Engagement Annulled? Now The Husbands Kneel and Beg for Her Favor

Scolded coldly by the girl, Bai Yiyi’s expression stiffened.

She timidly raised her eyes, acting as if she had just noticed the person in the back seat, and whispered, "Sister Qingli."

Then her gaze fell on Qin Muye, who was covering his face, and her tone softened. "Brother-in-law."

Jiang Qingli raised an eyebrow. The still-dazed Qin Muye immediately snapped back to his senses. "Who’s your brother-in-law? Get lost."

He said that, but Bai Yiyi noticed his voice was softer than last time, and his face was flushed red.

’It dawned on her. He’s just shy.’

Bai Yiyi was secretly delighted but kept a straight face, pursing her lips. "Sister Qingli, don’t blame Yi Nuo. It was my fault for being careless..."

After saying that, she turned to comfort Yi Nuo. "It’s okay, Yi Nuo. Sister Qingli won’t blame you. I’ll take full responsibility."

Jiang Qingli: "..."

’Is this the predetermined fate of a cannon fodder character?’

’Whenever the protagonist needs it, I have to show up and serve as a foil, my own wickedness highlighting her delicate, flower-like innocence and kindness.’

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.

A knock came from the other window.

A traffic inspector in a black uniform walked over. "Are these two flying vehicles yours? I’ll need the owners to cooperate with our work. Please come over to review the surveillance footage and sign off."

Their flying vehicles were already parked on the roadside. There was an inspection room nearby, and the traffic inspector led the two of them inside to watch the surveillance feed.

The footage clearly showed Bai Yiyi’s flying vehicle suddenly changing direction and ramming into them, making her completely at fault.

The traffic inspector issued a report and had them sign it after confirming the details.

After Jiang Qingli signed her name, the traffic inspector handed the report to Bai Yiyi.

Bai Yiyi’s eyes lingered on the elegant handwriting for a moment before she discreetly breathed a sigh of relief.

She had seen Jiang Qingli’s handwriting before, and it looked exactly the same as it did now.

Bai Yiyi had previously worried that Jiang Qingli was still alive because someone else had transmigrated here just like her. Now, it seemed she had been overthinking things.

’She was the only chosen one, the lucky one, in this world.’

’Jiang Qingli was still the same old Jiang Qingli—a stupid, vicious cannon fodder.’

’It was just a small mistake on her part that created a butterfly effect, allowing Jiang Qingli to survive.’

The five Beast Husbands had signed a decree not to harm Jiang Qingli, but that was fine. She could just capture the hearts of others and use them to get rid of Jiang Qingli.

With this in mind, Bai Yiyi was smiling with particular delight as she handed the report back to the traffic inspector.

After watching the traffic inspector leave, Bai Yiyi turned to the girl beside her.

"Sister Qingli." Now certain of her status as the protagonist, Bai Yiyi smiled condescendingly. "Actually, it’s useless no matter how much you try to suck up to them."

"Don’t forget, all the males you like will end up liking me."

Jiang Qingli smiled back. Walking over to the flying vehicle, she suddenly kicked Bai Yiyi squarely in the shin.

The move was so fast that Bai Yiyi was caught completely off guard and fell to the ground, face-planting hard.

"Ah..."

Bai Yiyi cried out in pain. The delicate skin she had exchanged for points in her system immediately turned a large patch of red.

"Are you crazy, Jiang Qingli?" Bai Yiyi’s eyes went wide, her body trembling with anger. "Believe it or not, I’m telling my aunt—"

"Why are you so angry?" Jiang Qingli blinked innocently. "I was just stretching my leg. Sorry, maybe you’re just so annoying that my leg couldn’t help itself..."

As she spoke, Bai Yiyi caught sight of Yi Nuo and Qin Muye hurrying toward them out of the corner of her eye and immediately changed her expression.

"Are you okay?" Qin Muye asked.

Hearing this, Bai Yiyi pursed her lips, and her eyes quickly reddened.

She lowered her head, revealing her swan-like neck, and said pitifully, "I’m fine. Don’t blame Sister Qingli. I was just being clumsy..."

As she finished, she casually turned her wrist over, revealing a scraped and reddened patch of skin.

However, after waiting for a long moment, no one came to help her up.

She looked up, only to see both males crowded around Jiang Qingli.

Yi Nuo, the very person she had just tried to turn into an "accomplice," was pulling a handkerchief from his pocket and about to squat down.

"Miss, your shoe is dirty. Allow me to wipe it for you..."

He was cut off by Qin Muye before he could finish. "Just go fly your vehicle and stop wasting time."

