I Don’t Want To Be A Villain - Chapter 11

After the New Year, Tang Mingxi’s friends started contacting him one after another.

As the most pretentious rich second generation in Ningcheng, a VVVVIP user of major luxury brands and private membership residences, he has been silent for more than half a month this year, not showing up at any parties or bars. Is this reasonable?

It was reasonable.

Because in the past half a month, a dignified Second Young Master of the Tang Family has appeared in Ningcheng, who is known to be difficult to deal with, arrogant and domineering.

He trained wholeheartedly in the swimming pool. If it weren’t for his age, who wouldn’t say that he was aiming to participate in the Olympics to win glory for his country?

After swimming two laps, Tang Mingxi dived out of the water and leaned against the side of the swimming pool. He asked the coach, “How was it?”

The coach gave a lot of encouragement. “Not bad. You’re very talented and you work harder than others! ”

Tang Mingxi was elated when he heard this flattery. He thought to himself that swimming was not as hard to learn as he had imagined.

It just so happened that Tang Yun had bought him an island. When the time came, he could fly there in advance to practise how to swim in the sea. Wouldn’t escaping from the male lead be a piece of cake?

The coach praised him again. “Handsome, you have such a good figure. Are you a model?”

He wasn’t lying through his teeth. Tang Mingxi had a slender waist and long legs. His skin was as white as snow, and it almost reflected the light in the water. At first, the coach thought that he was a celebrity, but he couldn’t find him online.

Tang Mingxi was so proud of himself that he could not help but suggest to the coach that he wanted to try high-platform diving.

However, as soon as he stood on the springboard, Tang Mingxi looked down and his body stiffened. All of his complacency suddenly disappeared.

Help! Is this a height that a human can jump?!

Tang Mingxi was so scared that his face turned pale. He left the diving platform at the speed of light and temporarily gave up on the idea of practising high platform diving. He obediently held the swimming ring and continued to swim in the pool.

He played in the water gloomily, thinking of the eight zeros in his card and the island that Tang Yun had just bought for him…

I feel like I can try to get close to the male lead again.

Tang Mingxi changed his clothes and walked out of the swimming pool. Now that he was debt-free, he did not need to attend social events every day like in his previous life. Other than worrying about his life, he had nothing to do.

One should not be too arrogant. Just a second ago, he was lamenting that he had nothing to do, and the next second, someone would come looking for trouble.

Tang Mingxi’s phone kept vibrating.

Shen Yuan: [Cousin, do you know that the Qingluo Bay development project has been taken away by that b*tch Tang Yu???]

Shen Yuan: [Didn’t Big Cousin put you in charge of this project? How did it get into his hands?]

Shen Yuan: [F*ck!Damn it, who knows how this villain will show off to me after he succeeds? qvq I’m so angry qvq]

Shen Yuan: [Cousin, I’ve been short of money recently. Can you lend me two million qvq]

Tang Mingxi: [I don’t know you.]

He directly blacklisted him.

Shen Yuan was his aunt’s son and his own cousin. He was also an ignorant and incompetent prodigal son.

He and Tang Mingxi might not have grown up together, but they were birds of a feather. Because of their common enemy, Tang Yu, the two of them were quite close, and Tang Mingxi was too lazy to be courteous with him.

He didn’t have any money, but he did have a life.

After Tang Mingxi blacklisted his noisy cousin, the business Bentley that came to pick him up stopped steadily in front of him.

In order not to be found out that he came out of the swimming pool, Tang Mingxi deliberately walked 500 metres forward.

I’m really tired to death.

Ye Heng got out of the car and opened the door for him.

He hadn’t seen Ye Heng for more than half a month. Why did he feel that Ye Heng seemed to have grown taller?

Seventeen or eighteen years old seemed to be the age when one’s body was growing. Thinking of his own height, Tang Mingxi envied him for a while.

“Shen Yuan just called me and asked to borrow money.” Ye Heng sat down and began to report his work coldly.

“Oh, he called me too.” Tang Mingxi said, “Did he tell you how much he wanted.”

“Five million.”

Tang Mingxi complained and asked, “Did you give him?”

“I don’t have money.” Ye Heng said lightly, “I’m still in debt.”

