Lu Yue’s body was indeed very beautiful. There were no traces of fat on his body, and his muscles were smooth and firm. He did a good job exercising to maintain his figure. As a playboy, he still has a lot of capital.

Tong Ling naturally expressed what she found attractive, and the praise given to Lu Yue was naturally indispensable.  She was always on point, and even Lu Yue, a man who has heard many good things from many women, became inexplicably excited when praised by the woman he likes.

Praises sung by different people sound completely different. In this regard, Lu Yue also had double standards.

The two seem to complement each other in terms of taste and appreciation, and it was very interesting.

Unlike those who have no experience, Lu Yue didn’t need her to teach. Everything was based on her feelings, and with their tacit cooperation,they spent a lot of time together.

After the two chatted, Tong Ling sat lazily on the soft bed in the room, took out the red wine from Ye Huan’s wine cabinet, and watched Lu Yue clean the room while tasting the wine.

“Do you have to make me do this?” He doesn’t blush easily, but being watched by Tong Ling while tidying the house makes Lu Yue feel shameful.

Tong Ling crossed her legs, placed the wine glass in front of her eyes, and admired Lu Yue’s figure through the wine glass with a faint smile on her lips, “Isn’t this very good? Beautiful things should be displayed.”

Lu Yue’s heart skipped a beat after being stared at by Tong Ling. He walked up to her in a few steps, his tone half sweet and half annoyed: “We’ve been chatting for so long. Don’t you think that it was not enough?”     

As Lu Yue spoke, he wanted to hug Tong Ling. Tong Ling used her hand to stop his movement and hooked her fingers to signal Lu Yue to lower his head.

Lu Yue bent down, following Tong Ling’s wishes.     

“Your face is also very good looking.” Tong Ling said in a wicked way, “Close your eyes.”

Her fingers stained with red wine, gently scraped Lu Yue’s face.

Lu Yue closed his eyes subconsciously, and then felt a moist touch on his cheeks.

His eyelashes couldn’t help trembling, his heart softened by this gentle treatment, and finally, he placed his hands on Tong Ling’s side, half kneeling in front of Tong Ling as if drunk and even his breathing slowed down.

When Tong Ling left, Lu Yue was still a little unresponsive.

He only felt his cheek being patted lightly, and the woman’s voice was so sweet: “Okay, here’s the reward. Now clean up the house.”

Lu Yue opened his eyes and saw the woman swaying away from him, covering her lips with her slender fingers, and yawning sleepily.

Lu Yue stared blankly at the woman’s back as she left, with a deep fascination in his eyes.

When he found out what kind of posture he had while facing Tong Ling, he couldn’t help but regret that he had failed to manage his image well.

He used the fastest speed to clean up the traces he left in the room. When he noticed the unfinished glass of red wine left on the table by Tong Ling, he raised the glass and placed his lips on the lip mark she had left.

On the other hand, Tong Ling, who was going to her room to rest, always felt that something was missing.

She thought about it carefully and suddenly realized that something was wrong. She tapped the system in her mind and asked actively, “Little M, what’s wrong with you? Aren’t you too quiet today?”

When Tong Ling and Song Xingyi were playing games before, the system was very noisy, but today with Lu Yue, it stopped talking.

“Could it be a malfunction?” Tong Ling muttered.

M577 suddenly said: 【I’m fine! 】

“Oh, you’re fine, I’m not used to you being so quiet.”

M577 chuckled: 【Thank you for still thinking about me. If you can give up this kind of entertainment, I will be happier!】

【My heart has been polluted.】 M577’s entire system exudes the brilliance of Buddhism, 【Maybe there will be no sorrow or joy in this life.】

Accompanied by the system’s nagging, Tong Ling fell into a comfortable sleep.

Early the next morning, as soon as Tong Ling got up and walked out of the room, Lu Yue greeted her with a smile on his face.

“Lingling, I made you breakfast, do you want to try it?” Lu Yue stayed up all night and started working early in the morning. He was dressed in homely clothes. Without those coquettish and extravagant attires, he exuded a strange feeling of warmness.

Lu Yue knew he had an unstable temperament in the past, and it was difficult for him to give women a sense of security. Since he had set his mind on Tong Ling, he had been slowly changing himself. However, Tong Ling didn’t seem to notice his changes. He thought maybe his performance was not obvious enough, so he decided to change his style, wondering if that could attract Tong Ling’s attention.

At this moment, Tong Ling looked at Lu Yue with a frown.

