Villain: He intercepted the heroine at the beginning, and the protagonists collapsed

20: The ideal boyfriend of the heroine, a cool and arrogant scholar who actively seeks prestigeChi Wange’s parents were ordinary people from the countryside. Their views were the same as most people’s; they felt that a woman should get married in her early twenties.

However, because Chi Wange didn’t find any of the so-called successful men who usually confessed to her appealing, she hadn’t been in a single relationship until now.

Precisely because of this, her views on a significant other appeared even more ”idealized” compared to many people of the same age.

In her mind, her other half didn’t need to have money or status, but he had to share the same hobbies and the same topics of conversation. Most importantly, he had to be sufficiently handsome!

These few conditions were enough to filter out ninety-nine percent of people! Especially in society, to say that finding such a person was like looking for a needle in a haystack was not an exaggeration at all!

However, Chi Wange’s parents didn’t understand this. Seeing that Chi Wange couldn’t find a boyfriend, they planned to arrange blind dates for her.

Under her parents’ persuasion, Chi Wange, with the attitude of just giving it a try, braced herself and went once. The result was naturally self-evident.

Since then, to avoid blind dates and her parents’ questions, and being utterly annoyed, she simply fabricated a boyfriend.

Facing her parents’ inquiries, she just said that both sides were still in the getting-to-know-each-other phase, and that the other party was quite busy with work, so he couldn’t be brought home for the time being. This finally managed to temporarily shut her parents’ mouths.

Now, two or three months had passed, and her parents brought this matter up again. Perhaps they realized something, as they gave a deadline this time: she must bring her boyfriend home within half a month!

Thinking of this, Chi Wange felt a headache! The boyfriend she fabricated was fake; how could she bring him home? Moreover, with only half a month, where was she supposed to find a boyfriend?

Thinking of this, Chi Wange was suddenly slightly stunned, and Chen Tianming, whom she had met at the bookstore before, suddenly appeared in her mind!

”Even if I really had to find a boyfriend, it would have to be this type...” She couldn’t help but mutter in her heart.

However, Chi Wange reacted instantly. ”Pah, pah, pah!” ”What am I thinking about!”

Her expression was slightly flustered. However, tomorrow was the weekend. ”I wonder if he will still be there...” Thinking of this, Chi Wange’s pretty face suddenly felt hot, and for a moment, her heart was filled with both anticipation and shyness.

Time quickly arrived at the weekend afternoon. This time, Chi Wange deliberately arrived at the bookstore a while earlier. Sure enough, she saw Chen Tianming in the seat by the window from before.

This time, Chen Tianming had changed his clothes. However, the gentle-as-the-breeze and scholarly aura on him did not disappear because of that. He was still holding the same book as before. Perhaps because she was early, this time Chen Tianming was not in a rush to leave.

Last time, it was just a fleeting glance, and she hadn’t seen him clearly, but Chi Wange finally had time to properly size up this man. Under the sunlight by the window, golden light spilled onto his focused face. His nose bridge was high, and his jawline had a perfect curve. Accompanied by the rustling sound of pages turning, Chi Wange’s eyes lit up. Immediately after, she walked to the seat opposite Chen Tianming.

”Are you reading this book too?” As soon as she said this, she regretted it. She was too impatient!

Chen Tianming seemed to have just discovered someone beside him; he raised his head to look at Chi Wange and sized her up from head to toe. Immediately after, he revealed a gentle smile: ”The graveyard has become a ruin, filled with coffins and corpses everywhere. They have been killed once again. But every broken corpse saved our lives.”

—This was a passage from the book. Chi Wange’s eyes lit up, and the doubts in her heart dissipated for the most part. Suddenly, a feeling of meeting a kindred spirit made her feel joy from the bottom of her heart! Handsome, and having common topics with her. Wasn’t this exactly her ideal boyfriend?

Next, Chi Wange took the opportunity to sit opposite Chen Tianming. —There happened to be no one around at this time, which was why Chi Wange always came here at this time. After a conversation between the two, Chi Wange completely confirmed that the man in front of her truly liked reading.

For the vast majority of books or novels she mentioned, Chen Tianming could state the general content and insights, and could even recite some passages from them. This level of understanding of books could not be faked! Chi Wange’s eyes sparkled. The two talked more and more congenially.

