《I Am More Paranoid Than The Villainess》 Chapter 1 Girlfriend¡¯s Betrayal It was getting dark and there were more and more vehicles on the road. An intimidating black car with blinding tail lights left a trail of bright red. Shen Man drove the car, stopped at the red light intersection, glanced at the small gift beside him, and raised the corners of her lips happily. She looked at the red light and patiently counted the seconds in her heart. Out of the corner of her eyes, she inadvertently swept to the side of the road, where two women stood. Both of them were beautiful women. The two were intimate, hugging each other under the bright and dark lights, almost face to face. In the eyes of ordinary people, they seemed to be best friends with a good relationship. But Shen Man knew who they were. One was her girlfriend who had been with her for almost a year, and the other was her close friend and business partner. The smile on Shen Man¡¯s mouth froze. The red light in front of her made her eyes hurt, and the gift beside her was more like a joke, reminding her of how ridiculous she was. Shen Man¡¯s expression became indifferent. She took out her mobile phone and made a call. The two who were hugging each other immediately separated. The fair-faced beauty took out her mobile phone and with a well-behaved smile on her face, she greeted, ¡°Sister Man, have you had dinner yet?¡± The voice from the phone was gentle and pure, with a happy undertone. ¡°Where are you?¡± Shen Man asked, with no fluctuations in her voice. The autumn wind from outside the window blew in, ruffled the hair around her ears, and scattered to form a small shadow, covering half of her eyes. The taillights of the car in front reflected in her eyes, forming a red glint in her eyes. ¡°I¡¯m taking a walk on the streets right now. I¡¯ll go back later.¡± The woman said with a chuckle, and a hand was moving around her waist. She twisted twice, but instead of rejecting it, she reached out and played with the hair of the person next to her. Shen Man watched quietly, her eyes and voice becoming cold. ¡°Look to the left.¡± The woman turned back, and her eyes fell on Shen Man¡¯s car. As her eyes widened, the phone in her hand fell to the ground. A look of panic flashed across the face of the person next to her, but she quickly recovered and waved to Shen Man with a smile. The green light was shown, and the car behind kept honking, urging her to move. Shen Man started the car skillfully. Her nails were beautiful and slender, she held the steering wheel steadily without any tremors. The car drove by quickly, and a small exquisite box flew out of the car window, falling into the trash can accurately. In the rearview mirror reflected a woman running in embarrassment. The woman, showing a frightened expression, opened her mouth and shouted ¡°Sister Man!¡±. Shen Man expressionlessly averted her eyes and controlled the steering wheel to turn to the right. The exact opposite way of home. The home that she once carefully prepared has now become a joke. It was the rush hour of geting off work. Roads were congested, and the cars were moving as slowly as a turtle. Shen Man frowned irritably, the anger of betrayal accumulating in her heart. Looking at the red light in front of her, she couldn¡¯t help but curse. Her phone rang and the call note was ¡®Baby. ¡¯ Shen Man¡¯s mouth curled into a mocking smile, and she answered the phone with a smile in his voice, ¡°Lin Qing, what do you want to explain?¡± Lin Qing shivered, fear in her eyes. She knew Shen Man too well. When Shen Man was angry, she wouldn¡¯t let out her anger directly, but instead behave calmly. The calmer she was, the deeper her anger. ¡°Sister Man, Cheng Wan and I have nothing to do with each other. I just met her on a walk and had a chat.¡± Lin Qing explained while crying, her tone extremely weak. Usually, as long as she showed a little pitiful expression, Shen Man would feel distressed. But this time, the only thing she¡¯d receive would be the cold laughter from the other person on the phone. ¡°Lin Qing, do you think I¡¯m a fool? I don¡¯t care about things that have been dirtied.¡± Shen Man said with a smile, her beautiful eyebrows ruthless. When the car in front stopped and moved, she pursed her lips and slammed her fist on the seat. The sharp edge cut through her fingertips, and bright red blood slowly dripped with pain. She looked indifferent as if she didn¡¯t notice it. Lin Qing¡¯s lips twitched, and she cried even louder. An invisible pressure broke through her psychological line through that cold voice. Knowing she couldn¡¯t fool Shen Man, she hurriedly apologized, ¡°Sister Man, I know I¡¯m wrong, please forgive me this time, okay?¡± ¡°We¡¯re over now.¡± Shen Man smiled coldly and hung up the phone. Holding the phone with one hand, Shen Man deleted all of Lin Qing¡¯s contact information and photos. Her circle of friends, Weibo, and other social accounts. Everything related to Lin Qing, she clicked and deleted without reluctance. It was as if this person had never appeared in her life. When in love, she wishes to tell the whole world about it. But once that love is broken apart, the only thing she wishes for is to never get involved again. This is Shen Man¡¯s consistent principle of doing things, and it will not be changed by anyone. The red light finally turned green, Shen Man threw the phone aside and accelerated past the cars in front, leaving her behind one car after another. Such impatient behavior is very dangerous on busy roads. There was a smile on Shen Man¡¯s lips, and she didn¡¯t care at all. The wind brought by the speed of the car was more enjoyable, blowing away the depression and irritability in her heart. Suddenly, a vehicle driving in the wrong direction was approaching in front. The car next to it blocked her sight and the speed of the car was too fast. When Shen Man saw this, her heart tightened, and she quickly wanted to turn the steering wheel to stop at the right. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw an old man walking slowly on the road with a child. If she stopped, she would definitely run into them. During this brief hesitation, Shen Man missed the best opportunity to avoid and collided with the oncoming vehicle. There was a loud bang, and a huge roar shattered Shen Man¡¯s eardrums and nerves. She lost consciousness almost instantly. As she was closing her eyes, she saw the surprised eyes of the old man and the child. Screams came from the roadsides and car horns sounded repeatedly, swarming the street into chaos. Shen Man couldn¡¯t hear any of it. *** Shen Man opened her eyes. What came into her sight was a dim light, constantly interlaced with various colors that were dazzling to the eye. There was also a large-screen projector not far away, with a music video on it, and the lyrics below turning red little by little. There was a deafening sound of music in the ear, and a man¡¯s singing voice came from the microphone. Half of the lyrics were out of tune, not good, but not bad either. People around were booing and applauding loudly. This is obviously a KTV, not a hospital. Shen Man was dizzy from the noise. After getting used to the light in the room, she finally saw her surroundings clearly. There were dozens of people in the house, half male and half female. Some were singing, some drinking, and some playing dice. Their faces looked immature, probably just coming of age at around 18 or 19 years old. They look young, and their clothes were also simple student styles. Shen Man felt her head hurt even more. She started her own business from scratch in school. After seven or eight years in the society, her social circle is full of fox-like characters, and she doesn¡¯t know any of the students in front of her. ¡°Shen Man, how can you get drunk with just a little bit of alcohol? That¡¯s too bad.¡± The singing boy threw the microphone to the person next to him, walked over and said with a smile. As he got closer, Shen Man saw the boy¡¯s appearance, handsome and sunny, very charming when he smiled. His eyes are clean and clear, and in the dim light, there are pure feelings of a young man. ¡°Master Tan, today is your birthday, classmate Shen Man is happy for you.¡± Someone next to him said, with flattery in his words. Shen Man tilted her head slightly. Only then did she realize that she was lying on the corner of the sofa, with wine bottles scattered on the table in front of her. It¡¯s all beer. With her alcohol capacity, even if she had finished drinking these beers, she would not get drunk. But now she was dizzy and felt her body was light, and she couldn¡¯t exert herself. She was obviously in a drunken state, but she was still very conscious. ¡°Where¡¯s Lin Shu? Where did this girl go? Her Sister Man is drunk but she hasn¡¯t shown up yet.¡± The boy asked the others loudly. As soon as the voice fell, the door was pushed open, and a slender girl walked in. Shen Man¡¯s eyes lit up. The girl is about 165 in height, with a bun on her head, a white shirt, and a small black skirt, showing a hint of sexiness in her purity. Her skin is very white, the kind of porcelain white that can reveal luster, and her long legs are white and straight. She also looks good, with bright and energetic almond eyes, and a slightly raised cherry mouth with a bit of arrogance. Simply standing there, she can attract everyone¡¯s attention. ¡°Lin Shu, where have you gone? Shen Man is drunk, help her to rest.¡± The boy said loudly with a smile. Obviously, she is supposed to be very familiar with this girl named ¡®Lin Shu¡¯. Lin Shu¡¯s lips curled up, her eyes fell on Shen Man¡¯s face, and she smiled sweetly, ¡°I told you that Sister Man is not good at drinking, but you still insist on her drinking. She¡¯s drunk now, are you satisfied?¡± ¡°My good friend Lin, don¡¯t say this. Quickly help your Sister Man away.¡± The boy said, begging for mercy. ¡°I don¡¯t want to.¡± Lin Shu snorted, her eyes full of arrogance, ¡°Whoever got her drunk should be responsible.¡± She is good-looking and with her arrogant expression, she was still cute, not annoying. Shen Man keenly sensed something was wrong. The girl¡¯s mouth was wrong, and there was a hint of panic in her eyes. Her body started to heat up when the two of them were talking, and an unusual heat rushed to her heart from her lower abdomen. She was used to seeing various scenes outside, and she knew very well what it was. Instead of falling into the hands of those people, she was tricked by a pure-looking little girl. Shen Man showed a faint smile, stood up from the sofa, and staggered towards the girl. Her face was flushed, and her eyes were misty, as if she was drunk. When the two were only one step away, Shen Man fell towards the girl. Lin Shu¡¯s heart tightened and she instinctively reached out to catch her. Shen Man was not heavy, but the force of the fall still hit Lin Shu, forcing her a step back. The two hugged each other, their limbs pressed against each other, their breathing intertwined. Shen Man¡¯s face was hidden in the dim sight, the smile on her lips was even greater, and she leaned against the girl pretending to be unconscious. Lin Shu had no choice but to support her with all her strength. ¡°Okay, your Sister Man only wants you, now you can¡¯t refuse anymore.