The Delicate Beauty Grabbed the Cannon Fodder Villain’s Script [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 31

When Jian Tao felt bored at home, he began his plan to seduce Lu Jingze. He knew that Lu Jingze would not pay attention to him without some form of benefit, so before sending any messages, he would always send a bank transfer first.

To be a sugar daddy, Jian Tao was determined to be a high-quality and generous one. After sending a ten thousand yuan transfer, he followed up with a message: “Send a selfie for me to see.”

A request as intimate as a selfie was something Lu Jingze would surely understand the purpose of. Jian Tao waited for a moment. To his surprise, there was no reply. Just as Jian Tao was about to send another transfer, a photo arrived. It appeared to have been taken just after a shower. Droplets of water still clung to Lu Jingze’s fair skin. His slender frame was not scrawny but composed of refined, lean muscle. The texture of his physique was supple and graceful, with his mermaid line disappearing beneath a tucked towel.

Jian Tao’s face turned bright red, even through the screen. Lu Jingze was certainly a man of action; if asked for a selfie, he truly delivered. This boy was serious about earning money. A message followed immediately: “Brother Tao, are you satisfied?”

Jian Tao’s face felt hot. In truth, he had only wanted a simple selfie, but Lu Jingze was far too literal. “Satisfied,” he replied.

“Do you want to see more?” Lu Jingze asked in another message.

Jian Tao’s finger hesitated over the screen. Personally, he did not want to look, but according to his character persona, he definitely would. Therefore, Jian Tao sent him another ten thousand yuan transfer with a single word: “Yes.”

Lu Jingze sent another one. This time, it was even more suggestive. Jian Tao did not even dare to click on it to take a closer look. Lu Jingze must have been desperate for money lately. Sensing it was a good opportunity, Jian Tao asked, “Are you working tonight?”

Lu Jingze replied almost instantly, “Yes. Brother Tao, are you coming?”

“Yes, I will go find you tonight,” Jian Tao replied.

After sending the message, Jian Tao set his phone aside and stretched. After being cooped up at home for several days, his body had fully recovered. It was time to go out and stir up some trouble. He spent the afternoon wandering around and drove directly to the bar in the evening. Fitting the scene perfectly, he parked a convertible Ferrari at the entrance. He entered using Jiang Chengli’s membership card. Last time, seeing that Jian Tao lacked a card, Jiang Chengli had given him one, which made things much easier this time.

Jiang Shi had been soaking himself in the bar for several days, getting dead drunk every night. Today, he sat in a booth again, gulping down alcohol. Beside him, Jiang Chengli could hardly stand to watch. If the bar owner had not called him repeatedly over the past few days, he would not have bothered to check if Jiang Shi was dead or alive.

Jiang Chengli snatched the wine glass away, but Jiang Shi immediately grabbed a new one and began drinking. Jiang Chengli clicked his tongue in annoyance. “Tell me, what is the point of this? When he was chasing you and sticking to you, you told him to get lost. Now that he has actually left, you are here playing the part of the devoted lover. Who are you putting on this show for? No one is watching.”

Jiang Shi’s face was full of hostility and his eyes were glazed. He did not say a word, allowing Jiang Chengli to scold him. “If you ask me, you are truly deserving of this. You had the nerve to say you were giving us a surprise. You gave yourself a surprise! You actually made me laugh; you are a total idiot.”

Jiang Chengli cursed at him ventingly. Usually, his public image was refined and easygoing, but he could not maintain that persona now. He was purely exasperated by Jiang Shi. If the situation had any other outcome, he might still have a chance, but with Jiang Mu involved, that chance dropped to zero. Whether in business or personal dealings, Jiang Mu was not called a terror for no reason. Jiang Chengli did not dare to provoke such a person.

“Fine, stop drinking. Are you trying to drink yourself to death?” Jiang Chengli snapped. He was also feeling gloomy. The thought that he might never see Jian Tao again made him want to kill Jiang Shi. Frustrated, he popped a strawberry flavored candy into his mouth.

