned.

“That’s right!”

Chen Tianming frowned slightly.

He had originally thought he was the protagonist, but he didn’t expect to have transmigrated into a villain.

This made him, who usually read novels about protagonists slapping faces and showing off, a little unaccustomed to it.

However, Chen Tianming quickly became relieved.

He had a system, what was there to be afraid of?

Thinking of this, he glanced at the Female Lead marker above Zhao Xuexuan’s head.

He saw that Zhao Xuexuan’s favorability towards him was indeed a big fat zero!

According to his memories, he had confessed more than twenty times.

He had also given countless gifts.

He didn’t expect to have zero favorability even now.

This made him somewhat speechless.

Even if you feed a stray dog a few times.

When you see it again, it will at least wag its tail at you.

But the investment in the Female Lead Zhao Xuexuan.

It was even worse than throwing money into the water.

You couldn’t even hear a splash.

Moreover, as the eldest son of the world’s number one family.

How noble was his status?

However, when facing Zhao Xuexuan.

He acted as if he had been cursed.

Turning into a simp with no bottom line!

He didn’t feel anything when he was in the protagonist’s perspective before.

Now that he had truly become a villain.

Standing on the villain’s side.

He only now realized how outrageous the author’s original setting was!

Chen Tianming certainly didn’t want to remain a simp after transmigrating.

He immediately threw the roses in his hand into the trash can.

Looking at Zhao Xuexuan’s beautiful face, he said indifferently:

“Alright, since Miss Zhao dislikes me so much, from now on, I will no longer come looking for you.”

“At the same time, to express my sincerity, all cooperation between the Zhao family and the Chen family will cease. From now on, we will have no further dealings.”

The noisy discussions among the onlookers came to an abrupt halt.

Their gazes towards Chen Tianming, which had originally been playful or sympathetic, now turned into complete shock!

As if they were seeing him for the first time!

The previous whispers first paused, then grew several times louder!

“Holy crap! What’s going on?”

“I think it’s because Zhao Xuexuan kept refusing Chen Shao, and he’s completely disheartened now?”

“Chen Shao said he’s terminating all cooperation with the Zhao family, it seems he’s not joking!”

“The reason the Zhao family could rise from a second-rate family to one of the Modu Four Great Families was entirely because of the Chen family. Now that Chen Tianming is terminating cooperation, hiss…”

“……”

Everyone exchanged glances.

A thought flashed through their minds simultaneously.

—Something big is going to happen to the Zhao family!

Zhao Xuexuan, however, didn’t feel anything.

To her.

Chen Tianming was just an annoying simp.

She had naturally never taken the simp’s efforts seriously.

So she naturally didn’t know what impact the Chen family’s termination of cooperation would have on the Zhao family.

Now that Chen Tianming said he wanted to terminate cooperation.

Zhao Xuexuan’s first reaction was surprise!

“Are you serious?” she couldn’t help but confirm.

“Of course, I can guarantee it with the Chen family’s reputation.” Chen Tianming’s expression was a half-smile.

“However… before that, I wonder if Miss Zhao could return the ‘Spirit of the Night’ necklace I gave you earlier?”

The onlookers were once again startled by his words!

“The Spirit of the Night, is that the necklace crafted by thirteen renowned masters over ten years, with only one in the world?”

“I heard that necklace fetched a super high price of three billion dollars at the time!”

“It was eventually bought by a mysterious wealthy man at an auction. I didn’t expect that person to be Chen Shao!”

“Just this one necklace is equivalent to two-thirds of the entire Zhao family’s assets, right?”

“I didn’t expect Zhao Xuexuan to outwardly refuse Chen Shao, but secretly she even wore the gift he gave her.”

“Tsk tsk, truly both playing the victim and being a hypocrite…”

“……”

Zhao Xuexuan also didn’t expect that the gift she had casually accepted would be of such value.

She was slightly stunned.

Then, listening to the increasingly harsh whispers around her, her face turned red.

At the same time, her heart was filled with grievance!

It was clearly Chen Tianming who voluntarily gave it to her, she didn’t ask for it, so what did it have to do with her?

And now that Chen Tianming was asking for a gift he had given to someone else back, why was no one criticizing him?

Even if she didn’t agree to Chen Tianming but accepted the gift, there was a slight impropriety.

However, putting aside the facts, taking a step back, as a man, wasn’t Chen Tianming even a little bit wrong for publicly humiliating her?

Zhao Xuexuan was very conflicted and somewhat reluctant to return it.

However, listening to the increasingly grating remarks from the people around her, she finally couldn’t withstand the pressure.

“You… I’ll return it to you, who cares about your broken necklace?”

Zhao Xuexuan suddenly unclasped the necklace from her neck and threw it to Chen Tianming!

Chen Tianming reached out and caught it in mid-air.

Almost the instant Chen Tianming caught the necklace.

The system’s prompt sounded in his mind!

“Congratulations, Host, on completing the novice mission!”

“Congratulations, Host, on receiving the novice gift package!”