¡± The boy said. Lin Shu supported the person with an unnatural smile on her face, and said with a red face, ¡°How can a girl like me help her, help me.¡± ¡°Find another girl to help you.¡± The boy smiled and pointed to a girl in the crowd. Lin Shu shook her head and refused, ¡°I¡¯ll do it myself.¡± Shen Man was even more certain that there was something wrong with this girl. Since you dare to calculate her, you must be prepared to pay the price. Chapter 2 Drugged Lin Shu supported Shen Man and walked to the prepared room. Shen Man half-squinted her eyes, observing the surrounding environment The design here is exquisite and luxurious, and the carpets and materials used are exquisite. It was at least the specifications of a five-star hotel. To be able to come to such a high-end place for consumption shows that this group of teenagers are no ordinary children. Listening to their conversation, it seems that they¡¯re from wealthy families. Shen Man¡¯s beautiful lips frowned slightly. The heat in her belly soared again, softening her body, and her soft red lips let out a soft whistle. ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Shen Man bit her red lips, her white teeth clasped together tightly, preventing herself from groaning. She slid down, putting most of her weight on Lin Shu. Lin Shu couldn¡¯t hold it for a while, and squatted on the ground. The two were very close. Shen Man¡¯s hot breath scalded Lin Shu¡¯s snow-white neck. Lin Shu was startled. Her head tilted back slightly, pulling a little distance. And while pretending to care, she asked ¡°Are you alright?¡± Shen Man took a deep breath, suppressed the strangeness in her abdomen, and stood up against the wall. There was a successful smile in Lin Shu¡¯s eyes, and she let go of her hand and said, ¡°Since you can stand up by yourself, then I won¡¯t help you.¡± Shen Man didn¡¯t speak, and walked forward while leaning on the wall. The potent dizzying effect of the medicine in her body eroded her sanity. The two were walking to the corner, when they heard rapid footsteps behind them. A girl was running in their direction with an anxious look. Lin Shu turned around, saw the person approaching, and said with a smile, ¡°Ding Qian, what are you doing in such a hurry?¡± Ding Qian glanced at Shen Man and said anxiously, ¡°There¡¯s been mistake.¡± ¡°What mistake?¡± Lin Shu frowned. Ding Qian hurriedly pulled Lin Shu aside and whispered, ¡°That person gave the wrong medicine.¡± ¡°Which medicine?¡± Lin Shu was puzzled. ¡°It¡¯s.¡­ that kind of medicine.¡± ¡°Ding Qian made some gestures with her eyes and fingers. Lin Shu was even more puzzled. Unable to understand Ding Qian¡¯s gestures, she interrupted impatiently, ¡°Okay, I understand.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great, please think of a way to fix this.¡± Ding Qian said nervously. They originally just wanted to teach Shen Man a lesson and found someone to buy medicine that gives people upset stomachs, so Shen Man make a fool of herself at the party. As a result, the other party had gotten the wrong idea and took gave them an aphrodisiac. Shen Man couldn¡¯t hear the conversation between the two. She could only vaguely hear a few words that were repeated numerously such as ¡®mistake and ¡°that kind¡¯. She tilted her head to look over, just in time to meet eyes with Ding Qian. Ding Qian looked away with a guilty conscience, and quickly ran away. Lin Shu came over, looked at Shen Man seemingly unable to stand properly, and helped her up by the arm again. Shen Man took advantage of the situation and leaned over, her dexterous fingers wrapped around the girl¡¯s slender waist. Through the thin fabric, she could feel the soft and delicate skin under her palm, and she couldnt help rub it twice. ¡°Don¡¯t touch my waist, it tickles.¡± Lin Shu bent over and burst out in laughter when she was touched. Shen Man controlled her reason and put her fingers on the girl¡¯s shoulders. Her index finger happened to land on the strap of the Lin Shu¡¯s bra. In just quick moment, she hurriedly moved away. The clean and pure aura of the girl next to her made Shen Man¡¯s mind wander, and she walked to the room with only her own extraordinary will. Lin Shu helped her to the bed, her arms becoming sore, she complained shyly, ¡°You are so heavy. Growing up, I have never done such a tiring job.¡± Shen Man smiled, knowing that she was in trouble with a real pampered, wealthy heiress. ¡°What are you laughing at?¡± Lin Shu raised her eyebrows and leaned over unconvinced. Seeing Shen Man lying on the bed, panting like a struggling fish, she laughed happily again. ¡°Do you know what you are doing?¡± Shen Man asked in a cold voice with her eyes half closed. Her beautiful eyes were filled with water vapor, and her sharp gaze was dissolved into softness by a little water droplet. Lin Shu smiled proudly, ¡°This is what you get for messing with me. Shen Man, enjoy tonight.¡± ¡°Enjoy?¡± Shen Man raised the corners of her red lips and pulled the unrepentant person into her arms. Then, she whispered, ¡°It takes two people to enjoy such a good night.¡± Lin Shu didnt understand what she meant. But the smile in those eyes, like a wolf staring at its prey, instinctively made her feel dangerous. There was a trace of fear in her heart, so she twisted and struggled. Shen Man¡¯s body was extremely hot, and the strong medicinal properties stimulated her nerves again and again. The person in her arms was still teasing her senses constantly. During the struggle, the buttons of the white shirt were loosened, revealing a touch of white and sexy shoulders. Shen Man almost lost her senses. Her red lips slightly hooked, she lowered her body and approached the girl¡¯s blushing lips. She exhaled, ¡°Do you know that I like women?