Little Scheme

"I don't know." Little Glutinous Rice's answer was firm.

Ning Wan almost choked to death.

"Can't you take some responsibility? You can't even differentiate between good and bad as a system. How do you think you can protect Huo Yuan?" Ning Wan said angrily.

"That's why I asked you to complete this mission!" Little Glutinous Rice did not feel guilty at all.

Ning Wan gritted her teeth.

"Well then, do you think there's anything wrong with this Tutor?" Little Glutinous Rice finally realized that it had gone overboard, so it raised a question to discuss.

Ning Wan turned around and lay on the pillow. "I think he's far more interested in me than in Huo Yuan!"

Ning Wan had this intuition as a woman.

"Oh, I see! I think he might be a book transmigrator!" Little Glutinous Rice said.

"What do you mean? Is it your intuition?" Ning Wan asked lazily.

"Think about it. Let's assume that he's interested in you and pursues you. Wouldn't a woman without a husband's love be easily bewitched by him? Then, the two of you would get together, murder your husband and he would become Huo Yuan's stepfather. Wouldn't that change Huo Yuan's life? No, I'm feeling more and more that he's a transmigrator!" Little Glutinous Rice's tone gradually became firm.

Ning Wan was so angry that she laughed. "Are you delusional about being persecuted? Can you tell me how you deduced that he and I would harm my husband and made him become Huo Yuan's stepfather?"

"Didn't you say that he's far more interested in you than in Huo Yuan?" Little Glutinous Rice argued.

"But you can't deduce that I want to conspire with him to murder someone, right? Besides, I'm not interested in him at all. I am not bewitched by him!" Ning Wan was speechless.

Little Glutinous Rice sighed. "You don't know. After the barrier in our world went wrong, the magnetic field was affected by those with ill intentions and deduced many versions. Therefore, I can't sense what kind of script the different book transmigrators obtained. They were all oriented according to their respective intentions, so I really can't tell."

Ning Wan understood.

"Understood. Then are we countering every move now? I should treat everyone who approaches Huo Yuan as an imaginary enemy and carefully investigate them to ensure that they are harmless to Huo Yuan, right?"

"Yes, yes. I told you I didn't find the wrong person, right? Only an intelligent person like you can protect our male lead!" Little Glutinous Rice praised Ning Wan generously.

Ning Wan was amused. "Alright, there's no need to curry favor me. I'm not Little Huo Yuan!"

Little Glutinous Rice chuckled.

Ning Wan closed her eyes and sighed. "Alright, let's observe again. I want to sleep for a while."

Little Glutinous Rice knew that it was in the wrong and did not dare to disturb her anymore.

After a long while, Ning Wan suddenly said, "Can I kill him if we confirm that he's up to no good?"

"Huh?"

Ning Wan felt that the immature system probably shivered.

"Well, we can't kill people. W-we are law-abiding citizens. Our male lead is the future business overlord. He's an all-powerful figure. How can he have a bad record? You can't have it either as his guardian." Little Glutinous Rice went from stammering to being righteous.

Ning Wan sneered disapprovingly. "Alright! Don't be nervous. I won't if I can't. Can't I hire someone else to do it if I can't do it myself? Don't worry, I can't scheme against that big boss but it doesn't mean that I can't do it with others!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Let's get someone else to do it for us." Little Glutinous Rice was glad that this collaborator was no longer conflicted about doing the deed herself.

At this moment, Chi Nan did not know that one of the women in this family was sharpening her knife.

He followed Huo Yuan around the classroom that the butler had prepared for them. He was once again convinced by money. How good was it to be rich!

It was just a classroom for a child's cultural class yet it was decorated with everything— From books to teaching tools, from the sofa, tables, and chairs to Lego toys that were casually thrown away. It all revealed the wealth of this family!

It didn't matter. One day, these would all belong to him!

Chi Nan secretly cheered himself on. After witnessing such a scene, he became even more determined to obtain it all.
