The Villain Slaps The Protagonist’s Halo - Chapter 86
Added 2024-01-16 01:19:55 +0000 UTCChapter 86: Love is a Green Light
After the establishment of the new royal city, Nie Jia never returned to Zhuolu.
The brutal deeds of the Yan King spread far and wide, as he completely suppressed suspicions and speculations with absolute strength, realizing his own dominance.
In this world where royal power reigns supreme, utilizing the rules of the era, he perfectly fulfilled the wishes of the former lord. Yet, in the end, Nie Jia couldn't evaluate his own actions. Even with the occasional approval from Shi Chen, there was a peculiar sense of confusion in his heart.
While the Yan King was alive, no one dared to violate the Yan Kingdom's borders, and the neighboring Liang and Chu countries remained unusually cautious. It wasn't until the Yan King's passing at the age of twenty-one, that Xuanjia 21 also disappeared. After decades of tranquility, the flames of war were once again ignited on the land.
When Shi Chen extracted Nie Jia's personal data from the world's records, it didn't maintain his self-awareness.
Bringing Nie Jia to the glitch he had torn open, Shi Chen had KK monitor his mental state, using sleep to nurture his almost uncontrollable inner turmoil.
"He has truly changed." Shi Chen looked at Nie Jia sleeping countless times, his heart filled with a mix of tenderness and resentment.
KK, uneasy, commented, "But you said he was right."
"I can't deny him, but he can't bear it." Shi Chen stroked a strand of Nie Jia's hair on his cheek, his gaze somewhat pained.
He knew very well that Nie Jia didn't care about others' opinions and thoughts. If someone made him uncomfortable, he could break their neck without hesitation, but that person couldn't be Shi Chen. If he had even a hint of doubt or denial towards Nie Jia, their relationship would likely come to an end.
Shi Chen could easily predict Nie Jia's reactions—he would run away, avoid, like a timid ghost.
Risking being uninstalled, KK bravely retorted, "I don't understand your point. I feel Mr. Nie hasn't done anything wrong. Weren't you pleased when he started 'biting people' before?"
"Shut up." Shi Chen scolded him indifferently.
KK, covering his mouth, couldn't help but complain, "Don't you feel disappointed because Mr. Nie has become completely different from before?"
Shi Chen raised an eyebrow in anger. "You little bunny, what nonsense are you guessing? If you dare to talk nonsense in front of Jia Jia, I'll tear you apart!"
KK instantly dared not say another word.
Shi Chen manipulated the data, elongating the flow of time, giving Nie Jia more time for recovery. After scolding KK, his expression returned to the rare gentleness when facing his beloved. Gently smoothing out the unconscious frown on Nie Jia's forehead, he whispered, "You're doing well. Just hold on a bit longer, it will be over soon."
Nie Jia slept in the glitch for almost a year, a period of memories he did not possess. In his consciousness, he went directly from the majestic and solemn palace to the current extravagant and lascivious business club, bathed in vibrant lights and an atmosphere of debauchery.
The unclear laughter of men surrounded him, causing Nie Jia a dizzying headache. His cheeks also stung with a sharp pain. As he regained his senses, he lightly hissed, pushing away a wandering hand around his waist.
Immediately, a man next to him laughed with interest, "Oh, not obedient yet? Mr. Lin, this little bunny you brought is quite spirited."
Nie Jia raised his head, using the dim light to see a young man in a suit, full of ruffian charm. The man also looked over, meeting Nie Jia's gaze. His lips curled with a sly smile as he reached out to grab Nie Jia. Unconsciously trying to slap his hand away, Nie Jia found himself not only feverish but also lacking the strength to resist. He was captured and firmly pressed into the man's arms, who then planted a fierce kiss on his neck, triggering laughter throughout the room.
Nie Jia's blurred eyes suddenly became clear and indifferent. He realized that his body had been drugged, and the intense pain on his cheek was probably from struggling and being slapped.
A deep and indifferent male voice behind him spoke, "You've misunderstood him. If he struggles, it only means you haven't paid him enough. After all, he's in desperate need of money now, right, Director Nie?"
