Quick Transmigration: Targeted by the Boss - Ch. 24

Lin Shen watched his somewhat aggressive departing figure and finally understood that <he> referred to Qin Yu.

He quickly nodded and replied.

“Oh, okay, I understand.”

Scratching his head, Lin Shen said he understood, but his mind was a mess.

Didn’t the CEO say it was just a cute little pet?

Then what did this mean now?

And to think he had admired the CEO just moments ago, saying how remarkable he was — someone who could let go so easily.

Even though he felt a bit disdainful of the CEO’s inconsistency, Lin Shen didn’t dare say anything to his face.

Su Qiao didn’t know when she had fallen asleep. Perhaps pretending to ignore Qin Yu’s unbearable presence was too tiring, and she dozed off in the process.

When she woke up again, it was almost dusk.

[Host, host, you’re finally awake!]

The moment 444 noticed her eyelashes fluttered, it knew she was waking up and called out excitedly.

‘What’s the matter?’

Su Qiao wasn’t fully awake yet and reflexively asked.

The initially excited 444 suddenly hesitated, as if remembering something.

It stammered.

[Uh? Nothing, just saying hi.]

Better not mention it, lest the host start killing people again.

It thought back to what happened after the host fell asleep — the terrifying Qin Mohan came in.

First, he scowled as he crumpled up the note Qin Yu had left on the bedside table and threw it in the trash can.

Then, he brought a basin of water and meticulously wiped her hands over and over, finger by finger, even cleaning under her nails.

444 wanted to cover its face.

As expected of an unpredictable villain, his bizarre behavior was beyond the understanding of ordinary people.

But…

Why did it feel a bit shy about it?

Su Qiao groggily opened her eyes and immediately saw the man sitting in a single chair by the window, reading some documents.

The setting sun cast its glow over the man, who was dressed in a deep blue shirt, as if cloaking him in a golden halo.

His already striking features became even more pronounced.

It was the first time Su Qiao had seriously observed this man.

Tall and upright, he was probably over 1.8 meters.

With sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, a high-bridged nose, and slightly thin but well-shaped lips, his skin had a healthy bronze tone.

His slightly cold and gloomy demeanor made people unconsciously hold their breath.

He certainly didn’t seem like a simple character. No wonder Xiao Si seemed to fear him.

‘Xiao Si, what do you mean by <main villain>?’

[In this world, the people with the highest destiny values are the male and female leads. Apart from them, only the main villain can rival them. If you want to quickly complete your mission, fulfill the original body’s wishes, and eliminate her resentment, you must borrow his destiny. Besides, if he dies, this dimension might collapse. No one knows what the outcome would be. Even if the dimension doesn’t collapse, with your cannon fodder-level destiny, you won’t stand a chance against the male lead and his allies without his help.]

‘So, he can’t die?’

Su Qiao narrowed her eyes, gazing at the man resting with his eyes closed.

She hadn’t expected him to be so important.

444 nodded vigorously, completely confident and certain.

[Right, not only can he not die, but you also have to stop him from blackening and destroying the world.]

‘Didn’t you say that completing the original body’s wishes and eliminating her resentment would count as finishing the mission?’

Why did it feel like she had fallen into a huge pit?

One she couldn’t climb out of?

444 blinked.

[But if this dimension collapses or is destroyed before you complete the mission, wouldn’t that still count as failure?]

Good point.

Su Qiao closed her eyes again.

“So, what should I do now?”

What should she do?

Even 444 felt unsure.

Fortunately, to ensure its host completed her task smoothly and to be an excellent system, it had recently studied this world’s knowledge and even read a lot of novels.