Tang Mingxi:…

Didn’t I just eat your Western food? Do you have to be so upset? It’s been half a month!

I’ve already increased your pocket money. Are you still not satisfied with what you got?

Tang Mingxi: “Don’t pick up his calls in the future. How did the Qingluo Bay project end up in Tang Yu’s hands? Are you not in charge of it?”

Ye Heng’s eyelashes trembled slightly. He calmly said, “There was a problem with Ming Heng’s evaluation. He didn’t win the bid.”

Who are you lying to!

Tang Mingxi cursed in his heart. I’ve already read the original novel. In another two months, Qingluo Bay will completely be your territory!

Ever since Ningcheng had a new leader, other than supporting the local rich and powerful enterprises, they had also invested a total of thirty billion yuan in foreign investment. Qingluo Bay was an important new energy development area along the coast. Outsiders were eyeing the development rights of Qingluo Bay covetously.

“Oh.” Tang Mingxi was indifferent. He gave a few words of encouragement. “Don’t be discouraged. Work hard next time.”

Ye Heng had expected that he didn’t intend to care about the company’s affairs at all.

It wasn’t that Tang Mingxi didn’t want to care. In his previous life, he had suddenly died while drinking with a client. The consequence of working hard was to be reincarnated. Who would want to be a social animal?

“There’s a celebration banquet arranged by Uncle tonight. We still have two hours to prepare.”

“Celebration banquet?”

Oh, right. Tang Yu, that brat, finally got such a big project from me. Tang Youwei is proud, so of course he has to show off.

Ye Heng: “You don’t have to go.”

When he said this, Ye Heng paused for a moment.

This project was stolen from Tang Mingxi’s hands by Tang Yu. He would definitely make things difficult for him tonight.

But this didn’t seem to have anything to do with him. Ye Heng regretted his quick mouth.

“I’ll go. Why wouldn’t I go?” Tang Mingxi’s eyes lit up.

If he didn’t go, how could he watch Tang Yu’s excitement? As a loyal reader who knew the original novel by heart, he would never get tired of watching tonight’s classic scene of the male lead slapping the face of cannon fodder.

Tang Yu didn’t even have the cooperation contract with Qingluo Bay. The person in charge of Qingluo Bay had sent someone to inform the Tang family and confirmed that the contract would be signed with the Tang family in seven days. But, he didn’t specify whether it would be Tang Yu or Tang Mingxi.

However, Tang Yu was passionately in love with Wang Min, the daughter of the person in charge of Qingluo Bay. When he called the Tang family, Tang Yu immediately tacitly agreed that he was the one who had signed the contract.

Tang Mingxi knew very well that Ye Heng was the one who got the contract with Qingluo Bay.

In the original novel, the person in charge of Ningcheng’s political circle already knew his identity as the young master of the Ye family and directly gave him a favour.

Everyone in the political circle knew about the background of the Ye family in Yunjing. It was normal for the top leader in Ningcheng wanted to show his face in front of Ye Heng. In the future, Ye Heng would have to mention a few words to that person before he would be promoted step by step.

But he didn’t expect that this favour would be shamelessly claimed by Tang Yu.

Although Tang Mingxi wanted to complain that the bid evaluation supervision team of the land and resources department was just for show, he remembered that this novel didn’t have any logic.

Thinking of the banquet tonight, Tang Mingxi suddenly remembered that he had nowhere to spend the eight zeros.

Since he had this money, he really couldn’t find anyone to show off his wealth.

Now the opportunity had come.

Before the Bentley drove to the hotel booked by Tang Yu, Tang Mingxi hurriedly took Ye Heng back to Mingxi No.1.

Mingxi No.1 Mansion was located on Nanyang Road, where every inch of land was expensive. It was quiet and surrounded by water. It was an gift given to him by his grandfather when he was 18 years old. It was rated as the first of the top ten mansions in Ningcheng Daily.

After getting engaged to Ye Heng, the two have been living here.

Ye Heng was a little confused by Tang Mingxi’s sudden enthusiasm.

After getting out of the car, Tang Mingxi didn’t wait for him to open the door. Instead, he grabbed his wrist and took him excitedly to Mingxi No.1.