¡± ¡°What?¡± Lin Shu widened her apricot eyes in surprise, ¡°Hmm.!¡± As soon as she said those two words, her lips were caught. The scorching heat enveloped her body. She obviously didn¡¯t drink much, but her head felt light and blank. Her breathing gradually became difficult, and she opened her lips unconsciously, wanting to get fresh air. The woman above was suddenly excited and deepened the kiss. Lin Shu was dizzy and had no ability to resist. Her body was not under her control, and she sank little by little. *** The sky gradually got darker, until it was pitched black. Then, it slowly started brightening up. A light could be seen in the distance, it was the sun climbing up little by little. Bright sunlight shone into the room through the gaps in the curtains, just falling on Shen Man¡¯s delicate side face. Shen Man opened her eyes and felt a severe headache. Her mind was blank. For a while, she didn¡¯t know where she was, not even whether the sun was rising in the east or in the west. Shen Man stared blankly at the ceiling and laid there quietly. The sun moved, shining on her eyes, so she had to squint and turn her head away. A beautiful porcelain doll-like face appeared in her sight. The girl had closed eyes and her long eyelashes, which fluttered like the wings of a butterfly, curled up beautifully. Her lips were very red, slightly swollen, and there was a moist redness around her eyes, as if she had been bullied and had cried a lot. Memories came back in an instant. In Shen Man¡¯s mind, many images flashed in an instant. She kissed a strange girl. She left hickeys on her snow-white skin.. The girl trembled, her delicate fingers hugging her neck tightly as beautiful groans escaped her soft lips. Her cries of ¡°Sister Man¡± made her heart ache¡­ Shen Man pressed her forehead hard, and more memories emerged. She came back from a business trip ahead of schedule and stumbled upon her girlfriend having an affair on the road. She overtook the cars angrily, but one came in the wrong direction. After a flash of white light, she lost consciousness, and when she woke up again, she was in the KTV of a hotel. The group of people she didn¡¯t know called out her name. Shen Man¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes fell on her hands. The hands were immaculately white, with smooth nails neatly trimmed and her fingers without calluses. She remembered that she had a manicure done not long ago. Shen Man suddenly got up from the bed and ran to the bathroom quickly. She looked in the mirror, and the person in the mirror looked back. The two pairs of eyes showed surprise and astonishment. The person in the mirror had a pure looking oval face with big eyes and a small cherry mouth-the standard oriental beauty. Whenever people would see a glimmer of tears in her eyes, they would feel endless pity. Shen Man pinched her face in front of the mirror, and the person in the mirror showed the same pained expression as her. This strange and beautiful face is her new look. After calming down in the bathroom for half an hour, Shen Man finally accepted the fact that she had transmigrated. Based on the names of two key characters, ¡®Shen Man¡¯ and ¡®Lin Shu¡¯, she recalled a novel discussed by the company¡¯s employees. The plot of the novel is old-fashioned. It tells the story of a woman from an ordinary family who was admitted to the most famous aristocratic university in China. With the help of her father¡¯s friend¡¯s family, she had a sadomasochistic love triangle with the male protagonist and the second male lead. The birthday boy of yesterday¡¯s party was the second male lead. Lin Shu is the villainess in this novel. Born with a golden spoon, she can do whatever she wants, leading her to become spoiled and arrogant. The introduction of the heroine took away all her glory and the attention she received. She was jealous of the heroine and framed her in various ways Yesterday¡¯s episode was a small part of the frame-up. In the following plot, Lin Shu became more paranoid for love and will get worse and worse. But the heroine is stupid, always believing that Lin Shu will not harm her, and it was not until the finale that she finally recognized Lin Shu¡¯s true face. Still, she did not choose revenge, but forgave her. Shen Man hooked her lips, and there was a slight sneer in his eyes. There is no ¡°saint¡¯ among her life principles. Shen Man took a shower, pushed the door open with a bath towel on, and looked at the bed-just in time to meet Lin Shu¡¯s eyes. The atmosphere was still for two seconds. Then Lin Shu suddenly sat up from the bed, her beautiful almond eyes staring at Shen Man with shock and said, ¡°What did you do to me yesterday?¡± With a smile, she reminded her, ¡°The quilt.¡± Lin Shu hurriedly looked down. The quilt on her body slipped off because of her actions just now, revealing a large swathe of snow-white skin with crimson marks. ¡°Ahhh-!