YM778.TV Chapter 440
It was not something she wanted to correct; it was just too fun to watch her husband troll their son, similar to making a child believe that Santa exists. She couldn’t wait to throw their son into a normal world and see what would happen.

A few moments ago, to the time when Silvia left the scene...
Lu Kai was never as popular as one would think. It was more obvious now, by how Elera and Riley showed their nonchalant attitude toward him. Victor’s relationship with Elera caused her to get bullied and ostracised more often, and he wondered if he would be able to prevent it if his wife was in the same situation.
Lu Kai switched his gaze between the posters on the walls (Elera) and the actual person, “The first time I met you, you were trying to prevent a bullying scene. Your concern for another student’s safety really made me want to help you. What a righteous person. That’s what I thought of you until I saw how you only targeted Silvia, but not Victor Egerton, the man who hit Riley.”
Elera felt herself breaking out in cold sweat when the male lead looked at her with a complicated gaze, “Don’t put Victor and Silvia on the same page. They are completely different.” Was Nathaniel going to take revenge on her for Silvia’s sake? It was true that Riley also befriended Victor even though he had been bullied by Victor religiously in the past. She was so nervous that she didn’t notice that the supporting male lead had also arrived, “Victor is a man, who learns from his past mistakes.”
Not bothering to hide his teasing smile, Nathaniel flicked his fingers, causing all the Anti-Elera Mai posters around the school to drop on the floor and shatter like a thin sheet of ice, “You seem to be afraid of me. Is it because of my relationship with Silvia?” Under Nathaniel’s imposing presence, the crowd around him dispersed, including the group of bullies.
Viktor stood behind Elera, wrapping his arm around her shoulders intimately, “What made the school prince bestow us a visit today?” How was Nathaniel able to maintain such huge popularity despite falling in ranks and power? Nathaniel was definitely the kindest and most charismatic male lead he had ever seen. That man would help others without asking anything in return like a goody two shoes, seemingly having no enemies.
.....
Lu Kai remembered how Bing Shi dealt with her jealous fans and frowned at Victor’s and Elera’s interlocked hands, his obvious envy causing a little misunderstanding, “I was just thinking about the reason behind the sudden change in politics, and whether it had something to do with the relationship between our students.”
Instead of protecting the female lead with blind support, Nathaniel showed her enough bias to not make himself look like a stupid fool, “The Hauxley clan plans to keep a neutral standing in the matter regarding the LeCléres’ bankruptcy.”
Elera immediately felt that something was amiss. Weren’t the leads supposed to be madly in love with each other? Was the male lead trying to break free from the plot and his destined female lead?
· · ———- · ???· ———- · ·
Bing Shi thought Lu Kai would play an infuriated male lead in love. He mentioned that Nathaniel would show his obsession with Silvia before the whole world and so far, she got ‘a play hard to get’ man.
|”You don’t act like a male lead in love with a female lead.”|
Was Lu Kai trying to add some logic behind his strange fondness of Silvia? Absolutely not. He missed seeing his wife showing her crush on him publicly (like in the showbiz arc). He would love to skip the chasing part and go the flash marriage route immediately, but he had some standards.
|What is there to love? Have you seen what everyone has become?|
|”Everyone evolved into big whales while I’m stuck in a plankton stage?”|
Riley established one of the most successful robotic companies in the world. Elera, the previous business queen, had also founded a company that focused on e-commerce. Damon purged most of the criminals and Victor had been building a stronghold outside of the barriers, contributing to the black market hugely. While Silvia... that girl had been making out with other men for a few bucks.
|All the things Silvia has ever offered to me were an embarrassment and endless cringe.|
Her husband preferred to be chased instead of doing the chasing, but how was anyone supposed to charm someone with such a heavy load of calculative diplomacy and unflappable calm? If Bing Shi and Xuan Mu didn’t share such an intimate past, she doubted she would be able to seduce the current him now.
|”Hubby. Why would the nice girl in a love triangle most often choose the jerk character instead of the nice guy?”|
Lu Kai was a bit irked by her question.
|The jerk is always more handsome, rich, and overall better than everything except being nice, or she had been previously hurt by a fake nice guy.|
|”No. Per evolution rules, it’s for the nice guy to end up with a jerk girl. I obviously want a nice man, and that’s why I have to be jerky around you.”|
As Bing Shi pulled out her ridiculous pick-up lines one after another, her heart jumped in surprise when all the posters around her shattered on the floor.
|So if I want a nice girl too, do I have to be rough sometimes?|
When Ezikiel and Silvia reached a more inconspicuous corner, he tilted his head over her face, startling her bum with a hard spank because interrupting her full mouth with his tongue was out of the question, “If you don’t hurry up and suck that food bank’s dick, someone else is going to steal it from you.”
“Who dares?” Bing Shi immediately marched in Nathaniel’s direction, not questioning his obvious hints of possible infidelity in the future.
|”Whoever wants to kidnap MuMu, let me salute their bravery.”|
“...” Lu Kai chuckled as he readied himself to go against his wife’s charms. In essence, he had too much love to give, but at the same time, it was too fragile, and no one was better equipped to handle it than she was.