He seemed to be a little impatient.

Ye Heng’s gaze fell on Tang Mingxi’s hand that was holding his wrist. The back of his hand was white, but his palm was warm.

He didn’t speak, and his face remained indifferent. His feather-like eyelashes covered the young man’s deep gaze.

When they arrived at the gate, Tang Mingxi realised that he was too excited and didn’t notice that he was holding the male protagonist hand!

Sure enough, money makes people arrogant.

Tang Mingxi coughed dryly and naturally let go of Ye Heng, pretending that nothing had happened.

He clapped his hands. Suddenly, more than ten styling teams carrying bags and boxes appeared at the gate of Mingxi No.1.

The leader was Auntie Wang.

Ye Heng was speechless.

“What do you want?”

Tang Mingxi sat on the leather sofa in the living room like a young master with his legs crossed.

From this angle, he has a soft waist and long legs. He sank into the sofa like a piece of soft candy wrapped in honey.

“Of course I want to attend the banquet.”
Tang Mingxi raised his chin slightly and said arrogantly, “I want to be the most handsome man at the banquet tonight.”

Actually, he wanted to show off his wealth.

The styling team filed in and began to select a suit for Tang Mingxi. The two doors opened and a huge walk-in closet appeared in front of them. There were all kinds of fancy shoes, bags, clothes and accessories. The light refracted by the wristwatches was almost blinding.

Tang Mingxi thought with satisfaction, I am so rich. How can I only let myself know that I am so rich?

Thanks to Tang Mingxi, Ye Heng was also pressed down on the sofa and tortured from beginning to end.

He listened to Tang Mingxi’s mouth that hadn’t stopped since he walked in. He spent a long time being picky about where to put every strand of hair.

A hint of impatience flashed across Ye Heng’s eyes. He mocked in his heart, Whoever marries this useless prodigal will have eight lifetimes of bad luck. Black smoke will rise from their ancestors’ graves.

Two hours later, Second Young Master Tang was finally satisfied with his outfit that had “I am super expensive” written all over it.

The suit was custom-made by Kidon for Tang Mingxi that season. It had a Patek Philippe sapphire and a 15-carat gemstone collar clip of the same color as his watch. His skin was fair, and the gemstones made him look even more elegant.

Even Ye Heng, who had always looked down on him, had to admit that if the Tang family went bankrupt, many men would fight over this piece of trash if he became a vase.

Tang Mingxi looked at himself in the mirror for a while and couldn’t help but sigh. I’m too good-looking. Whoever marries me must have been blessed by their ancestors. TvT.

Tang Mingxi’s charm and his vanity as a man were finally satisfied at the celebration banquet.

At the entrance of the Blue City Hotel, a low-key and luxurious Maybach slowly drove over. The door was opened by a bodyguard, and a beauty with a slender waist and long legs stepped out.

As soon as he appeared, he stole the limelight and the attention of most of the media and socialites at the celebration banquet.

Tang Mingxi was especially satisfied with his flashy entrance. Although he was a little smug, he still maintained the cold and elegant expression of a second young master.

The media reporters had been waiting at the entrance for a long time. When they saw the man who was shining with the halo of a main character, they immediately treated him as the main character of the night, Tang Yu.

The microphones were handed over, and compliments were thrown at Tang Mingxi like flowing water.

“Young Master Tang is really young and promising!”

“He’s a talent. No wonder he’s the representative of the new generation of young talents in Ningcheng.”

“Young Master Tang, do you have any plans for the future development of Qingluo Bay …”

“…”

Tang Mingxi explained, “I’m not Tang Yu.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a Mercedes-Benz stopped at the entrance of the Blue City Hotel. Tang Yu opened the car door and looked at Tang Mingxi furiously. “Tang Mingxi!”

Tang Mingxi’s expression didn’t change. He said calmly, “Cousin, the reporters you found have bad eyesight.”

The reporters looked embarrassed as if they had mistaken him for someone else.

Tang Yu felt a lump in his throat. A slim woman got out of the Mercedes-Benz and held Tang Yu’s arm. She chuckled. “Brother Yu, is this the cousin you mentioned who married a man?”
