Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 161: Ye Xinya (3)

The main protagonist, as said earlier, was that courageous girl from earlier, Ren Lian. She was an e-Sports player. At the same time, she was her school's sole black belter. Unfortunately, a year ago, her parents passed away due to a road accident.

She had no choice but to live with her uncle's family. But that uncle's wife was not willing to raise her and used the fact that she was an e-Sports player to accuse her of being an internet addict.

Ren Lian's attempt to help in their finances using the money earned from playing in competitions was simply disregarded. By listing reasons like the sharp rise in the internet and electricity bill, and forging test papers showing Ren Lian's dropping grades, the aunt successfully managed to convince the female lead's uncle to admit her into the disciplinary school. The woman knew what that place really was, so by doing this, she was hoping the girl would just die and not come back as an eyesore or a burden again.

Ren Lian was not really heartbroken by this act. She was a 'come what may' type of person, her personality largely influenced by her late father who always said a person should be flexible and know how to adapt. Rigidness and dwelling too much on things that happened in the past would only make someone stagnant and unproductive.

Her father was awkward when giving advice but she always made sure to commit the useful ones to her mind. This time, one of those helped her in immediately standing back to her feet again.

But of course, this doesn't mean she didn't harbor grudge against her scheming aunt. There were just things that could not be forgiven nor forgotten.

If that woman doesn't like her, why didn't she just drive her out of the house or send her to an orphanage? Even she couldn't stomach the kind of institution she got thrown to. So once she got out of this place, she vowed to immediately seek her uncle's family for explanation and compensation.

Thankfully the heavens were on her side and allowed her to meet some people, especially the male lead, who helped her break away from there. Through their help, she not only managed to straighten the uncle's family, but also made it into a good school, got together with the male lead, and married into his family to enjoy a doted life.

As for the male lead, well, his background was a lot more colorful than the girl. His name was Han Su and he was already a competent hacker despite being sixteen years old. His family owned a large enterprise, and he had a twin who performed a bit worse than the other.

Maybe due to the male lead's stoic character that the parents came to favor his younger twin more. Even so, this twin was always feeling insecure at his older brother's existence. The male lead was always top at school, could always get things done or answer things much earlier than him. He was also more popular and cooler in people's eyes.

When the insecurities due to the male lead's intelligence and excellence reached the boiling point, the younger of the twins just decided he had enough.

He framed Han Su of hacking and sabotaging his parent's company in hopes that this could get him kicked out of the family. In that way, he would become the best. And no longer had to sleep at night feeling like he would forever be in his brother's shadow.

Who knows where the twin got the evidence but the parents believed him. They got angry. They quite disliked their cold and uncute son anyway so after chastising him for wantonly accessing the internet and modern devices to cause their company's recent losses, they immediately sent him to the rehabilitation school, even paying three years of schooling fees in advance.

The male was innocent of the charge. How could he accept the undeserved accusations and punishments? He only needed a few minutes to realize it was the jealous twin he never bothered with who set him up. Feeling anger bubbling inside him, he vowed to return and made the backstabber pay for his actions. He swore it would be very easy to do due to his accomplishments at such a young age.

On his first day, he tried to escape but unfortunately, he was caught and then punished to stay in the pitch-black room for a week. It was already his third day there, surviving through spoiled bread and a bottle of water. He had never suffered this much before but he kept his calm and only silently added the suffering to the list of what he had to pay back.

Instead of wallowing in depression, he spent the first few days thinking things through, wondering why their parents were so biased against him and how that annoying twin of his managed to frame him.

On the third day, he already came up with the answers. Bored, he spent the rest of the time teasing the female neighbor who just suddenly joined him in confinement. Despite the rocky beginning, they started to get along and then had a good talk about the situation in the place.

A few days after they left the punishment room, they began to sneak behind the patrols and monitors' eyes to see each other. Amidst their unplanned dates, their foolproof plan to escape was hatched. They successfully escape and even managed to bring some people with them. As the leads avenge themselves, these few people helped seek justice from the high government for the other students and unveil the identity and crimes of the mastermind behind this school.

What came next? Well, what else but the usual evil people ended up dead and the leads and their subordinates lived happily ever after. 

He went through the memories twice, disappointed that throughout the scour, he didn't manage to find anybody who had a similar face with Jiang Ying Yue. He reckoned though that she was here. Guts told him she would never be far from the leads and danger.

When he passed by the shabby bulletin boards, he had confirmed a few important details about this school. There were around a hundred teachers and staff. Most of them were men in their forties and had large built. Not many knew but these people were actually from an underground gang which used to do many illegal things, like trafficking, blackmailing and prostitution. 

His face darkened. He was afraid that girls sent to this place had experienced greater hell than this place already was.

'She always has no memories of the past and could not retain her previous knowledge or abilities. It's dangerous to leave her alone. Her face and quiet character will turn her into a target here. I must find her and the villainess as soon as possible... Use system points if needed.'

After determining his next course of action, he unmuted the system and asked, 'How many points do I have so far, and how many are needed for that goal?' 

System: Er, host, a trial world gives a maximum of 100, but official worlds give 1000. 50 less 20 equals 30, plus 500, and another 1000 from the previous world. The total is 1530. It depends on which items related to your goal you'll buy. The cheapest will only cost you 30,000 points. It is enough to bring you back to your world, but then, it will be on the date you die. The other one is for 50,000 which can turn back the time to at least a few months before your death."

He closed his eyes. A decision already in his mind. Why would he go for the cheapest when it would definitely be a loss? What was the point then? If it was on the day he died, he wouldn't be able to save his parents and everything they worked hard for in their lives. He wouldn't be able to atone for his mistakes. He doesn't want that.

After he made up his mind, he then inquired, 'Will it cost the same if I go back to a previous mission world?'

The system knew what world he was referring too, so it answered, 'Sorry, host. No. It will cost double... It's already a stabilized world and no longer has to worry about a ticking time-bomb, cough, the villainess. Its full consciousness will definitely guard against foreign invaders, making our entry more difficult than the first. A large amount of divine power, I mean, points would be needed.'

'... Divine power?'

Status: Host, cough, don't mind me. It's just a fancy way of calling points. I've been muted for so long that I developed a hobby to browse some literary and fictional works from every world, hehe.

It once gave a BS-sounding reason, but Jiang Li did not comment on it. Silently, he left the dorm, ignoring his roommates he bumped into at the doorway.

It was afternoon, and teachers and guards were patrolling all over the premises. However, due to the commotion earlier, there were lesser patrols.

It seemed the majority of the staff and teaching personnel were holding a meeting on how to tighten their already tight security. Otherwise, they were making additional rules to torment the students.

This worked on Jiang Li's favor though, since he was no longer the qinggong master prince-general, but a simple weak-bodied male student. Using his limited knowledge in espionage, he took several turns and arrived in front of the principal's office before five pm.