In the end, after the sky gradually darkened, Chi Wange reluctantly got up. Chen Tianming stood up with her, sizing up the expression on this female lead’s face without leaving a trace. He chuckled inwardly, knowing that he had initially grasped this female lead.

Just as he had guessed, although this female lead looked like an aloof academic genius on the surface, because she only had studying in her heart and was buried in books, her psychological age was actually younger than her peers. —This was just like the news he had seen in his previous life, where those so-called high-IQ top students were played around by swindlers who had only graduated from elementary school.

He had originally thought that he would need to have more encounters, and finally take action himself, to win over this female lead. He hadn’t expected the progress to exceed his imagination.

Chen Tianming said with a gentle smile: ”It’s getting late. Would you like me to take you back?”

Under normal circumstances, Chi Wange definitely would not have agreed, or would have even flatly refused. However, this time she hesitated. She didn’t know what she thought of, her pretty face flushed red, and she gave a soft ”Mn.”

Chen Tianming’s lips curled up slightly, unnoticeably, and quickly returned to their original state. He thought to himself: ”It seems that even an academic genius can be a hopeless romantic. A single afternoon of casual chatting can make her trust me to this extent. Come to think of it... otherwise, Zhou Cai, a taxi driver, even with a system, wouldn’t be able to conquer her.”

Chen Tianming pondered in his heart, but his hands were not slow at all. After picking up Chi Wange in the black sedan he had specially changed into, he clearly felt the body of the female lead beside him tense up. However, what Chi Wange didn’t expect was that Chen Tianming didn’t do anything to her along the way. Under her guidance, he took her back to her rental apartment at a moderate pace.

”We’re here.” Chen Tianming reminded her. ”...Oh!” Chi Wange was half a beat slow, then her pretty face flushed red, and she opened the door and got out of the car in a flustered manner.

Just at this moment, Zhou Cai, who had nothing to do, happened to come down to take out the trash. For the past few days, he had been staying at home, ordering takeout for meals, and the trash can filled up quickly, so he often needed to come down to dump the trash. But just as he walked to the stairwell, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a familiar figure. He looked closely—and saw his goddess, Chi Wange, getting out of a strange vehicle in a flustered manner!

He was instantly stunned on the spot! After seeing Chen Tianming in the car clearly, he felt like he had been doused with a bucket of hot water in winter! He was completely dumbfounded! He couldn’t help but rub his eyes! He somewhat doubted if there was something wrong with his eyes! Chi Wange actually came back in a strange man’s car?

Looking at Chi Wange’s shy expression again, she was practically like a little girl who had just fallen in love—was this still the aloof academic genius he knew? ”How is this possible?”

”Hmm?” Chen Tianming heard the system notification sound that suddenly rang in his ears, and he raised an eyebrow slightly. He subconsciously looked around, and his gaze instantly locked onto Zhou Cai not far away. The Son of Destiny is also here? It really is a small world! A trace of killing intent instantly flashed in his eyes! But it was quickly covered up.

Just at this moment, Chi Wange, who had originally intended to leave, seemed to have thought of something, turned around, and walked back. ”I, let’s add each other on WeChat?”

When she said this, she was obviously a bit stiff. Her pretty face could be seen flushing red even in the dark. She didn’t dare to look him in the eye. Obviously, Chi Wange had never done the thing of asking for a boy’s WeChat before. She appeared very nervous!

Chen Tianming’s eyebrows twitched slightly. Immediately after, he revealed a gentle smiling face and said: ”Okay.”

Ding! Accompanied by the sound of a successful addition, Chi Wange suddenly seemed to have gotten some treasure and revealed a smile. She hugged her phone to her chest, and then waved at Chen Tianming!

Chen Tianming chuckled inwardly. He discovered that although this female lead was an aloof academic genius on the surface, once her heart was opened, she was like a little girl, appearing somewhat innocent. Chen Tianming looked at the smiling face outside the window and also waved his hand. At the same time, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he glanced unnoticeably at Zhou Cai, who was standing not far away watching all this.

And Zhou Cai, who was watching all this from the side, had his mouth wide open, his face full of shock! Was this still the Chi Wange he knew? [Protagonist Zhou Cai’s mentality explodes, Villain Points + 812] [...]
