Chapter 32: Suicide
Chapter 32: Suicide
In all stories and worlds, the protagonists were always more unkillable and unbeatable than even the toughest cockroach alive.
For example, even if the male lead was shot to the heart at a point-blank distance, that fired bullet would unmistakably and conveniently miss any major arteries or anything that would lead to his death.
The male lead would at most only fall into a coma, but even if that turned out to be the case, his luck would guarantee enough consciousness in him so that he would be able to express his love and dramatic words to the female lead or anyone else around there.
That was how powerful their plot armor was. In comparison, Jiang Li's plot armor which shielded him against Xie Na's punch before was nothing but a level 1 weapon contending against a protagonist's level 10 item.
Precisely because of this that Jiang Li never planned to kill Cheng Yijun nor Bai Qing using a real knife.
He knew that even if he goes real crazy and tries to stage a seemingly foolproof accident for them, those two would surely find ways to survive.
Heck, they actually would not even have to come up with a survival plan themselves. Their luck and the world would do all the work for them while they deepen their relationship.
Aware of this, or more like, informed by the system before it was force-muted, Jiang Li chose to just try the roundabout and funnier method.
Anyway, it was not like he fabricated any charges against that male lead. All he did was used the truth.
And he was annoyed because he knew, that lucky Cheng bastard would not fall down with just these.
"Is this the fault of my low identity?"
One time inside his office, he murmured while resting his eyes and flexing his wrists that got a bit rigid from too much typing. He referred to how the attacks would surely not be able to kill the Cheng Corporation.
In front of him, the computer was on, and every second a new desktop notification would be flashing, reminding him of incoming emails from all sorts of people from their line of business.
He ignored all of it and went back to what he was working on earlier. It was a series of codes. Which he would only test-run once he drops by one of his bases located south of the city.
A wide grin emerged on his lips. If one attack was not enough, just rain down more!
The COO of the Jiang Corporation looked like he was having so much fun hence Xie Na who saw him like this from the transparent side of the access-controlled door did not immediately enter.
She waited outside until that annoying and crazy look was gone.
Apart from her, no one knew how hard it was to work for someone who seemed like he, alongside her brother, was always plotting the destruction of the world.
...
That morning, if Cheng Yijun's side became too busy trying to cover up the matters and defend themselves, Bai Qing's was incredibly peaceful.
It was so peaceful that the girl who just lost her purity to someone she was not targeting fell into self-doubt, self-pity, and paranoia.
Her anger made her seek out the damn second-generation guy who was actually her acquaintance.
That fury was quelled for a short time after she heard that the man was sent to the hospital due to the injuries to the thing between his legs.
However, a few minutes later, it shot up again when she remembered the shame she went through and the failure of her plans.
Bai Qing was a selfish person so it never occurred to her that her accomplice's future was doomed due to her scheme. He would no longer have any descendants, and since he was caught sexually assaulting someone, he would probably go to jail too. Even if the law allows him to bail himself out, the record would forever remain, a stain that the society would definitely frown upon.
Maybe this was karma, or simply a divine punishment for trying to sully a female lead.
But Bai Qing didn't know and perhaps, has no plan to know.
When the woman reached home, she only cried for a few minutes, and then changed to another dress.
Not long after, she arrived at school. To those who asked her why her gait was slightly off, she would only flash her signature smile and people would immediately come up with their own conclusion.
It didn't take long for the whole campus to know that their lovely belle was injured on the legs.
Maybe it was due to this that apart from Bai Qing's suitors and admirers from both sexes, her best friend who knew of her real personality came over to check on her.
The repeater, violet-wigged woman came to her side and whispered, "Hey, I've read the news this early morning and saw a white-dressed woman on the headlines. I recognized the dress as the one we bought together last time we went shopping. Is that you?"
Bai Qing already saw that one, hence she only raised her brow, pretending she was not the scandalous girl there.
"You're referring to the one linked with the Cheng's heir, right? Are you kidding me? Why would I be that person?"
The other woman gave her a doubting glance.
Bai Qing kept her pretense. The matter was obviously not something glorious. Why would she admit it?
Thankfully, her acting worked, and Cao Hua, Xie Na's former best friend, did not continue asking about it anymore.
The violet-wigged woman looked around and after making sure that nobody was nearby, she whispered again to Bai Qing in a hushed voice, "Since you said it's not you, let's not talk about it then. I'm more concerned about the other thing."
"What is it?" Annoyed, Bai Qing met Cao Hua's eyes.
"... I just heard this disturbing news from another person. But the girlfriend of that suitor of yours, Zhao Zhen, from the Music department, seemed to have committed suicide last midnight..."
