Chapter 5 — After Seeing Bullet Mac, I Immediately Took The Male Lead As My Own
In the past, I really loved money, so I wouldn't have dared to bet on someone like Tham Ky Bach—it was too risky. But now I know the whole scenario, I don't need to risk my life anymore, nor do I need to bet on my future. Because I know well—in the end, the winner will be me. So, I responded to him word by word: "Manh, it seems you are wrong." "Everything I do now has nothing to do with you anymore. Tham Ky Bach and I are already together, he is my boyfriend." Manh Canh Ngon looked at me stunned, his lips trembling slightly, unable to hide his emotions. He is angry. Although I don't know what it was for. “Wen Shu Yan.” “I gave you a chance before, but you didn't know how to appreciate it.” “It's time for me to be with someone else, until then—don't regret it.” 12 As soon as he finished speaking, Lam Vi immediately ran in. “A Ngon, I told you to go back and get your coat for me, have you found it yet?” As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that in the room, besides Manh Canh Ngon, there were also me and Tham Ky Bach. As soon as he saw Lam Vi, Manh Canh Ngon's eyes immediately turned to me, as if he had just made some decision. "Lam Vi, you keep hanging around me like this because you like me, right?" Lam Vi didn't understand why the person who had pretended to be naive like Manh Canh Ngon suddenly spoke so frankly today, but still nodded slightly and awkwardly. Receiving confirmation, he turned to look at me: "If you like me, then I agree to let you be my girlfriend." Lam Vi was stunned, then burst into tears of joy. She rushed into Manh Canh Ngon's arms, her eyes red with excitement. The scene in front of me suddenly coincided with the video that Manh Canh Ngon's friends once sent me. It turns out, the girl in the video is her. Now… she was satisfied. I turned my head and saw Tham Ky Bach's eyes looking at me—quietly, bewildered. 13 Although Manh Canh Ngon was with Lam Vi, he did not feel happy. This is not the outcome he wanted. What he expected was that Wen Shu Yan would be jealous, would coddle him, and would cry and ask him for forgiveness. But now… everything is ruined. Wen Shuyan seems to really no longer love him. Even though he knew she didn't love him before, she only cared about his money. But at least at that time, in her eyes, she only had him, considering him the whole world, surrounding him every day. But why did they become like this? It's because after the angry breakup, his friends told him that he shouldn't pamper his girlfriend too much. So he kept waiting for Wen Shu Dien to apologize, waiting for her to humble himself, waiting for her to ask to come back. But what he got was the scene of her accepting another guy's confession right in front of the soccer field gate. Close friends comforted her, saying that a girl like Wen Shu Dien, who was so greedy for money, could not be sincere with a poor scholar. She did that just to make him angry, otherwise she wouldn't have intentionally performed right at the soccer field - the place he frequents the most. He felt it was right, so he pretended to be indifferent, every day he either went to play football or went to the bar with his friends. During the time Wen Thu Dien disappeared, his classmate Lam Vi always followed him. He knew she had feelings for him, but he wasn't interested at all. Her friends said that Lam Vi was also pretty and good at understanding psychology, so they let her follow. He also did not refuse Her approach was just to make Wen Thu Dien jealous. He believes that sooner or later, the things with Lam Vi will reach Wen Thu Dien's ears through the mouths of those other friends. He thought—she would come back to him. But the more he waited, the more angry he received the news that made him suffocate. Today, Tham Ky Bach tutored her in studying, tomorrow she brought him lunch. The two of them even... drank a glass of milk tea together! I don't believe it. He understands Wen Shu Yan too well. Until she saw with her own eyes that she secretly loaded 500 yuan into Tham Ky Bach's meal card. His heart felt like it was falling into the abyss. He knew that Wen Shu Yan's family conditions were not bad, but her parents favored men over women, so her life was not easy. It was also because she was not loved that she wanted money and wanted to quickly save money herself to escape that messy family. That's also the reason why she clung to him and didn't let go. A girl who used to be so stingy that she criticized milk tea for being expensive and demanded a refund for everything she bought for him, but now she's willing to spend money on a poor student. This discovery made his heart clench. He felt like something was slowly slipping out of his hand. The feeling of being unable to grasp and control makes him frustrated and uncomfortable. That day, everyone agreed to go out after school. When I got to the school gate, I saw Lam Vi, and my friends immediately called her to come along. Lam Vi hugged his arm, pretending to be awkward: "I forgot my jacket in class..." The intention was so clear, everyone looked towards Manh Canh Ngon with dark eyes. But he didn't show any intention of giving her the shirt, on the contrary, he zipped up the shirt, pretending not to understand: "Everyone wait here, I'll go to class to get it for you." After saying that, he turned around and left, no matter what his friends called him, he didn't turn back. He had just seen a new post on the school forum—saying that Tham Ky Bach was tutoring Wen Shu Yan in class. He was trying to find an excuse to return, but Lam Vi just in time gave him a ladder to climb. He wanted to give Wen Shu Yan another chance. But when he returned, the scene he saw was Wen Shu Dien planning to... kiss Tham Ky Bach. At that moment, he completely couldn't bear it anymore. He told her—if she didn't bow her head this time, he would really be with someone else. Even when she cries and begs, he won't turn back.