“What the hell are you doing?” Tong Ling’s eyebrows and eyes were full of disgust. “Who told you to stay here and dress up like this!”

Lu Yue was startled: “Am I not good-looking like this?”

He deliberately took a look in the mirror, with his face, he can wear anything.

“You don’t suit this style.” Tong Ling was too lazy to talk to Lu Yue. She drove him away, saying, “You should have left after cleaning the room last night. I didn’t agree to you staying overnight.”

Lu Yue’s sweet mood, under Tong Ling’s cold gaze, dissipated entirely.

“I didn’t care about your coming here yesterday without my consent. You can’t do this in the future.” Tong Ling looked at the time and frowned dissatisfied at Lu Yue, who was stunned, and said, “Don’t be stupid, go. What does it look like to be with me dressed like this?”

Lu Yue felt his heart get poured with cold water, freezing it to the bones.

He finally knew what he ignored last night. Tong Ling’s attitude towards him was very gentle, but that kind of tenderness was like treating a readily available toy, and her appreciation of him was limited to his body.

This woman never considered him a partner with whom she could spend the rest of her with.

Lu Yue’s distraction was only for a moment because he already knew what kind of woman Tong Ling was. Even if this attempt failed, he quickly recovered his state; his tense body suddenly slacked off, and he complained : “Aren’t you being too unreasonable? I have cooked for you. Can’t you eat it for my sake?”

Seeing that Lu Yue’s expression returned to normal, the expression on Tong Ling’s face eased, ” Okay, I’ll give you the honor; don’t waste time, change your clothes, and go downstairs.”

“By the way, remember to dry Ye Huan’s pajamas. He likes that set quite a bit, so don’t be too rough with it.”

Lu Yue replied softly, “Okay.”

【Tsk tsk. The expression in Lu Yue’s eyes—that disappointment. 】M577 strongly condemned Tong Ling’s scumbag behavior :【Do you know what your kind is? You action is called acting clean and denying all responsibility!  】

Tong Ling said angrily, “Am I to blame for this? Who knows what he’s going to do? It was consensual; everyone got what they wanted. If I’m not firm, that’s being irresponsible.”     

“Besides, didn’t he have many lovers in the past? Everyone is just playing around, and I didn’t see him taking it seriously.” Tong Ling curled her lips and said, “It’s boring. If he does these things in the future, I won’t look for him again.”

M577 has nothing to say to his host.

After all, Lu Yue was a mature man. Once his mentality adjusts, he will be no different from usual.     

The two sat at the table, eating quietly like a pair of ordinary friends.

It just so happened that at this time, the door of the villa opened, and Ye Huan, who had worked overnight at the company, came back suddenly.

Tong Ling couldn’t help but glare at Lu Yue disgruntledly. If this guy hadn’t dawdled and didn’t want to leave, he wouldn’t have bumped into Ye Huan.

Ye Huan was a little surprised by Lu Yue’s arrival. “Why are you here?”

“I can’t come here?” Lu Yue was not guilty that he even complained to Ye Huan: “Are you still my buddy? Have you had the time to meet me recently,I wouldn’t have visited Lingling.”

Lu Yue acted like someone who couldn’t get in touch with a friend, so he went to the friend’s family member instead. In addition, he was dressed neatly. He and Tong Ling were eating at the dinner table, and nothing was suspicious. Ye Huan didn’t think much, and easily accepted Lu Yue’s reason.     

Ye Huan was not in a hurry to answer Lu Yue; he looked at Tong Ling first, and asked gently, “Did he bother you? If you think he is noisy, I will drive him away.”

After such a long time , Ye Huan had long been used to this cautious way of treating Tong Ling.     

He owed Tong Ling a lot. Ever since that incident at that banquet, it was difficult for Ye Huan to raise his head in front of her.     

His girlfriend was hurt because of his incompetence, and he stopped her from calling the police. He originally agreed to help Tong Ling take revenge on the Song family, but so far, no results have been achieved. Ye Huan was a little breathless under the pressure of this guilt, and even became much more humble in front of Tong Ling.     

“It’s okay. He called and asked where you were, so I let him come here.” Tong Ling and Lu Yue cooperated so tacitly that no one could tell they had intimate contact last night.

What his girlfriend said made Ye Huan feel a little relieved. After all, his girlfriend was very afraid of coming into contact with men after the banquet, and Ye Huan was afraid that Lu Yue’s nonchalant temper would cause trouble for his girlfriend.     