The taste of strawberry filled his mouth. A second later, he caught a glimpse of a stunning figure among the shifting shadows of the crowd. Jiang Chengli rubbed his eyes, thinking he had misidentified the person. But when he looked again, it really was Jian Tao.

“Why is Jian Tao here?” Jiang Chengli blurted out.

Hearing that name, Jiang Shi looked over reflexively. He stood up abruptly and bolted before Jiang Chengli could react. Jiang Chengli chased after him but could not stop him. “What can you even do if you go over there? You should be calling him sister in law now, should you not?”

Jiang Shi rushed in front of Jian Tao and grabbed his wrist. His eyes widened as if he had a thousand words to say, but his mouth felt jammed, and he could not utter a single sentence. Jian Tao had been searching for Lu Jingze and was caught off guard by Jiang Shi’s sudden appearance. After a few seconds of shock, he immediately wrenched his hand away and delivered a resounding slap to Jiang Shi’s face. “How dare you show your face in front of me!”

For a moment, the surroundings seemed to fall silent. Everyone knew who the young master of the Jiang family was. To think someone dared to hit him; they must have had a death wish. However, when they saw who the assailant was, they all fell into a silent realization.

Jiang Shi was speechless for a long time. His eyes grew increasingly bloodshot and moist, and his lips trembled. “Jian Tao,” he whispered.

As Jiang Shi stepped forward to embrace him, Jian Tao immediately pushed him away. “Get lost! Do not touch me!”

“Jian Tao,” Jiang Shi took a deep breath before he felt he had the strength to speak. “I am sorry, Jian Tao. I did not mean for this to happen.”

“Heh,” Jian Tao crossed his arms and scrutinized the man before him. The plot had changed. Jian Tao was no longer Jiang Shi’s sycophant; he was now a blackened villain who intended to make everyone miserable. “What do you mean you did not mean for this to happen? You have been intending this all along,” Jian Tao mocked. “I think you should be very satisfied with this result. You planned this for a long time, did you not, Jiang Shi?”

“No, no,” Jiang Shi tried to explain urgently. “I regretted it! I clearly regretted it!”

“I am telling you, from now on, none of you will have a good life!” Jian Tao recited the classic villain line.

Jiang Shi gripped him tightly, desperate to prove something. “Jian Tao, come with me now. Let us leave together. It is still not too late.”

“Why would I go with you? I am doing very well now. Who would want to leave with you?” Jian Tao said. He felt Jiang Shi was acting strangely and wondered what kind of act this was. He felt the plot was slightly off; the way Su Wen and Jiang Shi reacted to the success of the plan was different from what he had imagined.

“You are lying! Do you not love me the most? I can really take you away. We can go together, anywhere!” Jiang Shi said. His intense gaze was somewhat terrifying as he waited desperately for Jian Tao’s answer.

Jian Tao pulled back his hand, which was aching from the grip. “Keep dreaming. I said it before: from now on, I will not let you have a good life, and you can forget about making me listen to you!”

Jiang Shi’s expression gradually distorted. He suddenly reached out to pull at Jian Tao’s clothes. “Did my brother do anything to you? It does not matter. We can make everything start over.”

Jian Tao gave him another slap. He felt that Jiang Shi was becoming somewhat manic. After the second slap, Jiang Shi finally seemed to calm down. Jian Tao glanced at the onlookers around them. His face was cold and somber. He looked at Jiang Shi again and asked coldly, “Are you really not coming with me?”

Jian Tao was completely unafraid. “That is right. What of it?”

A sneer appeared on Jiang Shi’s face. “Nothing much. Did you really think I could not live without you?”

Jian Tao remained silent, watching him quietly. Jiang Shi’s demeanor changed completely. He clicked his tongue. “So that is what you were thinking. Fine. I thought your recent performance was decent and wanted to take you out to play. Now it seems, never mind.”

