Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 190: Did Pei Youchuan secretly make a small move?
She turned around and walked away.
Pei Youchuan, holding the tray, followed behind her: "Chuchu, third brother I—"
His heart suddenly shot with a sharp pain, like being pricked by needles!
Pei Youchuan’s face turned pale!
Damn it, every time he thought about telling her the truth, his heart ached terribly!
He couldn’t help but feel more emotional.
So this is the feeling that Qiao Chuchu had been forced into by the system.
He must be an idiot. Chuchu had suffered so much, and he still blamed her!
He held the tray steadily, preparing to follow her: "Chuchu, you haven’t tried the other water yet. Don’t you want to taste it?"

"Mr. Pei?" A male voice came from behind.
Pei Youchuan turned around.
The person he was about to talk to, Mr. Zhang, was smiling and standing behind him.
Mr. Zhang said: "I was looking for you. You didn’t reply to my messages, and I thought something was wrong with you."
Mr. Zhang glanced at the tray Pei Youchuan was holding: "Why do you have so much water?"
Pei Youchuan, tall and dressed in a suit, was holding a tray filled with colorful liquids and various types of cups.
His elegant aura was completely mismatched with the colorful tray.
He looked like a handsome, refined man playing the role of a housewife.
Mr. Zhang’s secretary couldn’t help but laugh.
Pei Youchuan didn’t mind and casually said, "It’s for my little sister. I didn’t know what kind of water she likes, so I bought a little bit of everything."
Mr. Zhang laughed: "Everyone says you really care for your little sister. It’s true, I can see that. Let my secretary help you put the water aside."
Mr. Zhang’s secretary stepped forward to take the water.
Mr. Zhang commented: "Your relationship with your sister is so close, it’s like you’re bound by blood, even if you aren’t."
Pei Youchuan picked up his phone: "It’s not like that. It’s just that we’ve spent so much time together, the bond naturally grew deeper."
Mr. Zhang: "?"
That sounded a bit odd, didn’t it?
Pei Youchuan transferred 50,000 yuan to Qiao Chuchu via WeChat: "Wanna bet on endurance?"
Qiao Chuchu quickly accepted the 50,000 yuan: "What are we betting on?"
Pei Youchuan: "I’m in the restaurant on the third floor. Come find me and stay within my line of sight until I finish with my client. If you stay the whole time, you’ll earn another 100,000 yuan!"
Qiao Chuchu: "?"
"Such an easy bet can get me 150,000 yuan? Are you crazy, or am I crazy? Or do you have money you don’t know what to do with?"
Pei Youchuan thought for a moment and typed: "I’m betting that you won’t want to stay in my line of sight. If you don’t show up or if you leave before the time’s up, you’ll owe me 200,000 yuan. You’ve already accepted the money, and this round’s on you. If you don’t show, now you owe me 200,000!"
Based on what he knew about Qiao Chuchu, this would definitely get her to come.
Sure enough, Qiao Chuchu replied: "You’ve triggered my competitive spirit! I guarantee you won’t get a single cent from me!"
She ran up the stairs, appearing within Pei Youchuan’s sight with a smug look on her face, almost like a meme that had just gone viral.
Pei Youchuan stood above, put away his phone, and raised an eyebrow, smiling at her: "Come with me."
Once inside the restaurant, he leaned in and whispered to her: "Don’t forget, if you leave my line of sight, you owe me 200,000."
Qiao Chuchu gave an "OK" hand gesture!
【150,000 is definitely mine!】
Pei Youchuan raised an eyebrow and smiled happily as he followed Mr. Zhang into the restaurant.
Qiao Chuchu casually sat by a water bar, pulled out her phone, and started making a mind map, organizing the plot and character relationships.
But then, a familiar voice sounded from behind: "Luna, thank you for letting me join you on the cruise. I’ve never been on such a luxurious ship, and I didn’t even have a ticket. I came on as a last-minute addition, and you managed to get me on board. I’m really grateful."
Qiao Chuchu turned towards the voice.
Xia Xuechun was walking alongside a tall woman with glamorous waves in her hair.
The wave-haired woman had a tall, sexy figure, wearing a short skirt with fur, while Xia Xuechun still wore that wrinkled Chanel outfit, her shoes a bit dirty, her entire state dull and lackluster.
