Terminally Ill Female Lead Of An Angst Novel Went Rampant After Her Awakening

Chapter 3

She got out of bed and sat in front of the window for the whole night.

The system couldn’t help but ask, [Are you thinking about how to deal with Lu Shiyuan?]

Now that its trump card had been exposed by Lin Shanchu, it simply gave up and no longer forced her to follow the original plot.

After all, even if it forced Lin Shanchu to follow the original plot, she would not listen to it.

It was impossible to repair the host’s sadistic female lead persona.

It could only take a step back and hope for a happy ending.

As for the rest, it would be fine as long as the host was pleased.

Lin Shanchu asked, “Can’t I just kill Lu Shiyuan?”

[Murder is illegal,] the system replied.

Lin Shanchu huffed. “I didn’t know you were such a law-abiding idiot.”

The system was speechless.

In addition to being a scumbag, Lu Shiyuan was also a hot upstart in the business world. He could do whatever he wanted in Xu City.

Lin Shanchu had neither power nor influence. If she wanted to fight with Lu Shiyuan, it would be like an ant trying to shake a tree by itself.

Even if she were to fight Lu Shiyuan with everything she got, her sickly condition would only contribute to her being massacred.

She was definitely the most miserable character in the entire book.

It was indeed a melodramatic novel without any ethics.

Not only did she want to kill Lu Shiyuan, but she also wanted to kill the author.

[Murder is illegal,] the system reminded.

Lin Shanchu retorted, “I was just thinking about it!”

She was better off going out to eat something in order to survive. Then, she can continue thinking about it.

She walked to the door and opened it.

The system screamed, [Don’t open the door! Lu Shiyuan is outside!]

But it was too late.

Lin Shanchu had already opened the door.

When she saw Lu Shiyuan standing outside the door, she quivered and tried to close the door with all her might.

Lu Shiyuan was already prepared. He pushed the door open easily and Lin Shanchu fell to the ground. The phone in her pocket also fell out.

She hurriedly went to pick up her phone.

Lu Shiyuan walked forward and pressed on.

“Lin Shanchu, I’ve really underestimated you. You even dare to seduce other men to help you!”

Lin Shanchu clutched her phone tightly and sneered at Lu Shiyuan. “You only dare to lay a hand on your own woman! You can’t even be considered a man!”

Lu Shiyuan was infuriated by her words. He grabbed her neck with a dark expression.”So I’m not considered a man? Then who do you consider a true man? Huo Xunzhou?”

Lin Shanchu’s breathing became difficult. She glared at Lu Shiyuan, her eyes full of hatred.

Seeing this, Lu Shiyuan became even angrier and exerted even more force.

He didn’t notice Lin Shanchu calling the police using the phone that she had hidden behind her back.

Lin Shanchu said with difficulty, “To me… any man on the street… is stronger than you…”

“Lin Shanchu, you have a death wish!” Lu Shiyuan shouted.

Lin Shanchu was on the verge of fainting. She asked the system in her mind, “Are the police here yet?”

The system replied, [They are already downstairs. You have to hold on.]

Lin Shanchu could hear that the system’s mechanical voice was more nervous than usual. “What are you panicking for? I’m the female lead. Female leads never die.”

The system replied, [The police are in the elevator. They’ll be here soon. ]

Lin Shanchu could feel that the system didn’t relax at all despite her comforting words.

She vaguely felt that something was strange.

The system knew that she wouldn’t die, so why was it more nervous than her?

Bam!

The police broke in.

“Raise your hands and don’t move!”

When Lu Shiyuan was held down by the police, he turned to look at Lin Shanchu in disbelief.

She stood there quietly. Her figure was thin, and the crimson strangle marks that looked like bloodstains on her fair neck were unusually eye-catching. She looked so fragile that she could not even withstand a single blow.

However, such a woman dared to resist him.

As the two of them looked at each other, Lin Shanchu’s lips slowly curved into a disdainful arc.

…

After doing an injury assessment, it was verified that Lin Shanchu’s injury didn’t qualify as a minor injury, so she could only mediate with Lu Shiyuan.

When they were about to reach the mediation room, Lin Shanchu stopped in her tracks. “Sir, I need to use the washroom.”

After entering the washroom, Lin Shanchu closed the door of the cubicle and took out her phone.

[What do you want to do?] the system asked.

Lin Shanchu flipped through her phone address book before realizing that she only had the Lu family members’ numbers saved on it.

She fell silent.

The female lead of a sadistic love story didn’t deserve to have friends, huh?

“Help me get the phone numbers of a few reporters.”

Lin Shanchu added without waiting for the system’s response, “You can’t be a good-for-nothing system, right? Can you do such a simple thing?”

The system was confused for two seconds. [Of course!]

It was definitely not a useless system!

Soon, the system looked up a bunch of contact numbers belonging to various reporters.

Lin Shanchu continued to voice out her requests. “Pick a few reporters that have a strong background. Tell them that Lu Shiyuan and I were taken to the police station.”

Lu Shiyuan was the upstart of Xu City’s business world. He was young, promising, and handsome. He may not be in the entertainment industry, but he still received a lot of attention. The paparazzi wanted to keep an eye on him at all times.

By the time the scandal titled “Lu Shiyuan, the top upstart of Xu City, beat up his fiancée” was published, the whole city would be filled with the buzz.

However, Lu Shiyuan was powerful and influential. Even if the ordinary paparazzi had first-hand news, they might not have had the opportunity to report it.

The system tried to persuade her. [Are you really not going to try to follow the plot? You can’t win against Lu Shiyuan.]

Lin Shanchu retorted, “If you want me to live, then shut up.”

When the system heard this, it instantly became obedient and did what Lin Shanchu had instructed.

“Thank you,” Lin Shanchu said.

The system was speechless.

…

Everyone in the mediation room had arrived.

“Ms. Lin, how do you want this matter to be handled?” the lawyer asked.

“I want him to give me financial compensation…” Lin Shanchu looked straight at Lu Shiyuan. When she noticed the contemptuous humor in his eyes, she paused for a moment.

“And an apology.” Lin Shanchu finished her sentence.

Lu Shiyuan’s smile froze on his face.

However, his expression returned to normal quickly.

Lu Shiyuan stared at Lin Shanchu and said in a commanding tone, “Stop fooling around and come home with me.”

Actually, when Lin Shanchu first came to the Lu family at a young age, Lu Shiyuan treated her quite well.

However, the good times did not last long. After Tang Qidai appeared a few years later, Lu Shiyuan changed.

Even if he would occasionally show a trace of gentleness to her, he would quickly turn hostile. After more than a decade, Lin Shanchu’s fear of Lu Shiyuan was engraved in her bones.

If Lu Shiyuan had said such words to her in the past, she would have immediately given in.

This time, Lin Shanchu just ignored his words. “It seems like you’d rather be detained.”

At this time, the system appeared. [If you hate Lu Shiyuan so much, don’t you want him to be detained?]

Lin Shanchu explained, “With Lu Shiyuan’s abilities, even if he’s detained, he’ll be released before tonight.”

Compared to being detained, Lu Shiyuan would feel more humiliated if he were to apologize to her.

The funny thing was that Lu Shiyuan should have apologized to her.

[Then why did you ask him to compensate?] the system asked.

Lin Shanchu said, “I’m short of money.”

She checked her account last night and found out that she only had 200 dollars left. She was pathetically poor.

The system was speechless.

Lu Shiyuan looked at Lin Shanchu in shock and wondered if he had heard her wrongly.
