Quick Wear: Why did the male protagonist fall in love with the vicious villain again?

"Have you heard? The Zhou family is finished!"

"When did it happen? Didn't I see someone from the Zhou family at the banquet a few days ago?"

"I know, I know. I heard that the boss of the Zhou family committed suicide by jumping off a building. His son is still in the police station. Could it be related to his son?"

"No, why did I hear that Zhou Yunyu has been released?"

Ye Yunqing paused as he picked up the teacup, and the smile on his lips faded.

Why did the male protagonist let Zhou Yunyu go...or was the tasker too cunning?

A girl wearing a shoulder-baring dress next to her shook her silver fork and said, "Even if the Zhou family's son comes out, he won't be able to take on the responsibility. He might squander all the family property in no time."

"Yeah, let's not talk about him anymore. What do you think of my new manicure?"

The socialites at afternoon tea parties prefer to talk about what they like, and just pass by this kind of gossip.

Ye Junqing couldn't get any useful information, so she had to reluctantly join in on the topic of manicure bags.

……

Bai Chao walked out of the police station. The sunlight was blinding, so he raised his hand to block it.

He was detained for two days, but the police could not get anything out of him, so they released him.

All the evidence pointed to Zhou's father committing suicide. All traces at the scene had been cleaned up by Fu Guiyan's men, and the deceased's biological son repeatedly insisted on his confession. The case was closed hastily, just as frivolously as Fu Hua's suicide case.

Just as Bai Chao was about to put his hand down, he suddenly took a step to the side, reached forward and grabbed the wrist that was being slapped by Zhou's mother.

Why do this couple love to slap people?

Zhou's mother was stunned for a moment, and then burst into tears the next second.

"You unfilial son! Why do you say your father committed suicide? How could he commit suicide?"

Bai Chao glanced at her and shrugged.

"Mom, but what I said is the truth."

Zhou's mother's face was filled with grief and anger, but she was busy pushing people into the car.

"I don't have time to tell you this. Come with me to the company. Those old guys are about to take away all your father's assets!"

Zhou's mother waited for her son to be born with great difficulty, and the first thing she did was to take him to inherit the estate.

But when they hurriedly arrived, there were almost no people in the company, with only a few scattered people moving things out.

Zhou's mother noticed at a glance that someone was moving the most expensive potted plant in the office, so she quickly grabbed that person and questioned him.

"What are you doing? Who told you to take things out? You are stealing, don't you know that?"

The man moving the potted plants was full of impatience: "Stealing? Who are you? Don't you know that this company is bankrupt? We don't even have a salary. The vice president has allowed us to use the goods to pay our wages. Get out of the way."

"……what?"

Mother Zhou took a step back in disbelief.

It's only been two days, and she sent people yesterday to confirm whether those old guys had taken any action. She also called several senior executives, and they all said that everything was normal and to wait until his son came out before making any further comments.

How is it possible to go bankrupt in just two days? !

She kept calling the contacts on her phone, but no one answered. Finally, only someone she had some acquaintance with answered the phone. In response to Zhou's mother's questioning, he only gave a hasty explanation.

"Madam, it's all because of that big project that Mr. Zhou insisted on taking... Now everyone is in trouble, and there's nothing we can do. People from the court will come over in a few days, so you... should be mentally prepared."

Mother Zhou was almost dizzy. When she heard the last sentence, she suddenly had a bad feeling: "What kind of mental preparation do you want?"

The man didn't say anything, but hung up the phone.

Zhou's mother totally refused to believe the fact that her family had gone bankrupt. She dragged her son around everywhere and almost emptied out everything that could be moved in the company.

"Impossible...impossible..."

Bai Chao calmly picked up a fallen chair, dusted it off, and sat on it himself.

The bankruptcy of the Zhou family had long been a foregone conclusion, and the so-called big project was a trap deliberately dug by the male protagonist, specifically for the Zhou family to jump into.

