My Villain Is Super Sweet (GL) - CHAPTER 22

Gu Qingci felt for the first time that his understanding of Lin Lang was still too one-sided.

Just knowing that she runs a company, is capable, has good character, has principles, and conducts herself with standards. It seems that the side of her that is presented to others is always
glamorous and impressive.

She had never seen Lin Lang so filled with hostility.

If it were a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in love, she would probably just cover her face and shout, “So handsome, so handsome,” upon seeing this scene. As a twenty-four-year-old adult woman,
Gu Qingci’s first reaction was, “Is Lin Lang’s aggressive side controllable?”

If a person is emotionally unstable and can lose control at any moment, it is inherently a particularly dangerous situation. If this person also has terrifying combat power, it becomes even more frightening.

She was just thinking this when she heard her roommates chatting away, completely oblivious.

“Ah, she was really super cool just now!” “Ah, she was really super cool just now!”

“Yes, he’s so handsome it makes you want to scream!”

“Sure enough, when women become cool, men have nothing to do.”

“Wow, when she kicked me with a flying kick, she hit my heart.”

Gu Qingci watched as her roommates stood there, drooling and dreamily resting their chins on their hands, saying “so handsome, so handsome,” their visible girlish hearts fluttering.

She had a puzzled look on her face, her eyes full of confusion, and she just couldn’t understand.

So, in their dormitory, is she the only mature adult woman?

These three, no matter how reliable they seem on the surface, have such a strong girlish side?

People without distractions are infatuated without any burdens, while those with ulterior motives are worried sick about the uncontrollable possibility of domestic violence.

Neither side was interfering with each other, both were watching Lin Lang, and for a moment, it was quite harmonious.

By the time the police arrived, in addition to handing over the four suspects who had intentionally caused harm, Lin Lang also sent several phone recordings.

These scoundrels indeed have some issues.

Under Lin Lang’s warm hospitality, they confessed everything while crying and wailing.

Because there were too many people, Lin Lang couldn’t get on the snowmobile. Under her roommates’ enthusiastic invitation, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and ski with them.

This isn’t the thrill of a challenging level; it’s clearly the thrill of courting disaster! Even though she tried her best to control her speed, she still came down the advanced slope in a cold
sweat.

This matter has been delayed for quite a while; by the time a few people came down, it was almost two o’clock.

Everyone is tired and hungry, just wanting to finish up quickly and go back to eat!

Tang Yisheng was deliberately knocked off the snow slope by someone and fell quite hard. After an examination, he was found to have a mild concussion, which just made him feel a bit dizzy. His left
calf, which was hit, was not broken or fractured, just badly bruised, making him limp as he walked.

Gu Qingci looked at Lin Lang, seeking her opinion: “Can you recite a passage from Tang Yisheng?”

“Sure, there’s nothing wrong with that.” Lin Lang readily agreed, leaning in a bit closer, lowering his voice, and whispering in her ear, “What’s wrong, did I scare you?”

Why do you look so worried?

Gu Qingci looked at her with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

It’s still because of you!

The way you were so aggressive just now scared me!

Lin Lang’s eyes were clear and innocent as he looked back.

At this moment, she no longer appeared fierce; instead, her eyes were clear and innocent, as if she were unaware of the world’s troubles, showing not a hint of malice. She was as sweet as could be.

Such a posture made Gu Qingci’s heart soften.

Wondering if she’s being a bit too stubborn? Lin Lang usually doesn’t bully the weak, and the two times she intervened, she was just helping those in need.

Moreover, both her roommates and the police who arrived earlier praised her highly.

Lin Lang, who was carrying Tang Yisheng on his back, deliberately squeezed over to walk alongside her, occasionally bumping against her on purpose, and clichédly comforting her, “Don’t be afraid,
it’s okay, I’m here with you.”

Gu Qingci gave her a light push, not using any real force, just putting on a show. While pushing her, he muttered, “Walk properly, don’t get so close, you’re crowding me!”

But the tone was soft and delicate, lacking any intimidation.

On Lin Lang’s back, Tang Yisheng: …

When the steering wheel is not in your own hands, you really can’t control your fate, and you could be taken to a place you never wanted to be at any moment.

Help!

She doesn’t want to be here!

Aside from the unexpected little episode of skiing that morning, everyone had an enjoyable weekend.

Especially after this “hero saves the beauty” incident, Lin Lang successfully won over Gu Qingci’s roommates. The two groups broke the ice smoothly, and the previous unfamiliarity and barriers
melted away at lightning speed, leading to unexpectedly harmonious interactions.

We’ve progressed to the point where we can add each other on WeChat!

It’s just that Gu Qingci looked at it and always felt that something was off.

However, this slight feeling of unease was quickly cast aside by her, because the person who had called her before finally couldn’t resist and arranged to meet with her for a discussion on Monday morning.

When Gu Qingci arrived at the agreed-upon café, the person had already arrived first.

“Junior, over here.”

Gu Qingci turned to look at the voice, and the once thin and frail, scholarly and bookish senior brother had already transformed into a successful businessman. He appeared cultured and refined,
exuding the demeanor of a scholarly merchant.

Gu Qingci slightly nodded, “Hello, Senior Brother Luo.”