After talking with his girlfriend, Ye Huan turned to look at Lu Yue, “Do you need me?”

Before Lu Yue put down his bowl and chopsticks, Tong Ling had left the dining table, leaving the room for communication between the two men.     

“Take your time, I’ll go back to the room first.” Tong Ling left after speaking as if she had no desire to communicate with others.

Ye Huan stared worriedly at his girlfriend’s figure and let out a sigh.    

Lu Yue was originally unhappy because Tong Ling regarded him as a plaything, but seeing Ye Huan’s appearance, most of that feeling of depression disappeared.

Unlike Ye Huan, who was foolishly deceived, not only can he maintain a relationship with Tong Ling, but he is also the only one who knows Tong Ling’s true identity. This sense of superiority made him feel comfortable, both physically and mentally.

People compare themselves with each other to know whether they are good or bad. Lu Yue immediately forgave Tong Ling’s coldness. People like Ye Huan, who dared not even touch Tong Ling, were far worse than him.

“It seems that your life is not easy.” Lu Yue’s expression was serious, but there was a sense of gloating in his voice.

Ye Huan sat at the table, his whole figure drained of strength, and his words were full of powerlessness. “If you need something, tell me quickly.”

“Only when I need you can I find you? We haven’t seen each other for a long time. Wanna get together?” Lu Yue decided that it would be better today than to choose a date. The earlier the arrangement was made for Yu Yurou and Ye Huan to meet,, the better that Ling Ling could also break up with Ye Huan.

“What kind of gathering? I don’t have time to get together with you.” Ye Huan got a headache when he thought of the company. “Song Xinyi is like a mad dog latching onto me. Whatever projects I have, he has to find a way to get his hands on them. And so is that bastard Ye Xu. I wonder if an insider in the company. He can always catch the loophole!”

“You can’t even deal with that kid, Song Xingyi?” If Ye Huan was the number one enemy in Lu Yue’s heart, then Song Xingyi placed second. Although he mocked Song Xingyi on the surface as just a dog at Yu Ling’s feet, it was undeniable that this dog had the most chances to come into contact with Yu Ling.

A persistent mad dog clinging to Yu Ling; it makes people sick just thinking about it.     

“Song Xingyi is fine; it’s mainly the Song family.” Ye Huan said angrily. “Their family is united, just like Ye Xu, they are very difficult to deal with.”     

Lu Yue rolled his eyes and had an idea in his mind. He said, in a persuasive tone : “They treat you and the Ye family like this; isn’t it just because of a woman? Since it’s just a woman, this matter is easy to solve…..”     

How can Ye Huan not know what they were for? His younger brother likes Yurou, and the young master of the Song family is also the same, but Yurou chose him. How could he send his girlfriend out for such a reason?

Ye Huan’s self-esteem would not allow him to do this, let alone his guilt towards his girlfriend; how could he do such a thing!

“Don’t talk about it; this is absolutely impossible!” Ye Huan refused, and his face towards Lu Yue was also very ugly, “Yurou treats you as a friend, yet you have such an idea. Get out and don’t come here again in the future!”

“Wait, don’t be in a rush to get angry.” Lu Yue hurriedly said. “You and Yurou are both my friends and I would be glad if both of you are doing well. How could it be possible for you to really send Yurou out.”

“Then why are you bringing this up?” Ye Huan still hadn’t calmed down.

“Because I met a woman yesterday.” Lu Yue reminded Ye Huan, “That woman also contacted you…”

“Contacted me…” Ye Huan thought for a while, and the strange phone call flashed in his mind .

“Yurou’s younger sister is really very similar to Yurou.” Lu Yue continued: “You will know when you see her. They are like people who came out of the same mold, and  that woman is very good at imitating. Most people can’t tell who they are.”

Ye Huan suddenly understood what Lu Yue meant, and his mind got shaken immediately.

“Anyway, don’t the young master of the Song family and Ye Xu want women? As long as they think Yurou’s younger sister is Yurou and you send her out, won’t all the troubles be solved?”

Lu Yue’s words were extremely provocative: “Yurou’s younger sister is very greedy. She imitated Yurou’s tone and called you because she wanted to cling to a wealthy family. She came to me too, thinking that my relationship with Yurou was unusual, so she pretended to be Yurou and went to my company. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the people in my company; they all misidentified the person.”     

“The  woman who even wanted to take away the identity of her biological sister should be given to Song Xingyi or Ye Xu, isn’t it just right? She is not the kind of quiet person. She might harm Yurou in the future.”