But Zhou's mother refused to believe that what she saw was true. She quickly contacted a lawyer and then took her son to check other branches without stopping.

But in the end, all we could wait for was a devastating piece of news.

When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. The remaining assets of the Zhou family have been devoured by the jealous jackals and tigers, and even a huge debt has been left behind.

When Zhou's mother heard the bad news, she felt dizzy and fainted.

The Zhou family lost their glory and fell into ruin in a moment.

It was not until the evening that Bai Chao finally returned home.

He sent Zhou's mother to the hospital and found a nurse to take care of her.

The servants in the house seemed to have received the news as well and all ran away.

So now the Zhou family is empty, with only him left.

"Host, the male protagonist seems to be beginning to suspect that you have lost contact." 001 reminded.

Bai Chao was lying on the sofa, turning on his cell phone, only to see a series of messages sent by the male protagonist.

After he hung up the phone two days ago, the other party sent a good night message. In the next two days, she sent daily life and photos as usual, but because he did not reply, the male protagonist sent more messages. Today, he even called several times, but he did not answer.

Bai Chao was flipping through the messages on his phone when the other end called again.

He hesitated for a moment, then pressed the answer button.

But before the male protagonist could speak, Bai Chao asked directly in a very aggressive tone: "What?"

Fu Guiyan was silent for a while. Since he noticed that the other party had ignored him for two days, he thought something had happened, but when he heard the voice, it seemed that nothing had happened.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine."

"..." Fu Guiyan seemed to hear that he was in a bad mood, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Bai Chao snorted: "I just don't want to pay attention to you."

"…Did I say something wrong that made you angry?"

"You know what you did, why are you asking me?"

"..."

Fu Guiyan wasn't sure.

It was the first time he encountered a girl who lost her temper. Although he didn't know why, his intuition told him that he couldn't ask and could only say...

"Sorry, it's my fault."

The girl's temper softened slightly after hearing this: "That's more like it."

Fu Guiyan: "..."

Bai Chao curled his lips and leisurely poured himself a glass of red wine, but his lips stopped before they even reached the rim of the glass.

This wine... the male protagonist shouldn't be able to hear it, right?

The man on the other side seemed to feel that he had been silent for too long and abruptly changed the subject.

"Two days ago...did your phone run out of battery?"

Bai Chao frowned, then he remembered that he had hung up the phone directly.

"Oh, when the servant closed the window, he also turned off the cell phone."

"it is good."

Bai Chao shook the wine glass and called up the task panel. Perhaps he could take another step forward.

He deliberately asked curiously: "By the way, what is our relationship?"

Fu Guiyan obviously didn't expect his question: "...Friend?"

"Just friends?"

"..."

Bai Chao took a sip of wine and pretended to be angry: "I don't want to talk to you anymore."

There was still a long silence on the other side.

But the task progress bar was no longer silent, jumping back and forth between 80% and 90%, and finally stopped at 81% with restraint.

Bai Chao sighed in his heart.

Sure enough, we still need to meet.

The tasks do become more difficult as you go along.

During these three years, the Bai Dynasty has also made attempts, and just like now, there are big ups and downs but slow progress.

Later he stopped testing and waited for the hero to return home.

Maybe because he was cheated once, the progress was very fast.

If Ji Yueyue had not been exposed, the mission might have been completed long ago.

Bai Chao originally intended to have Princess Rapunzel die a worthy death during the three years that the hero was abroad, and to have the hero remember 'her' forever, completely changing the ending of the original novel.

He would not let the Dark Nightmare Worm have the chance to see the male protagonist, but would directly make it lose the luck of the female protagonist. Without the favor of the world's will, its fate would be either to die in a foreign land or to be discovered and struck to death by the awakened Heavenly Dao.

No need to do it yourself at all.

What a pity. The more he wanted to speed up the process, the worse it became.

Bai Chao was about to say a few perfunctory words and then hang up the phone.

But at this moment, Fu Guiyan's low voice came from the phone.

"Do you need to be coaxed to sleep today?"