¡± a high pitched scream resounded through the room. With a smile on the corner of her mouth, Shen Man walked to the bed, ready to pick up the clothes she took off yesterday. ¡°Don¡¯t come here¡­¡± Lin Shu reacted and stopped her loudly. Feeling wronged, she bit her lip and wrapped herself in the quilt. Tears filled her eyes, and she looked at Shen Man full of resentment. Shen Man smiled as if she didn¡¯t care, picked up her clothes, and walked into the bathroom She dressed slowly, washed her face and brushed her teeth with the hotel¡¯s disposable utensils, then combed her hair in front of the mirror. There was a loud knock on the door from outside. Shen Man ignored it, and stretched out her slender fingers to caress the corner of her lips. There was a bit of broken skin here, and it was a little painful when she pressed it lightly. ¡°Shen Man, open the door, I need to go to the bathroom!¡± Lin Shu knocked the door hard, her voice hoarse. Shen Man opened the door and looked at the girl¡¯s angry eyes. She joked, ¡°Wow, you still seem so energetic early in the morning.¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± Lin Shu shouted back and closed the bathroom door. Shen Man sat beside the bed, admiring this unruly and willful eldest young lady. If this happened to someone else with little experience, they would probably cry to the point of doubting their lives. How could they be like Lin Shu, who still hasn¡¯t diminished her ¡°eldest lady temper¡±. Lin Shu took a shower in the bathroom, scrubbing the red marks on her body. She couldn¡¯t believe that she had sex with a woman, much less the person she hated most. Lin Shu gritted her teeth, and while washing herself, she thought about how to get revenge After thinking about it, she could only suffer from this unforeseen loss temporarily. She had planned to embarrass Shen Man, but now this kind of thing happened. Once it spreads, it will only do her bad, not good. Lin Shu finished her grooming, put on her clothes and went out. Looking at Shen Man, she said condescendingly, ¡°Don¡¯t tell anyone about what happened last night, or else I¡¯ll kick you out of my house.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Shen Man agreed with a smile. Lin Shu went out angrily and bumped into an oncoming figure. Seeing that it was Tan Kai, she said angrily, ¡°Are you here to find Shen Man?¡± ¡°Yes,¡± Tan Kai admitted generously with while blushing. He asked with concern, ¡°She was drunk yesterday, did anything happen to her?¡± ¡°What can happen?¡± Lin Shu was annoyed. She flushed with anger, and walked past Tan Kai. Tan Kai became a target of her baseless anger, but he was not angry at all. He stood at the door and said to the girl in the room, ¡°Shen Man, are you okay? Do you have a headache?¡± ¡°Thank you for your concern, I¡¯m fine.¡± Shen Man walked out with a light smile on her innocent and harmless face. Tan Kai blushed, looked at Lin Shu¡¯s back, and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with Lin Shu? Who made her unhappy this early in the morning. ¡°She probably didn¡¯t sleep well yesterday.¡± Shen Man said, with a deep smile in her eyes. ¡°She gets very angry if she¡¯s woken up¡± Tan Kai nodded in agreement. Shen Man immediately understood that the two were familiar with each other. She hadn¡¯t read the novel, and only heard the staff discuss some plots. The setting of the novel is that the villainess and the second male lead were childhood friends, and they lived very close. Originally, they were a good match but one fell in love with the male protagonist while the other fell in love with the heroine. They both couldn¡¯t have their love reciprocated, so they blackened. To be more precise, it was the villainess who instigated the second male lead to become a villain. After the male and female protagonists were happily together, the two of them were scolded by angry readers. Shen Man doesn¡¯t plan to follow the original silly sweet love story. She likes women and is not interested in the cold male protagonist. ¡°Shen Man, Lin Shu seems to not want to join us. I¡¯ll take you back first.¡± ¡°Tan Kai said with a smile, unable to hide the little thought in his heart. ¡°Thank you.¡± Shen Man replied with a smile. She just came to this world, so she is not familiar with everything here. Naturally, she doesn¡¯t know where Lin Shu¡¯s home is. It would be best for someone to send her back. Shen Man got into Tan Kai¡¯s car. There are only the two of them in the luxury red sports car. Tan Kai kept talking about all kinds of topics to make her happy. Shen Man smiled and responded from time to time. Through chatting with Tan Kai, she got a lot of useful information. It was mid-September, and the weather was still hot. They had just finished their military training, and it was Tan Kai¡¯s birthday, so they gathered some classmates to celebrate. The male protagonist is cold and indifferent, so he didn¡¯t go. It was only during these two days that she moved into Lin Shu¡¯s house. In other words, these people don¡¯t actually know the heroine well yet. In everyone¡¯s general impression, she is beautiful and gentle, kind-hearted, enthusiastic and helpful, a pure white lotus flower, and she has become the most beautiful school flower of the school. This is exactly the same as the heroine described in the book. If she goes out of character, these people should not be particularly surprised. Of course, she wouldn¡¯t foolishly tell others that the heroine¡¯s soul had been replaced by her¡¯s. Tan Kai sent Shen Man to Lin Shu¡¯s home. To make it more convenient for his daughter, Father Lin bought a place in a high-end community near the school. The environment here is elegant, quiet in the middle of the hustle and bustle, as luxury cars come and go. People who can buy a house here are all wealthy. According to the setting of the novel, the male protagonist, the second male lead, and the villainess had a very wealthy family background as children of well-known local families. Among them, the male protagonist¡¯s family has the greatest financial resources and status. ¡°Thank you for sending me back.