"My goodness! Am I seeing things? President Shen is actually defending Young Master Xu."
"Is this really the President Shen I know?"
"I think President Shen is doing the right thing. What's Young Master Xu's status compared to that man's? He wants to hit someone? I think he's out of control!"
"This is all business between big shots. Why should small fries like us get involved? Ridiculous!"
The onlookers suddenly sided with Xu Mo.
The protagonist's halo, which usually dumbs down others, wasn't having much effect here.
You see, when others hit someone, they end up in detention, but when the protagonist does it, nothing happens.
Usually, the crowd would cheer for the protagonist, praise him, and girls would swoon over him.
These are all typical tropes in wish-fulfillment novels.
Xu Mo was bewildered. This situation wasn't right!
"System, these people are sick, aren't they?"
[Ding! Host, you've automatically equipped the anti-dumbing-down halo!]
[People, events, and objects within five meters of you will be less affected by the protagonist's dumbing-down halo]
Of course, Shen Manni couldn't hear his internal dialogue with the system.
Nor could she hear the system's rewards and notifications.
The only thing she could hear was Xu Mo's internal criticism of the plot.
Neither of them was aware of this fact.
"Damn it! System, you can't play like this. Take away my anti-dumbing-down halo right now."
"I don't need these onlookers on my side, speaking up for me."
"Shouldn't they be pointing at me, the big villain, and thinking how cool the protagonist is right now?"
Xu Mo was going crazy.
This wasn't following the script he'd been given!
He had all his lines prepared.
And the scenes were supposed to be limited.
Now these people were ad-libbing, and worse, they were criticizing the protagonist in defense of the villain.
At this moment, Xu Mo desperately wanted to ask them:
Did you guys get the wrong script?
Lin Fan was stunned, looking at Shen Manni with a bewildered expression, "Shen... President Shen, don't you hate him?"
As the War God Dragon King, he had his own pride!
He absolutely wouldn't allow any woman by his side to say a single word in defense of another man!
And now, Shen Manni had directly violated this taboo!
Shen Manni looked at him coldly, "Who I hate is none of your business."
Lin Fan was rendered speechless by these words.
His current identity was just a small security guard in the CBD building, not the internationally renowned War God or the Dragon King of Dragon King Hall!
A barely noticeable flash of cruelty passed through Lin Fan's eyes.
The colder and more aloof Shen Manni acted, the more it awakened the most primal desires within him!
He was determined to completely conquer this woman!
[Hey, hey, you crooked-mouthed Dragon King War God, are you an idiot? Just because Shen Manni is being stupid, you're following suit? She tells you not to hit me, and you actually don't?]
[You're supposed to be the almighty War God, yet you're listening to a woman? And a woman so stupid she's beyond help at that]
[And you, Shen Manni, I've told you before, if you're sick, go get treatment, don't hang around here]
[I don't want you speaking up for me, tell your Dragon King boyfriend to hit me!]
[You're the female lead, you're supposed to be on the protagonist's side, I'm the villain, remember?]
Xu Mo was roaring internally, wanting to rush up and point at Shen Manni's nose, shouting out everything in his heart.
But even without Xu Mo saying it out loud,
Shen Manni, standing nearby, heard his internal rant.
Her delicate body couldn't help but tremble.
Her eyes seemed capable of shooting flames!
Even if this was the world inside a book, Xu Mo calling her stupid over and over again,
She'd had enough.
"You're the one who's on the protagonist's side..."
Shen Manni's eyes looked murderous as she couldn't help but shout this sentence out loud!
But in the next moment, she suddenly realized her voice had disappeared.
Her cherry-like lips opened and closed slightly.
To outsiders, it just looked like Shen Manni had smacked her lips.
Nothing special happened after that.
If Shen Manni wasn't too shocked before, it was because she had treated Xu Mo's internal monologue with skepticism.
Because people always need to find a reason to convince themselves.
The world she had lived in for over twenty years was actually a novel world.
If you told anyone this, no one would accept it.
But now, Shen Manni believed it, completely and utterly.
She tried again and found that she still couldn't speak about the plot of the novel.
In other words, these things were only known to her, and she couldn't share this knowledge with others.
Shen Manni was a bit dazed.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan had noticed someone in the crowd pointing a phone at him, and anger rose in his heart as he pointed at that person and said,
"What do you think you're doing?"
"Hmph, you're just a small security guard daring to hit the young master of Xu Corporation. I'm going to make you a trending topic!"
"Yeah! Come on, hit him! What are you scared of? I'm waiting to see the drama unfold!"
Others in the crowd also took out their phones and opened their camera apps.
Lin Fan's brows furrowed slightly, then smoothed out as he quickly understood everything!
He looked at Shen Manni with gratitude!
So when Shen Manni told him not to act just now, it wasn't out of concern for Xu Mo.
She was worried that these people would record a video of him and upload it to the internet!
Seeing this, Xu Mo suddenly drew in a sharp breath.
[Damn! I'll be damned! As expected of the female lead! Such a delicate and vicious mind!]
[Sorry, sorry, I misjudged earlier. Shen Manni, you're still you, still the female lead who's on the same side as the protagonist]
Xu Mo was extremely relieved, thinking he had misjudged the female lead Shen Manni's character.
He never expected that all of this was just his own overthinking.
Seeing the female lead help the male lead, this loving scene,
He felt much more comfortable.
Shen Manni, who was still in a daze, was pulled back to reality by Xu Mo's internal monologue!
She was now furious, angry beyond words!
What did he mean by being on the same side as the protagonist?
If I'm on anyone's side, it's yours!
You're going to be so mad, you bastard!
Shen Manni glared fiercely at Xu Mo, then strode towards the company's main entrance!
She needed to calm down now.
To sort out her thoughts, to accept this impossible reality!
All of this needed time.
And if she continued to stay here with Xu Mo, she felt her lungs might explode from anger!
That would be counterproductive!
Instead of being annoyed to death by Xu Mo's sycophantic behavior, she might end up being angered to death by him.
"Manni, don't go! You haven't agreed to my request yet!"
Xu Mo made a symbolic attempt to stop her.
He once again forced a devoted, puppy-like expression on his face.
But inside, he was overjoyed.

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power.

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