Clearly, she was the wave-haired woman’s follower.
The wave-haired woman glanced at Xia Xuechun arrogantly: "It’s nothing. You were just left without anywhere to go after the dinner party was interrupted, right? So, I’m letting you accompany me. After all, you’re Uncle Long’s adopted daughter."
Then, the wave-haired woman looked puzzled: "But why did Mrs. Wang’s tea party end so early? Doesn’t it usually last for several hours?"
Xia Xuechun lowered her head nervously: "Someone framed me for stealing. Mrs. Wang misunderstood, and she got angry."
The wave-haired woman was surprised and widened her eyes: "Who was it?"
Xia Xuechun’s black-and-white eyes flashed with resentment as she raised her head: "Qiao—"
Before she could finish, she saw Qiao Chuchu.
Xia Xuechun froze, quickly changing her lackluster posture, as if injected with energy: "Qiao Chuchu?!"
Luna looked at Qiao Chuchu in surprise, her expression changing: "Qiao Chuchu?"
Qiao Chuchu rested her chin in her hand and lazily stared at the two of them: "How strange, my two not-so-good friends actually ran into each other. Looks like the enemy of my enemy is my friend, huh?"
Xia Xuechun was surprised, looking at Luna: "Luna, you don’t get along with Qiao Chuchu either?"
Qiao Chuchu smiled playfully: "Not just not getting along. She was so scared she ran abroad back then, and didn’t dare return for years, right, Luna?"
Luna’s face darkened, and she remained silent.
Qiao Chuchu sneered at her.
When Pei’s mother passed away, and the Pei family fell into darkness, the girl group that led the bullying was Luna.
All the people in their school were either rich or influential, and bullying was rarely done openly; it was usually the leaders of small cliques who exploited their followers.
Luna was the leader of one of those small groups.
She had chased Pei Youchuan for years, but he had always rejected her.
Later, when Pei’s mother passed away and their family’s fortune was seized by others, their family became poor.
So, Luna betrayed them and turned to attack Pei Youchuan, having the boys fight him while the girls attacked her.
But she wasn’t easy to deal with. She took revenge by making disgusting, homemade explosive devices, and the one who got the worst was Luna.
Even though Luna had been tricked by her many times, she still made sure to bring a team to the women’s bathroom to fight back.
In the presence of a larger group, she had suffered, but she would always find a way to counterattack with dirty tricks, never giving up on Luna.
Later, as one after another of the Pei family members died unexpectedly, her status grew more powerful each day.
Luna seemed to have caught wind of something sinister, so she fled abroad and never returned.
After so many years, Luna, who still liked to form small groups and be the queen of them, had not changed at all.
The only difference was that now, beside her, there was an additional Xia Xuechun.
Qiao Chuchu found it curious.
Xia Xuechun’s team didn’t have anyone like Luna. What was Luna’s role in Xia Xuechun’s life? Was she playing a supporting role?
Luna, feeling Qiao Chuchu’s gaze, became uneasy and her expression turned more timid: "Long time no see, Qiao Chuchu, you’ve become more beautiful."
Xia Xuechun looked at Luna in shock.
Eh?
So timid?
She thought Luna would argue with Qiao Chuchu.
Qiao Chuchu was also surprised, sarcastically saying: "You can still compliment me? I thought you were going to drag me to the women’s bathroom for a beating!"
Luna frowned and suddenly felt a cold, dangerous gaze.
She looked towards it and gasped!
Pei Youchuan was sitting in the restaurant inside, behind a transparent glass, his piercing, cold eyes locking onto her.
One hand was propped up on his cheek, the other hand tapping rhythmically on the table.
It was like he was counting time.
Luna became even more frightened, not daring to look at Pei Youchuan. She quickly said, "Sorry, Qiao Chuchu, I was wrong about the past. I’ll leave now."
Qiao Chuchu watched Luna rush away in confusion, feeling that something was off, then looked towards Pei Youchuan.
Pei Youchuan’s expression was calm, his gaze on her.
He seemed angry, but when his eyes met Qiao Chuchu’s, his lips curled into a swift smile, revealing his characteristic small tiger teeth, looking like a harmless loyal dog wagging its tail.
Qiao Chuchu: "..."
【Luna just looked like she saw a ghost, did she see Pei Youchuan?】
【Did Pei Youchuan do something to her?】