“You are not wrong either. I designed the deception. It is not a bad deal for you to marry my brother. If you want to come find me later, that is fine too. I do not mind playing with something my brother has already used. That was my plan from the very beginning anyway.”

Jiang Chengli, who originally did not want to interfere, shook his head as he listened to Jiang Shi. “Jiang Shi, calm down.”

These words made Jian Tao’s head buzz with anger. Just then, a refreshing youthful voice sounded. Someone stood behind him and wrapped an arm around his shoulder. “Brother Tao, what is wrong?”

Jian Tao turned his head and saw Lu Jingze. His mood lightened immediately. “Just someone who makes me feel sick. Let us go. We can talk outside.”

“Okay!” Lu Jingze said obediently. He glanced at Jiang Shi’s distorted expression and gave him a smile.

After they left, Jiang Shi finally snapped out of his daze. He looked at Jiang Chengli blankly. “Who was that?”

“How should I know?” Jiang Chengli smacked his own forehead. “I am actually laughing because I am so angry at you. Jiang Shi, if you do not know how to speak, then do not speak at all.”

Jian Tao led Lu Jingze out and had him sit in his convertible sports car before stepping on the gas and driving away. His mood had been quite good, but Jiang Shi had ruined it. When he first saw Jiang Shi, he thought he could farm some hatred points, but the words were so foul that they actually hurt his feelings. Fortunately, the hatred points did increase, though they had somehow decreased earlier for reasons he did not understand, which meant he had not yet completed the task.

“Brother Tao, can I call you Brother Tao from now on?” Lu Jingze asked.

“Yes,” Jian Tao replied. Lu Jingze was much better; at least if you gave him money, he would greet you with a smile.

“Brother Tao, where are we going?” Lu Jingze asked with a smile, showing the dimples on his cheeks.

“You will know when we get there,” Jian Tao said.

Along the way, their hair was blown into a mess by the wind. Lu Jingze was very excited sitting in the car, shouting that he wanted to buy a sports car in the future as well. Jian Tao smiled and thought to himself that he would have all of these things in the future.

Eventually, Jian Tao parked the car at the entrance of a high end residential complex. After the car stopped, he did not get out. Instead, he turned around and went straight to the point to set the stage for the arrangement. “The grandmother who raised you is sick, right? So you are in desperate need of money now.”

Usually, a forced arrangement needed an excuse. The book stated that Lu Jingze was kept as a lover for this very reason. Surprise flashed in Lu Jingze’s eyes. “Brother Tao, how did you know?”

“Never mind how I know. I can make a deal with you now.” Jian Tao took on the persona of a benefactor. “I will buy you an apartment here and take care of you. I will give you one hundred thousand yuan a month. If you perform well, I can add more. Will you consider it?”

Lu Jingze froze for a moment. Then, a sharp light sparkled in his eyes. “There is no need to consider it, Brother Tao. I am willing!”

Jian Tao was momentarily silenced. He had expected to go back and forth for a few days, but the boy had agreed immediately and seemed quite happy. It seemed he really was desperate for money. While Jian Tao was dazed, Lu Jingze suddenly embraced him, burying his face in Jian Tao’s neck. “Brother Tao, I will definitely serve you well and make you satisfied so that you will keep me forever, right?”

Jian Tao cleared his throat. “Of course.”

Lu Jingze seemed very excited. He murmured, “Brother Tao, not only did you investigate me, but you also want to keep me. I am so happy.”

Jian Tao felt speechless. This boy had such a childish mindset. Did he not know it was easy to get a lower price if he acted like this? “Alright, get up,” Jian Tao said.

Lu Jingze rubbed against his neck and gave him a kiss. It made Jian Tao tremble and his face turn red, but he could not say much. He was the benefactor, after all, and he was supposed to be the one taking advantage of the other.

