I Was Supposed to Be the Villainess, Now You're Telling Me I'm the Female Lead? - Chapter 4

Chapter 4: Program Error, Correct Result

***

Holding a small white package in her arms, half-lying in the car, with a strange blush on her face, although her head still hurt a little, Nan Zha couldn’t help but smile at the corner of her mouth.

Although tonight’s events had some mishaps, the result was almost exactly what she had expected, and could even be said to have exceeded her expectations.

“What exactly happened tonight?”

The voice from beside her made Nan Zha open her eyes, turning her gaze to the driver’s seat.

Sitting in the driver’s seat was her best friend, Xia Zhichu, wearing a black hoodie with her hair in a high ponytail. She had delicate features and a slender figure, currently looking straight ahead while driving seriously.

“I’m not really sure either. Today I felt like I was possessed or something, I even forgot which cup I put the drug in.”

“Ha, you actually made such a basic mistake!?”

Xia Zhichu glanced at Nan Zha in surprise, continuing to speak, “So how did you handle it afterwards? And what exactly happened?”

“Since I didn’t know, I just drugged both cups. Although there were problems with the process, the result was fine. But my head is a bit foggy right now, so I won’t talk about it for now.”

“You… forget it.”

Xia Zhichu seemed already accustomed to Nan Zha’s behavior, rolling her eyes at her with some helplessness.

“I thought you were just joking before when you said you liked girls, but it turns out you really do like girls.”

She had been with Nan Zha for over 10 years, they were childhood friends. Nan Zha had been very smart since childhood with excellent grades, but for some reason, her personality had always been cold and distant. She didn’t have many friends around her, and except for Xia Zhichu who could talk to her, very few people could exchange more than a few words with Nan Zha.

She had jokingly asked before if Nan Zha liked girls, but unexpectedly it had actually come true now.

“It’s not that I like girls, it’s just that the person I like happens to be a girl.”

Recalling tonight’s events, Nan Zha’s mouth curved up slightly.

She hadn’t expected that Bai Ning would have such a side to her.

Touching her own lips, she unconsciously licked them, as if the previous sensation was still there.

Actually, tonight’s plan was very simple: drug her, then take advantage of Bai Ning being unconscious to do things she normally couldn’t do.

When she discovered she had forgotten which cup she drugged, before losing consciousness, she had thought the plan had failed. But when she woke up, she found that Bai Ning had actually taken the initiative to hold her head down, clinging to her like an octopus and kissing her. She even felt like she could barely breathe.

And after being discovered, that panicked expression wanting to escape was so cute too.

Thinking back to how Bai Ning usually looked so gentle and weak, like a harmless little white rabbit.

But unexpectedly, when the little white rabbit seized the opportunity, she was even more proactive than herself, this big bad wolf.

If she hadn’t woken up early tonight, she might still be unclear about Bai Ning’s feelings toward her.

When the plan failed, she had felt like her future was completely dark, but unexpectedly it had given her a surprise.

Nan Zha’s current mood was like when you don’t observe your surroundings before taking off, and end up being seen by someone you like. It should have been an embarrassing and devastating scene, but instead the person you like came to help you take off, that kind of surprised and comfortable feeling.

After several months of observation, Nan Zha had now reached a conclusion:

Bai Ning very likely liked her.

This conclusion was well-founded. Bai Ning had met her at a banquet a few months ago, and it was Bai Ning who had actively approached her. Nan Zha still remembered how she felt at that time.

Bai Ning was very cute, and many people would have a good first impression of her.

But Nan Zha’s feeling at the time was very special, a wonderful sensation of liking and disliking layered together.

Over the months of contact, Bai Ning’s occasional acting cute, meticulous care, bringing her food every day, and waiting for her to get off work at the company.

This series of things were clearly very ordinary, her other pursuers did these things too. But somehow, Nan Zha had inexplicable emotions toward Bai Ning, until one day she discovered that her feelings for Bai Ning had also shifted to liking outweighing dislike.

Although what Bai Ning had done these past months moved Nan Zha, she always felt their progress was too slow. Bai Ning was still too shy, and she herself couldn’t bring herself to confess first, so they remained at a standstill.

Tonight’s plan was also devised by Xia Zhichu. Originally Nan Zha was unwilling to do this, she actually wanted to use other, gentler methods.

But when she saw Bai Ning a few days ago holding hands with another very beautiful girl, talking and laughing together, she felt an unprecedented sense of crisis, so she implemented Xia Zhichu’s suggestion.

The plan had been realized in a strange way, and Nan Zha was in a very good mood now.

She felt that after this incident, Bai Ning would definitely take the initiative to confess to her. She just needed to wait for this opportunity and could naturally accept it, then the two of them could live happily together.

She just needed to create some opportunities now, but recently didn’t seem feasible. As the company’s CEO, the company was currently in the important stage of going public. She temporarily couldn’t spare the time, and she also needed to find a reason to explain why Bai Ning could fall asleep just from drinking tea.

Holding her phone, looking at her recent schedule packed full, her delicate face showed a pained expression.

“I can only wait until next week, but the excuse is still easy to find.”

She murmured quietly, her face showing a helpless expression.

She had already waited several months, she wasn’t in a hurry for these few days.

Opening her special contacts, finding the only contact person, Nan Zha’s face couldn’t help but show a smile, her fingers rapidly tapping on the screen.

After sending the message, the other party didn’t reply immediately. Nan Zha wasn’t anxious either, putting down her phone and closing her eyes to rest against the seat.

She was really quite tired, and felt like the drug’s effects hadn’t completely worn off, she still felt foggy all over.

“Just how much did you put in?”

Looking at Nan Zha who had been lying down almost the entire time, Xia Zhichu felt somewhat speechless.

“However much you gave me, that’s how much I put in.”

Leaning against the seat, Nan Zha’s somewhat weak voice came over.

Hearing this, Xia Zhichu’s eyes widened, her mouth slightly open with an incredulous expression.

“What?”

“I remember telling you, right? That was a triple dose, and you poured it all in at once?”

“Well, I made a mistake, didn’t I? I was afraid the dosage wouldn’t be enough, so I just put two doses in one cup and one dose in the other.”

Nan Zha was quite unlucky, she estimated she had drunk the cup with two doses, otherwise she couldn’t have woken up later than Bai Ning. Fortunately, the final result was still good.

“You…”

Hearing Nan Zha’s absurd operation, Xia Zhichu opened her mouth, wanting to speak but stopping.

“Awesome 👍🏻”