¡± Shen Man smiled softly. ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± ¡± Tan Kai said, taking out a bag from the car, ¡°By the way, this is your mobile phone. I found it on the sofa yesterday. Afraid of Shen Man misunderstanding, he hurriedly added, ¡°I didn¡¯t look at it.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Shen Man took the phone, turned around and entered the corridor. She did not enter the elevator, but stood at the entrance of the corridor and turned on her mobile phone. On the screen saver is a beautiful landscape photo, which should be a default wallpaper. This phone is not locked. Shen Man opened it directly, skimmed through the contacts, searched for ¡®Lin Shu¡¯, and quickly found her phone number. She called Lin Shu¡¯s number. After a while, Lin Shu¡¯s angry voice came from the other end of the phone, ¡°What?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have the key. I¡¯m downstairs now, come down and pick me up.¡± Shen Man said with a smile. ¡°Why should I go down to pick you up?¡± Lin Shu said with disdain. ¡°Last night we¡­¡± Shen Man said slowly. Lin Shu was silent for a moment, then growled angrily, ¡°Wait for me. Shen Man leaned against the wall, playing with her phone while waiting. After ten minutes, she finally saw Lin Shu¡¯s figure coming out of the elevator. Lin Shu changed into a long red dress. The fiery red color was flamboyant and wanton, which made her skin more ruddy, and her long skirt covered her long white and tender legs. Shen Man gave a regretful ¡®tsk¡¯, put away the phone and said, ¡°Shushu, you¡¯re here.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be so affectionate, I¡¯m not familiar with you.¡± Lin Shu replied with a cold face, with anger in her bright eyes. Shen Man smiled and walked over. She put her arms on Lin Shu¡¯s fragrant shoulders and cupped her hand around Lin Shu¡¯s ear, whispering ambiguously, ¡°Weren¡¯t we familiar enough last night?¡± ¡°You¡­ go away!¡± Panicked, Lin Shu glanced left and right, then pushed Shen Man away, and quickly entered the elevator. Shen Man followed behind leisurely. There were only the two of them in the elevator. Lin Shu¡¯s face was bright red, and Shen Man didn¡¯t know whether she was angry or ashamed. She glared at Shen Man and lowered her voice to warn, ¡°Shen Man, I said, you are not allowed to mention last night¡¯s events.¡± ¡°You¡¯re right. I can¡¯t mention it to other people, but you didn¡¯t say I couldn¡¯t mention it to you.¡± Shen Man gently rebutted. Lin Shu choked, her little face becoming even more angry, ¡°Last night¡¯s events did not happen, so not a word should be mentioned. Understand?¡± ¡°Yes, my eldest lady.¡± Shen Man smiled and agreed, with a gentle voice that was filled with infinite indulgence Lin Shu¡¯s heart skipped a beat. She couldn¡¯t help but think of the sound of her panting in her ear last night. How could this woman, who she hates most, be so sexy! Chapter 3 Tsundere Shen Man followed Lin Man back to her place. The house was very large, over 200 sq meters, and was very aesthetically designed. It had 4 bedrooms, 1 living room, 1 dining room, and 2 bathrooms. Situated facing south, the amount of lighting and fresh air was optimal. Shen Man couldn¡¯t tell which room was her¡¯s. She just followed Lin Shu with a smile on her face. ¡°Why in the world are you following me? Your room is that way.¡± Lin Shu said with a bit of annoyance, as she pointed to the room on the right with her chin. Shen Man chuckled and reached out a hand to force her to the wall. Trapping Lin Shu in her arms, she leaned forward and said in a low voice, ¡±I just wanted to send you to your room first.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t need you to send me,¡± Lin Shu loudly refused, her pale face turning red from anger, ¡±Move, I want to go back to my room.¡± Shen Man smiled harder and lowered her head so that their lips were almost touching. Lin Shu found her heart uncontrollably beating faster and her eyes rounded. They stared at each other a few moments until she turned away first. After a while, Lin Shu angrily turned her head back and returned the stare to Shen Man, not to be outdone. Shen Man let out her breath and smiled with interest. She released Lin Shu with a, ¡±Okay then, have a good rest.¡± ¡°Mind your own business,¡± Lin Shu replied with a humph. With her head held high, she stomped away in her little white slippers. Shen Man laughed softly and opened the door to her supposed room. The layout was simple, with a big bed, a dressing table, a closet, and a small coffee table. It was completely in line with her tastes. Shen Man walked around the room and found a few books on a table. They were all related to the field of design. She casually flipped a few pages and felt her head hurt. Her college major was in management and her ability in design is average, so she could never be as good as how the heroine was described. However, she could always learn. With her ability, even if she isn¡¯t the best, it wouldn¡¯t be far from it. Shen Man put down the book and sat in front of the dressing table. On it we¡¯re a set of affordable skincare products and some simple makeup. Hung near the closet was a school bag and inside was a school ID, regular ID, and a Hukou household registration. Shen Man flipped opened the Hukou. On it was only her name and information, which meant that she is an orphan. Shen Man carefully wrote down the situation of her new identity. She put the Hukou back and opened her phone to check