Lu Yue’s words made Ye Huan ponder deeply. Ye Huan has not forgotten how Miss Yu seduced him on the phone. Yurou must not know that her sister did this behind her back, rather than hurting Yurou, why not…

Seeing Ye Huan’s expression, Lu Yue knew that he had been tricked.

Lu Yue held back his laughter and continued: “It doesn’t matter who you give her to. Just wait to see their dogfight.”

Ye Huan admired Lu Yue’s mind, “That was such an idea!”

“But … How can I make them think that she is Yurou? Bring her with me?”

Lu Yue slapped his finger on the table, “If you want them to believe that she is the real Yurou, then you have to make Yurou accept it.”

“I can think of a way to bring that Miss Yu over here. You act out a play, recognize that woman as Yurou, and break up with Yurou. From now on, you will take that woman out when you participate in social activities. Song Xingyi and Ye Xu will naturally know the news.” Lu Yue reminded him. “It’s just that you can’t tell Yurou about this method. If she knows that you sold her sister, she will not agree with you.”

Ye Huan agreed: “Yes, Yurou is too kind; even if she knows what kind of person her sister is, she would not want me to take advantage of that woman.”

“Wait until you send that Miss Yu out, and then find a way to pacify her gently.” Lu Yue said firmly: “Yurou loves you so much. She will always come back to you.”

After Lu Yue finished speaking, Ye Huan also made a decision in his heart.

The melancholy on Ye Huan’s face was swept away. He raised his hand and patted Lu Yue’s shoulder vigorously: “Everyone around me had praised you for having the most flexible brain. You have helped me a lot this time! “

Lu Yue raised the corner of his mouth and said, “It’s good if I can help you.”

“We are good brothers anyway.”

M577 eavesdropped on the conversation between the two downstairs and simultaneously interpreted and sent the content to Tong Ling.

Tong Ling was amazed when she heard it. Lu Yue was indeed the soberest man in the original plot. Under the premise of agreeing to help her, he made Ye Huan  do such a thing.

She hinted to Lu Yue that Ye Huan would break up after a change of heart, but Ye Huan didn’t know about it. Compared with Lu Yue, Ye Huan couldn’t play with this man at all.

But M577 only felt that the host was scary.

All of Lu Yue’s behavioral trajectories were completed under Tong Ling’s guidance. First, let Lu Yue help her stabilize the identity of “Yu Yurou”, which Lu Yue did, and then find a way to get Lu Yue to make trouble for her to break up with Ye Huan, and this matter was achieved in a short time.

The content in the original plot goes:

——The heroine Yu Yurou returned from studying abroad, and she was very sad when she heard the news from Lu Yue that Ye Huan had raised her younger sister as a substitute. Lu Yue didn’t think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, so he took Yu Yurou to the villa where Ye Huan was raising a substitute. Yu Yurou saw her younger sister and persuaded her not to let go of her self-esteem to become a substitute, leading to a huge argument with the male lead. 

Ye Huan decided to sever ties with the substitute after Yu Yurou’s return. Unexpectedly, Lu Yue would bring Yu Yurou with him that night. Ye Huan chased Yu Yurou out and left Yu Ling where she was, and never went back again. 

The arc of the cannon fodder substitute’s villa plot is over, and the substitute, jealous of the heroine, does all kinds of malicious frame-ups. After being frantically slapped in the face by the male lead and supporting characters, she is finally sent to a mental hospital by the affectionate second male lead Ye Xu. The scene is then completed.     

“Lu Yue is easy to use. With him around, the plot didn’t collapse at all.” Tong Ling sighed, “You can give him an additional drumstick.” 

M577 said tiredly:【The plot didn’t collapse enough? The male protagonist is a green-hat hero*, and the female protagonist will soon embark on the path of a substitute… Abnormal, this plot is too abnormal! 】

*Editor’s note: Wearing a green hat in Chinese saying is your partner cheating on you.

Tong Ling comforted the system with a few words and then waited for the heroine’s arrival with peace of mind.

Lu Yue’s efficiency was very high, and Yu Yurou was brought to the villa that night.

During that time, Tong Ling was chatting with Ye Huan and saw Ye Huan’s eyes flicking toward the door from time to time. When the door knocked, Tong Ling knew it was time to perform.

Ye Huan also entered the state of acting. He glanced at Tong Ling nervously, knowing that his next actions would hurt his girlfriend, but for the sake of their peaceful future, he could only temporarily make her feel wronged.