Senior Brother Luo greeted Gu Qingci with a smile, asking with great concern, “Junior Sister, you don’t seem to have changed much over the past few years. How have you been abroad these past two
years?”

“Not bad, I’ve come across quite a few interesting things.”

“That’s not bad either; it can broaden your horizons and enhance your understanding.”

He thought to himself, this junior is still studying abroad, hasn’t been beaten down by society, doesn’t understand the darkness of the world, so she should be fine, right?

Just looking at Gu Qingci’s calm expression, with the usual indifference between her brows, it seemed that nothing could move her.

He wasn’t sure again.

Brother Luo laid out a whole bunch of things, like how difficult it is to start a business, how hard it is to secure funding, how capital wants to interfere with company operations, and how his
authority as the founder is increasingly limited, and so on.

Playing the sympathy card again, this is his hard work, he can’t let capital run wild and ruin the company.

Finally, he hesitantly got to the point: “It’s like I mentioned to you before. I want to buy back the shares you hold, at ten times the original investment amount. How about that?”

Finally getting to the point.

Gu Qingci let out a huge sigh of relief in his heart.

If we can get straight to the point, who has the patience to keep listening to someone ramble on?

“Ten times?” Gu Qingci repeated softly, a hint of meaning in his gaze as it fell on Senior Brother Luo’s face. “Is this the price you think is appropriate, Mr. Luo?”

She couldn’t even be bothered to call him “senior brother” anymore and directly switched to “Mr. Luo,” her eyes filled with mockery.

Mr. Luo, with his big face, forced a smile and said, “The company is indeed going through tough times…”

“Since it’s difficult, it should be about expanding financing, right? Wanting to buy back equity, no matter how tough it is, it should be limited, right?” Gu Qingci said slowly, “Three years ago,
the eight million I invested was a timely help, not just a luxury, right?”

Can this be denied? No!

Mr. Luo nodded with difficulty: “Yes. If it weren’t for your investment, the project wouldn’t have been able to start.”

Gu Qingci shrugged his shoulders: “That’s it. Back then, I invested in you, risking losing everything. Now that you’ve made it, if you want to buy back, at least it should be with sincerity, right?

The current market price is between thirteen to fourteen times. Mr. Luo, you just open your mouth and want to buy back at a price lower than the market price?”

She sneered, “Do you think I’m a saint?”

Having his little scheme exposed, Mr. Luo wasn’t embarrassed and continued to play the victim: “You know, company valuations are always a bit inflated; they never actually reach ten times.”

Implied, he is offering a price higher than the market rate.

Gu Qingci nodded, “Then there’s no need to discuss it further. I’ll just continue holding it. After all, I don’t lack this bit of money.”

Senior Brother Luo: ……

Ah, these wicked rich people!

This is almost exactly what Gu Qingci said back when he decided to invest eight million.

The difference is, back then, when Mr. Luo heard those words, he was overjoyed; now, he hates them just as much!

It’s impossible not to negotiate. The two of them stubbornly went back and forth, and in the end, Mr. Luo offered fifteen times the amount, but Gu Qingci didn’t respond. Instead, with a smile, he
said, “It’s always been you, Mr. Luo, who sets the terms. How about I propose a condition too? I’m not short on money; I just want to do something I’m interested in. How about this: I’ll trade the
EF8 independent laboratory, including all the R

Mr. Luo’s expression changed slightly.

After a long pause, he forced a smile and said, “You’re joking, right, junior?”

Gu Qingci shrugged and generously said, “It’s okay, you can take your time to think it over. Whenever you feel ready, we can talk again.”

Anyway, she’s not the one who’s anxious.

The two parted ways on bad terms.

Gu Qingci was humming a little tune as she returned to the hotel.

Seeing her so happy and full of herself, Lin Lang, who had been restless all morning in the hotel with all sorts of guesses and wild imaginations, was not pleased.

In a sarcastic tone, he said, “Oh, Miss, did you just come back from seeing your sweetheart?”

The impact of these words was too great; Gu Qingci’s face immediately changed, and he made a retching expression.

This is simply an insult!

The young lady was utterly disgusted, stormed over in anger, grabbed the cushion from the sofa, and hit Lin Lang with it, shouting, “Who are you insulting?! I’ll let you talk nonsense! I’ll let you
talk nonsense!”

Lin Lang was completely dazed after being beaten up by the young lady.

I was confused for a moment, but then I understood. The young lady’s reaction didn’t seem like she was going to see someone she loved; it was more like she was going to see an enemy.

Ah, this…

Did I misunderstand?

So, there really isn’t any baseless love rival, huh?

Her originally low spirits soared in an instant, an indescribable happiness making the corners of her mouth involuntarily lift.

The young lady’s strength was barely noticeable when it hit him; Lin Lang easily subdued her.

To avoid hurting her, Lin Lang almost pushed her onto the sofa, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, “I’m very happy.”

The voice carried a hint of unreality.

Gu Qingci was even angrier! Her chest rose and fell rapidly.

How could there be such a detestable person like Lin Lang in this world!

She only feels happy when she manages to make someone angry!

She has a bit of a crush on a guy like that. She must be blind!

Lin Lang looked at her, almost peering into the depths of her soul, and emphasized, “You’re not going to see your beloved, I’m very happy!”

Gu Qingci, who was struggling to rise, understood the meaning behind Lin Lang’s words and froze completely.