the contacts. It contained numerous phone numbers, including the ones of the male lead and second male lead. Shen Man¡¯s heart leapt when she glanced over a contact named ¡°Aunt¡±. She wrote down the number and went to Wechat to search it up. She quickly found the chat history with this ¡°Aunt¡±. She quickly skimmed the chat to find that the last conversation was from the end of last month. That meant Aunt did not know that the original heroine moved in with Lin Shu. With this information, Shen Man figured out her situation. She does not know why she travelled into the body of a person with the same name, nor where the original owner of this body went. But one thing is for sure¡ª she wants to live well. * Footsteps came from outside. Shen Man opened the door and looked down the hallway. A middle aged woman is currently putting away her shoes. She was a bit plump, with a baggy shirt and groceries in hand. From her appearance, she seems to be Lin Shu¡¯s nanny. The woman looked back and spotted Shen Man. She smiled and explained, ¡°Manman, my daughter is sick so I need two days off to take care of her. I¡¯ve already told Mr. Lin about this.¡± The woman was very polite and her eyes were filled with apology, ¡°I¡¯ll make lunch before leaving and will come back tomorrow afternoon. During these two days I¡¯m away, I¡¯ll have to trouble you to eat takeout. I¡¯m sorry for the inconvenience.¡± ¡°That¡¯s fine, if it¡¯s urgent you can quickly go.¡± Shen Man replied with a smile while taking a glance towards Lin Shu¡¯s room. ¡°Yesterday, we all celebrated the whole night at someone¡¯s birthday party. Shushu is still sleeping and probably won¡¯t wake up until the evening.¡± ¡°Then I¡¯ll make some food and keep it warm so you two can eat when you¡¯re hungry,¡± The woman said as she carried the groceries to the kitchen. Shen Man followed and while leaning on the door frame, she told her, ¡°You should go check on your daughter first. I know how to cook a little, so when Shushu is awake, I¡¯ll make something for her.¡± ¡°How can I let you do this?¡± the woman put down the dishes with serious eyes. ¡°Come on, just go¡± Shen Man coaxed. The woman paused for a moment before finally agreeing. She said with gratitude, ¡°Thank you so much, I¡¯ll leave first. If you¡¯re not sure about how to use any of the appliances, you can call me.¡± ¡°Okay¡± replied Shen Man. The woman put the groceries in the fridge before changing her shoes and leaving. Shen Man watched the door close, then returned to her room. Her body still aches from her drunken state yesterday. Along with the intense exercise last night, she felt really tired and sleepy now that she¡¯s loosened up. When Shen Man woke up after a nice nap, it was already 4. Sunlight peeked through the window, basking the dressing table in a warm, golden glow. It was as if she was in a dream, and she felt out of touch from reality. After lying in bed for a while, Shen Man¡¯s head gradually cleared up. She got up from bed and planned to make dinner. As soon as Shen Man opened the door, she was face-to-face with a particularly angry, but still delicate looking girl. She raised the corners of her lips, ¡°Shushu, what¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Quickly get ready and make dinner, I¡¯m about to starve to death,¡± Lin Shu replied angrily, ¡°If you don¡¯t cook as well as Auntie He, I will kick you out of my house.¡± She still had that attitude of taking things for granted. But Shen Man wasn¡¯t upset at all. She was also surprised by this too. Although she used to spoil her ex-girlfriend, Shen Man never allowed her to be so disrespectful. But since she is a kind and gentle big sister type, with her personality, she would never act like Lin Shu. Shen Man opened the fridge. She scanned the shelves to find vegetables, meat, fresh greens, and even some fruit. She looked back at the girl on the sofa and asked ¡°What would you like to eat?¡± ¡°I want meat.¡± Lin Shu said loudly as she laid there watching tv. Shen Man grabbed some potatoes, tomatoes, leafy greens, and some meat. She then closed the refrigerator and started to prepare. She learned how to cook at a very young age and after she became rich, she hired people to teach her for a few months. Those teachers¡¯ skills were not any worse than certified chefs. Shen Man first washed the vegetables and meat, then chopped up some ginger, garlic, and chili. After marinating the meat and letting it sit, she went to cook some rice. When Lin Shu heard the sounds, she closed the tv and headed towards the kitchen. She was like a supervisor, observing Shen Man¡¯s work from the sidelines. Lin Shu watched her slender, white hands picking up the intimidating knife and quickly slice the potatoes into thin slices, then shreds. She couldn¡¯t even see how she did it so nicely. The potatoes were all turned into neat shreds in an instant and in the afterglow of the sun, they had a slight transparency. As she was captivated, Shen Man had already finished her work, leaving her with eyes full of surprise. ¡°How many points can my performance score? Eldest miss.¡± Shen Man joked, adding the title for fun. Lin Shu, who had been caught red handed, turned her head to the side and arrogantly answered, ¡°It¡¯s just average.