The snow leopard youth’s hand brushed almost imperceptibly against Jiang Qingli’s waist as he lowered his voice. "Later. I’ll wipe it for you."

"Forgive my bluntness," Yi Nuo said coolly, "but Prince, your handkerchief is already dirty. You used it to wipe off lipstick just now."

"What the hell do you know?" Qin Muye’s ears seemed to turn even redder as he glared at Yi Nuo. "Who says I only have one handkerchief?"

"But I usually use a silk handkerchief to wipe the Miss’s shoes..."

They got into the flying vehicle without once looking back at the person sprawled on the ground.

Bai Yiyi sat there in a daze, feeling completely bewildered.

She shakily got to her feet and tried to approach them, only to suddenly lock eyes with Qin Muye, who had turned back.

His normally devil-may-care, gray-blue eyes narrowed, filled with a heavy warning.

Bai Yiyi gave him a weak smile, tears of grievance welling in the corners of her eyes.

It was an attempt to awaken the male’s chivalrous instincts.

But Qin Muye just raised an eyebrow and gave her the middle finger.

The flying vehicle took off. Bai Yiyi cursed a few times in anger, then turned and got into her own vehicle.

She took a few pictures of her injuries to send to the Beast Husbands, then planned to use her Superpower to heal her wounds.

The next second, however, the system seemed to finally react, sounding an alarm—

[DING!]

[Target ’Qin Muye’s’ Favorability has decreased by 10. Punishing Host with Beauty Value -4! Charm Value -4!]

[Healing Ability disabled for 24 hours!]

Hearing this, Bai Yiyi panicked instantly. [What’s going on?! Why did it take away my Superpower?!]

The system’s voice was ice-cold: [Host, I have already reminded you. If you continue to maintain a negative score, the penalty will be doubled.]

[Your Superpower and appearance are effects produced by items purchased from the mall. The penalty deducts those items, so the Superpower is naturally disabled.]

The color drained from Bai Yiyi’s face.

But the Beast Husbands’ pollution levels had been stable recently, so she didn’t need her Superpower. One day wouldn’t be a problem.

[It’s not all bad news,] Bai Yiyi muttered to herself. [At least Yi Nuo didn’t dock my favorability. Does that mean he... feels something for me...]

System: [That is not the case. The system has not yet been upgraded, so favorability can only fluctuate within a range of 100 points.]

[In other words, Host, Yi Nuo’s favorability toward you is already at the lowest possible value. There is no room for it to decrease further.]

Bai Yiyi: "..."

Bai Yiyi was so angry her ears were ringing. She slammed her fist on the control panel and cursed, "That bitch! Just you wait!"

-

The morning theory class was a large lecture for students from three different academic years.

Qin Muye swaggered in behind Jiang Qingli and casually sat down next to her, causing the people sitting nearby to scatter instantly.

Lin Xiyue, who was sitting next to Jiang Qingli, was also trying to make herself as small as possible. She only dared to ask via her terminal: [Qingli, did you piss him off? Why does he look so unhappy?]

Jiang Qingli typed back: [I didn’t. He’s just naturally flammable.]

Lin Xiyue wanted to laugh but didn’t dare.

Jiang Qingli’s lips curled into a slight smile. She looked up and found Qin Muye staring at her intently.

To be precise, he was staring at her lips, his Adam’s apple bobbing slightly.

Ever since she saw Qin Muye’s beast form, Jiang Qingli found herself thinking he was more and more like a large pet.

The kind you couldn’t help but want to tease.

Jiang Qingli cleared her throat and said, "Pay attention to the lecture. Don’t embarrass me."

Qin Muye grunted in agreement and reluctantly tore his gaze away, turning to look at the electronic screen.

The professor at the podium happened to turn around to ask a question and was so shocked to see the Prince actually paying attention for once that he forgot what he was going to say.

Qin Muye spent the entire class period resting his chin on his hand, utterly bored.

During the break, Lin Xiyue grew a bit bolder and leaned over to talk to Jiang Qingli.

Qin Muye picked up Jiang Qingli’s textbook and started flipping through it, but he wasn’t reading a single word. His eyes kept darting back to the girl’s red lips.

He couldn’t help but recall their warmth from before.

Suddenly, his terminal vibrated twice.

Qin Muye assumed it was one of his good-for-nothing friends messaging him again and irritably opened it.

But when he saw the content, he nearly threw the terminal out the window.

On the chat screen, Jiang Qingli had sent him a message—

[Hey, didn’t you say you didn’t want my saliva?]