The door opened, and Yu Yurou rushed in without waiting for Lu Yue to enter.

She saw Yu Ling, who was talking with Ye Huan. Yu Ling had changed so much that she doubted her own eyes.

Yu Ling does look very similar to her; no wonder Ye Huan regards her as a substitute. But compared to being a substitute, what Yu Yurou cared more about was that Yu Ling looks better than her.

Ever since she was a child, Yu Ling had always been the inconspicuous character. If she hadn’t dedicated a little bit of energy and family affection, Yu Ling would not have been able to grow up properly.

As an accessory, how dare she use her face to snatch her boyfriend away?

There were also Jiang Chenrui, Hong Jun and the others, all boasting about Yu Ling; even Lu Yue regards Yu Ling as his fiancée.

How could Yu Yurou not know the purpose of Lu Yue bringing her here? Lu Yue said that he hoped that she and Ye Huan could get back together, but in fact, he wanted to use her to separate the two so that he could take Yu Ling away.

These men were all contacts that she had painstakingly developed, but Yu Ling got them all with only a face similar to hers.

What a bloodsucker she is!

Yu Yurou was very angry, and she was extremely disappointed in Yu Ling: “Xiaoling, what are you doing!”

Tong Ling pretended to be frightened, blinked her eyes and took two trembling steps back.

Ye Huan stepped in front of Tong Ling, and was about to reprimand the woman, but Lu Yue gave him a wink before realizing that he had to play with that woman according to the script.

He held back his displeasure, and said the lines with a surprised face: “Yurou? Is it you? Yurou? You’re back?”

Tong Ling stood behind Ye Huan, tears welling up: “Ye Huan , what are you calling her?”

Ye Huan did not dare to look into Tong Ling’s eyes, saying with difficulty: “I have always liked your sister; you don’t have to lie to me. In my eyes, you are always a substitute…”

“But I am…“

Before Tong Ling finished speaking, Yu Yurou interrupted on the spot: “Xiao Ling, how could you shamelessly act as a substitute? Do you know that Ye Huan is my boyfriend!”

“Ye Huan, do you really want to choose her?” sobbed Tong Ling as her tears flowed more fiercely.

Yu Yurou’s eyes immediately fell on Ye Huan.

Ye Huan nodded with a cold face and said, “I love Yurou.”

After receiving the answer, Yu Yurou felt at ease and became rude to Ye Huan, “Ye Huan, how can you find a substitute? You should find me. Not my sister! You are too much!”

Ye Huan still said dryly: “I’m sorry. I missed you so much that I did this. I have nothing to do with her, and my heart for you has never changed.”

Yu Yurou looked at Yu Ling, then at Ye Huan, stomped her feet, turned around and ran out, “I don’t want to see you any more!”

“Ye Huan, since you chose her, then…” Tong Ling said expressionlessly, “Let’s break up.”

“…I…”

Upon hearing Tong Ling’s mention of breaking up, Ye Huan’s footsteps were firmly stuck in place, and Lu Yue, who was next to him, pushed him out.

Before Ye Huan left, he took a deep look at Tong Ling and said, “In the future… you will understand in the future!” 

After Yu Yurou and Ye Huan disappeared, Lu Yue quickly walked to Tong Ling’s side and embraced her.

“You see, Ye Huan still can’t forget his real girlfriend. As soon as that woman appears, he becomes blind.” Lu Yue whispered in Tong Ling’s ear: “I’m different, no matter who it is, my choice will always be you.”

Tong Ling waved her hand in boredom. “I know, I don’t want that kind of man.”

“Then I’ll arrange for Ye Xu to meet her later?” 

“Okay, let’s meet up sometime.”

M577 looked at the words “the plot was completed’ displayed on the plot detection node device, and praised him as a great guy.

In this play, the male lead, the female lead, the male supporting role and the substitute all cooperated. Everyone completed this play with different intentions. This was truly amazing!

Yu Yurou didn’t run fast; she was waiting for Ye Huan to catch up.

As soon as Ye Huan came, Yu Yurou turned her head awkwardly. If Ye Huan didn’t coax her well, she would not easily expose the matter of the substitute.

While Yu Yurou was waiting for Ye Huan to apologize, the man who just said he loved her changed drastically.

He looked at her with a completely unfamiliar look of disgust, and he opened his mouth and said, “Okay, stop acting.”

“Your acting is horrible. With your standards, you’ll need more practice to deceive everyone.”

Yu Yurou swore in her heart; she felt that her boyfriend’s brain was really broken!
