Quick Transmigration: The Gossip Master Took the Black Lotus Script - Chapter 40

A girl with sorrow written all over her face walked into the system space. Before she could even speak, Luo An directly absorbed her memories.

“What’s your wish?”

“I want Fu Sinian and Qin Xin, those two bastards, to taste my pain. I want their family to be ruined and destroyed!”

Luo An sorted through the memory a little, then nodded. “As you wish.”

“Luo An, you’ve changed! You weren’t like this before!”

“I told you long ago that I like Xin Xin. And yet you still dared to hurt her! Did you not take my words seriously?”

“Your jealous face disgusts me! If it weren’t for you using your family background to force me, I wouldn’t even have looked at you!”

…

The moment Luo An crossed over, her ears were nearly deafened by the middle-aged woman in front of her.

Oh! Middle-aged woman? That was Fu Sinian. Even though he was dressed in a sharp suit, with his hair perfectly styled and a polished elite’s aura, the way he nagged at the original owner like this—he reeked of auntie vibes.

Luo An lifted her gaze. There was no trace of sorrow in her eyes anymore. Instead, they brimmed with disdain.

“What’s Auntie rambling about?”

Auntie?

Fu Sinian froze for a few seconds, glanced around, and, seeing no one else, assumed Luo An was just dodging the question. His anger flared even more.

“Luo An, I’m talking to you! Don’t change the subject! And besides, it’s just us three here, what auntie? My sister-in-law’s at home! Don’t think you can get them to speak up for you again—I’m not buying it!”

“I’ll say it once more: the one I love is Xin Xin, not you, Luo An! If you dare to stir up trouble again, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Ha! Rude? We’ll see who’s rude to whom.

“Of course I know it’s just us here. That’s why I’m calling you. Just look at yourself—honestly, you’re even more like an auntie than our nanny at home!”

Auntie Wang had worked for the Luo family for over twenty years and was deeply trusted. Fu Sinian had met her plenty of times. Precisely because he knew her, this remark stung all the more!

Comparing him to a woman in her fifties? What an insult!

“Luo An, you’re looking for death!”

Fu Sinian’s fury burned. He raised his hand, ready to slap Luo An.

Just where did this watchdog get the courage from?

“Ah!”

No one saw how Luo An moved. They only saw Fu Sinian suddenly pull his hand back, clutching his wrist in pain, crying out before asking in disbelief, “You dare hit me?”

“Why wouldn’t I dare? What, are you made of gold? Can’t be touched?” Luo An asked with a laugh, then neatly landed two more slaps across his face.

“See? I really dare.”

Her face was full of innocence, like she was only proving her point. The sight almost drove Fu Sinian mad.

In his whole life, no one had so much as laid a finger on him. Now, in one go, he’d been beaten up—by a woman! A woman who supposedly loved him to death! How could anyone stomach that!

“Luo An! Are you insane? You think this will make me like you more? Keep dreaming!”

From behind Fu Sinian, the delicate little white flower Qin Xin sensed things going badly and quickly stepped forward, still putting on her weak, pitiful act.

“Miss Luo, please don’t be like this! I know it’s wrong of us, but Sinian and I truly love each other. Love doesn’t follow logic. If I could, if I could, I’d give him back to you.”

Then she looked pitifully at Fu Sinian, tears glistening in her eyes. “Sinian, maybe I should just leave. If I go far away, I won’t be tempted to see you anymore. If enough time passes, you’ll forget me and stay with Miss Luo…”

Her words trailed off into sobs. With her tearful, pitiful face, the makeup that screamed “innocence,” and the little white dress, she truly looked the part.

“Xin Xin, what nonsense are you talking about! I’ll never let you go, never! Luo An and I never had any real feelings. If she hadn’t threatened me with her family’s company, I never would’ve been with such a vicious woman in the first place.”

“I was wrong! If I’d known you’d come into my life, I never should’ve compromised. It’s my fault, making you suffer so much.”

Fu Sinian hugged his beloved tightly, declaring his love. But the woman in his arms wasn’t paying attention to a word he said—she was busy communicating with her system.

“This Luo An is such a fool! The more she acts like this, the more she pushes Sinian toward me. This task is almost too easy—it’s no challenge at all.”

“Isn’t that because my host is amazing?” the system flattered her. “Just keep provoking conflict between the two of them. The deeper Fu Sinian’s feelings for you, the better. And if needed, we can use some special methods.”

“I know. You don’t need to tell me. What’s the progress now?”

“Sixty percent. Raise his affection another ten points and you’ll unlock the ‘Slender Waist’ skill. With your beauty then, who could rival you?”

Qin Xin was delighted by the system’s flattery and threw herself into her performance even more.

Her hand slowly traced up Fu Sinian’s chest, patting lightly—half as if comforting, half as if seducing. “Sinian, don’t say that. This is my fate. How could I blame you?”

“Fate? I don’t believe in that. Whatever I, Fu Sinian, want—I will get it. No matter what it is!”

Her hand on his chest left Fu Sinian itching all over. He only wanted to drag her off to some secret place for a passionate tryst. “Luo An, I don’t care about the past! From now on, if you so much as touch Xin Xin, you’ll regret it.”

He tried to leave with Qin Xin in his arms, but would Luo An allow that?

“Hold up. You two can’t just finish your little act and leave. The audience hasn’t even tipped yet!”

With her aura blazing, Luo An’s heels clacked against the floor—“da, da, da”—each step echoing in Fu Sinian’s chest.

“What more do you want? Don’t push your luck—ah!”

Smack! Smack! Smack!

The crisp slaps rang through the private room as Luo An landed several more across his face. Then she turned to Qin Xin.

“Now you tell me. Who’s really the shameless one here?”

Of course Qin Xin knew what she meant. But how could she admit it? Terrified that Luo An might turn those slaps on her, she ducked behind Fu Sinian again.

“Miss Luo, I don’t understand what you mean. But hitting people is wrong. You can’t treat Sinian like this.”

The words made Fu Sinian’s heart swell with emotion. He immediately tugged Qin Xin further behind him.

“Just look at yourself, then look at Xin Xin. Any man would know who to choose! Even if I fell for Xin Xin, you shouldn’t blame me. You should reflect on your own—ah!”

He didn’t finish. Another scream tore from his throat, worse than before, because this time the blow landed somewhere… much more sensitive.
