Chapter 29 Seventy Percen
"Don't you dare touch me!" Lu Xinyi hissed as she slaps his hand, causing the man to let go of the bottle. A loud crash echoed inside the small apartment.
"Aiyo… she wants to fight." The assistant librarian said. "I remember she also fought when her brother tried to grab her. Do you think… this is her fetish?"
"You're making me puke! You disgusting pigs!"
"Ahhh… such energy. Maybe she just wants us to release the pig?" the other man replied. "Then… we should just release it, no?"
"No— Don't!" Lu Xinyi changed her tone almost immediately. "Don't… I can give you money! I have cash! I can give you cash! How much do you want?"
"Money?" the lecherous library assistant sneered. "How about… we enjoy each other first. Then we'll talk about the money."
"Come on! Don't be shy! Just think of this as…"
*BANG*
When the guard rushed inside, he immediately pointed his gun to the two men and shot without hesitation. After all, Lu Xinyi had already told him to kill these people. She told him that her parents will take care of everything— like they always do.
The two immediately fell on the floor with a loud thud. Their eyes were widened in disbelief. The two never thought that Lu Xinyi would really dare have someone kill them without concern about the video.
"Are they— "
"No pulse." The Guard said after checking their carotid arteries. With Lu Xinyi's instructions, the guard called a specific number and introduced himself as one of the trusted guards of the Lu Family. The number belongs to a special 'cleaning' company that takes care of the messes that only the rich make.
This is the original reason why Lu Xinyi had been so brave to even come here tonight. She knew that these two would not be able to touch her. After making sure that she didn't forget any electronics they had, Lu Xinyi went out with a satisfactory smile on her face. With the electronics that she had, she was confident that their people would be able to trace the person who started spreading her videos.
'That person deserves to die' she thought as she opened her phone which had a huge crack on its screen. She decided to call her parents and 'inform' them that someone wanted to frame her for her grades and that she was forced to deal with it with the service of the cleaners. That way, she would have the praises of her parents for being capable enough to deal with her problems without needing their help.
When she saw her best friend calling her, Lu Xinyi immediately answered her. "Hey," she forced herself to remain calm. The adrenaline from earlier was still pumping in her blood.
"Xinyi! Where are you? Have you seen the forums already?"
The mention of the forums made her frown. "No… what is it? Did something happen?" Her heart started drumming against her chest. Was it her video? But… she had already paid everyone who sent her a message. She shook her head in denial.
"Xinyi… a video was posted just minutes ago. I tried calling you multiple times earlier. Its a video of you in your underwear with… with your elder brother. Right now… I can see that at least a hundred people had already downloaded the video and…."
The rest of her friend's words turned to static in her ears. Lu Xinyi dropped the laptop and other electronics that she was holding. Her face turned so pale, it was deathly. It was as if her mind had stopped working, her throat became parched.
"Xinyi! Are you listening to me? I said, its view count is almost five thousand now and people are already sharing it online! What are we going to do now?"
......
In the meantime, Li Yue was beaming as she watched the video's views increase every passing second. She then logged out of the dummy account and made sure to delete every trace of it on her laptop. The laptop had been with her for almost two years now, so she decided it was time to clean it. After that, Li Yu decided to take some precautionary measures and wiped her laptop clean. Of course, her files were safe in her tablet and cloud account. There is no need to worry about it anymore.
However, since Li Yue is not really an expert on computers, she decided to take one step further to ensure her safety and sell her laptop online to buy a new one. She was going to buy a new phone anyway, so it would not be too strange for her to also buy a new laptop. After all, kids in their school always change their laptops every time a new model comes out. With the money that Mo Li was planning to pay here, Li Yue could buy a high-performance laptop that she could use for her studies in her future art school.
'Robot, can you show me the progress of my side quests?'
[Side Quest: Make Lu Xinyi suffer. Progress: Seventy percent.]
Li Yue nodded when she saw the thin interface displayed in front of her. 'This is….'

'Eh? Why is my luck stat negative?'
[Host is not lucky.]
"…"
"Heh… Nevermind that! Who needs luck when I am so hardworking and smart?" Li Yue is already satisfied with her current stats. This world is giving her a good time but she considers this a learning curve. After all, this was the first mission that she had actually taken seriously.
[You only took this seriously because this is your last chance.] the robot reminded her. However, Li Yue was in such a good mood that the robot's words didn't dampen her happiness at all. She is about to ruin Lu Xinyi and make her suffer! 'Wait… why is the progress not increasing? I thought it will increase over time?' she frowned and immediately decided to use another account to open the forum.
"So… that's how it is." The school must have already deleted the video as there were no traces of it on the forums already. "Too quick." As expected of someone influential. However, did Lu Xinyi think that Li Yue will stop now?
In her dreams!