¡± After that, she walked out with a raised chin. Shen Man laughed while she turned on the stove in preparation to stir fry some vegetables. Aunt He bought Tabasco pepper, bell peppers, and red peppers, so this meant Lin Shu can definitely handle spicy food. In 20 minutes, Shen Man finished three dishes and a soup. She added a good amount of chili in the pepper steak stir fry and stir fried potato shreds for maximum flavor. The leafy greens were also stir fried and the tomato egg drop soup was simmered. Shen Man placed these dishes on the dining table and went back to get the bowls of rice. Smelling the food, Lin Shu quickly got up to eat. Looking at the dishes, her stomach couldn¡¯t help grumbling. She swallowed her saliva and quickly went to wash her hands before sitting down. Shen Man brought out two bowls of rice and placed one in front of Lin Shu with a chuckle, ¡°Eldest miss, please try my cooking.¡± With a mhm, Lin Shu pick up her chopsticks and slowly grabbed a piece of meat. After swallowing, she reluctantly said, ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Shen Man just laughed and didn¡¯t comment about her trying to hide the fact that she really liked it. The two ate dinner together. Although Lin Shu has a bad temper, she was still a wealthy heiress and had excellent dining etiquette. She chewed slowly and did not make any unnecessary sounds. Shen Man occasionally glanced at her beautiful face filled with arrogance and couldn¡¯t help gently laughing. This villainess is indeed very attractive, but she just wouldn¡¯t stop offending people with her mouth. In under 24 hours, Lin Shu threatened her three times. Until now, she had never suffered this ¡°grievance¡± from anyone. Lin Shu kept eating the stir fried beef and shredded potatoes until her eyes were red from the spice, but she still didn¡¯t stop. On the other hand, she didn¡¯t even give that plate of leafy greens a single look. Suddenly, Lin Shu found a piece of spinach in her rice bowl. She furrowed her brows and stopped eating. Looking at the person who gave it to her with dissatisfaction, she said, ¡°I don¡¯t like these.¡± ¡°You¡¯re still growing and these are good for your development.¡± Shen Man replied and looked at Lin Shu¡¯s breasts while raising her eyebrow meaningfully. Lin Shu covered her chest and stared at Shen Man vigilantly. Shen Man smiled and looked away, continuing to eat as if nothing had happened. Lin Shu watched her for a few seconds and returned the green vegetable to Shen Man ¡°I don¡¯t want this.¡± ¡°You¡¯re shorter than me¡± Shen Man said nonchalantly. She returned the vegetable to Lin Shu. Lin Shu was hit on her weak spot and wanted to angrily refute, but she could only think of ¡°At least I¡¯m lighter than you.¡± ¡°Yeah, you¡¯re light,¡± Shen Man laughed, moving her gaze back towards Lin Shu¡¯s chest, ¡°But it¡¯d be great if if you can grow some more meat there.¡± ¡°Mind your own business, big breasts no brain.¡± Lin Shu humphed. Shen Man was speechless ¡®Big breasts No brain¡¯ is a really suitable phrase to describe the original heroine. When Shen Man heard about Lin Shu¡¯s schemes from her company¡¯s employees, she thought they were really low-level. She would never fall victim to them. Only the stubborn, stupid heroine would. Lin Shu angrily started to eat the vegetables with a frown. When she took a bite, she found it crisp and tender. Much to her surprise, it tasted a lot better than she¡¯d thought it would. Lin Shu couldn¡¯t help reaching out for more. The two ate everything cleanly off the plates. Shen Man got up to put the dirty dishes away. Meanwhile, Lin Shu returned to her sofa to continue watching tv. After washing the dishes, Shen Man headed towards her room. Lin Shu opened her mouth to stop her. Still propping her head up with her arm and looking at the tv screen, she ordered, ¡°I want to eat fruit, go cut some for me.¡± This attitude, she is as arrogant as ever. Shen Man chuckled and as she opened the fridge, she asked, ¡°What type of fruit do you want?¡± ¡°What¡¯s there?¡± Lin Shu was using a remote control and didn¡¯t even look up. ¡°There¡¯s apples, bananas, dragon fruit, and peaches.¡± Shen Man replied. ¡°Get a bit of everything and make me a fruit platter.¡± Lin Shu said in a lazy voice. Shen Man brought the fruits to the kitchen counter so she can wash, peel, and cut them. She placed the fruits neatly onto a platter. Then, she decided to cut the red dragon fruit into a heart shape and also rearranged the other fruits into a big heart. Shen Man took the finished fruit platter and placed it on the coffee table. Then, she sat on the sofa and used a toothpick to pick up a piece of dragon fruit. Lin Shu had felt the sofa sink a little so she turned her head to find Shen Man sitting next to her feet. She subconsciously frowned and said, ¡°Just leave it here.¡± ¡°How could I do that?¡± Shen Man smiled and leaned in, ¡°I have to personally feed the eldest miss.¡± Feeling a sense of danger, Lin Shu scooted back. But Shen Man kept coming closer, pressing her to the sofa. She lifted Lin Shu¡¯s chin with two fingers and warmly said, ¡°I put my heart into preparing this platter, I hope the eldest miss likes it.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll do it myself¡± Lin Shu hurriedly said. She turned her head and squeezed her lips into a tight line. ¡°You really don¡¯t need my help?¡± Shen Man laughed. ¡°I don¡¯t¡­¡± Lin Shu shook her head like a rattle. Shen Man let her go and sat back in her spot. She ate the piece of dragon fruit and licked her lips, ¡°Ok then, remember to wash the dishes after eating.¡± Lin Shu nodded slowly. After that, Shen Man got up and left. Finally alone, Lin Shu let out a sigh. Then, she realized¡ª this is her home so why should she be afraid of Shen Man? As she ate, Lin Shu became more and more uncomfortable. She stared at Shen Man¡¯s room and in her head, she thought of ways to drive this annoying woman out of her house.