Nie Jia, making every effort, broke free from the ruffian and fell back onto the sofa. Swiftly utilizing his abilities to recover, he looked up and saw a man sitting across from him. This man, distinct from the others, held a wine glass, exuding an arrogant aura like a noble. However, his gaze towards Nie Jia was full of disdain and disgust.
In a critical situation, Nie Jia didn't have time to carefully read the world data. KK had to quickly remind him: 【He is Lin Haoran, the protagonist attacker in this world, Mr. Nie. The entanglement between the original host and him is complicated. The current situation is not favorable to you. It's best to leave here as soon as possible and avoid further conflicts with him.】
Is that so? Nie Jia coldly chuckled in his mind, unafraid, and locked eyes with Lin Haoran.
The ruffian beside him wanted to embrace Nie Jia again, joking, "I have plenty of money. As long as Director Nie behaves obediently in bed, letting me have a good time, I guarantee it'll earn more than you filming ten movies."
"By having him here, we'll pay for the show!"
"Hahaha!"
Insults and mockery filled the room incessantly. As Nie Jia scanned the surroundings, even Lin Haoran, who maintained a noble demeanor, curved his lips in a mocking smile. It seemed like witnessing Nie Jia being humiliated brought him great joy.
By now, the lingering effects of drugs in Nie Jia's body had completely cleared. He didn't bother about the hand that came around again. Instead, he turned his head indifferently to face the presumptuous ruffian. Seizing the handful of hair at the back of the guy's head, he viciously pulled it backward, almost breaking his neck.
"Kid, do you know who you're talking to?" In front of everyone, Nie Jia, who was initially soft and weak, suddenly grabbed Huang Yijie's hair, stood up, and, with a foot on the sofa, lifted a bottle of wine and smashed it onto Huang Yijie's head!
A cracking sound, red wine splattering. Huang Yijie was knocked out with a single bottle.
Nie Jia's actions were too fast. Not only did Huang Yijie fail to react, but also the others in the room were still in shock. It wasn't until Nie Jia let go and threw away the half-broken bottle that Lin Haoran jolted back to his senses, standing up angrily, "Nie Jia, have you gone mad!"
Others also regained their composure, getting furious one after another. Someone dared to take action in their presence, turning the situation upside down! Several individuals, with a fierce gleam in their eyes, approached to teach Nie Jia a lesson.
"Meddlesome." Nie Jia's eyes were like a wolf's. He grabbed another empty bottle from the table and held it in his hand. As they came toward him, full of youthful vigor, some having studied a few years of sanda, they found themselves in Nie Jia's grasp like little chicks, unable to struggle. One after another, they all had their heads cracked open with expensive red wine.
The room was filled with splashing red wine and shattered glass. The young man, who had just been at the mercy of everyone, now resembled a ferocious tiger in a sheep pen, extremely fierce.
Nie Jia picked up another empty bottle, weighing it in his hand. Expressionless, he approached Lin Haoran.
"What do you want?" Lin Haoran finally lost his usual composure, watching the youth who effortlessly subdued the entire room. There was a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Wanna fight. Can't you see? I'm fighting you." Nie Jia approached step by step. Currently, he didn't know the details of the conflict between the original host and the protagonist attacker. Still, bringing himself to a place where he could be drugged and humiliated was enough for Nie Jia to make a note of it.
"Don't forget, in another half year, you'll have to relinquish your shares in Sejia Media. By then, you'll be nothing." Lin Haoran, despite feeling threatened, reminded him of his greatest weakness – the shares of Sejia Media that Nie Jia had always been troubled by. Otherwise, how could he willingly come to this place with him, even without mentioning the company? Nie Jia wouldn't be anything. The thought reassured Lin Haoran, even though he didn't bring bodyguards today, he didn't believe that Nie Jia would dare to lay hands on him. He still needed to beg himself.
Just as Lin Haoran finished speaking, Nie Jia's wine bottle smashed onto his forehead.