Just as he was about to speak, the phone in his pocket vibrated again. He realized he needed to get home quickly. “In that case, stop working at the bar. I will hire the best doctor for your grandmother, and I will handle the expenses. Additionally, I will transfer one hundred thousand yuan to your account every month, so you do not need to worry about money.”

Jian Tao was talking incessantly when Lu Jingze suddenly lunged at him, pinning him down and showering his face with kisses. It took a while for Jian Tao to struggle free and push him away. If Lu Jingze were a woman, Jian Tao would be covered in lipstick marks by now.

“What are you doing!” Jian Tao said crossly.

“Brother Tao, I am just too happy. You are the first person to ever be this good to me,” Lu Jingze said sincerely. His eyes were red, and tears were beginning to well up.

Jian Tao felt helpless. “Fine. This is what a benefactor should do. Now, take a taxi home. Send me your card number, and I will transfer the money to you later.”

“Okay!” Lu Jingze answered obediently and got out of the car. He tried to kiss Jian Tao again, but Jian Tao dodged it. “Just go home quickly.”

Jian Tao waved him off and drove away. When he reached the entrance of the villa, he checked his phone. Jiang Mu had actually called him dozens of times! That psychopath! Looking at the lit villa, he actually felt a bit afraid to enter. However, considering Jiang Mu usually followed his every whim, he thought missing a few calls might be fine.

When he entered the villa and returned to the room, he realized he was completely wrong. Jiang Mu’s face was terrifyingly grim. His pale, cold eyes were fixed directly on him. “Where did you go? Why did you not answer the phone?”

Jian Tao’s heart immediately leapt into his throat. Jiang Mu walked toward him. Jian Tao stammered, “I just went out for a walk.”

Jiang Mu walked up to him and suddenly leaned forward, sniffing the air around him. His expression grew even darker. “Why is there the scent of a man on you?”

Jiang Mu looked straight into Jian Tao’s eyes, scaring him so much that his legs felt weak. “I,” he started.

Jiang Mu’s brows furrowed. “It stinks.”

With that, he pulled Jian Tao into the bathroom. As Jiang Mu removed his clothes, Jian Tao’s tears began to fall like pearls. Sitting in the bathtub, Jian Tao’s shoulders were hunched. Beside him, Jiang Mu splashed water over him bit by bit. He did not dare use a towel on Jian Tao’s delicate skin. Jiang Mu did not forget to warn him, “Next time you go out, do not touch those men. They are disgusting.”

After Jian Tao left the bar, Jiang Shi became like a possessed man. He was like a frantic lion, unable to find an outlet for his frustration. In truth, he had regretted his words the moment Jian Tao left. He wished he could tear his own mouth off; he should not have said those things. In the middle of the night, he was rushing around the streets blindly, not knowing where to go. His body was fueled only by a burst of angry energy. If Jiang Chengli had not been watching over him, he might have collapsed under a car. Finally, as if reaching an epiphany, Jiang Shi hailed a taxi, left Jiang Chengli behind, and gave the driver an address.

The driver drove for over half an hour before stopping in front of a detached villa. Although it was a villa, the building itself was not visible because they were at the back of the estate. The yard appeared quite large. Jiang Shi climbed over the wall and skillfully navigated the backyard. He had lived here for over twenty years; he was intimately familiar with the locations of the cameras, the security patrols, and the blind spots where neither cameras nor guards could see.

Finally, he reached the villa itself. He stealthily climbed up to the second floor and stepped onto the terrace. He lightened his footsteps as he approached the window. The curtains blocked the view inside, but as he drew closer, he suddenly heard the rhythmic creaking of the bed frame and Jian Tao’s muffled sobs. At that moment, his entire body felt frozen. His mind went blank. His foot accidentally knocked over a flowerpot, and the sounds inside stopped instantly. After a moment, Jiang Mu’s raspy voice rang out, “Who is there? Come out now.”
