Villain: I Quit Being A Good Guy After Reincarnation

"Tianming…" The young girl's tender pale hands gripped the hem of her dress, and her lovely petite face was filled with panic and nervousness.

Fragments of blue and white porcelain lay quietly on the ground.

At this moment, the ostentatious study room was extremely quiet. It was as if one could hear the girl's careful breathing.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to... I was just a little curious..."

The girl lowered her head, not daring to look at Chen Tianming.

"The God-level Villain System has been successfully activated and bound to host Chen Tianming."

"The young lady, Jiang Lianlian, has broken a blue and white porcelain vase worth several million yuan. Host, please make your choice."

"Option 1: Forgive her magnanimously and bear the consequences yourself. You will lose millions of yuan and gain Jiang Lianlian's favorable impression +1."

"Option 2: Insist on direct compensation. You will receive several million yuan and lose Jiang Lianlian's favorability -100."

"Option 3: 'Naughty little piggy, you don't want others to know about this, right?' Reward: Jiang Bei Company's trade secrets."

…

A second ago, Chen Tianming was forced onto a rooftop by debt collectors, and he fell off the roof when he lost his footing.

The next second, Chen Tianming realized that he was reborn. He was back when he was still a super-rich second-generation heir. He'd invited his good friend Jiang Bei to his house as a guest, but Jiang Bei's sister, Jiang Lianlian, accidentally broke a million-yuan porcelain vase.

Looking at the delicate girl before him, Chen Tianming couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

If he hadn't experienced a past life of being homeless, he would smile warmly and tell her, "It's okay. How can I ask Lianlian to pay for this little bit of money?"

Unfortunately, Jiang Bei had kicked him when he was down in his previous life, and Chen Tianming remembered every second of it. After his family was framed and went bankrupt, all his so-called friends changed their tune. His family and Jiang Bei's were old friends, and he had even dated Jiang Lianlian for a while.

In the end, when he came to borrow money, Jiang Bei asked him to finish the food in the dog bowl at the door before he would lend it to him.

Angered, Chen Tianming flung his hands and turned to leave when Jiang Bei ordered his men to hold him down and forced him to eat the dog food.

Jiang Bei laughed out loud as he watched. He even recorded it and posted the video to the upper-class social circle. After the shaming act, Jiang Bei stingily threw 2000 yuan at him!

And let's not forget Jiang Lianlian. When they were dating, Chen Tianming would grant all her requests. He still gave her a breakup fee even after she cheated on him with various other men. He didn't expect Jiang Lianlian to use his identity card to borrow money from loan sharks, making things worse for him.

Chen Tianming would never forget their humiliation!

Since the heavens had given him a second chance, morality was a thing of the past to Chen Tianming.

'What good is morality? Who does she think she is to use emotional blackmail on me?' he sneered.

This time, he would pay them back for everything he suffered!

"Of course, I choose the third option!" Chen Tianming said without hesitation.

Of what use were Jiang Lianlian's favorable impression points? It would only increase by 1 point if he spent millions on her, but if he made her lose money, her favorability would drop by 100 points.

Besides, Chen Tianming had yet to settle the score with this woman for cuckolding him.

Moreover, with his current wealth and status, even a hundred Jiang Lianlian wouldn't be worthy of him.

A million yuan was dispensable to Chen Tianming now. He didn't care about this bit of money at all.

However, the third option…

Jiang Bei Company's trade secrets?

Chen Tianming may have been ignorant and incompetent in his previous life, but because he hung around with a lot of riffraff, he knew about some scandals concerning the Jiang Bei Company. However, without conclusive evidence, his knowledge was useless. 

Now a great opportunity lies before him, so why not?

Jiang Lianlian was still looking at Chen Tianming miserably. The corners of Chen Tianming's mouth curled up. He knew Jiang Lianlian well; this was just her usual act.

Utilizing her beauty, she pretended to be a white lotus. Tsk tsk, her name matched her quite well.

Just as Chen Tianming was about to speak, he was interrupted by a male voice.

"Chen Tianming, why are you making things difficult for a girl like Lianlian? She already apologized. Why are you being so aggressive? Your family's rich enough anyways."

Chen Tianming turned around and realized an unruly youth was standing behind him.

Chen Tianming licked his lips and couldn't help but laugh.

The youth was another old acquaintance.

Duan Fei was Jiang Lianlian's future husband and Jiang Bei's future brother-in-law. When the two married, Chen Tianming gave them a betrothal gift of 520,000 yuan, but Duan Fei and Jiang Lianlian used his ID card to borrow cash from loan sharks and ran off with the money!

'Trying to guilt-trip me?' Chen Tianming sneered. 'Emotional blackmail is useless when one doesn't care for morals!'

Chen Tianming laughed coldly, "What do you mean, aggressive? I haven't said anything yet. You were the one implying Lianlian should compensate me." 

'Stepping on me to save the damsel in distress? Why don't you take a look at your status?'

Duan Fei couldn't refute Chen Tianming's comeback because Chen Tianming hadn't said anything yet. It was Duan Fei himself who was too anxious to make a good impression.

"Isn't that what you meant? Stop pretending; all you rich people have the same attitude!" 

Although he was being unreasonable, Duan Fei still deliberately placed Chen Tianming on a pedestal; so long as Chen Tianming wanted to maintain his good image, he definitely won't have Jiang Lianlian pay him. If they took the opportunity to praise his generosity, they could pretend that the whole thing never happened.

Chen Tianming's lips curled up. Did they still think he was the same foolish sucker back then? 

Since Duan Fei went through so much trouble, it would be impolite not to make a move.

Chen Tianming expressed deep sorrow, "I didn't expect Lianlian to reimburse me in the first place, but thanks to you, Duan Fei, I now know how you see me in your heart." 

Just when Duan Fei thought he was going to say, "Forget about the compensation," Chen Tianming changed course and said with a smile, "Since that's the case; Lianlian, the original price of this vase is 3.6 million yuan. As our families are close friends, you only have to pay me 3 million."

"Initially, I didn't want you to repay me, but I couldn't disappoint Duan Fei's expectations."

Chen Tianming crossed his arms and smiled at them.
