I Just Want to Spoil and Run Away with the Abused Female Lead [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 5

The White Moonlight vs. The Humble Substitute

Lin Shuangran’s breathing was unsteady, carrying a hint of panting, her gaze flowing like ripples. Shi Xingrao stared at her in a daze, suddenly understanding the term “peerless dancing enchantress.”

Her flushed face was almost unbearably beautiful, each breath she took making others’ breathing grow equally erratic.

Though she was merely dancing, it evoked thoughts of other blush-inducing, heart-racing words.

Shi Xingrao’s eyes darkened slightly as she silently complained to Cat Ears, “Can’t your Quick Transmigration Bureau choose a female lead who’s a little less captivating?”

“I wasn’t straight to begin with, and now I’m even more tempted to steal the dog male lead’s wife.”

Cat Ears fell silent for a moment before voicing suspicion, “Haven’t you already started stealing the dog male lead’s wife?”

Shi Xingrao: “…”

Shi Xingrao couldn’t tear her eyes away. She pointed to the damp strands of hair on Lin Shuangran’s forehead and said, “Sister, this part is wet.”

As she spoke, she handed over a handkerchief she had brought with her. “Sister, you can wipe it with this.”

Lin Shuangran didn’t hesitate and accepted the handkerchief, casually reminding Shi Xingrao, “Renren, I still need to practice some basic skills. If you’re bored, you can go out and play for a while.”

Shi Xingrao shook her head. “I’m not bored. Sister, your dancing is beautiful. I want to stay here and watch you for a while.”

Before continuing, Lin Shuangran’s phone buzzed several times. She took two minutes to check the messages from the other side.

The person messaging her was someone from the private room yesterday, a close friend.

[When did you get involved with Shi Xingrao? I thought you liked that scumbag Lu Ze. I was so scared!]

[By the way, that cold-faced, expressionless little girl of yours is no innocent little bunny.]

[But she does seem different around you. We teased her for ages yesterday, and she didn’t say a single word to us. Way better than that womanizer Lu Ze.]

Cold-faced, expressionless little girl? Thinking of Shi Xingrao’s obedient head-shaking earlier, Lin Shuangran’s lips curved into a smile.

[Lin Shuangran: She’s not expressionless.]

[Tsk tsk, already defending her? Looks like this little sister has you wrapped around her finger. Is she sweet? I’m thinking maybe I should find a little sister too?]

Lin Shuangran thought of the peach scent that lingered around her whenever Shi Xingren got close and, as if possessed, replied:

[Lin Shuangran: Renren is very sweet.]

While accompanying Lin Shuangran through her basic exercises, Shi Xingrao continued to learn more about the rules from the naive Cat Ears.

“Duoduo, there must be other ways to obtain cards besides drawing them, right?”

Cat Ears: “! Host, how did you know?”

Shi Xingrao gave Cat Ears a profound look. “Do you even know who I am? Someone as smart as me should know these things, right?”

In reality, what Shi Xingrao didn’t say was that it was all thanks to her gaming experience.

Shi Xingrao: “Tell me, are there other ways to get cards? Or is it because I don’t have the authority yet? Then tell me how to unlock the authority.”

Cat Ears: “Accumulate 1,000 emotional points from card draws to unlock the card exchange function. You can use unwanted cards plus a small amount of emotional points to exchange for the cards you need.”

Shi Xingrao: “…”

Isn’t this just encouraging card draws? Then why didn’t Cat Ears explain these rules from the start?

A suspicion arose in Shi Xingrao’s heart. “Did none of the hosts you guided before use 1,000 emotional points to draw cards?”

Cat Ears was even more astonished. “Host, how did you know?”

Because no one had ever reached this level before, the established rules had been completely neglected, and even the system had stopped explaining the full regulations to newcomers.

So now, she wanted more authority first, to use 810 emotional points for card draws, and second, to clear this world.

Currently, she had one five-star card, two four-star cards, and seventeen three-star cards.

Cat Ears asked, “Host, when are we going to farm Lu Ze’s emotional points?”

As soon as Cat Ears finished speaking, Shi Xingrao’s phone rang.

Shi Xingrao glanced at it and, as expected, it was Lu Ze. Unhurriedly, she silenced the ringtone. The phone rang several more times, and Shi Xingrao instructed Cat Ears to monitor Lu Ze’s emotional value, telling it to draw ten cards once it reached 100.

Cat Ears asked, “Host, even if you don’t answer Lu Ze’s calls, will his anger value still increase?”

“Shouldn’t you answer the call and curse at him, making him furious?”

Shi Xingrao propped her chin on her hand and continued watching Lin Shuangran stretch her legs. “No, I want to watch Lin Shuangran stretch.”

Cat Ears felt a bit disappointed, but when it saw the rapidly rising anger value in the background, it quickly started drawing cards while flooding Shi Xingrao’s mind with question marks.

Shi Xingrao felt that if she didn’t explain it to Cat Ears soon, her head would be filled with question marks.

“The original host was always submissive, obeying Lu Ze’s every word. Lu Ze believed he had absolute authority over her. Now that I’m not even answering his calls, Lu Ze feels like the pet he raised has completely gone out of control, so his emotions are spiraling too. By not answering, he can’t even vent his anger by yelling at me, so his rage just keeps building up.”

The system suddenly understood and happily exchanged 300 emotional points for cards.

Seeing that it was about time, Shi Xingrao blocked Lu Ze. His emotional value, which had just been exchanged, instantly shot up by 100.

In his office, Lu Ze was so angry his hands trembled. Shi Xingrao actually dared to ignore his calls and even blocked him.

Shi Xingrao was truly too audacious.

Lu Ze switched from calling to sending WeChat messages.

[Lu Ze: You’d better get back here right now.]

[Lu Ze: Shi Xingrao, don’t test my patience.]

[Lu Ze: If you don’t come back now, don’t blame me for blacklisting you in the industry. I can make sure you never get another acting role with just one word.]
